Three hundred and fifty eighth page [seventeenth time]
“Are you ready?”
Murphy looked at the representatives of other major city-states and subconsciously held his sword tightly.
After a night of rest, the seven-confederate coalition forces, which did not relieve much of their fatigue, once again came to the royal city of Noxus.
This is, the seventeenth day.
The seventeenth attack and defense.
No one thinks that war will end this time.
The war will continue.
At least, from the numb faces of the soldiers, this is true. Even if the sunshine is rare today, it still cannot relieve the slightest depressing atmosphere.
"Do you think it will succeed?" He seemed a little distracted by Zuan's representative. Judging from his attitude in his words, he seemed to have no desire to conquer the city in front of him.
Or rather, he didn't think that if he captured this city so quickly, he would rather drag it on as long as possible.
"This time, we will definitely win." Murphy ignored Zuan's representative. He looked at the others and said more as if comforting himself.
The sun gradually rose; the top; the point; the novel came, illuminating all the soldiers besieged in the city, and also illuminating the Noxus who were struggling to guard the city.
They looked at the invaders under the city indifferently, and quietly waited for a death and an unshakable fate.
They will not retreat because under their feet is their burial place.
There is no road behind you, and you can't get out of the abyss that you can't get out of.
So the Noxus will never retreat.
"They are going to attack the city." Like some kind of daily conversation, the former Noxus Valkyrie Shiville said lightly at Duke Kao, the last barrier in Noxus.
"I know." Duke Kao, Lao Du, the old man who drove the carriage and followed Anne for many years like a shadow. He is now standing like a javelin.
Even if time corrodes his face and dyes his hair white.
Even Noxus, the land under his feet has given it endless pain.
But when it was really about to be completely torn apart by outsiders, he still stood up with an unparalleled aura.
When he put on his heavy armor again and shouted Noxus, he was still the one, Noxus, General Duke Kao.
His eyes were firm, and he looked at the tide of the enemy under the city without any wavering, as if he had known the outcome of the war.
That is, they will win.
This is a fact that he rarely changed in the first half of his life, and now.
"We only have two-thirds of our troops now. Do you think we can still defend it?" Shiville carefully observed the murderous enemy troops under the city and said slowly, "I think they seem full of confidence today."
"Two-thirds must be guarded, and one-third must be guarded." Duke Kao seemed to be unconfused about why only two-thirds of the soldiers were soldiers. This was like a fact. The fact between them was accustomed to him, he looked at Shiville and said, "Shiville, I remember you are not a person, you will be afraid, a soldier."
He did not use women, but soldiers.
This is a high enough praise. It shows that he is willing to fight with the women beside him until death.
"General Du..." Xivil smiled faintly and said, "I heard that you fought alone in the past with three hundred Demacia heavy cavalry, with a sword rolling up. They slaughtered them all, and their temperament was comparable to the founding emperor. I wonder if I was lucky to meet today?"
"Yes." Dukekao pulled his sword.
The sun shines on his old and determined face.
The charm remains the same.
And the battle wind has already risen.
Under the city, the seven-confederate coalition finally slowly opened up, a new day of battle situation.
At the command of Commander-in-Chief Murphy, the first one was Demacia's attacking infantry and set foot on the front line of the battlefield.
During the siege of the city for many days, although Murphy had not made any achievements, he still had his own standards for the dispatch of the entire army. After all, he was also a general who had been in the Howling Swamp for many years and fought with the Noxus.
Although the seven major city-states are not subordinate to each other, they do not appear chaotic in the tense siege battle. Each city-state performs its own duties and proceeds with its own parts in an orderly manner.
First of all, the Demacians played the striker, and as the key part, they were on the front line. On the issue of who was playing the first wave of charge, Murphy did not use his privilege as the commander-in-chief to give other city-states a head-on, but fully utilized his courage as the first city-state in the mainland and took the lead.
Strengthening the morale of the army.
Immediately afterwards, the three major tribes of Snow Mountain carried out the second wave of charge, replacing the Demacians, and the small and flexible Bander City Yodels used their various exquisite tools and unique tactics to open up the gap.
Finally, there are two siege equipment troops composed of city-states representing the latest technology on the mainland, which can carry out long-range strikes at any time.
Everything can be said to be reasonable and perfect.
If there were no Denitz's pearls and jade in front, coupled with the unexpected tenacity of the Noxus, then Murphy would really be the new generation of war gods of Demacia and even the entire Valorland.
Unfortunately, there is no if.
The fact is that even with such a rigorous layout, he still did not capture Noxus City.
So much so that...
"Boom--" The violent gunfire was the first to open the curtain of the attack.
Before Demacia's infantry arrived at the wall, Zuan and Piltwolf's tech coalition took the lead in firing a round of Hex tech cannons.
The violent shells hit the old Noxus city, feedbacking the loud blasting and collapse.
Smoke and dust are everywhere.
In terms of momentum, it is also considered magnificent.
Unfortunately, it's useless.
Everyone has seen such a scene too many times. At the beginning, people were excited and felt that as long as one round of cannons fired, the gate of the Noxus Royal City would be opened and surrendered.
But the cruel facts of the first sixteen times warned them that this was just a beautiful firework.
Accompanied by these beautiful fireworks, Demacia soldiers stepped into the moat filled with voodoo, which had long been filled with corpses and dust.
The high-precision siege ladder from Zuan was set up, and the long and boring siege ceremony officially began.
Noxus threw down rolling stones filled with voodoo, and poisonous water.
The Seven Confederates also used Avarosa's long-range bow and arrow shooting and the short-range anti-aircraft guns in Bandel City to regain their colors.
Everything has come and goes back and forth, like the previous sixteen slow-motion replays.
The generals of both sides seemed absent-minded and did not pay much attention to the battlefield at all. On the contrary, they looked at places that did not belong to the battlefield at all.
It's like, waiting for something to happen. (To be continued...)
