368 Steel Torrent, the debut of armored vehicles!

The moment the gates opened, the knights in full gear charged at the sound of the order!

Thundered~

Huge horses' hooves trampled on the ground, splashing clouds of dust, and the knights, clad in iron armor and spears in hand, rushed towards the city like a surging dark cloud.

"For the glory of the Lord!" "Kill those blasphemers!"

An earth-shattering roar, like a wild beast, rolled out, especially loud in the morning light, as if it was about to tear everything apart!

The leader was Gerke, who was dressed in black armor and held a giant scimitar, who had been watching from the outside of the fierce battlefield for a long time, and had already endured it to the extreme, and after receiving the order, the blood in his heart ignited.

He was already hungry and thirsty with the broadsword in his hand, desperate to cut off the heads of those blasphemers and use the blood of those wizards to please the great moon goddess!

However, contrary to their expectations, what came out of the city gate was not the divine punishment army that greeted them from the inside and outside, nor the ragged and hasty fleeing people, but a strange-looking iron box more than two meters high, with a thick and long pipe in front of it.

Is it something new that wizards have researched?

Gerk couldn't help frowning, and vaguely sensed a hint of something wrong in his heart, but the cavalry's momentum couldn't stop, all they could do was charge, charge, and charge again!

"God is equal to me!"

Gerk shouted loudly, the brilliance of his divine magic flickering, and then condensed on the long knife in his hand, believing that the power God had given him was enough to tear everything apart!

However, they had no chance to get close, for the thick barrel soon roared.

Facing the speeding cannonballs, Gerk realized that the iron boxes in front of him were actually mobile cannons!

"Break it for me!" Gerk roared and swung out the long knife in his hand that shimmered with divine brilliance, heading straight for the projectile that was rapidly colliding!

The next moment, the long knife and the projectile collided together, and in the roar and the neighing of the war horse, Gerk's blow actually cut the cannon fire in half!

The knights in the rear were not so lucky, they couldn't stop the projectiles that were galloping, dozens of knights screamed, the armor on their bodies was directly penetrated, and the strong impact force broke their bodies in two, and the stumps were smashed and flew dozens of meters away.

Gerk's eyes were red, and the long knife in his hand swung out again, and the sharp knife qi hit the iron armor, blowing up a concave mark, causing the entire alchemy car to shake violently, but it still continued to move forward without stopping, and the thick barrel also made a deafening explosion again......

At the same time as the sound of artillery fire, there was also machine gun fire......

These days, Lydia and the others have produced a total of five machine guns, except for the three that were taken out to quell the chaos in the royal capital, the remaining two machine guns were placed in the Alchemy Research Institute.

This thing didn't work for the cardinal, so it didn't work, and now it's on the two alchemy armored cars in front of it!

Tongues of fire erupted from the two machine guns, and a barrage of bullets cut through the sky like meteors.

Although Gerk was able to cut through the oncoming artillery, it was impossible to block the dense barrage, and the only way to turn the magic energy supplied to the long knife was to protect it.

It's just a second-ring protective magic technique, how could it be possible to block the barrage of strafing, and in just one second, it exploded under the bombardment of dozens of bullets, and the armor made of stainless steel on his body was also torn to shreds, followed by the strong, scarred body!

The crimson blood continued to splash out, and Gerk's body was soon shattered by the rain of bullets, his face was full of unwillingness, and his broken body fell directly to the ground, being crushed by the heavy wheels......

The torrent of machine guns and armor was just the beginning, and huge airships also appeared above the city wall, and white phosphorus and fire rained down all over the sky, completely turning the tide of the battle!

Even if they realized it later, the bishops had already realized that something was wrong at this moment, this neat array, as well as those strange-looking and powerful steel boxes, all made them realize that this was not the divine punishment army that had infiltrated the royal capital, but their enemy launched a counterattack!

"How is this possible?" An archbishop whispered in horror, a chill welling up in his heart, the current form undoubtedly meant that Edwell had been defeated!

But they clearly felt the Lord's divine light just now, and those damned wizards had no possibility of resisting the power of the gods!

Even if the bishops present no longer want to believe it, they will not be able to reverse the reality, the great rout is almost imminent, but now even fleeing is a luxury!

Their two legs could not outrun four wheels at all, and the great swords and long knives in their hands slashed against the thick armor, and they could only scratch a slight spark, let alone an airship in the air.

The battle quickly turned into a complete slaughter!

The pursuit lasted for most of the day, stretching from the royal capital to more than ten kilometers away, the blood stained the entire land, and the remaining more than 30,000 people surrendered one after another, and the number of people killed is expected to exceed 70,000!

After the battle, Hamm and the others, who had been tired all night, could no longer support it, and lay down in a pool of blood, and cheers resounded throughout the royal capital!

However, compared with the light-hearted freehand of the last time, although they completely defeated the crusading army of the Holy See in this battle, the losses were also unpredictable.

Due to the fact that the Divine Punishment Army directly rushed into the royal capital, coupled with the non-stop divine bombardment on the frontal battlefield, the casualties counted alone have reached tens of thousands!

Among them, the royal capital Praetorian Guards accounted for the majority, because they did not have muskets in their hands, and could only swing their swords in close combat, and they were directly defeated.

Nearly one-third of the royal capital was damaged to varying degrees, with more than 100 official wizards and more than 500 apprentices killed on the battlefield......

Whether it was the casualties or the extent of the damage, Lynn who received the report sighed, and as for the reason why the Divine Punishment Army was able to appear quietly in the royal capital, it had already been tortured from the mouths of those who were captured.

It was a passage from the ghetto to the dense forest outside the city, built secretly by the Grand Prince, known to very few people, and not documented in any way.

After learning this, Lynn immediately sent people to destroy and bury the passage to avoid the next tragedy.

The pilots of the airship did not rest for a moment, and all of them were sent out, some of them were responsible for detecting and monitoring the enemy's situation, and the other part was to go to the sea of fog to find the missing Aurora and others.
