Although Søren had a huge force.
But within the city of Mordor, there were not many troops that could be mobilized.
Because even if the population of the entire island of Mordor was added together, it was only about four or five hundred thousand people. The proportion of the army in Mordor was about one-tenth. There were about 30,000 regular troops in the inner city, 5,000 defenders in the port area, and the rest were fleets. At most, they would occasionally rest on the island of Mordor, and then there were a large number of militia troops in many towns. This number was relatively large, estimated to reach the scale of sixty to seventy thousand. However, the combat power of the militia was too low. At most, a militia could deal with one or two skeletons. When facing the real Abyss army, they could basically ignore them. If they went to the battlefield, they would be killed.
In this way, Søren could actually gather very few troops in a short time.
The city defense army could come one after another about 20,000 people. There were about two or three thousand people from the church, witches, and professions. The core force was still the arcane tower and the golem army.
Søren could not give up the outer towns to defend Mordor because there were at least 100,000 people in the outer twelve towns. If he gave them up and let them be slaughtered by the undead army, not only would Søren's strength be greatly reduced, but his prestige and faith would also be shaken in an instant.
Therefore, in this case, Søren could only fight head-on.
And he had to fight!
When Orcas's undead army gathered and launched an attack, all the troops that Søren could mobilize in a short time were also concentrated in the plains.
There were about 36,000 troops in Mordor.
The number of Orcas's army was between 200,000 and 300,000.
Nearly ten times the number of troops gave great pressure, but the soldiers of Mordor did not retreat in the slightest, and even their morale was not shaken at all.
Because the true God was with them.
The top combat power of Mordor was gathered together. There was also an arcane tower in the sky. The domain of the magic lock had also been activated. The mighty golems formed a line of defense. These powerful golems were not at a disadvantage even in the face of demons. Especially the large-scale steel golems, their combat power was enough to defeat all the blood army.
"Woo woo woo!"
The dull sound of a bugle horn was heard.
Countless Dretches were driven forward. Orcas was still using the same tactic as the Abyss, which was to use a large number of cannon fodders to consume the enemy's strength.
Among the nearly three hundred thousand abyssal army, there were about fifty thousand low-level demons, followed by about a hundred thousand low-level undead. These were all cannon fodder that could be used at will. Even with numbers, they could still defeat a large number of enemies. More than once, the elite army of devils had been surrounded by ten times the number of low-grade demons and died of exhaustion.
"Shield Formation!"
The dull roar of the drow officer sounded, and then from the defense line of the city of Mordor, a team of warriors with full armor and giant metal shields walked out.
There were also many duergars among them. Despite their short stature, they were holding giant shields that were even larger and heavier than themselves. It was as if they didn't care at all. These duergars were specially trained shield warriors. They were equipped with full-body armor, enchanted shields, and one-handed war hammers. They were the strongest defensive force of the army, and they were responsible for resisting the frontline attacks.
Boom! Boom!
The muffled sound of cannon fire was heard.
The portal at the rear urgently mobilized a batch of cannons, and there was also long-range artillery support from the warships in the direction of the inland river.
However, these were not the key factors that determined the outcome of the battle. Under Gloria's command, the witches worked together to cast their spells. Dense fireballs fell from the sky and bloomed on the map within a radius of 100 meters. Every time they cast a spell, they would take away thousands of demon cannon fodder.
Nearly a hundred thousand cannon fodders gradually approached and quickly fell to the ground in the process.
In just five or six rounds of attacks, thirty to fifty thousand low-level demons and low-level undead had been destroyed. Orcas, who was in the rear, could not help but frown.
The organizational ability and probability of the army of Mordor were completely beyond his imagination. It made him feel like he was fighting against the army of devils. Because in the bloody battle, the elite devils also ignored such a huge number and efficiently eliminated batch after batch of demon cannon fodders.
The trial of Sauron's battle flag plane began to take effect.
The main target of the trial was the demons, and most of the officers in Mordor had entered it, so when they really faced the demon army, they did not panic at all.
If the officers did not panic, the soldiers below would not panic. All orders were carried out in an orderly manner, and the enemy was quickly reduced under the attack.
"Clay Golems, enter combat state!"
The clay golems, which occupied the largest proportion of the city of Mordor, began to step forward. Nearly six thousand clay golems and stone golems formed the first line of defense.
When the seventy or eighty thousand undead cannon fodders approached, the clay golems did not change at all. With 25 points of strength, they directly crushed the enemy. At the moment of contact, seven or eight thousand skeletons and Dretches were smashed without hesitation. The ability [Resist Attack] was originally for defensive counterattack, and the effect was amazing against cannon fodders.
And!
The most important point was that although the clay golems' combat power was close to the lowest among the golems, they had a very powerful ability.
They had about 10 points of damage immunity, and they were very effective against sharp weapons. They could gradually recover their damage during the battle. Mordor did not make large and giant clay golems, which made them unable to fight against high-grade beings, but it was enough to crush these cannon fodders with numbers.
Batches of demon cannon fodders fell down.
The Dretches were the first to be unable to bear it and began to collapse quickly. Even the demon generals could not stop them.
There were thirty to fifty thousand demon corpses at the front of the battle, but only one or two hundred clay golems were destroyed. The skeletons and zombies were basically of little use, especially when facing the golems, they were difficult to break through.
— — "Earthquake!"
The ground began to shake violently.
A small group of Necromancers quietly approached under the leadership of the Lich, and then launched a large-scale earthquake. Then many clay golems began to crack. This spell caused high damage to the clay golems. However, they only had so many opportunities. At the moment when they were close to the battlefield and finished casting, these people were completely exposed. The Dark Blade Assassins blessed by Søren quickly dealt with them.
The battlefield entered a war of attrition.
The army of Mordor was on standby in the rear. The clay golems began to fight with the cannon fodders in front of them. Almost every time a clay golem was destroyed, the undead would have to pay a hundred times the price.
The basic cost of a clay golem was more than 3,600 gold coins.
If it was sold on the market, the price would be about 15000 gold coins. (Requires casting a spell to activate)
Søren did not feel distressed at the moment. He watched the clay golems and the abyss cannon fodders in front of him without blinking. The main force basically stopped attacking. In this way, Søren used nearly 1,800 clay golems to fight against nearly 100,000 undead cannon fodders.
In his heart, he was already prepared to use Kindler to fight against the demons.
