In the end, it was Polg who thought of Merlin, the eldest duke's son-in-law, who had only one child in the family, and who had been trained in all aspects from an early age, including military affairs. Moreover, the Cushing family was a big family in the past, even if they established a principality by themselves, it would be no problem.

Merlin not only understands military affairs, but the Cushing family also has a division of battles, but this army has long been dispersed among the various units, and only a small unit is still in the Cushing family as the duke's bodyguard.

These people have all been baptized by war, of course, they have not fought, but the bandits in the Meka Kingdom are all cleared by these people, and no other troops have been used, which shows that their strength is higher than that of the regular army.

Merlin unhappily accepted the assignment, and she made a request. In addition to the three hundred magic crystal cannons, three hundred giant siege crossbows are needed, as well as three brigades of cavalry for protection.

This request was quickly passed, and there was no shortage of siege crossbows in the Oakland Empire, and in the Guards, there were several divisions of siege crossbow troops. Part of it has already left for the front. Three brigades were drawn from it to supplement the blue sky column.

As for the three thousand cavalry, it is easier, Auckland has never lacked cavalry, and the equipment is the way Merlin thought, she went back to the grassland valley and equipped the last batch of ink armor and ink swords refined by the magister to her own troops, and Emperor Wu Tian couldn't do anything about it, who said that the magicians in the grassland valley gave her face.

Of course, it's not to give Merlin face, no matter how famous the Cushing family is, that's also a thing of the past. But Merlin is half the master of the grassland valley, and these magicians naturally don't care about her. Anyway, they all have to equip the troops, and they won't care about that unit.

In this way, the Blue Sky Column was formed, in addition to the Auckland Military Flag and the Blue Sky Column, Merlin insisted on adding Landis's clan flag, seeing her insistence, Emperor Wu Tian simply issued a warrant to incorporate the Blue Sky Column into the Hurricane Division. And the Hurricane Division is actually not a private army of Feleg, one of the real commanders is the son of Prince Wu Guo, he is very relieved, in addition to Wu Li, Emperor Wu Tian has no suspicions about Feleg, what the magician wants is completely different from ordinary people.

Hearing this, Feleg nodded, in this way, it is true that such a strong force can no longer be a private army, even if there is no blue sky column, the Hurricane Division with a large number of fire snake guns and fire dragon chariots, Feleg does not dare to ask for it anymore. Even magicians have to take care of the emperor's feelings.

When Merlin led the Blue Sky Column and arrived at the battlefield on the Northern Front, it was the most critical moment on the Northern Front. Relying on a large number of fire snake soldiers, fire dragon chariots and various powerful troops, the Western Continent Alliance defeated the Eastern Continent Alliance in two consecutive battles. The ten defenses of the Western Continent were broken one by one.

When the Blue Sky Column arrived, it was just in time for the last line of defense, and it was also the strongest line of defense built on the Eastern Continent only fifty kilometers outside the west exit of the War Gate. If this place cannot be held, the twenty lines of defense in the Gate of War will be even more vulnerable.

Facing the Lausanne Empire and two fire snake divisions, dozens of fire dragon chariots and the main attack of more than a dozen legions. Under the incomprehensible gaze of everyone, the blue sky column lined up the siege crossbows and magic crystal cannons.

First, five siege crossbow salvos. The crossbow arrows of the siege crossbow are the thickness of an arm, the arrow is much thicker than the knight's bayonet, it takes six people to wind it, and a siege crossbow needs ten people to operate, which is one of the sharp weapons in siege warfare.

Its purpose is not to kill or injure many people, but to shoot huge crossbow arrows into the walls of the city wall for soldiers to climb upwards, reducing the amount of damage caused by slow movement with a ladder.

On flat battlefields, siege crossbows are much less useful. This big guy has a limited number of people and an extremely slow rate of fire, so it is better to attack with it than to multi-tune the archers.

Merlin naturally didn't want to rely on it to kill and injure the fire snake soldiers, the accuracy of the siege crossbow was surprisingly poor, and he could only rely on random shooting. When attacking a city, it doesn't matter where you shoot, as long as you can nail it into the walls.

The secret is in the arrows of the crossbow arrows, which are not ordinary arrowheads, with a small amount of memory metal added to the top of the arrows. On the memory metal, Antonio designed a special magic array, which can be filled with a certain amount of magic elements in a short time, and the number is pitiful.

Before the bolt is fired, the magic apprentice adds mana to the arrow, and a few seconds after it is fired, the magic in the arrow will spread out and float in all directions, and it will attach to anything it touches.

After firing five battering crossbow salvos, the Crystal Cannon began to wield. Merlin assigned it very carefully, and according to the attack range of the Blazing Sky Magic, he placed each magic crystal cannon in the most suitable position.

Three hundred magic crystal cannons, discharged several kilometers long, after a salvo, three kilometers away a sea of fire, most of the enemy began to retreat, but the flames chased their butts and rolled and burned.

The fire snake soldiers were better, they withstood several salvos of magic crystal cannons, and just exited the attack range, but the magic seemed to have eyes, and followed closely behind, burning all the way for a kilometer, until the magic power was exhausted.

In this battle, the fire snake soldiers lost thousands of people, more than 20 fire dragon chariots, and the rest of the soldiers were even more incalculable, most of them were burned to char by the raging flames.

This was the largest loss of the Western Continent Coalition in the battle. Since the arrival of the elite troops of the three empires of Lausanne, Thunderfire, and Linshi, small battles are not counted, and there have been two large-scale battles alone. Each time, it was a complete victory over the Eastern Continent coalition forces.

Before finding a way to deal with the fire snake soldiers and fire dragon chariots, the Eastern Army could only keep retreating until the last line of defense. If it weren't for the arrival of the Blue Sky Column, the Magic Crystal Cannon would have taken all the armies of the two continents by surprise.

The reason why the magic crystal cannon has such power is still Merlin's idea, he added the tracking magic invented by Feleg to the siege crossbow arrows, and also made changes to the magic crystal cannon, which was naturally completed by Antonio.

At the same time, the Western Continent also began to study how to better deal with this emerging weapon. The alchemy of the Western Continent was a thousand years earlier than that of the Eastern Continent, so it was naturally more familiar with it. Unfortunately, there are no samples, and the understanding is extremely limited.

The alchemy masters in the Western Army are divided into two factions, one faction believes that this is a larger magic cannon than the fire dragon cannon, so it has a longer range and is more powerful, and the scorching magic was recognized by the magicians in the Western Army at that time, there is no doubt about this.

The other group thinks it's, everyone knows that the bigger the magic weapon, the more magic it needs to carry. The cannon needs to be stronger, this is the simplest alchemy principle, and no one can argue with it.

So far, the magic weapons in the Western Continent are all made of peach fragrant wood, and the magic array is carved with pure gold and silver, with magic crystal powder as the energy source, and refining and stimulating crystals as the guide. The production cost is extremely expensive. Pure gold and silver are now in high demand in the Western Continent. The most precious of these is the magic crystal powder as an energy source. It's a consumable, and no matter how many you have, no one can overdo it.

For the control of the magic crystal ore, there have been countless large and small wars, and until the continental war, the three strongest empires in the Western Continent were still fighting for a vein.

This mahogany is the most common thing used in crafting magical items, and is often used as a base for magical items. Because its elemental conductivity is very good, and it is not afraid of water and fire, it is a rare material, and the best thing is that the number of peach wood is very large, which can almost be described as inexhaustible.

If it's a small magic, it's fine. The higher the level of magic, the more magic the mahogany can receive. In order to withstand greater magic, it is necessary to use thicker mahogany wood, but unfortunately, although there are many kinds of peach wood, it grows very slowly, and it can't grow much thicker over hundreds of years.

It's not that the Western Continent doesn't want to make more powerful magic weapons, but without a strong enough carrier, everything is not to be discussed. So far, no one has been able to solve this problem, and the dragon cannon is already the limit.

If you change to purple mahogany, there is naturally no problem. But that thing is hard to come by, and if you want to use it to make magic weapons, those magicians won't agree.

Therefore, this school of thought believes that today's battlefield is formed by the enemy sending a large number of high-level mages to attack together, rather than the effect of some kind of magic weapon.

After arguing all night and failing to come to a conclusion, the commander of the Western Continent made a decision and tried again. It was a good idea, but unfortunately he was wrong.

Since it was a temptation, the Western Continent naturally refused to send the most elite and precious Fire Snake Division. However, when it comes to ordinary cavalry and infantry, the strength of the Eastern Continent is stronger.

In fact, this is also common sense, for hundreds of years, most of the energy in the Western Continent has been focused on the magic troops, and the construction of other troops has lagged behind a lot, while the Eastern Continent has no magic troops at all, and all the financial and material resources are concentrated on the special troops, so the combat power of the elite troops of various countries is on the Western Continent.

The armies of the Western Continent have all experienced a long period of war. And the coalition forces of the Eastern Continent, even if they are not called recruits, are far inferior to the Western Continent armies in terms of combat experience.

This battle was fought in the dark, the two coalition forces did not back down from each other, and fought to the death, the eastern continent relied on a large number of people and well-equipped, and the western continent relied on rich combat experience, and the soldiers were all veterans.

Day and night, the battle lasted for three days in a row, and the troops that went up rotated several times. The commander of the Western Continent found that there was a problem with his plan, and after three days of fighting, hundreds of thousands of people died, but the opponent's magic never appeared again, but he had no way to judge whether the other party was a magician or a magic weapon last time.

In the end, the Fire Snake Division and the Fire Dragon Chariot Force had to be dispatched, and as soon as they appeared, the Blue Sky Column appeared. The commander of the Western Continent has been very careful, and he still has a lot of losses. He couldn't figure out how strange it was that those magic were not only powerful, but that they were chasing after his ass as if they had eyes.

In any case, at least it is already known that the Eastern Continent also has a force composed of magic weapons, and it seems to be more powerful. And the magicians of the Western Continent are also discussing, why can the magic of the Eastern Continent be tracked?
