After casting the enchantment spell, the human army immediately launched an attack.
The enchantment spells used on the battlefield were generally improved and enhanced spells. The casting distance and duration had been greatly increased. Of course, the price was also higher.
The first to move was not the knights, but the City Guard on both sides of the knights.
No one gave an order, no flags were waved, and no gongs and drums were sounded. The City Guard on both sides suddenly began to move forward.
The military command in this world was far more advanced than the ancient world on Earth. Magic items with "Wind Message" could almost be used as walkie-talkies on the battlefield.
Following closely behind the City Guard, the knights and the mage guards pressed forward as a whole, moving the line of defense forward by fifty or sixty meters.
The City Guard moved forward by more than a hundred meters and directly inserted into the enemy's flanks.
After moving to the enemy's flanks, the City Guard on both sides of the hillside turned around together. The two large groups turned to face the enemy, and together with the knights, they formed a U-shape to surround the enemy from three sides.
Under the command of the two large captains, the first three rows of City Guard soldiers on both sides neatly inserted their shields in front of them, took a half-kneeling position, and pointed their spears diagonally at the hillside.
After the whole group turned around, the City Guard's original two rows of soldiers became two rows on the left and right. They turned again, facing the two sides of the City Guard, also took a half-kneeling position, inserted their shields into the ground, and pointed their spears diagonally forward, protecting the two sides of the City Guard.
After the soldiers in the front row took a half-kneeling position, the upper bodies of the soldiers behind them were immediately exposed. These soldiers were all holding thick muskets in their hands.
It turned out that the soldiers hidden in the City Guard's square formation were all musketeers.
After the musketeers were exposed, the first row immediately raised their muskets and fired under the command of the captain. After firing, the first row of soldiers half-kneeled and reloaded their muskets, and the second row of musketeers continued to fire …
In the roar of muskets, the Gnolls fell in droves.
These flintlock soldiers were almost all level four soldiers, and the power of the flintlocks they used was more powerful than the low-level mercenaries that Feng Chou had seen before. Perhaps the bullets were also enchanted, so the ordinary gnolls' unenchanted armor could not withstand them at all. In just a few seconds, hundreds of gnolls were shot dead.
At this time, a coarse howl unique to the Ogres came from the Ogre Encampment. Hearing this howl, the Gnolls suddenly split into two and rushed towards the City Guard position on both sides of the ridge.
To everyone's surprise, the soldiers in the front two rows of the City Guard suddenly dropped their spears and drew their one-handed swords from their waists. They raised their shields and charged towards the Gnolls.
After the two sides clashed, Feng Chou discovered that the two rows of City Guard were all mid-ranked warriors.
Of course, there were mid-ranked warriors in the City Guard. The City Guard in the north and south of Antalya had a total of eight brigades, more than two thousand people. Among them, the captains and above were all mid-ranked warriors above level five, so it was not a problem to mobilize a few dozen mid-ranked warriors.
The Jackalans were pushed halfway up the hill. Due to the slope of the hill, although the Jackalans could attack from above, they were still exposed to the best shooting range of the human musketeers behind them.
Amidst the roar of gunfire, the Gnolls did not fall in droves as Feng Chou had expected.
After the continuous fire of the city defense army, the Jackalans who could still stand on the battlefield were not ordinary Jackalans. They looked stronger and had excellent enchanted armor on their bodies.
However, even though these Jackalans were not weak, they were still easily assassinated by the elite city guards who were armed with one-handed swords that were enchanted with high-grade enchanted weapons at such a close range after being hit by the muskets in their helmets at such a close range. Their movements were greatly disrupted, and they were easily assassinated by the elite city guards who were armed with one-handed swords that were enchanted with high-grade enchanted weapons.
At the same time, the knights maintained their formation as they charged into the midst of the Ogres and Gnolls. They split the enemy army into two halves in a split second.
The mage guards also slowly pressed forward.
It looked like the human army was slaughtering the Gnolls and Ogres.
But for some reason, Feng Chou felt more and more apprehensive.
At this moment, the leaders of the five mercenary groups turned around and ordered their subordinates at almost the same time, "Use scrolls and potions!
Prepare for battle! "
"Cast Spider Movement or Leap on me!"
Although he was apprehensive, Feng Chou knew that it was too late for regrets. If he dared to run now, the leaders would be the first to come after him. Invisibility was not omnipotent. At least, he knew from the leader's daughter that one of the many magic rings on the leader's finger was a ring that could see through invisibility.
Therefore, when he heard the leader's order, Feng Chou did not hesitate to wildly drink potions and use scrolls.
The team leader requested to cast either Spider Movement Spell or Leap Spell, and Feng Chou immediately cast one of each spell.
After buffing himself with all the buffing and defensive spells he could, Feng Chou thought for a moment and cast a spell to see through invisibility.
Then, Feng Chou saw that in the dense shade of a large tree to their left, something that looked like an eyeball was coldly looking at them.
Looking at the position of the eyeball, it was hidden from the sight of the mages on the battlefield, but it was not hidden from the sight of the mercenaries below.
Seeing this, Feng Chou shivered and shouted to the leader who was about to give a new order, "In the crown of the tree to your left, in front of you, there's a Arcane Eye!"
The leader paused for a moment, and a ring on his finger flashed with a faint light. He raised his head and looked in the direction that Feng Chou had described, and his face was immediately filled with surprise.
The Arcane Eye seemed to know that it had been discovered and flew back. The leader took out a short axe from his waist and fiercely threw it at the Arcane Eye.
The short axe seemed to have magic damage. When it swept past the Arcane Eye, a green light flashed, and the Arcane Eye disappeared.
Feng Chou's shout was not only heard by the leader of the Fierce Tiger of the Forest, but also by the leaders of the other two mercenary groups. The leaders of such large mercenary groups naturally would not be helpless against a low-level spell like "Invisibility". With the help of scrolls or magic items, the other two leaders also saw the Arcane Eye.
Although most of the other mercenaries could not see the Arcane Eye, they could see the green light that burst out when the Arcane Eye was destroyed.
At this moment, the three groups of mercenaries who were about to charge were stunned in place.
It was only a moment of delay, and the two groups of mercenaries on the opposite side had already attacked first …
… …
"Be careful …"
"There's an ambush …"
"Retreat …"
Hearing this shout, the three groups of mercenaries who were already hesitating immediately stopped in their tracks.
At this moment, Qiankun Pagoda directly played a video in Feng Chou's mind through the communication device. From the perspective, the video was from the surveillance camera that Feng Chou had set up high.
