Above the Seven Towers

In a world of grudge and magic, carrying two cannons to the top of a twenty-story high wall has become a lot simpler, and even without the help of Xiao Chen ’s people, Count Olgas directly transferred a low team Tier soldiers, carrying the gun mount in groups of four, carried the cannon to the wall.

The Imperial Outpost Camp was only about two kilometers away from Kuroki Pass. The camp was above a hillside and looked like a town covered with slopes. The center was a large-scale castle.

Olgas looked at the Empire's camp with Xiao Chen behind the battlements at the top of the wall. He said: "Kuroki Pass is one of the best on the continent. Now people do not have the ability to build such a high level. It is said that this level was built by the masters of the Forging Tower in the Seven Towers era to resist the attack of the Temple of Nature. . I do n’t know what method those mages used to make the stone so high. Some people say that the core in this level is made of mitral silver alloy. This is of course a fool ’s imagination. How can mitral silver be so precious? Do this, but they must have used magic we don't know.

At that time no one knew the victory and defeat of the Seven Pagoda Masters here, but this pass has remained, and it has always been a barrier separating the north and south of the mainland. In the eastern part of Heishan, whoever occupies this level will have the initiative in the war.

More than two hundred years ago, this level had been in the hands of the Purple Eagle Empire. At that time, the mad warrior Merlot had a whole army of mad warriors before he grabbed the level from the Empire. If there was no battle of the year, the future war history of the kingdom and the empire would all have to be rewritten. "

Although Xiao Chen has read many historical documents, he has never heard of these details. Now the master of Heimuguan gave him one by one, and a heavy sense of history came to him, and he asked: "So since Merlot won the blackwood, it has never been broken?"

"Of course, this has always been the case. So as long as the kingdom can provide us with sufficient support, it is impossible for the Empire to fight in. But since the death of the prince, Queen Laura has no control over many powerful lords. Even if those people do not rebel, If I want to support myself, who will add me soldiers here? If I had not recruited new recruits in the surrounding villages and towns, I would not be able to maintain this number now. Fortunately, several lords around me knew that if Kuroki had lost their guard Fucked up, so we also served with Bardini to eat and drink, otherwise we would have been hungry and separated. "

Earl Olgas stretched out his hand and pointed at the hilltop: "In the last war, the Imperials played very lively at the guide fort on the Eastern Front. They could often reach the border of the kingdom, but they played very hard here. It is up to us to decide whether to fight or not. They feel that they are too passive, so they also built an outpost camp here.

It turned out that the tattered goods surrounded by a wooden fence were burned twice by our cavalry, and they sent a large army to build a castle. After the truce, they used this opportunity to expand the castle again. A wall was also circled outside the surrounding town. Now more than a thousand people are stationed in the castle and the nearby town.

However, there was a large camp just in the front depression, where the main force of the Empire gathered. But I can't see it from here. According to the information that we scouted yesterday, the strength of the opposing party has already exceeded 30,000. "

Xiao Chen said: "Then we will start from that camp."

"Okay." Olgas stepped back to give the space to the artillery brought by Xiao Chen.

The artillery pushed the pneumatic guns to the appropriate stacking holes, roughly aiming at the Empire's camp. Then start to calculate and adjust the shooting parameters of the pneumatic gun.

Olgas watched the artillery extend their right arms and raised a thumbs up to the target fortress in the distance. They could not help wondering, "What are they doing?"

"They are measuring the distance from the camp to the other side. This is called the squinting method." He looked at Olgas still curiously and said, "If you join our army, there will naturally be relevant training. I am not an artillery , It's hard to explain the principle. "

Since there is no easy-to-use rangefinder yet, in fact, the artillery battalion usually uses the eye of the mage to measure distance. However, Xiao Chen and Huang Zheng did not want to expose these methods, so they let the artillery adopt the method of visually measuring the distance.

While the artillery was busy, Xiao Chen asked: "Is there a shield and defensive boundary in that camp?"

Olgas laughed and said: "How is it possible. In addition to the real big cities and rich castles, how can a general fortress match that."

"In this case, let's directly fire elemental bombs." Huang Zheng said.

After the artillerymen finished their preparations, the two pneumatic guns began to fire at the same time. One shell missed the target by about 50 meters. Another shell fell in a town that fell beside the fortress and directly lifted off the roof of a house, causing the whole house to burn.

When the other door was slightly adjusted and the second test fired, both shells landed in the town and two huge sparks burst. Xiao Chen glanced at Olgas. Although Lord Earl tried his best to keep calm, his wide eyes and slightly opened lips betrayed the shock in his heart.

Huang Zheng nodded to Xiao Chen. Xiao Chen asked: "Your Excellency Olgas, the test firing has been completed. In order to achieve the best results, we have to start a formal attack as soon as possible."

"Of course, of course." Olgas said to a soldier around him: "Go, go and bring the chiefs of each army to the city, let them all come to see the means of seeing the Tower of China."

There were originally a dozen people who accompanied Xiao Chen, and after a while, they ran up to more than twenty people one after another. There are warriors and mages, and the most important generals under Olgas are already here.

A few people who hurried to see the town shrouded in flames and smoke, exclaimed.

At this time, both pneumatic guns began to fire effectively. Although the firing frequency of both guns is not high. The operations of the artillerymen were very step-by-step, but it was this unhurried attitude that formed a huge contrast with the miserable scene of the flames rising across the building and the explosion of buildings.

It is as if the Chinese could destroy a town without any effort. This made the audience, including Olgas, look terrified.

As the surrounding town fell into flames, both runners focused their attack on the castle in the center. Although the castle is made of stone, the fire elemental shells can burn for a certain period of time without fuel. Under their intensive attack, the castle quickly became a burning beacon.
