Chapter 438 St. Peter’s Castle

St. Peter's Castle is located on the border of the Bantu Empire. In front of it is a flat river, which can penetrate into the vast southern part of the continent; in the back, backed by the thousands of miles of Ural Mountains, guarding the Ural Grand Canyon from the Bantu Empire to the Dra Empire. For thousands of years

In order to explore the southern part of the mainland, the Holy See used St. Peter's Castle as a springboard and spent a lot of materials and manpower here.

The entire castle is built on the mountain. It is not so much a large castle as a giant checkpoint. The tall city walls rise from the ground and are all made of black Ural iron ore unique to the Ural Mountains. They are strong and wear-resistant and have experienced many years of use.

Not available for thousands of years

There is no wear and tear; the tall magic tower pierces the blue sky. As long as the energy of crystal stones and Warcraft crystal cores is sufficient, the attack range is as high as 1,500 steps. The entire castle is majestic and majestic, like a giant monster blocking the Ural Grand Canyon.

exit.

The castle has a large population, with more than five million permanent residents. If you include mobile business groups, mercenaries, adventurers, etc., the number is even more astonishing. The city has complete supporting facilities, including numerous pubs and hotels, and the huge St. Petersburg

There is a church and a military camp with many soldiers... The famous Ural Mercenary Group on the mainland has its headquarters here.

If Basil's Cathedral is the base of the Holy See in the south, then St. Peter's Castle is the springboard and material center of the Holy See in the south. Strategic materials such as weapons, armor, and food from the north of the Dela Empire are turned over here.

Then they were continuously sent to more than a hundred churches and countless strongholds of the Holy See in the south.

The missionary elder of the Holy See, Doreac, once proudly said that even if an unprecedented natural or man-made disaster occurs on the mainland, even if they cannot buy any food, the residents of St. Peter's Castle can survive five years relying on the reserves of supplies. The supply is millions.

A person has spent five long years. Even if Doreak is a bit exaggerated, you can imagine how huge the materials stored in the castle are!

In order to protect St. Peter's Castle, the Holy See has more than 80,000 permanent troops stationed here. Since the Warcraft Kingdom launched a surprise attack and quickly destroyed churches one after another, the remaining Holy See troops in the south have basically retreated here.

The total number of protective knights and magicians reached an astonishing 120,000; if we add in the Ural Mercenary Group and other large mercenary groups supported by the Holy See, the number of soldiers who can fight is as high as 15.

Ten thousand.

Tall city walls, powerful magic towers, abundant supplies, and an army of up to 150,000 people... All these combined make St. Peter's Castle as indestructible as an iron barrel. Whether it is the soldiers guarding the city or the fanatical

Believers, missionaries and guardian knights who fled from all over the south, all do not believe that the Warcraft Kingdom can capture this fortified city, and the Pope, Elder Weber and other senior members of the Holy See are no exception!

They believe that as long as they shrink their sphere of influence and concentrate all their efforts to defend St. Peter's Castle, they will not only be able to withstand the massive attacks of the Dark Association and the Warcraft Territory, and protect the Holy See's last fortress in the south, but they can even launch a fatal attack on the enemy at a critical moment.

Counterattack. Encouraged by Cardinal Carrier, the soldiers' morale was high, as if they had seen the dawn before darkness, and they were full of confidence in the majestic St. Peter's Castle.

For ten days, after sweeping across more than a hundred churches and hundreds of small strongholds of the Holy See in the southern part of the mainland, Yang Ling led his army to the Ural Mountains and arrived in front of the majestic St. Peter's Castle. As long as this castle was destroyed, the Holy See would be defeated.

The forces in the south will be completely defeated!

"Yang Ling, do you have any good ways to break the city?" Looking at the majestic St. Peter's Castle, Cruyff shook his head helplessly.

"You think, other than a strong attack, what else can you do?" Looking at the team brought by Elder Cruyff, Yang Ling shook his head and smiled bitterly, "If you bring 108,000 elite dark soldiers to capture St. Peter's Castle

There haven’t been any problems yet, but if we bring over 10,000 old, weak, sick and disabled people here, I’m afraid it won’t be enough for others to stuff their teeth!”

In order to move forward quickly, the Dark Elder led his army to raid the Holy See's base camp along the trail. Although many of the Holy See's strongholds were removed along the way, the unpalatable St. Peter's Castle was handed over to Yang Ling. Although Croy sent

The elder husband leads a team

There are only more than 10,000 troops to support, and what's more terrible is that they are either new recruits who have just been recruited, or they are old, weak, sick and disabled guys. It is enough to wave the flag and shout, but it is almost impossible to expect them to fight bloody battles and conquer the majestic St. Peter's Castle.

possible!

Unlike the Steel Angle Castle, St. Peter's Castle stores countless supplies. When the magic tower is running at full strength, it forms a magic shield with an amazing coverage area, which greatly blocks people's mental power. Yang Ling tried several times but was unable to escape through the earth escape and wind escape.

Waiting for Wushu to teleport in, other than a strong attack, he couldn't think of any good way to break the city for a while.

"this....."

Looking at the more than 10,000 soldiers behind him, Cruyff smiled awkwardly. He also wanted to break through St. Peter's Castle, destroy the springboard for the Holy See to enter the south, and completely eradicate their power in the south; however, in order to concentrate

The force raided the Holy See's base camp and dealt a heavy blow to the opponent. The Great Elder had already taken away almost all the elites that could be mobilized. In a hurry, more than 10,000 recruits and wounded soldiers were mobilized to support. This was already the limit of the Dark Association.

"Sir, St. Peter's Castle is heavily guarded and there are many soldiers. Attacking by force is definitely not a rational choice." Seeing Yang Ling frown slightly, General Asnamo stepped forward and expressed his opinion, "I think the best way is to send people to mix things up."

Go in, use the magic teleportation array to quickly transport troops, and break through from the inside of the castle; the middle strategy is to draw out the soldiers guarding the city and eliminate their main force through field battles; the next best strategy is to issue a war mobilization order and summon all soldiers who can go into battle to attack!"

"Okay, Ashnamo, you first test the strength of the castle. If you can't get in, try to lure them out to fight in the field!" For the time being, Yang Ling couldn't think of a good way to break the city, so he had to launch a tentative attack first.

It is naturally best to draw out the main force. Otherwise, if we forcefully attack the city, we may have to pay a heavy price even if we win.

Asnamo was both wise and brave, and quickly took the order, and soon led the soldiers to take action. First, he sent people to try their best to sneak into St. Peter's Castle, hoping to launch an attack from inside the castle. Unfortunately, he learned that Yang Ling led an army to kill

After receiving the news, Cardinal Carrier ordered the walls to be cleared and no one to enter or exit. Only those who are confirmed to be within the Holy See can be hoisted up from near the city gate through a hanging basket. Ordinary people cannot enter the city even if they spend a lot of money.

If the plan fails, I have to find another way!

Ashnamo successively sent a dragon-blood warrior riding a flying dragon and a soldier riding a horned eagle to approach St. Peter's Castle under the hazy moonlight, hoping to sneak in quietly and find a remote corner to build magic.

Teleportation array to quickly teleport troops into the castle. Unfortunately, the city

There is a magician on duty at regular intervals on the wall. The dragon-blood warrior and the horned eagle warrior could not hide it from the patrolling soldiers, but they could not hide it from the magician's detection magic. They were discovered from a long distance away. Following closely,

He was killed on the spot by the magic tower's terrifying lightning, fireball and other attacking magic.

Even if the dragon-blooded warrior rode a bipedal flying dragon around the city wall and swooped down like lightning from high altitude, his whereabouts were quickly discovered by the magician's detection magic. The entire sky of St. Peter's Castle has been covered with heavy detection magic, let alone the large monsters.

, not even the little flies can fly in!

In desperation, Asnamo had no choice but to send soldiers to attack, with the help of the army of Warcraft, to clear out the Holy See's eyes, ears and patrol troops outside the castle. Then he went to the castle every day to provoke, hoping to draw out the main force of the defenders. Unexpectedly,

Cardinal Karel is more cunning than an old fox.

Lao Niu remained calm and forbade the soldiers from going out to fight without permission, and led the army as motionless as a tortoise. No matter what actions the provocative soldiers made, they just did not go out to fight, even if they saw the fleeing missionaries and protective knights.

Even though they were brutally pursued by the soldiers of the Warcraft Territory, they remained unmoved.

Although the steel knife is sharp, it cannot be used against a thousand-year-old turtle!

After the best and middle strategies failed, Asnamo had no choice but to gather his soldiers and launch a tentative attack. Unfortunately, he failed again!

The more than 2,000 dark knights charging into the battle were shot into hedgehogs by the overwhelming rain of arrows before they even got close to the city wall; halfway through pushing the heavy cart, they encountered a rain of meteorites falling from the sky, smashing the soldiers and carts to pieces; they were invincible.

Before the magic crystal cannon and keel chariot showed their power, they were attacked by the magic tower's long-range attack.

The magic crystal cannons were destroyed one by one. Although the magic crystal cannon was astonishingly powerful, its maximum range was only more than a thousand steps, which was just shorter than the range of the magic tower and could not pose a fatal threat to the city wall. The same was true for the dragon bone chariot, which exceeded a thousand steps.

After five hundred steps, the power was greatly reduced and it was unable to pose a fatal threat to the city gate and defenders.

What should I do if I can't teleport in with my escape technique, can't sneak in with my disguise, and can't get close with a strong attack?

After trying his best and staying near St. Peter's Castle for three full days without finding a way to break the city, Asnamo was at a loss, Elder Cruyff was frowning, and Yang Ling couldn't find a good way to break the city. According to

News from the front line, the army led by the Dark Elder was also affected

With the main force of the Holy See entangled, the battle has entered a stalemate stage. What's even worse is that, according to reliable intelligence, reinforcements from the Holy See are coming from all over the mainland in a steady stream. If the battle is not resolved quickly, the stalemate will be detrimental to the Dark Association and the

The Warcraft Territory is getting more and more unfavorable!
