Chapter 340 Soldiers approaching the city and the impenetrable musket

  Under Edwell's persecution, Hebrew and Baro looked at each other, regretful in their hearts, if their army were all dead, even a duke would not be able to deal with the attacks of the rest of the nobles.

  If they had known this before, they might as well follow Hatar's order and enter the capital...

  But it is obviously too late to regret it now. No matter how unwilling Hebrew and Barrow are, there is nothing they can do.

   At this moment, Adwell's indifferent voice rang in everyone's ears.

   "Among all of you, whoever can capture the king's capital, or make the most outstanding achievements, will be the next king of [Hadrata]!"

   Adwell's words were like throwing a boulder into a calm lake, and all the nobles present were red-eyed.

  Hebrew and Barrow are no exception, this is an opportunity to rule an entire kingdom!

   may also be the only chance!

  As the nobles of the kingdom, they can attack each other and plunder the territory, and they can also use various shady methods, but there is one line that cannot be touched, and that is to replace the king!

   Unless approved by the Holy See... wear the crown under the testimony and gift of God!

  More than a hundred years ago, the former king of the Bazel family won the throne in this way!

   That is to say, after becoming a king, as long as he does not rebel against the Holy See, he can pass on the throne forever under the protection of God!

  Now that King Bazel is dead, the eldest prince also died tragically in the capital, and with Edwell's guarantee, the replacement of the new king is also possible!

  Thinking of this, the nobles of the kingdom are very excited. With the support of the Holy See, even a small baron has a chance to rise to the sky and become a king!

  Hebrew immediately took action, rode his horse and rushed in front of the soldiers, speaking impassionedly.

  "God's people, those believers of evil gods are in this royal capital in front of you. They are trying to open the gate of hell, destroy the entire kingdom, and let devils, disasters and plagues run rampant in the world...

  We must not tolerate such things happening. These perpetrators and cultists must pay the blood price for their evil deeds! "

   "As long as you kill an enemy in front of you, you can get an imperial gold coin, kill a wizard and canonize the title of knight, and the first person who climbs the city wall will be rewarded with a thousand gold and be awarded the title of earl!"

  The words of Hebrew resounded like a bell in the wilderness. Inspired by the reward, the enthusiasm of tens of thousands of troops was mobilized in an instant.

   "God is equal to me!" Hebrew shouted loudly.

   "God is equal to me!"

  The morale of the tens of thousands of troops was high, and they roared in unison, and the loud and clear shouts echoed in the sky like thunder.

   Afterwards, dozens of nobles led their own private soldiers and marched towards the capital...

  The beating of drums became louder and louder, and at the same time, there were pious songs of praise from priests and bishops.

  【The great Lord of the Stars, the Goddess of the Moon, the creator of all things in the world, I beg you to bestow your gift, and give us light, hope and strength...】

  Among the ethereal hymns, the brilliance of divine magic emerged from tens of thousands of noble soldiers, and their hearts were filled with infinite courage and strength at this moment.

"Here they come!" The power of tens of thousands of people charging in groups made the old York and others who had been prepared for a long time nervous, but they still set up their muskets immediately and waited quietly for the enemy reach the shooting distance.

The best output environment for muskets is of course that the two sides are on the same plane and shooting in a row, but condescending can also get a wider field of vision, not to mention that they have too many enemies this time, so there is no need to worry about hitting or not hitting. The problem.

  The 10,000 musketeers guarding the city wall were divided into several arrays, and fired separately according to orders, forming an uninterrupted firepower network.

Accompanied by the first round of gunfire, the soldiers charging in groups fell down in a row. It was estimated that there were as many as a thousand people. He got up, shouted 'for the gods' with red eyes and continued to rush towards the city wall.

  The wizards who watched the battle on the city wall all looked extremely solemn.

  Lin En could also tell that these people were blessed with magical protection.

  The last time he faced the Kingdom’s army, he had seen something similar, but the opponents at that time were only a few bishops and dozens of priests, and the magic power released was limited. It could only brainwash people and increase their courage.

  But this time it was different. Tens of thousands of people were actually blessed with a magical shield. The strength should be similar to that of a ring of protective magic. It could not resist the attack of muskets, but it could be greatly weakened.

  If it hits a place with harder armor, it may even be impossible to break through the defense, and it will only be knocked down by the impact.

  If the guards are not using muskets but crossbows at this moment, it may be difficult to break the defense!

"Fortunately, these shields are disposable..." Raphael saw that most of the soldiers who got up again fell to the ground after being shot by the second round, and did not get up again. Suddenly he was relieved.

   But this is equivalent to one more life for one person.

  Thinking of this, Raphael turned his head and glanced at Lynn, really admiring the foresight of this magic star.

  When discussing how to conduct this war a few days ago, they all proposed to take the initiative to attack. With the advantage of equipment, they directly defeated the legion of the Holy See in the wilderness, and even killed all the way to the empire.

  After all, the previous two victories came too easily. The Musketeers destroyed several times their opponents with extremely low casualties. It can be said that their enemies can't even resist effectively. Isn't that a flat push all the way?

  Only Lynn insisted on defending the city, and tried to avoid fighting in the plains until he found out the enemy's details.

   This is good for Musketeers, but it's also great for large regiments and cavalry charges!

   Now it seems that with this kind of large-scale protective magic, the muskets can't be 100% powerful. They are fighting in the wilderness, and the array is very likely to be directly defeated...

At this time, all the musketeers also found that their enemy this time was unusual. They were able to catch a musket hard without dying, and they were able to keep approaching with the climbing ladder alive and well, and they all put away immediately. Arrogant mentality before.

  Old York was assigned to the third wave of shooting. In the first two rounds of shooting, he held the binoculars exchanged for his military exploits and carefully observed the enemy's movements.

  It was soon discovered that the soldiers who died in the first round of gunfire were all hit by weak parts of the armor, or were very unlucky and directly received them with their faces.

  So, it’s not that the muskets in their hands can’t break the defense, but that they have been weakened by magic protection and armor, so the bullets can’t cause fatal damage...
