Chapter 778 Changes in the nature of war!
It is located on the coastal area about 300 kilometers west of the Tristine Kingdom.
The sound of roars and killing was filled with the sky, and the continuous sound of artillery fire and magic bombings came one after another.
Looking down from above.
You can see two huge and powerful magical armies fighting fiercely on the vast earth and the vast sky with a vast ocean as the background.
However, the fighting styles of the two sides are quite different.
Most of the soldiers in the south were heavily armored and sword-carriedly charged.
In the north army, a light armored soldier was holding a strangely shaped long-handled musket in his hand, and continued to fire and shoot out with the help of a wall made by earth magic.
On the left and right sides of their side, there were shield soldiers holding their shields over their heads to block the missing arrows shot from the sky for them.
Behind is a magician holding a long staff, ready to defend against the magical fireballs or shells that are attacking.
Then, there are cannon arrays with as many as two hundred.
With the deafening sound of artillery fire, surging flames continued to gush out, tilting the barrage of the sky towards the enemy troops that were attacking on a large scale.
Whenever the shells land, smoke will roll and flesh will splatter.
On the overall scene.
If you ignore the magic warships and dragon knights in the sky.
It was not like two armies in the magic world fighting, but like the cold weapon army in the ancient times and the hot weapon army in the "World War I" period.
The magic element has become a supporting role on the battlefield.
This is the main battlefield for the battle between Gallia and Albion, the two major powers!
The former is what is called the "cold weapon army", while the latter is the "hot weapon army", but this does not mean that the former has no thermal weapons.
In fact, they also have cannons, but the number is estimated to be only forty or fifty. Compared with the 200 sects on Albion, it can only be said that there are very few.
However, the number of artillery artillery in the Kingdom of Galia is normal in this world.
After all, this thing is very bulky and requires the supply of shells. Its power is only comparable to the "Ball of Flame", so overall it is not as good as a "Line-level (line)" magician.
But artillery does not require mental power, nor does it have a process of chanting spells, so each kingdom will prepare some as aid to magicians.
This is also what surprised the senior generals on the Gallia side.
The Kingdom of Albion actually made so many artillery, and the number of magic warships on the opponent was beyond the norm.
But the most shocking, even terrifying place.
Of course, the long-handled muskets equipped by the opponent's soldiers are largely equipped. The firing distance, shooting speed, shooting accuracy, and shooting power of those muskets are far beyond the muskets they know.
Although our infantry legion is brave and fearless.
But under the rain of bullets that were rushing to the face, they kept falling down in rows and died meaninglessly on the way to charge.
This made the generals feel nervous.
It was not that I pity the civilian soldiers who died, but that I saw the huge threat of this long-handled musket to these magicians.
If this kind of muskets spread.
Then the civilians can form an army head-on to fight against the magicians.
"They must die! The Kingdom of Albion must be destroyed!"
Although Marshal Aiweigni of the Kingdom of Galia had a little gray hair, his firm face and fear and disgust for muskets made him look very terrible.
This is a scheming defender of the aristocratic class.
"Yes, the King of Wales cannot be unclear about the consequences of these muskets, but he still made them, and in large quantities, which was a betrayal of the nobles!"
"Kill him! Destroy all the muskets and design drawings, and the craftsmen involved in the manufacturing will die!"
Generals of all sizes around them also looked shocked and angry.
The previous war was because the marriage between Wales and Anlietta violated the rules of the nobles.
So even if the Kingdom of Albion and Trist were defeated in the Kingdom in the end, they would not hurt their lives, at most they would force them to separate.
But now the nature of war has changed.
He turned completely to the battle to protect his own class, and the cruelty of class struggle was extraordinary.
This has heated up the battle situation rapidly.
The offensive of Gallia became strong at a speed visible to the naked eye, and many generals who mastered superb swordsmanship and magic also began to ride flying dragons in person.
In addition to the common fire dragons, these flying dragons also have green wind dragons and light blue water dragons.
Moreover, not only are they physically stronger than the dragons of the Dragon Knights, but they are also covered with steel-made one-piece armor.
This is the foundation of the great nobles!
really.
Their participation in the war brought some suppression to Albion's magic fleet.
As mentioned before, because the Kingdom of Albion lost most of the Dragon Knights, the main combat forces in the air were concentrated on the magic warships.
In addition to being able to fly at high altitude, the combat capabilities of the magic warship are also ten artillery on both sides of the hull and magicians and musketeers on the deck.
The cannons are responsible for bombing the ground, while the muskets are responsible for preventing the dragon knights from approaching, while the magicians take into account both.
This configuration did cause great trouble to the Dragon Knight Legion on the Gallia side.
Because they don't have much thick armor on them, it is difficult to defend against bullet attacks.
However, compared with the Dragon Knight who is good at fire attributes, the Dragon Knight who is good at water and wind are slightly better.
They can put themselves in a layer of water or wind hood.
Just doing this will also make them lose the ability to release attack magic. After all, this is not an online game world. There is no setting for their own attack magic to pass through the defense magic.
Unless their magic reaches the level of releasing attack magic in the outer space of the defensive magic.
But even a magician at the level of ‘Liriangle/Triangle’ can’t do such things. Maybe a level of ‘Square/Four-corner’ can?
Anyway, not many people have seen a magician at the ‘Square/Four Corner’ level.
And these generals from great nobles covered the fine steel armor of humans and dragons, and ordinary muskets and bullets hit them, sparked when they hit them.
In addition, everyone is a magician at the level of "Tiangle/Triangle", and can completely suppress those magicians at the level of "Line/Line" on the deck.
This allows them to easily destroy one magic warship after another.
The method is very simple.
As long as you use great power magic to penetrate the hull where the "Wind Stone" is located, the magic warship will naturally fall down if it loses its energy core.
However, the overall advantage of the war is still on Albion's side.
Because the heroic soldiers of the Kingdom of Galia could not break through the firepower net composed of a large number of muskets, the rain of bullets that hit their faces could easily penetrate their armor and shields.
For a moment, screamed in the dense gunfire.
The vast plains were already full of corpses, and the earth was gradually dyed with a layer of blood red.
Marshal Avigni was angry about this situation but had no choice but to do anything.
Until he received the order to suspend the offensive, he saw five giants brought by the other party in person.
"Let's get everyone back, next is the performance time of these 'Yulmgaunt's ~"
The charming Sheffield stood on the shoulder of a "steel giant" in the center, looking down at Marshal Evigney with a cold face and gave the order.
"Yulmgaunt?!"
Everyone around was shocked to look at the five steel giants who were estimated to be more than twenty meters tall and holding a pitch-black sword.
