Chapter 395: Wall charge

Views:

Charged heavy cavalry, if lined up, there is a proper term for it - wall charge.

Due to the terrain, before the main castle, it was difficult for the heavy cavalry passing through the streets to sacrifice such a big killer. At least, it is difficult for them to really put out a wall that once charged as if they were on the plain.

However, it is not a big problem to put a few shorter walls.

The sluggish demons were no match for the heavy cavalry at all. Soon, a large number of demons scattered and collapsed under the impact of the cavalry, and were wiped out by the wolf cavalry following behind, and were quickly cleared out of the field.

Then, the charging heavy cavalry ran into Kangli's guards.

Conley is not a person who does not know military affairs. He was quite aware of how ferocious the charge of the heavy cavalry was. So, at the forefront of the army formation, he put out a long spear formation.

Guards warriors in heavy armor, armed with large shields and spears, formed a thick formation. The spears pointed like a forest at the cavalry who were charging towards them.

If there is really any natural enemy of the heavy cavalry's charge in this world, the spear array must be one of them.

It's just that this kind of natural enemy theory only exists in theory in most cases. In a real war, how stupid is the cavalry commander to command the precious heavy cavalry to rush head-on to the enemy's spear forest

Regardless of whether others are stupid or not, at least the commander of Ouze's heavy cavalry is not that stupid. He will never charge forward with his men under the gun.

He was 100% sure that if his heavy cavalry really rushed up, it would definitely be able to overwhelm the spear array on the opposite side. This comes from the confidence of the super heavy cavalry after the man, horse and armor reached two tons. But that is bound to have to pay a considerable price.

Breaking down a spear formation, paying so many cavalry casualties, and such a big loss-making business, whoever did it was stupid.

Under this kind of thinking, the heavy cavalry who had been crushing forward like sections of city walls, before facing the spear formation, turned a direction, turned a corner, and headed towards the two sides.

The pikemen were dumbfounded now.

That's right, the heavy cavalry shock spear formation will inevitably suffer heavy losses. However, if the cavalry bypasses and does not charge, what can the spear formation do to the cavalry? Of course, like the heavy cavalry under Ou Ze, the war horses carrying huge weight, no matter how sophisticated they are, or even have some supernatural cultivation methods in them, they can't run for a long time and fast like light cavalry and maneuver. However, no matter how slow it runs, it is still a four-legged creature! How do human soldiers chase with two legs

What's more, where are the soldiers of the Guards Corps wearing heavy armor, holding heavy shields and two or three meter long spears? They can only run with heavy equipment on their own two legs, which makes it even more impossible to chase cavalry.

Even without further orders, they couldn't even move their formation, so they could only stand in place.

Before this further order comes, the next wave of blows will come first.

Dane has his own way of breaking through the dense defense.

As usual, the nightsaber cavalry went up first, the moonblades cleared the way, and then the ranger troops and crossbowmen went into battle one after another.

This round of long-range strikes would be fatal.

After the long spear array was swept by the moon blade, the powerful boomerang caused them a lot of losses. After the formation is cut, the protection of the shield is not so good, and it cannot cover every soldier.

And this also gave rangers and crossbowmen room to play.

Originally, it was not a good idea to use bows and arrows to attack heavy infantry teams with good armor. But this can at least serve as some cover to a considerable extent.

And the ones that were covered were the main force of Dane and Oze!

The heavy cavalry and wolf cavalry were in the main attack direction of the human army, and they had already swept away the demon's obstruction, and the follow-up troops advanced quite easily. After the long-range troops went crazy, Dane's excellent assault troops—the pure swordsmen group, rushed forward with two-handed swords in hand!

And it wasn't just his pure swordsmen who rushed up, the infantry of Ou Ze's main army were also quite outstanding.

These soldiers who have fought against the orc army for many years in the Beast Blood Castle are extremely tough!

The pure swordsman and the main infantry of Oze worked together, taking advantage of the nightsaber cavalry's whirling moon blade to tear a gap in the enemy's formation, and under the cover of the rangers and crossbowmen, they successfully approached Before the Regiment of Guards.

The long spear array is not so effective against the infantry, not to mention, the long spear array is still a little incomplete.

But the Guards Corps was, after all, the core force of Kang Li's subordinates. From the equipment to the quality of the soldiers, they were all serious elites. They couldn't be easily overthrown.

The tenacious resistance continued, even after Dane's sword dancers and another batch of Oze's infantry joined the battlefield, they were still strongly resisting. Many heavy infantry have thrown away the spears in their hands that are not convenient for melee combat with their opponents, and replaced them with weapons such as long swords or short axes to fight the enemy.

The situation is at a disadvantage, but after all, it has not yet formed a defeat.

Kang Li, who was sitting at the back, felt very uncomfortable watching this scene. On the one hand, he was unhappy that his guards were not standing still like a rock, and on the other hand, he was unhappy that the defeated demons could not create a good obstacle to the attack of Dane and Oze's army .

He gritted his teeth and stroked the staff in his hand. The power of darkness gathers around him, this powerful dark spellcaster is about to show his spell ability!

On the opposite side of him, Dane, who was separated by a battlefield, felt the gathering of this force.

"As expected of the powerhouse known as Schindler's number one warlock, he is very powerful."

He was praising, but in fact he had no sincerity at all. Ou Ze, who was beside him, could hear the meaning behind his words.

The white-haired sword master smiled wryly, and said, "You borrowed me here to deal with Kang Li, right?"

Dane smiled and said, "Yes, Kangli is such a great magician, I'm not sure I can kill him, and only you, the old man, can make a final decision!"

When he said this, there was an irresponsible smile on his face.

In fact, Dane is not really unsure about killing Conley. However, the difficulty of decapitating Kangli is much more difficult than dealing with other great warlocks, and I don't know how much it will cost. With Ou Ze, an official 16th-level sword master, why bother? That idea
