Chapter 321: Bingfeng

At the beginning of the establishment of Brother Port, it was natural to fully consider the role of river defense.
The huge number of giant trebuchets as tall as a city wall is frightening.
The location of Brother Port was carefully selected again. It was at the intersection of Shuanghe River. After the diversion, some shallows where the water flow was relatively narrow, and some shallows were artificially filled in by the Yongye Army, forming a relative Narrow water portal.
How narrow is it?
The giant catapult tailored by the Yongye Army leader can blast from one side of the river to the other side of the river.
No matter how strong the sea ship of the Commons family is, it cannot withstand the bombardment of a boulder weighing hundreds of kilograms.
It's not that the Commons family had not tried here before, but after seeing the power of the giant catapult led by the Eternal Night Army, they turned around and ran away without saying anything.
This kind of fixed trebuchet must have been specially calibrated for its attack range, with terrifying accuracy. The Commons family did not dare to rush into it without adequate preparation.
In other words, if you want to take the Brothers Port, the Commons family fleet alone will not succeed. You must cooperate with the infantry. After a successful beach grab, the giant trebuchets in the Brothers Port will be flattened. The Commons family battleship can Really dominate the Danube.
The other Crocodiles who had not had time to go to Brother Port, under the propaganda of the Yongye Army leader, kept them away from the war as much as possible.
Before taking the strategic goal of Brother Port down, the Kingsley family should not launch a full-line attack on the east bank of the swamp of despair.
Because it doesn’t make much sense, the criss-crossing waterways will become a convenient passage for the Yongye army leader and the crocodile tribe to constantly harass them, and the Commons family fleet can’t get in because of the powerful force, but it can’t help. busy.
Both Archduke Buck and Ackermesser are smart people. Even the commander-in-chief of the third Fleet of the Commons family, Steuben, who seems to be acting recklessly, has the taste of pretending to be crazy.
These people get together and naturally distinguish between the priorities and know what kind of choice is the best.
In the next period of time, both sides worked hard for the same goal.
After the Yongye Army leader transported all the Crocodile people stranded in Brother Port to the Andes Mountains, a steady stream of supplies flowed from the Yongye Army leader to Brother Port.
Not only arrows and grains, but also countless giant woods, go down the river.
They are not only replacement repairs for giant trebuchets, many of them will be fixed on the Danube by ropes and become water obstacles to make up for the insufficiency of the Evernight Army's combat power on the water.
Even the relatively rare boulders in the Swamp of Despair are transported here.
However, the number is relatively small, and more are from coal mines led by the Manyu Army.
Compared to the time-consuming and laborious transportation of stones, it is better to open the furnace and burn the bricks. When the time is time to install, the lethality of throwing out is not much less than that of the boulder. After a violent impact, it will directly become a shotgun.
As for black fire oil and black powder, let alone, this kind of war weapon is naturally indispensable.
On the Kingsley family's side, after signing a formal agreement with the Commons family, they began formal training on the water. At the same time, the Kingsley family's food and wood were continuously transported up and turned into rafts.
Although the big sea ships of the Commons family have strong combat effectiveness, in order to adapt to the strong winds and waves on the sea, their shape is significantly smaller than that of river ships, and their transportation volume is significantly smaller.
Eighteen ships came out together, and they could transport five or six thousand people at a time. They couldn't get close to the shallows and land and grab the beach. They couldn't count on them. At that time, they had to rely on the small boats built by the Kingsley family.
Suddenly, the entire swamp of despair fell into an unprecedented quiet state.
But everyone knows that this is the last peace before the storm.
Byron's 382 year, late summer.
This is the third summer in which Despair Swamp has fallen into an abnormal climate, and it is also the most chaotic and turbulent summer.
The battle situation here has turned around, and several turns have taken place.
First, the Kingsley family steadily pushed forward, seeming to take the entire swamp of despair in one fell swoop.
When the Crocodile tribe took advantage of the traps formed by the Swamp of Despair, a fire scorched the Kingsley family and almost failed them completely.
Then the third fleet of the Commons family suddenly intervened without warning, causing the Crocodile tribe to fall short and defeated.
And now it is the Eternal Night Army leader who has just become part of the Byron Alliance officially intervened, and the two sides face off in the swamp of despair.
The rapid change and the complexity of the situation are dazzling.
However, this is only the forces involved in this war on the surface, and there are countless forces hidden behind them.
For example, the Black family, which provided a large amount of food for the Kingsley family, cut off the food supply in order to block the Kingsley family, and instead opened the Lancelot royal family, who had an unlimited supply of food to the leader of the Eternal Night.
Even the Holy See of Saint Ether and the Secret Society of Witches, who seem to be motionless, are paying close attention to the battle through their own means.
No matter which party wins the swamp of despair, it will have an impact on the existing structure of the Byron Alliance.
If the Kingsley family wins the swamp of despair, they will break free from the ropes of the Lancelot royal family to control them. According to the nature of Lord Buck, the royal name of the Byron Alliance, I am afraid that it will change.
There is no direct loyalty to the Eight Duke families of the Byron Alliance, and no one stipulates that the royal family is immutable, isn't it?
If the Eternal Night Army leader takes the Despair Swamp, then the Byron Alliance will no longer be the eighth leader, but the nine-strong leader.
Whether other grand dukes are happy or not, the rise of a new grand duke will be inevitable.
This decisive battle, which will have a profound impact on the structure of the Byron Alliance, will begin on the last day of this summer.
The reason for launching the attack on this day was that the three consecutive days of large-scale rainfall in the Swamp of Despair made the water level of the Donau River soar, which is most suitable for the operations of the Commons family fleet.
Under the cover of the third fleet of the Commons family, thousands of rafts and warships of the Kingsley family rushed to the east bank of the Donau River. The location is located 20 kilometers downstream of Brothers Harbor, a large area of ​​shallow Level beach.
This is not a natural harbor, but it is most conducive to the spread of the Kingsley family’s army. The Kingsley soldiers in heavy armor don’t have to worry even if they fall into the water here. The deepest water here is only to the chest. By themselves, Can finally struggle out.
"Array, array, centered on the flag, the eighth center lined up, reloaded in front, archers in the back, forming a defensive formation." After the low-level officer of the Kingsley family climbed ashore, he immediately commanded his squadron. The flag stood up and greeted his soldiers hoarsely.
The Kingsley family and Commons family’s joint combat operation, the army is exhausted, not to mention that there may be unknown air forces in the leader of the Evernight, even under normal circumstances, it is impossible to hide the eyes of the enemy.
The half-pass is the weakest moment of an army. They must race against time to stand on their heels before the Yongye Army leader and the allied forces of the Crocodile Clan launch an attack.
In order to grab the beach, the Kingsley family's army is based on a squadron.
A squadron of thirty or forty people is most suitable, even if it is heavily loaded, three or four rafts can be loaded.
The smaller the number of people, the more convenient it is to assemble and rush ashore. After being assembled in a team, a certain fighting capacity can be formed.
When hundreds of squadrons are connected together, it is the pioneer of the Kingsley family's entire landing.
Although the area of ​​this shallow beach is not small, it is also relative. It is already the limit that it can accommodate two to three hundred raft warships at a time.
What made these low-level officers of the Kingsley family scorched the most was that the silhouettes of people were shaking in the reeds by the river, and I don't know how many people were hidden.
The Yongye army leader and the Crocodile tribe did not turn a blind eye to the Kingsley family's landing.
They are now on the defensive, which does not mean that they must stick to the Brothers Harbor and wait for the Kingsley family to attack.
With all the geography that is beneficial to one's own side, it is the most correct choice to carry out all-round sniping.
Their convenience is no worse than the Kingsley family.
Although the Commons family blocked the Donau River, the tributaries on the east bank are still the world of the Yongye army leader and the Crocodile tribe. Through the complex water network here, their infantry can appear at the fastest speed. Any location.
"Let the arrows!" Just before the first batch of Kingsley family soldiers landed on the dry land, the rain of arrows fell fiercely.
Suddenly, the popping sound was endless.
Those Kingsley soldiers in heavy armor, once they were hit by the front door or the neck where the armor could not be protected, they would not even have a chance to hum and fell into the water on the spot.
There is no doubt that this is the Andis longbow produced by the Yongye Army, using all armor-piercing heavy arrows.
Although the Andis longbow is not as well-known in the world, it can be called prestigious in a small area.
With super long range and brutal power, even the heavy armored infantry of the Kingsley family was shocked.
Because they had seen their power in the hands of Crocodile people.
But compared to this time, the last time was still in pediatrics.
This time the number of arrows is so dense that the sky is covered, no matter how they move and dodge, they are all within the envelope of the arrows.
What's more, they are either on a battleship or in waistless water, wearing heavy armor, and moving very difficult, let alone dodge.
The only thing they can do is to raise a shield or arm to protect their weaker points.
However, the powerful chain mail in front of ordinary bows and arrows is not enough to see in front of the Andis longbow piercing heavy arrows. Many Kingsley family soldiers have their arms nailed through, but they can’t take them away. Clench your teeth.
Soon those Kingsley armored soldiers were covered with arrows, and the number on each person was no less than five.
Fortunately, the Kingsley family had made preparations in this regard from the very beginning. Those who landed on the beach were all heavily armored soldiers, otherwise the leading troops would be wiped out just by this wave of arrows.
Rao is so, many people are still suppressed and can't hold their heads up, let alone rush forward.
"Don't stop, all rush forward, make room for the brothers behind, stay here, just wait for death." The low-level officer of the Kingsley family shouted hoarsely.
These low-level officers are often veterans with rich combat experience and are the real first-line commanders. They are very clear about what kind of methods are used, and the probability of life-saving is the highest.
The so-called family glory is all imaginary, used to shout slogans before the war or brag about it after the war.
When it is truly on the battlefield, only a few knights who have been brainwashed by religion or family will fight for glory, and more for survival.
Why do many veterans look more brave than recruits and take the lead in charging.
There have been more wars, and a little ignorance of life and death is only one aspect, but because they know that if they are not moving forward, they will only die faster.
If they were stuck on this beach, it would really be a dead end.
He will become an out-and-out obstacle. Your allies can't get to the shore, and the enemy's attacks are endless. In the end, if you don't die in the hands of the enemy, you will be trampled to death by the friendly forces behind you.
Instead, he rushed forward, looking dangerous and dangerous, but there was a silver lining.
Because after the road gives way, a steady stream of friendly forces will begin to land.
After the formation of the number advantage, not only will it be able to form a counterattack, but the chance of hitting the arrow will be much smaller when facing the same number of arrows?
Those who can be selected as the vanguard are naturally the elite among the elite, and the reaction speed is not unpleasant. Many people have already screamed and accelerated their pace.
"Use a raft, and use a raft as a shield to protect the formation." Among the Kingsley soldiers, there are also wise men, shouting at their comrades, and erecting their vehicles when they come, covering them in front of them.
Not to mention, these rafts look very rough, but they are very useful.
Even the armor-piercing and heavy arrows of the Andis Longbow team don’t want to nail through these log rafts. This is the same thing as when the mountain Kentana barbarians invaded, when the logs were as a shield. .
It's just that these rafts are bigger and require four or five people to be able to stand up at the same time, but more people can be sheltered. Three log rafts can cover a squadron.
Others did the same. Soon there were countless stretched shelters in the shallows, and the casualty rate dropped drastically. At the same time, it also cleared the obstacles for the subsequent landing soldiers, allowing them to improve Get close at a fast speed and proceed to land.
Soon a group of Kingsley soldiers stepped ashore.
"Take the brigade as a unit, start to assemble and form a defensive line." The orders of the low-level officers of the Kingsley family were quickly adjusted. With the log raft as a shield, they were not as eager to attack as they were at the beginning. , To disrupt the enemy’s archers, but to organize defenses on the spot to provide cover for the brother troops who subsequently landed.
The commander of the Yongye army leader and the crocodile tribe’s organization of interception this time also has a deep understanding of strategy and tactics. Seeing that bows and arrows can no longer pose too much threat to them, the bows and arrows falling on them become sparse, but to Moved back, covering the Kingsley family soldiers who were still struggling in the water behind them.
Moreover, the joint interception force between the leader of the eternal night and the crocodile tribe is far more than that of the Andis Longbowman.
"Offensive!" In the reed swing, a loud war drum sounded.
"Roar! Roar! Roar!"
The roar of the beasts, one after another.
The reed swayed wildly, and a behemoth in heavy armor stepped on a channel~EbookFREE.me~ and got out of it, like a heavy armored tank, facing the Kingsley soldiers just formed The formation, crazy rushed up.
Andis giant bear.
Andis giant bear after returning to ancient times.
Returning to the ancient Andes giant bear in heavy armor.
These giant bears of returning to ancient Andes have less than one-tenth of the ability to open spell-like spells, but their size is without exception, huge and terrifying.
The shortest head was two meters tall at the shoulder and weighed more than two thousand kilograms, plus a bear armor of more than one hundred kilograms. When it ran, the ground seemed to tremble.
The giant bear's name is on them, worthy of the name.
They now have a special name in the Eternal Night Army-Armored War Bear.
When thirty-six armored war bears started charging at the same time, the aura of swallowing mountains and rivers, even those elite veterans of the Kingsley family who had experienced many battles changed their expressions greatly.
