The dozens of carts were tightly connected with each other with iron chains and formed a large circle on the plain. The archers, spearmen and sword and shield infantry huddled in the carts, using the armor of the carts to protect themselves from the enemy.
Damage. Once the enemy approaches, they will stand up and kill the enemy.
In the eyes of the soldiers of the Pirate Kingdom, it was like a small fortress suddenly rising up on the plains. They suffered the loss of this car array and stopped at a distance.
Duke Otto was riding a horse, watching the formation of the Pirate Kingdom, and at the same time kept shouting in his heart: "Did you see it? Triumphant, this is my last trump card! If you want my life, just step over the car."
Come get it!"
But this courage only lasted for a moment. Ella walked out of the line on horseback. At that moment, Duke Otto subconsciously climbed down from the horse and hid behind the cart shivering.
He was really frightened by Ella. Through the gap between the carts, he secretly observed the battlefield like a mouse.
Ella is still approaching. Duke Otto's face is ashen. He knows his car formation best. As long as he is an "elf-level" Ares protector, he can easily open a big hole in the car formation.
Previously, when Duke Otto encountered such an enemy, he used his magic to change the opponent's protective attributes to compete. But even if he had 10,000 courages now, he would not dare to walk in front of the "Triumpher" and cast it.
His magic!
At this moment, he was like a prisoner being sent to the guillotine, waiting desperately for the blade to fall.
But Ella did not use magic to attack the cart, nor did she give any instructions to attack the cart. After looking at the cart from left to right, she suddenly turned her horse around and led the soldiers back.
"Go...go?"
Duke Otto seems to have been granted a general amnesty.
"Is my previous guess right? The Triumphant himself really doesn't know magic?"
Duke Otto was overjoyed and mounted his horse and shouted at the soldiers of the Pirate Kingdom: "Come on! Come on! Why are you running? Coward! Come and attack if you have the ability!"
As if she hadn't heard anything, Ella led the soldiers back from the battlefield for a distance until they were close to a forest. Then, she actually asked the army to set up camp in front of Duke Otto!
Duke Otto had never seen someone camp on the battlefield during a battle between the two armies. He was stunned for a moment. After a while, he finally realized: "Asshole! You can't see us so clearly! Cavalry, follow.
I attack!"
The cart moved, slowly opening a hole, and Duke Otto personally led a group of cavalry to rush out. Half of Ella's troops were camping, and the other half were on defense in the front. Even so, the defensive forces were
The number of soldiers was also much greater than that of Duke Otto's cavalry. However, those cavalry were obviously timid because they did not have the support of infantry.
"Don't be afraid! Although there are many of them, they are of no use!"
Duke Otto loudly encouraged the cavalry around him. After realizing that Ella did not know magic, he became more courageous and completely ignored the five hundred infantry. He first led the cavalry around to the enemy's left flank
, mobilized the enemy's phalanx to turn to the left, and after seizing the opportunity, suddenly changed direction and rushed to the right. Ella had no experience in commanding formation combat. After Duke Otto changed direction several times, the Pirate Kingdom's formation was in disarray.
confusion!
Using the mobility of the cavalry, Duke Otto successfully bypassed the enemy troops on the front line, and then rushed at full speed towards the enemy troops camping in the rear!
Unexpectedly, the pirates who were camping suddenly took out throwing axes from their waists, and the pirates left behind by Duke Otto also made the same move. Duke Otto was shocked, and before he could give the order, he counted
Hundreds of flying axes flew towards Duke Otto's cavalry from both sides!
For a moment, the screams of people and the roar of horses rang out like an explosion. The morale of the cavalry suddenly collapsed. Before Duke Otto could give the order, the remaining cavalry ran towards the car formation as if they were running for their lives.
Ran back!
The pirates repelled Duke Otto's harassment and continued to camp in front of the woods.
Duke Otto ran back to the car formation, unable to do anything to the pirates who were camping. This thing is extremely ridiculous to say, but if he also mobilized the infantry to attack the pirate kingdom, then the car formation he had finally set up would be completely in chaos. The enemy would be in chaos.
It was much faster to gather together from the encamped state than to restore the car formation to the status quo. The pirate kingdom's infantry combat capability is stronger than that of the Alemannic Federation. Without the protection of the car formation, Duke Otto's troops are almost certain to be defeated.
.
After standing there like this for a long time, Ella's camp has begun to take shape. And Duke Otto can't even retreat - if he retreats here, Ella will definitely launch a pursuit. At this distance, he also
There is no chance to arrange the car formation again.
As a last resort, Duke Otto had no choice but to issue an order similar to Ella's: "Build a camp based on the car array and camp on the spot!"
Although there is a risk of being attacked by Minden's rebels and Aila's troops when camping here, Minden's rebels are just a ragtag group, and even if they come, they will not have much impact on the battle situation. As long as they can hold the camp, wait for Weiss
As soon as Terfalon's reinforcements arrived, the situation on the battlefield reversed.
Duke Otto has absolute confidence in the defensive capabilities of the car array. After all, his car array is called a "movable city wall." If coupled with the fortifications of the camp, it is no different from a small fortress.
So the soldiers from the two sides began to camp face to face with each other.
Many days passed, and Duke Tuo's camp became stronger day by day. In contrast, Ella's camp only had a few simple fortifications from beginning to end.
Duke Otto saw that Ella's soldiers went into the woods to cut trees every day, but there was no change in the camp, and he couldn't help but become suspicious. One night, he asked a few soldiers to quietly approach Ella's troops to see what they were doing.
These soldiers returned successfully and brought back a report that surprised Duke Otto: soldiers from the Pirate Kingdom were building a large catapult in a hidden location!
"Catapults? Why do they build such things? There are no walls here!"
The soldiers said nothing, but silently pointed at Duke Otto's cart.
Duke Otto choked angrily: "This... this is indeed called a 'movable city wall', but that's just a nickname! Its essence is still a transport vehicle! A transport vehicle! What virtue can it have?
Will the victor hit me with a catapult?"
Duke Otto had never seen a catapult built on the spot in a field battle. But then again, how many things did the "triumpher" do that he had seen?
He had to put the catapult on the agenda to attack Ella.
