From Baron's Second Son to Dragon Rider

Chapter 184 Battle of Jade Valley (I)

The capital of the Emerald Kingdom, the Emerald Valley.

The Emerald Valley was no longer as peaceful and prosperous as it was in the past. With the fall of the three fortresses on the northwest border of the Emerald Kingdom, the entire northwest region was like a lamb to be slaughtered by the Mountain Copper Kingdom, allowing them to do whatever they wanted.

Some wealthy and powerful nobles sent their relatives and family members to other neighboring countries in an attempt to keep their families going.

The soldiers who escaped from the northwest battlefield gathered together and discussed the reasons for the failure of this war and the future direction in groups of three or five.

"Have you heard? Our King has sent envoys to various neighboring countries to ask for help, but has not received any response so far!"

An old soldier with a tired face said.

"Yes, I also heard that the army of the Mountain Copper Kingdom has approached our capital. Now almost everyone wants to escape from here. Now a ticket to the sea is hard to come by!"

Another soldier echoed.

"Then what should we do? Are we just going to sit and wait for death?"

A young soldier asked anxiously.

"Don't worry, young man. The dragon knights are still here, and so is the king. We still have hope!"

An older soldier consoled.

"Ding... Ding... Ding."

Just when everyone was chatting happily, they heard the sound of the soldiers stationed on the city wall ringing the alarm bell.

"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!!"

The archers who were scouting on the watchtower shouted loudly about the enemy attack, trying to get everyone to come back to their senses from their original scattered state and prepare for the next battle.

"Everyone, get on the city wall! The rest will be ready for backup and rescue work on both sides of the city gate.

Three thousand meters west of the Emerald Valley, the army of the Mountain Copper Kingdom surged towards the direction of the Emerald Valley like a torrent of steel.

They wore heavy copper armor, held sharp weapons, and marched in unison, firmly and powerfully. They were an elite army that had fought hundreds of battles.

On the battlefield, drums sounded like thunder, and horns resounded through the sky.

The infantry formed a dense phalanx and advanced step by step.

Their shields gleamed with metallic light, forming an indestructible line of defense.

The cavalry galloped on the flanks, their lances flashing coldly in the sun, ready to attack the defense line of the Emerald Kingdom at any time.

The earth magicians of the Mountain Copper Kingdom played their due role. They used magic to construct a ladder made of mud, which made the Emerald Kingdom The walls of the kingdom were like nothing.

The magicians of the Emerald Kingdom also cast various magical spells, such as earthquake spells, explosion spells, etc., which destroyed many stairs and brought great pressure to the army of the Mountain Copper Kingdom.

The soldiers of the Emerald Kingdom naturally did not show weakness. They relied on the city walls and fought hard against the attack of the Mountain Copper Kingdom.

The archers stood on the city walls and shot arrows like rain at the enemy camp.

This was not an ordinary upward shot. Each archer soldier was at the level of an apprentice knight, and there was a formal knight for every ten people.

The arrows were attached with fighting spirit and could easily penetrate several soldiers wearing heavy copper armor.

Although the main force of the Emerald Kingdom's army was seriously injured in the northwest, it was more than enough to defend the Jade Valley.

And he Most of them are elite soldiers who survived the battlefield. Each of them has more or less a few skills. From the perspective of individual combat effectiveness, they are naturally much stronger than the soldiers of the Mountain Copper Kingdom.

Just for this distance of 3,000 meters, the Mountain Copper Kingdom did not know how many soldiers' lives it had to reach the outer wall of the Jade Valley.

Since the enemy has reached the outside of the city wall, it is naturally the white-hot stage of the war.

The soldiers of both sides fought desperately on the city wall, and the bloody smell filled the air.

The sound of swords and swords, the collision of armor, and the shouts of soldiers built a bloody curtain of the battlefield.

The lower-level soldiers have their battlefields, and those powerful knights naturally have their corresponding enemies.

The Frost Wolf Marquis organized the people of the Golden Grand Duchy, and they will be in the form of the Knights. The identity of the enemy was to kill outside the city to stop the enemy's offensive.

The high-end combat power of the Emerald Kingdom has been almost lost due to the fall of the Northwest Land. At present, the only organized knights that the Emerald Kingdom can show off are the knights under the command of the major dukes.

As the Golden Grand Duchy, which has preserved the most intact strength, it is natural to stand up and contribute its own strength to this war at this critical moment.

The number of soldiers in the Mountain Copper Kingdom is far greater than that in the Jade Valley. Moreover, the Mountain Copper Kingdom is currently in high morale and strong, and it needs a surprise force to give them a head-on blow, defeat their spirit, and buy a breathing space for the people of the Emerald Kingdom.

As the city gate slowly opened, the Mountain Copper Kingdom soldiers who didn't know what happened outside subconsciously wanted to rush in.

However, they didn't know what fate was waiting for them.

At this moment, a low and majestic command sounded:

"Charge!"

This order was like thunder in the plain, scaring the soldiers.

Then, a passionate shout rang out:

"Kill!"

Instantly, the rumbling sound of horse hooves and shouts of killing came from the city.

The people of the Golden Duchy raised their lances and rushed towards the soldiers of the Mountain Copper Kingdom outside the city like a group of ferocious lions.

Though those soldiers were elite, they were still just ordinary soldiers. How could the trainee knights or formal knights resist the charge of the knights whose lowest strength was the Earth Knights?

The people of the Golden Duchy were like a man in a deserted place. Their bodies were covered with fighting spirit and the speed of their horses’ charge made it so that if they directly touched the soldiers, those soldiers would be shattered into pulp by the powerful impact.

It can be said that the Earth Knights, whose bodies and horses were covered with fighting spirit, were like tanks. If they were touched, they would die. Moreover, they also had long-range means. A large number of soldiers would die with one fighting skill.

At this time, Veronica was riding Vivian in the air, and beside her were Phoenix Mori Green, Liam Gray Iron and Edwin Bronze Fury.

Veronica's eyes had never moved away from the people of the Golden Duchy. Seeing this, Edwin laughed and said:

"Veronica, you are still the same as before, always pitying those nobles. You should know that the reason why they can live so comfortably is all due to your existence."

Veronica frowned when she heard this. Since Edwin retreated from the northwest and returned to the Jade Valley, she felt that Edwin seemed to have changed. He was no longer arrogant, but had the temperament of a conspirator.

Judging from what he just said, it was not in line with his previous personality.

With this tone and this attitude of looking down on the nobles, Veronica felt that Edwin at this time was more like her own brother standing in front of her and talking to her.
