"Uh, uh, uh."

The soldiers of the Iron Fist Castle Guards formed a circular square and marched slowly towards the front with neat steps. Every time the 5,000 soldiers took a solid step, they made loud footsteps. So many people marched together. Okay, the sound they made was no noise at all,

In the past, when Ryan led Allendo, Colin, Thomas and others to desperately block the attack of the orc army in the imperial capital, they had already felt the power of this kind of phalanx infantry. A group of trained warriors holding their shields high could form a solid side. shield wall to protect other friendly comrades,

Today, the Guards Corps established by Ryan himself is exactly such a force. From the first day of their establishment, Ryan only emphasizes one point for these Cassano warriors, and that is discipline. After a long period of accumulation, , this army has really grown up. Their whole bodies are covered with armor made of mithril, which is extremely resistant to ordinary attacks, and the mithril shields in their hands have been added with powerful defensive magic by friendly forces. , can greatly weaken the enemy magician's spell attack. It can be said that the Iron Fist Castle Guards Corps is Ryan's most trusted shield on the battlefield.

Adela stood in the center of the entire circular square with an excited expression. When Cassano was still in the middle of a melee between the three families, although the army she could command numbered tens of thousands, the quality of the soldiers was not. There is no way to compare with the Guards Corps. Although Adela is a woman, she has determined to serve in the army since she was a child and establish achievements that are not inferior to those of men. After hard work, Adela began to join the army at the age of 16. Most of the military power of his family is in his hands.

When Ryan followed Vivian into Cassano, Adela also experienced a series of ups and downs in her life. Just when she thought she would probably become a man's plaything and spend the rest of her life in obscurity, she didn't expect her. But under this man, he has such an elite army,

They are trained as the most elite troops in the empire, from the undefeated Royal Knights. They are covered in armor made of mithril, which is more precious than gold. They are supported by two fellow troops who are not inferior to themselves. The most important thing is that behind Adela stands a legendary mage, a powerful existence that can change the final outcome of any battle...

Adela gave orders loudly, directing her soldiers to move forward slowly. Now, she has almost all the external support she can have in her hands. The only thing Adela has to do now is to calm down and concentrate her energy. Use all the power in the world to its extreme, leaving an eternal page in the history of continental wars.

"Stand still." Adela shouted the order loudly. She found hundreds of warriors wearing Wangyue City coming in formation directly in front of them. Although the other party's faces were full of fear, they still did not drop their weapons. ,

"Step." The 5,000 soldiers moved their arms and fingers and stopped directly. This extremely disciplined movement put great psychological pressure on the enemy on the opposite side who planned to resist stubbornly. Adela visually measured the distance between the two sides. Then a request was sent to Barbara in the circular fortress: "Barbara, 150 meters directly ahead, fireball throw."

Barbara agreed softly, and then called on her magic apprentices to start casting spells. These magic apprentices, who could only release magic missiles, were able to skillfully release fireballs after using the skills of combining magic arrays. However, the range of fireballs is usually tens of meters away. If you want to increase the range, you must change the spells and gestures of the entire spell casting process. Obviously, this is something that Barbara's magic apprentices cannot do. Everything they do is It is achieved through countless exercises and cannot be changed at all.

Of course, this shortcoming has been thought of by Ryan a long time ago, and his solution is also very simple, that is, another group of magic apprentices will release an air magic to hold the released fireball farther to adjust the range. Purpose, through this method, although an additional group of magic apprentices will be used, the range of the fireball technique has been increased from dozens of meters to 200 meters. This can already achieve practical effects in warfare.

"Huh." After a large swath of red light flashed, more than twenty fireballs were thrown from above the Iron Fist Castle Guards. These hot fireballs were streaked in the air like stone bullets thrown by a trebuchet. An elegant arc flew directly into the enemy position on the opposite side,

"Boom, boom, boom." A series of explosions immediately tore all the Moon Moon City soldiers who were trying to resist into pieces. However, the range of these fireballs was still somewhat different. Three of them completely deviated from their intended positions and smashed into the side. In the wooden house, the fireball exploded and immediately caused a raging fire in the wooden house. In just a few seconds, a few guys who were covered in flames ran out of the wooden house. Looking at their clothes, they were actually soldiers of Mochizuki City. , obviously they planned to ambush for a sneak attack, but they were killed by a missed fireball.

Adela watched without mercy as the warriors were burned to death on the ground by the fire. She looked around and found that Letoz and Roger's wind-traveling archers had been wandering near her on war horses, planning some plans. The stubborn enemies were shot and killed on the ground, but it was difficult for the war horses to maintain good maneuverability on the streets like on the plains. From time to time, enemies holding the same victims would rush out from the hiding places of the houses next to the streets, trying to kill these wind shooters. They fell to the ground. Unfortunately, their weapons could not do anything to the shooters wearing mithril chain armor. Instead, they were directly killed by the shooters holding mithril swords.

Adela shook her head slightly. The Fengxing Archers should use their mobility to widen the distance between them and the enemy, and then use the sky full of arrows to destroy the enemy. But now they are actually engaging in hand-to-hand combat with the enemy. This is an extremely extreme situation. It's a big waste. Obviously, it is a wrong usage to tie them around the shield wall fortress. They should be allowed to roam freely on the streets of Wangyue City, causing as much chaos as possible in the city. Maybe this fighting method will cause Some losses can inflict a fatal blow to the enemy. It is still worth using after weighing the pros and cons.

Arad turned her head and planned to discuss it with Ryan. Unexpectedly, as soon as her eyes met Ryan, Ryan spoke softly: "You are now the commander-in-chief of the entire army. Even I must obey your command. Ah Della, give yourself some confidence, all you lack is an opportunity, and it's right in front of you."

Adela's heart was filled with heat. She nodded slightly towards Ryan and immediately issued an order, allowing the entire Fengxing shooter to find targets and attack on their own based on a team of 50 people, while Adela continued to move towards the predetermined target. Finally, we will arrive at the center of Wangyue City, where the Magic Guild of Wangyue City is located.

After getting Adela's order, Letoz and the others greeted each other and dispersed. The streets of Moon Moon City are quite spacious. The main streets are big enough for 8 carriages to travel side by side. This is enough for the popular shooters. The horses galloped and quickly tore apart the defense line of Wangyue City. In some streets that were not very spacious, these popular shooters simply dismounted and walked. Some even climbed directly onto the roof and started searching from a high position. As long as they found any warriors from Wangyue City Or magicians, they will immediately use bows and arrows to clear it. Once they encounter huge resistance, they will send out a signal, so that other nearby wind-traveling archer teams will consider them at an extremely fast speed and concentrate their forces to solve the enemy.

The combat methods of the Windwalking Archers are quite similar to those of the Clay light cavalry. In fact, this unit was simply an idea that Ryan came up with after being attacked by the Clay tribe on his way back from the Thunder God Fortress to the Imperial Capital. Therefore, all its combat methods are based on They imitate the famous Clay light cavalry in the mainland. At the same time, because many of these warriors are originally from Orions and have been trained by elven wind archers, coupled with their long-range mithril longbows and full-body mithril protection, In terms of combat effectiveness, it has long exceeded the targets they imitated.

If it is on the prairie, this archer unit will exert even more terrifying power. The expedition to the prairie not long ago has proved this. However, even if it is fighting in the city, it has some discounts in mobility and other aspects. , but the Fengxing Archers were still enough to cause huge damage to Wangyue City. They set fire everywhere, causing panic among the residents of the city. After all, this city has been away from war for many years, and many people have never even seen blood. Once they see it, With the angry scenes everywhere, everyone thought that the magic city had fallen. This naturally greatly affected the morale of Wangyue City and weakened their will to resist.

Of course, the role of the popular archers is more than that. According to some post-war statistics, one of the important reasons why the Magic Guild of Wangyue City is in decline is the rampage of these popular archers. Wangyue City is the capital of magic, and magicians can be found everywhere. , when Cassano's army suddenly launched an attack, these magicians were not immediately effectively organized. Many of them were scattered in every corner of the city. Once such lone magicians were discovered by Fengxing shooters, they would immediately be When a shower of arrows shoots over, they naturally turn into hedgehogs. Even if someone is lucky enough to complete one or two protection spells or uses magic items, they will still become the dead souls under the arrows that break the magic. This is the secret skill of the elven wind archer. It is also one of the fundamental reasons why they have become the nemesis of mages.

Adela still doesn’t know how much damage her temporary order will eventually cause to the entire magic system of Wangyue City. At this time, she is directing her subordinates to continue to move forward. As the Guards Corps gradually penetrates deeper into Wangyue City, it is naturally impossible to completely Everything around was cleared. After all, it would be a pointless consumption of the magicians' mana. Therefore, as long as the entire circular fortress composed of shields could be ensured to pass, Adela allowed the buildings on both sides of the road to remain as they were.
