On the Seven Towers

The news Xiao Chen brought back caused a storm within the top management. Everyone who knew the news felt unbelievable, but the evidence Xiao Chen presented made them have no choice but to believe it. God actually came from the same place as them, and they were all ordinary people.

Especially Liu Yisheng, who has experienced many battles between gods, finds it difficult to understand: "Why is the god of nature, who was originally a human being like us, so cruel after becoming a god? Must he drive us all away?"

Luo Ling gave him this answer: "Maybe it's not about whether he is a god, but what kind of person he is. He Xiaoxi is also a god, but he is completely different. Maybe this is the nature of the Spaniard."

However, it should be said that this is a good thing. At least everyone's fear of God has naturally become less. As Xiao Chen said before, as long as you are human, it is easier to find weaknesses.

However, the discussion about gods quickly subsided, because for everyone in the Tower of China, the siege battle that was about to begin was the most important issue at the moment.

A large-scale operation like theirs quickly attracted the attention of the Imperial people. Starting from 20 kilometers away from Heimuguan, sporadic Imperial reconnaissance cavalry would appear around them, and several Imperial mages released from the sky were also shot down. Mage's Eye.

Further forward, the imperial raiding teams began to appear. These teams were usually small in number and generally consisted of one or two detachments of more than a hundred people. In order to delay the march of the escort, the imperial people would do anything they could. They tried raiding in the forest, pretending to be a caravan, and using mages to sneak attack from a distance, but none of these methods worked well in front of the vigilant escorts. Instead of being identified early and then destroyed by the magic of the mage. Even when they encountered the spear formation of the escort, they never came back.

The escort troops marched until they stopped more than one kilometer away from Heimuguan, but the imperial army failed to cause them much damage.

Wang Jiyuan asked the escort to set up artillery positions here. More than 80 artillery pieces were lined up facing Heimuguan.

The distance of more than one kilometer has exceeded the casting distance of conventional attack magic. However, the mages of China Tower were able to attack Heimuguan through joint spellcasting. When fighting here, you can reduce the number of mages used for defense, and use as many mages as possible for offense, maximizing the advantage of the number of mages in the Tower of China.

If the opponent's mage wants to hit here, he must fly over from the air. But in that case, they would be exposed to attacks from mages and magic archers.

It took about an hour for Wang Jiyuan's escort to set up a position and install defensive formations and facilities.

Since the loss of Heimuguan last time was largely due to a surprise attack by invisible enemies, this time they have installed newly developed anti-stealth devices around the position.

This tower-like device that is as tall as one person combines several different anti-invisibility principles, including the traditional magic detection anti-invisibility array of this world, and the infrared detection principle of another world. Through the infrared newly developed by the Ministry of Magic, The perception array is used to detect invisible enemies. It also contains soul scanning magic from the Tower of Spirits. Once it detects any suspicious situation, it will actively launch detection props from the Tower of Talisman to powerfully detect the corresponding direction.

"Chairman Xiao, we have completed combat preparations. All units have entered their respective combat positions. Please issue combat orders." Wang Jiyuan came to Xiao Chen and saluted for instructions.

Xiao Chen glanced around at the artillery regiments that were waiting solemnly, as well as the many magicians who had formed a joint spell-casting formation. He couldn't help but feel a surge of pride in his heart. He returned the gift to Wang Jiyuan, and then said: "I declare that those who attack Heimuguan will 'Operation Thunderstorm' begins now."

Behind the black wooden door, Emperor Alfred was wearing a war robe and looking angrily at the Chinese army in the distance. The super vision given to him by the blood of the emerald dragon allowed him to even see the faces of those on the opposite side.

"Our plans have all failed. Stuart, Webb, Gandas, you all said that the previous strategy of spreading the plague could plunge the interior of the Tower of China into chaos and allow our warriors to repair it. But I think What happened? Within a week, they gathered their troops and attacked me. Why? You guys, why?”

Duke Stuart said: "Your Majesty, we didn't expect that the Chinese occupied the places that originally belonged to the kingdom for only a short time, but they controlled every village and town so well. Not only did every village have militiamen led by veterans, They actually arranged magicians in every village!

Our original plan was very good even to the Prime Minister who was far away in the imperial capital, but he did not expect that the opponent's hidden strength was so amazing. You know that generally speaking, our black guards and scouts will not hide people in the enemy's territory. Small villages serve as detection targets. "

Duke Weber also said: "Your Majesty, after all, the imperial army has not set foot on the land south of Heimuguan for many years. Unlike the eastern front, the penetration of the enemy is very good. Our understanding of the surrounding area is still under the control of the Kingdom of Iberia. time.

But the Chinese...the Chinese are very different. They are neither a kingdom nor a union of mages. Instead, they rule their lands in a strange way that we have never seen before. "

"Excuses, all excuses!" Emperor Alfred's tone was very unfriendly, "Just like the harassment just now, they are all wasting the lives of our soldiers."

The emperor's palm hit the battlement, knocking away two palm-sized stones, "Now I need a plan, how to deal with these Chinese. Look at how many cannons they brought this time? It looks like they won't stop until my gate is knocked down!"

"Your Majesty, I just checked today. The magic array on the gate below is extremely powerful. According to the power of the pneumatic cannon we know, even if the number of cannons is doubled, it can't blow open the gate." Master Gandas said, "But..."

"But if they can't blow it open, they won't set up the array there, right?" Emperor Alfred asked.

"Yes, Your Majesty," said Master Gandas. "The most likely scenario is that they will use magic to destroy the array here from a distance, and then use those pneumatic cannons to attack the city gate. You know, they have a way to allow mages to work together to increase the distance of their spells."

"Then how should we fight back? Can you great magicians reach their positions?" asked the emperor.
