Immediately afterwards, behind the giant gate, the metal gate of the fortress that had just been opened was automatically re-sealed, and the light on it flickered, obviously a powerful defensive magic barrier was imposed on it.
At this moment, looking at the closed city gates in front and behind and the towering city walls around them, these murderous Holy Night Army soldiers finally realized that they had obviously fallen into a trap.
For a time, the military formations in the huge Weng City were scattered and chaos broke out.
"Don't panic! The mixed magician team will attack the door leading to the inside of the fortress with all your strength. As long as we can successfully rush into the fortress, we can still kill the opponent without leaving a single piece of armor behind!"
After a moment of surprise, the commander reacted first and immediately shouted: "The other soldiers formed a shield formation, and each cavalryman had two reserve shields hung on his mount!"
After hearing the commander's order, the chaotic team suddenly became orderly again.
The soldiers began to quickly take off their shields and adjust their formations under the command of their respective captains.
Many magicians also began to recite incantations and lead the staffs in their hands to the gate in the fortress.
At this moment, the faces of almost all the soldiers had changed from the initial panic to the ferocious look of a trapped beast still fighting, and a strong murderous aura reappeared.
From this, it can be clearly seen that this invasion army is indeed very well-trained.
However, just as the magicians were halfway through chanting the spell, the soldiers had just picked up their shields and had not yet begun to form formations.
Underfoot, which almost no one had noticed, on the originally empty ground, a large number of red and orange magic circles suddenly appeared out of thin air.
At the same time, the various magic energy particles in the air suddenly became extremely manic.
The magic traps that were laid out were activated.
The next second, accompanied by deafening explosions, dazzling flames shot into the sky, and the urn city once again became a mess.
In an instant, the scorching and violent air waves were like invisible giant beasts, mixed with raging fire, rolling and running wantonly, almost suffocating.
Many Holy Night Army soldiers who were caught off guard were thrown directly into the air, and then fell heavily to the ground like cracked iron cans.
And those Holy Night magicians who were concentrating on casting spells were staggered by the explosion, and almost instantly lost their ability to fight.
For a time, the screams of the soldiers, the neighing of the horses, the crackling of bricks, and the futile orders of the commander were all covered up by the earth-shattering explosion, which made people's ears ring.
At this moment, the entire Wengcheng was engulfed in a sea of fire, with black smoke rising everywhere, and a burning smell permeating the air.
At the same time, the Lengyan Army ambush troops who had already been ambushing the towering walls of Wengcheng appeared from all directions.
Immediately afterwards, a large number of sharp arrows, mixed with wind blades, fireballs, earth spears and other magic, fell from the sky, forming a deadly net that filled the sky, sending a second wave of death invitations to the remaining enemies.
Seeing this, Lei Xiao, who was hiding under his cloak, continued to observe while rubbing his slightly ringing ears.
After two waves of fierce attacks, the Holy Night Army was caught off guard and broke into the legion, and was basically disabled.
"Leng Yan's bastards, if you want to destroy me, it won't be easy!"
At this moment, with a roar, three powerful figures of the fourth level physics system ejected straight out of the urn city.
Then it landed steadily on the nearly fifteen-meter-high Wengcheng wall. For them, the blocking buffer defense barrier obviously had no effect.
Almost at the same moment, in the chaotic camp of the Holy Night Army, there were figures of six powerful third-level magicians who also rose into the air and began to cast spells in the air.
Immediately afterwards, as the sharp blades cut through the air, intertwined with the dazzling attack magic of various departments, the cold flame archers and magicians ambushed on the city wall began to fall down like pieces of wheat in an instant.
"Is it really a fight between trapped beasts?"
Noticing this scene, Lei Xiao frowned slightly, and then nodded to Huzhang and Hongye who were waiting beside him.
"Hahaha, don't underestimate us, just nine of us can kill you bastards all by yourself!"
On the city wall, I saw the commander of the Holy Night Army who had just jumped up and was at the level of a fourth-level senior expert. His eyes were full of murderous intent. He waved his battle ax and chopped down a Cold Flame Army soldier who had no time to dodge while grinning ferociously.
road.
Beside him, the two Shengye lieutenants, whose strength was also at the fourth level, also had stern expressions on their faces. They kept waving the sharp blades in their hands, causing shocking pillars of warm blood.
For a moment, the three fourth-level warriors of the Holy Night Army were like a giant harvester, completely unstoppable.
Until they stood in front of a burly figure and a slender figure.
The next second, a huge silver screen of light formed by waving a two-handed sword, and several thin silver lines left behind by the small claws piercing the air, flashed through the hot air.
The Holy Night Army commander's ferocious laughter stopped abruptly, and he and a deputy general next to him fell straight into a pool of blood. His pair of slowly dilated turbid pupils were full of shock and disbelief.
"Fifth...level five strong man?!"
Seeing the two people who were instantly killed, the other lieutenant who was still dripping blood on the blade was shocked. He just struggled to say a few words from his mouth, and he was struck by the sword again.
He fell to the ground, lifeless.
At this moment, what was naturally reflected in the bright red flowing from the side of the corpse was the proudly erect figures of Polygonum cuspidatum and Hongye.
Seeing this scene, a burst of exciting cheers suddenly sounded from the city wall.
Next, after removing the threat on the city wall, the six third-level magic powerhouses that had just launched into the air immediately became the targets of Leng Yan's soldiers.
Under the aim of nearly two thousand longbows, he was quickly shot into a hedgehog by arrows and fell back into the sea of fire below.
Immediately afterwards, a large number of arrows and magic, mixed with the fierce sound of wind, were shot into the urn city...
At this point, the Holy Night Legion that broke out had completely lost its threat.
In other words, distance has been completely eliminated and it is only a matter of time.
"I've finished catching the turtle in the urn, I didn't expect it to be so fast."
Seeing this, Lei Xiao slowly withdrew his gaze and nodded again at Huzhang and Hongye who had returned to his side, signaling to follow him back to the arrow tower just now.
Judging from the current situation, the first step of taking advantage of the situation has been successfully completed.
And the two small, immobile fortresses on the mountainside also contained a legion each.
Then, the next target is naturally the other two legions approaching the city.
As he moved forward, Lei Xiao couldn't help but take a deep breath of the warm air filled with the smell of gunpowder smoke.
"I have to say that the magic traps laid in advance in the Wengcheng just now obviously played an extremely crucial role. They are no different from high-explosive landmines. No, maybe even better."
Gu Di
Nodding thoughtfully, Lei Xiao continued to think: "This will undoubtedly be a great inspiration for the large-scale battles I will face in the future."
Immediately afterwards, Lei Xiao, who returned to the fortress' arrow tower, noticed.
Because everything that happened just now happened almost in the blink of an eye, leaving no time for the enemy to react.
Therefore, the two regiments under the fortress, which were originally well-formed, looked at the re-closed city gate, and saw the explosions and billowing smoke constantly coming from the fortress. They were obviously in confusion and were at a loss.
state.
After seeing this scene, even the ordinary soldiers at the lowest level clearly realized that the invading legion who had fallen into the trap was probably in serious danger.
"Although I can't see the reaction of the Shengye coach, I can imagine that the surprised and angry face must be a very wonderful expression, right?"
Raising his eyebrows slightly, Lei Xiao murmured in his heart: "I'm afraid that the Holy Night Army coach would never have thought that not only had the originally perfect fortress strategy plan been broken by me easily, but I had also defeated the opponent.
military."
Just when Lei Xiao thought of this.
From the position of the Holy Night Army at the very rear, a series of rapid and high-pitched horn blasts suddenly sounded.
Hearing this, Lei Xiao nodded slightly.
Needless to say, this is the signal for the enemy to attack.
"The angry Holy Night Army commander has obviously made up his mind and is preparing to attack the city on a large scale."
Realizing this, Lei Xiao immediately nodded to Hong Ye beside him, and started preparing for the next move according to the plan.
On the other side, Bai Lao and Ariel also rushed over together.
Next, through Bai Lao's description, Lei Xiao learned.
The long-range forces that were ambushed around the urn just now, namely a magician brigade and two archer brigade, have all been transferred back to the city wall in front.
There is also a heavy infantry brigade responsible for protection, which is also in place.
As for the remaining enemy forces in the Wengcheng, they have been handed over to the melee troops commanded by Bert, who are undergoing the final elimination.
"Understood. It seems that the most brutal confrontation will be next."
Hearing this, Lei Xiao looked towards the city wall.
At this time, standing at the front of the battlement was a row of heavy infantrymen holding heavy shields and wearing heavy armor.
I could see that the armors and large shields of these heavy infantrymen were all flashing with faint magical light, and they were obviously blessed with some kind of anti-magic spell.
"This kind of gain type spell can generally only be released by professions such as Holy Light Priests. It can have a considerable extra protective effect within a certain period of time."
Nodding thoughtfully, Lei Xiao continued to think: "Of course, due to the limited equipment level of these soldiers, no matter how powerful the spell blessing is, it will naturally not be comparable to the territorial subordinates with all third-level equipment.
.”
"Speaking of which, at present, apart from Jubai, I have no Holy Light priest-related professions under my command, so I still know very little about these buff spells."
"As for Ye Cang, who is a dark healer or dark priest, he has completely abandoned the buffing spells and converted them into powerful physical abilities and the ability to inflict terrible abnormal conditions."
Thinking of this, Lei Xiao nodded slightly: "I hope that next time when the mansion is upgraded and the population is expanded, a team of priests who are good at healing and applying buffs can be recruited."
Then, Lei Xiao's eyes moved and fell on the row of archers behind the heavy infantry.
I saw these archers with their quivers on their backs filled with arrows and arrows on their strings, obviously ready for battle.
Behind the archers, there was another row of heavy infantry with shields raised, and so on, a team of nearly 3,000 people stood almost over half of the city wall.
Of course, there is still a lot of space left open, which is naturally used for the hidden magic cannon.
As for the magicians in that brigade, they were divided into two parts.
In addition to the gunners of the three squadrons, the rest of the magicians, plus most of the priest group led by Ju Bai, are responsible for supplying magic power to the buffer defense barrier in the hiding place behind the city wall.
Seeing this, Lei Xiao nodded with satisfaction.
In this way, the survivability of the soldiers on the fortress wall can undoubtedly be enhanced to the maximum extent.
After all, according to what Bai Lao said, the more magic power the buffer defense barrier provides, the stronger its ability to offset the opponent's attacks.
As for the giant city gate of the fortress, as well as the giant gate that serves as the second line of insurance, they are both made of special anti-magic materials. Coupled with the buffer defense barrier also covering them, ordinary magic attacks are almost impossible to deal with.
to any effect.
Therefore, before the defensive barrier in the fortress fails, that is, before the magic power of the magicians is exhausted, the Holy Night Army, which has only fourth-level magic powerhouses at most, cannot break through the city gate at all.
At the same time, the other two legions approaching the city immediately began to change their formations and take action after hearing the rapid sound of the attack horn.
Under the pale moonlight, a large number of magic cannons emitting dark light were pushed out by the soldiers, and the muzzles of the cannons were raised, all in a mortar ejection posture.
Needless to say, before the magic power of the fortress defense magic barrier is exhausted, it is more cost-effective to attack the Cold Flame Army soldiers defending it.
After all, no one would sit back and watch the fortress gates being blown to pieces.
At this moment, Lei Xiao, who was on top of the fortress, noticed.
There are more than two hundred magic cannons launched by the Holy Night Army. In addition to the teams of more than two hundred magicians who provide energy for them, there are also a large number of longbowmen standing in a row with other magicians.
Looking around, they are so densely packed that they are almost countless.
"As Mr. Bai said, the long-range force is at least the size of ten brigades. As for the others, they are basically defensive heavy infantry units. Like our own side, they are distributed everywhere."
At this time, Lei Xiao couldn't help but take a deep breath of the chilly night air again.
It has to be said that this scene of tens of thousands of people preparing to attack under the fortress is truly breathtaking.
However, it can be seen from the formation that the opponent is obviously very cautious and always moves outside the theoretical range of the fortress and near the depression.
If the situation goes bad, you can naturally hide in the natural depression behind, greatly reducing casualties.
In this way, it is undoubtedly impossible to completely annihilate or severely damage the opponent.
Even if the fire magic cannon has a longer range, most of its lethality will be offset by the natural depressions.
"Is that true? This depression is not only an excellent barrier to separate the opponent's power, but also, conversely, is the opponent's natural trench."
Seeing this, Lei Xiao smiled slightly. He had naturally been prepared for this.
