Chapter 198

The dabron mercenaries marched silently.

War is common to them, and most of them enjoy the killing feeling of war.

Dabron rode on a war horse, which is a unique war horse of * * * kingdom. It has great physique. It can be said that it is outstanding in terms of durability and negative gravity. It is not easy to rank in the top ten among the most popular horses in the world. In particular, this war horse is an authentic creature, not a powerful creature such as Warcraft.

Dabron didn't pay attention to the two towns in the territory at all. In his opinion, if he hadn't been thrown into the main array by the counter attack of the heroic sword last time, the town would have been taken by him long ago, and he wouldn't have been punished by the young master later. At the thought of this, dabron felt very angry, but when he came to the canyon, he saw an army laying a defensive array here, and dabron immediately calmed down.

He saw the flag of the other party, but the flag of this army was not the flag of the heroic sword or the snake of habinder, but a brand-new flag, which made him feel a little confused, because he had never seen such a flag. Under such circumstances, dabron naturally did not dare to attack rashly, so he soon ordered the army to rest in place for half a day. After the hottest noon, he chose to attack in a slightly cooler dusk.

However, in this round of attack, dabron did not do his best, but sent 500 soldiers to test.

A seasoned commander can tell how many people the enemy's army is from the size of the enemy's barracks.

A commander like da brohn, after just observing it, has judged that the other party's army is only about 1000 people. Just because he didn't know the strength of the distance for the time being, dabron didn't launch a fierce attack immediately, but adopted a more conservative exploratory attack method, which is also a common combat method in the war between the two armies, but it usually appears in the war with the scale of 10000 units.

The scale of 500 people, as a tentative confrontation, is also a big deal for dabron.

These are 500 light infantry with shields and swords.

On the miracle continent, heavy infantry are usually equipped with heavy armor and heavy tower shield. At least 300 people are required to form a combat unit. Under normal circumstances, these heavy infantry will not be equipped with weapons. Their duty is to become a rock in the battlefield and resist the charge of rival cavalry; Of course, if it's just like this, it must be difficult to be effective. Therefore, heavy infantry are usually equipped with at least twice as many dragon spearmen as heavy infantry. This kind of dragon spear is a five meter long heavy spear. It needs three people to work together to hold this spear. It is said that it was the standard combat weapon of Dragon Knights in those years.

If you want to train such an army, it will naturally consume huge funds. Generally speaking, except for the state and those powerful nobles, ordinary nobles are not able to train such an army. Therefore, the army improved according to this standard system began to be popular on the miracle continent.

Like Sean's steel wings, the light infantry sent by dabron at the moment are all reconstructed according to the specifications of heavy infantry and dragon gunners. Of course, an army like this naturally has different development priorities. For example, steel wing was famous for relying on positional defense and counterattack in the game; The light infantry is a common reformed organizational system in the world. While sacrificing defense, it also allows the troops to have a certain combat capability. It is not as passive as heavy infantry, and its mobility is relatively higher than that of steel wings.

Before the battle, William saw that the other party only sent 500 light infantry, and his face was slightly relieved: "it seems that it's not difficult to last for an hour."

Puda's face also showed a trace of relief. As long as the other side is willing to make a tentative attack, with the cooperation of 80 steel wings, spearmen and archers, it can absolutely defeat these 500 people. In this way, the other side needs to rethink its tactical policy. Naturally, for William, who is determined to delay time, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages, So he wanted the war to last for three days and two nights.

"Our Lord, it's been nearly two months." Puda asked suddenly.

"It's been two months and seven days." Said William.

"Are you afraid?" Puda asked again.

"Of course." William nodded, "I'm afraid when the Lord comes back, what he sees is just a burning territory!"

Puda nodded and said nothing more. In fact, he really wanted to ask why he didn't invite Cecilia, the magician, but considering his own identity, he was not qualified to ask this, so he didn't speak. In fact, if Cecilia could join the battle, the war would be much easier. At least he had seen Cecilia's magic power.

It's just this kind of thing, William also has suffering words. Cecilia has entered the state of complete self meditation. No one knows when to wake up. Although William has no combat ability, he still knows very well that as long as Cecilia wakes up, he must be in the upper bronze, and dabron has no magician after all, So William naturally didn't wake Cecilia at this time.

Soon, 500 light infantry had approached the front line.

The first round of arrow rain was soon shot out of the army array.

Under the guidance of 80 veterans, 100 recruits fired all the arrows on the bowstring, and then fell into the formation of 500 light infantry.

These light combat infantry are obviously real veterans. They are still moving forward silently, but they raise the long shield in their hands at the same time - this is a military shield different from the round shield. It is about 50cm long and made of solid wood and iron. It is half as short as the half body shield, but it is more than twice as light. It is the standard configuration of light combat infantry.

When these light infantry raised their shields in a neat and uniform manner, the change of the formation of 500 people looked like a surge of waves, full of a shocking feast for the eyes. Even if these are the enemy, William and Puda can't help but give a dark praise in their hearts, because to train an army to such a neat and uniform action, this training alone must at least be paid and accumulated over the years.

The falling of arrow rain, without suspense, did not make any achievements, only heard a tinkling sound, and the sound was not dense or sparse at all.

William's hand was raised again, and 180 bows and arrows pulled their bows again. This time, it was no longer a projectile, but aimed from the front. When William waved his hand, he heard hundreds of bows and quivers, and the flying arrows immediately broke through the air and shot again at the 500 light infantry.

The roaring arrows are like locusts. Although the number is not large, the volley of nearly 200 arrows is still a shock - of course, this shock is for the people of the people's corps. Naturally, it is nothing for the 500 light infantry. After all, in the chaotic place of the wilderness, what kind of cruel and tragic war has not been seen. Therefore, these light infantry just put down their long shields and intercepted them in front of them to block these arrows from the front, but their pace did not stop at all.

"Free shooting!" Seeing that these light infantry changed so quickly, William did not lose any color and still calmly issued a new command.

As a result, the archers began to shoot freely, or throw, or hang, or flat, without any rules and restrictions. In this way, these light infantry naturally have to keep the posture of raising and erecting shields. Although this has exacerbated their physical exertion, the effect is also real, because William's side has fired at least five rounds of arrow rain attacks, but 500 light infantry have not been reduced at all.

Dabron, riding on a high horse, looked at the changes in the war situation in front of him and finally gave a sneer: "the two wing forces detour for revenge, the archers rush into the range, and the others rush forward Give orders to the forward troops to rush through the enemy's defense! "

Soon the heralds began to carry out Da brohn's orders.

The dabron mercenary regiment, which was still standing, soon changed. The troops on the left and right wings were swordsmen troops mainly engaged in mobile operations, with 300 people each. They were lightly loaded and had much faster mobility than light infantry and others. If you look down from a high altitude, you can see that the two troops quickly spread to both sides like a dark cloud, and then began to encircle the fortifications built by William, as if they were trying to cut off the retreat of the civil corps.

The remaining 1000 people quickly ran forward. More than half of the 1000 people were archers, while the other part were halberds with halberds. These halberds can also be regarded as a kind of heavy infantry, but they are not mainly defensive, but more offensive. They hold halberds and wear plate armor, and ten people can form a coordination team. When targeting combat units that are also infantry, halberds can often give full play to their strong combat effectiveness.

Looking at the moment, the dabron mercenary regiment immediately launched a full-scale offensive, and the militia's face finally turned a little pale. This heavy killing spirit has completely spread in this battlefield, and the militia of Puda people's regiment finally felt the real difference in the battlefield in front of us.

Only William, still calm as before, looked at the light infantry who began to attack, and said in a deep voice, "prepare the Lancers!"

The long Gunners in line immediately raised their long guns flat, and then stepped forward together and stood at the front of the fortification. It seemed that they were the first line of defense that light infantry had to defeat. But when the light infantry of the dabron mercenary regiment saw these young long Gunners trembling, they immediately became very excited. However, although they were excited, at least they did not forget the military discipline, and their formation remained very complete.

But the next second!

Only a burst of screams and screams sounded. The fastest group of light infantry suddenly stepped empty and fell into the pit more than ten meters away from the camp. The pit is not deep, but there are still several meters, and the width and length are not small. Therefore, when the front row of these light combat infantry fell into dozens of people, the formation of the whole light combat infantry was in chaos.

"Rocket!" At this time, William, who seemed to have expected for a long time, shouted coldly again, "shoot!"

A burst of rockets were thrown from the camp and then fell into the pit. In an instant, a blazing flame rose into the sky, and a terrible howl burst out from the fire pit.

In the distance, dabron's face became very ugly in an instant（ To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation and monthly ticket at qidian.com. Your support is my greatest motivation.)
