Chapter 804 The Price of Worry

Soon, after the news of the demons attacking the border of the undead and the rebels attacking the main city of the human race, the response of the undead and the human race also appeared. As for the dwarf battlefield, the response here came immediately. The undead troops and the human troops suddenly separated. The human troops continued to march towards the main city of the dwarves, while the undead troops turned back directly, as if preparing to Returned the same way and left the border of the dwarves.

On the other side, there was news in the human race that King Anthony of the human race suddenly raised the rank of the Duke of Aquitaine to Grand Marshal during the war, the highest military rank in the empire. During the war, he could command all the troops of the human race, including the First Legion and the Fourth Legion. , but the human army did not move significantly. The first legion was still confronting the dwarves, the fourth legion was still in the Hina Sand camp, and the second legion was still heading towards the main city of the dwarves, Molten Iron City. direction forward.

When the news reached the dwarf palace here, the dwarves were really happy. Although the troops of the human race were still advancing towards their main city, the troops of the undead race did retreat. The number has decreased by more than 40,000. If their own reinforcements arrive, the number will be comparable to that of the human race.

"Your Highness, although this is good news, we still have to withdraw from Molten Iron City immediately to buy time for our reinforcements." Prime Minister Treuben said, "According to the usual practice of the human army, Molten Iron City like this They won’t let go of the wealthy city, we’ll check this first to hold them back, and when our army returns to help, it’s time for us to fight back.”

"The prime minister is right." Aoli, the dwarf king, said, "But it's a pity that the civilians in Molten Iron City..."

"Your Highness... if we take the civilians with us, we won't be able to make it in time. The most important thing now is to retreat to the city of Suganda in the south first." Teroben said.

"Hmm..." Aoli looked very sad and nodded. "No matter what, as long as we can wait for the reinforcements to come back, we can repel the troops of the human race. Okay, let's go."

"Yes, Your Highness." All the ministers said together.

In no external. Without even announcing it internally, all the royal family and nobles of the dwarves here suddenly withdrew quietly from Molten Iron City, and secretly went to Soganda City to the south of Molten Iron City. The prime minister Treben stayed with about 500 troops to defend, and the rest of the troops were taken away by King Aoli.

So to be honest, the dwarves here are still a little worried at this time. After all, the human troops are already very close to the main city of the dwarves. If they retreat at this time, if the human troops directly send cavalry troops to intercept, they may be very angry Danger. So while King Aoli retreated, he sent a large number of troops to scout the movements of the human troops, and he was a little surprised by the results of the scouting.

"What? They went to the city of Edrafa?" Aoli couldn't believe his ears when he heard the scout's report.

Edrafa City is a medium-sized city near the main city, and it is also not far from the route of the human army, but in fact, it is not necessary to take this city, because it does not block the human race. The advance route, and basically all the troops in that city were transferred. There is no possibility of troops who want to attack the human race, so there is no need to fight at all.

According to Aoli's idea. At this time, the troops of the human race should go straight to the main city of Molten Iron City. After all, there is the key. What is the situation of going to fight against the city of Adrafal? What are you thinking.

"Your Highness. It seems that the greed of the human race is beyond our imagination." A minister who escaped with him said, "They wanted to loot all our things, so they went to Adrafa City, but they I didn't know that we had already fled secretly, but now is our chance."

"Hmm..." Aoli nodded. There is really no way to explain the behavior of the human race. We can only think that the human race is robbing things. It is estimated that their commander thinks that there are no troops in Molten Iron City, and it is just around the corner, so there is no need to let the city of Edelafah go. , "No matter what, this is our chance anyway, Alfred, once again inform General Sekrabi to let his troops return to defense as soon as possible."

"Yes, Your Highness." The minister here replied.

There is no one to take care of the city of Edrafa. All the troops have been transferred away, and the people in the city have almost run away. Basically, they all went to the main city to take refuge. The troops of the human race are very It was easy to get the city of Edrafa with almost no resistance, and of course the burning, killing and looting were carried out immediately.

The time soon came to the second day, and the direction of the war was a little unclear. First of all, today, the troops of the Demon Race finally entered the territory of the Undead, and they were preparing to start a war with the Undead. Fortunately, the Undead Originally, they were going to prepare reinforcements for Li Huailin's side, so the troops had already assembled, and the response was relatively timely. Several major cities on the border had assembled troops, ready to defend and attack.

On the main city of the human race, the vanguard of the rebel army finally approached the main city of the human race from the west, and the 15,000 royal guards in the main city were also ready to defend the city.

On the side of Molten Iron City, the main city of the dwarves, the main force of the human race is still in Adrafa City, which is still half a day away from the main city, but I don’t know why the main force of the human race is very procrastinating until noon. The ground began to march towards the direction of the molten iron city, and the speed of the march was also very slow.

Most of the royal family members and nobles of the dwarves had already arrived at the city of Soganda in the rear. Regarding the actions of the human army, almost no one could understand what they were doing, but they guessed that the things that the human race might have robbed were really serious. Too many, causing the transport team to slow down the progress of the entire army.

In any case, this is good news for the dwarves, because just today, the 70,000 dwarf reinforcements are finally coming back after a long journey. The city was about to be captured, so he rushed back from the front line all the way, and he was surprised to advance the time of returning to the army by more than ten hours.

The leader of this army is the famous general of the dwarves, Sekrabi, who is also a veteran, and can be regarded as a relatively strong general on the dwarf side, so he received the task of returning to the main city immediately.

He has also received information from the main city now, which is also good news for him, because the troops of the human race have not yet reached the molten iron city, and they are still on the road ahead of the molten iron city. I feel that I may catch up with the troops of the human race today.

Of course, it is impossible for him to let the troops go up to fight the troops of the human race now. The current soldiers are exhausted after driving for 3 days in a row, and they must rest. Forget it, my troops should not be able to catch up with the human race before they capture the Molten Iron City, but Sekerabi feels that the king has withdrawn from the city anyway, and the Molten Iron City here can also be used as a bait, etc. When he arrived near Molten Iron City, he felt that the whole army was resting. After the human troops here captured the main city, they would definitely carry out large-scale robbery and killing. At this time, the soldiers were the most chaotic, and the commander might not even be able to call back . And when the timing is almost right, Secrabi here will suddenly launch an attack, attacking the human troops who are killing, and should be able to win with one blow.

I exchanged my thoughts with the generals here, and everyone thought this method was very good, so it was passed quickly.

"Then let's hurry up and go to the vicinity of the main city immediately. When the opponent is careless, give the opponent a fatal blow. May the God of Katok protect us!"

"Katok god protects!" The dwarf generals here said together.

So the dwarf reinforcements here accelerated again and rushed towards the main city. At this time, not only the generals, but also the soldiers were very anxious, because their families were all near the main city. They were also notoriously brutal, and everyone wanted to rush back to save their families, so although the dwarf soldiers were very tired, they still insisted on marching at an accelerated pace.

And the more anxious you are, the more problems will arise. At noon, the dwarves' reinforcements have arrived less than half a day away from the main city. According to the original plan, they will be able to reach the vicinity of the main city when night falls. The Sekerabi here is also very satisfied with this speed, but now there is a limit for people. The soldiers here are obviously a little bit physically unable to keep up after walking all morning. The Sekerabi here decided to take a little rest and immediately Immediately hurry again.

"The whole army rests!" "The whole army rests!" The order was conveyed immediately, and all the soldiers fell down immediately. Although they knew that they had to hurry, they could rest for a while now.

Sekrabi can't rest yet, he has to keep an eye on his opponent's dynamics, but he is a little strange, because the scouting guards who were supposed to come here to report regularly just now have not appeared, and he wants to ask where the human troops are now, Have you reached Molten Iron City?

"Strange... Where is the person?" The general next to him also felt strange, the reconnaissance team should have returned.

"How long have you been out?" Secrabi here suddenly had a bad feeling. Although he didn't know why, he just felt that he was in danger.

"Well, about half an hour?" The general next to him thought for a while and said.

"No, I always feel that something is wrong." Sekerabi said with a sullen face.

"What's wrong? General, what do you think is wrong?" The general next to him asked.

"I don't know, but I always feel unsafe." Secrabi thought for a while and said, "Send out to investigate again, and then let the soldiers be on alert..."

"It's not good! General!" Just as he was talking, a soldier rushed in at the door and said, "General! The undead troops all over the mountains and plains are coming!"

"What?! Undead army?!" All the dwarf generals were stunned for a moment. (to be continued..) ()
