Chapter 41 The first battle of the hoplite formation
"Kill..." The first one to climb to the city was a fighter. Moreover, the strength of this fighter was definitely at the late stage of the first level, rather than an ordinary fighter at the early stage of the first level.
This time, in each light infantry phalanx of Karu, there were at least two fighters taking the lead. I hope that through the fighters' super strength, the momentum of the team was driven by the momentum of the team and establishing a bridgehead at the city wall.
Xiao Yu absolutely scoffed at this approach. If Karu gathered all dozens of fighters together and attacked in the first batch, it might really be able to pose some threat to the beast soldiers and establish a position on the top of the city.
But if you separate these fighters and only have a few fighters each time you attack, then the orc infantry will not be afraid of it at all. Orc infantry who has reached level three has the power to fight as long as they are not facing second-level fighters. If they are two orc infantry of level three, they can hold up one fighter, and three orc infantry can completely kill one first-level early or mid-level fighter.
This is the strength of the beast soldiers, so at the beginning, Xiao Yu chose the beast base.
In this cold weapon era, what kind of troops could be better than orc infantry in the beginning? Whether it is the elves or humans, they are much different from orc infantry.
Although the human infantry produced by Xiao Yu can better form formations and have first-class shield protection technology, if they fight against orc infantry, one orc infantry can fight three or four infantry of the same level of human race.
Unless 100 human infantry form a formation, this can compete with 50 orc infantry. Orc infantry is the best melee warfare in a single battle.
The battle on the city was not much different from last time. Although the number of soldiers rushed up to Karu's army this time, Xiao Yu's Beast Infantry was more than twice as many as before.
Last time, Xiao Yu had only 200 Beast Infantry defending the city wall, not even human infantry. This time the number of orc infantry reached 500, and one hundred more human infantry positions were defending, and 100 Elf Hunters supported back and forth. Unless Karu landed five times more power at once, he would not be able to occupy the city wall.
The battle at the top of the city broke out in an instant and was extremely fierce, with flesh and blood flying everywhere. Orc infantry quickly stimulated the violent nature of this kind of scene. The attacking Carru soldiers were often smashed directly by the beast soldiers as soon as they stood up.
The elves archers and great magicians are still constantly harvesting the lives of soldiers below. For the soldiers on the city wall, unless they threaten their safety, they will basically not take action and hide behind the human infantry. The human infantry will immediately support the shield to protect the elves archers.
The great magician's ice cone technique should shine in this battlefield. In defensive battles, the mage's group attack spell is the most harmful to soldiers. The more powerful Karu's army rushes, the more severe the casualties will be.
Generally speaking, Karu's army should kill the great magician first, and they did do so. Two fighters and some soldiers rushed over desperately, wanting to kill the great magician.
However, Xiao Yu had made detailed arrangements in advance. Ten human infantry and ten orc infantry specialize in protecting the great magicians. The soldiers who attacked the city could not get close to the great magicians, so they all died.
Moreover, Xiao Yu himself is not far from the Great Magician. If there were too powerful enemies coming, Xiao Yu had already learned the skills of the Sword Saint, and it would be fine to kill one or two fighters.
In order to better utilize the skills of the Sword Saint, Xiao Yu specially created a long sword similar to the Sword Saint's long sword, so as to maximize the effect of chopping.
The style of this long sword is the Tang sword that Xiao Yu had seen in his previous life. It was slender and with one blade on one side, just like a sword with only one blade on one side.
Xiao Yu liked this weapon very much in his previous life, and now he can finally get his long-cherished wish.
Not long after the war started, the great magician reached level 7. Xiao Yu immediately added one level to the great magician's ice shield, reaching level 2. In this way, the great magician's survival ability will be stronger.
The battle at the top of the city was bloody and tragic, but Karu's army suffered heavy losses, but it was still difficult to cross the line.
Relatively speaking, Xiao Yu's losses were not very serious. Although Karut armed some crossbowmen this time, he could use military crossbows to shoot the soldiers on the top of the city when climbing the city wall, most of the people who were heading in front were human infantry with shields, and orc infantry were at the back of the human infantry. In this way, it would be difficult to find effective targets when the military crossbows below shot upwards.
As for the elves, the position is even further back, and it is still behind the orc infantry. Xiao Yu's order is to shoot the enemies in the distance. If the enemies too close to the city wall are not in sight, don't worry about them. Let them climb up and deal with them with the orc infantry. The most important thing for the elves elves is to save their lives and suppress them remotely.
Karu saw that the army was still unable to attack the city and the blade car did not dare to approach it. He couldn't help but be furious and issued an order: "Continue to attack and let the phalanx behind attack quickly. You must capture the city. So many of you can't occupy the city. When you go back, you will be a slave."
While giving harsh orders, Karu's gaze turned to the heavy infantry. The heavy infantry was now less than ten meters away from the city gate.
At first, Xiao Yu suddenly opened the city gate. Karu was inexplicably aware that Xiao Yu was going to surrender.
Now, Xiao Yu has not surrendered and has opened the city gates. What the hell is he going to do?
"Did he think we have heavy infantry, mages, and heavy city-breaking cars that will definitely be able to break the city gate, so he simply does not use the solidity of the city gate to defend, but wants to rely on the orc infantry to defend again like last time?"
Last time, Xiao Yu's Spartan defense left a deep impression on Karu, so this time he felt that Xiao Yu must have made this idea.
"Hmph, idiot, last time I didn't have heavy infantry, it was difficult to break through the city gate. This time I have a heavy infantry formation. Are you afraid of your orcs? I have read a lot of books, studied the case of heavy infantry formation fighting against orcs for a long time, and conducted countless drills to deal with orcs. You are still doing this this time, it depends on how I slaughtered all your orcs."
At this time, the commander leading the heavy infantry looked at the city gate that was close to him, and his heart was full of doubts. The other party clearly saw that his heavy infantry had already opened, but the door was still open, without any intention of closing. Why?
Are they really so confident in orc infantry that they think they can completely break our heavy infantry formation?
History has proved that one hundred heavy infantry formations can definitely annihilate one hundred orcs who only know how to be brave but do not know any combat formation.
Boom...
The heavy infantry formation had already reached the gate of the city gate with neat steps. They had also seen orc infantry arranged neatly on the side of the gate.
"Preparation." The commander shouted loudly, preparing to start fighting against the orc infantry in front. The results of their training for a long time are finally going to be tested here.
Each heavy infantry made a huge shout, strengthened his momentum, and then raised a heavy shield. Each shield could cover all the range from the infantry's knees to the neck, because the two infantry stood side by side, their shields protected the half of the other person, and then the people next to him protected his half of the body. In this way, a row of shields was slowly advancing like a moving iron wall.
To deal with orc infantry, we must rely on this kind of city wall-like propulsion to achieve the greatest effect.
The soldiers in the front rows were all shields and swords, and they began to resist the charge of the beast soldiers, making them unable to surpass the soldiers in the front rows. The soldiers following behind threw spears or used powerful military crossbows to kill them.
As long as the first encounter is to withstand the attack of the beast soldiers, the long range behind will gradually kill all the orcs, and then the overall iron wall team will slowly advance and slowly erode the beast soldiers, so that all the beast soldiers who can only swing axe will be killed.
What's more, under normal circumstances, there will be a magician hidden in this heavy infantry phalanx. If the magician's large-scale killing and scattering, the beast soldiers will die faster.
Originally, this was the result of the heavy infantry formation facing the orcs, but today, the result was completely different.
Because their commander is Xiao Yu.
Seeing that the heavy infantry formation had entered the city gate, the beast cracked its mouth and revealed a row of sharp teeth, forming an extremely treacherous smile.
Orcs were originally simple, honest and stubborn races, but these orc infantry followed Xiao Yu for a long time, and the ones who were close to the Mo were black, learning Xiao Yu's despicable and treacherous style to the fullest, and they all smiled as much as treacherous and treacherous.
Especially the first beast is the first beast infantry to be produced, so the intelligence is more activated, and Xiao Yu is also the one who learns the most.
Originally, they produced machine-like soldiers without any emotion. Their heads were blank, and there was nothing except the content of the battle.
Just like a newborn baby, the biggest influence on them is definitely with their parents, because they are always with them every day and are influenced by them.
Xiao Yu was like the parents of these orc infantrymen. He learned from him every word and action, so he was inevitably able to learn this way.
"Preparation." Beast Yi also shouted.
So, the orcs were arranged neatly and separated to both sides immediately, and then two strange crossbow chariots with huge wings were resisted by the two orcs.
Seeing this strange car, the commander of the heavy infantry had a bad feeling.
As it turned out, his feeling was not wrong. The two huge wings of the strange car suddenly opened, and then a huge crescent-shaped iron blade appeared on it.
Buzz...
Accompanied by two strange sounds, two huge silver plates suddenly flew out from the two strange cars, and with a strong whistling sound, they flew straight towards the heavy infantry formation.
The two silver plates were extremely fast, several times faster than the crossbow arrows they had ever seen fired by any crossbow cart. What kind of power would this speed have formed? They suddenly had a sudden burst in their hearts.
…………
First of all, I apologize to you. It was updated too late today. There is no way. No one will avoid something, especially during this holiday. I woke up this morning and saw that Xiaosa had reached the second place in the new book list. I was very happy. Although our red tickets were twice as far as the few behind, or even more, our clicks made us rush up. Xiaosa will work harder and update more to repay everyone. Although it was late today, Xiaosa tried to update the third time to thank everyone for their votes and support, and even more thanks to the book friends who spent money to reward Xiaosa. It is necessary to summon tadpole sentient beings to float past and seek the three of them. I have been grateful for the rewards every day these days. In addition, I would like to thank the "Hidden Rain" for the first time, "Believe" and "Dark Governor".
Xiao Sa code is gone.
