"Those mortals know nothing about power! They think that by killing the dragon knights and the giant horse cavalry, they can defeat the Holy Demon Empire." A magician stood on the high ground and looked at the Higgs construction in the distance.
The border fortress, hummed coldly.
The general standing next to him pressed his long sword with his hand and nodded in agreement: "Don't they use their small brains to think about what kind of power makes those giant dragons surrender under our crotch and become at our mercy?"
His mount!"
The mage who spoke took a step sideways, revealing the huge magic circle that had been carved on the ground behind him: "Since they don't know, let them see how the real Holy Demon Empire army fights!"
"Prepare long-range magic attacks!" Following his order, an old man in magic robes shouted loudly. Around him, hundreds of magicians raised their hands above their heads.
A giant dragon was locked by a thick iron chain to a huge metal flatbed truck. The flatbed truck, which was several times larger than a train carriage, was dragged by the mountain-moving beast to the open space where the magic circle was drawn.
At the edge, the surrounding magicians were chanting magic spells, and their bodies' light shone slightly.
There was a tall soldier standing on top of the giant cart. He was holding a sharp battle ax. He raised his arms and slashed the dragon's neck. Under the huge force, the dragon's neck suddenly broke.
About a third of the time, blood spurted out and flowed everywhere.
The dragon was obviously not dead yet. It was struggling under the constraints of the chains, but could not move its body. Those chains engraved with magic runes seemed to have an instinctive binding force on it, so it could not break free from its restraints.
.
The dragon's scream echoed throughout the sky, as if it were the voice left by the God of Death in this world. No matter how the dragon struggled, the blood full of magic continued to flow into the blood groove reserved on the car board.
Then they gather together and pour into the magic circle outlined on the ground at a specific gap.
Blood flowed along the ravines of the magic circle, and the blood with light blue light seemed to boil in the magic circle. The voices of the magicians chanting magic spells around them became more complex and rapid, and words that were not like human words came from their mouths.
gush out.
"The bombardment begins! Let those mortals repent for their ignorance!" Seeing that the huge magic circle in front of him began to gather huge magic energy, the leading magician inserted a whole piece of pure magic crystal ore into the entire
The center of the magic circle.
"Hoo!" A fireball bigger than a house soared into the sky from the magic circle, drew a graceful arc in the sky, and rushed towards the distant Higgs border with an indomitable momentum.
In the shocked eyes of the Airanhir grenadiers, this huge fireball suddenly hit the wall of the huge fortress not far behind them, completely evaporating an entire section of the wall into ashes.
The scorching flames did not completely disappear after destroying the city wall, and then shattered again, devouring the lives around them. With just such an attack, a 30 mm caliber anti-aircraft gun and all the soldiers deployed around it were destroyed.
They have completely disappeared from this world.
And just as the flames were raging on the position here, more fireballs rose into the sky in the direction of the Magic Empire army over there, and flew one by one towards the Eilan Hill defense line on the Higgs border.
"Fire and counterattack! No matter what you do! Counterattack immediately!" An officer put down his telescope, looked back at his adjutant, and ordered loudly: "Let all the artillery fire! Pour your artillery fire on the enemy's position.
Cannonball! Quick!"
"Hoo!" In the sound of his command, behind the magic army of the Holy Demon Empire in the distance, a giant dragon rose into the sky. As this giant dragon spread its wings and soared, there were more giant dragons on both sides of it.
These dragon knights were so densely packed when they took off that they looked like a swarm of wild bees.
Before these dragon knights could continue to climb, flying towards them were the sky-shielding cannonballs fired by Ailan Hill. Before a dragon knight could even twist his body, he was hit by a 05mm caliber
The howitzer hit the wing and fell to the ground screaming.
The 0.5mm caliber shell that penetrated the dragon's wing exploded in mid-air, forming a metal storm and smashing all the surrounding dragons into sieves. However, other shells were not so lucky, and they landed in the Holy Demon Empire.
In the middle of the military formation, it exploded and sent up a cloud of black smoke.
A 75 mm caliber howitzer shell happened to land on a magic circle. The explosion left a huge black smoke crater in the magic circle. The surrounding mages staggered a few steps, and several were injured by shrapnel.
Those who arrived fell to the ground.
In the defensive position of Eiland Hill, through the telescope of a frontline commander, the wild hillside in the direction of the Holy Demon Empire was sieved by artillery shells. Clouds of black smoke rose into the sky, and countless hills were engulfed by huge artillery fire.
shrouded.
The number of fireballs falling on the Eilandhill position is decreasing, but there are still fireballs hitting the trenches or barbed wire fences, exploding instantly and swallowing everything around them. The soldiers huddled in the fortifications that had been built long ago.
Holding your own weapon is an unprecedented experience.
For the 2nd Army of Airan Hill, this was the first time they encountered an enemy that could fight them head-on. In some aspects, such an opponent even had advantages over them in some aspects.
A fireball fell on a trench. Due to the constraints of the trench, the fireball filled the trench and snaked into a long fire dragon. The soldiers in the trench struggled in the flames and then turned into pieces of coke.
The position on the other side is not very comfortable. Eiland Hill's artillery unit seems to have an advantage in numbers. Whether it is a small-caliber 75mm infantry cannon or a large-caliber 55mm howitzer, a hit is enough for the fragile magic.
It is fatal to the legions.
"The dragon is approaching!" A man who had the courage to stick his head out to look at the soldiers on the opposite side shrank back and shouted in horror to his comrades. Following his shout, the soldiers on the machine gun position came out of hiding.
He crawled out, wiped the dust from his face, and got ready for battle.
"Fight to the last moment! Mortals will never be slaves!" An officer pulled out the pistol from his waist, raised it above his head, glared at the approaching dragon in the distance, and loudly encouraged his men.
To his left, a huge fireball just fell, engulfing a machine gun position, a company's defense line, and the soldiers in the trenches, leaving flames jumping everywhere on the ground...
This can almost be compared to the battlefield of World War I. Even if it is only compared in terms of the firepower of both sides, it can be regarded as a cruel modern war. The attack of the magic army is indeed effective. The love within the first line of defense
Landhir's soldiers suffered heavy losses within the first hour of the battle.
"Hoo!..." A giant dragon passed through the defense line of Eiland Hill, and spread out its huge figure above the heads of the soldiers who were on the verge of collapse. Its wings flapped in the wind, rolled up and scattered on the ground.
of flames.
The entire battlefield was like hell, with a burning smell and jumping flames everywhere. Under the scorching flames, the soldiers of Elanthir raised their heads and picked up their weapons.
"Thud! Thud!" The heavy machine gun position that had been silent suddenly roared, and dense tracer bullets intertwined into a huge fire net in the air. The fire dragon spitting flames was suddenly enveloped in the fire net, and it screamed in an instant.
fell to the ground.
As this fire dragon fell, more fire dragons passed by the mortal defense lines. They breathed flames and raged over the battlefield. The mortal anti-aircraft guns fired fiercely, causing these fire dragons to also suffer huge losses.
"Indeed, such a mortal country is enough to be our opponent." Standing on the hillside, looking at the battlefield that had turned into hell in front of him, the leader of the Holy Demon Empire sighed with emotion while pressing his long sword.
He really didn't expect that even if a main force of the Holy Demon Empire was withdrawn from the frontal battlefield, it would still only gain a slight advantage when attacking the Mortal Empire.
Who would have thought that the Holy Demon Empire, which deployed an army of 00,000, could not defeat the border defense line of the small Higgs Kingdom? Who would have thought that the Holy Magic Legion would fight the opponent's artillery to no avail.
?
"The magic attack continues! It begins to extend farther away... Their counterattack at the first line of defense is almost dead. Just let the giant horse cavalry go up and sweep it later." The general looked at the magician beside him,
He opened his mouth and asked: "How is the loss of the Magic Legion?"
"Our losses are acceptable. The enemy's artillery is very fierce, but our magic arrays are spread out, so the casualties are not large." The magician replied calmly.
Just now, his troops lost hundreds of magicians. If these losses were placed on the battlefield against the Norma Empire, they would indeed be tolerable. But such losses would be placed on the battlefield against the Mortal Empire.
, this is a completely different concept.
Compared with their losses, the losses of Eiland Hill can really be described as heavy. The two garrison regiments of the 2nd Army were completely disabled on the front line, and there were very few survivors who even evacuated.
.
The main force on the second line of defense, two of the three infantry regiments under the 2nd Division suffered heavy losses and have lost the ability to continue fighting. The powerful attack power of the magic legion instantly defeated those who had never encountered such a strong opponent.
