Twenty minutes later, the Golden Eagle Knights and the Red Sun Legion continued to penetrate more than ten kilometers south in the Indra steppe, and then they saw the army of the Ruerson Kingdom waiting in front of them.

Gerald picked up the binoculars and looked ahead, immediately frowning.

In the huge army in front of him, which was estimated to have tens of thousands of people, the main fluttering was the various flags of the Ruerson Kingdom, but what really caught Gerald's attention was a flag with a simple pattern and a simple pattern, just embroidered with a half-wing pattern on it.

There is no one on the continent of Sainz who does not know what this flag represents.

That's the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.

"The New Flying Chamber of Commerce escort is also in battle?" Gerald's expression was slightly solemn. "When we set off some time ago, didn't the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce still not make a specific statement, why have they already mixed in now?"

"What's so strange about that?" said Narorov, giving him a blank look. "This time, we made it clear that we were going to the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, if they didn't send an escort team to participate in the war, would they not join the war until we hit the Duchy of Stantin, and when we hit the door of the main base of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce?"

Gerald smiled wryly and shook his head, "That's not what I meant. I'm just on the other side with the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce escort mixed in, I'm afraid today's battle will not be easy. ”

"Sooner or later, we have to meet them, and meeting them earlier can also give us more opportunities to get to know them so that we can deal with them later. ”

Narorov also picked up the telescope and looked at the situation on the other side, also frowning.

"All the countries on the mainland have spread the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce escort team very strongly, but in fact, for so many years. The Xinfei Chamber of Commerce escort team has only shot a few times in total. I don't know where they are so powerful?"

"So. The kind of guy I hate the most is that I don't know the bottom line at all. However, the army of the Ruerson Kingdom has only received some support from the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, and its combat effectiveness has become so strong, so the combat effectiveness of the escort team of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce can be imagined. ”

Gerald sighed, his expression a little distressed.

"Besides, you don't know the power of those military magic machines that the New Flying Chamber of Commerce sold us, and you can't resist it at all with those old things from before. And I'm sure that the new flying chamber of commerce must have sold us some low-level military magic machines, or even military magic machines that were simply eliminated by them. Really good things, they will definitely still pinch in their hands. ”

"It's something obvious. Narorov spread out his hands, looking equally helpless. "Who made the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce the only chamber of commerce in the world to create these things. ”

The two looked at each other silently for a long time, and Gerald suddenly wiped his face hard, and then spat the ground.

"Phew, this hasn't started yet, what are the two of us doing here to keep lowering our morale? The Xinfei Chamber of Commerce escort team must be very strong, but after all, we have many more people than them, and besides, we also have military magic machines, and they dare to fight us arrogantly on this prairie, so we will kill them with people." ”

"Hmm. According to some information gathered by the Glorious Legion, the army of the Kingdom of Ruersun has the ability to launch attacks from a long distance. ...... now" Narorov glanced up, estimated the distance, and raised his right hand in the air.

The captains of several Chiyang Legion teams following him immediately issued orders at the same time, and it didn't take long for the entire Chiyang Legion to stop.

Gerald and Narorov on the side had known each other for many years, and when they saw his movements, they immediately understood what he meant, and immediately ordered the Golden Eagle Knights to stop.

"Okay, it's about five kilometers away from the other side, which should be beyond the opponent's attack distance. Let's get our formation in shape here and get ready to attack. Narorov said.

"Good. ”

Gerald, along with Narorov and several of the Legion's staff, held a brief discussion meeting on the battlefield, and determined the basic strategy for the next step, with the Golden Eagle Knights as the assist, and the Red Sun Legion to use high mobility to attack from both flanks at the same time.

Both of these legions were elite legions with a high reputation in the Candela Empire, and with Gerald and Narov in command, the strategy was now decided, and it didn't take long to put the formation in order.

What made the two of them feel strange was that while they were discussing and determining the battle strategy and preparing the formation, the army of the Ruerson Kingdom on the opposite side and the escort team of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce who didn't know how many people were all staying in place and not moving, as if they were waiting for them to attack.

However, even if they thought it was strange, since they had already led their army here, they could not retreat.

Gerald straightened his outfit, jumped into the cab roof of a large freight magic locomotive, drew his sword at his waist, and pointed high into the sky.

"Attack!"

The Golden Eagle Knights, a total of 23,000 soldiers, immediately marched towards the opposite side in a strict and orderly manner.

At the foreground are the heavily armed shield guards who serve as escorts with giant shields, followed by a team of crossbows armed with magic repeaters and special longbows.

In the middle of the entire formation were one hundred and thirty single-barreled magic cannons that were a little sluggish.

In fact, the single-barreled magic guns produced by the New Flyers are equipped with front-mounted magic trailers, which can travel quickly at speeds of up to 40 kilometers per hour on such plains.

However, although the imitation single-barreled magic cannon developed and produced by the Candela Empire itself is also equipped with a front-mounted magic trailer, it has not been able to solve the coordination between the front-mounted magic trailer and the gun body, and because of material problems, there are often short axes, so the travel speed is forced to be limited to a maximum of only 30 kilometers per hour, and the actual travel speed is only about 20 kilometers per hour, which seriously slows down the speed of the entire team.

Of course, at this time, the distance between the two armies is only about five kilometers, and the difference between a speed of twenty kilometers per hour and a speed of forty kilometers per hour is not so big, and the Golden Eagle Knights only need to drag these magic cannons to an effective attack distance of less than two kilometers.

After the Knights of the Golden Eagle set out, Narorov also gave the order at the same time.

The Chiyang Legion immediately divided into three routes. Along the way, a hundred large freight magic locomotives and 5,000 soldiers were left behind the Golden Eagle Knights as a countermeasure. The other troops each had two hundred large freight magic locomotives. From the left and right wings, they made an arc and wrapped towards the Ruerson Kingdom opposite.

In fact, although the Golden Eagle Knights and the Red Sun Legion have been equipped with a large number of new military magic machines to replace the previous sabers, guns, bows and arrows, the tactical thinking is still mostly stuck in the traditional old concepts.

For example, the tactics used by the two legions this time were nothing more than the central breakthrough and flank outflanks that the Kandela Imperial Army used in the past when their own side was in a superior position.

I have to say that there is nothing wrong with this tactical idea, which can give full play to the characteristics and strength advantages of the two corps.

However...... This war was completely different from all the wars they had experienced before.

When the Golden Eagle Knights advanced to a position about three kilometers away from the army of the Kingdom of Ruersun. The army of the Kingdom of Ruersun, which had been staying where it had been standing still, finally moved.

If you don't move, it's enough, and if you move, it's like thunder.

"Boom, boom, boom—"

A series of muffled sounds came from the army of the Ruerson Kingdom in the distance, and then countless red rays of light flying in the sky were seen flying up from the formation on that side, flying towards this side at high speed.

Gerald was shocked.

The two sides are obviously still a full three kilometers apart, why did the Ruerson Kingdom use magic artillery?

Isn't the magic cannon of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce always attacking at a distance of only about two kilometers?

The next moment, however, the unforgiving facts showed Girard how wrong his judgment was.

The red light in the sky only took a few breaths before it had already flown over the distance of three kilometers between the two sides, and fell directly into the formation of the Golden Eagle Knights.

"Disperse!"

Gerald only had time to shout, but he couldn't give any other orders.

"Boom, boom, boom—"

This time, Gerald's ears rang out with an unusually dull but extremely violent explosion, which almost deaf his ears.

In the midst of explosions. Mixed with the panicked shouts and terrible screams of the soldiers of the Golden Eagle Knights around them.

It was just one round of bombardment, and the Golden Eagle Knights' formation, which was still extremely complete and neat just now, was blown up to the point of looseness.

Gerald forced the shock and the hint of panic in his heart. Grabbing a mage next to him, he cast a sound amplification spell in front of him.

"Don't panic! Stay in formation and charge me forward!

Gerald had already understood in an instant, it was also magic artillery, but the magic artillery equipped by the army of the Ruerson Kingdom was much longer than the magic artillery they were equipped with, even more than a full kilometer.

In this way, before they reach the effective attack range, they can only passively withstand the attack of the enemy on the opposite side, and there is no way to fight back.

At this time, the only option is to continue to move forward, and the consequences of retreat can only be more serious than now.

Gerald's voice instantly reverberated throughout the Golden Eagle Knights through amplification magic.

Hearing the voice of the legion commander, the Golden Eagle Knights, who were a little flustered by the sudden attack, quickly regained their composure, reorganized their formation, and rushed towards the army of the Ruerson Kingdom in the distance as fast as possible.

The two Red Sun Legions, which made a circle on both sides and intended to outflank them, were not attacked by the army of the Kingdom of Ruersun.

At this time, seeing that the Golden Eagle Knights were under the expected heavy bombardment, Narorov did not hesitate to send an order, asking the Red Sun Legion to increase its speed again.

The army of the Ruerson Kingdom clearly wants to bomb beyond their own attack distance, so the only way to break through to close range as soon as possible and disrupt the opponent's formation is enough.

But just as this thought had just been fixed in his mind, several flames suddenly burst out on the grassland in front of him.

With a few violent explosions, the three large freight magic locomotives that rushed to the front flew into the air as if they had suddenly been overturned by an invisible giant, and even rolled in the air a few times before smashing down.

One of them just smashed a large freight magic locomotive in front of Narorov, then rolled twice on the ground and mounted directly on the front of the large freight magic locomotive he was riding.

The violent concussion caused the body to shake wildly, and the unprepared Narorov hit his head on the front block of the cab, and his head broke in an instant. (To be continued......)
