Outside the capital of mana.

On one side are different lords, and imperial troops with mixed flags of various colors are stepping forward slowly. These elite soldiers who are at the peak of mortals, but are strictly restricted to knights due to resources and knowledge, wear heavy armor and constitute The empire's elite infantry phalanx.

There are thousands of people, which can be regarded as a not weak combat force, but for various reasons, their status is not high, and the commander is only a dozen or so formal knights who dismounted to fight, and they are still among the formal knights. The worst kind of knight.

They are also not worried that there will be a large number of knights among these elite soldiers who are at the peak of mortals, shaking the foundation of the empire's rule. The knight training methods of these soldiers are carefully designed, and they can use the least resources to consume the soldiers' vitality to quickly strengthen the soldiers. strength.

Otherwise, it would be impossible to train so many powerful soldiers under the knights with the resources of the empire.

These soldiers have lost all hope of advancing in the previous training that destroyed their vitality and potential, and their life expectancy is often less than forty years old. It is impossible for them to advance even with the assistance of resources.

What's more, knight-level resources and fighting spirit training methods are so precious. They are things that formal knights regard as life. How can they be given to a lowly soldier in large quantities?

This is no different from dream talking.

Behind the elite heavy armored infantry formation are a large number of ragged serf soldiers. These serfs who have just come out of the land are much worse than the heavy armor soldiers in front. The weapons are spears with distorted wooden handles in their hands. Regardless of rust, no one will be surprised even if it breaks during a collision.

Their number is extremely large, there are 40,000 to 50,000 people. There is no doubt that the role of these people is not to fight, but to consume the enemy's magic power, consume the enemy's fighting spirit, and consume the enemy's energy.

Beside each such army is a group of heavily armored pikemen watching them coldly. If anyone tries to escape, they will be killed mercilessly, and their families will be severely punished.

Correspondingly, if you can kill one enemy, your status can be greatly improved. Of course, it is impossible for a knight, but it is very possible to become a heavily armored soldier and a free citizen that is extremely rare in the territory of a noble lord .

Don't look at the limited future of these heavily armored soldiers, the life expectancy is no more than forty years old, but how many serfs in this world can live to forty years old?

Relatively speaking, the problem of longevity is not a problem, not to mention that the standing soldiers of the lord usually only need to do very little work, eat better, and their status cannot be compared with serfs.

Behind these ragged serf troops is another layer of heavy armored swords and shields. Under the protection of these elite soldiers is the Glorious Knights led by Prince Gresta.

It's just that the thousands of knights are the majority of the combat power of this army. Except for the 700 or so knights, the lowest strength among the remaining 300 or so knights are all extremely powerful formal knights. A distinguished noble lord.

The large number of troops in front, whether it is an army of tens of thousands of serfs or an army of seemingly incomparably elite heavy armored soldiers, is the cannon fodder of this knight order. Create opportunities to attack and retreat.

On the other side, the flags of the Church of Light are relatively neat, and the army with white as the main color is a larger army. They have more elite soldiers than the Empire, with tens of thousands of people. All of them look fanatical, and their strength should be stronger than that of the Empire. Only the heavy armor army is much stronger.

The number of the serf army is also very large, although they are also in rags,

The equipment is crude, but under the encouragement of the trainee priests who pass by from time to time, there is also a fanatical spirit.

It's just that there are a lot fewer knight-level powerhouses, only dozens of them, and their strength is weaker than the knights of the same level in the opposite empire.

However, the church is definitely not weak. Under the protection of the dense formation of heavy armored elite soldiers is the corps of hundreds of priests. They all look devout, and the holy light around their bodies is permeating, which makes people feel warm.

All the heavily armored soldiers looked at the priests with reverence. They were the shepherds closest to the God of Light.

Although the conflict between the Empire and the Church of Light was very serious before, and they almost faced each other with life and death, Prince Gresta and Bishop Oli are people who know the general situation, and the camps of the two parties are not too far apart. able to support each other.

It's just that compared to the previous close cooperation posture formed according to the inertia of hundreds of years, it has long since disappeared. If there is a crisis, whether the other party can and will support Prince Gresta and Bishop Oli has no idea, and has already done it in his heart. Well plan for the worst.

"Order the first heavy team to attack the city."

Prince Gresta, who was surrounded by many earth knights, gently caressed the mane of the fire lion horse beside him that spewed out sparks from time to time, and pointed to the tall and majestic city wall of the magic energy city in front of him and said lightly.

The horse is the second life of the knight, and is the closest partner of the knight in this world. When the knight was an eight-year-old child, he began to eat and live with the pony who had just left his mother. They got to know each other and reached the same mind. At this point, any action of the two parties can make the other party understand.

An important step for an apprentice knight to become a full-fledged knight is to sign a soul contract with a partner that he gets along day and night, so that the lives of the two can be connected and shared, live and die together, and grow together in strength.

If there is not enough trust between the two parties when the promotion contract is signed, then the apprentice knight cannot be promoted to the knight, and if they fail, they will often die at the same time.

A knight can only have one partner in his life, and when the knight dies, the horse partner will also die, and the horse death knight's strength will be greatly reduced, and it is impossible to make further progress in his life.

A knight who has lost his mount partner can no longer be called a knight, and will often be no longer regarded as the same kind by people of the same rank. If he does not want to give up his military position and go back to hiding, he can only become the commander of the heavy armored infantry formation. Under any knight whose mounted companion is still alive.

The knight's mount partner is so important, naturally he can't just put it in a stable like an ordinary horse, and the knight will never let the mount partner out of his sight unless it is absolutely necessary.

Not to mention a mere military discussion, Prince Gresta never let his horse partner leave three meters away from him when he was newly married to his wife. At that time, it stayed by Prince Gresta's bed.

This is also one of the reasons why Qingguozi hates men in this world. She claims that even if she dies alone, she will never have a boyfriend who sleeps with horses every day.

The same is true for other knights, even in military discussions, their mount partners also stay by their side.

"yes!"

As soon as Prince Gresta's words fell, a young and formal knight immediately took the order and led his horse out of the parliamentary camp. He was the commander of the first heavy infantry phalanx.

In fact, the most efficient way is to let the serf army attack, which can better consume the enemy's vitality. However, the combat effectiveness of the serf army was too low, and large-scale casualties would occur as soon as the war started, which was very detrimental to the morale of the army.

"Your Highness, according to our information, the magic power capital has lost its elite, and resistance is no longer a problem."

The people around Prince Gresta glanced at each other, and a person standing closest to him came out with a hesitant voice: "I wonder if I can..."

Prince Gresta seemed a little curious: "Can you do something?"

"In order to completely eradicate the foundation of these magical miscellaneous, can you, massacre the city."

As soon as this remark came out, the surrounding immediately fell silent, and the eyes of the speaking knight became a little flickering.

The wealth of the Magic City is well known in the world. If they can make a fortune, not only will they be able to make further progress with their huge wealth, but even the next generation of the family can be better cultivated.

Soldiers who fought hard and suffered heavy casualties need to be compensated. Noble lords, big and small, who accept the call of superior lords to lead the army to participate in the battle naturally have the right to divide up the spoils and find the most wealth. Therefore, the military discipline of the feudal lord's army is that there is no military discipline, and massacres are nothing new. .

The accusations of public opinion are not a problem. This world does not have such a thing. The only thing to consider is the attitude of the high-level empire and those who have not made wealth in the rear.

This huge amount of wealth that everyone is jealous of must have a person of sufficient weight standing in front of him to receive it safely in his arms.
