Chapter 2 - Battle cry

Take your positions fast!" The commander shouted and following his order the 2 lines of militia" archers took their positions on the wall each one of them had a helmet and chainmail armor to protect their body and bow and sword as their combat weapons behind them 3 lines of trained infantry and on the towers they papered the union catapult it was special type that could use magical energy as ammo by using special kind of crystal that store mana in it and shape it like ball it was very effective against unprotect siege tower and enemy's that gathered in one place.

Do you see any one of these Vespertiliones parvae?."Aleksey asked Lena while they were standing" on the second left tower.

"Until now I haven't seen a single one of them, I'm wondering if they have spells that prevent the elf from seeing them since they are really common to learn and they probably hiding in the siege tower."

 "That leads us to the next problem."

"Which tower are they in?"

"Don't waste arrows make sure each arrow counts." Anderzej shouted at the men as the legions got closer with their flags that had bat heads as sigils.

"So what we will do if the tower we will go for doesn't have the target?" Phillip asked while he was eating an apple.

 "We will move to the other one because 2 of them will be in the same place, which will be a disaster." Aleksey responded while he waved to his 100 men to get ready for the fight they were all from the Magiczny szermierz forces and the same time Phillip left his position.

Meanwhile, the empire general gives the single to the 4 magical ballista's to fire, not on the wall and the barrier, then he says.

"Give the advance order"

"legions advance !!!" lighting shouted and the legions started to advance as for the archers they stayed behind since their arrows would be useless against the magical barrier as the legionaries advanced the rise the shields that had bat art on them but as they advanced some of them start to fall on the ground dead because magic arrows and spells.

"keep in the formation men and magical users advance and use your shield." The centurion order as they advance.

"Looks like they detriment on winning today but man your arrows are scary you already killed 15 with the bow." Phillip says while he stands next to the elf archer Powel who uses the magical arrows.

"They are not that special …. Wait, what are you doing here? Aren't you supposed to be with?" Aleksey." Powel asked, his face confused.

"I just wanted to check on this side. Please don't mind me, and please keep killing these poor Bastards" Phillip says, waving his hand and keeping his usual smile.

"Please go back to your location before you get us into a problem with the commander."

Powel says he is still using his bow and arrow with accurate hits even though he is nervous because of Phillip.

"Oh don't worry I was about to get back I just but before that here knife believe you will need it just be careful it is covered in poison ."

He then gave the knife and then he walked back to Aleksey's position.

The tower getting closer and closer to the wall and the air was getting heavier for the Union soldiers since they didn't know where the black bats would come from so the first tower reached the right side of the wall it had only legionary's with some magic users among them they attack in will organized shield wall since they outnumbered on the wall but the union soldiers were also well trained and well equipped the fight in a group each one cover the other attacking with their Spears the fight was brutal it was one minute since the legionary's landed and they already lost 4 men and the thing same happens in the central tower but in the last tower in Aleksey's position what he was afraid of happening become true the three Vespertiliones parvae immediately attacked with their cutting the first line of soldiers in front of them with what look like glowing blood.

"Now union scum entertainment me!!!!"

The young one screamed.
