Blessing from the goddess at the beginning, technology VS magic

The effect of the live ammunition performance exceeded Rhett's expectations, and more people signed up to join the army. In order to keep up with the progress of the Sunri Republic, many smart people began to go to night schools to learn knowledge after work. They knew that sooner or later, they would not be able to read. It's going to be eliminated.

At the same time, many spies were caught in this military parade and performance, which can be said to kill two birds with one stone. It's just that spies are impossible to guard against, and someone still sent the information to General Enoch.

"Artillery, muskets, it's interesting. So, our dragon knight was killed by these things?"

The guard next to him replied: "General, it looks like this at the moment. There is no magician on the other side."

Enoch shook his head and said: "Don't be fooled by the enemy's tricks. Are you sure this is not their deception? It says that these weapons can be used by ordinary people without magic. Every shot has The strength of the Grand Mage is simply unimaginable."

"The general is right. I don't believe that the dragon knight we have trained for more than ten years can be killed by a mortal so easily."

"But even if there is, it doesn't matter."

Enoch looked ahead, only the last few iron nets were there, no longer as dense as before.

"Our magic crystal shield can withstand the direct blow of the great magician"

Since this time he will face an attack from the Stephen Empire, one of the most powerful in the world, Red will be stationed at the headquarters just in case.

Scouts in the distance have discovered the enemy's army. The enemy is clearing the last air defense blockade and is very densely populated.

boom! ! !

The C-2 howitzer opened fire. Before the last air defense blocking net was completely cleared, the imperial army was defenseless! Some artillery inevitably hit the iron chains of the blocking net, but this only accounted for about 5% of the shells fired. A total of 100 artillery pieces from the Nirvana Army's 35 artillery battalions roared at the same time. The last one had artillery pieces. The battalion is a reinforced battalion.

Before the Imperial Army could react, artillery shells fell on their heads. All living beings were equal under the 105mm howitzer. Except for those at the level of senior knights and grand magisters, it was basically impossible to survive.

Enoch was analyzing the map in the military tent when he suddenly heard a noise. When he went out, he saw that the front of the army was full of fire.

Enemy attack? The other party really has weapons that mortals can use!

He reacts quickly

"Activate the magic crystal shield! Enemy attack! Activate the magic crystal shield quickly!"

After blasting the people in front, the artillery fire began to extend, and soon exceeded the visual distance. Since there was no effective sighting equipment, the artillery could only blast forward bit by bit, and waited for the scouts to come back and tell the valuable people. Target.

After the bombardment began, the scouts also found the location of the suspected enemy headquarters. The tent was particularly obvious because it was the most luxurious.

Afterwards, the scout immediately reported the coordinates to the artillery.

"Bearing, 83 550,19, 560 , release!"

As the order was issued, 100 howitzers were fired at the same place, fearing that they would not be killed.

Unfortunately, it really couldn't be killed. The magic crystal shield had been deployed and all the artillery was intercepted.

Enoch looked at the fireballs blooming above his head and felt lucky in his heart. He was afraid that if it were any later, his life would be in danger.

"Grandma, please report to the headquarters that the enemy has activated the magic crystal shield. The beheading operation has failed. The artillery is continuing to fire. Please ask for further instructions."

said an artillery battalion commander.

Bill and Rhett are waiting for battle reports from the front line at the general command.

"Chief, news from the front line has arrived."

Bill looked at it and said, "The magic crystal shield is the one we encountered when we fought against the West Bay Federation?"

"Yes"

Rhett didn't speak next to him, because Bill was nominally the current leader, and he would not intervene unless absolutely necessary.

"Then keep blasting. Last time we used that old-fashioned artillery to blow up the magic crystal shield. This time our firepower has been improved by more than one level."

"Chief, it's useless. It's been blasted for 10 rounds. It's useless at all. The magic crystal shield shows no sign of being unable to hold on."

Bill is no longer the little villager he was a few years ago. After thinking for a while, he said: "How big is the coverage of this magic crystal shield?"

"The opponent seems to be able to cover all 15 people, and no matter where the bombardment is, they are blocked."

Rhett asked Miriam and the others: "Does the magic crystal shield have such a large coverage area?"

As magic consultants, of course they are also in the headquarters.

Miriam then said: "We also took military theory classes at the Magic Academy. The coverage area of ​​the magic crystal shield is circular. The largest magic crystal shield can only cover 5 people, and it is very rare. There are only two large ones. Only the army directly under the empire can be used universally. Of course, it can be squeezed to accommodate more, but once it breaks, many people will die. Ordinary generals will not make such mistakes, "

"The one we are fighting is the fifth prince of the Stephen Empire. He doesn't seem to be able to command the empire's direct troops, right?"

"That's right"

Bill understood after hearing this.

"So this is actually a defense composed of a large magic crystal shield and several small magic crystal shields?"

He turned to the telegraph operator and said: "Order the artillery to bomb at the edge of the enemy's formation, find out where their magic crystal shields are deployed, and move them after the attack."

The artillerymen who received the order did not know the use of this, but after long-term training, they chose to obey the order unconditionally and fired all the artillery shells. The scouts standing at the high point observed the impact of the artillery shells with binoculars. The crater also paints a picture.

Then he described the picture in words and sent it to the general headquarters.

Bill said: "As expected, there is a large magic crystal shield and four smaller magic crystal shields. Let's blow up the smaller ones around us first. Where are the imperial troops?"

"Report, after our shelling stopped, they also stopped"

"Um?"

Enoch thought he had seen a ghost today. He was walking well when he was suddenly attacked. Those mortal mud-legged people actually had such powerful weapons. He could tell that these explosions were not caused by magic, because he knew very well. He saw a black shadow flying above his head and then being blocked by the magic crystal shield. Then an explosion was launched, and many iron pieces were scattered around.

I have to say that the person who was beaten was really aggrieved because he didn’t even see the enemy’s face from beginning to end! A total of 15 people, I don’t know who is beating me!

Oh, there shouldn't be 2000 people left now, because more than people have been killed by the bombing.

After the enemy's attack ended, Enoch ordered the army to stop and rest. Since the Nirvana army kept bombing Enoch, only 40% of his magic crystal shield magic power was left, and the other four still had 70% left. You also need to stop for supplies. The magic crystal shield is powered by magic crystals, which are a special energy storage ore. They are products of ordinary gems transformed by magicians.

Magic crystals can be reused. You only need to offer demons into them. The method of offering demons is similar to drawing blood. People in this world have more or less magic in their bodies. The Stephen Empire requires citizens to sacrifice demons. Donating more can be tax deductible.

Enoch also wrote a letter to the fifth prince Rodney, reporting to him the situation here, hoping to get more supplies.
