Chapter 102 (1/2)
The roar of the catapult made Locke's eyelids jump.
If you don't take part in the siege of tens of thousands of people, you can't imagine how grand and spectacular the scene is. Stone bullets are flying, giant crossbows are neighing, and countless arrows leap over the heads of the soldiers. It's not a joke to enjoy the cool under the arrow.
Under the forstein army, the soldiers of the third regiment of the eagle regiment have rushed into the attack distance of Otis City, although the third regiment has been criticized by the two Marquis of the eagle regiment for their disobedience and mixed combat effectiveness. But in today's siege, these soldiers proved themselves, not all as evaluated by the marquis.
As the side guarding the city, the attack range of the guard army in Otis city occupies a high terrain, which is far longer than that of Foster's side.
The archers belonging to the soldiers of the third corps have not pulled out their arrows, and the enemy's arrow rain has fallen.
"Raise the shield! Raise the shield!" Each team leader shouted at his men.
Although the third regiment ranks last among the four regiments of the eagle regiment, it is a regiment that has participated in the war for several years. Although it can not be said to be a elite soldier in a hundred battles, most of them are veterans, which is not bad.
"Brush, brush, brush." Each soldier raised his shield. The direction is to the left of the top of the head, which can just block the arrows shooting at your heart and top of the head.
This is Locke's first time to watch the war from a distance.
Their battalion is now in a position at the junction of the lion Legion and the eagle Legion.
The location is wonderful, not only a slightly steep hillside, but also far enough from the city of OTIS. Don't worry that the warring sides will spread here.
Locke even tried the bow and arrow himself. The arrow from here was less than a quarter of the distance to the wall.
I'm afraid only the big killer like the catapult can reach here at the longest range.
Locke was not worried about their safety at all, because behind him was the gate of the magician camp.
"Princess, your Highness the prince has just given an order that we need to use one-third of our magic power to suppress the head of OTIS." A black robed magician said, holding a crystal ball in his hand, which seems to be used to convey and receive information.
"I see!" Angelina was in front of Rock in front of the dress to attend, but rather capable of wearing only a black leather jacket, showing the princess's highness and Emboss of the body.
Unfortunately, a group of magicians here will not appreciate it. In addition to their status, the youngest magician here is over 40 years old.
Although magicians are more powerful than Knights of the same level, their advanced level is much more difficult than knights.
Those who can be pulled to the magician force of the joint military camp are the worst and low-level magic apprentices, and the highest are high-level magic apprentices.
Angelina here is actually the youngest and the youngest.
However, no one will disagree with Angelina. Magicians are casual people. Few people can see the virtual position of this leader, not to mention that Angelina is still a princess.
In addition, the identity of Angelina's mentor also raised enough respect for these magicians.
Foster's only top level magic apprentice is the identity of Angelina teacher.
"Master Mumbai, you will lead the first and second magic team to support it." Angelina politely said to an old man with a white beard.
"Good!" After the simple and comprehensive response, the old man with white beard took more than ten magicians out of the camp.
In the distance, under the city gate of Otis, the leading troops of the third corps have been close to the city gate. The massive arrows and rolling stones make the soldiers of the third Corps pay a lot of lives every time they go further.
"Go! Go! Go!" A squadron grew up and shouted to his men to rush up.
Rolling stones and challenge logs on the city wall are thrown down without money. Down one foster soldier after another.
Otis city has accumulated countless arrows, rolling stones and other materials during this period. In addition, pot after pot of hot oil was burned on one side of the city, and they were beaten when the foster soldiers approached.
The first batch of the eagle army's attack was composed of the third Corps. The third regiment, which originally had 6000 people, plus countless recruits and mercenaries who had just arrived at the front line, soared to nearly 10000.
Not only the third corps, but also other Corps preparing for the relay. This time, the kingdom held back enough strength to re recruit these new troops, which has greatly shifted the population composition of foster.
At present, there are few conscripts in foster's country. The desperate attack was to kill Charlotte with a hammer.
In the first batch of the third corps, more than 6000 people participated in the attack, with an average of more than 3000 foster soldiers at each gate.
This is just the force of a corps. Marquis marmen thought that as long as the soldiers of the third regiment could lean up and entangle the enemy on the city wall, the soldiers of the other regiments could approach with less losses.
In the final analysis, the soldiers of the third corps were just sacrifices, which had to be sacrificed for Faustin's victory.
Outside the Marquis marmen camp, the nobles of faustan gathered here and made a noise. Most of them are officers of soldiers of the third Corps.
"Our battalion is nearly half damaged. Why haven't there been any soldiers to top it?" Cried a fat noble viscount. The sound is so loud that the whole Eagle corps headquarters command post can hear it.
"Yes, yes!" A group of other nobles echoed here.
They are not stupid. The noble guys are not stupid. Their good education makes these nobles understand the plan of the military headquarters at the moment of the war.
