chi chi...
A strange sound of cutting metal, with a tooth-like feeling, makes people extremely uncomfortable to listen to, but this sound passes quickly, forming a kind of piercing and rapid cutting The sound of a piece of cloth.
All in all, it's a complex sound.
However, when the sound ended, the advancing heavy infantry stopped, and the eyes of the soldiers in the front row suddenly became extremely frightened, as if they had seen a ghost in broad daylight, and their eyeballs were about to bulge Come out, and their eyeballs are still covered with bloodshot eyes.
They intuitively felt that their bodies seemed to be different, as if they had lost something, but they couldn't remember what was lost for a while.
Immediately afterwards, they all suddenly felt their bodies lighten, and fell forward, but when they fell, they remained in place from the waist down.
What they fell out was only the upper half.
ah... ah...
The sharp screams resounded through the entire city gate, like a ghost, howling hysterically, wanting to release all the breath of life.
When the two moon blades went out, eight of the ten soldiers lined up in the first row were directly cut in half, and the other two were just in the area missed by the moon blades, so they were spared.
However, there are only two soldiers left in a row of ten, and this heavy infantry formation has completely lost its effect.
Especially the heart-piercing howls of the soldiers who had been cut in half on the ground, they had completely lost their motivation to fight, and several soldiers became incontinent immediately.
The vast majority of soldiers go to the battlefield to fight, thinking about how to reap the lives of the enemy and achieve their own glory, and rarely think that they will be killed.
But when that kind of extremely tragic death appeared in front of them, their nerves would often collapse.
Cutting in half is known as one of the cruelest punishments in ancient times. The person who was cut in half, because the vital organs of the person are in the upper body, although the lower body is missing, they will still be conscious, and it will take a long time before they die.
The sound of a criminal with a severed waist howling on the execution ground is enough to leave a permanent shadow in anyone's heart, and if they know that they will be cut in half next, many of them will directly faint or have a nervous breakdown.
Generally on the battlefield, although the battle is fierce, there are not many cases of such a cut in half.
As hoplites, the possibility of being cut in half is even lower, because they have thick armor and heavy shields. Even a powerful fighter wants to cut down a hoplite at the waist. difficult things.
Although it is very difficult for fighters to do this, the blade chariot of the elves can do it.
The armor of the heavy infantry is very thick, but it is only compared to the light infantry. If it is true that all the armor is made of iron, then few of them can move on the battlefield.
Their shields are very strong, but they are not completely iron shields. If such a large and thick shield is all made of iron, it will weigh as much as three or four hundred catties. Even if a strong man can carry such a shield shield, but how to fight? It was very difficult to move.
The shields of the hoplites are actually wooden, but the surface is inlaid with enough iron sheets and copper nails, and it is difficult for conventional weapons to break through.
However, the bladed vehicles of the elves are not conventional weapons.
The two moon blades completely smashed through the first row of heavy infantry, and the remaining power remained unabated. They were directly embedded in the waists of the second row of soldiers. Although these soldiers were not completely cut in half, they were cut in half, which was even more painful. Howling on the ground.
But before they came back to their senses, the orc infantry quickly moved the two bladed carts away from both sides, and the two rear bladed carts loaded with moon blades were carried out.
chi chi...
Two moon blades shot out again, so two rows of heavy infantry were cut in half again.
After these two moon blades, in less than three seconds, the two blade carts in the third row were carried out again and attacked again.
Xiao Yu sent a total of six blade chariots here at the gate of the city. Two of them formed a row, and the three rows were wound up and launched in turn. Keep up and continue to strike. In this case, a rapid and intensive heavy firepower strike will be formed.
The heavy infantry only felt countless silver plates flying over, cutting them into two halves of various shapes, and various internal organs flowed out and scattered all over the ground.
At this point, the heavy equipment infantry had completely lost their fighting spirit. It seemed that they had no other way out except for death under such intensive heavy firepower.
The cross-section of the Moonblade was too large, and the city gate was originally small, so they had nowhere to hide, and the armor and shields couldn't defend them, so they could only scream in horror and retreat quickly.
Originally, their magician could pose a threat to the blade car, but the magician also needs the infantry in front to resist before he can release magic.
But now the infantry in front fell down row by row, and it was about to be his turn. How could he have the heart to chant magic.
Now, these hoplites have only one mind, retreat quickly, stay away from here, stay away from this terrifying weapon, this kind of weapon does not belong to this world at all, it should belong to hell.
"If you want to run, it's not that easy." Xiao Yu looked at the hoplite formations that had completely collapsed after seeing each other from the top of the city, with a satisfied smile on his face.
A weapon like the Moonblade is really fucking awesome.
"Catapults, get ready, focus fire and shoot." Xiao Yu waved his hand, and after adjusting the firing distance, the ten catapults on the top of the city smashed towards the heavy infantry in front of the city gate.
The heavy infantry can defend against sword attacks, but a stone of tens of kilograms falling from more than ten meters, even if wearing a helmet, can smash the helmet, even if holding a shield to resist, I am afraid that it can directly break the arm.
bang bang bang...
Countless stones were smashed down, and those heavy infantry behind who had not yet entered the city gate suddenly became living targets. The dense formation made it even more difficult for them to dodge and resist. Fall down and never get up again.
A stone fell freely from a distance of more than ten meters. Even if they were very strong, they would definitely not be able to stop it.
There is no way out, and there are chasing soldiers in front. These heavy infantry formations that thought they could wipe out the orc infantry in one fell swoop, but at this time, they have no way to enter the sky and no way to enter the earth.
If their formation is really facing the orc infantry, it may really cause huge damage to the orc soldiers. However, Xiao Yu is not a fool either, how could he not understand the characteristics of the hoplites.
Although the orc infantry has now reached level 3, and many have reached level 4, it is still very difficult to destroy this kind of heavy infantry formation. No matter how powerful their big axes are, it is difficult to completely smash through a row of iron walls .
Because ten people form one body, the defense power formed is definitely not as simple as ten ones, just like one chopstick is easy to break, but ten chopsticks are difficult to break.
This is exactly the reason for the heavy infantry formation.
Therefore, if the Spartan method is still used to deal with these heavy infantry formations like last time, the orc infantry will inevitably suffer heavy losses.
It's just that Xiao Yu, who deeply understands the principle of the division of arms, never planned to let the orc infantry fight against their heavy infantry formation from the very beginning. You know you're going to suffer, but who will fight you head-on
If it is against a single heavy infantry, there is no problem. No matter how thick the armor is, the orc infantry can still kill the opponent with absolute strength. However, the heavy infantry formation will not work. Orcs are indeed an absolute weakness when it comes to cooperating with formations.
Therefore, from the very beginning, Xiao Yu had no intention of letting the orc infantry to challenge the opponent's heavy infantry formation. In the previous Warcraft games, the fight was to restrain each other's arms, and to attack the opponent with arms that the opponent could not restrain.
Originally, it was indeed very difficult to deal with heavy infantry, because this kind of iron wall-like advancing attack can only be blasted by a heavy fire attack like the magician's magic.
But now Xiao Yu only has a Mage-type hero like the Great Mage, and he is still an Ice Mage, who practices Cone of Ice, not the Fire-type spell that is good at breaking through explosions.
At this time, the appearance of the blade cart and the catapult just solved the problem of Xiao Yuzhong's lack of firepower. As long as the troops are against each other, even if the strength of the troops differs by several times, they can still win. This was Xiao Yu's best competitive method in the past.
"The first group, prepare, shoot, the second group, prepare, shoot..." After the catapult smashed the heavy infantry into pieces, Xiao Yu immediately ordered the musketeers gathered near the city gate to start shooting .
Xiao Yu divided the musketeers into four groups, with twenty-five people in one group, and the four groups took turns shooting with almost no time interval. Although they didn't have the firepower of the machine guns in the previous life, they still achieved the same effect.
The armor of the heavy infantry is very thick, and some places can prevent the shooting of muskets, but some places are weak and cannot prevent the shooting of muskets.
This kind of intensive random fire of muskets often hits the weak points of these heavy infantry, causing damage.
Blade carts, catapults, plus dwarf musketeers, three types of long-range heavy firepower, directly defeated Karoo's heavy infantry formation.
"Cut, it's so boring, you dare to provoke me with such little ability."
Xiao Yu sat on the rocking chair, continued to drink the red wine, squinted her eyes, and showed her usual treacherous and despicable smile.
