Chapter 1372: Solemnity and Surprise

"What?"

Since Lei Xiao had turned on the telepathic speaker, Sean's sudden report immediately caused an uproar in the entire team.

Everyone present looked as if they had not expected it, and they all stopped involuntarily and began to look at each other.

During this process, Broy, Chris, Fanny, Nar, and Ruth also pressed their ears one after another, as if they were receiving magic communications.

In just a moment, the leaders obviously received the same news, and the surprise on their faces began to turn into silence and astonishment.

You know, when Lei Xiao and Davis and other dragon generals made plans, the leaders were also present and participated in the formulation of every detail of the entire plan. There was no response to the unknown reinforcements, which was a consensus reached by everyone.

After all, there were only four forces on the other side of the fluorescent giant valley. Since we have covered the flower fairies and dragons, there are only trolls and minotaurs left.

As for other forces further out in the outer domain, it will take a certain amount of time to approach this area. During this process, the flower fairies and dragonborn scouts cannot fail to notice a clue.

If there are really armies from other forces farther away, it will be enough for us to adjust the battle plan in real time while the other party is rushing over.

While everyone was astonished, Lei Xiao was thinking with a frown on his face, his brain was turning quickly.

The plan of luring the enemy into a trap that he and everyone else had formulated was actually very simple.

That is to use the combination of illusions and some real soldiers to create the illusion that the dragonborn army is frantically attacking us. After all, the opponent does not know that we have reached a cooperation with the dragonborn in secret.

Seeing that we have started fighting with the dragonborn army, the tauren and troll army, who are also eyeing the mine, will never miss this excellent opportunity and will definitely come to catch the mantis while the oriole is behind.

At that time, as long as the other party crashes into the trap that we have deployed in advance, then the only thing left is to close the door and beat the dog.

Regarding this plan, I and everyone have perfected every detail, including how to deal with and guard against the other force when only one of the tauren and trolls is attracted.

But as long as both fall into the trap at the same time, our army and the dragon army will narrow the encirclement from all sides, with the goal of annihilating the opponent's main force in the shortest time to prevent other accidents.

In this case, we really have no action plan to prevent other unknown reinforcements, and almost all our attention is focused on the opponent's main force that fell into the trap.

After all, the opponents have all stepped into the trap, and there is no need for us to deploy troops in other places to slow down the time to annihilate the opponent.

Because of this, when I just received the news that the tauren and troll armies had both crashed into the trap, it was expected, because everything had been arranged.

As for the place to enter the trap, it is the Wangying Canyon near Yingying Peak, where the mountain walls on both sides are relatively high, which is the most suitable place in the entire area.

"Even though we have made careful arrangements, we still didn't expect that unexpected changes would occur."

Thinking of this, a cold light flashed across Lei Xiao's solemn eyes.

However, although he and the leaders did not prepare a plan for this, it did not mean that he would be helpless. He still had a trump card that could at least delay for a while.

"Your Majesty, since the identity of the reinforcements is unknown and our scouts did not issue any alarms, it is enough to rule out that other nearby forces came to intervene. What is the origin of this huge enemy unknown reinforcement? How did it suddenly appear here?"

Broy was surprised in his heart and couldn't help but asked with a puzzled look on his face.

"Your Majesty the Dwarf Elf is right. This is simply incredible."

Chris has not recovered from her shock and asked Lei Xiao: "Your Majesty, what should we do?"

After Chris said this, others also cast their eyes over, full of questions and anxious expressions.

"The most urgent task is to find out the identity of the unknown reinforcements, their specific combat power and number as soon as possible, and then formulate corresponding countermeasures."

Lei Xiao nodded slightly, commanding everyone to fly towards the entrance of the mine, and said solemnly: "Everyone, all this did come a little suddenly, but don't forget that we still have Ice Stone City, which can appear anywhere."

The trump card that Lei Xiao just thought of was Ice Stone City and the one million human army stationed in the city and the original 30 legions of Ice Stone City.

According to the original plan, Ice Stone City was assisting other friendly forces to besiege the opponent around the mine, and there was no important task.

After all, most of the human soldiers were still at the second level, and Lei Xiao would naturally not let his soldiers go out of the city to fight without sufficient strength.

Although the overall combat power of Ice Stone City is limited, it only has the combat power of about 25 third-level legions when added together, but it is a mobile force after all, coupled with the increasingly powerful absolute defense barrier of Ice Stone City, it can still temporarily resist the enemy reinforcements.

After hearing Lei Xiao's words, everyone's nervous expressions eased a lot, and they immediately took action without hesitation, flying towards the entrance from which they came.

During this process, Lei Xiao shrugged helplessly at Ruth and said, "It seems that the matter of obtaining the black crystal ball will have to be discussed later."

"Thank you to His Majesty the Human Race for still thinking of us. We are determined to tide over this crisis with His Majesty the Human Race and you all."

Ruth nodded solemnly and said solemnly: "Although our strength is limited, please let us do our best."

"Then I would rather obey your orders than be respectful."

Just when Lei Xiao nodded slightly, the group of people had already flown out of the entrance of the mine and continued to rush towards the outside world through the spiral staircase.

Feeling the fresh night breeze blowing on his face, Lei Xiao never stopped talking, and battle reports came one after another.

"I would like to report to you Lord, those reinforcements are extremely weird. Without any lighting measures, they are walking like flying in the complex mountain environment. They are densely packed. Their traces are all over the mountains and plains, and there is no end in sight!"

"Lord Qi, from the vast momentum soaring into the sky, it is estimated that the opponent's reinforcements are at least 50 third-level legions. As for the fourth-level legion, it is still unknown, but I am afraid it will not be less than 5 indivual!"

"For your information, Lord Lord, all the scouts sent by our side and our friendly forces to check on the unknown reinforcements have mysteriously lost contact. There seems to be a terrible poisonous miasma surrounding those armies!"

"Your Majesty, the tauren and troll armies surrounded by us are breaking out to the south in Wangying Canyon, trying to attack us with the sudden unknown reinforcements! The other side is obviously well prepared, and the offensive is overwhelming. The siege On the contrary, our soldiers were retreating steadily! We didn’t even completely break through the opponent’s absolute defensive barrier!”

"Your Majesty, after learning about the massive reinforcements from the unknown reinforcements, the morale of our soldiers, including the dragonborn army, who were besieging the tauren and troll armies, dropped sharply, especially those close to the unknown reinforcements. We are on the verge of collapse, even if the unknown reinforcements have not yet made direct contact with us!"

Listening to this series of reports, Lei Xiao's brows almost twisted into a knot.

Before the opponent's unknown reinforcements arrived, our side was already in chaos without fighting. In addition, the surrounded tauren and troll armies were converging with the unknown reinforcements in an attempt to completely penetrate our formation.

If the other side really joins forces with unknown reinforcements, then our side will definitely be defeated.

After all, our army that besieged the tauren and trolls was originally a joint force composed of dragonborn, flower fairies, wood fairies, dwarves, and tree men. It was evident that the tacit understanding between them was relatively limited.

In addition, although Wangying Canyon is the most suitable place for encirclement and ambush nearby, it is relatively spacious and the terrain of the mountain walls on both sides is also very complex. Many places are uneven and have jagged rocks, which is not suitable for magic. The mass deployment of artillery and ambushes greatly affected our output, which was also an important reason why the opponent was still able to maintain its combat power.

"Currently, the components of our siege force are 20 third-level legions and 2 fourth-level legions of the Dragonborn, 10 third-level legions and 2 fourth-level legions of the Flower Fairy, plus 10 third-level legions of the Wood Fairy. "

"The combined forces of trolls and tauren are estimated to have a combat strength of more than 30 Tier 3 legions and 4 Tier 4 legions. In this case, our side originally had the absolute upper hand, but the other side is currently trying its best. Breaking through in one direction, on the contrary, prevented our superior forces from playing their due role."

"This is not the most critical thing. What is even more chilling is that the opponent's unknown reinforcements are estimated to be 50 third-level legions and 5 fourth-level legions. This is already equivalent to the entire combat power of our siege. If If we let such a large number of unknown reinforcements stab us from behind, the consequences can be imagined.”

"And the only force I can currently use to stop the unknown reinforcements is the human army in Ice Stone City. The total combat strength is only about 25 third-order legions."

Thinking of this in his mind, big beads of sweat suddenly appeared on Lei Xiao's forehead.

If the opponent's unknown reinforcements were all converted into third-level legions, they would have reached a scale of one million. This is undoubtedly a huge combat power four times more than ours. Coupled with the suppression at the same level, it is tantamount to a sheep entering a tiger's mouth. .

"I don't care about that anymore. Even if I have a narrow escape, I will try my best to prevent the opponent from joining up with the unknown reinforcements. As long as I can successfully do this, the flame of victory will not be completely extinguished."

Lei Xiao thought as he reached the ground through the spiral staircase.

At this time, the earth-shattering sound of magical artillery fire and the shouts of killing were extremely clear in my ears, causing the entire earth to tremble.

On the other side of the mountain, you can clearly see the magical power flashing all over the sky, which shows that the battlefield has entered a white-hot stage.

"You all return to your respective positions immediately. You must stabilize the morale of the soldiers and never let the tauren and troll armies tear apart the encirclement."

Lei Xiao's eyes moved and looked at Broy, Chrissy, Fanny and Nar in turn, and said solemnly: "Furthermore, you must gather as much reserve force as possible to prepare for emergencies."

After hearing Lei Xiao's order, all the leaders nodded without thinking.

But just after nodding, a trace of uncontrollable worry appeared on everyone's faces.

Broy couldn't help but blurted out: "Your Majesty, do you plan to lead Ice Stone City to face the unknown enemy reinforcements alone? This is too dangerous!"

"This is the only way to break the situation. The encirclement must not be broken. And judging from the positions where your troops are deployed, it is too late to stop the enemy before the enemy reinforcements arrive."

Lei Xiao's voice did not allow for any doubt, and he responded: "So you just need to do your best to trap the Tauren and the troll army."

"Understood, we will set off now!"

Hearing the voice, including Broy, Chris, Fanny and others, without any hesitation, they immediately flashed and disappeared in the vast night.

"Ice Stone City is nearby, let's set off too."

Lei Xiao turned around and nodded to the human warriors and Ruth and others.

Accompanied by a gust of wind and lightning, Lei Xiao and his party quickly entered the gate of Ice Stone City.

This time, Lei Xiao did not have time to go to the command hall, but walked directly to the city wall, remotely commanding Ice Stone City to teleport in the direction of the enemy reinforcements.

At this time, the Ice Stone City was already filled with dense human armies, and every soldier was in high spirits, especially the glittering and colorful equipment, which made Ruth and other light half-elves stunned.

In their impression, the human race was just a weak force that could not even enter the outside world, and it was not worth mentioning at all.

But from now on, although the overall strength of the human army is still relatively limited, it has reached a point that people cannot ignore.

And the equipment of the human army has even completely surpassed most of the third-rate forces in the outside world, which is simply unbelievable.

To be more precise, it was the young human emperor in front of them who made the human army reborn in a very short time. This is the latest information obtained by the Dragonborn.

In addition, they had seen this city on the battlefield before, and they did not expect that the human race could actually control this kind of divine land that even most of the first-class foreign forces could not touch, which was even more shocking and incredible.

Just as Ruth and the others were filled with emotion, Lei Xiao gave an order, and the blue light around Bingshi City flashed, and it appeared on the high ground at the end of Wangying Canyon. This was the rear of our encirclement and the place where the unknown reinforcements were about to arrive.

"It may not be so easy to stab me in the back, so let me first reveal your true face hidden in the dark."

Lei Xiao stood at the highest point of the city, staring not far away.

Under the cover of night, the mountains and plains were full of dense black shadows, all emitting a chilling murderous aura, and there was no end in sight.
