Chapter 535 The headhunters’ general attack
Author: True North
The Emerald Palace.
With the active coordination between Emerald Lake and the Golden Shield Empire envoys, the first batch of support materials from the Golden Shield Empire were properly disposed of immediately after arriving at Emerald Port. The Royal Court patrols set up multiple material distribution points on the city roads.
Refugees who escaped from the forest queued up to receive daily necessities.
Blankets, clothes, coal stoves, pots, buckets...
Some coals and oats, potatoes, dehydrated vegetables.
Children can get extra canned cheese and meat.
The refugees waiting to receive supplies were anxiously waiting for distribution while carefully looking at the sky and surroundings.
The sky is a chaotic battlefield. The headhunters rely on the large number of flying mantises to gain air superiority. The hunters who are not afraid of death frequently ride on the flying mantises to perform suicide attacks. They attack in groups from the outside of the city.
, sending some hunters into the city at the expense of most of the losses.
The Emerald Royal Court erected simple magic towers and arrow towers on tall buildings in the city, and used magic, bows, and muskets to eliminate invading hunters. In addition, some of the Royal Court patrols were set up as urban mobile forces, using eagle eyes and hounds.
Carry out hunts for predators who have slipped through the net.
Magic, arrows, and bullets intertwined into a network in the air, and hunters and mantises rained down.
But even with such a tight defense, some residents still died at the hands of invading hunters, especially those particularly powerful hunters. The Royal Court patrols would have to pay considerable losses if they wanted to eliminate them.
Hunger makes the refugees risk their lives and leave the shelter. They just want to get something as soon as possible and then go back and hide.
During this period, the royal court patrols also sent more soldiers to guard the high places to cover the distribution of supplies. Owls flew at low altitude, hounds patrolled every corner of the secluded streets and alleys, and griffins and Pegasus knights tried their best to protect the port.
and over important urban areas.
Every elf is working hard, and many humans and residents of other races have also joined in the battle to defend the Emerald Court.
The arrival of aid supplies from the Golden Shield Empire brought hope of survival to them who had fallen into despair.
Outside the city, the headhunters have completed the siege of the Emerald Royal Court from land.
The fire set off by the three-leaf king against all opinions bought the forest elves the most precious time. The elf mages used the stolen time to build a thorn wall outside the city and built hundreds of small
fortress.
It was these defensive facilities that allowed the forest elves to use the open space created by the fire to withstand the initial attack of the headhunters. Although the headhunters received more and more reinforcements later, the city defense of the Emerald Royal Court also became more and more complete.
Now that all the factories in the Emerald Palace have been transferred to wartime management, alchemy puppets have been assembled in large numbers and put into the battlefield, greatly easing the pressure on the patrols.
The ships seized at the beginning of the war are constantly rescuing forest elves from the coast and returning to the Emerald King's Court. Adult elves have been recruited, and patrol armies are seizing the time to train.
The headhunters missed the best opportunity to attack the Jade Palace.
As the commander-in-chief of the headhunters in charge of attacking the Emerald Court, Hunting King Neltje was very angry.
In an empty hunter shell on the front line, Niltje and several other hunter kings discussed how to attack the Emerald Court. The hunter kings included two elves, a unicorn, and a forest anaconda.
I am in awe of the hunting angel Niltje who has regained the queen's favor.
Niltje asked the forest anaconda: "Can't the tunnel leading into the royal court be opened?"
The forest anaconda coiled its body and spat out a letter and replied: "The forest elves have very accurate underground detection methods. Once the tunnel we dig is discovered, we will be attacked by the earthquake technique. Many of my subordinates died, but the queen
You don’t want to breed new subordinates with me.”
The forest anaconda was full of resentment. Ever since the queen got the unicorn, she rarely touched him again. Later, when she got the angel, she even drove herself out of the nest. Now that so many of her subordinates have died but they can't get replacements, it's even worse.
status.
Niltje said arrogantly: "Faced with the Emerald Palace, a fortified city with sufficient manpower and defense system, those of you hunters who are not as strong as you are... acting as cannon fodder is a waste, and acting as the main force is useless.
The only ones qualified to fight for Her Majesty the Queen are my hunting angels!
Cultivating hunting angels is quite expensive for your majesty. Fortunately, I serve your majesty day and night, and I have bred a new group of hunting angels. This time I brought them all here, and I will definitely conquer the Emerald Palace for your majesty and occupy it.
The entire Emerald Forest.”
Nirtje didn't know why the body of Elf Qingkong, which he personally delivered to the Queen, suddenly disappeared, but it was an indisputable fact that he had regained the Queen's favor. In the past few days, he had served the Queen every day and reproduced, which really put the other hunting kings in the capital.
So jealous.
At this time, Nirtje's expression almost said "You are all rubbish!"
Niltje's pride aroused the dissatisfaction of the other hunting kings, but they did not dare to show it.
A Hunting King Elf said at this time: "King Niltje... After our aerial reconnaissance, we found that a fleet of the Golden Shield Empire arrived at the Emerald Port. The fleet brought a lot of supplies, which greatly improved the forest elves'
combat effectiveness and morale.
If we don't launch a decisive attack as soon as possible, the Emerald King's Court will become increasingly difficult to defeat."
Niltje finally brought his mind back to the war.
"If you don't tell me, I also know that the Golden Shield Empire's aid has arrived at the Emerald Palace, which is why I rushed here from the Queen's lair." Niltje waved his hand, and the magic illuminated the map of the Emerald Palace. Around the Emerald Palace
There are five attack points. The frontal attack group has the angel standard. The other four attack groups from left to right are elves, elves, unicorns, and forest anacondas. Niltje pointed like a king and said: "After the meeting,
, you immediately take your men to the attack position, where the hunter-killer army assigned to you has already assembled. Tomorrow morning, you will launch a full-scale attack on the Emerald Royal Court's defense line from four directions, and try your best to move the defensive force as far as possible.
You are attracted there.
At noon... I will lead the hunting angels to break through the depth of the Emerald Royal Court under the cover of the flying mantis. As long as the hunting angels break through the frontal defense and enter the city, it will be our hunting ground.
Your mission is to contain the main force of the Emerald Royal Court and prevent them from turning back to rescue the city.
Do you understand everything?"
The four hunting kings all stared wide-eyed.
I understand, I understand very much!
Aren’t we the ones who committed suicide and you took credit from Her Majesty the Queen?
But what can be done?
He is now the doting king!
However, the forest anaconda could not help but feel sorry for himself: "King Niltje, why is my attack area next to the Emerald Magic Academy? If I attack the Emerald Royal Court with all my strength, the Emerald Magic Academy can attack my side."
"You, a low-level creature who has just gained a little intelligence and doesn't even have a name, are you qualified to question my command?" Niltje stared at the forest anaconda and said angrily: "Putting you in any direction can't do anything.
The war situation brings positive improvement, and only here is the most suitable place for you. Watch out for the Emerald Magic Academy, and don’t let it mess with me in the decisive battle. This is your only remaining value in this war!"
"Yes, yes, I will obey your order, King Nilteye." The forest anaconda was so frightened that he shrank his neck and did not dare to complain any more.
Niltje glanced at the forest anaconda with contempt, and then looked at the other hunting kings with the same look: "Do you have any objections?"
"No, King Nirtje."
…
The next day, Emerald Harbor Pier.
Rossetti Owen was originally a garrison officer at the Crusaders' Caltrops Armor Factory. He was later hired by Luke to serve as the war machine commander of the Secret Service's Rangers in Raging Waves City. When the Armored Assault Division of Raging Waves City was established, the following
The war machine special operations team "Iron Ambition" led by Ern.
Throughout the Northern War, Ern performed extremely well, fully utilizing his talents in driving war machines. The "Hearts of Iron Squad"'s ability to dominate the battlefield also demonstrated Orn as an excellent war machine.
The commander's side.
There was a phased truce in the Northern War, and the Armored Assault Division of Raging Waves City returned to Raging Waves City for rest. Ern was immediately entrusted with the important task by Luke to form the Assault Division's Magical Titan Squadron based on the "Hearts of Iron Team".
However, since the research and development of the Magic Titan has not yet ended, they can only use the Steam Titan to make the transition.
Oon serves as the instructor of the Steam Titan Training Brigade of the Royal First Magic Legion and the Second Royal Magic Legion at the same time, and is the commander of the Steam Titan Team supporting the Emerald Court this time.
The mission of the Steam Titans is to protect the ships of the Golden Shield Empire entering the Emerald Port, and to guard the supplies that have not yet been handed over to the forest elves.
From the moment they boarded the Emerald Harbor Pier, these tall steam titans were constantly pointed at by all parties.
Mighty is absolutely mighty.
As soon as the five-meter-tall steel machinery stood there, it gave off a strong sense of oppression. Not to mention the sound it made when it walked, and the vibration it caused to the ground.
As for the combat effectiveness of this big guy, many elf patrols doubted it.
Anyone who has seen a war machine can tell that it is a fully enclosed war machine. Although the thickened armor provides reliable protection for the driver, it puts a huge burden on the entire power system.
If it can't run in war, it will be a living coffin. The enemy has many ways to kill the driver behind the armor.
In the eyes of elves, war machinery is not a flexible weapon, let alone something that increases in height and thickness.
It is more ornamental than practical.
This is the first impression the elves have of the Steam Titan.
Rossetti Owen did not ask his subordinates to perform maneuvers in order to show their strength to the elves. Once such a heavy guy started running, it would cause too much damage to the ground. If it made the entire dock full of potholes, it would affect subsequent supplies and personnel.
conveying speed.
The members of the Steam Titans stayed firmly at the dock and tried not to move around much. Their spare time after work was to watch the battle in the sky.
The flying mantises of the headhunters flew in like clouds, and the fire nets formed by magic, arrows and bullets from the ground were harvested layer by layer. Sometimes the patrols of the royal court would release large groups of alchemy flying objects to attack.
