Flags were flying, and soldiers wearing uniform equipment came from all directions to step into this chaotic battlefield.
Under the white flags fluttering in the wind, there is an extremely neat silver-white military formation. The strong shield is engraved with shining stars, and the metal gun muzzles are placed in the gaps of the shield, pointing at the black and red army down the hillside.
.
After several months of fierce fighting, Crancia's excellent mobilization mechanism began to demonstrate its power. Countless young people with military training were reorganized by the state, issued weapons and equipment, and entered the battlefield.
The arsenal at the rear was also operating at full power with the high morale of the workers, and brand-new muskets were produced one after another and distributed to the soldiers on the front line.
Although muskets could not completely suppress the archers of the same era, compared to the high training time and physical requirements of archers, muskets had great advantages in terms of ease of use and popularity.
Time flies by for a year. As the Canghong Empire's army enters the hinterland of Crancia, it is like a spring being compressed to the extreme, and the resistance it encounters is getting bigger and bigger. In the past, it could march hundreds of miles in a week, but now it advances a thousand meters.
It has become extremely difficult.
November 1698
The Canghong Empire's army once again engaged in a decisive battle with Clancia in the wilderness of Fengxiao Province. This time, both sides invested a total of nearly 3 million soldiers, distributed on a front line that was dozens of kilometers long. There was smoke and artillery fire everywhere.
"The army advances!"
Under the scorching sun of winter, the commander of the empire raised the long sword in his hand. Facing the dazzling flash of the sword's edge, the heavily armored bullock riders on the earth began to move forward slowly, and their speed became faster and faster.
These Original Sequence 4 War rhinos from the central part of the empire are the elite private army of Earl Gray Peak. Each rhinoceros is covered with several inches of orichalcum heavy armor. The heavy hooves of the rhinoceros will leave behind traces of the ground when they step on it.
The next deep footprint, when it advances, is like thunder rolling across the earth, shaking and frightening.
Looking at the bronze rhinoceros cavalry in front of them, a short blazing light flashed in the Clancia formation, and the sound of musket shooting was heard in succession.
The dense bullets hit the heavy orichalcum armor, splashing out countless sparks and sounds, and leaving tiny scratches.
"Haha, it's useless. Such an attack can't do anything to my war rhino heavy cavalry." A nobleman wearing a red and white velvet cloak laughed loudly. He was none other than the Earl of Gray Peak who led these war rhinos.
After the imperial army's successive successes at the front, the long-established nobles in the empire finally took action. Unlike the small nobles, many of these nobles came from wealthy families who followed the empire, and their families have always maintained powerful private armies.
This is the strength and power that they are proud of, symbolizing the glory and strength of the family and keeping their famous family intact.
Now that a once-in-a-millennium war has begun, they have also brought out this private army that they have cultivated for a long time, preparing to once again prove the family's glory on the battlefield and gain the merits of opening up a new era.
"Oops."
Behind Clancia, the commanders watching the battle frowned. Although Clancia has added nearly 600,000 new troops, the subsequent 1 million troops from the Canghong Empire have also arrived one after another and joined the battlefield. The originally tilted balance is now
After this, the battle fell into a stalemate again.
"Let the mage team go up and change the terrain to stop those war rhinos."
"Yes, sir." The orderer replied loudly, then waved the command flag to convey the order to the phalanx in the rear.
"Looks like it's our turn to show up."
A graceful mage looked at the flags and flashes on the top of the mountain and understood what the commander in front meant. She was wearing an open-collared uniform with a white base. The cuffs and skirt of the dress had golden edges that resembled metal, and she had a soft black long skirt.
Her hair was draped behind her shoulders, floating slightly under the radiance of magic power.
There is a white flower on the hairband on his head, and the black gloves on the wrists wrap the palms of his hands, revealing the slender fingertips. As the palms of his hands are raised, a floating magical instrument also rises, and it begins to rotate and flow elegantly.
Emit blue magic light particles.
Tilera, Magic Sequence 7·Glory Blue Spinner, the former Lurna mage and Emenas graduate, contacted the sage of Clancia very early and gave him the key
The Magic Steam Turbine was originally one of the few mages who was not involved in the war during the battle between the Frost Alliance and the Starlight Alliance.
After the war, this outstanding mage genius joined Crancia and became the leader of the current mage line in Crancia. Under his study, he was just promoted to Magic Sequence 7 at the beginning of this year, which is now the domestic magic sequence.
The extraordinary person who has traveled the farthest.
"Adjust the magic instrument, aim it at the earth 200-500 meters in front of the formation, and cast the high-level shaping and steel thorn earth spell!"
Her clear voice of command spread around, and mages in uniforms similar to hers responded immediately. Under the adjustment of these hundreds of high-level mages, the magic instrument floating in the air emits blue light, following the set trajectory.
, sweeping the land accurately.
The originally empty land was suddenly covered with blue grid rays, and then dense metal elements gathered to form sharp thorns pointing straight into the sky.
The roots of these sharp thorns are dark brown, and the color gets darker as they go up, until the tips are pitch black, and become sharper and sharper.
When the war rhinoceroses of the Cang Red Empire stepped on the ground full of steel thorns, many of them tripped and fell, and some even had their belly not covered by armor scratched by the steel thorns, causing blood to flow out.
Frightened by the pain, these rhinos began to howl in panic, and some began to disobey orders and refused to move forward. As a result, the march of the Canghong Empire was disrupted and was temporarily stuck midway.
But there were constant gunshots in the military formation on the Crancia side. Taking advantage of this chaotic moment, musket bullets were fired one after another, shooting at the troops behind them through the gaps in the war rhinoceros.
"These nobles who have been pampered for many years are really not good enough. They still have to rely on us." Behind the imperial army, a young man riding a red dragon shook his head, and then controlled the red dragon under him to rise into the wind.
Following the captain, the dragon knights who controlled the red dragon also followed closely, and the Blood Winged Red Dragon Knights once again appeared in the sky.
roar--
The red dragon roared and flames spewed out, pouring down from the sky and sweeping towards the silver-white steel formation of Crancia.
Pieces of light blue hexagonal light curtains rose up, temporarily blocking the pouring flames.
"Huh, we've caught up." Tirela looked at the thin light curtain, took a breath, and then continued to give instructions.
"Let the reserve mages behind prepare defensive barriers. We can't waste our energy and magic power on fighting the red dragon's flames. This way, we will have additional means to deal with emergencies."
"Yes, Chief Tireira." Several dark blue mages pressed their chests and saluted, and then rushed to the back of the military formation to let the middle and low-level mages begin to prepare.
In this protracted war, the two sides continued to increase their power, and extraordinary beings from both sides began to converge on the vortex of the war, whether they were descendants of mages, priests of the sanctuary, orcs in the north, martial mountain people, or remnants of the desert.
The tribes on the land of West Wind will all be involved in this wave of resistance against the imperial attack.
On the other side, the veteran nobles in the empire also led their own private armies into the field, including the mountain hunters from the cold forests in the north, the heavy axe-wielding guards in the west, the light and agile cavalry in the east, and the dragon-breeding warriors in the south.
Messengers, the red-clad messengers in the central court, they will all dedicate their strength to the glory of the empire.
Under the setting sun of blood and fire, the beautiful wilderness of the past is destined to turn into a horrific strangulation ground, shattering countless flowers of life.
