Chapter 221

In the magic world, ordinary brick and stone walls are actually not particularly useful no matter how high or thick they are.

In the face of those messy magics, if you want the walls to be stable, you must have enough "magic resistance".

The main reason why Mengchuan City was able to hold off so many coalition forces for several years is that the magic resistance of Mengchuan City's walls is high enough.

So high that even every brick of the wall has a special magic inscription.

In fact, apart from these magic inscriptions, the height of Mengchuan City's walls is only a hundred meters and the thickness is only a dozen meters.

In ancient Kyushu, this is undoubtedly an insurmountable natural barrier, but in this magic world where high-level warriors can tear tanks apart with their hands and magicians can easily use wind, rain, thunder and lightning.

Such walls are not good enough.

Not to mention the distant past, a high-level earth magician can make the walls of ordinary cities collapse from the foundation to the walls with a simple earth magic.

Only a border fortress like Mengchuan City, which has invested heavily in building it, can have a wall that is almost completely immune to magic.

It is said that even a ninth-level or even a demigod-level magician can hardly cause much damage to the wall with magic.

So to capture such a city, you can only pay with human lives and send people to rush in continuously.

If you encounter other cities, with the scale of the coalition, even if your walls are high and thick, you can still blow them up with tens of thousands of magicians using various magic bombardments.

There is no condition to hold on at all.

So don't think that the wall of the pass is so awesome just because it is high and thick. In fact, in front of the northern army that is about to go south, the real obstacle is still Mengchuan City, not this small pass.

This thing has only built a wall now. It is not a great pass in this world. It can only be regarded as a small threshold before approaching Mengchuan City.

In a short period of time, Weiwei can only recruit various magicians to enchant the walls of the pass by spending money and food.

Fortunately, the value of money and food in this world is basically the same, and having food in her hand is no different from having money.

So the progress of this enchantment is not slow.

It’s just that the Northern Army is about to go south. According to the latest news, after learning that Mengchuan City is constantly recruiting orcs to try to divide the races in the North, the Elf Kingdom has accelerated the speed of summoning the Alliance Army, and even the vanguard troops sent in advance have set off.

It will arrive at the pass in three to five days at the latest.

Don’t think that there are not many people just because it is a vanguard.

The actual situation is that there are as many as five million troops in this "vanguard" army, including more than 500,000 elite warriors of the elves, and the rest are all excellent warriors carefully selected from various races.

There are almost no ordinary people in it, and the worst are warriors.

The determination of the North is obvious. Even if it has not yet been completely coordinated, it must first send such an elite army to take Mengchuan City.

And three to five days is obviously not enough for her to have people enchant this city wall to the level of Mengchuan City.

So it is nonsense to expect deep trenches and high fortifications to withstand the enemy's first wave of offensive.

Fortunately, in addition to deep trenches and high fortifications, she still has some trump cards in her hand.

For example, the artillery troops from Jiuzhou, this kind of long-range delivery firepower is absolutely invincible on the battlefield of cold weapons.

It can greatly eliminate the difference in numbers.

Although it has been more than a month since the last Jiuzhou reinforcements, the news that Weiwei got from the North is that the North still has no way to deal with this overwhelming firepower attack.

It is precisely because of this that after the other races in the North decided to unite with the elves, there was a lot of controversy about whether to take the Mengchuan City of the Chiyang Empire.

Although the Chiyang Empire was in civil strife, the persistence of Mengchuan City in the past few years has already proved their awakening to defend the city. Among the six main roads to the south, Mengchuan City is the most difficult one and the one with the best city defense ability.

Although the countries that blocked the other five passes from going south have no internal unrest at present, the determination of the garrisons and the defensive capabilities of the cities may not be comparable to those of Mengchuan City.

If they really want to fight, it is hard to say whether it will be more difficult to fight than Mengchuan City.

Especially after learning that many tribes of the orcs have reached an agreement with Mengchuan City and moved south to Mengchuan City, which greatly compensated for the problem that Mengchuan City did not have enough garrison troops, the voice of opposition became even louder.

And the elves insisted on going south from Mengchuan City, of course, they also had their reasons.

Yue Ling, who was holding the core of the elves' Fountain of Life, disappeared here.

Although the current situation of the Fountain of Life is that even if the core is found, it cannot be saved, but the core of the Fountain of Life is a unique treasure in the world.

There are definitely countless other uses.

It would be best if it could be found.

This is one of the reasons. Another reason is that among the princes of the Chiyang Empire who are currently competing for the throne, the mother of one of them is actually from the Dark Elf Tribe of their elves.

Going south from other openings, even if they break through the pass, they will still have to face endless wars in the future, and the future is bleak no matter how you look at it.

Going south from Mengchuan City and entering the Chiyang Empire, as long as they can support the prince to ascend the throne, they will naturally have the confidence to live and work in the Chiyang Empire.

Even splitting the land and becoming a king is not a bad idea.

After all, the Chiyang Empire is big enough to give them 2 billion foreigners, or hundreds of millions of elves, enough space to survive.

Of course, for now, the Chiyang Empire prince who has a relationship with the elves is still at the level of a little Karami, and it is impossible for him to compete for the throne.

Among the princes, he is the kind that Weiwei is too lazy to touch and ask for benefits.

But it doesn't matter. The Elf King believes that as long as he can successfully lead this background army to the south, then by relying on this powerful foreign aid, he can naturally push him to the throne and achieve his goal.

For these two reasons, the elves naturally insisted on going south from Mengchuan City.

And the other tribes thought that this risk was too great and not in their interests.

The two sides were deadlocked, so they sent out such a vanguard army composed of elites from various tribes.
