Pivot of the Sky

Those four giant Ironclad beasts have been the men of the Cloud Dream for many years, and this time they have also been brought to the fortress, but they have not appeared in previous battles, and suddenly rushing against the walls at the final juncture plays a decisive role. After the battle ended, the cloud dream was reshaped, her delicate face had lost its blood color, she was not slightly injured, and she was tired of cramps.

Of course, Rafael was unharmed in the basement hall, but he was also pale and could barely stand there. As for the magicians, they can no longer fight.

This is not the only fortress where the battle of the day will take place, otherwise no matter how capable Raphael and Cloud Dream are, it will not stop the Giant Legion from devoting its full strength to the onslaught. As yesterday, the Salem Legion was out of the city again on that day, and the assembled army slowly advanced towards the battlefield. Philistine decided to remain vigilant but ignored it for the time being, concentrating on taking down the fortress.

The Salem Legion proceeded at a slow pace and stopped for lunch at noon, moving forward in the afternoon. Philistine looked at the fortress and was about to take it down. Of course, he refused to give up. He had enough troops to fight on two lines, so he ordered his men to line up against the enemy when the Salem Legion marched ten miles away, without which he would not care.

I didn't expect Salem Legion to be real this time.

When the battle against the city was most devastating, Philistines assembled a thousand knife shields and cavalry on the avenue against each other. It was at this point that another fortress suddenly responded, and Link opened the gate and rushed into the battlefield with 200 cavalry men. In his direction, Philistine also placed 500 knife shield soldiers on alert and immediately battled in a line.

The cavalry had a strong impact, but did not completely defeat the Giant Warrior's army formation with a heavy shield. Link also took ten magicians out of the city and sandwiched them in a cavalry for a magical attack. Philistine was not disturbed by Link's assault, and he believed that the formation of 500 giant knife shields could block those 200 cavalry men and gave the order of death.

Link left town because the situation in another fortress was critical, and he saw that it was impossible for the other trolley to move to attack his fortress, and that all the most fearful archers were out of battle, so he sent his cavalry out to fight. Link himself is also a great magician, assisted by ten more magicians, killed a man on his horseback as soon as he left town, killed hundreds of giant warriors and lost dozens of rides himself.

But the other side fought hard and the army was tight, and the cavalry could not sustain its impact. Link quickly ordered him to return to the city. Without battlefield experience, the cavalry was inevitably a little messy when it retreated, and the giant warriors took the opportunity to cover it up and stormed into the fortress gate. At this moment, suddenly a loud buzz had broken back into the city, and the first time Link had run the defensive front had launched a counterattack outside the city, and all the city guards had poured out to the city gate.

The gates were closed and all giant warriors who had broken into the gates were slaughtered or captured alive after a brawl. And the Giant Corps clerics attacked Rafael's fortress under Luthor's command, and the bowmen and stone throwers were all in that direction, temporarily unable to attack Link's fortress, and the Giant warriors outside the city had to back down and remain vigilant. The battle was also a shock.

……

When the four giant armored beasts eventually entered the battle, George led the army formation of the Salem Legion, looking far ahead to the giant army formation that Philistine had already set up. John whispered in the chariot: "Did you see their formation? Few cavalry soldiers, almost one-colored knife shields. ”

"Giant warriors have a lot of power, so watch out for the shotguns they throw when they hit within a hundred steps," said George. ”

John sighed: “Either way, it's time for a head-on fight, the best fighter ever. They have no catapults, no crossbowmen, no chariots, we can get from the barracks. ”

George nodded slightly: “Their horses are already few. Many parts of the Assyrian plateau are impassable. We must rely on the mighty plateau giants to carry the horses. It is impossible to have too many horse chariots and fewer cavalry. We must make good use of them. Their chariots were all mounted on high platforms for the crossbowmen to attack the fortress. Philistine was so confident that he wanted to use the knife shield infantry against our chariot attack? ”

John closed his eyes: “He has confidence in capital, and the Gun Shield Square, made up of giant warriors, is hard to deal with. Besides, now that he has transferred all his archers to attack the fortress, he should have been tired of shooting arrows for a day and can no longer go to war. Thanks to Raphael and Cloud Dream, it drained them of their most threatening fighting power. ”

George's original plan was to keep the two fortresses on top of each other for seven days, drain and restrain the Giant Legion's fighting power, rendering them powerless to storm the city of Salem for a short period of time, turning the victory into a war of attrition. Unexpectedly, the plan did not change quickly, and it was unexpected that the Philistines would be so fierce that they would stare at a fortress in a row, while Rafael and Cloud Dreamguard were so intransigent that they had already accomplished their anticipated goals ahead of schedule.

If we let the Giant Legion rest for a few more days to replenish its warfare supplies and continue this onslaught, the fortress will surely not hold. George and John had already prepared for the outing, and saw the situation march smoothly and the head-on showdown arrived ahead of schedule.

When the military formations of both sides were set apart at sunset, the battle for the siege was finally over, the fortress was not attacked for a day, the crossbows and rocks were exhausted, and the chariots and carts were held back, while another showdown was about to be fought. The most bitter people at this time were probably the clerics of the Legion of Giants, who had fought hard for a day to form a theological array to assist in the attack on the city, but now had to return to the Great Battle, and such two armies could not have fought without the help of clerics.

Philistine was already desperate when the battlefield was set apart, and the two armies he yearned for fought head-on came at a time he least wanted. He was waving the sword in an attempt to curse, suddenly listening to the horseshoe rumble, and the chariots of the Salem Legion suddenly launched an impact.

John swallowed it slowly as he marched, but until recently, he said he would fight, without a word of crap. The drums of war sounded, George flew halfway into the sky, and in the center of the Cold War Front were twelve clerics with staff, the twelve divisions. George has sent all the magicians to two fortresses, the twelve being the last available clerics in the city of Salem, capable not only of performing magic but also of melee attacks.

Each chariot was ridden by two maras, with a royal hand, a shuttleman with a shield knife, and a crossbowman. Arrows broke out in front of the battle, and the wings of the array were iron armor mounted to assist in the impact. After the arrow rain, the giant battlefield also threw a shuttle gun, and the horse hissed and screamed continuously. A general was seen waving a long sword under the crowd of protégés, jumping out of the chariot and heading straight for Philistine's position, and the shuttle gun fired at him was swept away by the wind.

This man was really stunned. He had already been killed by Philistine's guard in the blink of an eye. The two guards fought together. Philistine shouted and swept up: “Who are you? ”

The general drank, “John! ”

Immediately after a bright white light burst, huge energy shocks caused the surrounding warriors to fall, John had already fought with Philistines, and the chariot behind him crashed into the Giant Warrior's Gun Shield Square, and at dusk the slaughter fully unfolded.

Lu Shin, the main cleric of the Giant Legion, called bitterness in the dark. The other general, John, launched an appalling battle. Half the chariot jumped out of the car and walked into the army formation, involving the commander Philistines in a mixed battle, while the others could not get close. As the Great War had just broken out, the Commander himself was no longer in a position to command the army formation, and the responsibility for conducting the battle fell on his main cleric, which had not been anticipated.

The Salem Legion seemed to look at the inconsistent composition of the Giant Legion's ranks, launching an attack with a chariot, while the Ironclad Cavalry covered both wings of the chariot, which was the tactic most feared by the Infantry Square. Fortunately, the Giant Warrior Kong is powerful, and the huge shield in his hand is amazing and can resist for a while.

However, the time of the outbreak of the Great War was a bit wrong, it was almost dark, and the time would inevitably slip into conflagration, which was bad for the infantry in formation, and it was difficult to ensure the orderliness of the front and rear armies.

To think of it, Luthorn ordered the launch of a penetrating counter-attack, destroying the other party's clergy at any cost. Because he discovered that the other party had a great sorcerer in command of the entire army, but the number of clerics was small, with only twelve men forming to follow the chariot forward. Their position was too far ahead, and the other commander seemed to have made a mistake and should not have placed the clergy so close to the front.

There is a vacuum zone in the middle of the battlefield, where John fought Philistines, and the two General's pro-Government cavalry were repeatedly killed. Under Luthorn's command, the priests joined forces to provide all kinds of protection to the most elite giant warriors, bypassing this regiment and fighting back into the center of the Salem Legion Tank Formation.

After this burst, giant warriors threw shotguns at the Twelve Division, shooting shotguns like rain, and they could even pierce a wall dozens of steps away. And then something amazing happened, and the clerics wielded iron bars, and a thunderbolt was like a mesh of swordmen, and the shooting shotgun swept away, and they actually rushed over.

Laser wind sand and a fire appeared in front of the Twelve Warriors. The dust rolled up on the ground and made a loud noise on the shield of the Giant Warrior, making the Giant Warrior even unstable. George swung his staff down in the air, shooting countless white lights like arrows, and the Giant Legion backlash was crushed. Lu Shin was staring, what kind of cleric was that? He actually fought on the front!

The fighting between the two armies did not last long, but Russon had been waiting painstakingly for the accident of Commander Philistine. Once the center of the battlefield is broken, the whole army will have great morale. Philistine was irritable, and he didn't think that a great warrior would be able to fight himself directly through his own defense, and that this man would be divine, powerful energy impact erupted with the sword, and the thunderbolt of electric light caught his death.

Most highland giants are born with divine power, but everything is good and bad. Most of their brains are developed with simple limbs. Although they are much stronger than their samurai fighting power, it is difficult to cultivate to the upper order. The warriors of the Giant Legion, composed of the all-out plateau giants, were the elite of the Assyrian kingdom, but only two great warriors, former warring commander Hu Fei, had been injured while attacking the city, which allowed John to surprise the commander.

The clerics of the Giant Legion are not from the Giants of the Plateau, most trained Giants of the Plateau are samurai, and magicians are very rare. So Lu Shin commanded the army a little uncomfortable. Philistine wanted to settle the battle with John as soon as possible. He had eight levels of achievement and was stronger than the average eight warrior, with a heavy sword with the power of thunder. Unexpectedly, John was able to hold on, and his whole bone node burst with a manic force, touching hardly a scratch.

Soon after dark, the Salem Legion launched a chariot attack with casualties as well, leaving wreckage all over the wilderness, but they broke through the Giant Legion's double line of defense and backfired a counterattack. Lu Shin topped the battlefield behind him, all the soldiers shouted in a hush, arrows and arrows continued to fly, knife and rifle strikes, tank collisions with giant shields.

In the heart of the battle, a powerful energy surge broke out, and the two men turned apart and shot at their heads. Philistine finally made the most powerful blow, the giant sword struck John's sword with an arc, the two swords broke out of the gap, the impact shook them both backwards, and the commander finally escaped in the mixed war.

Lu Shin saw the scene and quickly ordered the trumpet to be blown, the last row of gun shields left a gap to push forward, the tired warrior in front of him as the tide and fought and retreated, he had to temporarily stabilize the foot at night to put an end to the chaos. At the same time, the Horn was heard in the Salem Legion, and tanks stopped fighting and the war ended with the advent of the night.

The outcome of this battle was overwhelming, and although the Salem Legion took advantage of the tactical arrangements, the Giant Legion still fought equally well with strong fighting power. With more than 300 casualties on both sides, combined with the casualties and depletion of the Strong Strike Fortress, the Legion of Titans has been unable to wave an attack and must retire afterwards. George was also powerless to counterattack Enrique, but he pushed the front between the two fortresses and reinforced the three-day fortress.

The battlefield situation made it difficult to tell the difference, but the result was a victory for Salem City. Although the battle did not defeat the Giant Legion, it reversed the overall posture of the battle, creating a lasting situation, guarding the front lines and preserving stability in the rear. And after the baptism of this battle, the generals of the Salem Army gained true confidence and became a force in the battlefield to fight hard.

Naturally, the worst part of the fighting was the fortress guarded by Rafael, where more than half of the 500 guards were killed and the remaining half were all wounded. Almost all the walls of the Giant Legion had been bombarded, and without the guardian of the Great Enchantment, a great warrior like John could have knocked down a great deal with all his strength.

The number of casualties among 3,000 Salem Legion fighters exceeded 900, an alarming figure, when the fortress was guarded and the two armies fought in columns. George is temporarily unable to resist the attack, and the Salem Legion is in dire need of rest.

But the urban population was inspired by an unprecedented degree of encouragement, because their own legions defeated the Giants and everyone saw them as a great victory! In the minds of the people, this was also the victory of Amon God, who walked into the temple without a date and offered sacrifices to the Goddess of Mu Yun and Amon God on the high stage. Then people heard the message of Amon God, and God inspired the people to have the confidence to build and defend their homes, and the city of Salem boiled once.

……

In the Garden of Eden, Amon learned about what had happened in the city of Salem through the idols in the temple. The principle of war with Enrique has long been established, and Ammon does not intend to intervene in the war unless George's command has made some mistake. Naturally, George did not make any mistake. Amon had long passed through the sandbox and, in his view, Philistine had made a mistake.

Philistines shouldn't be so aggressive about the fortress, and the smarter way to do this is to siege it for a long time, strike and deplete the reinforcements of the city of Salem, and the legions of giants are perfectly capable of doing so. But Philistine's defense of the fortress was underestimated, and it was difficult to ride a tiger in the end. Philistine, on the other hand, had to do the same, thinking of quick wins, resolving Enrique's supply in the plains and reluctance to confront Sarem for long periods, but George's World War I biased that outcome.

Now that the armies of both cities are at rest, no one can take a decisive blow. There will be no way for either side to defeat the other as long as there are no serious failures on the part of the commander, whether victorious or defeated, in the ensuing fighting. Unless there is a turning point in power contrast, this posture has taken shape and the complete elimination of the other party has become a plan that is neither compensable nor likely.

So much for the war, Amon Ben doesn't have to pay too much attention.

But Amon must be aware that when all hearts pray to his idol, a strange force is formed to “awaken” Amon from the world of the soul, as if the idol standing on the altar had opened its eyes. Amon finally understood one thing: the establishment of a temple to receive the sacrifices of the people, to enable the soul to draw on the power of life, and not without restrictions. His soul is disturbed and even compelled to look at it when everyone concentrates their faith on calling him.

For the first time, Amon was “forced” by the beliefs of the faithful to open his eyes on the altar of God, and the divine practice in the Garden of Eden was briefly disturbed. He draws on this power, and at this time he is “pinched” by it, which is also the price to be borne by nature. In that case, Amon simply lowered the message that inspired the people.

……

The festivities in the city state were only a minor episode, after which Amon continued to study in the Garden of Eden, and several more minor clashes erupted on the Tuuk Plains, as he had anticipated, but neither side was able to achieve a decisive victory and enter a state of mutual consumption. With this war, Amon's vision and attitude towards the world gradually developed a sense of superiority, and he was truly like a god that people could not see, but could feel.

But in a few days, another big thing happened, and George and Iso and others were unable to make a claim without asking for Amon God's guidance. Instead of coming to the Garden of Eden, they called upon the idols in the temple to pray, and Amon could hear their voices, and such calls had to be heeded.
