The nobles in the north are countless, but Victor Hugo’s main force is heavy infantry. Moreover, the infantry of his family is not the same as that of other families.
After the aristocracy was eliminated and personal attachment was lifted, the base of the soldiers in Coldwind City suddenly increased. Others use slaves as infantry, and Coldwind City uses freemen as infantry.
Other people's free men need to bring their own dry food, their own weapons, and make money from battlefield looting. All the food and drink Lazards of the infantry in Coldwind City are counted as Lord Lord, and there are monthly allowances, and they can climb up by military exploits.
The result is that the infantry regiment of Coldwind City has a strong fighting enthusiasm. As long as you can gain military exploits, you can not only make money, but you can also change your destiny.
Even if he died, the lord would give him a pity.
In terms of system, Coldwind City can explode ten streets of other northern lords.
In addition, in Coldwind City, the price of ironware is only one-tenth of the price elsewhere. But the price of horses is hard to come down. The cost of raising one cavalry can raise five infantry, and the difference in consumption between the two is too great.
War is fighting for consumption, the soldiers fighting for Coldwind City. Zhou Qingfeng defeated five hundred infantrymen, and he could easily train another five hundred, five thousand.
Horses are not easy to handle, and there is no way to give birth to a dozen in a litter like a sow. There is no two or three years, a warhorse is not well trained.
But just a shallow pit on the battlefield is enough for a horse to stray and scrap a hard-earned horse. The horses of Coldwind City are generally transported by the light cavalry and logistics who are investigating and harassing, and will never be used to rush into battle.
Hearing the sound of military drums in the night breeze, the nobles in Broken Bridge City who were trapped in the wild village were all shocked. Humans lack night vision, and night attack is a very difficult combat mode.
But if the night attack is well played, it will be invincible-when the dynasty started, if you wanted a gun without a gun, you wanted a gun without a gun, you depended on resolute and brave melee night combat to grow and develop.
The fast-paced snare drum became clearer and clearer, but Kyle Holden calmed down. He called a few cronies and asked to ride horses to look at the situation outside the village, and at the same time ordered other personnel to build roadblocks based on horses to resist the upcoming attack.
"Don't be afraid, this may be harassment." City Lord Holden still insisted on his own opinion. "The enemy only has more than a hundred cavalry. They don't want to take advantage of us."
More troops is indeed a good thing, and it is natural to deal with it more calmly. The more than two hundred knights in Broken Bridge City can fight without riding a horse. It should be no problem to defend a small village.
But 500 meters away from the village, heavy-duty carriages drove into the battlefield. A carriage transports six infantrymen, including their equipment and supplies.
In the carriage, the soldiers put on the armor and helmets in cooperation with each other, and checked their equipment. They are equipped with three-meter long spears. Steel spear head, half-meter long holster, three-meter long hardwood shaft.
Each spear is heavy, about five kilograms, and very heavy.
It's already difficult for this weight to use any tricks, but Zhou Qingfeng never expects his infantry to engage in fancy tactics. They actually practiced one trick-lining up in a dense formation and stabs.
The current infantry regiment in Coldwind City is small, with only 500 people in the regiment. There are only more than four hundred combat personnel. Apart from the logistics and transportation personnel, the most important thing is the military band.
Before the armored soldiers enter the battlefield, they pour stamina potions and night vision potions. The officer commanded the military band, and everyone lined up on the drums, moving forward slowly.
Outside the village in the dark, Mahan, who commanded the infantry, carried his iconic aluminum shield on his back, and took the initiative to stand at the forefront of the team.
Zhou Qingfeng led the cavalry as the infantry lined up to cover the enemy's small-scale temptations and prevent the enemy from harassing him.
Seeing Ma Han’s actions, he had to shout to the messenger: "Go tell Ma Han, what I want is a commander, not a big soldier. He is the commander-in-chief of the whole regiment and stays where he should be. position."
In the previous capture of Coldwind City, the infantry regiment hurriedly hurried to no effect. Facing a powerful enemy tonight, it is precisely its light flashing to announce to the world that it is an important battle.
Just think about how you can bring this powerful infantry into the enemy line, behead the flag, and add glory, every muscle of Mahan's excitement is shaking with excitement.
But Uncle Zhou was stunned that he sent someone to curse Mahan, forcing him to go back to the heavy infantry line in despair. The matter of blood rush has nothing to do with the senior commander.
In the unnamed village, the knights of Broken Bridge drove the hungry villagers to strengthen their defenses. The only stone mill in the village was pushed to the intersection and piled with the planks of the demolished house.
The masters used horse whips and riding boots to kick, cursing the villagers for being too lazy.
Under the shining of the torch, City Lord Kyle Holden ignored the atrocities of his subordinates and stared at the dark darkness with a cold face.
The entourage wizard released the secret magic eye, and the guard post guarding the periphery was fleeing back in a hurry, and the confidant Zheng Khan Jinjin who had gone to investigate reported.
Putting all the information together, none is pleasant. Especially the trusted knights who went to investigate on the spot almost came back, "Your Excellency, there is an army of hundreds of people coming out."
Hundreds
Two hundred is also counted as'hundreds', and nine hundred is even counted as'hundreds'. There is a big difference between two hundred and nine hundred!
How many hundreds of probes are there
The snare drum in the dark night became louder and louder, and it got closer and closer. There is indeed an army that cannot be underestimated advancing in the dark.
Under tension, the simple but neat drum sounds sounded like the ground shaking. Gradually, he could hear the sonorous and commands of the start and stop, which made the heart beat.
It's not easy to come out of such a gait!
"Your Excellency Holden, there is a group of infantry outside, at least more than three hundred in number." The wizard's secret eyes are floating in the air, which can be more calm and clear.
The image projected by the Secret Magic Eye is dark and the light is very dim, and you can only vaguely see the crowds of enemies rushing in. They have a neat queue and unified actions, which represents long-term training and extremely high command capabilities.
infantry
Kyle Holden's head was rumbling, and he realized that he had indeed fallen into the trap. The opponent seized the fleeting warplane, lured him out with cavalry, and attacked him with infantry.
Coming so fast!
The knights of Broken Bridge were maneuvering throughout the day, and it was impossible to be caught by a group of infantry. If the situation on the battlefield is found to be wrong, Kyle Holden will lose a batch of horses and his subordinates will quickly fled back to the city.
This infantry must be hidden in Green Valley Town, and only set off after dark, and forced the army to kill in a short period of time. This is not only a matter of fast marching speed, but also extremely high demands on command and liaison morale.
"Sack, Sack." Your Lord of the City shouted loudly.
A tall, burly man came out with an axe, his face full of scars was very scary in the dark night. Hearing the call, he answered with an urn voice: "Master, what do I need to do?"
"Take my guard to rush out and drive out the infantry outside. They can't be easily deployed." Kyle Holden felt dry, and he was really anxious.
Ordinary serf soldiers could not march in the dark, and did not even have the courage to go out at night. The hundreds of infantry soldiers who can suddenly kill are not overestimated in strength.
The brawny scared man responded again, and after a while, he pulled out an elite guard of more than twenty men. Everyone has heavy armor and heavy weapons, and even the mounts are tall and powerful, which is a typical rushing heavy horse.
The task of this heavy rider is to force an impact!
