Wizard: I crush the legend with my martial arts

Chapter 65 Pre-War Declaration
  Tonight, Monica was not suitable to practice immediately.

Her energy and spirit are very weak now, so let her have a good night's sleep to regain enough energy before starting again.

Alphonse called the maid to tidy up a nearby room for Monica to stay in.

He returned to the bedroom and continued practicing.

This time the Sweet family's request for help came at a somewhat untimely time.

If he could stay at night for a few more days, he would be able to penetrate the remaining Yin meridians and improve his skills to a higher level.

But it’s not bad either.

Now that the true temperature has been maintained for a long time, four of the six Yin meridians have been connected. Before the territorial battle between Count Mujik and Baron Swood, one more Yin vein should be connected.

Xuantian Wujin Palm is enough to deal with the enemy.

The news that the Swood family and the Mujik family were going to engage in a territorial war spread rapidly.

Count Mujik issued a stern statement. Their family only wanted to recover the debt lent by their ancestors, but Baron Swood was greedy for profit and did not want to admit the debt. Their actions were approved by the Senate and were It is legal and reasonable. If Baron Sweetwood had any noble self-esteem, he should surrender voluntarily.

Alphonse only thought it was funny that he had to do so many fancy things just to fight a war.

The day before the territorial battle, Alphonse had marched through the night with the guards of the Cold Wind Territory, entered the Blue Feather Territory, and hid in the mountains near the town.

Because the clouds of war were about to fall, all the civilians hid in the towns without worrying about being discovered.

Alphonse also did not recruit peasant soldiers. Untrained civilians were brought to the battlefield and could only be used as cannon fodder.

The Cold Wind Territory only has a small population, so how can it afford it?

The guards have already started practicing the Blood Demonic Art and are able to take on heavy responsibilities.

It's time for people in this other world to experience the shocking skills from another world.

For this battle, Alphonse put on the armor left behind by the old baron at his mother's request.

It has been restored, but there are still some traces.

It's not a full-cover armor, it's just a metal breastplate that can protect the upper body to the waist, plus a helmet, a pair of iron arm guards, and a pair of iron boots that cover the knees.

And he also wore a bright red cloak.

The majesty looks quite majestic, but running to the battlefield like this is particularly eye-catching.

But Alphonse didn't want to disobey his mother's wishes, so he put it on.

Lady Mary actually didn't want Alphonse to get involved in the fight between the two parties, but Alphonse insisted on fighting, so she could only send Alphonse out with tears in her eyes.

And repeatedly told Mia to protect Alphonse.

Alphonse is not worried about his own safety at all, and he still has the trump card of the shadow giant ant army.

It can be seen from a distance that the soldiers of the Swood family gathered on the city wall and stood ready. They obviously planned to hold on to the city.

The fields outside the town have been burned, giving the appearance of a solid wall and a clearing of the wilderness.

The problem is that such a strategy is only suitable for dealing with foreign invaders.

The Mujik family does not need to worry about logistical supplies. All they need to do is buy food from surrounding territories.

The sun rises higher and higher.

Count Mujik's army finally appeared in great force.

Alphonse hid in the woods and watched quietly.

The Mujik family's army is quite large, but it can't be said to be neat and tidy, and most of the soldiers are wearing chain armor. The arms are sword and shield soldiers, spearmen, and archers.

There was also a group of men and horses who only wore leather armor, and their weapons were not uniform. Some had big swords, some had long knives, and some had axes.

I think this group of people should be a mercenary group.

Alphonse's eyes fell on the middle of the team. Under the flag embroidered with the Mujik family crest, there were two people riding tall horses, dressed in shining silver and wearing full armor. They both wore indigo capes. .

At first glance, he is the coach.

One of them should be Count Mujik.

The other one, could it be Faerun?
  Alphonse had already made up his mind.

When the battle started, the two sides launched a fierce battle. While Count Mujik's troops were busy attacking the city, they launched a surprise attack.

The timing must be right.

Alphonse did not want his soldiers to be wasted blindly.

Suddenly, four giant wooden machines behind the team caught Alphons' attention.

Two look like catapults.

The other two are like towers, covered on all sides by wooden walls. Their height is already higher than the city wall of the Sweetwood family. The front is covered with a layer of leather and densely tied with many sandbags. You can see countless wooden walls. A narrow rectangular hole, and there is a device on the top of the tower that looks like a suspension bridge that can be opened and lowered, with a huge hook on the front end.

The two towers moved slowly, surrounded by troops, like two moving battle fortresses.

Alphonse could already imagine the utility of this tower. There must be many soldiers hidden inside. As soon as he approached the city wall and lowered the drawbridge, the soldiers inside would swarm out and occupy the top of the wall.

Judging from the shiny leather on the tower, it may have been treated to prevent fire.

We really cannot underestimate the wisdom of the indigenous people.

Count Mujik had spent a lot of money, and he actually used large siege equipment to deal with a small town like the Swood family.

Is this considered killing a chicken with a knife?
  I thought they would use ladders to climb the city wall.

It's really a little different from the siege in the East.

However, this thing is not impossible to deal with. Digging more trenches can prevent the advancement of this siege tower.

The disadvantages are obvious.

The Swood family was not completely unprepared. Deep ravines had been dug under the city wall. It was not easy for the siege tower to get close to the city wall.

It seems that Count Mujik has no plan to use any strategy, he just wants to march forward.

While Alphonse was thinking, the mighty army had stopped dozens of meters away from the town.

A man with a long sword on his waist and armor that was different from ordinary soldiers came out of the crowd and walked straight towards the town.

This should be the guardian knight of the Mujik family, right?

Alphonse couldn't help but muttered, "What kind of trouble is this?"

The people on the city wall didn't shoot him with arrows?
  Mia rolled her eyes at Alphonse angrily, "This is a declaration of war!"

Gee!
  That’s just meaningless chivalry!
  Taking off your pants and farting is unnecessary!
  Alphonse cursed silently in his heart.

The knights of the Mujik family stopped when they almost reached the city wall. They looked at the city and sneered, unfolded a scroll and read it loudly.

"People of the Swood family, listen, as the representative of Earl Mujik, I now offer you three options. First, open the city gate and surrender to us! Hand over your land! Only surrender can save your lives! "
