"Prepare for battle!" Facing an enemy several times his size, the captain of the Delman Empire's Blackstone Fort Expeditionary Army wasn't intimidated at all. Instead, he was filled with anticipation for victory.
His soldiers had already formed three lines in front of the countless enemy soldiers. They did not retreat, nor did they show any signs of panic. They just checked the weapons in their hands and prepared to give the enemy a big gift later.
"The enemy is approaching! Prepare for battle! " The captain commanded the battle. He wanted to prove himself and win the victory in front of him.
All the soldiers raised their weapons in front of the sea of people. They calmly picked up the weapons in their hands and waited for the enemy to approach before charging fiercely.
When the enemy was about 300 Demeter away, the crossbowmen in his camp fired arrows from the city wall at the Northland soldiers who wanted to go to the south gate to attack the city. Dozens of soldiers from the Kingdom of Northland on the opposite side fell in an instant. The other party was actually able to shoot arrows from such a long distance and knock down his own soldiers.
The Norland Kingdom's attacks became sharper and sharper. More and more of the Norland Kingdom's soldiers fell on the way.
"Press on! Let the cavalry at the back press on! Press on! "King Gravel loudly gave the order to continue the attack.
Under his command, more soldiers from the Kingdom of Northland began to rush towards the gap in the south of the city. The continuous sound of the bugle horn represented the determination of the Kingdom of Northland.
"I suggest that we attack immediately and let the airships destroy this army. They are still here, so there must be reinforcements behind them … If we let them meet up, it may be more troublesome. "Horf suggested to Gravel.
"You are right!" Gravel nodded and agreed with his opinion. "Go! Bring victory back to me! Let the airships move out! Be careful, don't mess up. "
"You guys are too weak!" The captain of the German Empire's Blackstone Fort Expeditionary Army muttered as he led the heavy cavalry to charge towards the brave Northland soldiers. The Northland soldiers beat their war drums loudly, but their troops were still far from the south gate.
Then, in the next second, on the opposite slope, behind the distant hills, a huge shadow suddenly rose into the air. All the soldiers of the Empire's Expeditionary Army widened their eyes as they watched the shadow soar into the sky.
Another black shadow rose into the air from the reverse slope. Then a third and a fourth shadow rose. These shadows were about a few thousand Demeter away, so the Derman's soldiers could easily see them hovering in the sky.
"It's the airships!" One of the soldiers shouted in a trembling voice. He could feel his legs and stomach trembling. Even his hands that were holding onto his weapon were trembling uncontrollably.
"Continue to fight!" The captain of the cavalry was the first to regain his senses. He drew his sword from his waist and cheered for his subordinates loudly, "Long live the German Empire! Long live Lord Tyron! "
"Victory for the German Empire!" All the soldiers began to attack the soldiers of the Kingdom of Northland who were charging towards them like a tidal wave.
However, an airship in the sky rushed down from the clouds and threw cans of kerosene at the soldiers of the German Empire. The crossbowmen on the city walls and towers were ready to fight to the death.
First, it was black hot oil. Then, it was fire. This ball of fire continued to fall like a falling meteorite towards the Derman soldiers in the city.
The Derman crossbowmen who saw the flames above their heads closed their eyes in despair and pulled the trigger of their crossbows. Because of the sunlight and the fireballs, they could not see their targets. They could only fire hastily.
In the next second, the ball of fire smashed into the crowd. Hundreds of German Empire soldiers screamed in agony as they struggled in the sea of fire. Then, they were turned into charcoal and collapsed in the flames.
"Help!" After all, the soldiers of the German Empire were made of flesh and blood. They had relied on advanced weapons to achieve their success. In terms of courage and perseverance, they were not much better than the soldiers of the Kingdom of Northland.
Therefore, when the real test of blood and fire arrived, the soldiers of the German Empire collapsed. They saw their comrades turn into ashes and charcoal. They were burned by the flames and twisted until they died. They were terrified.
The flames swept across the ground, causing the soil to harden and heat up. An airship flew over at a low altitude. It seemed that all living things would be turned into charcoal. In the face of these powerful and mysterious ancient technologies, humans were insignificant and helpless from the beginning to the end.
The few remaining soldiers of the German Empire were still holding their weapons in despair. They had already struggled out of the initial chaos and despair because they had seen too much death.
They kept waving their weapons around aimlessly, as if this was the only way to vent the fear in their hearts. The soldiers of the Kingdom of Northland who were getting closer and closer to them stopped because there were flames rising in front of them.
"The enemy is right above us! All soldiers, prepare for battle! " The officer of the German Empire who was commanding the magic crystal cannons held the longsword at his waist and ordered his subordinates. Following his orders, the soldiers in charge of firing the magic crystal cannons began to adjust the magic crystal cannons so that they could aim at the airships that were moving slowly. The cannons were raised bit by bit, and the cold barrels were pointed at the airships flying in the sky.
"Let's hope that our magic crystal cannons can really destroy those damn airships!" The commander of the magic crystal cannons of the German Empire stood at the commanding point of the tower on the city wall and held his longsword nervously. He looked at the airships of the Kingdom of Northland that were wreaking havoc in the sky.
An airship dropped a can of kerosene from the sky and bombarded the magic crystal cannons of the German Empire on the city wall. In an instant, this section of the city wall was engulfed in flames, and the soldiers on it were also drowned in a sea of fire.
"Boom!" The remaining magic crystal cannons of the German Empire also opened fire. A huge cannonball flew into the sky and shattered the armor of one of the airships. It then drilled into the interior of the airship. The cannonball's momentum did not diminish, and it penetrated the entire airship.
The entire airship lost its balance and fell from the sky, smashing into the city wall that was still burning with flames.
