Chapter 904: Why betray 906"I'm not at all worried that these demons will defect or break up...I even look forward to it, They will do it." Looking at the demon phalanx that was constantly advancing in the distance, another Alanhill officer who was also watching the battle on another high ground said to his adjutant.
"Unfortunately, they have no intention of escaping." The adjutant glanced coldly at the army of demon servants who were attacking in the distance, and said to his superior.
"Yeah, it's a pity." The leading officer nodded slightly, and said with some dissatisfaction, "Who would have thought that the army of the demons would be so cruel, but the civilians of the demons were cowardly, and even I don't have the courage to escape or break up."
"After all, they also have to consider the consequences." The adjutant sneered, took his eyes back from the distant phalanx, and looked towards himself The commander said: "The punishment mechanism is not a joke."
"Anyway, those noble generals have a lot of experience in this area." The general who was a Serris sergeant , disdainly laughed.
As a general who has been promoted all the way from a low-level non-commissioned officer to a major general, he does not despise those "old officers" who came from aristocratic backgrounds.
In the army of the Alanhill Empire, those who fought with the emperor Your Majesty in his early years, later attended the military academy, and then were promoted to high-level commanders belonged to the most important faction.
The representatives of this faction include Vagron, the only marshal of the empire, Walter and Lester and the others.
As for the officers of the noble faction, the representatives are Wilkes, Medeas and the others.
Arming the demons and forming the demon servant army was proposed by several generals in the old nobles. And the insurance they set up for the demon servant army is to escape one demon servant army and kill three demon prisoners.
The original suggestion was to kill two demon captives, but later it was changed to three because some people thought the killing was not cruel enough.
With such an insurance mechanism, the surrendered demons will have to weigh up if they want to escape. Whether Alanhill is willing to continue to accept the surrender of demons depends on their performance.
As they spoke, the two sides on the battlefield were already fighting bloody. The city wall of the castle was bombarded by the cannons of the Alanhill Empire, and the soldiers of the Demon Servant Army had already entered the castle through these gaps.
The two sides fought fiercely at the gap in the city wall. The strong demon soldiers and the well-equipped demon civilians fought together, and the fight was inextricable for a while.
On the one hand, the main force of the demons was almost wiped out by Alanhill, and the rest of the troops were second-rate, and their battle strength was not as strong as before.
On the other hand, these demon civilians trained by Alanhill had an advantage in military strength and better weapons, so with these advantages, they rushed into the castle little by little.
Gold and iron clamored, the long sword hit the shield, the shield hit the armor, the soldiers on both sides were densely packed and crowded together, using the most primordial method to decide the winner.
A demon soldier chopped down a servant demon soldier with a rusted axe, and then he himself was pierced by several long swords at the same time.
The long sword forged by the Alanhill Empire is extremely sharp, even in the hands of demon civilians, it can instantly kill experienced demon soldiers.
Every second, people on both sides fell in a pool of blood. Black's blood flowed on the broken city wall, seeped into the cracks of the masonry, and splashed people's cheeks.
"Kill!" On the battlefield, the shouting for courage was mixed with the rumbling sound of cannons. Alanhill's new minions proved their worth in the first battle.
"bang!" On the other side of the gap in the city wall where the two sides were fighting, the artillery fire of the Alanhill Empire began to extend fire into the castle.
The shells exploded in the castle one after another, and the demon soldiers who reinforced the gap in the city wall fell one by one under the cannon fire.
Because the follow-up troops could not be reinforced in time, the demon defenders who blocked the gap in the city wall finally couldn't support it.
They were slashed down by the long sword in the hands of the army soldier, the demon servant of the Alanhill Empire, and the bodies were piled up like sandbags in the gaps in the city wall.
Finally, as if it was the last straw that broke the camel's back, when the demon commanders of the servant army rushed up the gentle slope of the ruins of the city wall, the other side's line of defense finally collapsed.
Countless demon servants in heavy armor stepped on the corpses of the fallen demon soldiers, held their long swords high, and roared into the castle that had been bombarded beyond recognition.
The demon guards crowded in the castle resisted desperately. Many demon soldiers discovered in horror at this time that the opponents they faced were actually demons with faces looking sinister just like them.
"Why... why do you... betray the great source of magic?" A demon soldier with a long sword on his chest, spitting black blood, still asked the demon servants in front of him inexplicably. army soldier.
No one answered him, because these demon servants trained by Alanhill had been emphasizing collective and discipline for the past fifteen days. They seldom speak. When there is a problem, they have to raise their hands to signal, and only open their mouths with permission.
"For the great source of magic!" On the other side, a demon defender wielded a long sword and chopped down two army soldiers who rushed towards him. He frantically took the weapon in his hand. , Relying on his height, Martha guarded a corridor.
"Form a formation! Form a formation!" Seeing that one's own soldiers were unable to break through the opponent's line of defense for a while, the demon officer in the servant army behind him hurriedly ordered loudly.
Accompanied by his shouts, the demon soldiers of the servant army in the front formed a thick wall with their shields.
Then, from the gap in the shield, a long sword sticks out like the thorns on a hedgehog.
They approached the opponent step by step, and when the opponent had no way to retreat, they suddenly stabbed a deadly sword.
The other party did not sit still and stabbed the long sword in his hand into the gap of the shield.
It's a pity that the long sword stabbed out of the gap in the shield penetrated the body of the demon guard soldier, but the demon defender stabbed the long sword in the gap of the shield, but didn't stab anything.
This tall and strong demon defender fell down unwillingly, and then he was trampled under his feet with his warm corpse.
The battle for this castle barely ended until lunch was about to start. The 3,000 Alanhill demon servants who participated in the attack took 900 casualties in the end before they captured the castle, which had been bombed beyond recognition.
