Reborn Dragon Vein Warlock, Genius Beauty Mage

Emperor Alexeyevna was certain that King Alexandrovich did not dare to duel with her, and deliberately proposed it just to embarrass the other party.

Neither side believes that words alone can make the other side retreat or surrender, but according to historical practice, the commanders of the warring parties have to meet and have a few words.

When the Slavic Empire's armies were having a conversation with the kings of both sides, each legion had already found its position and organized its formation. Seeing that her army was ready to attack the city, Emperor Alexeyevna ended the conversation and rode back to the rear of the central army.

Naturally, she does not need to personally command this battle, but the master knight Vasilyevich of the Knights of the Guards is in charge.

"Blessing spell!"

Following Vasilyevich's order, the siege infantry regiment began to prepare. Although there are siege puppets now, multiple attacks need to be launched at the same time to contain the opponent.

There are three thousand men in this legion, two thousand of whom wear iron helmets and half-armour, holding battle axes and bucklers, and a group of twenty carries the siege ladder. Five hundred people were archers, wearing iron helmets and chain mail, and holding longbows as tall as a man. Five hundred people were shield soldiers, holding tower shields that were one person high and two people wide. Their duty was to cover the archers.

Soldiers generally have second-level strength, the captain of a ten-man squad is third-level, the captain of a hundred-man squadron is at least a fifth-level knight, and the legion leader is an eleventh-level knight.

Because legal professionals can use higher-level spell scrolls, the mage apprentice stepped forward and used the scroll to bless the knights, squad leaders and soldiers in the first row with the first-level spell "Shield" to bless the marksmen among the archers. "Enchanted Weapon", relatively small arrows can be enchanted fifty at a time. The second-level mage blesses the knight with the second-level spells "Protection from Arrows" and "Light Spirit".

Nearly a thousand spell scrolls were used in this preparation alone, even if they were only first- and second-level spells, they added up to a lot.

For low-level legal professions, copying scrolls is an important source of income, and most of them are acquired by the military of various kingdoms in order to cope with possible large-scale wars.

"Get into position!"

beep! beep! A low trombone sounded.

First, the fifth-level mages blessed with protective spells took to the air. Their task was to cover their own siege troops. Similarly, seeing the mages from the Slavic Empire dispatched, the mages from the Kingdom of Rus also flew over their own soldiers.

Even if it is a national war, the total number of fifth-level mages flying in the sky on both sides is only more than 200, which shows the rarity of legal professions.

Other legal professionals such as druids and bards came to the back row of soldiers under the protection of exclusive shield soldiers.

The siege soldiers stepped into the offensive position, and the shield bearers connected the tower shields into a row. This place was beyond the range of the defenders' bows and spells. Then the knights of the Knights dispersed among the soldiers. They were pure high-end force. Without them, even if the soldiers attacked the city wall, they would be beaten down by the opponent's knights.

Under normal circumstances, there will be many siege equipment. After all, relying solely on ladders to siege the city is too simple, but now that there are siege puppets, there is no need to prepare so many.

"attack!"

Following Commander Vasilyevich's order, the first to take action was the siege puppet. It rushed towards the city wall with long strides.

More than 500 meters away on both sides of the siege puppet were two siege infantry regiments. The shield-hands of the first row held their shields flat, the second row held them diagonally upwards, and the third row held their shields above their heads. The purpose is to defend against bow and arrow attacks from the defenders.

In such large-scale battles, magicians generally do not directly play. Low-level mages are only responsible for adding buffs, mid- and high-level mages are used to contain the opponent's magic, and priests' magical spells are used for healing.

After all, an ordinary adult male can go to the battlefield after a few days of training, and a qualified formal soldier after one month of training. Even if the time required to train a legal apprentice is calculated in years, the prerequisite is that you have this qualification. Not to mention the huge difference in cost, so you simply can’t afford to lose.

It seems that there is really no means to deal with the siege puppets. The Ross Kingdom focused its attack on the siege soldiers.

stretch! stretch! stretch!

The first to attack were the large crossbow arrows with the longest range. The crossbow arrows, which were more than one meter long and nearly two meters long and as thick as a child's arm, could string together candied haws on a human body.

Snapped!Snapped!Snapped!

The middle- and high-level knights in the battle formation jumped out and knocked away the rapidly flying crossbow arrows with their weapons. At such a long distance, it was not difficult for them to intercept the crossbow arrows. This wave of more than fifty crossbow arrows only injured a dozen soldiers.

While the large crossbows were being cocked, the siege soldiers advanced a long distance.

stretch! stretch! stretch!

The results of the second wave of crossbows were twice as much as the last time, but they only killed dozens of people. What followed was a duel between archers from both sides. Except for the sharpshooters, the archers on both sides shoot arrows, which means whoever is unlucky will hit the arrow.

"Ula!"

The soldiers, led by the knights, rushed to the city wall carrying ladders.

As long as they are legal professionals, they can use higher-level spell scrolls, which means that even bards can use scrolls copied by mages, and their agile survivability on the battlefield is higher than that of mages.

"Freezing Technique"

Dozens of bards used spell scrolls together, and dozens of ice bridges were instantly frozen in the moat.

Snapped!Snapped!Snapped!

The soldier running in front dropped the ladder in his hand on the ice bridge. One ladder was more than ten meters long, and the three ladders together were as wide as a moat.

"Arabesque"

More than a dozen druids released the same spell together, and green vines wrapped around the ladder paved on the ice.

The temporarily frozen river surface does not last long, but it is different with the wooden bridge built by the ladder. In addition, the soldiers who passed the wooden bridge threw the small bags of soil they carried on the ice at the intersection of the two ladders.

"Turn mud into stone"

The spell cast by the mid-level bard using a spell scroll can turn soil into stone, and stone piers supporting the wooden bridge are formed in the water.

Of course, the defenders would not just sit back and watch the opponent build a wooden bridge. There were large crossbows shooting at them, archers shooting soldiers crossing the bridge, and druids and other legal professionals using "fireball" scrolls to blow up the wooden bridge.

Crossbow knights can intercept crossbows, but dodging bows and arrows depends on the luck of the soldiers. For the "Fireball" technique, a spell scroll of "Elimination Magic" is used to intercept it, and then a sharpshooter shoots it.

Arrows and spells were flying on the chaotic battlefield. Those who were shot to death by arrows, those who were blown up by spells, and those who drowned in the moat after being destroyed by wooden bridges. Even mid-level and high-level professionals did not dare to say that they could dodge all the attacks. People were being killed all the time.
