Idle game leads to another world.

Chapter 459 Air Force
"Ahem! Pull me out now!"

Wendy struggled to climb out of the temporary command post that had turned into ruins.

Fortunately, Reina stayed by Wendy's side the whole time and protected her at the critical moment, otherwise she would have been hit by the rock right now.

Not far from her, with the explosion of bright blue magical light, countless pieces of stone and rubble floated up. A dusty but uninjured Aldea used magic to move the rubble aside, trying to pull more survivors out of the rubble.

The surrounding soldiers also quickly called medical personnel and quickly transferred the injured away.

At this time, you can see that there is a huge spherical rock pressing on top of the command post. It seems that the stone thrown by the catapult just bypasses the city wall and hits the temporary command post.

There's no need to talk about the accuracy of the trebuchet. What it hits depends purely on luck. I have to say that Wendy's luck is not good.

But Wendy didn't even bother to wipe the blood off her face, and hurried to look at Olde's magic screen.

"They are indeed war elephants. The Enwei Demon Kingdom has finally pulled them up."

The war elephant troops of the Enwei Demon Kingdom are large creatures similar to mammoths, but almost ten meters tall. They have small catapults installed on the backs of the elephants and provide their own ammunition.

Although the power and range of a small trebuchet are not as good as those of a real large trebuchet, it is like a mobile turret on the back of a war elephant and can change its position anytime and anywhere. Not only is it difficult to counter it, but the small trebuchet also has higher continuous firing capability and accuracy.

Fortunately, Viola was on the side defending the city. If it was a skirmish, they would probably encounter the war elephant cavalry of the Enwei Demon Kingdom.

But then again, the appearance of war elephants was just a nuisance, but not enough to pose a big threat. The command post being smashed was purely a matter of luck.

But soon, the real trouble came.

"Report! A black shadow appeared in the western sky. It's the Pegasus troops of the Tandron Demon Kingdom!"

Air Force, join the battlefield.

–‐‐——–‐‐——

Even though the local productivity level is still at the level of the Middle Ages to the Renaissance, due to the existence of unscientific things like magic, the biodiversity is also more bizarre than that on Earth.

Griffins, hippogriffs, Pegasus, Pegasus, wyverns, etc.

These flying creatures can be tamed, and thus the air force can be created in the age of swords and knives.

The only small problem is that the cost of raising them is much higher than that of cavalry horses, but compared with the combat effectiveness of the Air Force, the cost is obviously worth it.

These flying units are used for high-altitude reconnaissance on the one hand and as bombers on the other.

The Pegasus troops joined the battlefield from the southwest. At that time, Viola's soldiers were busy dealing with the enemy troops under the city wall. They were overwhelmed. Relying on their superb mobility and altitude, the Pegasus troops quickly arrived above the Kaimen City as if they were in an empty space.

Big cities like Kaimen City usually have a barrier that prohibits flying. However, the barrier is spherical and the height is not exaggerated. Not all flying creatures will fall when they fly over Kaimen City.

As long as the Pegasus troops keep hovering at an altitude of about 100 to 150 meters, there is no need to worry about falling.

After they reached the sky, they immediately took out orange-yellow alchemical bombs from the backpacks of their mounts. Intensive explosions and screams instantly merged into one near the city wall.

Fortunately, the Pegasus's carrying capacity is limited, otherwise the explosion would have flattened the soldiers on a wall. The advantage of being able to fly is great, but it is not the first time that the air force has appeared on the battlefield. All countries have countermeasures against flying creatures.

As soon as the Pegasus troops dropped a batch of bombs, Viola's soldiers quickly turned the crossbows on the city walls, replaced them with tracking arrows, and shook the handles like operating anti-aircraft guns, aiming at the Pegasus troops in the sky.

With the help of magic, the arrows shot from the crossbow were like a row of dense missiles, closely following the Pegasus troops.

The Pegasus Knights also rode their Pegasus in the air with amazing maneuverability, avoiding or shooting down aimed arrows with their spears. For a moment, feathers belonging to Pegasus kept falling from the sky, mixed with shrill screams.

The rapid-fire crossbows were pulled to the air, and the pressure outside the city wall was reduced. Therefore, they had to release a few more waves of "Flying Dragon Fire" to reduce the pressure on the city wall.

Wendy and several staff officers who were still conscious moved to the military camp under the city wall, which served as a temporary command post.

"Let Rhaena go. Otherwise, if the air forces of the other two countries arrive, our air pressure will be too great."

Wendy said to Oldie as she asked the doctor to bandage her.

The priests of the Demon King are all on the city walls, which is equivalent to standing on the front line. They can only bandage the wound temporarily.

Alde actually wanted to complain that Wendy's head was bandaged like a rabbit, but now was not the time to joke, so she immediately connected the magic communication.

Rhaena, who had been waiting impatiently, immediately changed back to her original form. With a dragon roar, the slender white dragon flew into the sky.

Compared to dragons, Pegasus are just flies, and there is no comparison in terms of combat power.

The sudden appearance of a dragon also left the Pegasus Knights at a loss. The order they received was for a ground attack mission, and they did not carry any air combat equipment. All their weight was used to carry alchemical bombs.

For a moment, with the Pegasus neighing, the knights were knocked down by the white dragon like raindrops. Most of them fell to the ground and died. The few who were strong enough to still breathe were hit by the alchemical bombs on the backs of the Pegasus. They turned into huge fireballs the moment they hit the ground and were cremated on the spot.

Few creatures can defeat a dragon in an air battle. Unless the Three Kingdoms that sent the troops can pull out an adult dragon, the sky above Kaimen City should be guaranteed to be safe.

This is also one of the reasons why Wendy asked Renia to attack now. It must create a large enough deterrent effect, otherwise they will send the air force to bomb.

The remaining Pegasus knights immediately tightened the reins and ran away without caring about the consequences, trying to escape from this airspace. Rhaena almost caught up with them. Fortunately, Oldie contacted her in time and asked her to come back.

After all, Rhaena is just a young dragon. She can deal with Pegasus Knights, but once she flies above the siege troops, she will most likely be shot down by them.

After repelling the Pegasus Knights, it won't be difficult to deal with the war elephant troops.

Viola ordered the catapults to hit the fire bombs. Although it was almost impossible to hit them, the flames made the war elephants restrained and they dared not get too close to the city walls. The small catapults on their backs could hardly hit the city walls from a long distance.

It cannot be said that the situation has improved, it can only be said that it has been temporarily stabilized, and the siege still has to be fought.

But bad news never takes people's emotions into consideration. Just as Wendy breathed a sigh of relief, the messenger came running over to report:
"Report! The Tandron Demon Kingdom Navy has entered visual range!"

This siege is not just a battle on land...
