Chapter 323: The Secret of the Expeditionary Force (II)

Salin's smile was gentle. Said: "That's hard for you, go and tell Aini to let him come to me." ”

With a smile on his face and chagrin in his heart, he had already known that Neris was ready, and this Judy Koko was hateful, and when he found a reason, he refused to carry out his orders. If he turns his face now, it is estimated that he will not cause a backlash from the contract.

However, this information is very important, Daniel and Aini have more than twenty necromancers, and more than a hundred necromancers, and these people are supposed to be of great use on the battlefield.

Corpse Warfare, especially Berserk Corpses, can disrupt enemy formations and is extremely useful during counter-charges. However, since the soldiers of the Holy See are not available, Daniel and Aini must be informed in advance.

No wonder the speed of the Holy See army was so terrifying, it turned out that these soldiers were like they had eaten a magic potion of excitement, and they had been hit by a deadly magic spell.

In Qin Yin, similar drugs are absolutely not allowed to appear in the regular army, and even the mercenaries dare not use them, only Skolchenya. There are a small number of mercenaries who take similar drugs to improve their combat effectiveness in the short term, at the cost of shortening their lifespan and declining physical fitness.

Salin didn't expect that the Holy See could be so ruthless, willing to sacrifice 100,000 lives to wipe out his own city. If he hadn't built the city wall at the beginning and given up commercial construction, even if he still had two ninth-level magicians this time, he would have been in a catastrophe.

A small part of the magic cores and monster materials that Saleen hunted entered circulation and sold to merchants, and the largest part was still invested in the construction of the city's defense. A lot of magic cores are directly exchanged for ready-made equipment, as well as utensils. For example, crossbow arrows, feather arrows, magic stone bullets, flying golems, etc.

Daniel and Aini arrive at the temple, and Saleen and Naria carefully describe the information that Judy Coco has brought back, and Aini immediately advises Saleen to hide the news. If those nobles knew about this, I am afraid it would shake people's hearts.

Salin nodded, Aini's worries were right, after all, he only had one Metatrin City, and the surrounding land was less than a thousand miles. People's hearts are not stable. These nobles in the core are okay, and those small nobles, when they heard the news, were afraid that they were afraid to abandon the city and flee. You can't escape on land, you can still take a boat.

Although Saleen is a magician, he is also the smartest group of people, and he knows how to deal with this group of nobles.

It would be good for the three kings to come back early, and the arrangement on the city wall could be more secure, Salin personally went to see the magic trebuchet in the city, as well as the defense ability of the temporary arrow tower, and then personally led the soldiers to patrol the city.

The southern wall is built almost on the mountain, and there is a section of more than two miles, which is simply carved on the mountain. Then there is the closed area, although the same walls are also set up, but there is almost no need to think about the defense, Judy Koko is stationed in this section, the south is inhabited by Caucasians, and there are almost 100,000 people in the mountains,

Salin widened the western wall for miles in order to seal off the southern Caucasian settlements once and for all. So that the enemy could not enter the area. Even if you go over the mountains, you will be wiped out by the Caucasus.

As for the defense at sea, there are dragon wreck battleships, as well as more than a dozen white bone warships, plus a magic cannon of Truman on Bai Shifeng, basically it will not be approached by the battleship, let alone anyone will be able to land from here.

What annoys Salin is that most of his enemies will not survive next year, and these enemies do not even think about their own life and death, and even the mage cannot calculate what kind of things can be done.

There were only more than 90,000 people left in the Holy See Expeditionary Force, and these more than 90,000 people rested for three days at the Broken Blade Pass before regaining their combat effectiveness. Archbishop Nicholas himself wondered what was going on.

The striker was frustrated, and brought back not very pleasant news, the enemy's city, well built, fifty miles west of the city, there was a town with a radius of two miles. The size of the town was enough to garrison an army of 100,000, and the enemy dared to go out of the city to fight in the field, and attacked his own forward.

Although the 3,000 cavalry was not the main force, the number of enemies was about the same, and they rushed to kill without any loss.

In previous battles, the enemy suffered many casualties, but this time, the enemy did not even leave a single corpse. This is not good news.

The scouts who approached that town were all killed, and there was no more accurate information, but the sight that the scouts saw with the alchemy telescope at a distance of two miles showed that this was a purely militarized town, which was completely different from the burned towns that he had passed by in the past, and the arrow towers in this town were metal!

The bronze arrow tower of Qin Yinren is something that is difficult to destroy. I don't know much about it myself, I'm afraid that there are powerful magicians in the city.

Early that morning, Archbishop Nicholas called all the legion commanders and regimental commanders to the big tent, and gave the order on a rudimentary map, pointing to the newly marked West Town.

"Besiege this town, and take it in three days. ”

"Yes!"

All the generals were ordered, and Archbishop Nicholas sat wearily in his chair, feeling indescribably uncomfortable. This is a hunch, and all people who have cultivated to his level in divine arts will have a hunch, although it is not as accurate as an astrologer. But it's more sensitive.

The Holy See army is slowly marching, a distance of more than 100 miles, and if you march quickly, you can reach it in the afternoon. In fact, the vanguard of the Holy See's army, more than 10,000 people, had already arrived fifteen miles west of Xizhen, ready to pull out camp and launch an attack.

There are still four days of food left, and this town must be taken within three days, and there will definitely be a large amount of grain in this town. Archbishop Nicholas has no way back. This time, the Pope gave the death order. If he completes, there is hope that he will become a cardinal archbishop, which is a candidate for the next pope. This position, he has been waiting for decades.

The army marched forward, followed by the five thousand jailers of the Inquisition, as well as the black-clad priest. These more than 5,000 people were not in a hurry or slow, leaving Nicholas helpless.

The jailer can be said to be one of the main forces of the Holy See, but it is a pity that only the three chief inquisitors can command. The combat effectiveness of these jailers is comparable to that of the Holy Knights, and the killing is still excessive.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, the army of the Holy See came to the camp of the vanguard, and the vanguard was then marched. Only then did the people from the Inquisition bypass West Town and come to the back. The soldiers in the west town did not attack, but only guarded the city, observing with alchemy binoculars.

The people of the Inquisition saw the ten-story magic tower at a glance, this magic tower was said to have been built in a month, but in fact it had been prepared for a long time, just waiting for the arrival of two ninth-level magicians.

The three mysterious Inquisition Slayers saw the ten-story magic tower and exclaimed, "In this world, there are still people who are so disrespectful to the gods!

The three men laughed, but refused to attack.

Joke, the person who dares to build a ten-story magic tower is at least a ninth-level magician. The ninth-level magician in the magic tower can deal with more than ten times the enemy of the same level, if there are more disciples or something, the defense is stronger, the ninth-level magician in the tower, can control the range of ten miles, even the town, is under the protection of the magic tower.

No matter how arrogant the three brothers are, they will not lead the jailers to attack this magic tower. The Pope's order was to attack the coastal city, which was more than fifty miles from the sea.

The black-clothed priests also had an attitude of being alone, because the three leaders did not speak. Under absolute coercion, they did not dare to say anything. When he came out this time, the referee gave clear instructions that all actions should be taken by these three people. These three people are terrible people who came out of the black prison alive.

When Archbishop Nicholas heard the news, no matter how good he was, he almost blew his lungs.

The people of the Inquisition turned a blind eye to this ten-story magic tower and let their own people attack it. This time, the army sent out by the Pope was only a regular army of 25,000 men, and the magicians of the other armies were all recruited, and none of them exceeded the fourth level.

The high-level magicians under his command are only about 20 people, and all of them are cronies. If the magician in the tower dared to come out and provoke, Nicholas was sure to kill him, even if it was a ninth-level magician, but he was not sure that people were hiding in the tower.

The attack range of magic and magic of the same level is about the same, but with the bonus of the magic tower, the mage gains more than half of the attack range. The magician must withstand the attack of the magic tower in order to enter a certain range and fight back against the magic tower.

This is the same as the church, and the magician will not attack the church. The more believers there are in the church, the stronger the defense, and the bonus ability of divine magic.

Which bastard got the information back? Didn't you say that the city by the sea was just newly built? How could there be a ten-story magic tower? If the Pope knew about this, he would have sent at least ten cardinals to sweep it up.

In the current situation, this battle cannot be fought. The ten-story magic tower can protect the walls on three sides, and on these three sides, no heavy equipment can be used, otherwise it will be destroyed by the mage of the ten-story magic tower clock.

In other words, there is only one aspect of Xizhen that needs to be protected.

Bypass this town to the east? What if this town sends troops out to attack the rear? The soldiers in this town are not the same group of people they met at the border of Phoenix, and they are obviously going to defend to the death. Although the soldiers on the Phoenix border are also very strong, they do not have a decent city to station, so they can only fight and retreat.

Archbishop Nicholas did not talk nonsense with the guys from the three Inquisitions, but flew up a thousand meters and looked down with an alchemical telescope. At this distance, the enemy's alchemy heavy crossbow could not threaten him either, and he could run away at any time.
