Chapter 2200 Defending Shuanglin Town

For countless centuries, the Styx Witches and Glacier Knights of Niflheim have always shouldered a sacred mission - to resist the Styx Dragon Clan and prevent them from gnawing on the "Ancient Tree of Life"!

The ancestor of the poisonous dragon family, the ancient Styx poisonous dragon "Nid Hogg", has long been cursed by the "Goddess of the Underworld" Hel, and cannot rise to the surface of the Arctic sea.

Nidhogg's younger descendants are not difficult to deal with. There are only six mythical Styx ancient dragons of the sixth rank who inherit the direct lineage of the Dragon King, Gein, Moin, Grabac, Overnir, Grafvorud and Si Wafnir, the most ferocious and difficult to deal with, also poses the most serious threat to the "Ancient Tree of Life" and even the entire Shuanglin Town.

In Frostwood Town, there are a few days almost every month that they are harassed by poisonous dragons, and the witches and knights stationed here have long been used to it.

Fortunately, the poisonous dragons are not of one mind. They are divided into several major clans based on kinship. The major clans are intriguing and infighting. Even if the Dragon King Nid Hogg personally ordered it, he would not be able to truly unite his descendants. They will still hold each other back in secret.

It is thanks to the infighting of the poisonous dragon clan that Shuanglin Town can survive to this day.

The Styx ancient dragons sitting on one side rarely surfaced. In most cases, only those young poisonous dragons who do not know the heights of the sky and the earth come to the town to make trouble. The number usually does not reach double digits. Compared with the powerful garrison troops in the town, it is just coming A fucking joke...

But today, for some unknown reason, the four ancient dragons who usually hate each other, Gein, Moin, Grabac and Overnell, unexpectedly appeared together in the bay in the north of the town!

In addition, there are no less than ten Styx poisonous dragons ranging from young to mature, and a large group of "Purgatory Giant Squids" controlled by the poisonous dragons, trailing behind the four ancient dragons, flocking to the coast like a tide!

Now the problem is serious!

Joan and Clark quickly put down their knives and forks, ran out of the restaurant, took their horns with them, and followed the crowd to the assembly point.

After walking through the woods and coming to the beach, Joan found that Gaina's family, Hilde and Sharon had arrived, and gathered around them were 10 young witches stationed in Shuanglin Town—all students of Ms. There are 150 fully armed "glacial knights".

In addition, the ancient tree "Green Granny" of Irminsur also activated two sturdy oak trees up to 30 feet into treants, and created 20 slender "activated ash" by casting spells, as well as countless " "Activated vines" form a green line of defense on the north side of the forest near the beach.

The Styx Witch, the Glacier Knight, the activated plants, plus a few explorers from other places, including Joan, Clark and Bighorn, and the militia reserve spontaneously formed by the townspeople, equipped with two ballistas and two catapults each. The ten gates together form the defense force of Shuanglin Town.

Judging from the comparison of the strength of the offensive and defensive sides, even if there are four mythical ancient dragons leading the attack on the Gulf side, the defensive side will still have a greater chance of winning.

However, what Ms. Helin and Captain Haijirat are most concerned about is not the outcome of this war, but how much sacrifice their side will make to resist the invasion of poisonous dragons. If the number of casualties is too large, their vitality will be greatly damaged. The elite power cannot be replenished in a short period of time. Even if Shuanglin Town escapes today, it will inevitably be destroyed sooner or later.

As soon as Joan and Clark arrived, Gaina called them over to attend an emergency combat meeting.

In order to reduce losses as much as possible, Captain Haijirat did not let go of the calls of the young knights under his command to take the initiative to attack, and ordered all the combatants to withdraw two miles to the south, and formed a defense line with "activated plants".

The Knights were divided into 5 teams, each team consisted of 30 knights plus two witches, with the team as a unit, each guarding a line of defense.

Behind the "activated plants", the knights and the witches, there are artillery positions established by the militiamen. Forty ballistas and catapults are deployed along the direction parallel to the beach. On average, each defense zone is equipped with eight soldiers. Heavy weapons.

The head of Haijirat asked all the captains to strictly implement the tactical principle of "defense and counterattack".

When the monsters passed through the beach covered by long-range firepower and approached the defense line, the "activated plants" stepped forward to defend against the enemy, and the witches cast spells to support them.

Ms. Helin advised her students to try their best to use "monster summoning" at all levels, and summon more rough-skinned and thick-skinned "cannon fodder" to exchange lives with monsters.

At the same time, the knights added protection and buff spells, waiting for the opportunity.

When the monsters were held back by the "activated plants", each knight unit launched a group charge again, hoping to break up the formation of the monster army with a wave of counterattacks, and then divide and encircle them, annihilating them one by one.

The biggest advantage of this tactic is to make full use of the battlefield space and weaken the enemy's vitality to the greatest extent before the two sides come into close combat. Moreover, the "activated plants" and summoned creatures created by spells are the first to go up, and they will automatically disappear when the time limit expires. , the correct usage is to send them to the front line as cannon fodder, thereby reducing the casualties of witches and knights.

Since the establishment of Shuanglin Town, this tactic has been used countless times, and it has been continuously improved in actual combat. Except for a very small number of outsiders, other well-trained combatants are already very familiar with this tactic, and they are also very clear about their position on the battlefield. roles played.

Judging from the experience of resisting enemy attacks in the past, this tactic is indeed effective. However, today is different from the past. The appearance of the four ancient mythical dragons together has brought variables to this war.

Captain Haijirat and Ms. Helin knew very well that no matter how ingenious the formation of troops was, they could only suppress the younger poisonous dragons and low-intelligence servants of water monsters, but they couldn't stop the ancient Styx dragon with quasi-legendary strength.

Under such circumstances, one's own side must select a group of strong men of the same level to take the initiative to attack and hold back the four ancient Styx dragons. They must not be allowed to break into one's own position and start killing, causing the defense line to collapse.

At the combat meeting, after a short but intense discussion, everyone finally reached a consensus.

Captain Hijrat and his two deputies, the 14th-level "Ice Knight" Sir Gwen and the 15th-level "Ice Knight" Sir Cornwall, joined forces to fight against the Styx ancient dragon "Glacier Lord" Moin.

Clark, Big Horn, Hilde and Sharon joined forces to block the scheming "Cunning Prince" Grabac.

The Green Granny will also fight in the "Spirit Form", and cooperate with the four "Oak Tree Guards" to fight against the "Venomous Tyrant" Gin.

In the end, the mother and daughter Helene, Gaina, and Joan joined forces to deal with the most brutal and aggressive "Bloodthirsty Duke" Ofnir among the four mythical ancient dragons.
