Generally speaking, when two armies confronted each other, the city would not be so easily breached, because the magic of a great Mage would always be restrained by people of similar strength. However, the eldest prince's right-hand man, the Soro Family, was destroyed, and then the Archbishop of the Church of Life died mysteriously. There was only a huge spider corpse at the scene.
The Soro Family specialized in dealing with Mages, and the Archbishop of the Church of Life was extremely good at defense. Without them, it would be very difficult for the eldest prince's army to suppress a Master Earth Mage.
The city gate collapsed, and the army on the second prince's side let out a deafening roar. Moses pulled out his longsword and pointed forward with an excited expression. "Charge, kill all the enemies."
"Hurrah!"
The soldiers under Moses's banner roared and charged forward. The roar of more than two thousand people gathered together made the wind and clouds completely pale.
The coalition forces in charge of besieging the other city gates also received the news of the attack. After a few seconds of delay, they launched an attack almost at the same time. Looking down from the sky, more than ten thousand people could be seen slowly approaching the square city wall like a black mass of ants. After a stalemate for a while, the people in the city could be seen retreating one by one.
At this time, Beta had connected to Joan Of Arc's vision. He had never figured out why Joan Of Arc would attack a child, and Joan Of Arc herself couldn't explain it. So now he was paying attention to the state of Joan Of Arc and had been checking its interface status in the system from time to time.
Moses took the lead and led his army directly to the city gate. Although he was a nobleman with his nose in the air and looked down on others, it had to be said that this guy was quite capable. Very few nobles could take the lead because in the eyes of most nobles, they were superior people. Dangerous things naturally couldn't be done.
The situation at the city gate was very miserable. Generally speaking, the city gate was the most important defensive point. A lot of troops would be placed on it to defend. Now that the city gate was broken, almost all the enemies defending it were buried under the huge rubble. Only a small number of enemies barely survived, but they were also missing arms and legs.
Moses took the lead. He stabbed an enemy soldier who was trying to climb out of the rubble with his sword and cut off the enemy's head. He then stabbed his sword into the skull and raised it up high. He turned around and shouted at his subordinates, "Kill the enemy and you will be rewarded. One silver coin for each pair of ears. Kill, kill, kill!"
Since ancient times, regardless of which world it was, taking the lead and receiving monetary rewards had always been the easiest way to boost morale. The morale of the soldiers was already high, but when they heard this, their morale was lifted. It was as if he had been injected with chicken blood as he excitedly rushed forward.
They passed by Moses in an endless stream. Moses looked at the morale of the army in front of him and laughed wildly in excitement.
It must be said that Moses was indeed an excellent battlefield commander.
The Second Prince was at the back. Seeing this scene, he turned his head and asked with a smile, "What do you think? My allies aren't bad, right?"
Beta nodded. Although he didn't have a good impression of Moses, he had to say it. From the point of view of the nobles, Moses was indeed a commander who dared to fight and was considered excellent, but he was still far from the top.
Because the city gate was broken. Moses led the army all the way in and did not encounter any decent resistance at all.
The Second Prince followed behind the army and dismounted in front of the city gate. Because there were rubble everywhere, people could climb up, but horses couldn't.
The Chief Master followed the Second Prince. Although he was a strong master, the earthquake just now had reduced his mental strength a lot. Now his combat power was not too strong, so he retreated to the back line. However, the role he played was irreplaceable by anyone else.
From Joan Of Arc's view, Beta saw that the Second Prince's coalition easily attacked the city wall from other directions. The enemy defending the city kept retreating and shrinking, but the coalition kept pressing forward. They soon took down the city wall and began to attack the city.
And the enemy kept retreating in the direction of the palace.
The situation was good!
But Beta felt that something was wrong. This was not intuition, but experience. He was the lord of a city in the middle of the game. In order to develop the wetlands, he led his Round Table and the nearby feudal lords to fight battle after battle. In terms of leading troops into battle, he was not weak. At the very least, he was much stronger than anyone else present.
The enemy's retreat was too calm. It did not seem like a retreat because of defeat at all. Instead, it was more like an organized and premeditated tactic.
Beta took a deep breath and said to the Second Prince, who was about to enter the city, "Your Highness, something is wrong."
The Second Prince was excited at this time. He seemed to see the throne was about to be in his hands, and his elder brother was about to kneel in front of him as a sinner. People were always unhappy when they were interrupted when they were excited and happy. Hearing that, he said angrily, "Your Excellency Beta, are you trying to scare us?"
On the side, the chief Great Mage also looked at Betta with a strange look.
"The enemy's movements are too strange, as if they are deliberately leading us inside," Beta explained. "Generally, there must be an ambush in this situation. We have to be careful. "
After the Second Prince heard this, he laughed angrily. "I've said it before, the battlefield is different from a small-scale armed melee. Some small tricks can be very useful in an armed melee, but they are completely useless on the battlefield. Your Excellency, you are used to small-scale armed fights, but you have definitely not experienced such a big battlefield. So, if you don't understand, just follow us. "
His tone was light, and there was indifference and disdain.
Beta frowned and said, "Your Highness, I used to be an excellent commander. I personally feel that something is wrong this time."
Then, the Second Prince said angrily, "If you are timid, you can stay outside the city. Don't worry, you have helped me with so many things. I will definitely give you the wetlands, and I will not ask about Emma's matter, but please do not dampen our morale and mood at this juncture. "
The Second Prince's words were already filled with extreme impatience. Beta understood that it was useless for him to continue speaking. Everyone had their own views and opinions, and compared to others, everyone believed in their own judgment more, until they made a big mistake.
Since his advice was not listening, Beta was not in the mood to continue. He had already done his best. He threw out a magic scroll, and after four seconds of activation, he disappeared in a pale blue light.
"What a coward. He doesn't even have the courage to face the battlefield."
The Second Prince's tone was sarcastic and disdainful. But the Chief Master Magician did not see it that way. He asked back, "If he is a coward, do you believe that he would dare to attack the Soro family with three companions? If he is a coward, why would he dare to fight the Archbishop of the Church of Life, who even I find terrifying? "
The Second Prince was speechless for a moment, but then he asked back, "But now we have an absolute advantage. In terms of numbers, we have the advantage. In terms of situation, we are strong. We have surrounded them. Can that kingslayer turn into an army of thousands and surround us? Maybe Beta is indeed not a coward, but he doesn't understand war, let alone the battlefield. "
The Chief Master Magician thought for a moment and realized that his nephew was right. Everyone present had the experience of commanding hundreds or thousands of people in battle. He really couldn't figure out how the First Prince could turn the tables in such a situation!
Could he ask for a miracle? If miracles could happen so easily, what was the point of having an army?
The Master Magician shook his head and felt that he was thinking too much. He continued to follow the Second Prince, stepped on the gravel belt at the city gate, and entered the capital.
Generally speaking, when an army attacked a city, they would "indulge" for half a day as a reward. But this was the capital, the future "home" of the Second Prince. Of course, he couldn't let those ruffians destroy this place. Therefore, when he exchanged interests with the other coalition leaders, he asked them to restrain their subordinates from causing trouble. It was also one of the agreements.
The coalition leaders had good control over their own soldiers. No soldiers caused trouble in the residences or on the streets. They quickly chased after the fleeing enemies and soon surrounded the palace.
The Second Prince slowly appeared in front of the palace. The army opened a path for him, and he walked slowly in this path, like a king who had conquered a great country.
Soon, he walked in front of the palace moat. Through the moat, which was more than ten meters wide, he saw his eldest brother, wearing a crown, standing on the observation deck on the second floor, watching him.
He snapped his fingers, and the Chief Master Magician immediately cast a "Sound Amplification Spell" on him.
"I'll call you Eldest Brother, surrender." The second prince's tone carried the compassion of a victor. "You should have been executed for the crime of poisoning your father, but you are my elder brother. I am willing to forgive you this once, but you can only live in the territory I have designated. You are never allowed to step out of there. This is the last kindness of a younger brother to an older brother. "
"The person who poisoned my father was Emma, not me." The Second Prince's voice came from afar. "Besides, do you think you've won for sure? I've been waiting for you here for a long time, Ignatsu! "
The Second Prince laughed. "I really don't see any chance of you turning the tables."
"Do you really think I don't know that you've colluded with other lords outside?" Because of the distance, the Second Prince's expression could not be seen clearly, but his voice carried a mocking tone that everyone could hear. "Do you think I won't find a way to deal with you after knowing?"
Hearing this, the hair on the Second Prince's back immediately stood on end.
Then, at the same time, a strong magic wave burst out of the entire capital, and a huge circular magic shield surrounded the entire capital. This was not the end. Suddenly, four strong magic waves appeared in the corners of the city walls in the north, south, east, and west.
After feeling the four magic waves, the Chief Master Magician's face turned pale with fear. "A large-scale magic teleportation array? That's impossible. There will be magic waves as soon as the teleportation array is built. Why did it only erupt now? "
