Chapter 202: Surround without attacking, rogue tactics
As soon as the two sides fought, there was an earth-shaking noise.

This kind of attack, even at the imperial level, is enough to be called a strategic strike.

If used well, this move could defeat an army.

However.
The meteorites falling from the sky were blown up one by one. There was no skill involved. It was just a simple head-on collision, using force to blow them up.

Although the meteorite that was blown into pieces still had considerable power, it had lost its due lethality to the Eternal Night Warriors.

An extremely large magic circle that consumed a huge amount of resources to set up.

Dozens of ninth-level warriors and a demigod were sacrificed, paying such a huge price, but in the end, not only did they not severely damage the Eternal Night Legion, they didn't even hurt a single soldier.

Even the generals of the alliance did not originally pin their hopes on this attack, thinking that they could severely damage the army of the Eternal Night Empire with just one move.

After all, there is a saying: Respect your opponent, and you respect yourself.

The Eternal Night Army had previously swept all the way, forcing the army of the Hundred Nations Alliance to flee in panic. If they were weak, then what was the purpose of the Hundred Nations Alliance that they defeated?

But even so, it is a bit too much that no one was injured.

“Hahaha, is this your trump card? We sacrificed a demigod and dozens of ninth-level warriors, and got such an outcome. To be honest, I feel it’s not worth it for them to get such an outcome. It would be better for them to rush out and fight head-on. Maybe they can take one or two away from us.” A legion commander who had reached the ninth-level holy realm looked at the city wall. Through the dust in the air, he seemed to see the generals on the wall and laughed loudly and wantonly.

Upon seeing this, the Eternal Night Army also laughed, as if they were mocking the Hundred Nations Alliance for overestimating its own capabilities.

"If you really can't do it, you should just surrender." Another general also laughed and said, "This world is a world of the strong. Now that the empire's army is at the gates of the city, it is normal that you can't defeat us. It's not shameful. It's your honor to believe in our Lord. Why resist so much!"

The fight has reached this point, and the two sides have already reached an irreconcilable conflict.

Surrender is even more impossible.

Those who wanted to surrender had already surrendered, and those who are left now are all the most determined resistance factions.

However, this did not prevent the generals of the Eternal Night Empire from taking this opportunity to shake their determination to fight.

He recognized the Alliance generals' will to resist, but what about others?

Even in this extraordinary world, the main force of the army is still those seemingly ordinary warriors.

After losing so many games and facing almost impossible-to-beat opponents, are the wills of these fighters really that strong?

It's not that he looks down on the Alliance's warriors.

But it is a very realistic problem. We can’t win. We really can’t win.

This was a battle with a huge disparity in strength, and there was no way the Alliance could win.

Faced with a future of inevitable failure, as long as he remains human, he will be shaken, it’s just a matter of more or less.

"Damn bastard!"

The alliance general had an annoyed look on his face, his eyes were as sharp as swords, if looks could kill, the general of the Eternal Night Empire would have died a hundred times over.

"Everyone, I won't say any more nonsense. You can see the current situation. We have almost no chance of winning."

He turned to look at the silent soldiers and said in a deep voice: "But if we can't win, do we have to surrender? We are the most honorable warriors on this land. We have always been the masters of this land. Why should we surrender to a bunch of barbarians?"

The army of the Hundred Nations Alliance is different from that of the Eternal Night Empire, and the most fundamental point is the issue of affiliation.

If the Eternal Night Army belongs to the Empire, then the Alliance Army belongs to the nobles.

The elite warriors of the imperial army could be nobles, commoners, or even servants.

The elite warriors of the alliance army could never be civilians, but were most likely nobles.

This is not discrimination, but a very real problem.

The empire owns vast tracts of land and has multiple channels to obtain resources. They are not short of resources, so even if it is a servant, as long as they show the corresponding talent for cultivation, the empire will train them.

The alliance cannot do this, not to mention that they do not have such abundant resources. Even if they do have them, they will not give them to others because in their opinion, this is a waste.

In other words, most of today's elite warriors are actually from the aristocratic class.

The general of the kingdom looked at them and shouted, "Brave warriors, are you willing to surrender to a group of barbarians, or are you willing to fight them to the death? Even if you die, you must bite off a piece of meat."

After hearing what he said, the soldiers, who were already a little excited, immediately became excited and shouted in unison:
"Fight to the death and never retreat."

"Fight to the death and never retreat."

"Fight to the death and never retreat."

The enthusiastic response resounded through the sky and spread throughout the entire battlefield.

"Old Li, it seems your trash talk is useless. The shouting from the other side is getting louder!" an imperial general joked.

The imperial general who had spoken earlier snorted and sneered, "I never thought that I could make them surrender with just a few words. Besides, we have gathered so many legions here. If they surrender directly, wouldn't it be boring?"

"That makes sense. A war of this magnitude has never been seen before. Even the previous Trial of God was not as exciting as this. I don't know if there will be another war in the future. If they surrender directly, I will be a little unhappy!"

"war!"

The mutual trash talk did not interfere with the continuation of the battlefield. After a gust of wind, the dust settled and the two sides continued to fight each other.

One after another, magic cannons were activated, and high-quality crystals burned as if they were free.

The energy cannon that was powerful enough to shatter everything bombarded the city, but it could not shake the city's defenses at all.

But it's normal. As the top power in the northern continent, the Kingdom of Lenissa has run its royal city for hundreds of years. If it were so easy to be breached, it would be a bit of an underestimation of them.

The Eternal Night Empire was not in a hurry at all and did not organize its legions to launch a siege. Instead, it continued to use cannons to consume the city's defense system.

The Eternal Night Warriors are indeed not afraid of death, but they cannot die in vain.

Sending soldiers to attack the city before breaking through its defense system is no different from sending them to their deaths.

Since they want to consume, let them consume.

Let’s see who can outlast whom!

Although it is a large-scale expedition, the Eternal Night Empire is fully confident in its logistics, and there will be no problem spending at least a year and a half here.

The Alliance had no intention of taking the initiative to go out of the city to fight, but simply used the previously established defense system to resist the attack of the Eternal Night Army.

After all, they are not stupid. There are so many elite warriors in the Eternal Night Empire.

If a head-on battle really breaks out, we won't have any chance of winning. Instead of that, we might as well continue to consume our energy.

So, the two sides, each with their own ideas, started to fight each other. Although it sounds simple, in fact, the scene is very terrifying.

Forbidden spell strike, legion gathering strike, meteor strike
Any one of them is enough to be called a strategic strike and has the ability to reverse the situation on the battlefield.

At least that's the case for the foreign friends who were watching the game.

too crazy.

They didn't understand very much.

It’s no wonder that the Eternal Night Empire is so powerful, but why can this indigenous force, which has no favor from the gods, be so powerful?

How on earth did they develop like this? This is too outrageous!
Looking at the scene below, they felt a little crazy.

"Yongye, aren't you going to help? Looking at the situation, it may take a while for your believers alone to take over this city." The martial artist chuckled after taking a look at the situation on the battlefield.

"No need, just watch. When I can't hold it back anymore, I'll take action." Su Xingyu glanced at him, shook his head, and rejected his suggestion.

From the beginning to the end, unless it was absolutely necessary, Su Xingyu would not interfere with the power of his clan members.

Even though his actions could reduce a lot of trouble and allow the empire to develop more smoothly, Su Xingyu still didn't like to take action. He just watched from the side and let the Eternal Night Empire do it on its own.

This is very different from other players.

Most players attach great importance to the power of their clans. If their actions can reduce the casualties of their clans, they will not hesitate at all.

It’s hard to say who is right or wrong.

After all, everyone is an individual and has different views on how to develop clan power.

Su Xingyu didn't know how others viewed the power of the clan. To him, the power of the clan was not a glass ball, but his right-hand man who could grow with him.

Since he is the left and right arm, he must naturally have sufficient strength.

How can we grow up without going through some hardships?

So unless it would cause heavy losses, Su Xingyu would not help even if they died in front of him.

And it is obvious that it is still far from meeting the standard of major losses.

The two sides fought each other for nearly seven days, and the alliance finally couldn't hold on any longer.

Although this is their home ground, defending the city would be relatively easier than for the Eternal Night Army.

The Eternal Night Army needs to consider when the troops in the city will rush out, but they don’t need to, because even if the Eternal Night Army launches a surprise attack, they must first resolve the city’s defense system.

But for the time being, even if the Eternal Night Army is very powerful, it is impossible to break through the defense system they have built over many years, so they can be more peaceful when they rest.

However, this was only a theoretical situation. In reality, the Alliance army was besieged in the city, facing the bombardment of magic artillery at all times. A large number of black-armored warriors were watching closely below, ready to launch an attack at any time.

And there is a dark future that seems to have no end.

It can be said that every day they spend now is so torturous.

The pressure in my heart is too great.

You can't live, and you can't die.

If I have to describe it in one word, it would be frustrating.

In this atmosphere, some Alliance soldiers were almost crazy and wanted to rush out and fight the Eternal Night Army.

The worst possible outcome is death.

Anyway, judging from the current situation, they are doomed to die, so why should they endure this torture?

It can be said that as time goes by, the morale of the alliance soldiers drops by one point every day.

I have to say that humans are truly a magical species.

Sometimes, out of passion, they would do something bizarre that would make them feel terrified when they think back on it.

For example, a fight to the death.

The current Alliance soldiers are still willing to continue fighting to the death with the Eternal Night Army, but as time goes by, when they calm down, they may not be willing to do so anymore.

The generals of the alliance naturally discovered this, but they had no good solution.

A temporary meeting hall.

"Everyone, whether it's fighting, surrendering, or breaking out, there must be a result today. We can't drag it on any longer, otherwise the soldiers will collapse before the Eternal Night army attacks the city." Bell, an important general of the alliance, looked at everyone and said with a firm gaze.

"Damn it, they have so many troops and they keep using magic cannons every day, how can they sustain the consumption?" A great noble cursed loudly, he really couldn't understand why he and his men, who had been defending the city and preparing for so long, would be the first to collapse.

"What's the point of talking about this now? Let's make a decision quickly. The army has begun to become turbulent. If we delay for a few more days, we won't even have the right to choose." Another nobleman said unhappily.

"Those bastards from the Eternal Night Empire are so cruel! I thought they would attack violently, but I didn't expect..." A general had a very gloomy face. The Eternal Night Empire's fighting style this time was completely different from before.

If they continue to attack, no matter how fiercely, the Alliance is not afraid. As mentioned before, the worst that can happen is death.

The result is that they are now surrounding the city without attacking, and slowly wearing down the will of the soldiers in the city. This is really disgusting.

No matter how determined a soldier is, he will inevitably become shaken after facing such a situation for a long time.

"Surrender is impossible. I'd rather die than surrender. If any of you want to surrender, then wait until I die in battle." A ninth-rank peak burly man looked at the crowd with a cold gaze. Even though these people were his companions, he was not polite at all: "Before I die, whoever dares to surrender, I will use his head as a sacrifice!"

"We'd rather die than surrender. The battle has come to this point. If we surrender again, all our previous sacrifices will be in vain. It's just a death. Let's fight them to the death!" Another ninth-rank general responded immediately.

"You." A great noble looked at them with a pale face.

"Grand Duke, what do you think?" Someone looked at the noble with a cold gaze and asked softly.

"I"

The noble felt a chill all over his body. He realized that things seemed to be beyond his expectations. "I don't know anything about military affairs. I will listen to you."

"Thank you for your support, Your Excellency the Duke."

Everyone withdrew their gazes, looked at each other, and nodded slightly, as if they had reached some kind of agreement.

"Fight."

"Let this city become our cemetery!"
