Chapter 310 A Greatly Defeated War of Extermination
The 188 Magician Team was hesitating when a group of scouts suddenly ran up from the upper reaches of the river. After questioning, they found out that they were the reconnaissance team of the 163rd Division.
b?i?q?u?g?
The 163rd Division brought many large-scale defense equipment. Although they rushed all the way to Tianmen Town, their actions were still slow. Some of them believed that the beast tide was not that critical.
"We are rushing to build a pontoon bridge ten miles upstream. It is estimated to have been completed by this time. You magicians can cross the river from there." The reconnaissance team leader suggested.
Taking a ten-mile detour to cross the river would take up to half an hour, so the magician team finally chose to act together.
The 91st division with the largest number of knights only had one fire-wielding magician. In the later period, Shao Diancang, the division leader of the fearless knights, only used the magician as a scout. He believed that his troops would face an enemy with a magician.
It can also be wiped out quickly.
There was a lot of water on the ground and the road was very muddy. The cavalry of the 91st Division still showed excellent riding skills and forcibly approached the ice-horned snow cattle rushing from Tianmen Town, even at the expense of a lot of physical strength.
"Report, sir, there are traces of monsters, ten miles in front of our troops, and they are running towards our troops." The scout spotted the ice-horned snow ox.
"Explore again." Shao Diancang reined in the horse, "The whole army stopped advancing, and the forwards and rearguards moved closer to the Chinese army. Staff, bring the map."
Shaodian's army has not yet experienced fighting in the wild with the Ice Horned Snow Oxen. Shaodian Cang is very heroic during the war and should be cautious when facing the enemy.
"We are going to basically open flat land. News of the beast tide has just begun, and all the fields have basically been harvested. Except for the rainy weather, everything else is suitable for our troops to fight." The staff officer simply summarized the intelligence.
"According to the scout's observation, the ice horned snow cattle can still advance at high speeds in this environment. They are obviously more adaptable than us and cannot confront them head-on." Shao Diancang carefully looked at the map, "The third brigade is responsible for attracting the cattle.
hatred;
The first brigade acted as the main attack, attacking the cattle from the side;
The 7th Battalion responded behind the 1st Battalion;
The ninth and tenth brigade are responsible for cutting off the retreat of the cattle;
Second, the fifth brigade outflanked the two wings and pursued the escaping monsters;
The rest of the team will work with me to handle the overall situation."
Shaodian Cang invested 7,000 men at one time to deal with thousands of ice-horned snow oxen, and paid sufficient attention to strategy and tactics.
He led the reserve team to a high ground near the scheduled battlefield. It was still raining and the vision was a bit blurry. From the high ground, he could still observe the general situation of the battlefield.
The ice-horned snow cows are all white, so they are very easy to recognize. Led by a larger head cow, more than a thousand ice-horned snow cows are heading in the opposite direction to the Hengduan Mountains.
Two to three hundred human cavalry shouted loudly and approached the cattle. From time to time they shot flaming arrows, which quickly angered the leading cow. The cattle slightly deviated from the direction of advancement and chased the human soldiers.
The cavalry of these three squadrons quickly joined up with the main team of the third group. The third group threw some dry food that the ice horned snow cattle liked to eat and quickly fled, taking the cattle to the ambush pen.
The speed of the herd was a little faster than that of the human cavalry, and they slowly caught up with the third group. Seeing that they were about to catch up with these hateful humans who were bringing delicious food, the eyes of the Icehorn Snow Cow began to turn red.
At this time, another group of human cavalry inserted themselves diagonally into the ground and charged straight into the waist of the cattle.
The first brigade of the 91st Division is all composed of knights above the Blade Knight. Most of the soldiers are from the Shaodian clan. It is one of the most elite brigade of the 10th Legion. They form a cavalry formation in small groups. As long as they get close,
The herd of cattle can produce sharp spear lights.
"Moo!" the cow yelled. Sensing the danger of the first group, it turned around and rushed towards the first group. The herd also turned urgently, without overshooting and greatly reducing its speed.
Captain Wushang of the First Battalion shouted: "Come on, come on! Get close to the cattle fifty meters and shoot out the gun!"
One hundred cone-shaped squads formed a large triangular charge formation. Mud and water splashed everywhere on the ground, and the human cavalry advanced through the water, charging unstoppably towards the cattle.
Five hundred meters, four hundred meters.
Two hundred meters, one hundred meters.
The few Wushang who were lined up on the arrow held up their red knight's spear and were ready to take the lead in attacking the cattle.
At this moment, a giant frog suddenly appeared on the back of the leading cow.
Thunder Frog Alpha Beast.
The Thunder Frog and the Ice-horned Snow Cow are good friends. They can prey on the bugs on the Ice-horned Snow Cow. The two groups often stay together. Of course, when high-level monsters prey on the Ice-horned Snow Cow, they will also eat the Thunder Frog as a snack.
Lose.
With a "croak", Shaodian Wushang heard a loud noise in his ears, which shook his whole body. The horse he was sitting on lost control and slipped on the muddy ground.
The formation of the knights lined up on the arrow was disrupted.
Thunder Frogs appeared one after another on the back of the ice-horned snow cow that rushed ahead.
"Quack", "quack", "quack", huge frog sounds came and went.
The charging human cavalry were affected to varying degrees, resulting in the same result. No team was able to shoot out their spears.
When Shaodian Wushang came to his senses, he tried hard to control his horses and adjust his formation, but he was already very close to the cow.
"call"
A stream of white gas spurted towards Shaodian Wushang.
The Ice Horned Snow Cow and the Snow Demon Wolf also know the art of ice carving, and they can spray it when they are close.
"Hey!" Shaodian Wushang, the shield-breaking knight, yelled, firing up his spear, and shooting out his own spear light to resist the ice sculpture technique.
He blocked it, but his mount couldn't bear it and was hit by the edge of the white air. His forelimbs suddenly stiffened and his speed immediately dropped.
Shaodian Wushang had experienced hundreds of battles, and he had already figured this out. After firing out his spear, he stabbed it towards the ground, and he pressed the tail of the spear hard to use the force to flip up in the air.
The cow lowered its head and pushed hard, knocking Shaodian's harmless mount away, and the knight following him was knocked over. The time was too short, and the people behind him could not react at all.
The two high-charging teams collided, and all the ice-horned snow cows spurted out white air, and the human cavalry were knocked upside down. Only the shield-breaking knights could shoot out their spears and resist the ice sculpture technique, but their mounts were knocked away without exception.
.
The shield-breaking knights flying in the air were not safe. Thunder Frog's water arrow hit them. Fortunately, Thunder Frog's water arrow was not powerful enough. The armor on their bodies was enough to prevent the water arrow, but they were hit high in the air.
A little bit.
These well-trained elites barely pulled out their swords in the air, and some of the quickest ones still held spears in their hands. With the weapons in hand, they had the power to protect themselves.
The sixty cavalry formations in front of the big triangle were basically destroyed. Only the shield-breaking knights survived, and the others were seriously injured. The forty cavalry formations in the last row were prepared to avoid the powerful bull head in front of them.
The gun light cleared the way and rushed towards both sides.
The first brigade had a strong fighting force. Even though they were caught off guard, more than 500 people rushed out from both sides of the herd. If an ordinary cavalry brigade encountered them, the whole army would probably be annihilated.
The captain of the 7th Brigade was shocked, but he was not afraid of the battle. "Every team, be careful of the attack of the Thunder Frog. Give me all your strength to break up the cattle." He took the lead and led the 7th Brigade to charge towards the cattle.
"Oops, there are two level four alpha beasts." Cui Daoyuan, the only magician of the 91st Division, quickly descended back to the ground. "Master, division commander, the combat power below level four cannot deal with the leading ice-horned snow ox."
Shao Diancang made a gesture to his own soldier captain, "Shao Dianben, you lead the squad of soldiers to collect a cow. The Eighth Brigade will go to support and ask the First Battalion to withdraw."
Shaodian Ben is a fearless knight in the early stage. He has fighting spirit armor to protect his body, and the attack of the thundering frog leader beast can be ignored.
On the battlefield, the Seventh Brigade collided with a herd of cattle. The captain of the Seventh Brigade was unable to do anything to the leader of the Ice Horned Snow Ox. The team he led was still scattered, but most of them survived.
The knight brigade of the 91st Division was not a soft persimmon. It could not withstand the level four monsters and was still lethal to other ice-horned snow cattle. After the two cavalry brigade took turns to charge, the size of the herd was reduced by half.
The ninth and tenth brigade cut off the retreat of the cattle and were catching up from behind; the second brigade was on the left and the fifth brigade was on the right, completing the encirclement of the herd; the eighth brigade followed closely behind a small group.
From behind, he charged the cattle head-on for the third time.
Shaodian Ben attacked the cow with a spear a hundred meters away. After he got close to the cow, he shot it away with a powerful shot, piercing the herd with unstoppable momentum. The Eighth Battalion followed closely.
Later, he successfully dispersed the entire herd in one fell swoop.
The second and fifth brigades that came up from both sides threw fishing nets and trip ropes, completely slowing down the running speed of the cattle.
The 9th and 10th Brigades took the opportunity to catch up, each detached half of their troops, charged from behind the herd, and killed the ice-horned snow cows that fled in panic on the spot.
A little more than a thousand ice-horned snow oxen and more than a hundred thundering frogs were surrounded by a large number of cavalry. After the death of the first ox and the first frog, it only took three sticks of incense to completely wipe them out.
Although the 91st Division successfully annihilated these monsters that broke through Tianmen Town's defense line, the losses of the 1st and 7th Battalions made Shao Diancang not happy at all. They had a numerical advantage of nearly ten to one, and in their preset
On the battlefield, the casualty ratio with the Warcraft was actually one to two, which was considered a huge defeat for the Tenth Legion.
A middle-aged man with black hair was leisurely watching the 91st Division clean up the battlefield underneath the battlefield where humans and cattle were fighting, and he murmured something: "I really want to destroy this division."
What nonsense, the three ace legions of the Shaodian Kingdom are vulnerable to my elites. It’s a pity, if I make a move, I will be discovered. Now is not the time to quarrel with the Shaodian clan, I will bear it.”
If Wu Huo's tactics can be implemented, and if the 91st Division has enough magicians to suppress the formation, they can annihilate this group of ice horned snow cows at the cost of dozens of injuries at most. Shao Diancang suffered a loss because he did not understand the enemy's situation and his team
Still have no regrets about the title of Shaodian King’s Ace Legion.
Not long after the 91st Division wiped out the herd, Tianmen Town also defeated the third wave of beasts.
