Chapter 1413: "·Fighting again·Middle"


The greedy person wanted to get everything, but in the end lost everything.
Krelov (Russian writer, world-famous fable, writer)
The Tiler cavalry who roared, as soon as they entered the 400-meter range of the camp wall, the long archers ready to pour wave after wave of arrow rain to them; first the dense arrow rain, followed by another The volley of lead shots, the long-range strike of the defenders is still as sharp as ever.
The Tiele cavalry who was baptized by arrow rain and lead bombs rushed to the edge of the camp wall with huge casualties; after approaching the edge of the camp wall, the counterattacks launched by the Tiele cavalry did not directly hit the solid camp wall wood Pile, but shoot the defender behind the camp wall with a short bow.
A long archer equipped with leather armour, when facing the arrows fired by the Tyler cavalry, can still rely on his own armor to resist it; the iron artillery soldiers wearing only civilian clothes are miserable, and all those shot by arrows The iron cannonmen will lose their combat power on the spot if they die or are injured.
The artillery gunmen were constantly being shot by the arrows of the Tyler cavalry. The defensive battles of the Roman army directly evolved into a war of attrition; what did the commander Hirschberg see after the surge in casualties of the artillery gunmen? No response measures were taken.
The reason why Hirschberg was indifferent was that every iron cannon soldier died in exchange for at least seven or eight Tiler cavalry; the ratio of one to eight was extremely beneficial to the Roman army, The Tiler cavalry has suffered even more in this fight.
The Thule cavalry went on to carry out the subsequent offensive. After about half an hour, the iron cannonmen behind the camp wall killed more than 1,000 soldiers. The Thule cavalry fell outside the camp wall has no less than 20,000; in terms of the number of killing the enemy, the long The archer kills more enemies than iron cannonmen.
After nearly an hour of fierce battle, the long archers who shot at least fifty or sixty rounds of arrow rain have their right arms swollen; even if the barbarian warriors have amazing arm strength, they have reached the point where they can't lift their arms.
Instead, just pull the trigger to shoot the enemy's iron artillerymen. They can continue to shoot in an orderly manner; but as the long archer troops retreat, the iron artillerymen's volley, battalion The firepower density of the internal defenders fell directly by two thirds.
The linear decline in the firepower density of the defenders is good news for the attacking Tiele cavalry; they feel that the pressure is greatly reduced, and they expand the size of their blasting while adopting a new offensive method.
Thousands of Tiele cavalry with fire arrows in their hands, stopped when they approached only 150 meters from the camp wall, because they were not threatened by the arrow of the defending long archer, so they could calm down. Sit on the battle horse and shoot the fire at the camp wall, which was made up of wooden posts.
The camp wall, which is only made of simple fire protection, is extremely incombustible compared to ordinary wood, but the wood pile is finally a wood pile. After more and more fire is nailed to the wood pile, the wood pile that is not easy to burn is slowly still Burn it up.
The stout piles, which are more resistant to burning than ordinary wood, have at least a half-hour interval from burning to complete defensive effect; this half-hour is enough for Bai Feng to make defensive adjustments in the camp.
The iron cannonmen withdrew 20 meters backwards because of the fire on the camp wall. They insisted on shooting for more than 20 minutes, and once again lost nearly 10,000 thief cavalry at the cost of 1,500 soldiers killed; The camp wall was about to collapse before they officially began to evacuate inside the camp.
The replacement of the iron artillery and the soldiers rushed to the barracks to build a defense line. It was the phalanx wing and the infantry wing of the three barbarian phalanx corps. The auxiliary troops cooperated with them. Governor's Guard.
Wendell’s Governor’s Guard, although only has 10,000 troops, is more powerful than any barbarian army with 16,000 soldiers; the Governor’s Guard has always been a Roman city battle, excluding the system’s army. The strongest barbarian army.
The barbarian army with multiple arms has just built a defense line at a distance of 50 meters from the camp wall. On the left side of the camp, there is a camp wall about 10 meters long that collapsed in the fire; as soon as this gap appeared, countless Tiele cavalrymen followed The gap rushed into the camp.
Facing this gap is the Second Squadron of the Spartan Corps. On the left and right wings of the Second Squadron of the Second Squadron are the First Squadron of the Spartan Corps and the Fifth Infantry of the Iron Eagle Corps. Team, none of these three teams are in full state.
The three teams with a total of 5,024 soldiers are actually only more than 3,400 soldiers, but they need to face thousands of Tiele cavalry; they were destined to be abnormal at the beginning The fierce battle broke out like this.
The Tyler cavalry rushing into the camp wildly rushed directly to the tightly packed second phalanx wing, and then hit the head of the wing phalanx of the wing. The second phalanx of the limited number of soldiers The team, after all, can only bear a small part of the attack of the Tiele cavalry, and the other large numbers of the Tiele cavalry, they rush to their left and right wings.
The battle-hardened Spartan Legion, the Iron Eagle Legion extended by the heavy infantry Iron Eagle Swordsmen, are both powerful legions of the Roman City; the infantry wing to which these two legions belong, their strength and morale Natural tools are the best.
The two infantry alliances, which used their flesh and blood to use their shields to block the impact of the cavalry, launched a fierce fighting with the Tiele cavalry who rushed towards them; the Tiele cavalry blocked by the tough, even if they lost their mobility Advantages, but there is still a high degree of advantage to rely on.
The Thule cavalry in a condescending stance, using their scimitars to cut left and right, the barbaric infantry in extremely passive situations often require the cooperation of two people to form an effective threat to a Thule cavalry; one-on-one combat, then elite infantry It is still difficult to match the cavalry.
With the passage of time, more and more camp walls collapsed in the blazing flames, and the Tiele cavalry who poured into the camp from all sides, fought against the barbarian army that guarded the dead, in seconds There were a large number of soldiers of both armies killed.
Among all the barbarian legions under the battle of Bai Feng, in addition to the fact that the phalanx wing in the phalanx squadron could barely block the offensive of the Tyler cavalry, the other infantry units were beaten during the fierce assault of the Tyler cavalry regardless of casualties. Retreat.
Even the elite Governor's Guard, the subordinate infantry wing of the subordinates, failed to stop the Thunder cavalry's onslaught; not because they couldn't withstand the heavy casualties, but because they killed the soldiers too fast!
The Governor’s Guards First Infantry Wing, which is full of 2,000 soldiers, was less than ten minutes into the battle, and a quarter of the soldiers were killed; the Tiele cavalry who stepped forward on the robe of the robe, only used fifteen. In a minute, the defense line of the First Infantry Wing was destroyed.
The 1st Infantry Wing, who failed to defend the defense line, was also cut off by the Tiele cavalry during the battle and retreating. The lone warfare and chaotic formation of the Wing was withdrawn to the second line of defense after 100 meters. At that time, there were only more than 800 soldiers!
