   Chapter 1336 1323. The Battle of Loon Lake

When the lords of the Bailin plane returned to Wilkes City, the spring of the Bailin plane had already quietly arrived. The warm wind from the southwest melted the ice and snow, and clusters of fresh green appeared on the vast grassland. The greener it is, the fresh green will disappear silently after entering...

  The upstream camp continued to build a large dam. Although the melted snow and ice converged into a river, causing the water volume in the river to suddenly increase, this had no effect on the craftsmen who built the dam.

  The three main rivers on the Three Rivers Plain, the Eisen River, the Buruin River, and the Anduin River, have successively stopped flowing.

  The main force of the Suldak lord's army brought a large amount of ordnance and officially entered the southern part of the Sanhe Plain by the shore of Luen Lake, which is next to Qiandao Lake.

Loon Lake is not connected to Qiandao Lake. Although they are only separated by a piece of wetland, they are completely independent water systems. Only when the rain is heavy enough to submerge the entire wetland, can Luen Lake and Qiandao Lake be separated? will join together.

  Spring is also the dry season on the Bailin plane. Since the three rivers have dried up, the Loon Lake is gradually exposing a large area of ​​tidal flats by the southwest wind.

  The mud at the bottom of the lake began to crack in large pieces under the sun, and Lake Loon was shrinking every day.

  As a result, the activity area of ​​the red-ridged giant tortoises hidden at the bottom of the lake is also rapidly decreasing, and their hill-like bodies are like isolated islands in the lake.

  For so many years, the red-ridged giant tortoise has occupied Loon Lake and the surrounding rivers, and they are regarded as the masters of the rivers and lakes here.

However, as the lord's army gradually occupied the surrounding rivers, all the red-ridged giant tortoises in the nearby watershed were driven into this Loon Lake. Then Suldak used a large number of migrant workers to divert the three rivers, completely cutting off the Aisen River, The connection between the Bruin, Anduin and Loon Lakes.

   Not only a large number of migrant workers from the surrounding towns participated in the excavation of the new river channel, but even ghost-striped worker ants who had just become slaves flooded into the new river channel in large numbers.

  The diverted river water will flow into Qiandao Lake along the wetland.

   As long as the water source of Loon Lake is cut off, the lake will dry up quickly.

The infantry soldiers of Lord Suldak's army would march towards the central area of ​​Lake Loon every day. Dozens of giant red-ridged tortoises were almost trapped in the center of Lake Loon. After the lake dried up, these giant tortoises like small islands became round Arched tortoise shells are protruding from the lake.

Although there are a large number of troops around the lake, these Red Ridge Giant Turtles trapped in the center of the lake also found that if they don't break out as soon as possible, once the lake dries up, it will become a dead place, and even if they leave at that time, I'm afraid Can't do it either.

On an evening in mid-March, nearly fifty redback giant tortoises were like small moving islands in the lake. The backs of the turtles were covered with mud and some water plants were hanging on them. They crawled out from the center of the lake step by step. There are deep ravines drawn out of the silt by the lake, and these red-ridged giant tortoises are like small two-story western-style buildings that can be moved, with thick tortoise shells on their backs.

   Just as these red-ridged giant tortoises rushed into the mud by the lake, the lord army guarding the lake shore pushed the prepared bed crossbow from behind to the high hill by the lake.

  As the first giant red-ridged tortoise entered the range of the bed crossbow, the commander of the Collins family's lord army ordered to shoot, and twelve temporarily mobilized ballistas hummed.

  The bed crossbow operators turned the turntable quickly, and the crossbow strings of the shore ballista stretched rapidly, and the crossbow strings creaked and cracked as they continued to charge.

   Following the command of the commanders, giant crossbow arrows shot through the air towards the Redridge giant tortoise.

   The red-ridged giant tortoise walking in front felt that the crisis was approaching, and quickly retracted its head into the turtle shell, and then water element shields appeared outside the turtle shell, like glass bowls turned upside down.

  The giant crossbow arrows hit those water element shields, and the glass-colored halo immediately dispersed, offsetting the momentum of the giant crossbow.

  Three giant crossbow arrows hit the frontmost Red Ridge Giant Turtle in a row, and only then did they penetrate the water element shield outside the turtle shell.

Then the giant crossbow arrows hit the exposed thick tortoise shell again, and the red-spine giant tortoises made a dull sound, and then stretched out their scale-covered heads. With a burst of power, countless water elements gathered around its body, and a huge water bomb condensed and formed in front of the red-spine giant tortoise.

   Waiting for more than thirty water bombs to condense one after another, each one is very large.

These **** of light slammed into the cavalry camp of the lord army with a violent whistling sound. A group of warriors wearing thick tower shields rushed in front of the cavalry and formed a shield wall with the shields in their hands. Unfortunately, as the giant water polo roared, these lords The shield fighters in the army didn't have time to respond with all their strength, and were hit by water bombs spit out by a group of giant turtles.

  The scene immediately became chaotic, and the shield warrior in front was blown away by the huge water polo.

   As soon as the lord army fought against the redback giant tortoise, it was smashed by these concentrated water bombs.

   Right at this moment, a roaring giant crossbow pierced through the head of the giant tortoise rushing to the front, and the redback giant tortoise didn't even have time to make a scream before the blood on its body gushed out crazily.

  But other redback giant tortoises walked closer to the lake...

  The water polo they spewed from their mouths caused huge casualties to the soldiers of the Lord Army. Although they had the full support of Samira's armed Thunder Rhinoceros, the soldiers in the front row were still inevitably killed by the water polo.

   Then Samiratu took out another giant magic crossbow, and the sound of the winch turning came from all around again.

As the lords gathered again to form a shield wall, since the giant red-ridged tortoise roared into the sky again, magic patterns were formed under the feet of the giant red-ridged tortoises, and the magic patterns on the back of the turtle behind them also lit up. When these giant red-spine tortoises opened their mouths, bunches of water cannons sprayed out.

  These cylindrical blisters smashed the lord army's camp to pieces. Following Commander Collins' order, the other lord army who could continue to fight took up their weapons and rushed towards the redback giant tortoise.

  The battle broke out, and the lord army relied on its excellent magic bed crossbow and three second-rank powerhouses to suppress these redback giant tortoises.

During the battle, the heavy armored infantry continued to fall, and the redback giant tortoise was killed by the joint efforts of Samira and Carrie Decker. The battle lasted from dusk to noon the next day. The fifty who broke out from the lake Almost all the remaining red-ridged giant tortoises were left by the lakeside by the lord army, but the lord army also paid a considerable price for this, and the number of casualties directly exceeded a thousand.

  The battle ended, and more than fifty red-ridged giant tortoises were all killed. The farthest red-ridged giant tortoise climbed out of Loon Lake, which was nearly a kilometer away from the shore of the lake.

  The lord army began to clean up the battlefield and organize the spoils on the battlefield...
