These defensive formations are like terrifying monsters. Each time they attack, they range from as little as ten meters to as many as more than twenty meters. All enemies within this range are swallowed up. When they move again, all that is left behind is a pile of corpses.
The collaboration between soldiers is by no means developed overnight. In addition to showing an extraordinary tacit understanding, there is also mutual trust. They trust their comrades just like they trust their own brothers.
This kind of coordinated operations is not only reflected between soldiers but also between defensive formations.
You can tell by looking at the speed at which they advance. Once a certain defensive formation finds that it is advancing too fast, it will slow down and wait for other defensive formations to catch up.
If they find that other defensive formations face a large number of enemies and have difficulty advancing, they will immediately change direction, encircle them, cannibalize the enemies, and help share the pressure.
This feeling is especially strong if you look down at the battlefield from above.
The army led by Yong Yejun is like a complete whole, exuding a kind of silent beauty.
"What on earth are those idiots doing? This is murder, this is naked murder!"
"Stop shooting! Stop shooting! Bastard, stop shooting, you are killing your own people!"
"I want to go back, I want to go back to Dawan. These bastards don't regard us as human beings at all. I will never work for them again."
"Father, I was wrong. I should have listened to you. I should not have listened to the promises of these bastards. They never regarded us as their own. No, these bastards did not even regard us as human beings. I want to go home."
"I surrender, don't kill me, we are also forced!"
"Please, don't kill us!"
"Swim back, swim back quickly!"
The blocked soldiers who landed on the East China Sea collapsed completely after being covered and shot by their own fleet three times.
The legion led by the Yongye Army in front is a terrifying monster, and there is no way to break through their defense line.
The fleet behind them again carried out long-range strikes regardless of their life or death.
If these long-range strikes could inflict a large number of blows to the Yong Ye Army soldiers, at least they would have hope of continuing to advance forward.
But the problem is, the other party didn't suffer much damage, but our own people fell down in pieces.
No matter who you change, everyone will collapse.
The reactions of these Donghai soldiers were varied.
He screamed and rushed forward.
Dropping his weapons and kneeling down to beg for mercy.
He turned around and swam towards his own fleet.
Or trying to seize a small warship and return home.
The first two Yongye soldiers treated them equally, and they all struck their vital points twice. In this kind of stalemate battle, they had no time to accept surrender. Bringing them into their complete defense formation would not only drag down their own integrity, but also
Plant a time bomb for yourself.
People's collapse is temporary. Who knows if they will come back to bite themselves after they are safe.
The wisest choice is to turn them into corpses.
As for those who fled towards the sea, they probably won't end well either.
No army likes soldiers who run away without fighting, especially in the early stages of a war. They must be punished severely, otherwise the subsequent battles will be impossible to fight.
As for the miserable situation on the beach, the East China Sea Fleet can't see, hear, or care at all. Anyway, they are just a group of cannon fodder used to hold back the blocking force led by the Yongye Army. As long as they can do this,
Their mission is complete.
On the beach two kilometers away from the battlefield, more small warships gathered, forming the second and third landing points.
Compared with the Donghai soldiers who landed previously, these soldiers are taller, darker in appearance, and better equipped, with most wearing sharkskin armor.
They are the real elite of the East China Sea Fleet, Stubin's old team.
Marshal Ericson, who was personally in command, discovered that they had opened a new landing point, but he was helpless.
The Yongye Army has elite soldiers, but there are too many points that need to be defended.
The northern fortress, the western border of the Donau Plain, and the twin cities all need troops to guard.
Not to mention that the East China Sea Fleet invaded as many as six places this time, and there were six legions divided into other rivers.
The city at Jiangmen Port cannot be empty. One legion must be left behind for defense. Only two legions with 12,000 men can be sent here to block the attack.
The East China Sea Fleet has now invested more than 30,000 troops to seize the beach, six full regiments. This is only transported by small warships, and there are also those transported in giant warships, which are constantly handling.
By the time they all land, they will have at least 50,000 troops.
Although Marshal Ericson still had two fully-equipped regiments that were not engaged in the battle, he did not dare to divide his troops easily. They were here to block the attack, not to be blocked.
I could only watch those two points helplessly and easily land ashore without any hindrance.
The leader from the north was a rare female among the pirates. She rushed to the land at the lead. She had a strong body, a deep face, and slightly thick lips, tightly pursed. This fleet captain named Lina was a captain who had been following Steubin for many years.
A strong man who once served as the boatswain of the Dragon Roar, he is impeccable in both his personal combat prowess and his loyalty to Steubin.
Captain Lina pressed the scimitar and said: "Everyone, gather around me. Come on, don't act like a girl. Didn't you have enough milk before you went out today? Do you need me to feed you?"
"Sister Lina's, we can't bear it happily, because I'm afraid His Majesty will chop us into pieces."
"If you really have the courage, I will castrate you myself without His Majesty chopping you up. Don't be nagging. If you don't want to die, act quickly."
Soon, with the female fleet captain at the center, the Donghai soldiers assembled a military formation of some quality.
"Captain, do you need us to rescue them?" Lina's adjutant asked in a low voice.
"Didn't you see the opponent's turtle formation just now? What do you think our chances of winning are if we charge hard?" Captain Lina asked in return.
"About 30%." The adjutant replied with some guilt.
"Thirty percent? You really think too highly of us. If we charge head-on, we won't even have 10% hope, and we will still suffer heavy losses." Lina smiled coldly, "Why do they care about the life and death of a bunch of cannon fodder? They
My mission is to hold them back, go around them, and block their escape route. I want to block them on this beach."
"I understand, the captain is wise." The adjutant looked like he suddenly understood, and did not forget to flatter him.
Captain Lina waited until 80% of the landing force led by her landed ashore, then gave the order and moved toward the back of the blocking defense line of the Third Army led by the Yongye Army.
The landing force of the Second Fleet led by Captain Cornell, which landed south of the blocking battlefield, had the same reaction as Captain Lina.
They really do not regard the cannon fodder of the new army in the Third Fleet as their own, and at the same time they are not willing to face the hard core of the Third Army.
The turtle formation led by the Yongye Army gave them a headache just looking at it, let alone chewing it, as their teeth could chip out if they were not careful.
Overwhelming them with numbers is the way to go.
"The Second Corps of the Bull Corps and the Second Corps of the Fortress Corps enter the rear formation and break out with all their strength to overwhelm them." Marshal Ericson also experienced many battles, so how could he issue a series of orders as they wished.
"The Second Corps of the Bull Legion, follow me to attack."
"Second Corps of the Fortress Legion, follow me to attack."
Captain Lina and Captain Cornell had just led their soldiers to form a simple encirclement, and the counterattack from the Yongye Army arrived.
It wasn't until the actual battle that Captain Lina and Captain Cornell realized why the Third Fleet was as fragile as an egg when it faced the turtle formation led by the Yongye Army during the landing process, breaking at the touch of a touch.
That's because the disparity in strength between the two sides is so great.
The terror of the shield wall led by the Yongye Army was far beyond their imagination.
Even if they were replaced by the most elite sailors from the East China Sea Kingdom, they would still be as good as chopping vegetables in front of them, and they would die in an extremely miserable manner.
These elite sailors are all very good at fighting alone, and they have never recognized a bear when fighting alone.
But the Yongye soldiers didn't give them a chance to fight alone. As soon as they took action, they were stabbed by rows of spears, or after parrying with heavy tower shields, they thrust out sharp sabers from behind.
They finally peeled off the turtle shells of the Yongye soldiers and rushed in. What awaited them was a crowd of people and a flurry of slashing with sharp knives.
Their knives struck each other's bodies, making clanging sounds, and most of them couldn't even break through their defenses.
The swords of Yongye soldiers slashed at them, but they were bloody.
Even if you want to exchange injury for injury, you can't do it.
If only that was it.
The Yongye soldiers saw that the Donghai soldiers were too dense and it was difficult to make a surprise attack.
There was a wall of guns and shields, and countless black powder grenades were thrown out from it.
There was a blast.
The Donghai soldiers who had not expected this at all fell down like wheat.
Flesh and blood are flying all over the sky as if they are free of money.
After the formation became a little thinner, their shield wall of guns came to life again, rushing up quickly and encircling the survivors, stabbing them with spears from far away and slashing with sabers from near.
They didn't kill pigs as fast as they did, leaving corpses all over the ground in the blink of an eye.
The two regiments led by the Yongye Army, with more than 4,000 men, were surrounded by the four legions of Donghai soldiers with more than 20,000 men. It was as if they were entering an uninhabited land, constantly staggering and advancing, leaving behind corpses along the way.
Within a few minutes, Yongye Army Leader added another chip.
The long archers of the two regiments changed the direction of attack and aimed the arrow rain at the surrounding troops behind them. After each wave of arrow rain, hundreds of Donghai soldiers would fall. After most of them fell, they had no chance to get up again.
.
"The First Corps of the Bull Corps, the First Corps of the Fortress Corps, prepare to cover the retreat." Under the order of Marshal Ericson, the frontal blocking battle between the two armies also came to an end.
The rain of arrows was ravaging, and the two regiments were wreaking havoc repeatedly.
The landing sailors of the Third Fleet of the East China Sea Fleet, leaving behind three to four thousand corpses, completely collapsed. Those soldiers would rather huddle in the sea than rush to the shore, which is simply to die.
The casualties paid by the Yongye military leaders were less than a hundred.
Even though they watched the Yongye soldiers begin to clean up the battlefield and prepare to retreat, they did not dare to go ashore to pursue them. The disparity in strength between the two sides was too great.
If there are casualties on each other, that's called war.
If it's one-sided, that's called massacre.
What they had just faced was an out-and-out massacre.
What frightens these East China Sea soldiers the most is that they always have room for self-control.
Many of them had just witnessed with their own eyes that their friendly forces had gained an advantage and were preparing to kill the other party's soldiers.
It was as if the opponent's soldiers were out of control. Either their strength increased dramatically, or their speed soared, or they became invulnerable. With a backhand knife, they chopped up their own friendly soldiers.
One person can also be described as accidental, two people can be described as coincidence, three people, four people... How can a bunch of people be like this?
That's not just a coincidence.
Can this battle still be fought?
What kind of monster were they facing?
This is also the question that arises in the minds of Captain Lena and Captain Cornell.
The equipment, the well-equipped ones are scary to death.
Joint operations are as precise as machines.
From time to time, there will be a big explosion, a life-or-death comeback.
"Earl, Sid, Calorie, take your people and follow me." Captain Lina is definitely the kind of master who does not believe in evil. Seeing that the tens of thousands of troops he led were defeated by thousands of people, Silver
He gritted his teeth and drew out his two swords, preparing to personally lead the elite to break through.
The opponent's coordination ability is really terrifying. As long as they remain a complete whole, the Donghai soldiers who are not good at coordinated operations will always be in a situation of more than a dozen. Even if the number of Donghai soldiers as a whole is several times that of the opponent, locally,
It's always the other side who beats the opponent with more.
Only by breaking the turtle's hard shell into pieces can you eat the most delicious meat inside.
The same is true for the military formation led by Yongye Army.
Only by breaking their integrity can the Donghai soldiers take advantage of their numbers to separate and outflank them.
"Captain, here I come."
"Sister, let's start rushing!"
"Haha, let's have a big fight!"
Three tall bosuns led their men and gathered around Captain Lina.
These sailors have one thing in common, that is, they are tall and strong. The weapons they hold are very different from the scimitars, long swords, daggers and other dexterous weapons of ordinary sailors. Instead, they are heavy hammers, two-handed axes,
Heavy weapons such as half-handed swords and broadswords.
There is no doubt that they should be a type of attack team in the East China Sea Fleet, specializing in brute force destruction.
Captain Lina inserted her sword back into her waist, grabbed a two-handed heavy hammer from a sailor who was not much shorter than her, and rushed towards the gun forest of the Yong Ye Army leader.
Shield Wall shouted: "Follow me."
"Come on, smash their turtle shells together with Sister Lina."
"Come, let them taste my sword, it is thirsty enough."
boom!
The attack team led by Captain Lina personally collided heavily with a military formation.
Click! Click! Click!
That heavy two-handed hammer, in the hands of Captain Lina, was as if it had no weight, dancing like a tiger with wind.
All the spears hit by it were broken.
Captain Lina just hit the front of the shield wall.
"Open!" Lina shouted violently, rounded the hammer with both hands, and hit the gap between the tower shield and the tower shield hard.
Buzz!
The splicing point of the tower shield was dented at a large angle inward. The soldiers behind could not help but follow the tower shield, and the entire formation was involuntarily deformed to a certain extent.
"Come again!" Lina's round hammer came again. This hammer was not aimed at the gap, but at the tower shield in front.
Bang!
With one hammer blow, the tower shield was severely deformed on the spot, and the Yongye soldier flew backwards into the formation.
The first hammer has destroyed the synergy between the tower shields, and the second hammer can only be resisted by this tower shield soldier.
"Champion Knight!" At this time, a series of low roars came from the Yongye Army Formation.
"Let her in." Then the latest order came.
The shield wall of guns facing Captain Lina split like a tide, and then surged past her. Behind her, a new shield wall of guns formed, directly covering her and the few people around her.
The attack team members were circled in a formation, separating them from the large force of the Eastern Navy.
"That's what you want." Captain Lina laughed loudly, turned around and swung his hammer.
