Chapter 313 We Have More Than Cannons

An 800-man detachment of the Iron Horse Knights, led by Grand Duke Soleimani's trusted staff officer, was climbing the mountain.

Their mood is relaxed!
In their opinion, there was no suspense in this battle.

He is not Father Glass, who only leads the Knights Templar with one or two hundred people. Their fighting power is too weak, and they will be defeated in the bandits' den and return in disgrace.

With just these 800 elite soldiers of the Iron Horse Knights, there is no way they could be defeated by a group of bandits.

As the staff officer walked, he said to his subordinates: "Everyone, the difficulty of this battle is not how to win, but to kill every enemy as much as possible and prevent them from escaping and becoming fish that slip through the net."

The soldiers laughed: "We are not short-legged clergy. We all have displacement skills such as [Charge], [Intercept], and [Heroic Leap]. We can run very fast and it won't be easy for the enemy to escape."

The staff officer laughed: "I know! I was just saying that. Some things must be reminded first..."

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a sudden "boom" sound.

The staff officer looked up in astonishment, and when he looked for the source of the sound, he saw a huge fireball whizzing towards him. At the same time, fireballs were erupting from multiple locations on the mountainside.

"Strategic-level Pyroblast?"

The staff officer recognized this thing at the first sight and was immediately scared to death. It was impossible, absolutely impossible. This was a cannon that only a country-level force could possess. How could a group of bandits also have it?
And there are so many?
In the midst of his busy schedule, the staff officer raised his right hand and used the [Teleport] magic that he had prepared in advance. He disappeared from the spot in a flash, and reappeared behind a rock 25 yards away. Then he covered his head with his hands and fell to the ground...

"boom!"

A huge fireball landed in the middle of the Iron Horse Knights' team. The power of the Pyroblast spread in all directions, and waves of fire shot up into the sky.

The staff officer lying on the ground felt the flame shock wave hit the stone in front of him and was blocked by the stone, but the violent heat continued to rush out in both directions like a stream of water being cut by the stone.

The sound of explosions continued, and after several seconds, a round of shelling ended temporarily!

The staff officer poked his head out from behind the rock and looked outside. He saw that the Iron Horse Knights, who had been so high-spirited just now, had been blown to pieces.

The soldiers were blown to pieces, many of their clothes were on fire, some of their armor was even burnt black, some of their faces were burnt black, their hair and beards turned yellow, and some were hit directly by the fire explosion and burned to charcoal on the spot.

Some of the smarter ones activated their defense skills quickly or dodged quickly. Those who were hit by the shock wave did not die. They were still alive and kicking, shouting: "Damn it, the bandits are firing at us on the mountainside. Shit! How could they have such a cannon?"

"They are just bandits! How is that possible?"

At this moment, Elizabeth on the top of the mountain picked up the magic conch seized from Akadula, put it to her mouth, cleared her throat, and said to the mouth of the conch: "Listen carefully, Iron Horse and Iron Warriors, I am your Queen Elizabeth X! You have been targeted by a large number of magic cannons. If you lay down your weapons and surrender now, you can still survive. Sixteen years ago, you followed the wrong people and did the wrong things, but all that is in the past. As long as you surrender, I will forgive you..."

The magic conch carried her voice far away, echoing throughout the mountains and forests.

The staff officer was shocked when he heard this: "Shit! Is the impostor here? Didn't we hear that she is in the hands of the Desert Kingdom? His Majesty the King has also sent reinforcements to Huangsha Pass. The main army of the kingdom has all gone to the north. Why is she suddenly here now?"

In an instant, countless thoughts went through the staff officer's mind, and he finally figured it out. They were setting up a trap! The queen joined forces with the Desert Kingdom to lure the tiger away from the mountain. When the main force of the kingdom was attracted to the north, she would formally raise an army in the west to restore the country.

"This is terrible." The staff officer shouted loudly, "Don't listen to her nonsense. She is not a queen at all. Taking the head of the impostor is a great achievement. The Grand Duke will at least guarantee you a baronship. We are infantry. Why should we be afraid of magic cannons? Cannons are useless against infantry."

His roar lifted the soldiers' spirits!
Yes, we are infantry, mobile and flexible infantry, and this is a mountainous area. We rushed up the hillside in front of us and broke into pieces in an instant. What's so weak about the cannon? We were hit badly by a round of artillery fire just now because we were not prepared. After we were prepared, we were not weak at all. We made great contributions and were promoted to an official position and made a fortune.

"Come on!"

The staff officer shouted, but he did not move. After all, he was a magician and could not rush too fast. The defensive power of this robe was not very high.

But the foolish soldiers started to charge.

There is no need to guess where the sound comes from, it must be the highest cliff. Just rush forward and you'll be done.

A soldier used the skill [Heroic Leap] and jumped forward a long distance with a whoosh, jumping out of the army formation. Several soldiers behind him followed suit and jumped up one after another.

In an instant, the formation that was just tight turned into a scattered formation.

"boom!"

The cannons on the mountainside opened fire again. A huge fireball flew down and landed at the place where the army had just been. The flame shock wave spread in all directions, but the army that had been dispersed was no longer seriously damaged. Only a few unlucky guys were hit.

A large group of soldiers advanced aggressively up the hillside.

The people watching the battle on the top of the mountain began to panic again: "Your Majesty, your cannons are not effective now."

"These soldiers are all elite. They are fully armored and yet they can run very fast on the mountain road. Cannons hitting them are like hitting mosquitoes."

Elizabeth smiled: "Don't worry, take your time, we don't just have cannons."

On the mountainside...

A group of soldiers rushed towards a steep slope. As long as they climbed up the slope, the cannons would no longer pose a threat to them.

But at this moment, a skull suddenly appeared from the top of the steep slope.

This skull is no ordinary creature. He was a big boss under General Kunji during his lifetime. He was cruel and vicious by nature, killed countless people, and his hands were stained with blood. He was serious and ruthless.

But after turning into a skeleton and being summoned by Zhang Jingyi, his personality began to take on the same traits as his master.

It grinned towards the hillside, making a loud "click-click" sound, and then a heavy machine gun suddenly emerged from the grass.

The skeleton soldier held the handle of the heavy machine gun with both hands, aimed at the Iron Horse Knights climbing the hillside, and pulled the trigger arrogantly...

Tongues of flame spurted out of the muzzle of the machine gun, illuminating its skull face. The recoil of the machine gun made every bone joint of the skull crackle.
