When Lin Ye saw the flying wood, his first reaction was...are they weapons blessed with runes?
And after Hettings saw Sui Qingqi's volley of swords, his first reaction was...is that the power of a practitioner?
The two commanders at the same time developed a higher level of emphasis on the enemy.
If it is on the battlefield, weapons blessed with runes can indeed bring greater lethality.
Even the most elite army selected by Dayu has no good solution in the face of such an overwhelming force of powerful feather arrows.
Ordinary shields may be meaningless, but powerful feather arrows can penetrate the shield directly.
At this time, what Lu Junji said immediately popped up in Lin Ye's mind... There must be a source rune.
If there is at least one rune on each feather arrow, which is a loose rune or a sub-rune, then how powerful is the power emitted by this source rune?
When Lin Ye was thinking about this, Lu Junji was also thinking about it.
Shang Qingwei relied on his strong cultivation to exert further and stronger power in his talismans. Why could those feather arrows be stronger?
"There must be something!"
Lu Junji looked at Lin Ye and shouted: "There must be something providing power to those runes, just like a light-measuring stone!"
Lin Ye nodded and said: "I was thinking about this just now, but it is not easy to find the source rune."
Just as the two of them were shouting these words, something suddenly happened again.
Those small boats approached the shore quickly, but they were able to stop suddenly when they were about to reach the blocking point.
Original
There are also things here that are used to fix the hull and can also be used to prevent ships from docking. They are called iron shackles, but there are not enough of them, so they still rely on wooden horses.
The Lanze soldiers on the boat that suddenly stopped suddenly started flying.
Each of them held something similar to a kite with both hands, and took off directly with the help of inertia and quickly approached the shore.
They were so densely packed that from a distance it looked like a large group of seabirds swooping towards the shore.
At this moment, Hettings, standing on the bow of the flagship, was watching the battle with his clairvoyance.
"For the first time, not only do you have to be fast, but you also have to hit the beauty painfully."
He muttered to himself.
The two commanders had exactly the same thing in mind during the first battle.
The Lanze soldiers flying over were not very fast, but they could fly very far by relying on that strange thing.
Before reaching the vicinity of the archery tower, many Lanze soldiers were shot down by archers, but there were too many. Several of the archery towers had been damaged before, so it was difficult to form an effective defense.
The earthen wall that Lin Ye ordered to be built lost its meaning at this moment.
These Lanze soldiers dropped the balls one by one in mid-air. After the balls hit the ground, they emitted white light, followed by explosions, and several arrow towers were instantly razed to the ground.
The Lanze soldiers were still drifting forward, seemingly trying to cut off the Jade Army guarding the shore.
At this moment, Lin Ye fiercely waved the flag in his hand.
A large piece of grass on the beach side suddenly turned up, and there were young and strong local people covered in grass.
They have received archery training for more than a month. Although they are not qualified archers, they can
They could send the arrows far enough, but their accuracy was a bit off.
Fortunately, there are many people in the sky.
The densely packed Lanze soldiers were shot down countless times by flying arrows, and the soldiers who fell down were smashed to pieces even if they were not directly shot to death.
There were at least thousands of young and strong men ambushed here. According to Lin Ye's previous instructions, they just sent out the arrows one by one, and probably aimed at random places where there were many people and released arrows.
Such a dense arrow array caused fatal blows to the Lanze soldiers flying over, and more and more people fell from the sky.
Lin Ye waved the command flag again at this time, and Sui Qingqu immediately jumped up.
Dozens of swordsmen in bamboo hats followed Sui Qing and rushed forward. The Lanze soldiers who landed on the ground were cut off by the swords one after another before they could stand firm.
On the huge flagship, Hettings put down the clairvoyance in his hand, and his expression became solemn at this moment.
"The bad news is that they have been prepared. It seems that the number of archers is a bit scary."
Ji Fuming, who was standing next to him, said with a playful smile: "The good news is, it doesn't look like a regular army."
Huttings nodded: "They didn't expect to be hit, and these defensive measures seem to be just routine."
Having said this, he turned around and said: "Send the order and double the number of troops!"
The huge conch blew loudly, and the soldiers on several large warships moved to the small boats one after another.
Each of them carried something like a kite on their back, with some runes painted on it.
More boats carrying more soldiers quickly approached the shore, still arriving
When resisting the horse, the ship stopped suddenly, and then with the help of inertia, the Lanze soldiers took off again.
But this time they deliberately controlled the flight distance and landed on the beach.
At this time, they lifted up the kites that could carry them for a glide, and they actually used them as shields.
Hettings raised his clairvoyance again and said while observing: "You also noticed just now that their archers are not well-trained. They are probably local warriors. They don't even have decent armor."
Ji Fuming nodded and said: "That's true, so as long as our warriors rush forward, these archers without defenses will become slaughtered fish, and they can't win."
Hettings turned around and ordered again: "Send the order and break through the enemy's arrow formation as quickly as possible."
High on the mast of the huge flagship, the messenger waved the flag in his hand again.
On the shore, Fernand, who had just landed, looked back at the semaphore, then drew his knife and moved forward: "Follow me and rush forward to drive away the beauty's arrow formation!"
A large number of Lanze soldiers stared at the flying shields and rushed forward. The feather arrows struck and knocked over many people, but it seemed that they could not stop the Lanze people from approaching the arrow formation.
At this time, Lin Ye sent an order: "Let the archers retreat."
The horn sounds.
Those young and strong men immediately turned around and ran away when they heard the sound of the horn. Lin Ye had already told him before that no matter how far the battle went, they would run back as soon as they heard the sound of the horn.
Thousands of young and strong villagers began to run wildly. Because they had practiced it many times, there was no chaos.
Feinan was scared away when he saw the beauty's arrow array.
De laughed loudly: "Charge forward and break through their castle directly!"
Seeing the hope of victory, this group of Lanze soldiers immediately shouted and accelerated forward. It must be said that they all looked tall and strong.
These people are physically much stronger than the jade people, and they run like a group of bloodthirsty beasts.
The villagers ran in front, and the Lanze army was chasing after them.
But at this moment, a burst of war drums sounded.
The light cavalry of the Hu and Ben Army ambushing from both sides came over, one on the left and one on the right, like two sharp knives, directly cutting off the Lanze people's retreat.
Immediately afterwards, the heavy cavalry appeared from the front and began to crush forward.
This is a defensive tactic that Lin Ye has designed long ago. The sandy land on the shore is too soft for heavy armored cavalry to rush into formation, so the enemy must be brought in and surrounded and annihilated in a suitable place.
As for the Martial God Knight, Lin Ye didn't plan to use it yet. He couldn't show all his cards to the enemy in the first battle. The Martial God Knight should be reserved for use when necessary.
It was only at this time that Fernand realized that something was wrong. As he was rushing forward with his men, he saw the villagers in front of him suddenly separated and ran to both sides, and then, a torrent of steel came towards them.
On the huge flagship, Hettings's face changed suddenly when he saw this scene.
The expression on Ji Fuming's face, which was still relaxed and playful just now, became ugly, and the hand holding the clairvoyant became a little stiffer.
"I underestimated the enemy."
Hettings took a deep breath and then ordered: "Fire the arrow!"
Ji Fuming was stunned: "But your men are still on the shore!"
Huttings said expressionlessly: "They can't come back."
Ji Fuming said: "That one is called
Aren’t Fernand’s guys your most loyal subordinates?”
"He is, and I respect him very much."
Huttings' answer remained emotionless.
"But, he can't come back either."
Being outflanked and divided by the cavalry, there were thousands of Lanze soldiers who came ashore, and about 3,000 of those who rushed the fastest were all outflanked.
In a place like this, they had no power to fight back when being crushed by heavy armored cavalry.
At this moment, Fernand also knew that there was no possibility of survival.
He glanced back at the direction of the fleet, and his glance seemed to have spanned the entire sea to Lanze's hometown.
"Fight for Huttings!"
Fernand roared, then violently crushed a ball he was carrying.
Boom!
The two heavy armored cavalry who were close to him were thrown away directly, which shows how powerful the explosion of this thing is.
As Fernand was the first to self-destruct, the besieged Lanze soldiers rushed toward the nearby Jade Army cavalry crazily, then crushed the rune weapons they carried, and self-destructed one after another.
The heavily armored Tiger and Ben heavy cavalry suffered relatively small losses due to their slow speed and defensive power far exceeding that of the light cavalry. However, the light cavalry who charged into the crowd of Lanze soldiers suffered heavy losses.
At this moment, the feather arrow coverage from the Lanze fleet arrived again.
Just like before, a layer of dark clouds quickly flew up from the fleet, and then flew to the shore in a short period of time, falling densely and overwhelmingly.
Lin Ye didn't expect that these enemies could be so cruel.
He thought of countless possibilities, even the almost nonsense possibility that the enemy could fly.
so
Only then would he arrange for the young and strong people to go out to fight first to confuse the enemy.
Not surprisingly, the enemy was indeed fooled, and a large number of enemy troops frantically chased the villagers.
The Huben army would attack and surround these Lanze soldiers. Lin Ye still needed to capture them alive for interrogation. He was too eager to know the origin of the enemy.
However, the scene in front of him made Lin Ye's heart feel heavy.
The light cavalry suffered heavy losses, almost one-third of their number was reduced. The heavy armored cavalry only saw those guys self-destructing, and the rear team had already stopped.
At least two to three thousand Lanze soldiers exploded countless gorgeous and bloody fireworks on this coast, making this war that neither side was fully prepared for even more tragic.
The subsequent Lanze soldiers began to return to the ship in small boats, while the Lanze soldiers on the shore turned into pits.
Both sides suffered heavy losses in this battle. The Huben Army, which Xumi Jinghong was most concerned about, suffered losses of more than 900 people, more than 80% of whom were light cavalry.
"This is the first time I have seen such an enemy."
In addition to the cold murderous intent in Xumi Jinghong's eyes, there was also an unavoidable shock.
When those enemies chose to self-destruct, not one of them hesitated.
It was as if they had been prepared for this day for a long time, and it could even be said that they had been looking forward to this day for a long time, so it was difficult for them to self-destruct one by one without hesitation.
The large ships in the distance temporarily retreated farther away, but the war will not stop happening because of this.
The enemy just didn't expect Yuren to ambush a large number of regular troops here, and Yuren didn't expect the enemy to be so cruel and cruel.
Say there is victory or defeat for each other
Yes, and in terms of military strength, it is more difficult for the Lanze people to accept the loss of more than 3,000 soldiers in one fell swoop. After all, their military strength is indeed limited.
This was only the first battle, and the number of troops lost was completely beyond Hettings' imagination.
However, it cannot be avoided.
No one in the surrounded team could make it back to the ship alive. Since they had to die, they might as well die after killing more enemies.
At the moment when he ordered the retreat, a trace of sadness flashed across the eyes of the seemingly cold-blooded Hettings.
The eyes of Ji Fuming standing next to him were even more complicated.
