Chapter 491: First Battle
The cold wind swept through the wilderness, the yellow weeds and bushes shivered in the wind, and all the soldiers of the Holy Cross who guarded the city walls felt a double chill, which made people involuntarily want to wrap their leather armor...... Even if that thing doesn't keep warm.
The rebels who came in seemed to be scattered, but in fact, every formation was clear and demarcated, and this time they were obviously prepared, and it also made people nervous in terms of momentum.
The rebels did not attack the city directly, but stopped at a distance from the city walls, and dozens of crashing vehicles were divided into several attack points, apparently the rebels also wanted to use their superiority in strength to launch in several parts at the same time, so that the Holy Cross could take care of the other.
Ferdigan's mouth was a little bitter, when did these rebels become so cunning, the aimless charge of the past has been replaced by the attack camp that has begun to take shape, and this shocking crash car, Ferdigan has a more and more powerless feeling in his heart to fall.
But this was not the time to despair, and the somewhat strange magician had become Ferdigan's only hope.
"Mr. Tuka, the rebels' assault is about to begin, can you tell me the reason for keeping their rammers together?"
Seeing the rebels who began to charge, the soldiers of the Holy Cross on the city walls were already waiting under the command of the officers, the stone-throwing carts had begun to tear off the tarpaulin to place the stones, and the crossbowmen had already inhaled and stretched their bows, waiting for the rebels to rush into the strike range to give them a head-on blow, but Ferdigan knew that he could not resist the crash trucks pushed by the rebels, a crash weapon specially designed to attack the city's defenses, made of magic metal and heavy metal. The hammer attack is extremely ferocious, and the hard rock often crumbles after a few consecutive blows.
The only way to restrain it is to destroy it completely, but now that the rebels are so carefully protected, the only way to do so is to rely on the magic of the magician.
"Well, it's very simple, the rebels are scattered and attacking like this, we have only a dead end, and the two apprentices and I can't take care of so many crashing cars, often three or five crashing cars can break down a city wall as long as they have enough time, so it's better to let them break through in one place than to be broken by each one. Attract more crash cars to expand your success. I will teach the rebels a profound lesson in this place. ”
The pale mage had an indescribable feminine taste even when he laughed, and there was always a chill in Ferdigand's eyes.
He didn't explicitly tell Ferdigan what he would do, but Ferdigan had to fully trust the other party at this point and came this far. There is only a desperate fight.
Heavy footsteps and heavy breathing sounded outside the city. And it's getting faster and faster. The rebels began to run, urged by the high-pitched sound of rhinoceros war drums.
Rushing ahead were the hoplites, their every step leaving a deep mark on the ground, and the soldiers, who were half a head taller than ordinary people, were selected from the troops. Wearing a sturdy cowhide armor, a horned helmet, a broadsword or a spear became the standard equipment of hoplites. The hoplites are running like a mobile fortress, and anyone has the fear of being crushed to dust as thousands of humanoid fortresses rush towards you.
Fluttering ......
A piece of flying arrows in the air into a net of heaven and earth, towards the rushing rebel soldiers, the rough round shield was tightly protected by the important parts of the body, but the dense rain of arrows still made a part of the brave hoplites fall off the line, the hoplites who were shot struggled on the ground in pain, some brave simply broke or pulled out the feather arrows, bulging red eyes and roaring to continue to rush forward, a big battle finally began.
The catapults also began to concentrate their forces on the direction of the rammer's attack, but the rattan nets placed in front of the rammed by the rebels served as a good protection.
After discovering that the catapult was unable to cause substantial damage to the rammed vehicle, Ferdigan decisively ordered the catapult to abandon the ramming vehicle and instead strike the heavy riders. Crowded around the area of the rock-throwing trucks, which immediately received a good effect.
Although the hoplites were extremely strong, several soldiers fell in screams every time a boulder of water basin fell, and there was little better defense than dodge this physical attack that could not be blocked by the body.
The rammed car finally reached the bottom of the city walls under Ferdigan's worried gaze, and the catapult wounded only one ram in this distance, leaving the enemy out of the fight, and the rebels' tight protection finally worked wonders.
With a loud 'squeak' and 'clacking' sound. The crash trucks that arrived first started as soon as the rattan nets were removed. The thick hammer arm was raised, and the hammer exploded like a lantern-sized hammer, and the hammer flashed......
The rock cracks, the second hammer follows up, the stone breaks, the third hammer hits, the stone crushes into powder!
At each attack point, several crash trucks were fired continuously and continuously, and a gap of ten meters wide soon appeared, although the boulders and boiling oil poured down on the city wall caused heavy losses to the semi-rebels below, the round shield could not withstand the condescending blow of the stone and wood at all, and the flames made the rebels roll under the painful foot of the wall, but the crash car was wrapped in thick leather all down, and its fire resistance was greatly improved, and this special scale skin could be well isolated from the fire, Even if the pouring oil burns, it is difficult to cause substantial damage to the crashing car.
Perhaps seeing that the gap was widening and the soldiers on the walls were not able to keep up, the rebel commander immediately waved a small flag and instructed more crash trucks to rush here, trying to expand the gains and break through the fortress in one fell swoop.
Ferdigan's eyes followed Tuka's figure closely, the three magicians and magic apprentices had already focused their attention here, according to the magicians' request, Ferdigan deliberately ordered the soldiers to slow down the progress of filling the damaged part of the wall, seeing that victory was in sight, the rebels became more and more excited and furious, and the rebel soldiers and crashing vehicles gathered here also increased, and they saw that they were about to spread to the city wall. The soldiers on the city wall already had a look of despair on their faces, and the officers were even more furious, angrily scolding the soldiers who repaired the city wall.
"Mr. Tuca, the situation is already very dangerous, do you have any hole cards!"
Ferdigan couldn't wait any longer, although he knew that the other party must be waiting for the best time, but wasn't this scene enough? Do you have to wait for the best time to break through the walls, by then it will be too late to cast another spell.
Tuka was unmoved, and there were more crashing cars concentrated here, and a small number of rebel soldiers climbing the walls did not matter. The important thing is to destroy the enemy ramming car. More than a dozen crashing cars under the city wall pounded the city wall frantically, and each hammer bombardment would make the city wall shudder, and the stone powder splashed and emitted gray mist. From time to time, the stone bricks of the city wall fell one by one. Although the soldiers of the Holy Cross Legion also fought back desperately with bows, crossbows, stones, and boiling oil. But in the face of the fierce rebel soldiers, their blocking actions could not stop the rebels from turning their advantage into victory little by little, if the Holy Cross Legion's side did not come up with effective counterattacks. Maybe in the blink of an eye, the city could be destroyed.
Without Ferdigan's reminder, Tuka had already raised his staff in the air, and as a stream of muffled incantations erupted from him, the gray staff suddenly formed an infinite cloud of mist and enveloped it.
As Tuka gently shook the staff, the clouds around the staff seemed to be suddenly shaken away, and suddenly fell into a whirlpool air flow, spun up rapidly and climbed into the air, the surrounding clouds seemed to be swallowed up by the whirlpool absorbing more and more clouds faster and faster, and suddenly formed a huge spiral air flow, which fell to the ground from mid-air, and suddenly the wind suddenly rose, and the sky and the earth changed color. Whether it was the rebel soldiers who were attacking frantically or the soldiers of the Holy Cross who were desperately resisting, they were all attracted by this sudden change of heaven, and even the pace of the battle suddenly slowed down a lot.
"Tornado!"
Tuka's face flushed with a strange flush, it was obvious that this huge magic was a bit beyond his ability, although he used two exciting magic scrolls in a row to help him try his best to control the magic power, and the two magicians around him were also doing their best to help support, but Tuka still had a feeling that he had drained his whole body of strength, but all this was no longer important, the important thing was that the storm tornado finally succeeded in casting the spell as he wished!
The gray-black tornado is like a wind dragon falling from the sky with teeth and claws, rolling with an incomparable momentum, Tuka is nervous at this time to control the direction of the tornado's attack, the whining scream almost tears people's eardrums, in the rain and fog, a huge incomparably inverted funnel-shaped vortex air flow is grounded, and suddenly dozens of panicked rebel soldiers on the ground are sucked in, and the storm tornado finally hit!
The commander of the rebel army, who had been standing in the distance, suddenly changed color, magic has always been a nightmare for the rebels, in terms of the number of mages, the mages of the rebels cannot be compared with the empire in terms of quantity and quality, or the flames are burning, or the sky is thundering, or the ice and frost, or the wind knife cuts their bodies, and today they once again feel the punishment that humans inflict on them with the help of the power of nature.
The storm tornado swept by, and all the objects within a radius of twenty meters from the center of the tornado were instantly sucked up from the ground and sucked into the air, hundreds of rebel soldiers didn't have time to react at all, along with more than a dozen crash cars and scattered stones and bricks and tiles, and the blue-gray tornado turned jet black because of absorbing a large number of objects, and the rotating air flow made a terrible strange roar, as if it was going to tear everything contained, and the strong air flow turned left and right, like the wind god coming, The power of the 100-meter run did not diminish in the slightest, and at Tuka's gritted teeth, the tornado swept along the city walls after sweeping away the rebel army at the breach.
Like a transforming monster that wants to devour heaven and earth, the object almost on top is sucked into the belly by this monster in one breath, and rises along the whirling whirlpool, and in the dark, the sun and the moon are lightless, and the sky and the earth change color.
Despite the warnings and howls of the rebel officers, the soldiers were reminded to disperse quickly, but how fast was the tornado? The rebels had just had time to retreat and flee backwards, when the tornado had already hit, and the half-rebel soldiers who could not escape with countless fragments of dirt, grass, blades, masonry and stone were immediately engulfed in, unable to break free, howling and struggling to fly into the air, that scene was enough to make people unforgettable.
Ferdigan rubbed his hands excitedly, no wonder magicians had such a high status in the Empire.
Although he has participated in many counterattacks against the rebels, he has never felt the importance of a mage this time, and it can really be said that he has single-handedly turned the tide, if the coverage of the storm tornado can be wider, if the duration can be longer, maybe take the opportunity to fight a beautiful counterattack, let the rebels feel the power of the Holy Cross.
But when he saw Tuka's white and sweaty appearance, Ferdigan knew that he was purely utopian.
The faces of the two magic apprentices were also pale and their bodies were shaky, and it was obvious that the three of them had exhausted the last mana in their bodies, and they had done their best to support them to this point.
I am confident that I will *********** hit the water for 3,000 miles in 200 years***********
