Chapter 1418: Attack the city overnight

Accompanied by the loud sound of the horn, the army of the Subia Demon Kingdom, which had already completed the deployment of troops, began to move forward, officially opening the prelude to attacking the Black Market Fortress.

The military drums were also beating loudly, as if they wanted to use this method to make up for the lack of morale.

Yes, as the attacking party, the morale of the army of the Subia Demon Kingdom was seriously insufficient.

At the beginning in Kaimen City, more than 100,000 soldiers of the Subia Demon Kingdom were frightened, and many of them suffered from serious mental illnesses afterwards, and they were no longer elite soldiers who could go to the battlefield.

This tragic situation has only been less than two years. Even if new soldiers are recruited to join, they must have heard the horror legend that being an enemy of Viola is being an enemy of the Demon King God.

It can be clearly said that the soldiers do not want to fight, and dare not fight, so it is strange that the morale can be high.

In addition, the army of the Subia Demon Kingdom marched all the way here, and did not camp near the fortress to rest. No matter how slow the march was, the march itself would consume the soldiers' spirit and physical strength. They did not give them any time to rest and attacked the city overnight. Even an army with morale would be weak, not to mention a group of low-morale troops.

On the other hand, Viola's morale was motivated by the war of revenge, and there were priests of the Demon King Cult acting as political commissars, so there was no problem with fighting will.

After more than a month of waiting for the enemy to tire out, the soldiers were almost fat, and there would be no loss of physical strength.

What's more, we still have the fortress to defend, and the army is larger.

It was so obvious that the enemy was weak and we were strong, it felt like there was no way to fight.

But the army of the Subia Demon Kingdom still attacked, which was indeed a very puzzling point.

After dinner, Li Chengxi sat back in front of the computer and of course saw this scene. If it is an encounter situation, the army of the Subia Demon Kingdom may use the natural environment and surprise attacks to threaten the army that is stronger than itself, then in this kind of siege situation, it is basically impossible to win.

A great man once said that there is no such thing as the weak defeating the strong, it is all the strong defeating the weak, mainly looking at whether it is strong overall or locally strong.

However, whether it is from the overall or local perspective, the army of the Subia Demon Kingdom has no advantage.

So Li Chengxi was a little puzzled.

But he just thought about it for a while, and then his mind was empty.

It doesn't matter, I will take action.

No matter what secret weapons the army of the Subia Demon Kingdom hides, as long as Li Chengxi takes action, they will have no chance to sing.

Or to put it more simply, a rain of fire will go down directly, and these demoralized soldiers of the Subia Demon Kingdom will probably turn around and run away.

I didn't do this because Aidas once said that it is best not to interfere too much in the mortal world. Although there is no actual evidence to prove the existence of the "Curse of Mortals", it is better to believe it than not to believe it. What if it happens?

Li Chengxi also decided to suppress the interference to the extent that the saints would descend, and try not to be too strong.

So when he saw the army of the Subia Demon Kingdom was advancing, he just watched for the time being and did not make any moves.

But he could watch the show, and Viola and her army still had to be in high spirits.

No matter how big the advantage is, people will die in the war. If you don't want to become one of the corpses, you have to be extremely careful.

The army of the Subia Demon Kingdom pressed closer step by step with the sound of drums, and the distance was so close that you could see every line of the shields in the hands of the soldiers with your naked eyes.

At this time, a very loud horn sounded from the Black Stone Fortress.

This special silver horn needs a bellows to make a sound. The loud sound instantly overwhelmed the drums of the army of the Subia Demon Kingdom, representing a signal.

Start the war.

–--——----

Arrows flew like raindrops, whether they were shot from the fortress to the outside of the city, or from the outside of the city to the fortress, before the two sides came into close combat, they must have been covered by rounds of arrow rain.

The army of the Subia Demon Kingdom came directly from the country to the Black Stone Fortress. In order to conceal their whereabouts on the way, they did not receive any supplies. The number of arrows they carried was obviously not comparable to Viola, who had been waiting in the Black Stone Fortress for more than a month.

After three rounds of arrow rain, the archers of the Subia Demon Kingdom army became cautious, while Viola's archers continued to draw their bows as if arrows were free.

The supplies stored in the Black Stone Fortress were enough for the archers to use even if their arms were broken. This battle was very rich.

However, the army of the Subia Demon Kingdom relied on the coverage of three rounds of arrow rain to successfully allow many soldiers to rush to the bottom of the fortress. They began to use ladders with hooks to try to attack the city.

A large number of slats and rolling stones were thrown down from the city wall. Fortunately, Viola didn't know what gold juice was, otherwise the scene under the city wall would be even more unbearable to look at.

As I said earlier, the morale of the army of the Subia Demon Kingdom is seriously insufficient. Being able to rush to the bottom of the city wall and shout a few times is already worthy of the salary issued by His Majesty the Demon King.

You want me to attack the city?

Really? I'm going?

The rolling stones and beams were thrown down and broke the ladders, and also destroyed the little morale of the soldiers. The soldiers had already fled shortly after the start.

Even before the siege tower built by the army of the Subia Demon Kingdom was pushed over, some people wanted to retreat.

However, the supervision team did a good job, and the soldiers could only do it reluctantly and try again.

It is obviously unrealistic to rely on the supervision team to push people up. In fact, when the supervision team plays a role, it is when the army is no longer able to do it.

As the commander, Isaac certainly saw all this very clearly.

"General, the battering ram has been hit hard, and the front line can no longer advance."

The staff officer's words were actually very euphemistic. It was not a question of whether the battering ram could reach the city gate, but that the soldiers had no morale at all.

Isaac was young, which was an advantage, but in the army, a young commander meant that he was inexperienced and difficult to convince.

The reason for the escape from Avarus was largely because Isaac's grandfather, the Tiger of the Kingdom, had died. If he were still alive, the soldiers would not have retreated even if they could not win the battle, but they would not have been defeated like fleeing.

Isaac did not have enough ability and prestige to control the orderly retreat of the army at that time, and he now had no ability to revitalize the low-morale army.

For the soldiers and even the staff officers, Isaac was just a speculator who stood in the coup. Although his grandfather was famous, he was not very good.

"I understand."

The staff officer only got this answer, and it was hard to say whether Isaac had figured out the situation.

For the soldiers and the staff, going abroad to fight was not in their expectations. With the current state of the Subia Demon Kingdom, it was already the limit to resist the attack of the Guatni Demon Kingdom in the south. It was a bad move to specially allocate troops to help the Tandron Demon Kingdom.

The staff looked at Isaac, sighed, and didn't say much.

Isaac has changed a lot during this period of time. As a staff who once assisted the Tiger of the Kingdom, I can no longer understand what Isaac is thinking now.

He never discussed strategies with the staff, and often whispered with a group of guys who hid their heads and showed their tails. The passionate young man before seemed to have died suddenly. Now Isaac is gloomy and silent, with a chilling temperament.

Just as he was about to turn around and leave, the staff heard Isaac say:

"It's time, let the ambush take action."

The staff didn't think the so-called ambush could play a big role, but the order was there.

"As you command, your will."

At that moment, the staff seemed to see a shadow lingering on Isaac, perhaps the god of death was ready to take him away.
