The enemy's spellcaster made a move, but Siegmund couldn't recognize whether the opponent's identity was a druid, a wizard, a shaman, or something else, what kind of magic was used, and what kind of magic it was.

It's not surprising that he doesn't recognize it, although Siegmund grew up in a place like Barusenger, and his sister is still a powerful druid, but his understanding of magic is still very rudimentary.

You must know that each caster's profession has its own set of spell casting system, and the druid system alone involves countless magic, not to mention others.

At least until now, even those gods who can watch fate and predict the future, they dare not say that they can use all the magic, can say the name of all the magic, after all, in this crystal wall system that does not know how many planes exist, every moment there is new magic being invented and created, and every moment there is magic being annihilated in the corner of history and forgotten.

However, although he could not recognize what kind of magic the Attila people used, what kind of methods they used, or how many people used this magic, Zigmund still had his own judgment in his heart.

"Prepare your druid forces and prepare to perform [Legendary Countermeasures]. ”

Siegmund commanded the herald not far behind him, who was at the very front of the wall and the most cared for by the enemy.

Behind him, in addition to the guards, there was a small team of dozens of people, including more than twenty heralds alone, and there were other people who had other jobs.

No way, now Siegmund is not just a legendary warrior, he is also the general who rules all the Scandinavians here and is responsible for fighting against the invasion of Attila.

The burden on his shoulders was very heavy, and he was no longer the same prince Barusenge as before, and it was impossible to leave everything in his hands and only be responsible for being a charging warrior.

Originally, according to his idea, because today was the first day of the official start of the war, there was a high chance that the Attila army would not send spellcasters to join the battle, because it would consume a lot of magic materials in their hands.

But he didn't expect that the Atila army, which was short of materials in their hands, used siege equipment at the beginning, let the centaurs use javelins and bows and arrows regardless of consumption, and let the spellcasters shoot.

Just the hand of the ballista attack that the caster took out just now, the magic materials consumed were enough for a family of three to go without food or drink for several months.

The gnolls who were pushing the pulley ladder cheered excitedly when they saw that the oncoming attack was so easily dealt with by their own army, and pushed what they were in hand with greater force.

The high cost of things made these gnolls begin to lose their minds, even if Hogg kept admonishing them before, but in such an environment where the air was filled with a strong smell of blood, it was still too difficult for the gnolls to keep calm.

However, the last sanity allowed them to get around as much as possible the fist-sized pits, which were hard to find in the snow, which were originally designed to deal with centaurs, but now caused great trouble for the gnolls.

If the pulley under the wooden ladder accidentally fell into the hole, it would take a lot of effort for the gnolls to get out, and in this time of battle, every minute and every second is linked to life, and the more time they waste, the more time the Scandinavians on the city wall can get those ballistas.

The body and equipment of the jackal man have no way to resist such an attack, and it is also a very unreliable thing to pin all the possibilities on the caster of their own family, no, it should be said that no matter who they are, it is very unreliable to put their lives on others.

And now they are only under attack from a few ballistas, thanks to the centaurs and their companions using remote suppression at any cost, otherwise the ballistas on the walls of the city wall alone are no less than double digits.

At some distance from the walls, the group of gnolls began to separate, and all but those who were still pushing the wooden ladder dispersed to find the traps hidden beneath the snow.

Of course, the loose formation that was scattered also made their losses much less, originally one ballista could kill dozens of gnolls, but now it can only hit a few, a dozen.

Yes, the ballistas are still firing, the gnolls are still dying, the casters of the Attila army are only dealing with the stone projectiles that are about to hit the wooden ladder, and the others that are smashing at the gnolls are not within their range.

It may be that this is the order of the knights above, or it is possible that these spellcasters think that the magic materials in their hands are more important than the orders of the gnolls.

Hogg also knew this, but he couldn't go to the knights in a hurry, to find the trouble of those spellcasters, whether he could talk about them, whether he was reasonable or not was one thing, before he agreed to the conditions of the famine, in this battle let the gnolls use all their strength, in order to get this land called Upland, change the loose structure of the past, and make this place the home of all the gnolls in the north, this little sacrifice is also necessary.

It seems that it is still a good deal to exchange the lives of these gnolls for the enemy's stone ammunition, but now the number of gnolls has exceeded the value of 100,000, and the gnolls in the north are still gathering here, even if the lives of ten gnolls are exchanged for an attack by the other party, it must not take too long for the stones that the other party can use as ammunition to be exhausted.

For the rest, it was impossible for them to remove the stones from the walls and use them as ammunition for their ballistas, after all, if they lost the walls and turned into a battle on the plains, Attila's army would have the upper hand.

The gnolls had come to the place where the first moat outside the city of Uppland was strong, and the city of Upland, which originally had only one moat, was rebuilt and repaired, and in order to deal with the attack of Atira, two more moats were created on the periphery.

A total of three moats run around the city of Upplan, and the water flowing into the sea keeps them clean and makes it difficult to silt up the corpses.

However, in winter, the cold wind blows the moats, and the moats are frozen with a thick layer of ice, and the smooth mirror-like ice surface shines in the sunlight with a silvery white light.

A gnoll with a shield in front of him, he carefully stepped on the ice, tried it hard, and after making sure that the ice was strong enough to bear the weight of the ladders, he nodded back.

They had to do this, and without these wooden ladders, it would not be easy to storm the walls of Upland, and it would take the corpses of their compatriots to pave a path.

"Go on, don't stop, aim a little. ”

Siegmund gave the order to continue the attack, although the attack of the ballista now had no chance of the enemy even a wooden ladder, but the gains were enough for the Scandinavians to continue.

The constantly adjusting angles, the faster and more skilled fighters in their hands, and the attacks with higher and higher hit rates all tell the effect of these attacks.

This forces the enemy's caster to cast their magic non-stop, draining their magic materials, energy, stamina, and mana, and when the caster needs to rest, their own caster is free to launch a wave of counterattacks.

As for the wooden ladders that are getting closer, they are indeed a threat now, and if they are allowed to get close to the walls, it will become difficult to destroy them, because the ballistas cannot attack targets close to the walls due to the angle.

Especially if those gnolls are allowed to rush up the city wall using wooden ladders, then the sudden outbreak of white-knuckle combat will make the war enter the most intense stage at once.

If Siegmund is the commander on the opposite side, he will definitely not let go of such an opportunity, and he will definitely throw out all the hole cards in one go, crush them with tonnage, quickly expand his advantage, and finally achieve the goal of defeating the enemy.

The problem was serious, but Siegmund was not too worried, the closer the wooden ladders were, the more the ballista hit rate increased, and even if the ballista could not destroy the wooden ladders in the end, the legends among them would come to the rescue.

The left and right were nothing more than something carved with magic, and no matter how strong it was, there was a limit, and as long as Siegmund was willing to use his longsword, it was easy to break the limit of the wood.

However, according to the current situation, he didn't need to use the legendary power in his hand, which was not too strong, and he didn't need to use the long sword that he had always kept as a hole card and had never shown in front of the second person.

If he really doesn't want to use his hole cards in front of others, especially if the people around him are members of the Scandinavian Empire, if he uses this hole card in this battle, then it means that Siegel must know these things as well.

Although Siegmund felt that the other party would not let him survive the war, he also had a premonition that he would most likely die in the battle with the enemy, and the best thing was to die with the same knight like Beowulf.

However, if he could, even if there was even a slight glimmer of hope, Siegmund still wanted to keep the hole card and wait until the day when he would never be able to wait until the day when he plunged the sword into Siegel's heart.

"With greasy surgery. ”

Seeing the brilliance of magic flash in front of the wooden ladder, taking advantage of the enemy's caster's inability to cast a second spell in a very short time, Siegmund decisively gave the order to his caster to use magic.

Under the effect of magic, the yellow liquid spread rapidly on the ice, and soon covered the place where the enemy stood, and the already smooth ice surface now became even smoother, and the jackals could now only land on all fours, maintaining their center of gravity and struggling to maintain their balance.

However, maintaining their balance and not falling is already their limit, and it is impossible to continue to push the wooden ladder forward.

The oil on the ice is extremely difficult to clean, and if you ignite it, the high temperature caused by it will melt the ice, and if you are not careful, the ice will break, and these wooden ladders will sink into the water.

After the flames were extinguished, the cold climate caused the river to continue to freeze, and together with the wooden ladders, it was even more difficult to get them out.

"Don't stop, keep going, keep going. ”

The squad leader of the gnoll people commanded like this, as warriors who were much stronger than ordinary gnolls, they had not weak willpower, and suppressed the madness in their bodies.

This is another method taken by Hogg to deal with the inferiority of the gnolls, so that the powerful gnolls as the leader of the squad, as the leader of the squad, control the gnolls under the command, so that even if those gnolls have fallen into chaos and lost their minds, they need to be controlled as much as possible.

The gnolls on all fours could not spare their hands, they stared at the wooden ladders with their heads, falling and getting up, slowly, but indeed moving the heavy wooden ladders.

"Siegmund sir, do you need to light it?"

The one who was following Siegmund and was the leader of the spellcasters in the city stepped forward, pointed to the gnolls who were working in the distance, and cautiously suggested.

"Don't be in a hurry, wait a little longer, wait for the opportunity. ”

Siegmund's chance is that his ballista will attack the wooden ladders again, forcing the enemy's spellcaster to use magic to break the siege, and of course it would be better if the enemy gave up protecting the wooden ladders.

However, strange things happened, more and more ballistae on the city wall joined the shooting team, but the hit rate was getting lower and lower, and in the last round of shooting, none of the stone bullets could successfully get a hit.

"The reason, I need to know the reason, if you reacted negatively, or if the other person used some magic that we don't know about. ”

Siegmund turned his head and said coldly.

Since the abnormality has been discovered, then it is necessary to find the problem, analyze it, and finally complete the solution, Siegmund also knows that the problem is likely to be that the other party has cast some magic that he does not know, but it is also essential to put a certain amount of pressure on his troops.

In such a battle, the more you are about to achieve victory, the more you must be cautious, because the closer you are to victory, the closer you are to defeat, which has been illustrated by many examples.

"Yes...... I'll figure it out!"

The leader of the spellcaster wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and replied with his head bowed.
