Chapter 1272: Why is this so?
Although Princess Angelina was very depressed about Lynch's claim to be king, she quickly reversed her mood.
Because each of the nobles who expressed their allegiance to her was clearly given a list of troops to be sent to her. In other words, the real support is coming!
If nothing else, there are rumors outside that Her Royal Highness the princess lacks troops and may borrow troops from foreign countries.
It's worth it!
All those who could muster some troops expressed their support for the princess, from top to bottom, some out of fifty, some out of three hundred, but together, there were more than fifty thousand.
This is the small nobles, the big nobles give more, the family dominated by Metatrin in the south will send five legions, and the Rhode Island side also said that in two months, it will give a main legion.
The reason is that the new weapon is still being trained and used, and it makes little sense to send troops now.
Rhode Island is telling the truth, the plan of life construction, the Sun Magic Legion, will not participate in this war, and he plans to make the Xia Clan Guards Legion complete first.
For the construction of the Sun Magic Legion, the Xia Clan's Guard Legion is now only a skeleton, and all personnel are missing.
In this replacement, the trained recruits have been replenished, but the recruits who have not gone through actual combat will have to be trained for another two months if they are holding new equipment.
There are a large number of recruits trained on the side of the Six Faces City, and they are now gradually being added to the main army.
For example, the secondary legions are rarely transferred to the main legions, because if they are withdrawn, the combat effectiveness of the secondary legions will be reduced.
In addition, Rhodes Island also prepared a corps of servants to help the princess defend the defeated city.
Life Formation is either unconcerned about this matter, or it is really overstretched.
Attacking the Merifin family does not need so many troops, and the ultimate goal is to capture Silver Goose City by gathering these forces.
In the end, Princess Angelina did not borrow troops from Titan Island, but the two sides signed an alliance that Titan Island would ensure the safety of the southeast coast and would not make trouble for the half-elves because of the internal strife in the empire.
Lynch agreed happily, and also agreed to open the Red Sea City, and if the princess was in need, she could supply supplies nearby.
In terms of price, it is the same as the price of turnover within the empire, but the quantity will not be so abundant, and if it exceeds a certain amount, it will be counted separately.
This is also inevitable, otherwise you will acquire an unlimited amount, and the other party will not lose money.
The princess was not idle, and the coastal cities, and several more, fell, and she ordered the fleet to sail over and take them one by one. The guns of the royal warships are quite powerful, even if it is Rhode Island, it can only be defended by large cities, and if it is replaced by small and medium-sized cities, basically the defense will be torn apart after a while.
Two months have passed in a blink of an eye.
The southern nobles, who gathered five legions, sailed down from the southeast coast, and also sent a fleet to the Rhodes Island side, bringing the strength of the two legions over.
The princess herself is here, gathering two legions, and the current number of elites has reached the scale of seven legions.
The subordinate legions or something, as well as the troops gathered by other nobles, almost more than 200,000 people.
On the princess's own side, there are also servant troops.
In fact, three days after the arrival of the large army of the Metatrin family, the offensive began.
Metatlin's main army easily tore a hole in the north-south defensive line. After cutting through here, the legion went around the back of the defensive line.
The forward troops of several other nobles, flanking from both sides, blocked the defense line of the princess's army, and it only took more than forty hours to be defeated.
Then it was time to rest the ranks and wait for the arrival of the army behind, and when the turn of the year came, the army of Rhodes Island arrived, and the army of the princess group began to go inland.
This is the most populous part of the empire, unlike the north, where there are many wastelands and towns.
Walk almost a few dozen miles, and you can have a small town, or a large village.
At sunset, two squadrons, two squadron leaders, one from Rhode Island and one from Metatling, converged in a ruined fort.
"How can it be so ......" Metatlin's squadron leader, looking at the ruined and burning village, couldn't believe his eyes.
The opponent fought to the death, two squadrons, lost more than sixty robots, one combat vehicle.
The squadron leader of Rhode Island also did not understand why these people hated the empire so much that they would rather die in battle than surrender.
On the front of the ruined fortress, there was a huge gap, which was opened by the chariot cannon, and then it was enlarged by the large robots, and the combat robots behind swarmed in, and finally the defenders in the fortress still held out for more than two hours before they were completely wiped out.
"Do you have big losses?" asked the squadron leader in Rhode Island.
"No, but a low-level structure, level five, was lost. Ruined by a berserker. ”
"I lost a cyclops, alas. ”
"Fortunately, Xiuxiu can continue to use it. "Squadron Leader of Metatrin, comfort this Allied comrade.
"Well, the transporter has been sent away, and the soldier commanding it hesitates. "The squadron leader is also helpless, this cyclops, was supposed to sweep the house with a heavy sword. However, there were civilians in the house, and the soldiers commanding it hesitated, and as a result, the civilians detonated a magical creation, and the cyclops was severely damaged.
In the distance, there were sporadic gunshots, and it was Metatrin's cyborg, searching the nearby wilderness.
Many enemies fled, hiding nearby, ready to attack at any moment.
The dyers of Rhode Island now use a new type of firearm, the Abyss Musket. The Abyss Musket is electromagnetically propulsed, no longer burns potions, and when fired, there is only a slight sound.
"I've heard it's the same in other places. "The squadron leader of Rhode Island, said with deep sorrow.
"The countryside is better, my regiment has a battalion, attacking a small city, where there are only more than 10,000 people, and it has been held for four days. In the end, he had no choice but to use heavy magic artillery to bombard, and then he entered it. ”
"Heavy magic artillery!"
"Specializing in destroying the magic city wall, the battalion general personally guarded it, blocking a few magic attacks on artillery. I heard that the cannon needs to be warmed up for more than four minutes before it can be fired once. After launching, the approximate attack range is more than 100 meters in diameter. ”
On the scientific and technological artillery, the killing of more than 100 meters in diameter is nothing, but in the case of magic artillery, the power is concentrated, and within this range of more than 100 meters, there is really no grass.
"And in the end?"
"Those who did not surrender were killed in the street fighting. Alas......"
"Report to the captain, the bodies are all buried. But I basically don't know the name, so I can't erect a monument. ”
"Forget it, just write something. ”
"Yes. ”
"Wait a minute, let the robots tear this down and build a cemetery, and fence it all off. ”
"Yes. ”
The people below, of course, will not question anything, although this will waste a lot of electricity. They are also very depressed, there are many enemies and even civilians, but they take up arms and fight you, and the muskets they use are also lethal.
Tech muskets, you don't need a professional, you can use them at will, at close range, after a month of training, you can be more accurate, accurate shooting may not work, but hitting a humanoid target is not a problem.
The terrain of the village is quite complicated, and as a last resort, you can only kill all the way through.
This village, in fact, is a manor, it should be a place for small nobles, and there are usually no people. When attacking the village, the defenders of the village, step by step, retreated to the fortress.
The fortress is the villa of the minor nobles, and the strength is not even a castle, and it can only accommodate a few hundred people.
This kind of fortress can't withstand the repeated bombardment of chariot artillery, this is still the house of the nobles of the Arcane Empire, if the house of a commoner, it will be destroyed with one shot.
In the distance, there was a scream from the barracks.
The two squadron leaders jumped up, put down their feelings, and rushed over, and beside them, there were robots running wildly together.
Lying on the ground was a soldier of Metatrin, unconscious, but his heartbeat was still there, and his breathing was steady.
"What's wrong?"
"Wraiths, captain, some of the dead have turned into wraiths and are attacking us. ”
"What about the ghosts?" asked Metatlin's squadron leader.
"Scattered. The soldier pointed to a six-winged apostle next to him and said, "It used its weapon to directly disperse the resentful spirits." ”
The Six-Winged Apostle, two meters tall, wears ornate armor, carries a gun magazine on his back, and carries the Sword of Order at his waist.
The squadron leader lowered his body and looked at the unconscious soldier, who should have been attacked by the resentful soul spell, but the resentful soul had just formed, and the spell was not very powerful, just the most ordinary coma, and drinking a little spiritual liquid could heal the injury.
"Cyborgs can attack wraiths too?" asked Metatlin's squadron leader.
The squadron leader of Rhode Island said, "The new weapon, which should not have been available before, is the latest research from our Rhode Island." This six-winged, secondary weapon is the Sword of Order, within the attack range, it has energy field damage, and it can break demons. ”
"That's right. ”
The squadron leader of Rhode Island, hurriedly checked the battle diary, and sure enough, this six-winged body found that the human being was attacked, it was the closest, and reacted immediately, without waiting for the magic structure in the squadron to make a move, he directly pulled out the sword of order and slashed at the four resentful spirits.
The six-winged apostle of the twenty-fifth level came late, and the two squadron forwards arrived, so they used the chariot to finish the castle. If the six wings were there, there wouldn't be so much trouble.
The command team in the standard squadron, with five bodies and six wings, flew into the air, and with the Judgment Gun, one shot could penetrate the fortress defense and kill the commander inside.
The four resentful spirits have just been formed, and the level is also very low, and the six wings of level twenty-five have not urged the secondary energy nodes in the body, and the sword of order is just an ordinary attack, so the four resentful souls will be killed.
The resentful spirit level is about three or four levels, and the reason why the soldiers who hurt Metatrin are that when the soldiers are resting, they take off their helmets and have no protection. The resentful soul directly attacked the soul, and this soldier was not a magician, just an ordinary warrior.
He was not seriously injured, but because of his strong physical fitness. Professionals don't die so easily.
