Chapter 6 The Battle Begins
Two days passed quickly, and Alice also received news that tonight, King Kyle followed Prince Logan's plan and used part of his troops to face the enemy, while the other part was ambushed. Using the lighthouse lights as a signal, the ambushed troops emerged from the flanks, striving to wipe out or severely damage the Black Spirit to achieve a great victory. Duncan handed over the task of lighting the lighthouse to Alice and Alice.
The sky gradually darkened, but the weather became wetter. Alice stood on the bridge and watched the troops under the bridge gather in an orderly manner. After a while, Prince Logan and General Tashinya led some of the troops to leave the Dawn Light Fortress and ambush the valley to the west of the fortress. The remaining troops, led by King Kyle, lined up in front of the city gate and carried out combat preparations.
More than a dozen scouts risked their lives to enter the deep forest to inquire about the news about the black spirit. Several sentries calculated the distance data on the tower. The second brother led a team of soldiers to lay traps in front of the position, and the observers of the catapult cart were using instruments to calculate the attack distance. The mages of the mage association meditated hard behind the high wall, hoping to recover some mana, and fortunately they would have greater damage in the subsequent battles. Some minor wounded spontaneously helped the archers on the bridge and on the city walls to transport arrows, while several priests shuttled through the camp to bless the soldiers.
The sun seemed unwilling to see blood, and it sank to the ground, while the moon did not want to see the killing, so it hid behind the clouds. A lightning flashed from the sky, and a heavy rain came. The sentry on the watchtower shouted loudly: "The scouts are back!" Only four of the dozen scouts who had gone to scout the enemy before, and they were covered in blood. One of them quickly ran to King Kyle, saluted and said, "Report, I found that the enemy was gathering in the north, and the number of people was measured to be at least 6,000, and they were moving towards us." King Kyle patted the scouts on the shoulder and said, "Thank you for your hard work, go down and have a good rest." Then he went to the podium with Duncan and looked north.
After a while, the sentry shouted again: "They are here!" Sure enough, countless black spirits stood on the edge of the forest, shouting loudly at the human army. After King Kyle saw this, he ordered: "The whole army is ready to fight!" "Oh ha!" The whole army said with great cheer. The black spirit also began to advance the entire army.
"The enemy began to advance, with a distance of 4,000 meters!" The sentry reported the enemy's data
King Kyle calmly ordered "Master, strategic magic." Behind the city wall, several mages stood in a magic circle and whispered: "Great God of Fire, once again, we pray deeply like you, asking you to show your strength and help us fight the enemy, meteor shower." At the moment the spell was finished, the sky was replaced by red, and dozens of fireballs were smashed towards the black spirit, and the black spirit continued to move forward against the fire rain in the sky.
The sentry shouted at the enemy's position again: "3500 meters!"
After hearing the direction reported by the sentry, King Kyle issued another order: "Prepare the catapult." The winch of the ten catapults moved to the extreme with the efforts of the soldiers. After the squadron leader saw that they were ready, he replied to King Kyle loudly: "Prepare." "Flash, and then shoot freely." "Yes, launch." With a bang, ten lit stones flew towards the enemy, and no one fell to the ground, all of which took away hundreds of black spirits. Such a counterattack by humans seemed to arouse the black spirit's bloodthirsty urge, ignoring the fireballs and flints that they flew in, and continued to charge towards the human positions.
The sentry once again reported the position: "Enemy, 2000 meters."
King Kyle ordered to the archers on the bridge and on the city wall: "Change arrows ready!" The archers immediately divided into three rows, the first row immediately pulled the bows and arrows, the second row and the third row were ready to go. "Shoot the arrow!" With a buzzing sound, the rain of arrows flew towards the enemy. The black spirits did not react and were hit by arrows and fell to the ground. The remaining ones raised their shields in their hands to continue moving forward. "Second row, prepare, release", "Third row, prepare, release", "First row, prepare, release" and "First row, prepare, release" and such commands were repeated continuously. The arrows fell one after another like rain, and the black spirits fell down. The empty position was soon filled by other black spirits. The entire black spirit army still attacked madly towards the human positions like a tide.
"The enemy is 1,000 meters and enters the trap area." The sentry was still loyal to his mission in the rain. The tide-like charge of the Black Spirit stopped its speed of progress in shock. The trap dug before was like a bottomless pit, devouring the black spirit, but the black spirit kept rushing forward, ignoring the existence of the trap. Soon, the trap was filled with the black spirit's corpse, and the black tide continued to advance towards humans.
"The enemy broke through the trap area, with a distance of 500 meters." King Kyle immediately issued an order after hearing this: "Range the array, prevent the impact formation! Archers, shoot freely." After the troops received the order, the soldiers holding the tower shield immediately ran to the front row and inserted the shield into the ground, forming a steel Great Wall. The soldiers behind them stood up the super-long spear in their hands and pointed at the enemy. On the steel Great Wall, a dead gun array was added. "200 meters, about to contact. "After listening, King Kyle pulled out his love sword,
, shouted loudly, "For the Tulip Empire!" "Huha!" Then, the black trend crashed into the Great Wall of Steel of Humanity. With a few sounds, humans and the Black Spirit once again started a war. The Black Spirit hit the human defense line. The Black Spirit who had not pushed the spear was directly penetrated into a skewer by the spear. The Black Spirit who pushed the spear hit the weapon and cut it on the tower shield. Unexpectedly, the Tower Shield slightly opened a gap, and a sword stretched out from it, and took away the life of the Black Spirit who had finally stood in front of the tower shield, and repeated this.
King Kyle, seeing that the time was almost over, said to Duncan, "Let your people go and light the beacon." Duncan nodded, picked up two torches and waved them across the bridge. After seeing this, Alice picked up one torch and waved it up and down, and then said to Alice, "Let's go."
