However, even so, it is already a very good result for Hawk Nose and Black Dragon Guard.
Regardless of whether he stayed where he was or ordered to retreat, the casualties paid by this round of boulders were absolutely devastating.
Although only half of it is left now, it still retains its basic combat effectiveness. With the Black Dragon Guard's excellent combat capabilities, there is no chance of a comeback.
"Brothers, follow me and keep charging up. As long as we go up, we will win!"
The black hawk's hook-nosed man waved his saber and roared out orders, then took the lead and continued to rush upward.
The Black Dragon Guard behind him also followed closely with howl.
Under such circumstances, they were still able to maintain a stable formation and organize an effective counterattack in a short period of time. It is not difficult to see that the Black Dragon Guard is indeed an elite force!
"It seems like this commander is a bit interesting."
Little Santo, who was watching all this silently from above the valley, raised a cold smile and snorted, "It's a pity that I followed the wrong person. I hope I can make the right choice in my next life."
After saying that, little Santo waved his hand suddenly, "Javeliner, attack as originally planned!"
Following an order, thousands of ambush soldiers from the tribal alliance suddenly jumped up from the ground. Each of them held a hardwood javelin with an iron tip in his hand, and the entire queue quickly marched to the designated position.
Immediately, the people in the first row took the lead in throwing a row of javelins into the valley.
Immediately there was a scream.
About five seconds later, the javelin throwers in the second row stepped forward and at the same time threw their javelins toward the valley.
The rest of the javelin throwers will do the same, and every five seconds a row of javelins will be thrown out.
Weapons such as javelins are long-range weapons just like bows and crossbows.
The reason why they do not appear as frequently as crossbows on the battlefield is because the projection of javelins relies entirely on human strength, so their accuracy and range are very limited.
In addition, javelins are not as small and easy to carry as arrows, so javelin soldiers only appear on the battlefield in a few cases.
But this does not mean that the javelin is useless. On the contrary, under certain special circumstances, the destructive power produced by the javelin is far beyond the reach of conventional long-range weapons such as crossbows!
For example, in this condescending situation, under the premise of occupying the absolute commanding heights, there is no need for range at all.
Even the accuracy can be ignored, because steep slopes are the best sights.
Once the javelin flies out from above, it will plunge diagonally down at an extremely high speed along the arc of the slope.
At this time, the javelin can maximize its terrifying destructive power!
A javelin is many times heavier than an arrow. From the formula that the impact force is equal to the speed multiplied by the weight of the object, it can be concluded that the puncture force of the javelin on the object is far beyond the reach of the arrow!
When the enemies are so dense, it is easy for a javelin to pierce two people at the same time. Not only that, if you are lucky, it is not impossible for a javelin to pierce three, four, or even five enemies in a row.
thing.
In addition, the javelin also has another characteristic, which is that it can cause maximum psychological shock to the enemy.
If the enemy is killed by arrows, even if the number of enemies killed is the same, because the arrows themselves are small, they will not cause much visual impact.
But the javelin is different. As long as the target is hit, it is almost always nailed to the ground directly. The visual shock is not comparable to that of arrows.
"Don't be afraid, everyone, don't stop, follow me and keep moving forward!"
Hook-nosed is indeed an experienced and calm general. He knows that as long as his morale collapses at this time, everything will be completely over.
His words greatly boosted the morale of the Black Dragon Guard, and everyone continued to grit their teeth and rush upward.
At this time, the hooked nose still did not give up, because he made the most correct judgment in the shortest time.
Judging from the time, this ambush force must have made a rapid march at almost extreme speed to get here.
This is destined that they will not have too many people, let alone carry too many supplies, so the javelins will never be endless, there will always be a limit.
Hook Nose's judgment was very accurate. After throwing the javelin for more than twenty rounds, there was indeed no movement.
But unfortunately, he met little Santo today.
Little Santo was born weak and destined to have little success in martial arts, but his ambition did not allow him to be mediocre.
Therefore, he devoted all his energy to resourcefulness. He was familiar with all kinds of military tactics, and all kinds of strategies were like playthings in the palm of his hand.
He can lie dormant for more than ten years and lay out a seamless plan, so naturally he will not miss any detail on the battlefield.
He even calculated every link accurately, and it was just a script that had been rehearsed in little Santo's mind.
After throwing the javelin, the Black Dragon Guard was very close to the top of the valley and entered a relatively gentle slope.
Hook Nose's spirit was lifted. As long as he passed the steepest part of the terrain, the chance of a comeback would increase several times!
"Brothers, rush over with me and avenge our dead brothers!"
Hook-nosed took the lead and led the Black Dragon Guard, preparing to rush into the opponent's war and engage in the close combat they were best at.
However, how could little Santo give him such an opportunity? After smiling coldly, he suddenly shouted, "Archer, shoot!"
Buzz——
Following little Santo's order, a buzzing sound suddenly came from the air on both sides.
The hook-nosed face changed drastically!
Immediately afterwards, the corners of his mouth suddenly curved into a bitter arc, and his sharp eyes gradually dimmed.
Because he clearly understood in his heart that this time, he and the Black Dragon Guard were completely in a deadlock.
He would never have expected that the opponent would deploy the most effective and ruthless targeted tactical attack at every step.
When at the bottom, use rolling rocks to attack.
When on steep slopes, attack with the fearsome javelin.
Now he finally rushed to a place with a gentle slope, and he was getting closer and closer to victory. However, the opponent used a rain of arrows to crush the last hope in his heart.
The javelin's favorite terrain is a steep slope. On this relatively gentle slope, even if the opponent's javelin has not finished throwing, it will be more powerful.
Greatly weakened.
But for archers, this gentle slope is their favorite place!
Compared with javelins, one of the biggest features of bows and arrows is accuracy!
On such a slope, the archer's field of vision will be very wide, and the curvature of the slope will make it easier to control the arrow's flight trajectory.
At this time, Hook Nose and Black Dragon Guard were like living targets exposed to the archers!
