Tang En had divided the 5,000 people into 100 teams. Each team was made up of 40 Holy Knights and 10 Ellington elites, who were responsible for firepower. It was as if each team had four healers to support them. Four to one, this was a sure win!
"Quick, quick, quick!"
Léon yelled, "Team 001-010, prepare to land immediately! Team 011-020, get ready! Don't waste time! "
The teams came to the edge of the City of Silver in order and stepped onto the floating platform. Under the control of the magicians, the ten floating platforms immediately left the edge of the city and descended towards Lothamar Castle below.
According to Tang En's plan, there was no need to use any floating platforms to descend. They could just directly descend. The City of Silver would send ten extraordinary magicians to follow them and cast a Slow Descent Spell on them when they were about to land.
Unfortunately, the teleportation to the City of Silver drained the mana pools of the extraordinary magicians. They had completely lost their ability to cast spells in a short period of time.
The soldiers of the Solant Kingdom who were blockading Lothamar Castle were stunned by the sudden descent of the warriors from the sky.
"Oh Gods! Did they descend from the sky!? "
"Who are they!?"
"Look at the insignia on their armor! Are they the Holy Knights!? "
A soldier pointed at the Holy Knights in disbelief. "Oh Ye 'bierni! Are they sent by the God of Light to save us?! "
Sky!?
Some of the soldiers looked up at the sky. After turning their heads, they suddenly sat on the ground with their mouths agape. They pointed at the sky behind them and exclaimed, "Sky, Sky City!?"
The other soldiers saw the City of Silver in the sky behind them and were all stunned.
"Idiots!"
A captain shouted in exasperation. "That's the City of Silver! The City of Magicians! Oh Gods! What the hell!? Isn't the City of Silver on the southern coast!? Why did you suddenly come to Lothamar?! "
Even though the City of Silver was floating at an altitude of five thousand meters, it still exerted a strong pressure on the people below. After all, the size of the city was too big. If they hadn't noticed that they were descending from the sky, no one would have thought that a city would suddenly appear above their heads!
Looking at the huge city, they couldn't help but worry that it would suddenly fall and smash everyone to death.
The captain grabbed the neck of a soldier on the ground and shouted, "Signaller! I'm ordering you to inform His Majesty Klein at the rear! The City of Silver has appeared! "
"Yes, yes!"
After the floating platform landed with the first group of combat teams, the teams immediately formed a combat formation. In each team of 50 people, the Ellington Elites were the core. Among the 10 Ellington Elites, one of them was a captain. He carried a spatial equipment with him, which contained the combat resources they needed.
After the team leader landed, he immediately released the equipment that he had prepared.
"Hurry, hurry, hurry! Don't worry about those idiots in the Solant Kingdom! The believers of Chaos have already smelled our scent! "
The roar of Hummer off-road vehicles and Harley motorcycles resounded across the plains. After they got on the vehicles, they immediately began to move and rushed to the target location.
According to the battle plan, the 100 teams would be evenly distributed around Lothamar Castle. They would weave an airtight net and gradually advance from the outside to the inside. Little by little, the space of movement of the believers of Chaos would be compressed and all of them would be forced to the center of the city. Then, they would finish them off in one fell swoop.
Tang En was the one who proposed this strategy of using the advantage of mobility to spread out and attack reinforcements. As soon as he proposed it, he was met with a strong protest. In the minds of these people, two armies facing each other and charging at each other was a real battle. This kind of scattered and scattered fighting style that completely prevented one's forces from concentrating at all was simply nonsense!
But when Tang En briefly explained the benefits of such a battle, those fellows were all speechless and could not say a word.
Thanks to Tang En's strong sponsorship, the mounts of the Knights Templar had also changed from warhorses to cheap and efficient Harley motorcycles. Compared to the warhorses that needed to be fed and trained, the Harley motorcycles that only needed to be regularly maintained and filled with magic crystals were obviously more favored by the knights.
The Harley-Davidson motorcycles gave them great mobility, which was much more powerful than before.
Apart from other things, in the whole Prandal, only the troops of the Irus Empire had such great mobility. This was their unique advantage. They would fight as soon as they came into contact and retreat as soon as the battle was over. Not only could they preserve their forces and prevent unnecessary casualties, but they could also harass the enemy and weaken their morale. Moreover, they could also reduce the number of casualties caused by the enemy's large-scale attacks. There were too many advantages.
What's more, in this battle, they were outnumbered, and the enemy was the crazy believers of Chaos. Therefore, they couldn't let their forces be too concentrated.
Squads landed from the City of Silver one after another, and a large number of combat equipment were quickly unfolded. Hummers, Harley motorcycles, and even Comet flying motorcycles that were used to scout the terrain of the battlefield were brought along. In addition, the Ellington elites each had an RPG launcher, and beside them were piles of special bullets loaded with various spells.
On the rear seat frame of the Hummer, a 15-millimeter high-speed machine gun was firmly mounted on an alloy steel frame. The machine gunner was already standing there, ready to fire. Next to him was a box of bullets. The bullets were fed into the machine gun through the bullet belt. Because the barrel of the gun was cooled by a frost array, the high-speed machine gun could fire continuously until all the bullets were used up.
In addition to the carrier-based machine gun, the Ellington elites also carried magic pistols, assault rifles, and powerful chainswords. The magic pistols were a powerful tactical weapon. The assault rifles, which were equipped with special bullets, were enough to make the believers of Chaos suffer, not to mention the chainswords, which were the most terrifying weapons against the creatures of Chaos.
However, this was only normal. What was even more insane was that after the last battle in the Rift Valley, Nokia received some inspiration from the mobile firepower platform of the tank. As a result, Nokia went one step further and improved the mobile missile launcher "Light Cavalry" to maximize the mobility of this thing. That's right, this time, the modification was a towed design!
At the back of the Hummer, there was a launcher that could fire 12 80 millimeter missiles in a row!
With sufficient ammunition supply, these guys could bombard Lothamar Castle from outside the Lothamar Castle. After killing most of the believers of Chaos, they could then enter the city to clean up.
But considering that Tang En would soon reclaim the Solant Kingdom and Lothamar Castle would be his, Tang En did not order a full-scale bombing to minimize the loss of property as much as possible. If he really wanted to destroy the castle, he could have done it with a grade-8 spell. Why would he let them do it?
Letting them participate in the war personally would allow them to gain more combat experience and become stronger in future wars.
Tang En, Jean, Angus, Aiguin, Elsa, Sasaglot and the others were standing at the edge of the City of Silver, looking down at the five thousand meters below. Teams of soldiers quickly spread out after landing and began to carry out the clean-up plan according to the predetermined plan.
"So, the Lothamar you were talking about is here …"
Sasaglot looked at the city below with an inexplicable look of emotion on his face. "I didn't expect that a new city could be built here …"
Tang En looked at him with a puzzled look. "What do you mean?"
"Nothing, it's all in the past."
Sasaglot smiled and changed the topic.
Jean smiled and said, "I think Klein certainly didn't expect us to act so quickly."
"No, you're wrong. I think he already knows."
Tang En narrowed his eyes and pointed down. "Among the soldiers who sealed off Lothamar Castle, there are already signallers who have retreated. I noticed that the signallers disappeared after entering the forest. If I'm not wrong, Klein should have already arrived there, and the Solant Kingdom's soldiers should be gathering here."
Tang En's guess was right. The soldiers of the Solant Kingdom were all stunned when they saw the Paladins suddenly take out strange things.
"Spatial equipment! They have spatial equipment! "
"God! What are those things!? Why are they running with them!? "
"The swords on their backs are so strange! Why are there so many sawteeth!? "
"They — God! They're rushing directly to Lothamar Castle — they're planning to kill their way in! "
The soldiers of the Solant Kingdom hid behind cover and observed the Paladins from afar. They were all stunned when they saw them sitting on strange vehicles and rushing directly to Lothamar Castle.
"Yebirni above! They're indeed the Paladins of the Radiant Church! They're not afraid of the corruption of the breath of Chaos! "
A devout believer of the Radiant Church recovered and said excitedly, "They'll definitely purify this city!"
"But no matter how strong they are, there are too few of them!"
"Maybe there will be more — Wait! Look! More people are landing! "
The devout believer excitedly pointed at the floating platform descending from the sky. More and more people were being sent down from Lothamar Castle and approaching the city from all directions.
"This time, the Radiant Church and the City of Silver have joined forces!?"
The soldiers of the Solant Kingdom were very surprised. The City of Silver, which had always been neutral, had put down its pride and joined forces with the Radiant Church just to purify Lothamar Castle. It was obvious how bad the situation here was.
A soldier suddenly exclaimed, "Not good! We locked the gate when we sealed the city! They can't get in! "
"They must have a way — What are they doing?"
The soldiers saw the Paladins suddenly squatting behind the vehicles from afar. One of them was standing there with a cylinder.
"That must be some kind of weapon, maybe it can break through —"
Before the soldier's voice trailed off, he saw a flame spurt out from the cylinder. Then, brilliant sparks suddenly exploded on the gate of Lothamar Castle. The deafening explosion and violent airflow swept in all directions. After the thick smoke and dust dispersed, the soldiers of the Solant Kingdom were stunned to find that a large hole had been blown open in the sturdy gate!
"What — What weapon is that!?"
A Solant Kingdom officer looked at the large hole in disbelief. Through the hole, he could even see a pile of blown up corpses!
Those were definitely the believers of Chaos who had just been blown up!
"The entrance is open! Let's go! "
