Chapter 108 Retreat

"What are you going to do?" Julian looked at Mu Lan in surprise.

"Don't you understand?" Mu Lan smiled and said, "You just stand here, and we'll take care of the rest."

Then Mu Lan commanded the battle mage and launched a second wave of magic attacks. Under the brilliant spell explosion, the second siege tower was also destroyed.

The crowd burst into cheers again. Shi Zhengyang had been encouraging for a long time, and his voice was a little hoarse. He looked around and found that his morale had obviously been boosted, indicating that the first step of their plan was about to be realized. The next step was to repel this wave of enemy offensive. .

More and more people were surrounding the rock-solid team. Willenberg's soldiers, who had been in retreat just now, were regrouped. The barbarians were surprised to see that the enemy who they thought was weak seemed to have been given a shot of chicken blood. This wave of vanguards who easily scaled the city wall were almost killed.

"Those mages are destroying our towers!" shouted a barbarian soldier.

"They must be killed, otherwise the subsequent troops will not be able to attack the city!"

"You can't get close at all!"

The barbarians also saw the huge threat posed by those battle mages. All the barbarian warriors who climbed up the city wall were attracted. Mu Lan led Julian to a high place, and below were densely packed soldiers pouring upward, both from their own side and from the enemy. .

All the remaining battle mages also arrived, and these thirty battle mages were as solid as a rock and almost changed the situation of the war.

But the barbarians couldn't enter the formation at all. The Willenburg soldiers surrounded the outside, fighting with them in high spirits. Throwing a short ax is a long-range attack, every time it will be resisted by the magic shield.

Although Mu Lan directed the mages to release magic collectively, she retained her spiritual power and never released any other spells. Thrall's shield was consumed, and she had to do her best to maintain this shield. This layer of protection was the only battle. The key to the overall combat of mages.

As the siege towers were dismantled one by one, the balance of victory seemed to have tipped. Although the soldiers of Willenberg were exhausted from the bloody battle, the magical attacks of the battle mages allowed them to see the light of day. His Royal Highness the Prince who stood at the top and The loud and high-pitched voice guided them in the direction.

"Don't back down! His Royal Highness is standing in front of you!"

"Our home is behind us, we cannot let the barbarians slaughter our relatives!"

"Hold this wall!"

Shi Zhengyang, the man with the loudspeaker tool, had shouted countless times. These uplifting or stimulating words were all thought up during group discussions before. Shen Wei, who is well versed in political education, came up with many ideas. A way to turn the tide of the battle. Your Highness, instill the belief in protecting the homeland and the country. The soldiers created in this way are true warriors, warriors with faith and conviction.

Of course, this is just the beginning, both for them and for the barbarians. Looking at the gradually decreasing number of barbarians on the city wall, Shi Zhengyang thought that this night attack was more of a test. In the distance of his sight, the barbarian army was like a sea of ​​fire. No bones or muscles were injured, the war had just begun.

"They're retreating!" Lin Yiyi said in surprise, pointing at a tower that was receding.

The barbarians who were still fighting on the city wall found in despair that their own army's offensive was over. The remaining towers retreated in the direction they came from, and the remaining soldiers under the city were also slowly retreating.

"We've repelled the barbarians!" The young sergeant Roy shouted, his eyes flushed with excitement, and he raised his long sword.

As the barbarian troops retreated, the remaining barbarians on the city wall were not afraid. Without follow-up troops, they were quickly surrounded and wiped out by Willenborg soldiers.

"Huh" Lin Yiyi took a deep breath, sat on the ground and rubbed her hands, and continued to shoot arrows with a bow. Even the physique of the God Chosen couldn't bear it. She gasped and said, "Then we have won!" gone?"

Shi Zhengyang shook his head, "The war has just begun. This is just the first attack by the barbarian army. There are more elements of probing. Maybe they want to find out the bottom of Willenburg. The barbarian priests are existences that can control monsters. During this siege, I didn’t see them appear, and the enemy’s reincarnation team didn’t show up either.”

"We still have to fight." Lin Yiyi sighed, her arms hurt as if they were torn apart, and the tiger's mouth almost burst. If the enemy didn't retreat just now, she wouldn't be able to hold on.

"Let Xiao Zhao help you treat it." Shi Zhengyang saw Lin Yiyi's red hands and looked at Zhao Ziyu.

Seeing Zhao Ziyu skillfully taking out the golden needle, Lin Yiyi showed an ugly smile and slowly backed away, her voice becoming stammering: "I, I'm afraid of injections, so I'd better skip it."

"what!"

Accompanied by Lin Yiyi's screams, Zhao Ziyu's golden needle had been inserted into the acupuncture point on her arm.

"That's a lot of potential!" Zhao Ziyu curled his lips.

Julian looked at the barbarian soldiers receding in the distance, his eyes were dim, and he didn't know what he was thinking. At this time, Sergeant Roy squeezed in from the crowd. He smiled when he saw that His Royal Highness was safe and sound, and then respectfully knelt down on one knee .

"Your Highness, you're fine."

Mu Lan and Julian turned around when they heard the words, and when Roy saw the two looking at him, his face flushed a little, and he lowered his head even lower.

This second-class sergeant is quite good at being a man. He knows how to circle around the future leader and get acquainted with him first. I don't know whether it is clever or unintentional. When Shi Zhengyang was shouting to build momentum just now, this sergeant helped cooperate.

Mu Lan looked at Julian jokingly, but he kept a straight face, glanced at the soldiers who were looking at him, straightened their backs, and gave a solemn military salute.

This kind of military salute of beating his chest with his right hand was created by Emperor Claudius. It is said that it was to boost morale, and it also showed the concept of equality between superiors and subordinates in the army. Mu Lan was surprised when she heard the meaning of this military salute for the first time. It's quite strange that this kind of modern concept appeared in a magical world out of thin air, but after thinking about it, it might have been brought by people with modern thinking like the previous reincarnation team.

During the military salute, the soldiers did not have to kneel down on one knee, because they were not facing nobles but officers, the superiors to whom they gave their lives. Most of the remaining soldiers on the city wall were decorated, and they stood up with their tired bodies, but Their eyes were shining, because since Emperor Claudius, no royal nobles had ever been to the battlefield in person. This prince who lived and died with them was worthy of respect, so they all beat their chests with their right fists and responded with the same military salute. .

"You make me proud!" Julian's voice was not loud, but every soldier present could hear it.

"In the days to come, I will fight on the front line and be with you!"

Mu Lan didn't expect that Julian suddenly became enlightened. He had never been taught such words, so she looked at him subconsciously.

His face was serious, and there was a faint military atmosphere from a bloody battle. Surrounded by the soldiers' reverent eyes, the current Julian made Mu Lan feel strange.
