The military formation of the merchant group that bore the brunt was frightened by the surging murderous intent of the Sibia cavalry. Amidst the dense tremors of the ground and the thunderous sound of hooves, the soldiers in the first few columns almost lost consciousness and stared blankly at the cavalry rushing towards them.
It was as if the prey lost the ability to resist in front of the giant dragon! Then, the violent black tide covered the battle line - the front row soldiers who hit the high mountain first had no time to even scream, and were trampled to death by heavy horse hooves!
The merchant army behind them was knocked away in pieces.
After a burst of skin-breaking and bone-shattering collisions and wails, the subsequent heavy cavalry inserted into the enemy's square formation, the second row, the third row... The killing movements of each knight were exactly the same, and when the entire row of lances thrust out
Never more than the gap between two spearheads, it is as efficient and rhythmic as a giant scythe dancing in a wheat field!
The combination of superb personal martial arts and overall advantages made the soldiers of the Merchant Corps completely irresistible. Even if they could overturn some knights and horses, the exchange rate was still disproportionate.
"The Bilun Valley Attack Group is over!"
"The 3rd Infantry Regiment's front line has been broken!"
"The Three Corps Model Infantry Battalion suffered heavy casualties!"
The merchant army screamed to kill at the top of their lungs, but the long formation formed the most fatal flaw, making it impossible for them to attack from the flanks, and the ladders and siege vehicles also became a fatal burden... Soon, the soldiers in front were
The second wave of camps was overwhelmed one after another. The twisted stumps covered the path of death, and the strong smell of blood made people dizzy.
"We are approaching the spear phalanx! We must resist it!" The generals of the Merchant Corps were sweating, "The cavalry is ready to hedge!"
The anti-cavalry phalanx of the Merchant Corps was arranged extremely tightly, with dense spears and large shields covering every edge. The soldiers in the front row were covered with colorful magical light. That was the magician giving up rescuing the front army and using all his strength.
The result of blessing them is that they have learned the lessons of the desolate coast. Their shields are extremely thick, their spears are extremely long, their soldiers are extremely strong, and they have huge shield chariots behind them! Ordinary heavy cavalry are very sensitive to this kind of cavalry used to resist dragoons.
The defense is completely powerless and the Sibians will surely be stopped.
But the black tide of cavalry did not slow down. The golden flag was waving, and the single-vertebral formation rushed straight towards the shield wall of the spear forest! Those knights in armor stained red with blood were as ferocious as murderous people from hell.
The monster was slashed by swords and stabbed by spears, but it seemed as if it didn't feel anything. The cavalry in the front row even charged with arrows! Even after being overturned, they could still get up and kill!
Under the city gate, a row of catapults were quietly pushed out with their fangs exposed.
"Fire!" A dozen small stone bullets flew out, passing over the heads of the heavy cavalry with a long roar. After only two or three breaths, they fell into the spear camp of the Merchant Regiment Army.
.
One of the stone bullets hit the breastplate of the commander of the pikemen's phalanx, and with a "boom!" he was knocked backwards. The adjutant picked up the strange stone bullet and found that part of the shell was transparent——
When I looked up to the light, I saw streams of liquids of different colors mixing inside. It was colorful and very beautiful.
"This magic wave is..." A certain magician who was giving blessings suddenly raised his head and shouted, "Be careful..."
"Boom! Boom! Boom..." A series of huge explosions occurred in the pikemen's phalanx. The bright white light blinded almost all unprepared people. The roar that shook the earth made countless people instantly deaf.
The wildly rushing magic elements shattered all nearby blessing magic and magic barriers.
The merchant troops in other areas only felt the huge vibrations coming from the ground. After more than a dozen times, few people could still stand firm. Even the people in the headquarters fell down! The only ones who were not affected were those
The Sibyans who came to harvest lives - they had chosen the distance and were basically not harmed by the explosion!
When the merchant army soldiers got up, what they saw was a nightmare.
Everything within a fifty-arm radius of the center of the explosion was reduced to nothing! The spearmen fifty arms away were swept away by the aftereffects of the explosion, half of them were thrown away, and half of them were scattered. Just like the flying mud, rocks and metal fragments, they were a huge mass.
The splashing flesh and blood were also surrounded by chaos, some were burning and some were frozen, turning into terrifying additional damage!
The spear phalanx disappeared, leaving only a dozen deep pits on the ground and plumes of smoke rising straight into the sky! Flames and frost spread irregularly, and the flying smoke and dust connected together to form thick walls, blocking people's sight.
...However, the Sibia people had no intention of letting them go. Amidst the shouts of killing, the heavy cavalry continued to attack! In the distance, groups of flaming stone bullets flew into the sky again.
The infantry phalanxes that had been divided on both sides to make room for the spear phalanx began to rush forward spontaneously - bravery was only part of the reason, and the other part of the reason was very simple. Behind them were the cluster headquarters and siege equipment, and then
Behind is the main camp, which contains the biggest secret of the Merchant Corps. If it is destroyed by the Sibia people, no one will survive!
"More than half of the Sihaji Assault Infantry Regiment suffered casualties - it is retreating!"
"The flag of the Santos Tribal Advance Infantry Regiment has been lost - it has fallen into chaos!"
"The remaining members of the Meteorite Mountain Knights were surrounded by flames - completely unable to move!"
"No! My phalanx!" A general tugged at his gray hair, "This is not true!"
"Cavalry, counterattack!" The cluster commander forcibly stabilized his body and threw out his last trump card, "Stop attacking in other areas and draw out the mobile regiment to reinforce the south gate!"
"Storm Cavalry - Storm Cavalry..." the commander of the Merchant Corps Cavalry shouted, "Charge with me!"
The 6,000 cavalrymen of the Merchant Regiment, who were waiting in full formation, slowly accelerated to meet the oncoming Sibian people. Flags were flying, and their spears were pointing diagonally at the night sky. They were serious heavy cavalry, fighting against the enemy's heavy cavalry.
Fighting is the long-cherished wish of every soldier! The flaming stone bullets flying from the direction of Regenburg exploded among the cavalry one after another, but did not slow down their speed. They were facing the storm of the black tide!
The Sibyans seemed even more excited. Under the golden flag, the major general knight with a gold star embroidered on his chest used his lance to mow down the last few opponents and shouted: "Heavy cavalry, impact!"
"Heavy cavalry, attack!"
The two violent waves collided and approached quickly, with swords and guns facing each other. The commanders on both sides rushed to the front - the sound of wind roared into the gaps in the helmets, and everyone's vision began to shake violently! Now, no one can change their direction and determination.
, unless one side completely fails!
The infantrymen who were caught between the two groups of cavalry were so stunned that they dropped their weapons and ran for their lives. The supervising team could not stop them at all, and the military orders were in chaos. The huge number of skirmishers directly overwhelmed the phalanx on both sides! Those who ran slowly were unlucky.
The eggs became a roadblock in the eyes of the cavalry - with a crackling sound, countless fleeing skirmishers were knocked away and trampled to death by the horses!
"Kill!" Major General Kuroshio raised his spear.
"Ciceria!" Major General Storm leveled his lance.
"Crack!" There was a sound, and the two spears broke at the same time! When the horses' heads crossed, the two of them drew out their giant swords at the same time and slashed at the back of each other's neck with a "swipe" sound - the black iron giant sword was sharper and faster, not only cutting off the opponent
The giant sword also chopped off a head!
There was a storm on one side and a black tide on the other. They collided with each other with a "bang". Flesh against flesh, steel against steel, blood and light filled the air!
In the chaotic confrontation, the speed of the horses slowed down and they were slowly infiltrating each other. The neighing of the war horses and the roar of humans merged, constantly tearing the eardrums; the sound of the crash of steel was filled with blood, and someone was smashing every moment.
In the dust, give your life and soul to the earth!
In the eyes of onlookers, the formations of both sides have completely overlapped.
The fall of the commander did not make the storm retreat. On the contrary, their performance became more ferocious, fighting madly with every enemy who rushed forward - the swords were curled, the spears were broken, and the plate armor fell off, but this did not stop.
Reason to fight! As long as there is still will and life, they will not stop fighting! They are three times more powerful than the Spians.
The scattered phalanx and the far side that were squeezed to the side are also desperately supporting. Arrow rain, javelins, crossbows, stone throwing... are covering the middle and rear parts of the Sbia cavalry like crazy. I hope it can help relieve a little pressure on our side.
.
However, the Sibiya cavalry became quite well-behaved and unhurried. Their sabers would bring up sparks and blood at the same time when they slashed, and their spears would knock down several opponents when they swept away; the strongest iron armor in the merchant army was
They are not worth mentioning in front of them, and the sharpest combat skills are difficult to work! One person dares to challenge a squad alone, and a squad dares to attack alternately. Even if the body is pierced by a javelin, he will find a way to realize his final value——
The strong and huge shield chariot will most likely be destroyed by these knights!
The formation of the merchant army, which is twice as thick as the opponent, is like a sponge being pressed by a stone. It is thinning and sparse little by little. The tenacity and deadly battle of the merchant army cannot be restored...
…Finally, the pressure on Sibia’s runner-up exceeded the critical point!
"Boom!" On the left side of the battle line, a small group of Sbia cavalry cleared the enemy in front of them, accelerated again and cut into the flank of the nearby enemy! With one impact, the merchant group army squadron was cut off.
"Bastard!" This time, it was the group commander who was deeply shocked!
The destroyed front line had a chain reaction. The Merchant Corps lost one squadron and one squadron. The gap became wider and wider. Unprepared, the Sibyans broke into the depths of the camp! Sibia, who had a superior force,
The Biya people became extremely sharp, and the merchant army that came up to them was overwhelmed as soon as they clashed! Soon, they gathered enough people, like a snowball getting bigger and bigger, and they were about to crush the merchant army.
Press through.
"Have the mobile troops arrived? Order them to speed up!" The commander of the merchant group army group became anxious, because the defeat of the cavalry was only a matter of time - and the consequences would be much more serious than the defeat of the infantry.
"Break attack!" Under the golden flag, Major General Kuroshio raised the blood-stained giant sword again, "Left five."
"Kill!" The snowballs of the Sibia people began to roll, and the impact direction was slightly to the left, making their movements more convenient and the swords sharper! This is the invincible offensive of the Sibia people! The obstacles in front of the horse's head were scattered
In their eyes, the enemy troops are nothing more than chickens and dogs!
This time, facing the overwhelming black tide, fear finally appeared in the eyes of the cavalry of the merchant group. After being supported by fire oil and stone bullets, this steel torrent was no longer something that ordinary people could withstand! They were constantly chopped down by swords and struck by spears.
They were skewered into candied haws, and their corpses covered the ground.
"Boom, boom, boom!" Another round of violent explosions that shook the world, completely destroying the camp and will of the merchant army.
In the light of the sky, the speed of Sbia's cavalry suddenly increased, passing through the scattered merchant cavalry formations, and pressing on the infantry square formations - these merchant formations instantly returned to their ancestors and turned into demonic armies, and began to
Crying and running away.
"Supervisory team!" the cluster commander's voice became hoarse, "Where is the supervising team?"
"Retreat quickly, sir!" The adjutant grabbed his arm, "Their target is the headquarters!"
"Follow-up support will follow!" the major general's staff officer shouted on the wall of Regenburg, "the special forces attack!"
In the first and second attack waves of the merchant group, the anti-cavalry array and storm cavalry were defeated one after another, and most of the battlefield was filled with enemies. Sibia's army completely controlled the battlefield near the south gate. The next step was to
What they did was to expand the results of the war... The flags of the merchant army fell one by one, the phalanxes collapsed one by one, and a large number of soldiers who turned around and fled were rushed towards the camp behind them, and the frontline headquarters instantly
It was passed by the cavalry, and the huge observation window began to spit out thick smoke.
"Right here! Take a step back and your whole family will be killed!" The cluster commander who was dragged into the camp drew his sword and roared at his subordinates, "Officer Corps, Direct Regiment, all remaining troops come forward! Please take action, War Ambassador!"
A large number of troops swarmed up the camp wall, and several mysterious men in purple robes and purple helmets arranged a soft light curtain. However, Sbia's cavalry did not rush forward directly, but circled back in front of their red vision.
, began to hunt down those non-threatening skirmishers - and the commanders and comrades of the Merchant Corps lost their formation and effective organization, and could only watch on the camp wall! In fact, they were the ones who could save the camp.
Lucky you!
Support troops from other directions came over, but stopped outside the battlefield because Sbia established two blazing isolation belts on both sides of the battlefield, making it impossible for them to cross. The magic elements here were in chaos and wanted to put out the fire.
It's a dream.
The fighting and screaming lasted for half the night...
Outside the south gate, it was dyed red with blood...
The merchant army's surprise attack hit Sbia's defense and ended in a disastrous defeat!
It was already the afternoon of the next day when Duke Swice Hepburn walked into the headquarters of the Merchant Corps Vanguard Group.
The disgraced commanders stood in a row and saluted the Duke. Behind them was a large observation window. Beyond the golden military ranks, the Duke could see Regenburg. It was surrounded by columns of black smoke.
The too-high city wall maintains its original color, which shows that the siege planned by the Merchant Corps Army Headquarters has not actually started.
The wilderness is a mess of large holes and small holes, and the radial trenches mark the path and intensity of the raging magic. The tired soldiers of the Merchant Corps are carrying their own people who died in the battle on the passage, and the deep clods of soil and charred soil dug up by the battle are
The grass ashes were mixed together, and the smoke was flying with every step, which was extremely laborious. But there were too many corpses, and if they were not cleaned up, the large army would not be able to reach the city wall.
The Duke's handsome face was calm, but the accompanying generals standing behind him had evil eyes. No one could let go of such heavy casualties.
The lieutenant general commander of the vanguard group took a step forward and took his responsibility: "Your Excellency, the vanguard group failed to capture Regenburg before your arrival. This was my dereliction of duty. I am very sorry, and I am willing to accept any punishment!
"
Walking to the observation window of the command post and taking a look, Siwes said softly: "How many troops were lost in the battle last night?"
"In the Sibia cavalry attack, more than 7,000 people were directly killed and injured. Including those who were trampled and burned, a total of more than 20,000 people lost their combat effectiveness, not counting minor injuries." The lieutenant general looked difficult and cautious when reporting the numbers.
He deleted part of the data to avoid the cruel fact that nearly half of the battle was lost, "More than half of the large siege equipment was lost, and we will have to wait until at least tomorrow to organize a siege."
"The punishment for the vanguard group is to continue fighting and destroy Regenborg!" The Duke's words were really shocking.
"The headquarters will reinforce you. Whatever troops are lost, they will be replaced on the same day. The demon war ambassadors who cooperate with the vanguard army will not change. If necessary, you can ask the ambassador to directly participate in the war instead of setting up a barrier like last night."
Weiss' eyes slid along the walls of Regenburg, and his voice was clear and hard, "I want to destroy Regenburg, or lower the standards, and not a single person inside will be allowed to come out! Until the end of the war."
"Yes!" The lieutenant general was in a daze for a moment, but it was definitely not because of the happiness of surviving the catastrophe. On the contrary, he felt a kind of sadness of being marginalized... Think about it, there are cavalry troops and crystal stones hidden in Regenburg.
Well, no one will be able to avoid suffering a loss. It is not easy to fight a battle to this extent at night.
"Then we... can't participate in the attack below?"
"Instead of wanting to participate in other attacks, the vanguard group should stay here to do something meaningful." The staff officer standing behind the Duke said in a business-like tone, "You must understand the relationship between Regenburg and Huayuxia, and also
Understand the relationship between Huayu Gorge and the Southern War Zone. Huayu Gorge is the real gate to the Southern War Zone of Sbia, and is the focus of their "close the door and beat the dog" strategy. Regenburg is the keyhole of this door - since it is a surprise attack
If you failed to destroy it, now, at least you can't let it rotate anymore!"
"Understood!" the lieutenant general replied at attention, "Destroying or sealing Regenburg tightly is our only mission next!"
"The reason why there are no other punishments is because we have just learned that the commander of Regenburg has been replaced. The replacement is Major General Uda of the Thirty-Six Tribes and his cavalry. Therefore, in terms of personnel matching, the vanguard cluster suffers.
." The staff officer looked at the Duke's expression and softened his tone, "Isn't this kind of enemy with both bravery and resilience your best opponent?"
"I will review my shortcomings." The lieutenant general looked ashamed, "So, the commander of Huayu Gorge has also been replaced, right?"
"Of course, Huayuxia has been replaced by Major General Kenan of the Vampire Tribe, the General Sibia who is known as the second most artistically talented general." The staff officer nodded, "Through insider information, we learned that his defense plan is called 'Ensemble'."
"Huayu Gorge Ensemble? That is indeed not a scene I can handle." The lieutenant general suddenly realized the Duke's arrangement. Just because of Kenan, he was not suitable to go to Huayu Gorge.
In fact, this new commander is not a prestigious person. He is also very low in the ranking of Sibiya generals. He was even given the title of "Taiwan Balm" because he took turns serving in various internal and military departments.
But this vampire general has a distinctive feature when commanding, that is, he is very procrastinating. Just like a cumbersome ancient noble, he will not let you see the dinner plate until he invites you to a dinner for half an hour. And he, like other vampires, also has The vicious fangs belong to the type that looks inconspicuous, but if the opponent is not careful, he will be doomed... Such a guy is really difficult to find an opponent.
"Then Huayu Gorge..."
"The next front-line battle will be directly commanded by the Duke." The staff officer whispered, "With the help of the war ambassador, our offensive troops are almost in place, twelve legions, starting tonight."
"Twelve legions? Is this the limit of teleportation?" Everyone who heard this was surprised, "In terms of logistics supplies..."
"Magicians don't like to go all out, and the same goes for war ambassadors. They can convince members of the demon clan. This is the Duke's method." The staff officer patted the lieutenant general on the shoulder, "In short, I will leave the matter of Regenburg to you. , they are surrounded, and the troops will always be exhausted. I hope you will attack honestly and weaken the enemy honestly."
"Please rest assured, the Duke and the headquarters, the vanguard group will definitely complete its mission!" the lieutenant general replied in the most formal manner.
"Not confident enough." The silent Duke turned around, looked at the lieutenant general and said, "Even if you are all dead, the demon war ambassadors will kill them. The difference is that the demons will be very disappointed with us. "
"Ming, I understand!" the lieutenant general roared hoarsely, "From now until the end of the war, no one will come out of Regenburg." (To be continued)
