Chapter 176: A New Era
When the fighting resumes in Anthun, there is no other place in the Northland that can remain peaceful and tranquil.
When the bad news came, the elves hurried back to their hometown, but the orcs sounded the horn of the final battle.
The scattered wolf cavalry regrouped, and the orcs needed a force to attack the Red Maple Line, the last bastion of humanity.
Red Maple City, an originally unknown northern town, has become the focus of the entire continent.
In the special communication channel between the churches, the news of Anthun, the capital of the kingdom of Sluwell, has changed the sky again, but the orcs are no longer able to turn their guns, and all their chips and war resources have been pressed on the Red Maple defense line.
Even if they don't have to master strategy, the orc chieftains still know that if they don't pull out this difficult nail and let humanity completely eliminate all hope of resistance, the repeated riots and overturning of the occupied lands will never stop.
The wandering wolf cavalry has been recalled, the mighty Behemoth warband has even lost one, the mixed group of mammoth war elephants that lashed the earth has lost more than half of the battle, the precious air knights continue to fall like dumplings, and the orcs have paid sacrifices and flesh and blood, completely turning the defense line into a meat grinder.
And the human side is not comfortable in this way, in the face of the powerful orc alliance, the life of the individual has become a worthless battle loss number, and the difference in size and strength makes each orc who climbs the wall need more than three times the human life to redeem it.
At this time, when all the defense lines are in full emergency, it is very eye-catching that there is still room to support the defenders of the West City Gate in other defense areas.
"Knight Princess" Renee. This is a ridiculous nickname that was originally used as a model of false propaganda. But as the war progressed. It has been recognized more and more.
But at this time, this female general, who has recently become famous, is a little troubled, why? That's the Orlan who pestered themselves and made a fuss.
"Your Highness, why are the equipment of these warriors so familiar, so similar to our White Wolf Guards, no, it should be said that they are exactly the same! That's a special alloy in my country. β
In a sense, Dassos sent his henchman Hemet to the Northlands. It has already shown that he attaches great importance to it, but now, this old acquaintance is really a little difficult.
"Oh, that's what we changed when we exchanged technology, based on the template of your guard, and it was newly tailored for our warriors. As for the material, it's actually completely different, it's just painted with a considerable paint color, you can look closely, in fact, the detail gap is still very large. β
"So quickly to go from technical data to finished product? Wrong! But there's a white wolf insignia on those armors! β
"What. That's you read it wrong, it's the Winter Wolf emblem of our new aspect. It's not the same thing. You see that the white wolf has three extra hairs on its head, well, this is our winter wolf emblem, you can also call him the three-hair emblem, Brother Roland has always called it that. β
"Is the original pattern filled with three hairs a new pattern? Can you be a little disciplined, even if there is no intellectual copyright in this world, there is no way to sue you for infringement, but at least you want to have your own face. If you plagiarize a pirated version, add at least three beards to the left and right of the wolf's head! β
Hermit opened his mouth, but the question remained unanswered.
After a long time, another new problem will come.
"The heavenly one? Could it be our floating battleship? β
The most eye-catching new star in the war is the Floating War Aurora Aurora, which perfectly makes up for the weakness of the few defenders of the West City.
Heavy artillery fire support, transporting the wounded, and the final word at the critical moment, the dead Beamon was first wounded and then besieged, just by virtue of this record, it is already destined to become famous in the world.
"No, no, that's the ancient floating battleship we borrowed from our ally, the Wingman, you see, it's already a creature-like existence, and it's completely different from your purely mechanical architecture."
"How do you know we're purely mechanical?"
Hemmit's mouth moved, but the rhetorical question was never uttered again.
There are some things that I know in my heart from the time I see them, and I believe them when I hear your nonsense, but since there is no evidence for such things, and there is no intention to damage the relations between the two countries, what is the use of talking about it.
Renee secretly wiped a cold sweat, that is, she knew that the other party would not turn her face, but this was the act of using the thief in front of the original owner, and probably only Roland did it so handily and justifiably.
"We in the Oran Empire are very interested in this research and look forward to an exchange. Of course, we can pay an additional price. β
This recovery of Kagasi is not a matter of time and a half, the battleship is still locked in the underground base, and it is necessary to retreat to the next best thing and get some information to restart the research.
"No wonder Big Brother Roland asked me to use these in front of them, and it was really as expected."
This matter of stealing someone else's things and then selling them to the original owner is probably something that only someone can do so openly.
And since he had already predicted the other party's reaction, Donglan was naturally prepared in this regard.
"Yes, for the specific situation, let's talk to Sister Eliza, she opened a chamber of commerce in Red Maple City, the Schindler Chamber of Commerce, and the arms business is very big."
Hermit thought of the sharp-toothed woman, and he had a stomach ache, the Schindler's Chamber of Commerce he had already taken care of, and he had seen the difficulty of the other party in the trading room, and it seemed that it was impossible not to bleed this time.
However, he didn't lose anything, the Orlandi country has an outrageous foundation, and he can afford to lose, and restarting the research of floating warships is the top priority, and now that the holy war has been restarted, time is running out, and it is very important to start training technical and operational personnel a day earlier.
And when the upper echelons were negotiating arms deals, the war situation took on a new turn.
The orcs began a new wave of offensive, and countless incendiary stone projectiles were thrown at the walls. They carry deadly parabolas. Transform into a shower of meteors falling from the sky.
The burning stone projectiles are incredibly powerful. Every time it falls, it will cause damage to the city wall and inevitably take several lives, but these are only the prelude to each wave of siege.
Under the cover of heavy equipment, the orcs of various tribes raised their heavy shields and began to attack the city, and the aircavalry that descended confirmed that this was definitely not a temptation.
Air cavalry, which is not limited by terrain, and siege equipment that opens the fortress defenses, are always the protagonists of siege warfare. The orcs' air cavalry is dominated by bipedal dragoons, thunder eagle cavalry, and bird-bodied banshees, and the quality is good, but in so many days of hard fighting, the number has been sharply reduced.
"Dragon Knight! That dragon knight is here again! β
The young green dragon named Osmonya and his wolf knight Kakaki had already made a name for themselves in this war, and in the face of the crushing superiority of other air horses, he had already gained more than 100 horses, enough to embroider the badge of the ace of air combat on his chest.
At this time, the city wall was already in chaos, and the bipedal wyvern with the poison sac was spewing venom frantically, and a chain of lightning bolts from the Thunder Eagle could empty it. The spear throwing of the banshee was specifically selected for those archers and commanders, and the strategic goal of the orc air cavalry was clear. Clear the way for the climbing infantry, while the dragon knights, who are the commanders of the air cavalry, are traveling at high speed, destroying the equipment defending the city.
In the past, ordinary human defenders could only fill with human lives in the face of elite orc air knights, risking their lives to force them back.
But this time, things are a little different.
"Inform the Silver Cross that it's time for them to appear."
With an order from the knight princess, the belly compartment of the "Envy" Aurora, which was covering the support with firepower, was suddenly opened, and countless figures jumped out of the air.
"What are you kidding, jumping down so high? They're killing themselves! β
The exclamation of a general undoubtedly represents the opinion of the public, and for ordinary soldiers, this altitude is suicide, unless they can fly, and it is even more incredible if all these hundreds of soldiers have the ability to fly.
But sometimes, the experience of the old era is also a kind of constraint, with the development and progress of the times and technology, the original common sense of war is destined to be broken, this group of guys, can really fly!
"Wake up, Qinglong!"
"Blue Dragon Sword Seal!"
The four spirit sword envoys roared angrily, their respective magic swords emitted dazzling brilliance, and the green dragon sword imprint that was urgently activated surrounded by these four spirit sword envoys, the wind elves responded to the call, and those summoned whirlwinds gave them the power to float in the air and fight.
Of course, due to the limited power of the whirlwind summoned by the Blue Dragon Sword Seal, they only turned from falling to falling slowly, but at this time, they had already proved that they had the strength to fight in the air.
"Hundreds of demon swordsmen? How can it be? β
Metal can isolate the magic effect, and a warrior in metal heavy armor can actually use magic, which is beyond common sense and incredible, but the scene in front of him has to be believed.
After a short period of astonishment, the orc air riders also rushed over quickly, which made it clear that it was the other party's reinforcements, how could they be allowed to land.
"Singular sequence, sword mark overload!"
But the warriors floating in mid-air were not without the strength to resist, with the commander's order, those warriors raised the magic sword in their hands, and the Qinglong sword seal that had been activated was all over-stimulated, and the pale thunder light surrounded the magic sword.
"Singular sequence, empty riding in front of the target, sword mark erupt! Ready, Trinity! Swing your sword! β
All the warriors swung their swords together, and hundreds of lightning bolts burst out of their swords.
One moment the sky was clear, and the next moment the whole sky became a paradise of lightning and thunder, hundreds of lightning lit up the whole sky, and for a while, the eyes of those who looked up at the sky opened like a glow.
"Wow" "Wow"
When they regained their vision, what they saw was that the empty cavalry continued to fall like dumplings, and at least two air cavalry warbands would be removed.
"What kind of forbidden spell is this? It's so terrifying, those magic swordsmen obviously don't have any magic fluctuations on their bodies. β
People from other countries looked at the scene in disbelief, but for those who knew the inside story. The principle is not complicated. That moment. The wind element in the countless green dragon sword seals was turned into thunderstorms, and these lightning bolts, which were not very strong, attracted and interacted with each other, and finally intertwined into a power grid with nowhere to hide.
It's not as powerful as it seems, and its attack power is already very low due to the storm interaction and the user's lack of strength.
But for air combat, attack power is never a problem, as long as the paralyzing effect of lightning strike is still maintained.
The fallen Sky Knights weren't killed as everyone thought, they were just paralyzed by the lightning that had been repeatedly shocked. But from another point of view, falling from such a height, there is no difference between falling to death and electrocution.
Sure enough, except for a few strong air riders who readjusted their balance and flew again, most of the air riders didn't even have time to scream, and just fell directly into meatloaf.
And the sword envoys who used the sword mark explosion here also lost the protection of the whirlwind, but the colleagues of the even sequence who had been prepared for a long time stopped them, and as soon as they slowed down as soon as they accelerated their fall, they began to summon the green dragon sword seal again and began to prepare for the next tactical move.
"Even sequences. The sword mark is overloaded! β
The exact same command sounded on the battlefield again, this time. Many of the clever air rider survivors hurried to flee for their lives, while those "brave" who planned to charge for their lives during the interlude of artillery fire were destined to run head-on into a new wave of thundernets.
"The sword mark has exploded! No countdown! Choose your target and swing your sword! β
The lightning net that flashed people's eyes couldn't see clearly reappeared in the air, this time except for the usual "bang" falling sound, the sky in front of him had been emptied, and there was no one lucky in front of the thunder net woven by hundreds of magic swords.
This time, it was the turn of the swordsmen of the singular sequence to follow their colleagues, "Knock" and "Knock!" When the armored magic sword envoys finally landed safely, the entire battlefield resounded with fierce cheers.
A short confrontation, less than three minutes, the old era of the king of the army of the air cavalry was wiped out, this seems to be just a small battle of local conflict, but in fact it represents that in addition to high-level mages and high-level air cavalry, there is a third way to deal with the air knights - to become a demon swordsman.
The griffin of the human kingdom is not something that small countries can afford, only the human powers above the middle can afford to raise formed air cavalry, and in the barren north, the northerners can only use bows and crossbows to replace the expensive air knights.
On the battlefield for many years, the sky corridor always belonged to the other side, and the air cavalry raid was the trump card tactic of the orcs, and now, the cheers of the warriors illustrate it. "Sue sΓΉ that group of bitches raised, the sky of the Northland also belongs to us!" A man shouted out the words in the hearts of the people of the Northland, and even those new swordsmen couldn't believe that they had achieved such an amazing result so easily.
This is just the beginning, when the magic troops appear on the battlefield in formation, the tactics and strategies of the whole world will have to be reorganized, and being able to come up with this new class of troops undoubtedly proves that the Duchy of Donglan has been at the forefront of the times, and from today on, no one will regard Donglan as a small northern country that is bullied at will.
"This." This time, Hermit can't say that this is the Orlan Empire, magic cultivation must rely on talent, the established magic swordsman is unbelievable from the theory of magic, the mature tactical command is obviously not a day's work, in his eyes, this is probably the treasure that the lord brought back from history.
Renee smiled proudly, from the first contact, she found that the emperor's envoy had always maintained a lofty attitude, as if facing a subordinate who could command at will, at this time, in front of this new tactic and class, before this amazing achievement, the proud Orlan people finally began to bow their proud heads.
"Want?"
Even if Hermit didn't say some words, judging from the eyes full of anticipation, the desire of the emperor's henchman had turned into a prairie fire, and he wanted there, obviously wanting to swallow it in one gulp.
"It's expensive!"
Even on the battlefield, the smiling knight princess still attracted countless enthusiastic eyes, but no one could guess that this girl who was smiling so happily finally had a chance to take revenge this time, and she wanted to knock off the bamboo pole with a dirty mind.
"Buy, buy, buy! No matter how expensive it is, I bought it! β
Hermit was overjoyed when he heard this, as long as the other party is willing to sell this kind of important weapon of the country, he will buy it without his family, and this kind of opportunity will be lost if he misses it, and he will chop his hands if he doesn't sell it.
But hearing this, Renee smiled rather mysteriously.
"As long as you pay the price, there are better and more expensive ones, Timiret, it's time for your little toy to come out and show." (To be continued......)
