Chapter 372: Magic Mortar
Wei Xueman commanded his subordinates to charge Bresson's camp, whether it was encircling Wei to save Zhao or cutting off his back road, no matter what the means were, as long as it could relieve the pressure on the defenders, everyone was willing to try.
The pressure on the defenders of Lingxiao City was too great for the Brisson people, and on the evening of the ninth day of the siege battle, a third legion with strong combat effectiveness appeared outside Lingxiao City, although it was the bottom of the thirty-six legions, but it completely broke the fragile balance of attack and receiving.
As a corps that has always been underestimated, Wei Xueman knows that this crisis is an excellent opportunity for them, as long as they can show the combat effectiveness of the team, the first-line regiment will have its own number in the future. Bresson's camp was already well built, only because the Zephyr didn't have too many mages of their own, so they didn't have a defensive circle. This is actually not a mistake, after all, no one among the Chosen has advanced to become a legend, and naturally no one can use the magic to destroy the walled city.
Looking at the camp wall without the protection of the magic array, Wei Xueman had a smile on her face, she really didn't have a high-level magician, and she wouldn't fuse the magic array, but she had a secret weapon in her hand, and the attack of this secret weapon was magical, and the attack power was extremely high.
The Divine Elect of the forward pressure tried to maintain the formation as much as possible, in the eyes of the aborigines, this formation was okay for field battles, and it was almost like sending the city to death if it was really used to attack the city.
The aborigines' eyesight is still very good, the formation sent by Wei Xueman is not for storming the city, when the warriors in front of them reached the maximum range of the arrows, they stood firm, put on a defensive posture, and steadily built a defensive line. Looking out from the camp wall, a large group of mages behind the warriors were busy, they drew circles on the ground, placed the prepared materials in place one by one, and finally activated all these circles.
If there is a knowledgeable magician, he must be very surprised to see this scene, these magic arrays on the ground are all enhancement magic circles, and their main purpose is to enhance the attack power of magic. At such a distance, no matter what kind of magic is released, it will not be able to hit the enemies on the camp wall, and even if the magic attack power is enhanced, it is useless.
Just when the Brisson people were confused, a large group of Chosen Ones in different clothes ran out of the portal and busied themselves on the magic array, a strange magic cannon shaped like a mortar, but a few points larger in caliber was assembled, these magic robes were much smaller than the magic cannons defending the city, not only did not look intimidating, but made people feel very cute.
Seeing that the Bresson people didn't react, the smile on Wei Xueman's face gradually expanded. Until the magic cannons are all assembled. When the right person made a ready gesture to her, the expression on her face had changed from smiling, chuckling, laughing, to sneering. Since you look down on the infantry combat artifact that the whole regiment has worked so hard to develop, let you know how powerful it is.
At the sound of an order, twenty-two artillerymen put the round shells in their hands into the barrels, and this kind of thing that Wei Xueman named the magic mortar is a mortar born out of reality. It's not just what it looks like. The way of excitation, the trajectory of the shell is also very interesting. Some parts of the mortar are also integrated with it, and the disadvantages are obvious, in addition to the trouble of assembly, the shells are very expensive. After all, this is a reincarnation world, and things like magical creations are always high-end products, even the magic items that are used in life are not consumed by ordinary people, not to mention this kind of weapon used in war.
Twenty-two round shells exploded around the camp walls. As if twenty-two flame bombs exploded at the same time, the camp wall was suddenly surrounded by flames. And that's not all, almost only a minute has passed. The second batch of shells landed again inside the camp walls, this time about five yards into the camp, then the third, then the fourth......
The power of the magic mortar was completely beyond the Brissons' expectations, and the Brissons suffered a big loss in just one wave of attacks, most of the soldiers were on the battlefield attacking Soaring City, and only a group of soldiers in the camp who had returned to rest were affected except for the wounded. The loss of soldiers is still second, this wave of bombing, more than half of the supplies in the Bresson camp have been ignited, especially the loss of food is huge.
Wei Xueman had already used various reconnaissance methods to determine the storage place of the materials in the camp, and this shelling was aimed at those materials. If not on the battlefield, such shelling can only be artificially defeated. The total value of the materials and food lost by the Brissons was about 120,000 gold coins, and the value of the cannonballs fired was more than 150,000, not counting the consumption of the magic circle carved on the ground. It's just that there is no if on the battlefield, this is a real battlefield, and the side that was burned with food immediately became uneasy, and a large group of soldiers rushed out of the camp without caring about extinguishing the fire, and they didn't care about extinguishing the fire on their bodies and launched a charge against the phalanx set up by the gods.
The soldiers in front did not retreat, and the artillery behind fired wildly, they had already received Wei Xueman's death order, and they were not allowed to cease fire or take a step back until the shells ran out.
"Aunt Man, we will lose a lot if we fight like this." Weak Water Three Thousand pulled Wei Xueman's clothes, but she knew the strength of Bresson's regular army, the day before yesterday, their large army failed to catch up with the blue note to launch a rescue attack, but she still fought outside the city, the kind of one-to-three battle damage ratio made her tremble, although it was the second-tier regiment of the Temple of the Gods, the combat effectiveness was above the upper level of the Divine Selection. With the strong assistance of the blue note, she was beaten so badly by the aborigines Today, they are going to play positional warfare with Brisson, and she has no bottom in her heart.
"It doesn't matter, it's okay if they're all dead, as long as we set Bresson's camp on fire, our mission is complete, and without food, the morale of the Bresson people will drop, and at least we can delay for one more day. In this case, we can still block the Bresson people for a day, and after this defense battle, we will have the capital to apply for the first-line regiment, and if we fight the Bresson regular army today, we will be able to move to the front. Wei Xueman explained to his daughter that although she was called aunt, her real identity was the stepmother of the weak water three thousand.
"Isn't it enough to give a magic mortar as a greeting gift?" Weak water Sanqian is still a little distressed, after all, she is a comrade who fights side by side with her, so she feels very uncomfortable when she is all explained here, most of the people in the team are relatively old, and they usually take care of her in every way.
"The design flaws of the mortar are obvious, it can only be considered a semi-finished product, if there is value, it is the trigger device that we stumbled upon. The other design craftsman groups definitely can't look down on it, and they can't get their hands on this thing at all. "After all, Wei Xueman is experienced in the world, and he can see much more clearly than the weak water three thousand.
"Alright then, I'm going to help too." Weak water Sanqian bit his lip and rushed out, facing each other head-on, fighting to the death and not retreating, Shen Xuan'er was pressed and beaten as soon as he engaged, the gap in strength could not be made up with courage, if it weren't for the fact that most of the Bresson people who rushed out were warriors and lacked long-range support, it is estimated that Shen Xuan'er would not be able to persevere.
"Rush, it's all death anyway, it's enough to fight for one." Rushing to the front of the formation, Weak Water Sanqian shook her staff and roared, her voice more attractive than the magic she unleashed. Let her make such a fuss, everyone's suppressed feelings have been released a lot, and there is a slight smile on her stiff face.
"Xiao Ruoruo is still so proud. It's impossible to charge, and if you don't put on the defense mode, you will be directly knocked out in seconds. The person who spoke should have looked to be in his fifties, and his armor was obviously a warrior's profession, but he was standing behind the mage regiment.
"Uncle Jiang, you quickly find a way, we have to at least exchange one with them." Weak Water Sanqian was not very satisfied with the title of the old soldier, but the other party was an elder and the commander of the team, so she had to respect it.
"One for one? Haha, what is thinking in your little head, we can make a lot of money if we can exchange three for one, unless the ace team comes to help, otherwise, no one can exchange one with the regular army except for the most powerful teams. Jiang Bo patted Ruoshui's head dotingly, his attention was always on the front line, and with his efforts to adjust, the fragile position was never breached, and the battle loss ratio remained at about one to two.
Just as Ruoshui Sanqian was about to complain a few words to the ace team, the front end of the battle formation suddenly tilted to the left, and the two Bresson generals suddenly broke through the defense line and killed in.
These two guys are both above level ninety, and they are also high-level generals, and they are not much worse than legendary generals. Their sudden appearance cost the entire front, and in the face of such a high-ranking native, no one in the team could contend with it head-on.
"It doesn't look like we can do anything better." Jiang Bo sent the emergency team that followed him, and the appearance of two generals was beyond his expectations, if it was just a general, the emergency team could still withstand for a while, and the two generals would be greatly beyond the team's capacity.
In fifteen minutes, the entire defense line was gone, almost the entire position was in chaos, and this place had completely become a battlefield of melee.
Weak Water 3,000 cast spells in a row, the mana value had bottomed out, she took out two bottles of magic potions and poured them into her stomach, and her eyes were once again locked on the generals who were guided by the main team on the edge of the battlefield.
Calm down! Olympiad serial missiles!
Eat a cherished bottle of Continuous Healing Elixir, a bottle of a secondary potion that doubles the magic damage even money can't buy. The mana of the weak water of 3,000 rose wildly, and she didn't need to worry about running out of mana for thirty seconds, so she turned on the turret mode and vented all her anger on the general.
Surrounded by a group of people and beaten for a long time, the general's blood volume had dropped below half, he suddenly felt a sharp and continuous pain from behind, and he had to give up killing the two shield warriors in front of him who had lost their strength by him, and turned around angrily to find the person who had caused him pain.
Crazy charge! Slash with the wind!
The warlord locked on to the target very lightly, and the two skills were sent out one after another, and the huge horse chopping knife rushed to the door of Ruoshui with wind pressure.
Rumble! The dirt flew, and a huge crater appeared at the general's feet. There was nothing in front of him, could it be that the attack power was too high to beat the magician to powder? (To be continued......)
