"Send out scouts to give an early warning around the gravel ridge, using smoke as a signal."

……

At the same time, on the edge of the forest on the south bank of the Cecil Whitewater River, Byron stood on the camouflaged shelling position and watched the soldiers use woven leaves and vines as camouflage blankets to cover the acceleration rails of rail guns.

This middle-aged knight who was born as a mercenary did not have the appearance of an aristocrat. He leaned against a half-dead black beech tree with a wooden stick in his mouth, thinking about how to pass the boring time——Firing a cannon is a very important thing. Pleasant, but especially difficult when waiting for prey before shooting.

As if someone in the dark heard his heart, he saw an orderly push through the bushes and walk to the position, and walked straight towards him.

He waved to the orderly from a distance: "Yo, Baniko, what's the good news?"

"My lord, clarify the information," the messenger came to Byron, and reported after saluting, "Earl Pepper led 2 people to attack through the White Water River, and passed the ambush point two days later."

"Hey, 2 people," Byron whistled. "It's not bad. We have [-] to [-], which is much easier than Philip's side. His side seems to be [-] to [-]."

The orderly subconsciously said, "Master Philip still has the Knights of Kant..."

"Those people don't participate in the war," Byron waved his hand indifferently, "Okay, I'll feel more at ease when I hear the news, I'm sure those grandchildren will come now, I'll find a place to sleep... work hard in two days His mother's shot!"

Chapter 0394

In the military area of ​​Cecil Territory, Gao Wen is sitting in the office building of the Military Intelligence Bureau. This place where all the information of Cecil Territory is gathered is now temporarily serving as the command center for this military operation. Horse messengers and carrier pigeons were sent in a steady stream, allowing Gao Wen to grasp the situation ahead at any time.

Standing beside Gao Wen, Amber reported the information that had just been delivered to her: "Kant's line of defense and Baishuihe line of defense are ready, just as you expected, that Hussman really boldly divided his troops——Northern The 5 people marched southward along the Kingdom Avenue-Small Ridge line, and in the west they followed the White Water River and attacked the territory through Tanzan Town. According to their speed, Philip should fight the enemy first."

Gao Wen nodded without worrying at all: "Most of the heavy artillery is deployed in the north of Tanzania Town, where there are hundreds of 'Persuador' light rail guns, plus minefields and shooting bunkers, Philip's side is not a problem. Big."

"5 people—are you really not worried at all?" Amber looked at Gao Wen in amazement, "Although I know you have a big heart, this number is too exaggerated...these 5 people are really If you want to swarm up, I am afraid that even if there is an artillery position, it will not be able to stop it..."

"The problem is that it is impossible for them to swarm up." Gao Wen shook his head while adjusting the perspective of the satellite's overhead view in his mind, "The road at the junction of Windward Hill and Crushed Stone Ridge is bad, and there is no condition for charging or adjusting the army formation at all. And the 5 people Hossman called up...huh..."

Gao Wen couldn't help snorting, the expression on his face was rather disdainful: "I almost don't want to call it an army... The private soldiers of the nobles in this era have almost no military literacy at all. , are more like undisciplined bandits than soldiers, and according to the general law of noble warfare, they do not have a unified command system, and each small unit is completely independent. The artillery bombardment... As long as the giant artillery blasts, do you think it is possible for those 5 people to rush upwards in a group?"

"...Well, I haven't seen a real battlefield anyway, and you are an expert in this area." Amber curled her lips, then looked Gao Wen up and down, "But then again, I'm still a little bit surprised that you didn't go to the front line. Surprised... Didn't it say that the rumored Gawain Cecil would often charge in person and sweep the battlefield? Why are you sitting in the back instead..."

Gao Wen casually threw aside the charcoal pencil that was marking on the map in his hand: "Did you forget that I died when I was in charge in my previous life?"

amber:"……"

"Don't take it seriously, I said it casually," Gao Wen smiled, stood up and walked to the window unhurriedly, "There are two real reasons, first, in the new fighting style of the Cecil Corps, Generals with strong individual strength and charge will become less and less important. I don't need to charge ahead, I just need to ensure that there are excellent commanders on the front line. Second, I stay here... I am in case of possible visits 'guest'."

As Gao Wen spoke, he looked into the distance through the crystal window of the office building of the Military Intelligence Bureau. His sight seemed to have crossed the vast wilderness and woodland in the northern region, and arrived at the windward hills and gravel ridges on the front line...

On the harsh slope of Gravel Ridge, Ropeni Grant raised her head and looked at the increasingly scattered and noisy team in front of her, with a cold and indifferent expression on her face.

The knights she brought guarded her, and the three mages and several priests in the territory were also nearby, and further outside, there were the retinues, militiamen and young men brought by the knights, as a just The viscounty land, which had recovered from the disaster ten years ago, did not have many people sent by Gulenling, but at this moment, there were thousands of people guarding the viscountess. These people occupied the entire "army" It's not too big or too small, but when the bagpipes are played, it's quite lively and looks high-spirited.

Because they had just had a rest not long ago, the entire "big army" seemed to be full of energy at the moment, and the messy soldiers in all directions looked beaming. This was the mood that was about to be able to plunder and earn "glory" was stirring them up. Ropeni Grant watched all this indifferently like an outsider. After passing another crossing, she turned her horse's head and approached a knight with a beard: "Where are we?"

"Mistress, in a few miles we'll be out of the Crushed Stone Ridge," the knight said with a smile, "out of the Crushed Stone Ridge, and further ahead is the Windward Hill."

Luo Peini looked at the bearded knight and suddenly asked, "I still remember ten years ago...you were the guard of the castle."

The expression on the knight's face seemed to be stiff for a moment, but soon turned into a respectful expression: "It's an honor to serve you."

"Of course, this is your honor," Luo Peini showed a charming smile, her eyes swept around, and familiar faces fell into her eyes - the guard of the castle ten years ago, the mage of Glenland Advisers, bridge guards, sentries, captains of the archers...the faces changed in her field of vision. Slowly, their faces seemed to be shrouded in a layer of fire. The blazing fire could knock the castle gates apart. With the scorched flames, her smile became brighter and brighter. That bright look hadn't appeared on her face for ten years, and it suddenly bloomed at this moment, almost making the people around dazzled, "Today is a day full of glory. .”

"A day full of glory!" The knights, followers, and militiamen didn't know why, but since the lord said so, they immediately waved their arms and cheered loudly, "A day full of glory!"

Luo Peini took a deep breath, and at the end of her sight, a little smoke rose from the wild forest, which seemed to be a common forest fire in this season.

The Viscountes body shook slightly, and then supported her forehead: "I'm a little dizzy."

The knight immediately stepped forward to offer courtesy: "Mistress, do you need to stop? We can switch places with Viscount Panilla behind."

"No, you guys keep going forward, I will leave some guards here to rest for a while," Luo Penny shook her head, then looked at the knight in front of her with a smile, "Don't fall behind the team——go forward quickly. "

The knight accepted the order—or rather, he himself did not want to be left behind in this war that was destined to be victorious and plundered countless times, so he immediately turned his horse's head, leaving the mistress behind, and led the The team continued to move forward.

On the other hand, Luo Peini Glenn left the team with less than a hundred guards selected by herself, came to a quiet place by the side of the road, and quietly watched them move forward.

In the wild forest in the distance, a second stream of smoke rose.

Earl Hossman and his team walked out of the gravel ridge crossing. The narrow and difficult mountain road finally came to an end. In front of it was a place with the same bad road condition, full of gravel and potholes, but at the very least, it was An open field.

He couldn't help smiling after walking the mountain road long ago, and around him, the knights had begun to urge the soldiers forward, rearranged their formation on the open ground, and counted the number of people who fell behind by the way—other nobles After the team walked to the open area, they were doing similar things, and this desolate place suddenly became lively.

Earl Hossman rode forward on horseback. He didn't want to condescend to do things that required shouting and losing his grace. As an earl, he had excellent military advisors, so many things were naturally served by military advisors and knights. .

A muffled muffled sound that seemed to come from far away reached the Earl's ears. Although the surroundings were quite noisy, the muffled sound still caught his attention. He looked curiously at the person who heard the sound. Direction - Is the third rain coming this spring?Thunder at this season is not a good sign.

Earl Hossman's thoughts diverged, and then he heard another strange sound from high in the sky, it was a sharp whistle-like sound, and the pitch became higher and sharper, just It was as if something in the sky was approaching.

Then, there was thunder—on the ground.

An unimaginable terrifying loud noise suddenly exploded on the plain, and no one could clearly see what was falling beside them. With the torn human body and horse remains, Earl Hossman felt as if he had been hit by an invisible sledgehammer and flew into the air. Magic lights of various colors burst out from his gorgeous Earl's cloak, and the carefully treasured amulet Almost all the weapons were blown to pieces at this moment, and then he felt the terrible impact directly on himself, his internal organs trembled, his bones trembled, and they were torn apart during the tremors, getting more and more In Gao's vision, he saw more "thunders" exploding one after another in the open ground.

Continuous explosions came, as if hundreds of angry great magicians were swaying destructive magic in the sky, and the entire open area was almost instantly covered by flames, smoke, wreckage and the cries of dying people Arise, the knights howled loudly in fear and astonishment, out-of-control soldiers and horses rampaged on the hellish battlefield, the magicians tried in vain to support all kinds of protective spells, but their few and weak magic shields The entire battlefield is as small and fleeting as a few sparks in the dark—when the magic crystal shells weighing tens of kilograms burst, they can easily tear apart the defenses they had built up hastily, and due to the explosion of mana and chaos, Affected by the flow, many mages who propped up their shields even died faster: the powerful magic impact destroyed their spellcasting environment, and it was impossible for human beings' fragile nervous system to control those violent energies under such circumstances, one by one Mages bled to death behind their shields, their brains burned to ashes by their own magic before their shields were extinguished.

In the explosion, Earl Hossman finally landed, or the part of him including the head finally landed. He couldn't feel where his hands and feet were, but he could feel that his life was dying rapidly. Before it turned black, he saw a scorched and twisted metal fragment suddenly falling in front of his eyes, and a line of text could be vaguely seen on the metal fragment:

...this is our argument.

Chapter 0395 The Defeated North

The catastrophe that fell from the sky still showed no signs of ending.

Unable to see where the enemy was or what the attack was, even the wisest magicians in the Allied forces - if they could think at this moment - could not think of a spell that could be cast. It is so far away, so powerful, and you can't feel the slightest mana fluctuation before hitting it, which simply violates the common sense of magic!

In fact, until the continuous shells fell on the head and the whole open land was turned into scorched earth, only a few people realized that they had been "attacked", and more people still did not realize that the battle had actually ended. Started off, not even realizing that it was Cecil's power that was killing them all.

They were bombed, shattered, and gasified in a daze. In the last few short moments of their lives, they could not even imagine that this disaster, which seemed like a punishment from God, had anything to do with their ongoing "Cecile Expedition" What connection.

It wasn't until almost all the front soldiers were wiped out, and the knights were all dead, that only the mages, knights, and priests reacted, or they guessed the reason for the unimaginable hell in front of them, and some people frantically He roared loudly: "The Cecils! The Cecils are attacking!!"

But the roar was weak like a mosquito in the continuous explosions. Soon, the owner of the roar disappeared into a new explosion crater together with his voice, and more people died when they were blasted by the shells. The shock wave concussion kills.

Fortunately for those who were too slow to keep up with the main force, they were left behind because of lax discipline, and they witnessed the nightmarish scene on the plain from the mountain pass of the gravel ridge, and saw the once powerful The knights and mages rolled over in the "explosion of sky fire", crawling on the ground with their stumped limbs and broken arms. The vanguard of thousands of people was wiped out in a few breaths. Soon there was an equally deadly threat.

The horse was frightened.

The horses of the knights have been trained to maintain a certain degree of calmness in the face of the magic explosion created by the mage, but this kind of training obviously has a limit. The intensive artillery bombardment and the occasional few fireballs are obviously completely different Something, the explosion on the battlefield exceeded the limit that the horses could bear, and more deadly chaos broke out in the coalition forces.

The frightened and out-of-control horses began to carry their masters on a rampage in the army formation. The frightened private soldiers of the nobles immediately lost the suppression of the noble knights, and they all shouted frantically in panic and began to retreat and flee. The courageous nobles and their knights yelled loudly in the chaos, trying to use their majesty to reorganize order, but soon they were also overturned by their horses, and at least one-third of them fell to the ground. In the next few minutes, one person was smashed into a pulp by the horseshoes and iron boots running wildly, while the rest were carried by the fleeing soldiers and ran all the way on the mountain path——

But behind them, troops who don't know the truth keep coming up.

The coalition's front line was too long. When the vanguard was wiped out by the artillery bombardment, the soldiers in the middle and rear were still on the mountain path of the gravel ridge. They heard a loud explosion in the distance and thought it was a The common thunder in spring is echoing in the mountains. Most superstitious southern soldiers believe one thing, that is, the thunder in spring means a bad omen, especially when the spring thunder sounds, you can't stay in the mountains, otherwise you will be turned into a The stone on the top of the mountain—then the follow-up troops quickened their pace and collided with the troops in front who were trying to retreat.

One side is desperately trying to escape, while the other side is still moving forward. All noble private soldiers are using different flags, orders, and even speaking dialects from different places. Huge chaos erupted on the hills of Crushed Stone Ridge. Soldiers who were at a loss were surrounded by the crowd and ran around. Some were pushed back to the doomsday plain, while some rolled down the cliff in chaos. The sound finally began to spread towards the gravel ridge, and whoever yelled "We have lost the battle ahead!" caused the chaos to explode to a fatal level.

Viscount Carroll was forced back by the troops in front. Now he doesn't know what happened in front of him. He only vaguely heard someone mentioning that it was related to the thunder, and the soldiers who had gone crazy shouted while running. Cecil had 1 great magicians, and instantly destroyed Earl Hossman and his entire regiment. These crazy news and the fact that the coalition forces are fleeing now hit the viscount's poor heart. He tried hard to maintain his balance on the horse. While moving to the north under the guard of the knights, his brain was so confused that he couldn't think at all.

The mighty coalition army has completely disintegrated, falling apart like a broken plate. The knights and noble lords tried several times to restore order, but in the end they could only run back with the large army. Can't do it, in the middle of the gravel ridge, more than 20 surviving nobles and their followers are scurrying around like headless chickens. Carroll looked around in panic, and saw that the people who could keep up with him There were less than half of the people left - the rest of the people either fell down the hillside or were scattered by the swarming crowd.

But slowly, Viscount Carroll found that the fleeing people had gathered together again. In the team, he found a somewhat familiar flag with the emblem of the Gülen family on it.

Viscount Ropeni Glenn galloped out of the crowd, surrounded by a group of strong guards who looked calm and reassuring. She came to Viscount Carroll and said loudly: "Follow me—I A group of people has gathered! Let's run to the northeast!"

The high-pitched voice and simple and straightforward way of speaking of the Viscount did not look like a noble at all, lacking enough modifiers and embellished endings, but at the moment Viscount Carroll felt extremely kind and reliable, so he immediately rode up to follow, While yelling at the loyal knights behind him: "Follow up, follow the flag of the Gulen family! Leave those militiamen and serf soldiers alone!"

Outside the gravel ridge, on a high ground quite far from the battlefield, a cleverly camouflaged tower is hidden in the canopy of several giant trees. On the observation post at the top of the tower, a soldier wearing Cecil armor He put down the long binoculars in his hand.

The soldier turned his head and said to his colleagues behind him: "Signal, three reds and two yellows."

After a while, several small special-made light grenades were launched into the sky, and several colored smoke burst out in the sky.

On Windward Hill, a messenger ran to Philip: "My lord, the observation post has signaled—half of the artillery has hit, and the enemy has already begun to flee."

"It turned out that minefields and near-defense positions were not used at all...It really is a group of rabble," Philip couldn't help but shook his head, "Forget it, stop firing after the heavy artillery hits this base, and send a signal to the second brigade to let They bite their enemies, don't let them go."

After the messenger left, Philip sighed slightly: "Although the signal flare is a good thing, it can only convey such a simple content... I don't know when the communication device that Master Kamel mentioned before will be tested. ..."

After sighing, the young knight raised his head and looked at the place where the Kant knights and the Second Corps they led were staying.

Wald and his men have not yet recovered.

The continuous roaring of huge accelerator cannons, the orderly order and execution, the low-pitched explosion sound from far away, the war is completely different from what they have recognized.

This is not like a "battle" where knights and warriors fight face to face, but rather like some kind of running machinery... just like the mechanical clocks made by skilled craftsmen.

Cecil regiments precisely flip switches, guns fire with precision, enemies die with precision—run it, and you get the results.

It wasn't until this moment that Margarita and her fellow knights realized why the lord didn't need the Second Corps and the Kant Knights on the battlefield... For them who are not even proficient in using ray guns, this The battlefield can only add to the chaos.

But just when the Kant knights fell into shock and self-doubt, Philip joined them.

"Knights, don't you want to participate in the battle - now the task for you is down."

Walder Peric looked at Philip in confusion: "We? Haven't we already finished fighting?"

"Who said that the war is over if the enemy retreats?" Philip laughed. "Before the expedition, the lord told me a word - the enemy has the right to fire, but we have the final say when to cease fire." Earl Hossman sent the gauntlet to Cecil before, and now Cecil will use his own way to respond to his challenge... Knights, organize your troops, and go to pursue them with the First Corps the enemy of crime."

Although I always feel that there is something wrong with these words, the Kant knights who finally got the chance to perform don't care about these details-the opportunity of thousands of people chasing tens of thousands is not so easy to come across.

They immediately ran excitedly to select their own troops, ready to lead the army.

And when the mighty coalition army of 5 people was defeated in the Broken Stone Ridge area in an instant, and a farce of grand escape began, another army gathered under the call of Earl Horsman didn't know their northern brothers at all. A terrible fate befell.

The chunky Earl Francine Pepper stood on the bow of the boat, taking advantage of the cool wind on the river to dispel the trance and dizziness caused by the hangover last night. He looked at the large and small warships on the river not far away, and thought of the 2 people are rushing to the front line under their own command, and they can't help but feel a sense of high spirits.

Earl Pepper is not a person with high prestige in the southern border, but his family has been passed down in this land for a long time. In fact, as early as Cecil's era, Earl Pepper's ancestors were already local nobles here. Well, in the great turmoil 100 years ago, the Peibo family saved their title and fief by standing in line in time. Although they were still inevitably implicated by Cecil, their prestige and influence were not as good as before, but At least—Pepper's surname is still the earl's surname.

Francine Peibo's vision has always been to revive the glory of the family, so that the name of Peibo can regain the right to speak in the southern border and gain the influence in line with his earl title.

Now, he felt that his chance had come.

When Earl Hossman launched the "Magic Net", he gave great support to Karloff Hossman to help Karloff Hossman repair the magic net to all parts of the southern border, and was the first to respond when Earl Hossman called for troops , and used all the inland watercraft accumulated by the family for generations as "warships". Facts have proved that his investment is worthwhile.

He finally had these 2 people, and he had the opportunity to lead an allied army as an earl to gain fame.

As long as he can open the road from the Whitewater River to Cecilland, and ensure the safety of the banks of the Whitewater River before Earl Hossman's army goes south, he can make the name of Pepper famous in the southern region again.

Chapter 0396 The Defeat of the Second Coalition Army

The Whitewater River meanders, flowing from the southern part of the Leslie family's territory to the northern foot of the Dark Mountains. Earl Pepper stands on the bow of the "warship", watching the newly built city wall of Tanzan Town slowly in sight. Slow back, heart full of ambition.

"Warship" is just a bluffing term. In fact, it is just a large merchant ship sailing in the inland river, but the Peipo family has always mastered the best shipbuilding technology in the southern region. Any kind of ship they built is the same type of ship In this place far away from the sea and without real warships, the merchant ships transformed by Francine Pepo are the best warships.

And having said that, ever since the Church of the Storm fell into the Son of the Storm and human beings were completely blocked on the mainland by the magic tide in the sea, the age of great navigation has ended, and the various nautical technologies and surface combat concepts that have just sprouted have hardly changed. Development was aborted, human beings had tossed for hundreds of years on the limited inland rivers, and it was inevitable that the technology of warships fell behind.

These "warships" transformed from merchant ships and cargo ships are already the proud capital of Earl Peibo.

A nobleman who was familiar with Francine Pepo stepped onto the bow and stood beside Earl Pepo, looking at the receding Tanzanite city walls, he couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "Look at these brand new city walls, Andrew Viscount Leslie built them in a year...God knows how much he made off those shiploads of ore."

"Backed by Cecil who is full of gold and silver, the sick child of the Leslie family can become rich as long as he gets three or two scattered gold coins from his master," Francine Pepper looked at with an arrogant expression. On the city wall of Tanzan Town, he saw that although the city wall was all newly laid bricks, he could not see the shadows of rolling logs and hot oil pans between the wall stacks. The old trebuchet was placed on the newly built city wall, and he couldn't help shaking his head, "However, a person who gets rich is shallow after all, and he finally obediently stepped aside, with no glory or benefit to speak of." At most, we can get a neutral tranquility from this 'cooperation'."

"I heard that he wanted to stand on the side of the Cecil family at the beginning, and left the envoy you sent for many days," the noble next to him sighed, "until Earl Hossman wrote a letter and sent the envoy himself, He just agreed to open the river and let the army cross the border...it is too unwise. If I had known this, he would have cooperated from the beginning."

"If he cooperated from the beginning, I would be worried that he would throw stones from the river when the army passed by," Earl Pepper couldn't help laughing, "That Viscount Andrew has been with him since last year." Cecil's family is coming together, and it's normal for him to hesitate when the situation changes."

While talking, dozens of mighty ships of all sizes have already sailed through the river in front of Tanzan Town, while the sparse soldiers of the Leslie family stood on the city wall, watching helplessly as they prepared to attack Sisi The coalition forces led by Seoul passed in front of them.

After the wind direction changed, the speed of the fleet began to increase. The dual strength of sails and oars made these sturdy and huge wooden ships rush towards Cecil's collar like sharp arrows. The runes further reduced the impact of the water surface waves on the ship. After sailing like this for about half a day, continuous dense forests began to appear on both sides of the front of the fleet, and the Baishui River became narrow and turbulent.

Earl Pepper came to the bow of the boat again. He looked at the situation on the river with a little curiosity, and found that there was no other ship in his field of vision except his own fleet.

This seems to be normal. People who are a little bit better informed should have heard about the war. At this time, there will be no other ships sailing on the river.

But he was curious about where the team was now, so he called out to a knight standing guard nearby: "How far is it from Cecil?"

"My lord, we are almost at the lumberyard of Shuanglin Village!" The knight immediately replied with a salute, "Shuanglin Village is the westernmost village in Cecil Territory."

"Very well, let's take down that place first, and then divide half of the people to go ashore and attack along the river bank," Earl Pepper nodded, then he looked at the lush forests on both sides of the river, couldn't help but raised his hand with a smile and said "Look, the river here is narrow, and there are dense forests on both sides. If those Cecilians have a little courage, set up a few battle mages in these dense forests to ambush with tidal spells, or attack with heavy crossbows and catapults. Chances are we'll lose a ship or two..."

In the concealed shelling position on the south bank of the Baishui River, Knight Byron climbed up a tree and looked at the fleet passing by the river. After the team was halfway through, he finally burst out laughing, then picked a fruit from the side and threw it under the tree The orderly: "Signal! Fuck your mother!"

Two seconds later, dozens of dense air explosions suddenly broke the silence in the dense forest. Dozens of light "Persuader I" magic crystal shells and several heavy "Justice I" heavy shells surrounded the forest. With light blue magical brilliance, it rushed out of the muzzle of the acceleration orbit, out of the vines and leaves used for camouflage, and drew arcs of death one after another in the air, landing heavily on the fleet led by Earl Peibo central!

Boom boom boom!

One column after another of water jets suddenly rose between the fleets. Together with the water jets, there was a huge explosion and the shock waves generated by the explosion. The two warships were unfortunately hit in the first salvo. In the face of this inexplicable big explosion, the shell was like paper. The first ship was blown up in the middle and broke into two pieces on the spot, while the other ship was even more miserable-a heavy heavy shell hit the ground. Its bottom exploded, blowing the entire ship out of the water, causing it to be torn apart in the air!

One second, the river was still calm, sailing quietly, and the next second, the skyfire exploded and died tragically. Almost no knights and militiamen on the warship realized what happened, and they fell into huge chaos. Among them, the screams of the personnel and the mourning of the dying livestock instantly resounded through every ship, but in the shelling position on the south bank, Byron Knight just got up from the ground.

"Shocked me down!" This mercenary-born knight seldom restrained himself in front of the lord, let alone talk about chivalry in front of his own soldiers. He yelled loudly, "I'll shoot after I've spotted it! How dare you hit two after dozens of cannons go down?! The 'Persuader' artillery crew, hit the closest one first—don't follow the heavy artillery to make trouble!"

The camouflage on each railgun was removed, and the continuous blasting sound began to echo throughout the entire position. In the middle of the Baishui River, the "fleet" of the coalition forces that was still mighty and majestic not long ago has fallen into a great panic. and catastrophic chaos.Although due to insufficient artillery training, immature new weapon tactics, and the difficulty of shooting moving targets on the river surface, most of the shells are still falling into the water, but the huge water column in the water and the warships that shattered in the explosion from time to time still make those Those who are still alive are terrified, but what makes the knights and mages on the ship feel even more desperate is that they have no way to fight back, and even have no way to get safe!

These people on warships, they just stay on board. 90.00% of the people here have no concept of fighting people on the water. These so-called "warships" have almost no ability to meet the enemy on the water. They are set up on the deck. The several heavy crossbows and small trebuchets on the ground are useless at the moment-the people who operate them can't even see where the enemy is!

In the final analysis, ships are nothing more than vehicles for this coalition army. The battle they really imagined should be to let knights and soldiers go ashore to fight after the ships landed-just like every "war" in the past.And in all fairness, the same should be the case in noble wars. The Cecilians should even take the initiative to give way to a section of the river bank so that the soldiers of the coalition army can disembark and organize their formations, and then proceed to the majestic duel of knights and the confrontation of the army... It is the rule of war between nobles!
