Pai City was originally a garrison fortress belonging to the Dusha Province. Of course, this Pai Fortress cannot be compared with the Wallen Fortress, which is known as the number one in the mainland. The level of defense fortifications is much simpler.

, but as a fortress, it also has a basic city wall and moat. Although the city wall is not very high or thick, the moat cannot even drown a child.

During the Far East Civil War, the Far East Army that was originally stationed here saw the rebellion spreading, and voluntarily abandoned it and ran away with the residents of the city. As a result, the city has changed its owners many times: various factions of the Far East rebels

The troops once stationed here and used it as a headquarters base to attack the Ilia Province. Soon the Black Flag Army troops led by Minghui recaptured it and used it as a logistics base for the crusade against the rebels. A large amount of military supplies were stored here.

; Then a large number of demon armies also came over in a big way. They regarded this place as a "station" and a resting point for the various armies of the Demon Kingdom on their way from the kingdom's mainland to the front line of Wallen Fortress. And now.

, the latest owner of the fortress is the Central Army led by Commander Sterling - if the fortress is sentient, it may feel very honored, because this small town, which has always been inconspicuous in the border provinces, will become a great city in the future.

The name "Battle of Pai" went down in history and attracted the attention of the whole continent.

Because the army of Prince Caton of the demon race arrived in time at the last moment and blocked the west bank of the Gray Water River. Under this situation, it was impossible for the Central Army's army to cross the river and continue to retreat westward. In order to avoid staying in the plains

The area was undefendable and in danger of being surrounded by enemies on all sides. Sterling had to withdraw his troops to the city of Pai, and prepared frantically for war. He was busy reinforcing the city walls and digging deep moats before the enemy troops arrived, waiting for that moment.

arrival.

At dusk that day, some stubborn black shadows began to be spotted from the direction of the Gray Water River in the west. The whole city sounded the alarm, blew the bugle, the cavalry prepared their horses, and the infantry boarded the castle. Everything began to take place. There was silence at the front.

Only the wind blows the big flag, making a sudden sound.

The enemy soldiers and horses gradually approached, and they could even be seen with the naked eye.

This was the first demon army that appeared. They were equipped with long bows, spears, and swords. After crossing the Gray Water River, they swarmed in, spread out a long crescent formation, and surrounded Payi from the west.

The castle. The cloud-like demon soldiers, the mountain of swords and the forest of swords, are like a dark forest. Countless waving flags cover the sky and earth in the west - these are not the main force of the alliance between the demons and the Far East rebels.

The horses are nothing more than an advance team composed of 100,000 demon Senean soldiers, led by the demon Prince Caton.

The enemy stopped three kilometers away from the city and began to set up camp. You could clearly see the ferocious faces of the demon soldiers with gaping teeth. A dozen demon cavalry drove their horses to the nearby city and gesticulated and shouted for a while.

, making faces and gestures, waving the ghost-headed spear in his hand to intimidate, a cavalryman even got off his horse and urinated in the direction of the city. As for what they said - Zichuan Xiu heard it clearly, but he didn't want to repeat it. The cavalrymen were very worried.

He was cautious and did not enter the bow and arrow range of the city.

Night fell, but the sky was not dark, because all the villages, houses, and manors around Pai City that were visible to the naked eye were burned down by fire. The smoke was rising, and the fire was soaring into the sky, reflecting the red sky at night.

Flocks of frightened birds flew up from forests and ponds, circling around and screaming sadly.

All the woods close to the city were cut down. This was to facilitate future attacks and to build the demon camp. Prince Caton's troops worked all night and lit countless anointing fires. The camp was full of light.

The sound of clanking sound was loud until dawn. The woods under the city turned into a bare flat land, and a huge structure appeared in the open space five miles away. A small wooden city began to take shape.

——Although it cannot keep up with the size of Pai City, the speed and efficiency of the demon engineering troops are still amazing.

Sterling prohibited the troops from attacking, allowing the demon vanguard to complete their mission without interruption.

During this night, follow-up troops of the demon clan continued to arrive. The second, third, tenth, and one hundredth armies began to appear one after another. Countless torches appeared on the dark horizon, forming a chain after another.

A band of light, the band of light is getting longer and closer, but the end of it is still impossible to see. It stretches all the way to the distant horizon. The countless light spots on the ground mix with the starlight, and finally it is like a river flowing into the sea. These countless

The moving light points all gathered under Pai City and merged into a vast ocean.

Dawn has arrived, allowing people to see the enemy troops clearly, and it is shocking: there is no formation anymore. In the early morning mist, countless teams of soldiers and horses are crowded together, making it difficult to distinguish who is who. The gathered queues are along the

The endless crowds of people and horses were so dark that the edges could not be seen with the naked eye. These densely packed soldiers and horses were like mountains one after another. The towering and heavy legs moved outside Pai City, and the entire castle and camp were all there.

Under the endless pressure, Suosuo trembled.

The soldiers of the royal army held their breaths and watched the powerful appearance of the demon clan, their hearts beating wildly. Because the enemy's face was so ferocious and terrifying, and their number was so large, it was like an endless ocean, and here

The clouds covering the sky above the ocean are countless flying flags. As far as people can see, they are surrounded by heads.

This is the biggest showdown between humans and demons. Since the beginning of the war, Zichuan's number one general, who has been invincible, will encounter the strongest army of demons and all the troops of the Far East rebels. Both sides are masters, who will fight against whom?

They are all formidable enemies. In the upcoming head-on battle, who will defeat whom?

At the head of the Demon Clan's formation, Prince Caton, Duke Ludi, Sir Yun Qianxue, Count Bulla and other legion commanders along the way watched with cold eyes, looking at the towering Pai Castle looming in the mist, feeling in their hearts

He was measuring: "My most powerful opponent is here! This is the last battle! As long as we deal with him, our army will be in peace!"

It can be predicted that this desperate battle between the two armies will be very cruel and protracted. But the result is not difficult to predict: the Sterling Army plus the Xiuzi Battalion have less than 100,000 troops, while the other side leads

Almost all the rebel groups in the Far East, from the most remote Shaka to all the civilian army units in the vast area under Wallen City, followed by the demon kingdoms from Demon Castle, Senea, and Gula

, the proud and powerful generals of Azoda, countless soldiers like smoke and sea from all grasslands, valleys, forest areas, villages, towns, and farms.

This can simply be called the largest racial exhibition, as if all the monsters in nightmares have turned into entities and appeared in front of people:

The dark-skinned low-level Seneian demon soldiers jumped out and gnashed their teeth and yelled, making a commotion. They were not tall, but they were fierce, full of energy, and full of aggression. They were all planning to commit a lifelong crime after breaking the city.

The unforgettable massacre made me tremble with excitement. They are famous for their three characteristics: cruelty, strength and stupidity, and they firmly believe that ignorance is power - anyway, it is not their turn to do things with their brains. They are high-level demons

Things to worry about;

The tall orcs with thick hair watched the performance of the demon soldiers indifferently, and while they were busy eating their corn clappers for breakfast, they did not forget to pray - they are the most superstitious, afraid of gods, lightning and everything that cannot be done.

They understand things. Compared with the demons, they have a gentler personality. As long as no one else deliberately provokes them, they also attach great importance to the sense of honor of warriors and the race. When fighting, they often charge very bravely, but as long as they fight

After more than an hour, they will be very tired and will be very decisive in running away;

The snake soldier has a head like a snake, the upper body is very similar to a human, with two hands, but the lower body is the body of a snake, with its tail twisting around in the mud, and its squinting red eyes showing cunning and cunning.

Suspicious, he made a harsh "chichi" sound when he spoke, stuck out his sharp tongue, and walked around pretending to be solemn, but was despised by others: In the Battle of Valen, the Snake Clan Army

They were the first ones to escape, and in the subsequent battles with Sterling, what they did fully proved the truth: the snake clan's ability to escape is actually much better than their ability to fight. Now

They are trying to prove to other races: Our brave Busai warriors are not afraid of a guy named Sterling at all! Didn’t you see that we are here? We even dared to shout loudly less than ten kilometers away from him

He cursed Sterling and even dared to spit on his name and then step on him! How amazing this is!

The soldiers of the dragon team were silently sizing up the city, as if they were weighing how powerful their future opponents would be. It is said that their arm strength is more terrifying than the tall orcs. Their body and limbs are very similar to humans, but

The head is very similar to a crocodile, if you want to compare it. But according to the dragon people, it is an elephant dragon, some kind of mythical creature that soars into the clouds and rides on the mist in ancient legends. They claim that their ancestors are dragons.

Produced with the reproduction of human beings, so they call themselves dragon people - no one knows the basis for this statement, because no one has really seen a dragon, but when a dragon man stares at you silently and gloomily, the huge

The lower jaw opens and closes to reveal sharp teeth - at this time, no matter what he says, you'd better believe it. Dragon people are taciturn and don't like to communicate with people from other races. They are tough and good at fighting, very united and can fight a war.

They are silent no matter whether they attack or fight. They can be regarded as the most terrifying tribe among the races in the Far East, but fortunately they are not many in number.

The most terrifying main elite race in the demon army is the mid-level demon race known as "armored beasts". They are tall, usually more than two meters tall, and their bodies are covered with hard scales and hard shells. These scales

Their defensive power is even comparable to human armor, and they are extremely powerful, but their brains are not better than those of low-level demons. Their superiority is their combat power. But their shortcomings are that they are not fast and move slowly. In previous wars, humans have realized

I realized how terrifying this opponent is: they are best at frontal assaults, and can easily break through any square formation no matter how solid it is. They are the most suitable vanguard troops, and only human heavy armored cavalry can confront them head-on.

But among the demon clan, those who occupy the most dominant position are the high-level demon clan (also called the royal family). In appearance, the demon clan's royal family is no different from humans, but they possess terrifying power.

But it is not something that ordinary humans can achieve. They are a perfect combination of strength and wisdom. Almost every male royal child is born a master of martial arts without training, and has extremely strong comprehension ability-especially easy among the royal family of the demon clan.

The emergence of that kind of super master - extremely agile, extremely intelligent, cruel and ruthless, with a lifespan of up to 150 years: this is a terrifying and almost perfect race, but it is not easy for this race to reproduce

Therefore, the number of people is always very rare. Even when the population of the Demon Kingdom was at its peak, there were no more than a hundred males in the royal family. Moreover, they liked to fight with each other and it was difficult for them to be united - this is really a demon.

The misfortune of the race is the great blessing of mankind.

In addition to them, there is also a team of dwarves in the army: it is really funny to see these bearded little men who are less than the height of a human waist staggering closer, but the axes in their hands

Don't think it's funny to fight with heavy swords: even if you use a stainless steel shield to block it, the wrist of an average human will be broken; there are also countless elves and monsters with kind personalities, and they are popular among the military of all races.

There are magical servants who are good at caring for weapons and serving their masters...

This is a war in which almost all races on the continent join forces to fight against humans. Under their siege, Pai City is like a lonely boat in the sea, swaying as if it may capsize at any time. At this time, not only the demons think so, but even the Imperial Capital

I also have an unfortunate premonition: Pai City, surrounded by proud warriors of demons and rebels, will become the final burial grave of hundreds of thousands of heroes and famous generals of the Zichuan family!

※※※

On the top of the city, both officers and soldiers looked at this unprecedented large army, the heads undulating like the sea, the mountains of swords and swords growing like dense forests, and the flags fluttering like clouds. Their faces were all expressionless.

Turning white, there was a look of horror in his eyes, and he was thinking about the same question in his mind: "How long can I live?" This is a terrible storm, both for the entire great Zichuan family and for them personally.

It is a test of life and death, survival and destruction.

At this time, Sterling, the commander of the Central Army, was inspecting the defenses on the top of the city. He carefully noticed that the battlements of the west city wall were too thin and needed to be reinforced. He personally directed the soldiers to work and made vulgar jokes with the soldiers.

He said to a soldier: "It's better to go home and play with your wife!" Everyone laughed loudly. His calmness infected the soldiers and officers, and everyone believed that this commander who had always been invincible,

He will definitely take everyone home well. Wherever he goes, people gather their courage and ignite their hopes, but no one sees the anxiety in Sterling's eyes behind his cheerful smile.

When he walked to the defensive area of ​​​​Xiuziying, Sterling's smile faded. He saw Zichuan Xiu lying on the chopping block and didn't know what he was writing. He walked over and asked: "What are you doing?"

Zichuanxiu didn't even raise his head: "I'm writing a will!" He said to himself: "Zi will leave all my movable properties, real estate, bonds, stocks, cash and other properties to Miss Zichuan Ning. The total property is converted into a total...

Zi Chuanxiu raised his head and thought for a moment, with the same expression as those rich people who have no idea how much they are worth: "...eight yuan and five cents."

Sterling couldn't laugh or cry: "You...really." His tone turned serious: "There is one thing I have been hiding from everyone: we can't have reinforcements coming. The family has been severely weakened, and now it can barely hold on to Wallen Fortress.

That’s right, there is absolutely no way we can spare the effort to send millions of troops to rescue us.”

Zi Chuanxiu continued to write: "Oh, I understand - will there be breakfast available tomorrow?"

Sterling straightened up: "Don't be joking. Promise me: when you get the chance, you will never worry about us and get away on your own - you are here for me. If you make any mistake, how should I explain it to Miss Ning?"

Zichuanxiu didn't even raise his head: "I'm not the only one who has the ability to kill, right?"

Sterling shook his head and said: "I can't do this. The one hundred thousand soldiers of the Central Army came to this place of death because they trusted me. Even if I can't bring them back to the imperial capital alive, I can at least die with them."

"

"And you think I can just abandon you?" Zi Chuanxiu raised his head and stuffed the suicide note into his pocket: "Well, I have already made up my mind to donate the underwear to the national treasury, so maybe they
