Chapter 531: incoming
Chapter 531 Attack
The entire Dragon City Fortress was filled with steam.
The steam boilers arranged in different areas of the city are all fully fueled, and the hot high-pressure steam is delivered to the city defense section through special pipes, and then sent to the city defense crossbows, catapults and other steam weapons. The atmosphere of the coming war is suffocating.
But the enemy did not appear, the grassland ahead was empty, and the forest in the distance was as calm as a windless ocean.
"Those wolf cubs, it will take at least another hour to see them."
A burly man next to him said to Zuo Yi: "They have to go through the forest ahead first. The wolf cavalry should arrive first, and then their vassals."
This Seles big man is more than two meters tall, his muscles are super strong, his head is bald, and his appearance is quite simple and honest.
His skin is wheat-colored, and his whole body looks like an iron tower, the kind that cannot be destroyed.
The big man Seles saw Zuo Yi looking out of the crenel a few times, and guessed that Zuo Yi had never fought against the wolf clan, so he kindly reminded him: "Our central tower can monitor the surrounding tens of kilometers. Worried about a sneak attack by wolf cubs."
Zuo Yi nodded and asked, "Are you a volunteer too?"
The other party speaks Chinese well, and must have lived in Dragon City Fortress for a long time.
"My name is Quick."
The big man Seles grinned, revealing a mouthful of white and neat teeth: "I am now a reserve warrior of the Dragon City Guards. As long as I get five more battle achievements, I can become a full-time warrior!"
Zuo Yi was a little curious: "Do you really want to join the Dragon City Guard?"
"yes!"
Quick puffed up his chest and said: "It is my honor to be able to fight against the wolf clan with you Daxia people, and..."
Also, he was exiled to Dragon City Fortress as a criminal. Only by gaining enough military exploits can he get rid of this shameful status and even go one step further.
Becoming a real member of the Dragon City Guard is his only hope.
This big man in Seles is obviously a straight-hearted character, the kind who can't hide his words in his heart, and no matter how he just met Zuo Yi just now, he has revealed his identity and origin all in one brain.
Zuo Yi has a better impression of such a person, he smiled and extended his hand to the other party: "My name is Zuo Yi."
"Left, Zuo Yi."
Quick shook hands with him naively: "Hello."
Gulu~
As soon as Quick finished speaking, his stomach made a sound like thunder.
The Seles big man was very embarrassed, scratched his head and explained: "I, I haven't had time to eat breakfast yet."
"It's okay, I treat you to eat."
Zuo Yi laughed, and took out bread, barbecue, sausage and other food from the space ring and gave them to the other party.
"thanks."
Quick was stunned for a while, and said with some embarrassment: "I, I will give you back a wolf ear!"
Zuo Yi wondered: "Wolf ears?"
After Quick's explanation, he realized that the wolf ears were used to count military exploits. The volunteers stationed on the first section of the city wall mainly dealt with the wolf warriors rushing up the wall, killing the werewolves and cutting off their ears. In order to obtain the corresponding military exploits.
Quick gave Zuo Yi a wolf ear, which is equivalent to giving him some military exploits in return.
"Then you are at a loss."
Zuo Yi laughed dumbfoundedly, and took out a few bottles of beer from the space ring to Quick.
Beer is of course a product of the Blue Star World, and it is not affected by the rules of the world in his space ring, but it must be drunk as soon as possible after it is taken out, otherwise it will soon break down.
As long as food and drink are digested and absorbed, there is no problem.
Quick was very happy, and he was full of praise for the beer. He thought it tasted better than ale, but the taste was a bit weak.
Woo! Woo! Woo~
Just over half an hour later, the horn sounded again in the Dragon City Fortress, and red flares exploded in the air.
Countless birds startled in the distant forest, and there was a low roar.
"Come so fast!"
Just having enough food and drink, Quick, who was resting with his back against the wall, immediately jumped up, and he grabbed the tomahawk next to him.
The wolves really came this time.
Thousands of wolves rushed out of the forest, like a black torrent flooding the grassland, approaching the Dragon City Fortress in just a few minutes.
These wolves are all sturdy and strong. They wear dark brown leather armor and ride a dark gray wolf with a bow and sword on their backs.
Many volunteers stationed on the first section of the city wall like Zuo Yi and Quick changed their faces.
But the vanguard of the wolf cavalry stopped a thousand kilometers away from the city wall. They quickly formed up and stared at the Dragon City Fortress that blocked the canyon.
"Bah!"
Quick spat out angrily: "Cunning wolf cub!"
The place where the wolf cavalry stopped was just outside the effective attack range of the steam crossbow. They obviously had a good understanding of the defense preparations of the Dragon City Fortress.
At this moment, in the headquarters of the central tower, the senior officers of the Dragon City Guards are using the water mirror and sound transmission skills of the mages to monitor the situation inside and outside the fortress, and at the same time convey orders one after another.
On the wall, water mirrors show the outside scene from different angles.
Although they are ready to fight, although it is not the first time they have encountered a surprise attack from the wolf clan, and although the Dragon City Fortress has never fallen since its establishment, the expressions on everyone's faces are serious.
Because Fan Hailiu, the supreme commander and soul of the Dragon City Guards, is far away in the royal capital of Seles at the moment, even if the news is passed on now, it will take at least two or three days to come back.
Without the presence of this strong Alpha, everyone feels a little lack of confidence.
The most important thing is, was the wolf clan's attack just when Fan Hailiu left, was it a coincidence or premeditated?
If it is the latter, then the problem is big!
This possibility has cast a shadow over many people's minds.
As time went by, more and more wolf cavalry appeared on the grassland through the forest, ten thousand, twenty thousand, thirty thousand...
Followed by a larger number of wolf vassals, they brought a large number of chariots, ballistas, catapults and other equipment for attacking the city. After joining with the wolf cavalry, the number of this army broke through One hundred thousand!
Click! Click! Click!
Accompanied by bursts of creepy cracks, big trees fell down one after another, and a team composed of dozens of giants appeared behind the wolf army.
"The Golden Tent of the Wolf King!"
I don't know who shouted loudly, but I saw eight giants carrying a giant tent through the passage opened by their companions, and appeared at the center of the wolf army.
The golden tent is shining brightly under the sunlight, and the black battle flag on the top is fluttering in the wind!
