These bishops bear the heavy responsibility of praying to the gods for strength.
After these arrangements by Holy Son Ziyun were completed, the distance between the armies of both sides was shortened to five kilometers.
It looked like two black kelps that were more than a hundred kilometers long and were about to collide.
"Our catapults have an effective range of three kilometers. Give them the order to move forward another kilometer and release the catapults to give them a big surprise!"
Holy Son Ziyun issued the order again.
Now, there are no catapults at all in the Ziyun Empire's army, but if you look carefully, you will find that among the Ziyun Empire's army, between the front row of battle formations and the second row of battle formations at the rear, there are At least a hundred meters away.
At this distance of one hundred meters, only a small number of soldiers were marching.
But these warriors all have special magic bags.
That's the magic bag for the catapult!
Through the magic bag, a catapult with a long range can be dropped directly onto the battlefield, catching the opponent by surprise.
Before Lin Yan traveled through time, the catapults in that world generally only had a range of three to four hundred meters, and those farther away were only seven or eight hundred meters.
But the catapult built by the Ziyun Empire through some magical means has an effective range of up to three kilometers, which is already quite terrifying.
These catapults were not throwing stones.
It is a magic bullet. This kind of magic bullet is made of iron and can easily pass through the defensive array. Once it explodes, it will be very powerful.
In the past wars, Ziyun Empire's catapults allowed them to easily win the war every time.
After a few rounds, the opponent's battle formation in front will be defeated. Then Ziyun Empire launches a charge and can easily defeat the opponent's battle formation in front.
The battle formation in the first row is often the strongest battle formation. It doesn't matter if one or two battle formations are defeated, but once all the battle formations are defeated, it will affect the subsequent battle formations and lead to a complete defeat.
The simplest reason is that after the first row of battle formations are defeated, those soldiers who fled back will attack their own battle formations.
They are all our own people, and killing them is not an option. If we don't kill them, the battle formation will cause them to be in chaos, giving the enemy an opportunity to take advantage of them.
However, Holy Son Ziyun did not expect that just as he finished his three words "big surprise", he saw a large number of flying ships suddenly rising from behind the Fire Empire's army.
The number of these flying ships is a bit beyond imagination.
They were not big in size, but quite agile, and they flew over the Fire Empire's army in the blink of an eye.
"Hey, why are there so many flying ships!"
Holy Son Ziyun let out a light sigh.
After these flying ships flew above the Fire Empire's army, they stopped.
Holy Son Ziyun clearly saw that there were a large number of powerful crossbows on these flying ships.
"Do they want to use these crossbow arrows to attack us? It's interesting. What kind of crossbow can shoot more than five kilometers? Even if it can hide for five kilometers, the shields in the hands of our soldiers are enough to block any powerful crossbow."
Next to Holy Son Ziyun, the eldest prince of Ziyun Empire made a disdainful sound.
Then, the eldest prince saw the front ends of those crossbow arrows burning with blazing flames.
"Fire? It's more interesting."
The eldest prince dismissed it.
Their warriors held heavy iron shields with a thickness of more than one centimeter. What kind of flames could not be prevented by such heavy shields
As for the penetrating power of these crossbow arrows themselves, there is nothing to fear.
There is still a distance of five kilometers between the two sides. Even if the crossbow arrows can fly five kilometers, their power will be exhausted.
Then, under the disdainful gaze of the eldest prince, the densely packed crossbows on the flying ships were launched.
In an instant, thousands of arrows were fired, rushing towards the Ziyun Empire's battle formation at a terrifying speed!
At a distance of five kilometers, these crossbow arrows arrived in just a few seconds!
For the crossbow, such fast speed means only one thing.
That is, these crossbow arrows carry terrible power and have terrible penetrating power.
In the second half of the crossbow's flight, the rocket on the crossbow burned even more vigorously.
For ordinary flames, attached to a crossbow arrow at such a speed, it would have been blown out by the strong wind.
But the bursting fire automatically given by Lin Yan's godhead will not.
Explosive fire is a sub-fire given by the godhead.
The characteristics are the same as Lin Yan's own flame.
That is, as long as the energy points are not exhausted, they will not go out.
Well, the sub-fire will only maintain the characteristics of being an inextinguishable fire for a short period of time, and the energy consumption will be very small, but over time, the burning will still consume energy points, and it will still be extinguished.
"Bear up the shield!"
In the Ziyun Empire's battle formation, all the commanders shouted at the top of their lungs.
"Uh-huh!"
All of a sudden, all the warriors in the Ziyun Empire's battle formation raised their shields and blocked them.
The whole process took less than a second to complete!
These warriors are indeed well-trained warriors.
"This speed is so fast!"
Seeing the speed of those crossbow arrows, Holy Son Ziyun felt something bad in his heart.
However, with such a large range of crossbow arrows, even if the Holy Domain, Legend and Forbidden Curse were all launched, they would not be able to block much.
After all, this is a large battlefield that is more than a hundred kilometers long.
And their reaction time is so little!
In the blink of an eye, all the crossbow arrows fell into the Ziyun Empire's battle formation.
The defensive array did not have a very good blocking effect on these crossbow arrows, and it could not block the explosive flames.
After all, the explosive flames looked quite harmless before they exploded.
"boom!"
"boom!"
"boom!"
When those crossbow arrows landed in the Ziyun Empire's battle formation, they immediately saw flames exploding in the Ziyun Empire's battle formation!
In their battle formation, a line of fire that was more than a hundred kilometers long appeared in an instant!
The bursting fire contained in the crossbow arrows is quite terrifying. There are soldiers beside each crossbow who are responsible for praying for the bursting fire. If a second-level warrior prays once, most of his mental power will be temporarily drained, and it will take several days to recover.
You can imagine the power of these explosive flames.
A large battle formation in the front row of the Ziyun Empire was blown up in an instant.
Not even a heavy shield can protect them!
But it's not over yet.
Immediately afterwards, the second round of crossbow arrows came again!
"Block them!"
Holy Son Ziyun shouted.
He took the initiative and cast powerful wind magic as soon as he raised his hand.
But it was already too late, those crossbow arrows came too fast.
"boom!"
"boom!"
"boom!"
“…”
The deafening explosion sounded again.
In the Ziyun Empire's battle formation, the soldiers were blown over again.
But it's still not over.
Immediately, the third round of crossbow arrows arrived.
This time, the magicians of the Ziyun Empire finally moved, and even the Holy Domain Gabriel moved.
As soon as Gabriel took action, he showed the powerful power of a holy realm.
However, the time was too short, and even he could only protect an area of less than ten kilometers.
"boom!"
"boom!"
"boom!"
“…”
