Chapter 215: Miscellaneous Vs Regular Army (Part 1)

The Ninth and Tenth Banners are infantry, and the soldiers are equipped with slow horses. Even if they are slow horses, the distance between fifty miles will be quickly reached. Rex was angry because Daniel disrupted his deployment.

If Daniel's five hundred people died, even if Rex conquered Strambaugh, it would have an impact on morale.

This cannot be blamed on Daniel. Daniel was originally a little nobleman, who was the kind of person who was on the ground to collect money and did not know how to fight. So Salin asked Geyi to be responsible for the battle, but Salin's order was Daniel responsible for the entire army. This was a bit contradictory.

Daniel should have stopped Ge Yi from trying to be greedy for me, but Salin's words made him feel a little worried. After all, he didn't understand the war. He felt that Ge Yi was right, so he corrected Ge Yi's request.

Ge Yi's people did not fight head-on with the enemy. Soon the people searching for the city fell into the trap arranged by Ge Yi. On a narrow road, there were rocks on both sides. The barbarians were hiding among the rocks. A small team of pirates in front were riding skeleton war horses, pretending to meet the enemy by chance, then fled, leading the enemy into the ambush circle.

Daniel's undead creature Pixius was hidden in the soil. As soon as the enemy's army arrived, he came out and cast a undead magic - weak space.

Suddenly, the hundreds of cavalry and war horses were hit at the same time. Such a large-scale magic made Pius exhausted. He did not fight with the enemy in person, and turned around and ran away. How dare those soldiers chase him?

The war horses fell to the ground one after another, and many soldiers wearing metal armor were injured. Among the rocks on both sides, the barbarians jumped out, swinging huge axes and halberds horizontally, and cursing behind them with anger.

The soldiers from Strandburg were hit by axes and halberds, and even their armor was cut open, and blood was everywhere. No one's clothes were available, and Ge Yi's plan to change into the enemy's clothes failed.

No qualified soldiers, any plan is nonsense. Daniel Cofrans is on the magic chariot and does not take action. They have to save their mental power and magic strings and start fighting after entering the city. Now everything depends on two hundred barbarians.

Apart from some brain problems, the barbarians have good luck, at least they have the upper hand when facing enemies that are twice as many as they are. Because Piuss's undead magic has not yet expired, the enemy's power is less than half of its usual ones.

These hundreds of enemies are not heavy cavalry, but light cavalry. No one can run fast after losing the war horse. A piece of metal armor has become a burden for these soldiers. If they are wearing leather armor, they can compete with the barbarians.

The barbarians screamed, and at first cooperated with each other, but later they simply rushed to the middle of the enemy and slashed and killed frantically. If there were no such large-scale undead magic, at least most of these barbarians would have died. Now, except for a few who were accidentally stabbed, the rest of them relied on the advantages of their armor and rushed around.

The armor made by Salin for these barbarians was very thick and not heavy, which was most suitable for people with brute force. Even without armor, these barbarians would slash each other and rarely avoid them. Whoever is cruel will win. This kind of fighting method on the battlefield is very disadvantageous, but now the enemy is extremely weak and cannot wield heavy weapons. Only the straight stab with a sword can hurt them.

This is a very mentally retarded and effective way of fighting, with the premise that the enemy's attack power is sharply reduced. The weapons tailor-made for them can be regarded as saving them. Otherwise, if you fight with stone weapons, the enemy's metal armor will be difficult to break. The barbarians cannot compare to the Caucasians. There are many forging masters among the Caucasians who can make sharp metal weapons, but the barbarians use weapons made of obsidian. They can deal with monsters, but they can't deal with human soldiers.

I have to mention here that Salin gathered thousands of barbarians and exchanged his metal weapons for a large amount of obsidian. These obsidians were accumulated by barbarians for thousands of years, and some barbarians' weapons have been worn for more than ten generations.

Both sides were very happy, the barbarians obtained more powerful weapons, and Salin obtained precious obsidian.

Ge Yi had no choice but to let the pirates block from behind and use crossbows to harvest the enemy's lives. The pirates' shooting skills were reflected at this time, and many barbarians were shot by pirates. Fortunately, their armor was good and they were not shot to death. The injured barbarians were even more terrifying. Their eyes were blood red, and they were wielding their axes and halberds like crazy.

Ge was stunned. He admired Salin so much that he was so impressed that he had brought a lot of repair water to his team. It turned out that he had expected this result.

A mess of battle, an inexplicable victory.

After more than half an hour of fierce fighting, four hundred enemies were cut and killed before the undead magic failed. Of course, the armor on all the corpses was also rotten and could no longer be used.

Fortunately, Daniel was lucky, and four hundred infantry approached and was discovered by a flying undead he released. Ge Yi was stunned and let the pirates attack head-on.

At this time, Pixius recovered some energy and took the lead in rushing up. Pixius is an eighth-level undead. Although the magic was limited to level seven, the strength and strength of the body did not decrease much. This time, the infantry formation was reopened. Nash was also unlucky, and he did not send a magician to the army, and these infantry did not prepare in advance.

In Qin, most infantrymen also rode horses, but they were not excellent war horses. The horses of these infantry carried heavy infantry equipment, such as iron shields. If these infantry were organized and formed a three-layer iron shield for defense, Pixar could not directly attack from the beginning to the end.

There are also many sword masters in this infantry. Facing Pixius who cannot perform magic, it will definitely hurt Pixius's roots. If even a quasi-sword saint is hidden in the infantry, it may even kill Pixius. If there is a great magician, Daniel should cry.

There was no if on the battlefield, Nash's order was negligent, and the two teams came out to search, and the infantry and cavalry were separated, and they were seriously disconnected, and there was no magician to accompany them. The previous cavalry was damaged by the undead magic, and the subsequent infantry was broken out by Pixus, and then the pirates rode skeleton war horses, waved their long swords, and killed them.

Strictly speaking, even with Pixius, these pirates were not the opponent of the 400 infantrymen. After Pixius instantly killed dozens of soldiers, more than a dozen sword divisions surrounded him. One of them had a long sword hit one of Pixius' heads, scaring him so much that he rushed forward frantically and stopped cooperating with the soldiers to fight.

This Pius is a bit special. He is trapped in the Meers continental plane and it is difficult for him to return to the Undead plane. If he dies in battle, his soul will dissipate, unlike those summoned skeletons who can return to the Undead plane and resurrect them.

It was originally a tragedy for cavalry to fall into infantry. If they could not speed up, they would be strangled by infantry. Especially Qin Yin's elite infantry, they could instantly kill the stopping war horses. Each infantry has three short weapons, one of which is specifically designed to deal with war horses.

However, the pirates under Ge Yi were riding undead war horses. Metal spikes more than one foot long could not kill them at all, unless they were enchanted weapons.

But there are no enchantments from ordinary soldiers. After a brief discomfort, dozens of people have been cut down.

These pirates are not as good as Qin Yin's infantry elite, but their eyes are very good. Seeing that Pius fled, they immediately made a decision and followed Pius out of the infantry's siege. This is the instinct of pirates and there is no need to train. Ge Yi was about to cry when he saw it from a distance. Is the army he worked hard to train, which is this virtue?

But it was this kind of escape without fighting to save the pirates. The skeleton war horse would suddenly accelerate. Nash's men were not sure. They did not organize an effective interception for a while. The pirate left a few corpses and escaped. This was only happened in more than ten seconds, and Ge Yi had never given such an order.

In just over ten seconds, four pirates were killed by unprepared enemies. The pirates were also furious. They no longer dared to rush into the infantry to fight, but shot arrows from afar.

If Nash's infantry and cavalry were not out of touch, this tactic would not be applicable, but now he is facing infantry riding a low horse, and he cannot catch up with skeleton war horses at all. However, infantry is harder to shoot than cavalry. All infantry have two shields, one is an iron shield to organize position defense, and the other is a wooden shield to defend bows and arrows.

The wooden shield cannot defend against alchemy crossbows, but it still has certain defense against steel crossbows and longbows. Moreover, these infantry have very strong combat power, and only a dozen people were shot to death in the random arrows.

The infantry took out the crossbow boxes and fought back, but the range of the crossbow boxes was not as good as the steel crossbows in the hands of the pirates. During the counterattack, more than a dozen were shot to death by the pirates. In less than two minutes, the four hundred infantry lost nearly one hundred. If it were a mob, they had fled in all directions. However, the infantry of these two brigades still retreated to Strangburg under the orders of the officers, and the soldiers used wooden shields to block the attack of the crossbow arrows.

The three hundred infantry abandoned their horses and retreated on foot, orderly. After all, Strambaugh was behind them, and no matter how strong the enemy was, they dared not approach them. How could they know that the enemy in front of them were originally planning to rush into the city.

Ge Yi felt something was wrong. At first, the four hundred cavalry died very unjustly because they were strangled with the barbarians in a narrow place and were hit by the undead magic. But the infantry in front of him shocked Ge Yi's heart.

The regular army is really powerful. The pirates have shot their steel crossbows with them, replaced them with short bows, and started shooting feather arrows. Half of the pirates have no strength to shoot the bow. If this continues, these hundreds of infantry can really escape back to the city.

As a last resort, Ge Yi had to come to the place where Daniel was invisible, and the chariots were hidden in the dead grass. Ge knocked on the carriage and whispered: "Sir, the enemy cannot take it down."

Daniel was also observing the battlefield. He knew that if he didn't take action, the pirates had to retreat and let the enemy run away.
