What Mailibula did not notice was that beside each trebuchet, in addition to the slaves working, there were one or two people wearing elegant cloth robes and holding pens and papers.

Just as artillery requires good mathematics, the same goes for the trebuchet designed by Ye Ting, a rigorous mage. These people in cloth robes are the real operators of the trebuchet. Before each trebuchet is launched, they must Responsible for providing data for adjusting the weight.

The best among them will be responsible for leading the shot, and he will shoot the correction bomb and then determine the weight data.

Such people often have the greatest contribution in wars among their colleagues. Therefore, after the establishment of the"Artillery Corps", Egypt set off a small mathematics learning craze.

After one of the trebuchets failed to hit the target accurately in the first shot, the person in charge of the lead shot immediately began to calculate nervously. He soon got the data, and then shouted loudly for all the trebuchets to be adjusted.

When the two armies were about one hundred and twenty paces apart, the trebuchets attacked again.

But this time, it was a salvo.

More than a dozen huge spheres were thrown out, drawing beautiful parabolas in the air.

With the familiar"whoosh"——"As the sound rang out, Mailibula and the soldiers under his command were all in danger for a moment, and no one wanted to be smashed into pieces by these spheres.

Melibula had already begun to pray to the gods, but this time the trebuchet was not accurate.

However, the blessing of the gods is no match for the rigorous calculation.

This time, the landing points of the trebuchets were all in the center of the enemy's formation. The error between different trebuchets was quite small, which shows the accuracy of the trebuchets themselves.

Compared to the last throw, the results of this attack were much more tragic.

This is not just because of the number of trebuchets and where they hit, but also because of the differences in the objects thrown.

I saw a round of spherical stone bullets falling into the formation almost at the same time, and many soldiers were smashed into meat paste.

However, something more terrible happened

"boom——"

"Boom boom——"

The stone bombs that landed caused a huge explosion. The nearby soldiers were either blown away by the violent airflow, or were covered in blood by the flying gravel. Many unlucky ones were even cut in half by the gravel.

The area within tens of meters was instantly emptied.

Mailibula was stunned. He had no idea that the stone bomb was explosive. Or was it a punishment from God?

After all, only the thunder of divine punishment can cause such an effect.

Mailibula is quite a knowledgeable person, and even he would think so. Naturally, those ignorant ordinary soldiers shouted in horror.

"It's divine punishment, that's divine punishment!"

"This is the result of being an enemy of Pharaoh!"

"God is angry!"

Mailibula's men were instantly in chaos, and even the elite guards around him had the urge to escape.

"That's not divine punishment, it's the enemy's sorcery!"When Mailibula saw this, he immediately reacted and began to shout orders,"The whole army attacks, everyone launches a charge and destroys the enemy's props, otherwise the enemy's sorcery will kill us all."

Mailibula did have a chance. He had great prestige in the army, so his decisive decision immediately produced good results. Most of the soldiers believed his words and immediately launched a charge towards the enemy. The price was , their formation immediately dispersed.

However, for Mailibula, this is the best result. It is better than the army collapsing and the soldiers fleeing.

So, where did the exploding stone bombs come from? ?

Of course Ye Ting did not activate gunpowder weapons in this era, or in other words, based on the processing level of this era, even if he prepared black powder, he would not be able to create a bomb that could be used in trebuchets and explode stably.

In fact, these would The exploding stone bullets are all the result of magic.

Although Ye Ting formed a war mage group for Nitocris, in fact, the role of the war mage group is not just to use spells to attack the enemy on the battlefield.

They can do There are much more.

For example, if the weather is bad before the war, the mages of the La school (the school of La's rune magic) will temporarily summon the blazing sun to disperse the clouds in the sky.

For example, in the process of detecting the enemy's situation , the mages of the Horus school will use the famous"Eye of Horus" spell to see thousands of miles away.

These exploding stone bullets are the enchantments from the mage group.

In fact, even the stone bullets are used by slaves. After we collected the stones, the wizards of the Gebu School used the"Gaibu Stone Shaping Technique" to make them. It is very difficult for ordinary craftsmen to make such standard stone bullets, and if the stone bullets are not standard, then the so-called trebuchet Calibration will not work.

However, because the enchantment effect on ordinary materials such as stone bullets is not good, mages must temporarily enchant and use it on the same day.

Although it is so troublesome, the effect of stone bullets is self-evident.

For example Since these mages who have only studied for four years personally cast spells, the range of trebuchets throwing enchanted stone bullets is much longer. In addition, there is enough time to prepare instead of casting spells immediately on the battlefield. The enchanted stone bullets are indeed very long. Efficient behavior.

In the previous battles to capture various Nomes, these enchanted stone bullets were of great effect. Facing such magical artillery, the soldiers of this era had no power to resist at all. Just being scared scared them. Surrendered.

Only Meribula and his soldiers launched a counterattack when facing the magic artillery.

However, in front of Nitocris's brilliant army, such a counterattack was destined to be in vain.

Looking at the scattered formation in front of him , , the enemy completely lost their formation and suddenly launched a charge. Nitocris did not panic because of the sudden change, but her eyes lit up.

"Order, archers, three volleys!"

As the Pharaoh's scepter was knocked down heavily, the guards naturally passed on the order.

Then, the archers in the formation bent their bows and arrows, and aimed their arrows in the air under the unified order.

The enemy was able to enter the hundred. Within the range of a single step, ordinary archers would naturally have to shoot if they wanted to hit enemies within this range.

If it were the army of Great Qin, they would have shouted"Wind, strong wind!" at this time!"

This is why the wind direction is indeed an important condition for the archers.

However, for Nitocris...

Behind the archers, the mage group has begun to work.

With Nitocris On the order, the mages of the Shu (Wind God) school began to cast spells together.

The wind direction on the battlefield immediately changed and turned into the north wind blowing from the back of the Pharaoh army.

The familiar wind direction and the familiar wind force, the archer troops and the mage regiment With the familiarity of cooperation, the archers immediately understood the strength and direction they needed.

With a command, the arrows flew towards the enemy like locusts with the help of the wind.
