Chapter 343: Elennor's Talent (I)
[The fourth watch will be late, conventional.] Try to be before two o'clock]
"That's good!" It was Nicholas who gave out his admiration, he was afraid of suspicion, and he didn't dare to give Salin any advice at all, hearing Elenor's plan, Nicholas couldn't help it, this kind of distribution can make all the power concentrated in Salin's hands, unless all the armies unite against Salin, otherwise these armies can only be Sarin's tools of conquest.
Elenor smiled and continued: "Ten main battalions seem to be a lot, in fact, Metatrin City left 60,000 and allocated 20,000 to each of the two towns in the northwest, let alone control the land in the north, there is no one to guard even the Broken Blade Pass." ”
"The main battalion is going out to fight, after all, you can't rely on demons for everything, demons capture an enemy city, if the garrison also uses demons, then the city will become hell. So it's just a stopgap measure. Metatrin City is ultimately defended by the Court Swordsman Battalion and the Temple Legion. I'm going to talk about the short-term army plan......"
Elenor said, pulling out a magic map and unfolding it on the table.
"To the west of Metatrin City, we can absolutely control the Broken Blade Pass, and after the Broken Blade Pass is built, the defense power will not be lower than that of Metatrin City. In the future, if anyone attacks us, it must be in the north or at sea. If there are more than two magic towers in Broken Blade Pass, you only need 20,000 main forces and 20,000 auxiliary soldiers to definitely defend it. ”
"But I think that the distance between Broken Blade Pass and Xizhen is more than a hundred miles from each other, and they can support each other, so it is better to withdraw the main army and let the undead legion go up, take advantage of the tireless characteristics of the undead, defend Xiongguan to the death, and fight a war of attrition, who will have more magic cores than us?"
Eileno talked eloquently, and pointed to the north of the map, and said: "There are many rivers in the north, and it will freeze in winter, but the enemy is attacking, and it is impossible to rely on the water to build some castles along the coast in the severe cold season, and it is impossible for the enemy to drive straight in." However, the north is relatively open. The rest of the main army was to be stationed at a distance of a thousand miles, and a relatively large city was to be built, mainly for refining metals and protecting the nearby mines. ”
Elenor quickly pointed out some places where the city could be built, and in the blink of an eye, the land of the nobles who had taken refuge in Salin was divided into pieces. Her forces were extremely well distributed, quickly spreading all the forces that Salin could build up on a few major defensive points. Including the defense of Metatrin City, Elenor also made a plan.
Speaking of which, after Elenor finished assigning the task of the army, he began to talk about the problem of equipment again.
Eileno took out hundreds of drawings, put them on the table, and said: "These are all the military equipment I can think of, the lord has a certain number of purple gold sea urchins, these sea urchins are natural space equipment, and they don't need to be controlled by magicians, the smallest space is about five cubic meters, and the big ones are more than ten cubic meters." With these special materials, and the fact that we can also replicate magic chests for transportation, our army has minimal logistical needs. ”
Elenor begins to explain the weapon she designed. In fact, some of the weapons are specific to the Elven plane.
"Elenor, do you want to lead the troops?" Salin couldn't help but ask, having fully recognized Elenor's ability in his heart.
"Absolutely not. Elenore refused.
Salin didn't want to force her, so he said: "Then you can be my Minister of War, I will assign you enough deputies, you won't have to do too much, most of the time, or study magic with me." ”
"Okay. Elenor nodded helplessly, she knew that with so many useful suggestions, Saleen would definitely let herself do more, fortunately, she was an elf, even if she was not a magician, she would have a long life. It may be for this reason that elves are far less enthusiastic and crazy about cultivating magic than humans.
Next, everyone discussed how much of Eleno's drawings could be translated into reality.
Replica magic chariots are an achievable goal, and in the army, without magic chariots, the mage's battle time will be reduced a lot. It is only when the spell is cast in the chariot that the effect of the mage on the army becomes unusual. Otherwise, the mage is also an easy target for enemy attacks, such as a long-range bow and crossbow, which can easily kill a low-level mage.
If a low-level mage is in a magic chariot, unless he is directly hit by an ancient magic cannon, trebuchet, etc., he cannot directly destroy the magic chariot.
The manned flying puppet designed by Elenor is of great interest to everyone.
Now even if it's Alchemy City. None of the manned flight puppets are too good. Saleen had seen the kind of puppet with his own eyes, not to mention being large, extremely easy to shoot down, and even more difficult to fly in harsh environments.
However, the flying golem designed by Elenor is only eight meters long, and the wings spread are about six meters, and the golem can be loaded with a hoplite. For the time being, only Salin can make this kind of puppet in large quantities, because the material of the puppet is thundercloud wood.
The Winged Skull salvaged a large amount of this material in the sea, a plant that grows on the giant plane, harder than the best steel, and tough, not afraid of water, not afraid of fire, and not even afraid of thunder and lightning. This kind of thing can grow into the clouds in the giant plane, and it is a very common plant.
This flying golem can be loaded with hoplites, which means that it can also be used as an offensive weapon in addition to reconnaissance. Armed with an alchemy crossbow, soldiers can shoot down at enemies at the top of the city.
Because it is not afraid of thunder and lightning, this flying golem can take off in rainy weather, if it is carrying fire oil or something. It is also a good option to throw yourself into the enemy's city and burn houses. Aside from the fact that it consumes a large amount of mid-level magic cores when flying, this golem has few drawbacks.
The flying golem designed by Elenore is so beautiful that it looks like a giant work of art. In the pattern of the flying golem, Saleen saw traces of elven magic. Even if this kind of puppet is not made of thundercloud wood, its defense will not be too low.
The manned flying puppet is definitely the design of the elven plane, and this Elenor has finally made Metatrin City her home. Salin knew that it would be harder to get the elves to reveal their secrets than for the mages to break their promises.
Immediately after Eleno's drawings. To convince Saleen even more of this, this is a blueprint of an elven alchemy crossbow. Compared with the human alchemy crossbow, the elven alchemy crossbow may not be more powerful, but the rate of fire is much faster. Salin has the god Sakuragi, which can increase the rate of fire, lethality and long-range attack speed of the Elven Alchemy Crossbow by several times.
Although this thing will cost more gold coins, Salin's self-produced and self-sold god Sakuragi, which has never been sold to outsiders, can completely equip this elven crossbow to the elite of the main army.
The elven alchemy crossbow was taken out, and those who knew the goods had a great change in their opinion of Elenor.
In fact, Elenor also wanted to open it, she even taught the skill of the Spirit Arrow to Neris, do you still care about the elf alchemy crossbow?
Salin looked at the drawings one by one, and found that almost every piece of equipment had traces of elven magic, but these magic had been improved, and they could be made into magic arrays by elemental mages. In those days, humans once led elves and fought with gods, and the magic fusion between the two sides, although it was a short moment, also left countless skills worth marveling at.
Then seeing the elven armor woven from plants, Saleen was not surprised. Eileen Nor specially marked on the drawings that this armor can allow soldiers who can't swim to jump directly into the water without sinking. The entire set of armor is woven from vine plants and then enchanted, and its ability to defend against physical attacks surpasses that of metal light armor.
This elven armor has slightly less defense against fire-based magic, but normal flame burning has no effect.
Magicians basically don't have any burning skills, and this kind of armor is obviously more effective in the face of the Holy See's military land. If you attack Alchemy City, a few mages with strong fire magic can wipe out an entire army.
Needless to say, the benefits of this armor being able to float in the water are alive, and the weight is extremely light, and the lining is comfortable, so that soldiers can wear it all the time without removing their armor.
When it comes to defensive fire magic, the armor of soldiers has always been very good, even if it is heavy armor. In the face of intermediate-level magic, it is also instantly penetrated, and only magic armor can defend against magic attacks. This kind of rattan armor, although it needs to be refined by a magician, does not consume the magic core at all when fighting, and it can be regarded as a kind of equipment between magic armor and heavy armor.
After the next siege puppets, cannon crossbows, cavalry battle flags, elven iron feathers, all of them were taken out, Salin couldn't believe it. Legend has it that the elves are not a race that does not like war?
The equipment drawings were so professional that Elenor couldn't have designed them alone, even for anyone who knew nothing about magic.
What makes Salin feel that Eileno is strong is that these drawings of Eileno are related to the beginning of the army's dispersal and reorganization. With this equipment, the combat effectiveness of Salin's army immediately increased several times. If the soldiers were trained, their combat effectiveness would be no less than that of any of Qin Yin's main legions.
Elenor did all this, Nicholas finally stopped hesitating, and he said to Salin: "I also remember a lot of equipment unique to the Holy See, the last expeditionary force did not have time to equip those things because of the haste of the expedition, otherwise it would ......"
"Otherwise, you won't be able to beat Metatrin City. Neris glared at Nicholas.
"That's, that's ......," Nicholas smirked. Nellis's words, though choking, are true. Even if he brought a lot of heavy equipment, he couldn't destroy the walls and metal turrets of Metatrine. With both of these, the expeditionary force relied on the lives of the soldiers to consume the arrows of Salin, and with non-stop attacks, they opened a gap in the walls of the city. However, the arrows in Saleen City are extremely well prepared, and even if there are millions of troops, it is difficult to deplete Saleen's weapons reserves.
