Warcraft Eternal Tree - Chapter 570

c570 Choose field battle

Soon, the first officer spoke up in support of the choice of abandoning the city wall. The first officer to understand was the tall and thin guy who had been talking nonsense before, which surprised Yu Fei.

“Commander, I think it’s better for us to abandon the city wall. Xirik City, in fact, has no need to defend. This city wall can’t play a defensive role at all. Compared with street fighting, I think field fighting is more reliable.” This is what the tall and thin officer said.

Those who can reach the position of senior officers are generally not just strong in strength, but also have high sensitivity in war. Before, they subconsciously wanted to choose to stick to the city wall just because of their habit. After Paramount stopped them from making a choice immediately and let them think about it, these officers quickly turned their minds.

Yes, there is really no need to defend this city wall! Generally speaking, the role of the city wall is to be used for defense, so that the long-range troops and magicians in the city can effectively kill the enemies outside the city. But now, the city wall here in Xirik City does not play the role it should play.

On the contrary, in order to maintain the integrity of the city wall, the magicians were exhausted like dead dogs. As for the magician group under Yu Fei, if they had not adopted a shift system and had a reserve team, those magicians would have been unable to hold on.

In this case, it would be better not to have the city wall. In fact, the choice to be made is whether to fight in the street or in the field.

There is no doubt that Paramount and the officers around him will choose to fight in the field.

Generally speaking, the concern of street fighting is that it will bring disaster to the residents in the city, but the residents in Xirik City have long been relocated, so there is no need to worry about this.

But the key is that in street fighting, the role of the magician tower cannot be reflected. Although the war magic after the magician tower is amplified is powerful, it is impossible to have the flexible control of the magic cast by a single magician.

If the orcs in the core of Xirik City start a street fight, then the magic cast by the magician tower will have to worry about whether it will accidentally hurt friendly forces. The magician group can only let the magicians rely on their own magic to fight, and the influence on the battle situation is greatly reduced.

Although the combined forces of the Eighth Route Army and the New Fourth Army are slightly larger than the orcs’ troops attacking Xirik City, the average strength of the human troops is far inferior to that of the orcs. If the magicians can no longer play a big role, the battlefield will definitely be a one-sided situation.

If you choose to go out of the city to fight in the field, it seems to give up the advantages brought by the city wall, but in fact it liberates the magic tower. The war magic emitted by the magic tower, which can increase the magic range, can reach about 500 to 600 meters outside the city.

With the support of the magic tower, even if the average strength of the human troops is not as good as that of the orcs, they still have the strength to fight. Instead of passively waiting for the orcs to break through the city wall and start a street fight; it is better to take the initiative to attack and fight the orcs with the support of the magic tower.

Soon, the officers unanimously passed the resolution to abandon the city wall and take the initiative to fight the orcs. As for Yu Fei on the side, he did not express his opinion and was ignored by the officers.

Well, I really think of myself as a classic magician who doesn’t know anything about foreign affairs. Yu Fei complained in his heart, but he had some appreciation for Paramount. This soldier-like legion commander is still quite capable, and he made decisions decisively and quickly.

Indeed, this short meeting said so much, but the final decision was made in less than three minutes. Under Paramount’s assignment, the officers hurried down the city wall, each responsible for their own team or notifying the New Fourth Army.

Twenty minutes later, the wall of Xirik City had become tattered. As far as Yu Fei was observing, although the khaki light emitted from the magic tower had been trying to heal the cracks and holes on the wall, it could only take care of the east and not the west.

Just below Yu Fei, a group of wolf cavalrymen had dug a big hole in the wall. The khaki light that spread over was often split by the wolf cavalry before it began to repair it. It looked like this place was about to be opened up.

This won’t do. Yu Fei frowned. In his mental sense, although the human troops in the city have almost gathered, there are still many troops still in the army, and it will take at least five minutes. If these wolf cavalrymen are allowed to attack the city wall like this, it will not be a good thing.

Forget it, after all, he has the position of the head of the Eighth Army Mage Corps, so he must show his ability. Paramount and Yu Fei are the only two people left on the top of the city, but Paramount is commanding the large troops in the city and has not noticed the situation under the city for the time being.

Paramount, who was waving the flag, suddenly felt a ripple sweeping over him, which made him shudder. Turning his head, he looked at Yu Fei, who was always mysterious in a black robe. As a warrior with strong strength, he keenly felt that the ripple seemed to be emanating from Earl O’Brien, the head of the Mage Corps.

And at this glance, Paramount found that Yu Fei was observing his feet. His sight was immediately attracted by the situation of the city wall under his feet.

When Paramount found that the city wall was about to be cut through by a group of wolf cavalry, he immediately broke out in a cold sweat. The troops were not fully assembled and mobilized yet. If the orcs attacked the city now, they would definitely suffer a great defeat.

But just when he had this idea, those wolf cavalrymen were already dead. Whether they were the wolf cavalrymen who continued to chop along the holes in the city wall, or the wolf cavalrymen who were expanding the entrance or chopping other parts of the city wall, as long as they were within a hundred meters of Yu Fei, they all fell silently.

There was no scar on the bodies of these wolf cavalrymen, and even their eyes were still wide open. But the light in their eyes had disappeared completely.

Paramont could hardly see the wolf cavalrymen in the cave, but he could see them clearly outside. The fall of those wolf cavalrymen was instantly connected to the ripples emanating from him and Yu Fei.

Is this a spiritual magician? Paramont was a little uncertain, because spiritual magicians are relatively rare, and even he had not seen a few.

Oh, Earl O’Brien! Why didn’t I think of it earlier! Paramont suddenly remembered that he had heard of the name of Earl O’Brien before. Because this earl is a nobleman related to the Saint Childe family.

It is said that this mysterious earl is indeed a powerful spiritual magician, and the origin of his title is that he saved the son of the head of the Saint Child family through spiritual magic. If the head of the magic group in front of him holding the letter of appointment from His Majesty is really the legendary Earl O’Brien, it would be easy to kill these wolf cavalrymen under the city silently.

Paramount was thinking about this, but suddenly a voice came to his ears. “I can only maintain a mental attack within a range of about 100 meters, protect the hole below, and let the army gather and attack quickly!”

This is Yu Fei’s voice, with a hint of command in his tone. However, Paramount did not care about this, but hurriedly continued to wave the flag to command the soldiers of the Eighth Army in the city, preparing to rush out of Xirik City.

In fact, if Yu Fei wanted to do his best, how could he only kill the wolf cavalrymen within a range of 100 meters. However, this is fighting for the Holy Lion Empire, and he has to maintain his identity as a legendary master. He is unwilling and difficult to show stronger power.

With Yu Fei’s delay, the Eighth Route Army and the New Fourth Army in Xirek City finally assembled before the Wolf Cavalry opened another road on the city wall, and prepared to rush out of Xirek City.

Of course, the gate of Xirek City is so small that it is impossible for more than 300,000 troops in the city to rush out at once. Before that, it is necessary to kill or drive away the Wolf Cavalry that is close to the city wall.

And this needs to be done by the Mage Tower. The Mage Tower in Xirek City stopped emitting khaki light to repair the city wall, and changed to offensive war magic.
