Idle game leads to another world

It is difficult to explain intuition, especially for an old general like the Tiger of the Kingdom who has been in the military for half his life. His intuition on the battlefield is likely to be terrifyingly accurate.

It is obviously not a coincidence that both sides acted at the same time.

Although the port of Leon Territory is small, it can also dock ships. Princess Viola is likely to have contacted Qihang City, and the two sides agreed on a time to act together.

It must be said that they chose the right time. The army of the Subia Demon Kingdom is not adapted to the climate of the north, and the supplies are not in place, so it is in the weakest state of shrinking and not moving.

The Tiger of the Kingdom guessed that Viola's months of dormancy may be for today.

But then again, although the army of the Subia Demon Kingdom is indeed in the weakest state, and although both sides act at the same time, which is equivalent to attacking from both sides, in terms of combat effectiveness, the Subia Demon Kingdom still has an absolute advantage.

The army of Qihang City is not good at field battles, and the number is at most 20,000 to 30,000, and this is the number including the city management.

And Viola's side is even less, and the scouts reported that there are only 400 to 500 cavalry.

Even if the entire army of this number of people attacked, it would be a bit of a futile attempt to play a two-sided attack against the army of the Subia Demon Kingdom, which consisted of 120,000 soldiers.

However, the Tiger of the Kingdom did not think that Viola was a fool. The princesses of other Demon Kingdoms were all delicate and dignified ladies, while Princess Viola was a princess in military uniform in the literal sense. She could lead two thousand remnants through the encirclement of the four-nation coalition forces and run to the Leon territory. This was definitely not simply explained by good luck.

Since they dared to come, they must have a certain degree of confidence. Now is the time to counter their moves.

After thinking for a moment, the Tiger of the Kingdom ordered:

"Let the third, fifth, and sixth corps go forward to block the troops of Qihang City. Isaac, you go to supervise."

Perhaps because he wanted to train his grandson, the Tiger of the Kingdom asked Isaac to stop the army of Qihang City.

Isaac was obviously very happy to be entrusted with an important task at a young age. Although he wanted to fight Viola again, compared with being able to lead three corps, this idea was not worth mentioning at all.

After Isaac happily left the tent, the Tiger of the Kingdom said to the staff:

"Keep a close watch on Princess Viola. I think the army of Sailing City is a feint, and the princess is the main force."

"But Princess Viola only has four or five hundred cavalry, which is not enough to threaten our army..."

"It's not that simple."

The Tiger of the Kingdom shook his head. Somehow, he suddenly remembered the sky full of lightning that he saw across the World Spine Mountains a few months ago.

That terrifying power has not been explained in any reliable way so far. Princess Viola dared to lead a few hundred cavalry to charge directly at the 120,000 troops, which may be related to this.

So, assuming that Viola is the main force, what is her goal?

Food?

Supplies?

Or...

The Tiger of the Kingdom pressed his temple and touched the hilt of the sword at his waist.

He realized that Princess Viola's target might be the Tiger of the Kingdom himself.

At the same time, outside the military camp of the Subia Demon Kingdom

The cold wind blew across my cheeks with scattered snowflakes, and the feeling I brought was not cold, but pain.

Patrolling on such a night is a tough job, but the army is about enforcing orders. Not to mention the cold wind, even if it was raining knives from the sky, they had to go out on patrol if they received a military order.

From a distance, they could see the dazzling fire coming from the direction of Qihang City. The patrolmen knew at a glance that it was the soldiers of Qihang City who launched an attack at night.

This kind of thing has happened before. Even the patrolmen knew that Qihang City was short of soldiers and had already done their best to defend. The offensive would soon be repelled.

Besides, if the situation was really critical, a messenger would soon come to inform them, so the patrol team only stopped and watched for a while, and then continued to move forward along the planned route.

About ten minutes later, the wind became more and more fierce, and the snowflakes seemed to be getting bigger and bigger. Large flakes of goose feather snow mixed with fine snow powder fell from the sky, making it difficult to tell whether it was really snowing or blowing down from the World Spine Mountains.

The members of the patrol team took out the flat wine flasks from their arms, intending to use strong liquor to drive away the cold.

At this time, they heard a muffled sound of bangs, which was mixed in the cold wind. It was not loud, but it could be easily distinguished.

Several people looked up and looked around in confusion, but could not find the source of the sound.

"Is it that the rocks on the mountain fell down?"

"Impossible, the sound of rocks falling down is not like this."

It sounded like a muffled sound, and it sounded far away.

At this time, three more muffled sounds of bangs came, and the soldiers distinguished this time that the sound came from the World Spine Mountains on their right.

They also immediately realized that this sound was obviously caused by human factors. Although they didn't know why, they had to report the matter.

At this time, the soldiers found that something with sparks in the sky was slowly falling. Because the fire was very conspicuous in the dark night, it could be seen even with the wind and snow blocking it.

Then there was a loud bang, something exploded, and a large number of colorful sparks were blasted out, some of which ignited the tent covered with thick fur.

With such a loud noise, the soldiers who were originally sleeping also got up one after another, and at the same time, explosions also sounded one after another around them.

However, the explosion was not large, and the materials ignited were few, so the fire could be easily extinguished, and it was far from causing chaos.

But at this time, the muffled bangs appeared again, and they were much more frequent than before, perhaps dozens of times.

This gave the soldiers a strange idea that the previous few shots were just test firings of the cannon...

–--——---

At the same time, on the southern foot of the World Spine.

After early reconnaissance, a relatively flat piece of land was found, which was full of metal oil barrels, like the barrels of cannons, facing the Subia Demon Kingdom military camp below, which was igniting sparks.

There are cannons in this world, and the technical level is probably similar to that of early smoothbore cannons, which can only fire solid projectiles.

However, due to the problem of casting technology, only the dwarves who are best at casting can stably produce qualified barrels. The output of cannons is not high, and the barrel cannot be made too large, let alone firing large projectiles.

Therefore, cannons are generally only used on city walls or warships. The field environment is too complicated, and due to the existence of unscientific things such as magic, the enchanted city walls are too powerful for the original cannons, so they are not widely used in the army.

For Viola, cannons are something that cannot be thought of, which is completely beyond the capabilities of the blacksmiths in Leon Territory.

There are no real cannons, but we can think of other ways, such as using gasoline barrels as barrels.

It does not fire real shells, but just explosive packs.

Wendy wrapped herself into a ball, stretched out her hand and measured the distance with her thumb, and referred to the explosion position of the previous few test shots, and gave an order:

"Raise the elevation angle, 5 degrees, one round of shooting!"

The gasoline barrel made a series of muffled bangs, throwing the explosive packs out.

The range of this kind of cannon is not far, generally only more than 100 meters to 200 meters, but because the commanding heights of the battle were set in advance, the range is much wider than on flat ground.

They also used a little trick to tie a small parachute to the explosive pack and extend the fuse.

This operation is the same as the fireworks called "parachute", which increases the range by sliding the parachute.

"Is this really reliable?"

Alde, who was standing next to him, looked at the fire bursting below, tightened his collar and said:

"Although I provided the propellant and technology, I still don't think it's good enough."

"Don't say such words that will undermine the morale of the army when the war starts!"

Wendy has a headache.

I caught a cold again recently. I don't know what it is, but it's very uncomfortable. I feel like my brain is about to solidify. Everyone, please pay attention to your health.
