Chapter 186 Field Battle (Part 2)
The two huge legions are like two beasts that have been fighting for a long time. They are already a little tired, gasping for breath and staring at each other with blood-red and fierce eyes, gently licking their wounds, and at the same time with vigilant eyes. Watching the opponent, ready to rise up again to give the opponent a fatal blow!
Tiger finally couldn't bear it anymore. He sent a special army of Roland people: chariot!
The battle convoy is a well-known special army of Roland mainland. The characteristics of this kind of army are: sturdy, powerful in impact, especially the frontal impact in the open plains is very terrifying.
Each tank is made of ironwood, a special product of Roland Continent, which is extremely strong, and ordinary fireball techniques can't destroy them. There are sharp blades on the two wings of the wheels on both sides. When the carriage gallops up, the wheels roll, and the blades on the two wings are as terrible as sharp whirlwinds!
Each carriage is equipped with three selected hard-covered warriors. The figures and strength of these people are selected according to certain standards. They are wearing armor comparable to heavy-armored infantry and have powerful protective capabilities. One of them drove the carriage, and the other two, one with a spear and the other with a battle axe. In addition, there is a huge shield wrapped in cowhide. When charging, it can resist the attack of enemy archers. When the distance is close, the soldier immediately put down the shield and took up the spear and tomahawk to attack.
And each carriage is equipped with two excellent war horses. This kind of war horse has been selected and rigorously trained. It is much stronger to teach ordinary horses in terms of strength, but the speed and endurance can be slightly weaker. The horse is also equipped with light armor, which has a certain degree of protection.
It can be said that this kind of army has quite strong lethality in head-on confrontations in plains and open areas. The sturdy carriage is like a fortress that quickly rushes into the enemy, and can easily smash the enemy's densely armored infantry formation. The archers behind the infantry have extremely limited damage to them.
Imagine that when a human flesh and blood body confronts such a heavy and solid chariot head-on, it is definitely a nightmare!
The advantages of this tank are very obvious, but the weaknesses are also quite prominent-this is also an important reason why Tiger did not send this army before. There is also another reason: the cost of this tank army is extremely expensive, even far more than several times that of a knight order of the same size!
That kind of chariot made of iron and wood is expensive, and the cost of maintenance and repair is even more amazing. The soldiers on the chariots are all carefully selected warriors. They are extremely valuable. It may be easy to train an ordinary soldier, but it is very difficult to train this kind of soldier. They can only be selected from the middle ranks of the army. The horses are also powerful war horses that are one in a hundred. Coupled with the cost of weapons and armor, it is a huge expenditure.
This chariot army is a special unit unique to the Sauron Kingdom on the Roland Continent—that is, the Sauron Kingdom. The other small kingdoms on the Roland Continent have no strength to support such an expensive army, nor can they select so many. Excellent soldier.
Even if the Kingdom of Sauron occupies half of the Roland mainland's national power, it only has three thousand tanks, and the number of soldiers is ten thousand. However, compared to the 50,000 Royal Knights, the cost of this 10,000-person team is much higher.
"It's time..." As the low war drums rang, the armies of the two sides gathered together on the wilderness. Tiger said in secret: "Let’s see if this battle team can face the terrible Thor’s whip. Up."
Of course, there is another thought that makes Tiger afraid to use the team in advance, because he knows very well that this team is the trump card of the Sauron Kingdom! The real trump card! His Majesty the King spent countless money to build a terrifying war machine. The purpose is to fight against the invincible holy knights in Roland mainland!
King Sauron’s ambitions were so great that he was naturally dissatisfied with the situation where the royal power was suppressed by the religious power. This battle team was designed to contend with the biggest trump card of the holy knights when the kingdom and the religion are turned over!
After the loud bugle sounded, the army formation of the Bright Empire began to move slowly.
In front of the formation is a heavy-armored infantry phalanx of tens of thousands of Northern Legions, with cavalry on either side... Wait, cavalry?
Tiger frowned, why didn't Thor's Whip appear?
After the officers in the imperial camp shouted loudly, the phalanx of tens of thousands of heavily armored infantry regiments moved forward slowly, and the soldiers gave out neat shouts. The morning sun shone on their bright armor and sword in their hands, shining cold rays of light.
The neat phalanx moved forward slowly, the unified pace and heavy footsteps, as well as the ding-ding-dong-dong sound of the collision of the armor and weapons on the soldier's body as the soldiers advanced, slammed the Roland people's heart fiercely.
Tiger looked solemn, looked at the enemy army in front of him, and couldn't help sighing again in his heart: "If I had a hundred thousand elite infantry..."
He immediately shook his head, and now it was a war, this kind of inexplicable thought really didn't make any sense.
He whispered a word, and his messenger immediately passed the order.
The front row of the Roland people slowly gave way to a wide gap, and then heard the horns croak, shaking the sky in a moment! ! !
People who have not seen this kind of scene directly will never be able to experience the shock!
With the sound of a deep and heavy horn, the sky was shaking! ! Thousands of carriages formed a powerful charge, just like a scourge suddenly awakened, and rushed to the imperial camp in the wilderness with a terrifying roar! The sound of wheels crushing, the sound of horses’ hooves trampling the ground, the boiling roar of war horses, the high-pitched shouts of soldiers, all these sounds are mixed in everything. Although they don’t sound sharp and harsh, they seem to make people deaf. , The people's hearts trembled!
The rolling wheels brought up the sky full of dust. I saw a cloud of dust covering the sky. The front end was countless rushing chariots. Although it was still far away, it seemed that the roar of the opposing soldiers and them could be heard. Blood red eyes!
The officers of the Bright Empire immediately realized the horror of the enemy army in front of them, and after an order, the archers hiding behind the infantry phalanx immediately launched a round of volleys! A dense rain of arrows like locusts plunged into the charging convoy, but in the face of the heavy shield raised on the tank, it is difficult to inflict great damage on the enemy, even if there are occasional arrows that cannot be blocked by the shield. It leaked into the place where it arrived, but it was difficult to effectively kill the soldiers wearing heavy armor.
After a round of arrows, the opponent has rushed closer!
"Ready!!" the empire's officer shouted loudly.
The soldiers moved nervously and gradually considered, trying to make their phalanx more dense and thick.
"Prepare!!!" The officer's shout was also a little nervous in the deafening charge of the opponent.
The soldiers in the front row fiercely inserted the huge shield in their hands into the ground, and then pressed their bodies firmly.
"ready!!!!"
The spearman extended the spear in his hand from the gap of the shield, and countless sharp and pointed spears were raised horizontally to welcome the enemy who swept like a storm.
The collision finally appeared! When the first carriage slammed into the infantry phalanx, the spear was immediately broken by the huge impact, and then the shield wall inserted on the ground was violently knocked open one by one. The soldiers Flesh and flesh fell to the ground one after another, some of them wailed miserably without dying for a while.
Some of the horses in the front row were pierced by spears, but these mighty horses screamed and dragged the carriage for several steps before crashing down.
These few steps are enough!
Breaking through the forefront shields and spears, the subsequent chariots cut into beef like a knife and inserted into the imperial infantry phalanx!
The spears and tomahawks in the hands of the Roland warriors on the chariot, the rolling blades on the wheels of the chariot, the impact of the chariot as strong as a boulder, and even the trampling of horses, these have become the nightmare of the Imperial infantry!
The infantry on the front was unable to resist the impact of the opposing chariot head-on, and the infantry on both sides had not even approached the chariot at all, they were already torn apart by the whirlwind blade!
Faced with this amazing weapon of war, the quality of the infantry of the Empire was immediately reflected. If you change the soldiers of the Roland people and face such an astonishing charge, it is estimated that they will soon collapse. However, the soldiers of the Northern Legion of the Bright Empire rushed forward bravely, and fell one after another under the rolling wheels of the chariot! Without flinching, these soldiers were determined to die, even using their bodies to try to block the advance of the opponent's chariot! Some soldiers picked up a broken spear on the ground, and pierced the other's wheel with the spear. The spear in his hand had just been inserted into the opponent's wheel, and his body had been cut into pieces by the blade! Some soldiers simply rushed forward three or five non-stop...
The imperial cavalry on both sides had already moved. They tried to attack each other’s chariot formation from the two wings, but Tiger had already let the Holy Knights wait. After a whistling, the Holy Knights who had been waiting for a long time split into two facing each other. The opposing cavalry rushed over...
Facts have proved that on the battlefield, when one of the two warring parties suddenly masters a certain special sharp weapon, it is always easy to gain an advantage in a short period of time.
And this truth is confirmed in the imperial army!
What must be said is that the Northern Legion brought out by Milo has shown incomparable courage and quality. They are worthy of being the elite of the imperial army. In order to block the opposing team, they paid a very heavy price! Because they knew that if the opponent's convoy rushed past, waiting for the archers standing behind the infantry phalanx would be a massacre! In the face of this terrifying weapon of war, a lightly equipped archer cannot have any resistance at all!
The cavalry on the two wings had already confronted the Holy Knights. Although the cavalry of the Northwest Army was strong, they were still a little worse than the Holy Knights on the Roland Continent. The entire empire was crushed to pieces. But Tiger could see clearly from behind, and immediately ordered several infantry regiments under him to rush up!
Take this opportunity to completely defeat these tens of thousands of opponents in one fell swoop, and then take the opportunity to break through the opponent's line of defense! !
Milo almost watched his army slaughtered and bloodied by the enemy with a gloomy face. He gritted his teeth and ordered to retreat!
The archers of the rear team were the first to withdraw into the line of defense. One side of the wall was torn down, and the deep trenches were like flat bridges. The infantry in front was blocking the enemy’s advance with flesh and blood. The soldiers retreated one after another.
Fortunately, the opponent's chariot passed through the thick and dense infantry phalanx, and the momentum of the charge has stalled, although the soldiers on the chariot still used spears and battle axes to sweep the surrounding imperial soldiers back and forth. But facing the mountains of corpses and stagnant wheels in front of him, the chariot could no longer roar.
These have given the imperial soldiers precious time to retreat!
After seeing that the front camp was finally broken through, Milo gritted his teeth and issued another order!
Put away the wall! !
Although there are still tens of thousands of infantry behind, although the two cavalry teams on the two wings are still fighting the opposing holy knights, the only way to survive has been closed!
The ropes on the walls of the village were pulled up, and the only retreat bridge on the trench has disappeared...
Seeing that there was no retreat, the soldiers of these empires did not have any fear or sorrow. The rest of them uttered a shout, turned around and stared at the enemy behind with bloodshot eyes, shouting desperately like a beast. Then rushed up...
The battle between the two-winged imperial cavalry came to the end. They did not win in the head-on confrontation with the Holy Knights, but they did not tarnish the flying golden tulip flag in the barracks behind!
After the last imperial soldier on the battlefield fell, the Roland people did not have the joy of victory on their faces, only deep amazement and fear!
The corpses and blood all over the floor proved how tragic a fight had just been experienced here. And the injured horse that fell down didn't die for a while, and let out a low whine.
Every knight of the Holy Knights was covered in blood, and it was no longer clear whether the blood was his own or his enemy. The sword in their hands has been put down, but looking at the fallen opponent in front of him, the original indifferent face carries a somewhat strange look...
This battle was the most tragic battle between the two sides in the Second Jihad. For the first and last time, the Roland people’s battle convoy demonstrated a powerful and terrifying force. This special weapon of war was later called. "Meat grinder".
Tiger saw that the opponent's defense wall was erected again, and the arrows and fireballs in the hands of the archers and warlocks tilted down like rain. Finally, he sighed and ordered the troops to return.
Although he finally won a match today, Tiger's heart is a little heavy...
Where is Thor's Whip? Why didn't it show up today?
