Chapter three hundred and forty-six, fostering strengths and circumventing weaknesses

The sword and shield soldiers from both sides fought together instantly. With just one encounter, Zhou Yi's sword and shield soldiers felt as if they were going to be defeated instantly by the opponent.

Even Zhou Yi, who had been mentally prepared, couldn't help but be shocked at this moment, and then he changed the strategy of his own troops, "Stay steady! Form a shield formation, pay attention to covering each other, and advance together as a group!"

The pressure on Zhou Yi, who was commanding the battle here, increased dramatically. He was not as good at fighting as Liu Zheng. In the previous battle, he was able to deal with a kobold, but it is not yet clear how strong these werewolf warriors are.

Anyway, the weapons and armor are definitely better than those of the kobolds, and they are difficult to deal with at first glance.

"General Liu Zheng, how are you? Can you still fight?" The situation is not good at the moment, and he undoubtedly needs Liu Zheng's combat power.

"Give me some time..." The previous rounds of attacks, coupled with the battle with the enemy general Li Ke, obviously took a lot of mental and physical exertion on him. At this moment, Liu Zheng retreated to his own battle formation.

The whole person seemed out of breath, and it seemed that he needed to slow down for a while.

Zhou Yi, who realized this, quickly reassured him, "It's okay, General Liu Zheng, you need to rest first. The situation here can still be sustained."

It is true to say so, but Zhou Yi is not optimistic at all. His whole brain is running crazily at this moment. These monsters are very strong. Take them out individually, and the strength of each one is basically higher than that of their soldiers.

If he had to say that they had any weaknesses, based on what he had discovered so far, there should be three.

The first weakness is quantity. The individual strength of these monsters is indeed very strong, but the total number of troops is not as good as theirs. During the day, there were only four elephant slingers and only about 300 tauren infantry. Naturally, there is no need to say more.

, even the largest number of kobold spearmen, Zhou Yi visually estimated that there were only about seven or eight hundred at this time, so in terms of total number of troops, they obviously could not compare with them humans.

The second weakness is the equipment. Except for the werewolf warriors who look like elite troops, the kobolds basically have no armor on them, and the spears in their hands look quite worn and inferior. They cannot compete with their civilizations.

The equipment of the regular army is comparable to that of the regular army. If we insist on giving a grade to the equipment level of these kobolds, it would be the level of the peasant soldiers of the original Zhou Dynasty.

The third weakness is cooperation. From the offensive of these monsters, we can't see much cooperation. Although they maintain a formation, to be honest, their approach is to stand up in a posture at best, and then swarm towards them.

Just rushing forward.

A formation like this that is so scattered that there is not much coordination can be seen. If it is placed on a human army, it will be a ragtag crowd. It will be destroyed in minutes. But if it is placed on this group of monsters, with their outstanding individual strength, this

Helping monsters, he was stunned to suppress the well-trained regular army under his command...

Taking into account these three weaknesses of the opponent, and attacking by exploiting strengths and avoiding weaknesses, Zhou Yi estimated that two soldiers who cooperated tacitly should be able to deal with a poorly equipped kobold, but a werewolf warrior with equipment like this was almost as good as theirs.

It feels like they have to use at least four times more troops...

To be honest, even if all the archers and slingers in the Iron Wall City were to change into melee weapons and join the battle, the total strength of the city would not reach that number. In this way, we can only rely on the coordination between the types of troops and formations.

Angle is considered.

At this moment, Zhao Pan, who was the general guarding the Iron Wall City, had obviously taken this into consideration. He glanced at the entire battle and said quickly, "Zhang Lue! Bring four hundred halberdiers to support Zhou Yi!!"

"

"General, take your orders!" In the chaotic battle situation, Lieutenant General Zhang Lue responded and shouted directly, "Haberdiers, teams one to four, follow me!"

While Zhang Lue moved his position with 400 halberdiers, Zhao Pan quickly commanded the large shield soldiers and spearmen in the front row to move forward, forcibly suppressing the kobold troops on the opposite side, and providing Zhang Lue with

Cover.

The timely arrival of the four hundred halberdier soldiers was a great help to Zhou Yi. The two teams were comrades who often trained together in the army, and even participated in the previous Battle of Baima City together. At this time, they can work together

It is said that there is no trace of unfamiliarity. The sword and shield soldiers turned to the defensive, with the halberd soldiers as the main attack. After the two arms cooperated with each other, it was enough to increase their combat power to another level, plus the slightly superior force.

The advantage finally managed to stabilize the one-sided situation here.

"Zhou Yi, do you want me to do something?" After a while, Liu Zheng, who had calmed down a little, cast a questioning look at Zhou Yi. Liu Zheng has always been very clear about his positioning. In Iron Wall City,

, Zhao Pan and Zhou Yi are responsible for commanding the battle, and he is responsible for charging into the battle.

"General Liu Zheng, please continue to adjust your state, and then wait for our signal." As he spoke, Zhou Yi glanced in the direction of Zhao Pan. The two quickly exchanged glances, and then instantly understood each other's thoughts.

If the tacit understanding between Liu Zheng and Zhao Pan comes from their many years of friendship, then the tacit understanding between Zhou Yi and Zhao Pan comes from the common ideas of smart people.

"The whole army is in formation, storming formation!!" Relying on the steady advancement tactics of the 'Contradictory Combination', facing the orc army that is stronger than them, there is obviously no hope of breaking out. If the stalemate continues, they will only be defeated. In this way

In this way, Zhao Pan decisively changed his tactics and planned to break through forcefully!

The moment they heard the words 'attack formation', the soldiers who had already practiced it countless times during training did not feel much panic at this moment. Are you kidding me? Even this monster that is not human at all is scared.

Now that we have met, what else is there to be afraid of?

The large shield soldiers who were originally in the first row took the initiative to withdraw after hitting a wave of Kobolds with the large shield in their hands.

The kobolds who were attacking wildly all the way obviously couldn't understand this move of humans, but they probably didn't think much about it and just continued to attack.

The spearmen in the back row opened up their spear formations to attack without mercy. However, this was just the beginning. While the first row of spearmen opened up their spear formations, the second row of spearmen did not hesitate.

Putting the spear in his hand on the shoulder of the first row of soldiers, they went down row by row. At the moment the entire phalanx was formed, the dense and sharp spears made the entire phalanx look...

He looks like a grumpy hedgehog!

At this moment, if the Li Yuanjie opposite was a modern person with a little knowledge of military affairs, he might be able to recognize that the formation Zhao Pan put out was one of their most glorious moments in human history, and was dubbed invincible in the hands of Alexander the Great.

The famous Macedonian Phalanx!
