Chapter 307: Cottage Musketeers (1)

The Knights of the Magic Hand arrived at the Iron City, and the time under the city was about eleven o'clock in the morning, and after arriving at the city, they did not choose to attack without knowing whether they were alive or dead, but stopped far away five miles away, and they didn't even have the intention of getting off their horses and resting.

This also made Mo Duo's plan to take the opportunity to go out and do one of them in vain, unless he rode the fat dragon himself, or with the main cavalry of the Iron Lord, those centaur rangers, if they went out of the city to fight these regular knights, they would definitely not be their opponents.

After noon, different troops gradually reached the outside of the city, first the cavalry troops, estimated at about 30,000 people, and then the infantry arrived one after another, and the troops of hundreds of thousands of troops did not know how long a line was drawn during the march, and it was not until late at night that the army of the Wizards' Guild arrived completely.

After the arrival of the cavalry, they also joined the guard against the Iron City, and it was not until the arrival of the infantry that the bitter infantry began to set up camp under the scolding of the officers.

Countless infantry were scattered outside the city of steel, and the farms and warehouses that the Iron Collar didn't know how much effort it took to build, were directly ignited by the infantry belonging to the Wizards' Guild after the materials that could be used were dismantled.

Even when the harvest season was approaching, the patches of wheat fields were mercilessly burned by them, and looking out from the city, there was billowing smoke everywhere, a scene of the end coming.

The militiamen who were sticking behind the defense line watched this scene, their hearts were filled with indescribable humiliation and anger, and if it weren't for the strict military discipline hanging above their heads like butcher's knives, they would have rushed out at this time and killed those human debris.

Mo Duo and a group of high-ranking Iron Collar leaders were also full of murderous intent in their hearts on a commanding height of the defense line, these places were built by themselves with their own hands, brick by brick, and they were burned down so savagely, it would be fake to say that they were not annoyed.

Even Helena, the little fox, who has been in charge of the construction and management of the territory, instantly turned red in her eyes, and she couldn't bear it so that she didn't cry directly.

"Believe me, I'm going to pay ten, a hundred times more for these SB things. Modo solemnly assured his superiors.

Last night, the camp of the Magicians' Guild army was noisy until midnight before it was basically quiet, but it was only quiet for a few hours, and when there was still a while before dawn, the camp of the pair became noisy again.

"Even the fatigue caused by the march all the way is not good to rest, it seems that they want to take the city of steel as soon as possible!" "The little dwarf who stayed on the city wall until midnight last night, and then rested directly on the spot, rubbed his eyes a little confused, and said to Helena, the little fox who also refused to go back to the comfortable lord's mansion to rest.

Even if he didn't rest well all night in this dirty city, the little fox, who still looked bright, conveniently sorted out the wrinkled clothes for the little dwarf, and replied: "I'll go and have people prepare breakfast at once, and then send it directly to the defense line, it seems that there is a big battle to be fought today." ”

After saying that, after leaving a soft fragrant kiss on Modo's head, he hurriedly led people towards the rear of the defensive line, but after a short while, the side of the steel collar defense line also began to be noisy.

Even when the Wizards' Guild didn't even get dark, they began to bury their pots and cook, but by the time their hundreds of thousands of troops had all finished breakfast and formed a neat formation outside the Iron City, the time had already reached three poles of the day.

Standing on the unfinished watchtower, Modo observed their formation very clearly.

The two wings were all infantry with relatively scattered formations, both weapons and armor were relatively messy, and the number of people on both wings combined was almost 110,000 or 20,000.

Modo knew that this was the mercenary troops hired by the Wizards' Guild, and if they fought a dignified positional battle, these mercenaries might not be as good as those regular troops, but when it came to the melee, these mercenaries who were extremely good at cooperating with small units were a force to be reckoned with.

The opponent's Chinese army is also the most powerful place, with about 80,000 infantry in front and more than 30,000 cavalry in the rear, and the formation is arranged in a very orderly manner.

In the middle of the Chinese army, surrounded by the stars and the moon, there are three powerful legends, as well as nearly a hundred saint-level powerhouses, and then on the periphery are the two thousand mage troops that bring the greatest pressure to the Iron Collar.

In one-on-one, or squad-to-squad battles, mages are the most important force to output damage, but in large-scale wars, the formed mage troops are the most feared force for opponents, even if it is a roaring knights, when encountering them, the best choice is how far and how far to run......

Nowadays, in the large-scale war on the continent of Fira, when the commander issues orders, he mainly relies on limited flags and heralds riding horses to convey them manually, and when Modo saw dozens of heralds desperately beating their horses and galloping towards the two wings, he knew that at most a small confrontation would launch an attack.

So he jumped down from the watchtower and came to the widest point of the defensive line, which was also the command center of the Iron Lord's side, where Helena the little fox, High Priest Tracy, Priest Luna, the Konev siblings, and the heads of the various departments of the realm were almost all concentrated.

More than thirty horned eagle beast air cavalry waited quietly in the open space behind the city, they would be used as heralds in this battle, and the efficiency of using them to convey orders was much more efficient than that of centaur rangers.

The army of the Wizards' Guild began to move, but it was not as Modo expected, first let the mercenaries on both wings consume the strength of the defense line, and then use the headquarters of the Chinese army to open the defense line in one go.

The mercenary troops on both flanks did not move at all, but the Chinese troops gave way to a passage, allowing the infantry of about 3,000 men to advance towards the city alone; this small force seemed to have undergone rigorous training, and they basically maintained their formation even during the march.

However, when they gradually entered the city about three miles below, the people at the head of the city couldn't help but exclaim, and the feeling of incomparable familiarity rose, and the other party was also dressed lightly, and the only protection on the body was the half-body cuirass, plus a steel helmet.

The weapons in the hands of the two thousand or so people in front were all muskets of water, and the more than 1,000 people in the back were carrying a backpack full of things, and a long fire rope was wrapped around their hands.

If it weren't for the fact that the other 3,000 people were all human, everyone at the head of the city would have the illusion that the musketeers and grenadiers of the Iron Collar had rebelled.
