Warlock Royal Family

Although it is to let the peasants pile up soil to attack the city, but with so many people, it is natural that they can't let them eat dry food. Ladislaus himself doesn't like to make a living.

Although his subordinates repeatedly dissuaded him for safety reasons, Ladislaus felt that it was a waste of resources for him, a mid-level warlock, not to go out in person, and a frontal attack could also effectively restrain the defenders in the castle, so that they had no time to interfere with the civilians who piled up the soil .

Among the "Hand and Half Sword" mercenaries, there is only one second-level mage whose strongest spell is magic missile. This old mage who is over [-] years old and has no chance of making progress joined the mercenary group because of the relationship of the Witin family. Because Kessell-Viting has treated him very well in the past two years, although he is not a decisive force, he has always been treated preferentially for the sake of face, so he came to Italy with the mercenary group very reluctantly this time.

Even his magic missiles put a lot of pressure on the castle defenders, not to mention Ladislaus who was much stronger than him.

The reason why the Deputy Grand Duke is so powerful is because he is different from most spellcasters and has been on the front line of battle all year round.

After eating a simple lunch, Ladislaus personally led a few of his subordinates and a hundred "hand and half sword" mercenaries to try to attack from the front path.

The other mercenaries were equipped with ordinary round wooden shields, but the ten mercenaries in the front row were equipped with Jing steel tower shields over 1.5 meters in length. These tower shields were begged by Ladislaus from the old Colonna. of.

The shield opened the way, and there were two huge battering rams behind them. Each battering ram was carried by twenty mercenaries, and they followed the shield.

Entering a distance of 100 meters, the archers in the castle began to attack the group of besiegers with throwing shells.

But before entering this distance, Ladislaus had already used his newly acquired fifth-level magic, the tenacity of group bears. -. -

At this distance, the bows and arrows that could severely damage mercenaries became less threatening.

The mercenaries discovered that the last shot that could immediately lose the combat effectiveness of the person hit by the arrow could only cause minor injuries, and it would not be fatal unless it directly hit a vital point.

Mrs. Reinhardt, who was observing the battlefield, recognized this magic, "The Tenacity of Group Bears". She realized that the leader of the opponent's formation was closely guarded and dressed in the costume of a dark archbishop was a powerful arcane spellcaster.

She said to her husband who was eager to try: "Wait a little longer, Rong, this is the tenacity of a group of bears, this magic can greatly strengthen the vitality of the enemy."

"How long will it take?"

"If the opponent is a tenth-level spellcaster, then this magic can last for about 10 minutes."

"10 minutes? Although the phalanx walked slowly, the tortoises had crawled to the bottom of the city in 10 minutes. The sorcerer yesterday was nothing special. I ate a few magic missiles from him, and I still defeated the bandit leader." Although they are both fourteenth-level warriors, the Reinhardt knights who fight under the reason of defending their homeland have more fighting spirit than Kessell-Witing.

Of course, being able to find reinforcements is also an important reason why the mercenary captain avoids head-to-head encounters.

"At least wait until halfway, until the magic is almost consumed before attacking. The caster this time is not comparable to the old man last time. Maybe we should really give up the castle and go to Siena." Mrs. Reinhardt Yes, but what's the use of saying such things at this time.

"Retreating into the city, even if we can repel the enemy, our territory must be completely ruined, not to mention that the Petrucci consul may not be willing to retain our semi-du li status. Don't worry anymore, the main force of the enemy The target is still the city of Siena. The troops in the city of Siena are very sufficient. As you analyzed, neither Rome nor Florence has fully mobilized, and the strength of troops is insufficient. It is impossible for such a large-scale enemy to stay here for a long time, reducing the already low Little advantage."

Mrs. Reinhardt analyzed the strategic situation quite wisely at the beginning of the war. She pointed out to her husband that it was impossible for the Pope to fully support the Colonna family, and the Republic of Florence must also leave enough defense forces in the north.

The Republic of Siena only needs to deal with a coalition army of about 5000 people who are suspicious of each other.

The [-] troops in the city of Siena do not form an absolute advantage, and it is impossible to divide the troops to completely sweep the small castles. These knight castles can be regarded as small separatist forces that have existed in Siena since du li. The knight family that existed before the royal family often only assumed military obligations, finances and justice, so of course it was the target of the central government of the Siena Republic. If they couldn't keep the castle, they naturally couldn't keep it.

du li and zi you are always good things, but good things may not always bring disasters.

When the attackers had traveled two-thirds of the way and not a single body was left on the road, Knight Reinhardt had no choice but to lead his men into attack.

Fifteen German warriors who had followed Reinhardt since he left his hometown, including several strong fighters, and forty Italian local militiamen rushed over from the drawbridge and attacked twice their number of enemies.

Under the protection of the tower shield, if it is a first-class strong soldier equipped with a spear several meters long, it can carry out a massacre against these attackers who have only courage but no bursts.

However, although they have killed many miscellaneous soldiers more than once in the past few days, the "hand and half sword" mercenaries are not the first-class strong soldiers, and their weapons are not the best array weapons.

Their top shield bearers were quickly defeated by the Reinhardt knights who took the lead, and German warriors with two-handed swords swarmed in from the gap. Their weapons were quite restrained from general-purpose hand-and-half swords, and they were equipped with iron spears of different lengths. The Italian militia can only be regarded as an auxiliary force.

Taking advantage of the momentum of the assault, Reinhardt and his subordinates cut down several "hand and half sword" mercenaries in the first round.

But that was their limit, and soon Kessell-Witting was up against Reinhardt.

However, among Reinhardt's subordinates are two warriors of the eighth and ninth ranks.

One of the weaknesses of the "Hand and Half Sword" mercenary group is that there are no second-level figures below Kessell-Weiting, and the middle-level leaders are all four or five-level warriors, which is not enough to gain local advantages.

This situation is due to the fact that Kessell-Weiting cleverly let several warriors of the tenth rank who were also surnamed Weiting die under the "finger of death" of the acting Grand Duke during the guerrilla war in Württemberg for many years .

Kessell-Witing, whose bloodline is the farthest from the direct lineage, is close to these strengths, but his cousins ​​who are closer in bloodlines are merciless.

This stabilized his authority and made it impossible for anyone to deal with Reinhardt's two important subordinates.

According to the plan, these two warriors, who were close to the tenth level, attacked the location of Ladislaus with all their strength.

But this time, the thirteenth-level Boss Silica and the eleventh-level Old John were already waiting for them.

ps: Modify the house rules and set the group zoo magic to level [-], which is the most commonly used magic on the battlefield. If it is set to level [-], there will be too many middle-level mages, and I don’t know what to do.
