On a land of more than one million square kilometers, with Anmosidu as the core, the Gripen Empire and the Demon Moon Empire have deployed their military forces dotted all over the place. The first tentative contact between the forces of both sides was at 3:30 p.m.
The score started, located in the town of Velea, 25 kilometers west and south of Anmosiddu.
Vereya has Lake Sule in the north and the Sulebro Swamp in the south. It has dangerous terrain on both sides, with the Western Capital at its back. It is the key to the east and west. Preventive fortifications have been carried out here since ancient times, and in recent years more and more have been added.
So. Anmosiddu's headquarters sent an elite joint force and two infantry regiments to guard the place. The leading officers were Sir Navarre, known as the brave general of the Demon Moon, and the young generals Puna brothers. Attack
The person is Lund, nicknamed the Desert Black Eagle, one of the Thirteen Eagles who is the king's confidant of the Gripen Empire.
Lund arrived with a mixed cavalry regiment of 3,000 black-feathered lions, and was immediately attacked fiercely from above and below the city of Wailea. He ordered his troops to keep their distance, and he picked up the heavy man named "Silver" who was carried on his back.
He rushed into the enemy's magic artillery fire with his silver crossbow and said, "Let me see who your commander is, and I'll give you a surprise." He was riding on a war horse that was calm in the face of danger, and the crossbow arrow was aimed at it.
The enemy on the city wall a few kilometers away gently blew the golden curling sea in front of his left eye, and the arrow was shot. At the same time, he was also lifted up by the air wave of the magic rock cannon, and he immediately retreated.
The elder brother of the Puna brothers was distracted by artillery fire and flashing lights. Suddenly, a sharp beam flew towards him and hit him in the left chest. He screamed in pain and pinned him to the thick flagpole behind him.
Lund, who had withdrawn from the range of artillery fire, used his binoculars to see the results of his victory. He proudly blew the flowing sea and ordered: "Call artillery fire to attack the city!"
"Brother!" The younger brother of the Puna brothers on the top of the city hurriedly ran over, cut off half of the exposed arrow tail with the rune knife in his hand, and rescued his brother.
Sir Navarre also came over and saw the broken silver arrow on the flagpole: "The enemy's crossbow is very powerful from such a distance!" He saw the archer but had no time to issue a warning.
In front of the Black Feather Lion's troops, Demon Rock Cannons and Demon Rock Thousand Crack Cannons were pushed up to the front line and blasted at the city pass.
Velea was originally the guard city of Anmosiddu, and the artillery fire on the city was equally fierce. The scouts in the air paid close attention to the battle situation from a distance, and quickly passed the situation to the commanders of both sides. However, the fighting here was fierce, and the Gripen
The army made no other moves for the time being, which made the defenders of Anmosiddu not dare to act rashly.
An hour passed, and the commanders of Anmosiddu had some confusion. Large-scale troop concentration was obviously laborious, and the longer it was delayed, the more disadvantageous it was to the attackers.
Pan Xing, commander of the Ninth Army, scratched his head as he looked at the movements on the sand table: "The only place where the war starts now is at Vereya. From the northern line of the Western Capital to the southern line, the enemy has mobilized troops, but we have implemented a strong wall and cleared the country.
A small number of soldiers were placed on various roads and passes to monitor their movements. It stands to reason that the Gripen army would have launched an offensive that would advance from north to south and be surrounded on three sides. Then they would use mysterious methods to make our army lose their magic ability, and at the same time drive
The ultimate weapon, hasn't this method been used once? What is their commander thinking?" He looked at the wise general in hospital robes, Dean Page.
Chief of Staff Gushnan said: "Based on my understanding of the Gripen Army, they have always been good at fighting regular battles and legionary battles. The current posture is indeed like this. Is it because they have not attacked for a long time? Are they afraid of something or waiting for something?
"
"It is possible that the enemy's mobilized troops have not reached the preset position."
Dean said: "I think their 'mysterious power' may not be able to be used continuously, or even if it is used, it will not cause all the people in Anmosid to lose their magical abilities."
Gushnan said: "It is indeed possible. Not all the soldiers who retreated from Black Cloud Iron Fortress have lost their magic power, and some people who were not far from Black Cloud Iron Fortress were found in the city.
Most of them were not affected."
"So, it can be guessed that the scope of the 'mysterious power' is limited." Per Xing said.
Dean said: "Anmosiduno is so huge that it is difficult to have any power that can completely destroy the entire city at once."
Gu Hu
Hanard frowned: "There is another possibility. The two countries have been hostile for a long time. There must be griffin agents in the imperial capital to inquire about the news. They may know that Yahan is coming with the 'Bell of the Empire', and soon he will
will come, so they are delaying. There are even their informants in the Western Capital City. Maybe they are afraid, maybe they are waiting for Yahan to arrive, and use that mysterious power to make Yahan lose the ability to use the 'Bell of the Empire'.
"
Everyone felt that this was the most likely possibility and fell into silence.
The King of the North, Daqi, crossed his arms and said, "We can't wait here for things to happen, we need to do something. Being beaten passively is not my style!"
Hanard looked away from the sand table: "King of the North, you have also lost your magic power, and you still have the ability to fight?"
"I still have my subordinates and the Frost Knights."
In the Western Capital City, in the forest on a low mountain, in the empty Starlight Pavilion, the space ripples vibrated and reverberated, rippling with the brilliance of magic. Bartholomew Bassowenya Khan walked out of the magic circle transmitted between the cities.
Then 150 red-robed archmages appeared one after another and walked towards the municipal center escorted by surrounding soldiers.
On the top of the Sisters' Landscape Tower, which is not far from the intercity teleportation array, a nun in black robes and white clothes stared at the direction of the teleportation array with a telescope. It was not until Yahan and the red-robed mages appeared and left that she
He put away the telescope, pretended to clean it with a broom, and then went to the bronze bell in the clock tower and rang a strange number.
In the red brick building facing the street a block away from the Sisters, the messenger who had been sitting by the window with the window open heard the bell. He took out the narcissistic stone placed under the table and wrote on it, "The bell has sounded."
to'.
In front of the city of Wailea, after more than an hour of bombardment, the Gripen Empire successfully suppressed Wailea's counterattack with the excellent range of the Magic Rock Thousand-Split Cannon. Lund and his mixed cavalry prepared to launch a formal attack.
Although the cavalry is not good at siege warfare, the air cavalry is different. There are 500 black feathered griffins in his Black Feathered Lion Cavalry Regiment. The 500 cavalrymen lead 500 medium and high-ranking mages closer to Velea.
position, as soon as the artillery fire stopped, the cavalry immediately flew over the city. The yellow-robed and green-robed mages took advantage of the air to attack the enemy soldiers scattered up and down in the city. Groups of people in the city were swept up by the tornado, or were struck by lightning.
Roll call. Although there are differences among the soldiers of Moyue, their fighting qualities are still very high. In such a passive situation, they are still organized in an orderly manner to form a detachment-style defense lineup.
"Sir Navarre." The adjutant found Navarre, who was gathering troops under the city defense, preparing to fully face the enemy, and said: "We have asked for help from the Western Capital, but it seems that the Western Capital is not prepared to send troops to support us."
"Then are there any instructions on whether we should leave or stay with them?"
The adjutant said: "Let us make our own decisions in the staff room. Damn it, how can Xidu ignore us?"
"The headquarters is worried that this is a trap, luring them out of the city." Navarre thought for a moment and said, "Find the Puna brothers and ask them to integrate their personnel and evacuate. I will lead this cavalry group to break up the rear."
The cavalry and horses of Mo Yue are well-trained. Navarre jumped on the horse and went out, followed by the other hundred cavalry. While riding and running, they shot arrows in the air to counterattack. Their archery skills were still quite accurate during the two-way movement.
Lund, the desert black eagle who jumped to the top of the city, ordered his men to open the city gate, and 2,500 of his cavalry filed into the city, destroyed the remaining fortifications, and rushed towards the center of the city. These cavalry had red tassels on their crowns, silver and black armor, and long cavalry charge spears tied to their hands.
, holding a drop-shaped standard red gryphon shield on his arm, wearing a saber on his waist, and wearing protective gear on his horse, he charged all the way along the streets, invincible!
