Chapter 1456 1443. The Eve of the Great War
When Suldak led the ant cavalry to catch up, Andrew's Constructed Knights had already been in a stalemate with the evil ghost army on the hillside for most of the day.
The high hill was crowded with constructed knights, and from time to time there would be a horse neighing.
This group of war horses were covered with shiny black armor, and even the heads of the horses were tightly wrapped by iron helmets, only the eyes and nostrils were exposed.
This group of costumed knights looked at the densely packed ghost warriors opposite Gao Gang with serious expressions, and no smile could be seen on any of their faces.
The magic-weave structures on their bodies have already started to work, and the magic-weave lines with faint light show exquisite patterns on the magic-weave structures.
A row of giant ghost-striped soldier ants stood in the front row of the army formation, and they showed their ferocious fangs. All the ghost-striped soldier ants became very restless, confronting the more than ten thousand ghost warriors in front, but they could not see the slightest fear.
Along with Suldak came the mercenary regiment from Handanar City. They had originally gone to the battlefield to pick up trash, so naturally they would not go to the front.
The targets of these mercenary regiments are only some ghost fighters who are alone on the battlefield, preferably the ones with injuries.
But this time when they climbed the hill and saw tens of thousands of ghost warriors gathered on the opposite side, many mercenary groups immediately retreated.
...
This time, the number of evil spirits corps crushed the West Route Army, which was one of the reasons why Andrew could calm down.
There was another reason that made Andrew dare not act rashly. He detected four ghost generals hiding in the opposite camp of the ghost army.
It was relatively easy for Andrew, Gulitum, and Tago to deal with an evil ghost general with the cooperation of ghost pattern soldiers.
But four ghost generals suddenly appeared on the opposite side. Even if there were druids controlling giant soldier ants to help, the three of them would not be able to defeat these four ghost generals.
The evil ghost army is still gathering here.
Along the way, Andrew has recruited six Constructed Knights from the Eastern Route Army, and the leader of each Constructed Knights is a second-rank expert.
As the evil ghost army continued to gather, some East Route Army Constructed Knights also silently joined the West Route Army's camp.
When Suldak rushed over, eleven second-rank powerhouses had already gathered here, but Andrew still didn't want to give the order to attack.
In fact, Andrew was still a little apprehensive when he saw the ghost generals on the opposite side.
This group of second-rank powerhouses on our side are almost all the heads of the Knights of various structures. There is nothing to say in terms of strength, but they are not Andrew's companions, so Andrew hesitated, not wanting to hand over his back to these second-rankers. For the strong, in a word, the two sides have not yet established enough trust.
The vanguard of the evil spirits is constantly gathering, and some evil spirit warriors can still be seen running in the wilderness.
Suldak frowned tightly, such a scene was the last thing he wanted to see.
The more and more evil spirits there are, the more difficult the battle will be.
Suldak and Andrew got together and discussed how to fight the war in a low voice. Because Andrew rushed forward too fast, the West Route Army was now unable to retreat.
Just when Suldak was at a loss what to do, the magician Basil ran in front of Suldak through the crowd of constructed knights.
"Commander Suldak, I have an idea... In fact, we can replicate the Battle of Moyun Ridge and organize a mage combat group to throw powder kegs at these evil spirits."
Suldak didn't consider the inventory of gunpowder barrels. There were a lot of them in the warehouse in Hailansa City.
He frowned and asked:
"Where did you gather so many magicians at this time?"
"I just temporarily recruited from the mercenary group on the opposite side. I saw that there are some magicians in these mercenary groups, so I want to try to contact them." Magician Basil said.
Suldak and Andrew looked at each other.
Even if these mages form a mage bombing group, once they throw gunpowder kegs towards the camp of the evil spirits on the opposite side, the evil spirits on the opposite side will definitely not sit still, they will rush up all at once.
Even if this battle has officially begun...
Suldak also thought of summoning the red dragon Iser, but under his deduction, this war will still be very difficult.
...
Two hours later, the magician Basil and a group of magicians waited outside Suldak's tent.
The magical robes worn by this group of magicians were various, and Basil had obviously found them from the mercenary group temporarily.
I heard that the commander of the West Route Army needs some magicians to join the battle. Some magicians were hesitant at first, but I heard that it is just a matter of throwing powder kegs from a high altitude without thinking. As long as you have a magic handle, this matter is very simple.
These magicians came to the front of the army formation, and everyone looked at Suldak expectantly.
The magician Basil looked at Suldak with a smug look on his face, as if to say: I have already brought it for you, the next step is to arrange how to fight.
Suldak nodded slightly, pondered for a moment before telling the magicians the specific battle plan.
These magicians have never done such a thing. I heard from Suldak that they should empty their magic pockets and fill their magic pockets with explosives. It's kind of magical to ignite and throw these barrels of dynamite over your head.
Many of these magicians were fire magicians, and they even suggested to Suldak that they could fly high into the sky and throw third-level fire magic balls at the evil spirit camp.
But Suldak asked: "How many fireballs can your magic pool support you to release?"
The magician immediately blushed and closed his mouth.
Now that the magicians have decided to throw gunpowder barrels at the evil ghost army to disrupt the formation of the evil ghost army, Suldak took out some oak powder barrels and distributed them to the magicians who were full of novelty.
Basil took the initiative to explain to these magicians how to use the powder keg. The most notable thing is the throwing height of the powder keg. However, because Basil took them with them, these magicians only need to follow Basil. That's it.
This group of magicians almost all listened to Basil's explanation with a serious face.
The evil ghost army on the opposite side probably has assembled enough evil ghost soldiers, and the evil ghosts at the front of the army have stood up one after another at this time, showing their weapons towards this side.
The evil ghost army put on an attack posture, and the magician Basil hurriedly stepped on the magic handle and shouted: "Follow me...don't fly too low, those evil ghost warriors have short flying spears in their hands , they can throw their spears high..."
After speaking, Basil poured mana into the handle of the magic yam, and as the floating magic circle on the handle of the yam lit up magic gleams, the magician Basil flew high into the sky.
Uh, I have a cold, that's all for today, sorry sorry
