Chapter 204: The Battle of Legends

Duke Roger was stationed at Gordon Castle on the north bank of the Oram River, a dozen kilometers from the riverbank.

The three counts in the south joined forces, bent on going to Nolan to relieve the siege and avoid King Charles being overthrown, so they could only take the initiative to go north, give up their advantages in water warfare, and take the initiative to find Duke Roger to fight.

After crossing the Oram River, there is an endless plain. On the next journey to Nolan, there is no waterway to go.

Roger has Warcraft cavalry under his command, and if he can't solve this trouble, Roger can attack the logistics line of a hundred kilometers from the Oram River to Nolan at any time.

Therefore, the alliance of the three counts of the south, if they want to relieve Nolan's crisis, must first defeat Roger.

It was already evening when the coalition of the three counts arrived at Gordon Castle.

Duke Roger stood at the head of Fort Gordon and looked at the setting sun, and suddenly had a sense of coldness and magnificence.

The sunset is like blood, and when it sets over the horizon, it is so brilliant.

Roger stared at the coalition of the three counts, wondering why they arrived at the city in the evening since they were in such a hurry to fight.

Walking for a day and camping at night was a serious test of the soldier's physical strength.

A strong army that is not very elite cannot do this at all.

The soldiers under the command of the Third Earl of the South, although they are also considered regular troops, are stronger than the second-line army, far inferior to the main army of Northern Xinjiang, and even a little worse than the Northern Noble Alliance.

The three counts are all experienced people, all of whom have many years of experience in leading troops, and they even took the initiative to give Roger a hole drill.

Roger also suspected that it was a trap, but he was a man who had commanded cavalry for many years and was adventurous when he led his troops into battle.

A good cavalry commander must have a strong spirit of initiative and attack, and many times when attacking, the commander must be asked to take risks.

Now that the fighter plane appeared, of course Roger would not let it go, and he sent scouts to constantly harass the Three Earls coalition army.

While scouting for intelligence, look for traps.

At about ten o'clock in the evening, the Southern Coalition had just set up camp, and Roger immediately led his troops to launch a surprise attack.

The Warcraft cavalry commanded by Roger was very elite and easily broke through the defense line of the Three Earls.

The quality of the coalition army was very inferior, and they were attacked by the Warcraft cavalry, and the dense crowd suddenly fell into chaos.

The earth-shattering sound of fighting drowned out the camp of the Southern Coalition Army.

The Southern Coalition Army was attacked by a surprise attack, and the black light was blind and unprepared, and a camp roar broke out, and the army of more than 30,000 immediately lost its organization and began to disperse on a large scale.

"Why is the combat effectiveness of the Southern Coalition so inferior, as if they are serf soldiers."

An idea came to Duke Roger's mind, and he had the intention to stop the pursuit.

But the routed enemy was like a delicious piece of fat, which made Duke Roger feel like he couldn't stop it.

Because the enemy was routed too easily, the Warcraft cavalry led by Duke Roger chased farther away, and the queue was a little disjointed.

Just as Duke Roger was about to stop the team, an elite Warcraft cavalry suddenly appeared.

Although there are only eight hundred Warcraft cavalry, it is the essence of the three earl families in the south for many years, each Warcraft cavalry is a professional, and the Warcraft war horses are also carefully selected, and many of the war horses are second-order Warcraft. Look at the equipment is better than the Northern Legion Warcraft Cavalry Brigade.

Seeing this force of Warcraft cavalry, Roger immediately ordered a retreat, but the order was delivered a little late.

The dozens of cavalry that rushed to the front had already been surrounded by the Southern Coalition forces and were soon completely annihilated by the enemy.

The South is not famous for its Warcraft cavalry, but the combat effectiveness of this cavalry is extraordinary, almost everyone is wearing enchanted armor, shining with a chilling cold glow in the moonlight, holding polished shiny enchanted shields in their hands, and the soldiers' hot faces carry a bloodthirsty madness.

Facing the encirclement of the Warcraft cavalry of the Southern Alliance, Roger fled frantically with his soldiers.

In this situation, once you are caught. Even a ninth-order legendary knight like Roger could die in a melee.

After all, being attacked by dozens or hundreds of spells, even legendary warriors can't bear it.

On top of the battle array, the legendary knights and legendary magicians have died a lot. Although Roger was a powerful knight, he did not dare to take dozens of soldiers to fight against hundreds of Warcraft cavalry.

The two sides chased and fled, and soon came to the vicinity of Fort Golden.

"Raise the fire."

Roger let out a loud shout, and the soldiers around him lit rockets one after another, igniting the firewood that had been piled up outside Fort Gordon in advance.

The raging fire lit up the outside of Fort Gordon red.

The trebuchets on the head of the city could already see the enemy's position by the light of the fire.

As the bugle sounded, the counterweight trebuchet operator began to load the stone projectiles.

Compared to torsion trebuchets, counterweight trebuchets are more accurate and easier for trebuchets to gain experience.

If it was daytime, the Warcraft cavalry under the command of the Southern Coalition would naturally not easily approach the walls of Fort Gordon and enter the range of heavy trebuchets.

After all, it is very difficult to train a Warcraft cavalry, and it requires a lot of personnel and capital costs.

The three counts have accumulated for many years, and the total number of Warcraft cavalry is only a thousand.

This time, he went north to break the siege and brought eight hundred horsemen at one time, just to hunt Duke Roger.

However, the vision was weak in the night, and it was difficult to grasp the direction distance, and the distance was not far from Duke Roger, so the cavalry commander of the Southern Coalition army ventured close to the city wall and entered the range of heavy trebuchets.

Duke Roger personally made the bait, and the power of the trap was naturally extraordinary.

More than 100 large and small trebuchets were installed in Fort Gordon, 80 counterweight trebuchets and 60 torsion trebuchets. The trebuchets threw stone projectiles like meteors falling.

Even a sixth-order professional was not capable of resisting a two-hundred-kilogram stone projectile that fell from the sky.

As long as they are hit by a giant stone projectile, even people and horses will become meat cakes.

Unless it's a big guy with thick skin like a rhinoceros, it can resist one or two heavy stone projectiles.

After a few rounds of stone shells, the losses of the Southern coalition forces had already exceeded 100 cavalry. For the Warcraft cavalry, which only had a total of eight hundred horsemen, this loss could be described as a nerve-wracking one.

Seeing Duke Roger walking around the city, the Warcraft cavalry of the Southern Alliance Army did not dare to chase after him.

Just when Duke Roger breathed a sigh of relief, a surprise attack suddenly appeared.

A bolt of lightning pierced the night sky and struck at Duke Roger, and it was the four-ring magic lightning spell.

Although the lightning technique was only a four-ring magic, Duke Roger didn't dare to underestimate it at all.

The power of magic depends not only on the number of rings, but also on the amount of magic invested.

Powerful four-ring magic, if you invest sixty points of mental power, it is not uncommon to kill legends.

Seeing the lightning attack, the fire dragon horse under Duke Roger's crotch immediately released a magic shield to block the lightning bolt.

Roger's body lit up with magical aura, and he used the seven-ring magical holy light in his bloodline to protect him and his horse in the magical aura.

This lightning spell was indeed a powerful magic, easily penetrating two defenses and hitting Roger fiercely.

Roger secretly estimated that the power of this lightning spell exceeded the nine-ring magic by a lot, and the power was only a little worse than the legendary magic. It is estimated that the mental power invested is more than twenty-six points.

The powerful lightning technique immediately hit Roger hard, making him feel numb all over his body.

Before Roger could breathe a sigh of relief, a fireball hit Roger.

This fireball was more than a meter in diameter, and at first glance, it was a powerful magic that invested more than twenty points of spiritual power.

Roger's body was struck by lightning, and he was still in a state of numbness, and he didn't have time to dodge.

Fortunately, the fire dragon pony has good magic resistance, and broke free from the numbness in advance, and immediately spewed out a mouthful of flames.

The flames collided with the fireball, and suddenly there was a loud bang, and a wave of heat swept in, burning Roger's flesh and skin, and the strong sting pain finally made him sober up a little.

"The attacker is a legendary magician!"

A thought crossed Roger's mind, but he didn't know anything about this mysterious legendary magician.

Seeing that the mage who was sneaking up on the attack was about to release spells again, the Warcraft cavalry under Roger's command opened their bows and arrows one after another, shooting crossbow arrows at the enemy.

A layer of magical aura lit up on the attacker's body, and the arrows shot were easily blocked, and they were impressively two-ring magic protection arrows.

A second-ring magic actually blocked dozens of enchanted crossbow arrows. It can block dozens of arrows of the Warcraft cavalry at one time, and the mental power invested is at least more than ten points.

In just three spells, according to Roger's estimate, close to fifty points of spiritual power should be invested, and even if it is a legendary magician, most of the magic power should be consumed.

In fact, Roger doesn't know much about the combat power of legendary magicians, and if his mental power breaks through fifty points, he will inevitably awaken a special magical talent.

The most enlightened magical talent of legendary mages is strong spellcasting, and the same magic power is invested, and the magic power of magicians with strong casting talents will be doubled.

In addition, there is also a super long magic talent, and the magic power of mental power transformation is doubled.

There is also a spell delay, spell expansion, spell farther increase, etc., and every time the legendary mage is raised, he can awaken one more talent.

If a second-order legendary magician awakens a long magic power and casts two talents strongly, the spell that has just been released will consume only ten points of spiritual power.

The Monster Cavalry under Roger's command saw that the attacker had blocked the arrow, and immediately asked the mount under his crotch to fire a magic missile.

Dozens of magic missiles hit the attacker, and even legendary magicians, whose magic resistance far exceeded that of ordinary people, did not dare to take dozens of magic attacks.

The attacker immediately used a shapeshifting spell to dodge the wave of magic missiles.

Dozens of magic missiles slammed into the clearing, sending dust and rubble flying in the clearing.

Dodging dozens of energy missiles, the legendary mage once again unleashed a seven-ring magic iridescent jet, spewing a ray of energy at Roger.

It seems that this legend will not give up until he kills Roger. Even if Roger is under the protection of the army, it is necessary to solve the trouble completely.

In the face of this magic of the seven rings, Roger was powerless to stop it.

Seeing that Roger was about to be killed, a gem on his chest lit up.

Three figures appeared beside Roger. These three are none other than senior members of the Grant Mage Guild, led by Pansy Grant.

As soon as the nine-ring magician appeared, he immediately unleashed a seven-ring magic spell reversal, which ejected rainbow light and reflected most of its energy.

Some of the remaining energy rays were also blocked by the magic shield.

Even when reinforcements appeared around Roger, the attackers were unfazed. He stretched out his hand and immediately unleashed an eight-ring magic banishment to the Alien Plane.

The effect of this magic was excellent, and the three Pansy were banished to the Alternate Plane in an instant.

If you want to come back from the heterotopic plane, you need to be proficient in many disciplines such as spatial geometry and plane geometry.

Even if the legendary knight, if the magic resistance is not enough, he is hit by this spell and falls to the alien plane, it will be difficult to come back smoothly, and there is a high probability that he will be trapped in the alien plane.

However, Pansy and the others are both erudite magicians and proficient in dimensional space, and although they can return, it will take a while.

Banished Pansy and the three, the legendary magician who sneaked up on the attack had little magic left, and immediately released the six-ring magic chain of lightning.

Clusters of electric snakes swarmed around him, turning into a long snake and striking Roger again.

Roger let out a loud shout, countless flames jumped out of his body, and the whole person was like a real fire elemental.

Flames ignited from Roger's body, igniting the branches of the trees beneath his feet. Flames burned beside Roger, and a flaming sword appeared above his hands.

The flame long sword stabbed the electric snake fiercely, and the powerful force on the electric snake immediately knocked Roger more than ten meters away.

Seeing that the attacker was about to unleash his magic again, the soldiers beside Roger looked at each other in shock, they never expected the attacker to be so difficult.

The mighty Duke Roger was powerless in the face of this mysterious attacker. It's like an adult beating a child, and it's extremely relaxed.

Roger's guards had been in battle for a long time, and their mental strength was quite good, and they restrained their fear and panic while loosening their bowstrings. Then he urged the Warcraft War Horse and raised his shield to protect Roger's side.

Just as the sneak attack legendary mage unleashed the final blow, a bright sword light appeared from behind the attacker.

When the sword light appeared, the attacker looked stunned and showed an expression of disbelief.

The one who slashed out this sword light was the old Duke of Breener, who had already died.

"It's a successful deception, isn't it? What should I call you, legendary mage Rose Thunder? Or Yelena from House Venus? ”

Duke Brenner is a third-order legend, and thirty years ago, he was also a powerhouse among the hundreds of legendary professionals in the Dawn Continent.

There were countless variations of his sword, sealing all of Elena's retreats. The powerful sword intent froze the nearby space, and all of Yelena's spatial spells were powerless to cast at all.

Unless it is in its heyday, exhausting its spiritual power and releasing the legendary magic space transformation, there is a chance to escape this terrifying sword.

The Duke of Breener's shot was perfectly timed, and he was even prepared to sacrifice Roger, and chose to cut out a fatal sword when Yelena didn't have much magic.

Normally, the combat power of the third-order Duke of Brenner is much stronger than that of the first-order legendary Yelena, but because the magician has mastered many mysterious and unpredictable methods, neither of them should be able to help the other when they fight.

Moreover, the Duke of Breener was successfully plotted by the Venus family, although his own strength was beyond the expectations of the Venus family, he could hold on for a while longer and be able to make a move, but against the legendary magician, even if Pansy and Roger were added, there was no chance of winning.

Because the legendary magician comes and goes freely, and has the initiative in the battle.

This time, the Duke of Burner used a trick to deceive his death, fueling the flames for King Charles to carry out a palace coup, sacrificing a large number of important people such as Prince Chris, so that he could hide from the Venus family and let the secret enemy take the initiative to jump out.

Then he used Roger, the first heir of the Grant Kingdom, as a bait, to successfully sneak attack the legendary magician Elena of the Venus family.

Duke Breenau's sword put Elena in a mortal situation.

Yelena wanted to use the space door to escape, but found that the space had been fixed by the sword intent, and she couldn't open the other space in a short period of time.

A glittering light flashed before her eyes, and in an instant Elena saw her head fall to the ground.

There was not the slightest fear on her face, but a strange smile appeared, as if mocking Duke Brainer.

After killing the enemy, the Duke of Breena seemed to have exhausted his last strength, and said weakly to Roger: "The Royal Janissaries have arrived nearby, can you still command the battle?" ”

Duke Roger clenched his long sword tightly and said, "Of course." ”

"Kid, the future of the Grant family is up to you."

After saying this, the Duke of Breenne used the last of his strength and slowly closed his eyes.

Roger held back his tears, suppressed his sadness, and immediately sent soldiers to contact the Janissaries. The front and rear flanks surrounded the Southern Coalition Army's Warcraft cavalry.

Seeing the appearance of the Royal Guard, the three counts all had a feeling of impending disaster.

If you are not careful, you will lose all the games.

Finding that the general trend has gone, there have been escapes and rebellions among the Warcraft cavalry.

The three counts were very decisive and immediately fled with their cronies to the south bank of the Oram River.

They did not even dare to return to their territory, and fled into the kingdom of Delong in a panic to seek refuge.

The kingdom of Delong has a serious territorial dispute with the kingdom of Grant, and the two countries have had border conflicts for hundreds of years.

Duke Guise and Duke Duran were once great nobles of the Delong Kingdom and joined the Kingdom of Grant with their territories.

If the three southern earls can join the Delong Kingdom with their territories, the situation in the south of the Grant Kingdom will become very dangerous.

In order to prevent the worst, Roger didn't have time to be sad and sent someone to collect the body of Duke Breener. With a lot of injuries, he personally commanded the royal guards, and easily surrounded and annihilated the three earls coalition army. Then there was no rest, and the next day he led the army south to quell the rebellion.

Duke Roger led his troops to quell the rebellion very quickly, and before the three counts could contact the Delong Kingdom, Roger's army captured the territories of the three counts, turning the three southern counties into provinces directly under the royal family.

This time, the Grant family lured the snake out of the hole, and although the Duke of Brenner died, it eliminated the hidden danger, and also won the three rich provinces in the south, and the power became stronger.

After receiving the news of the defeat of the South and the death of the legendary sorcerer of the family, Elena, the members of the Venus family in the province of Gascoigne immediately became in serious trouble.
