I saw these archers with their quivers on their backs filled with arrows and arrows on their strings, obviously ready for battle.

Behind the archers, there was another row of heavy infantry with shields raised, and so on, a team of nearly 3,000 people stood almost over half of the city wall.

Of course, there is still a lot of space left open, which is naturally used for the hidden magic cannon.

As for the magicians in that brigade, they were divided into two parts.

In addition to the gunners of the three squadrons, the rest of the magicians, plus most of the priest group led by Ju Bai, are responsible for supplying magic power to the buffer defense barrier in the hiding place behind the city wall.

Seeing this, Lei Xiao nodded with satisfaction.

In this way, the survivability of the soldiers on the fortress wall can undoubtedly be enhanced to the maximum extent.

After all, according to what Bai Lao said, the more magic power the buffer defense barrier provides, the stronger its ability to offset the opponent's attacks.

As for the giant city gate of the fortress, as well as the giant gate that serves as the second line of insurance, they are both made of special anti-magic materials. Coupled with the buffer defense barrier also covering them, ordinary magic attacks are almost impossible to deal with.

to any effect.

Therefore, before the defensive barrier in the fortress fails, that is, before the magic power of the magicians is exhausted, the Holy Night Army, which has only fourth-level magic powerhouses at most, cannot break through the city gate at all.

At the same time, the other two legions approaching the city immediately began to change their formations and take action after hearing the rapid sound of the attack horn.

Under the pale moonlight, a large number of magic cannons emitting dark light were pushed out by the soldiers, and the muzzles of the cannons were raised, all in a mortar ejection posture.

Needless to say, before the magic power of the fortress defense magic barrier is exhausted, it is more cost-effective to attack the Cold Flame Army soldiers defending it.

After all, no one would sit back and watch the fortress gates being blown to pieces.

At this moment, Lei Xiao, who was on top of the fortress, noticed.

There are more than two hundred magic cannons launched by the Holy Night Army. In addition to the teams of more than two hundred magicians who provide energy for them, there are also a large number of longbowmen standing in a row with other magicians.

Looking around, they are so densely packed that they are almost countless.

"As Mr. Bai said, the long-range force is at least the size of ten brigades. As for the others, they are basically defensive heavy infantry units. Like our own side, they are distributed everywhere."

At this time, Lei Xiao couldn't help but take a deep breath of the chilly night air again.

It has to be said that this scene of tens of thousands of people preparing to attack under the fortress is truly breathtaking.

However, it can be seen from the formation that the opponent is obviously very cautious and always moves outside the theoretical range of the fortress and near the depression.

If the situation goes bad, you can naturally hide in the natural depression behind, greatly reducing casualties.

In this way, it is undoubtedly impossible to completely annihilate or severely damage the opponent.

Even if the fire magic cannon has a longer range, most of its lethality will be offset by the natural depressions.

"Is that true? This depression is not only an excellent barrier to separate the opponent's power, but also, conversely, is the opponent's natural trench."
