Chapter thirty-one fierce battle

Under the command of Vared, the undead army quickly changed its tactics. The tomb guards who could not play the three-three bayonet tactic retreated little by little, moving the front line back so that the number of undead troops, like mountains and seas, entered the battlefield faster. At the same time, two full black knight divisions began to detour to the two wings under Vared's command. It seemed that Vared decided to put these traditional, classic, and more suitable for hand-to-hand combat undead troops into the battle.

The undead army, which has adjusted its tactics, quickly reversed its decline. The manipulators who exerted their mobility jumped high like fleas, then fell from the sky, and suddenly threw the ogres super-heavy cavalry to the ground. The huge kinetic energy made the ogres unable to resist at all. Usually, if the ghost scorpion mantras do not have any attacks, they will be directly pierced by the heavy ghost scorpion mantis, whose sharp arthropods.

The ghost scorpion mantis who had just been frustrated for a while were roaring hysterically, swinging their arthropods desperately. They used their sharp steel claws as sharp as a knife to pieces. Then they turned their heads suddenly, and slashed the axe blade and sickle, spraying the rolling oil and firing the machine gun at the same time, as if they were crazy to attack the Toothed Beast who had lost their master.

The Tooth-Sheng Beast lowered his head and stabbed with his fangs. However, when he lost the huge kinetic energy brought by the impact, the Tooth-Sheng Beast's fangs could not do anything to the black iron shell of the Ghost Scorpion Man. Soon, the Tooth-Sheng Beast, who had lost his master, fell down unwillingly. The Ghost Scorpion Man, who was covered in scratches, but was not seriously injured, immediately roared, jumped into the air again, and pounced towards another target.

Thousands of ghost scorpion mantles caused bloody storms among the ogre's heavy cavalry group. The ogre's soul was scattered. Although it was not without resistance, after such metal monsters really moved, the ogres were still at a disadvantage.

"Lead Sprayer! Beast Cannon! Hurry up! Attack those big bugs that jumped!!!"

Seeing his soldiers being brutally massacred, a group of ogre men (the name of the leader of the ogre tribe) shouted at the ogre soldiers under his command - the ghost scorpion mantis who jumped into the air had a difficult direction, and it was the best target. With a burst of roar, a large number of cannons were carried up by the ogres, just like a later generation RPG, and then they suddenly spewed out large amounts of iron garbage.

Although the hit rate is very despicable, because it is a barrage attack of shotgun, there are still many garbage shotguns that really hit the ghost scorpion mantle. As for giant crossbow arrows, there is no need to rely on... But before that, the Emperor's artillery troops encountered the ghost scorpion mantle, and there was an extremely shocking solid bullet hitting the ghost scorpion mantle's shell, and it was finally unharmed. And these ogres' extremely corrosive cannons naturally cannot compare to the standard infantry cannons equipped by God, and their garbage shotguns are definitely not as good as the standard solid bullets of God's standard... Therefore, the final results can be imagined.

Large iron nails, iron sand, iron sheets... and some standard lead projectiles hit the abdomen of the Ghost Scorpion Mantle. However, they were all bounced open by the strong black iron shell. The abdomen of insects in nature may be softer than in the north, but the artificial war weapon made by the Ghost Scorpion Mantle is obviously different from it. These ammunitions with obviously insufficient lethality cannot hurt them at all.

Then, the ghost scorpion mantles rushed into the last two rows of the ogre super heavy cavalry and fought desperately with the elite ogre cavalry riding stone horned beasts. After observing these elite heavy cavalry, Vared felt that if a sufficient number of ghost scorpion mantles were not sacrificed to stop them, his army would definitely suffer heavy losses - those ordinary cavalry cavalry would be difficult to deal with, so for the stone horned beasts, it should be meaningless to dispatch troops in the ordinary sense.

In this case, the ghost scorpion mantle had to do his best to stop these stone horned beast cavalry - and the facts also proved that these guys' combat power was indeed more than the Toothed Beast. Whether it was the oil spurt or the magic flame, it was of little significance to the stone horned beasts that were almost indistinguishable from granite.

The machine gun fire can only cut a little bit of broken stone debris. The sharp arthropods grabbed the body of the stone horn beast, leaving only white marks. Even the axe-blade and sickle, which is proud of the ghost scorpion mantis, is not very lethal for the stone horn beast. Originally, one blow could cut the heavy armored sergeant and the horse into two ends, and at most it could only cut into four or five inches under the body of the stone horn beast. This kind of injury is nothing to the angry and violent stone horn beast...

Nearly a thousand ghost scorpion mantles were entangled by more than 300 stone-horned beasts, as well as a group of ogre heavy infantry, wearing iron armor, and being entangled by elite warriors who ogres called "iron stomach"...or in other words, these elite ogre warriors were entangled by them.

The battle entered a new stage. As the lines arranged by nearly 30,000 Black New Army's tomb guards were torn apart, the offensive and defensive momentum was exchanged. In terms of the undead, Vared reinvested more than ten elite divisions on the front battlefield. From the current perspective, these classic troops composed of the ancient tomb guards, the ancient tomb guards swordsmen, the ancient tomb guards heavy crossbowmen and the corpse witch, and the mixed phalanx as the combat method was a little outdated. However, they had an advantage, that is, they were large enough.

At 8 o'clock in the morning, when it was completely dawn, the second line of defense of the undead army was impacted by the ogre heavy cavalry. The super-long spear array composed of the tomb guards holding long halberds was indeed stronger than the hollow square array of the new army. Although standing in the first row, the tomb guards in the second row and even the first five rows were still inevitably trampled into scum. However, after all, after that, the fearful heavy cavalry were blocked and then lost their impact.

The most eye-catching thing in this battle are the corpse witches of the Dead Army. According to the Imperial** company arranged by Vared, these elite tomb guard companies usually have two to three corpse witches, and the average skeleton company is one... and they are usually temporarily assigned to the wartime and are not organized in normal times. After the Dead Army adopts a new mechanized production method, the proportion of corpses with spell casting ability has further decreased due to the sharp increase in the number of troops. Therefore, in many newly formed armies, this ratio has further decreased. Often, it is difficult to see a corpse witch in a regiment.

Due to the large-scale configuration of gunpowder weapons, the improvement of weapon equipment level and the large-scale enlistment of new troops. As a traditional firepower delivery unit, the status of the corpse witch in the undead army has further declined a lot. Some vampire officers even believe that as the military level of the undead army continues to improve, the corpse witch as an auxiliary army is likely to withdraw from the combat sequence of the regular army.

But, at least in this war, these conclusions have been proven to be wrong.

In dealing with ogre troops wearing heavy armor and extremely strong defense, the lethality of the usual gunpowder weapons is not very good. And ordinary weapon enchantment cannot do anything to them. In this case, auxiliary magic from corpse witches is required to appear. Strong acids, frozen, flames or electric series. These elemental killings, pale magic flames of undead witchcraft, shadow attack magic of black magic... These can effectively kill ogres and their riding beasts. If it weren't for these auxiliary magic, even the elite troops of the Undead Army would be unimaginable to block the rolling ogre heavy cavalry...

In short, after losing the power of the mobility, the ogre's super heavy cavalry is still not an easy opponent to deal with. Those ogres with great power, like their extremely terrifying riding beasts, desperately attacking the undead soldiers around them. Even the strongest black iron breastplate cannot stop the ogre's heavy battle axe, the battle knife, and the slashing of the battle knife... or rather, it is a fierce smash. Even the exquisite weapons that have been enchanted many times cannot achieve a single blow when facing the ogre's terrifying vitality.

He was covered in wounds and blood flowed. He was burned by strong acid and smoked, turned into coke by flames, frozen, and electric shocked. He became aged and exhausted because of the undead witchcraft, his muscles were atrophy and his vitality was reduced... Even in this case, the ogres with almost no good meat on his body could still roar, slash, and attack violently - to smash all the undead that were too close to him.

"What a good group of soldiers."

Seeing the ogre cavalry being stopped, Valed finally recovered from ease. From the early morning, the opponent's attacks, he has lost more than 30,000 elite soldiers, and nearly 500 ghost scorpion mantles were killed. Such losses are unprecedented. Therefore, the ogre army has received extremely high praise from Valed.

But that's all.

After blocking the opponent's cavalry, the counterattack of the undead army officially began. The black knight troops who deviated from the two wings had already taken their place. Then they charged against the ghost scorpion mantle, stone horned beast and iron stomach army that bypassed the fierce battle. After suffering from the opponent's iron spray cannon and lead sprayer's shooting, they lost many soldiers, and rushed into the ogres' wings and hit the ogres as fat as the meat mountain.
