Chapter 724: Breaking the Courage

They were biting her back, and if she waited too long, they got entangled, and the soldiers of the Eternal Night around her cooperated, she would have been left here.

At that time, even if you get the result you want, it doesn't make any sense.

Bang!

Captain Lena shot another Eternal Night soldier away, and suddenly a strange and familiar face appeared in front of him—a soldier from the East China Sea who was driven away by the Eternal Night Army's leading formation like an animal.

"Finally rushed out. Looking at those swarthy faces, Lena had never felt so intimate as at this moment, and there was a feeling of tears in her eyes.

She felt like she hadn't rushed into the enemy's ranks, but had gone round and round in hell.

Unfortunately, this nightmare is not the end, but the beginning.

The two Knights of the Night, who were right behind her, appeared in the gap she had just blasted open, shouting separately.

"Combined Skill Heroic Spirit Possession!

"Combined Technique Absolute Barrier!

"Break the enemy!"

The soldier of the eternal night, who had always behaved calmly and almost indifferently, suddenly erupted into a frenzied shout.

Giant phantoms and shield phantoms emerged from the heads of the other soldiers of the Night.

It's just that these phantoms are a little short, and they are a little thin, with only very vague outlines, but they are real.

Dismantling of the Gun Forest Shield Wall.

The shield wall moved in its entirety.

No, to be more precise, it was all the shield-wielding soldiers of the Eternal Night who moved, frantically pushing the tower shield forward.

Bang! Bang!

Countless soldiers from the East China Sea, who had no time to dodge, were struck by the shield wall that was advancing in unison.

They only felt an unrivaled force crashing into them, and they couldn't help but be pushed backwards by the moving shield wall.

Immediately after that, the guns also rushed up.

Snort!

Those soldiers in the East China Sea who were stuck to the tower shield and couldn't move were pierced into rock sugar gourds by the spears that rushed up later.

This treacherous collective advance rushed forward more than ten meters.

Because they advanced too fast and too suddenly.

The East China Sea soldiers in the back simply didn't have time to react.

As a result, too many people are piled up in front of the shield wall, just like sardines, crowded with people, and it is difficult to even twist for a while, let alone other reactions.

And the spears and sabers of the Eternal Night Army are constantly being withdrawn and stabbed, and the soldiers of the East China Sea who are squeezed into the innermost three or four layers have almost zero chance of surviving.

The shield wall dismantled again, revealing gaps and dragging the corpses of those East China Sea soldiers into the shield wall, even if they had not yet become corpses, the people who dragged them in would turn them into corpses.

The human wall in front of the tower shield is thinning at a speed visible to the naked eye.

When the wall of people disappears, it should be the time when the shield wall advances wildly again.

"How can the cooperation between people reach this level?" Throwing the few East China Sea soldiers squeezed behind him, Captain Lena finally freed herself from it, and without hesitation, she retreated more than ten meters in a row, and she felt that she had walked in front of the gate of hell again.

The coordination of the army formation of the Eternal Night Army was terrifying, completely beyond her imagination.

In the face of such a joint force, the role of individual force has been greatly reduced.

Just now, she was squeezed in the crowd like a meat pie, with great power, but she couldn't use it, so she could only be slaughtered.

This kind of fight, she doesn't like, very much.

From beginning to end, she was being led by the nose by others.

The army of the Eternal Night is simply the deadly nemesis of the pirates they like to rush to.

Even if they now have the advantage of troops, they are still pressed and beaten and slaughtered.

Captain Lena looked around, and on the faces of the surviving East China Sea soldiers, what she saw was no longer the familiar excitement and bravery, but only a deep fear.

Although there was no mirror in front of her, Lena knew that her appearance was not much better than theirs.

This battle cannot be fought like this.

If this fight continues, the morale of the most elite part of the infantry of the East China Sea Fleet will completely collapse.

Once it is broken, it will be difficult to gather morale again, and by that time, His Majesty King Stubbin's battle plan will be in vain.

Captain Lina, who had made up his mind in his heart, said in a loud voice: "Withdraw, withdraw, withdraw, let go and let them go." ”

"The captain of the fleet orders to retreat, retreat!

"Withdraw, withdraw, withdraw, let them go. ”

As soon as Lina gave the order, the East China Sea soldiers around her were obviously relieved, and the boatswain immediately passed the order in a loud voice, and then led the people to run in the direction away from the leading formation of the Eternal Night Army, one by one faster than a rabbit.

"Don't retreat, go up, stop them, who told you to retreat?" Connell, the captain of the fleet on the other side, rushed up with a gloomy face and roared, "Lena, are you crazy? Who gave you the order to retreat?"

"Don't you see it? The legions on both sides are not at the same level at all, and they continue to be entangled, just consuming our elite troops. Although Captain Lena was dissatisfied with the other party's attitude, he patiently explained, "If you think about it carefully, why don't they break through before we join forces? Because this is a trap from beginning to end, a trap to slaughter our elites, if our ground troops are defeated, there is no way to cooperate with Your Majesty and implement the plan of besieging Jiangmen Port by land and water." ”

"Is this a trap?" Captain Cornell's face changed several times, and he was a little incredulous, "How could you have such a bold idea? The opponent's troops are not 15,000 when they are full, and what about us? Now there are more than 30,000 soldiers who have landed on the shore, not to mention more than 30,000 soldiers who are landing, as long as we delay them for a while, reinforcements will arrive, they will be unable to fly, once they are eaten, the defensive strength of Jiangmen Port will be greatly weakened, and it will be much easier for us to attack." ”

"Idiot, do you just talk about the plan, don't you look at the comparison of casualties on both sides? The first wave of infantry of the Third Fleet that grabbed the beach has been defeated, and they can't count on it, and now there are only 20,000 of us fighting against them, and if you look at the other side, how many people have been dispatched from beginning to end?

A third, less than 5,000 people, how many casualties have we inflicted? How many casualties have we inflicted on them?

My two boatswains, the boatswain who relied on me the most, had just entered their formation, and one of them was gone, and there were no real casualties to them at all, and the boatswains were like this, and ordinary sailors were encircled by them into the formation, what do you think would happen?

And the infantry phalanx that the other side has defeated the Third Fleet is on its way, do you think we can still withstand it then?" Captain Lena roared hysterically.

What she saw in the army formation of the Eternal Night Army was really terrifying, what was going on, she still didn't understand, but the more she thought about it, the more confused she became, and the more she thought about it, the more frightened she became.

But this kind of thing is not clear to Captain Cornell in a sentence or two, because she herself feels that the experience just now is like a dream, let alone convincing others.

"But what if Your Majesty blames it. Captain Cornell asked with a gloomy face.

He wasn't a fool, he hadn't seen what Captain Lena had said.

The battle has lasted for more than half an hour, and the military formation of the Eternal Night Army Leader still maintains its integrity, and everywhere it passes, there are corpses everywhere, and there are very few who belong to the Eternal Night Army Leader, and the soldiers of the East China Sea are horizontal and vertical, and they can be seen everywhere.

This ratio of battle losses is no longer one to several, but one to ten, or even one to twenty.

If they continue to fight according to the posture in front of them, unless the opponent is weak or tired, they will have a chance to turn the tables.

However, such an opportunity is basically impossible to wait.

Because if they continue to slaughter like this, the soldiers they lead will be the first to collapse.

Captain Cornell knew too well about them.

Fighting with the wind, they are very brave,

Fight hard battles, one runs faster than the other.

It's true pirate style.

They used to be proud of it.

However, when the East China Sea Kingdom was established and reorganized into a regular army, this style became an out-and-out bad habit.

It's just that Captain Cornell is unwilling to take the charge of retreating on his own initiative, unlike Captain Lena, he is not a direct descendant of Stubbin, if it weren't for his outstanding ability, he wouldn't be able to sit in his current position at all, and he naturally has some scruples in acting.

"If Your Majesty is to blame, I will bear it. Lena didn't have so many little calculations in her stomach, and patted her chest.

"Since Captain Lena said so, I can't stop it anymore, and I can't stop it. Captain Cornell waved his hand and said, "What are you waiting for? Waiting for someone to come and cut off your heads? Withdraw, withdraw, get out of the way for them, but don't retreat too far, give me a long stare at them, I don't believe it, are they all made by machines?

After the two captains of the fleet reached an agreement, the soldiers of the East China Sea withdrew to both sides like a tide, making way for the Third Army led by the Eternal Night.

At this time, the shortcomings of the Eternal Night Army's leading array were exposed.

The movement is relatively slow, which is not suitable for pursuit, after all, there is a difference in the physical quality of people.

The high ones will be low, and the low ones will not be able to catch up with the high ones.

Once the pursuit is fully pursued, the military formation will inevitably dismantle.

That is something that the soldiers of the East China Sea wish for, after all, in terms of numbers, the other party still has an advantage.

Field Marshal Erickson was known for his prudence and thoroughness, and naturally he was very aware of the advantages and disadvantages of both sides, and from the very beginning gave a death order not to rush in or pursue the enemy for merit.

In the First Army under Marshal Mackay, the Third Army under Marshal Tagore, or the Fifth Army made up of pure Kentana barbarians, there may be some thorny front-line commanders who have a hot head and make decisions to disobey military orders.

This would never be the case for the Third Army, because Field Marshal Erickson was the commander of the Eternal Night Army, who was most fond of coordinated operations and carried out the most thoroughly.

If you want to work together like a precision machine, the two most important and core points are obedience and discipline.

That kind of thorn, even if it is not eliminated at the first time, will smooth out the edges and corners in repeated training and become a member of the entire military formation.

Sean chose the Third Army to sit in Jiangmen Port, not for nothing.

After the soldiers of the East China Sea took the initiative to withdraw from the encirclement, the two breakthrough corps, on the contrary, did not retreat in a hurry, and stationed in a defensive formation, waiting for the two archer corps and the two tail corps to follow, and then slowly advanced forward.

Throughout, the Third Army remained in full formation, ready to form a larger, more complete defensive formation if the East China Sea soldiers attacked again.

The standard turtle formation, surrounded on all sides by a wall of spear shields, encloses the archer phalanx in the middle.

If the soldiers of the East China Sea wanted to storm their phalanx, they would have to suffer from a dense long-range attack from the longbowmen, and if it weren't for the Eternal Night Commander's plan to make it bigger, at least one artillery battalion (twenty towed infantry guns and thirty portable mortars) would have to be added to this long-range attack.

When they rush to the middle and short range, if the defensive formation of the Eternal Night Army is fully prepared, they will face dense mine arrays and various obstacles, and even if they don't, if the attackers are too dense, they will have to accept the destruction of black powder grenades.

After a series of baptisms, they were able to storm the army's own formation.

In terms of cold weapon combat alone, the military formation led by the Eternal Night Army is enough to be proud of the others, and it is one of the best in the entire Ashane continent.

Not to mention that it is integrated with magic black technology and hot weapon methods, giving birth to unimaginable monsters.

Fighting a force like the East China Sea Country, which is not good at infantry corps combat, it is not a single one, forming a terrifying casualty comparison.

"It's so arrogant, it's so arrogant! They treat us as if we don't exist. ”

"They're so blind. ”

Captain Cornell and Captain Lina all looked angry.

In their eyes, the Third Army's unhurried and unhurried actions were naked provocations and naked slaps in the face.

But he was about to explode, but he didn't dare to take action.

They have a lot of experience in battle, and they know that morale is such a thing, although it cannot be seen or touched, but it is real, and it is very crucial to the victory or defeat of a war.

Their previous retreat had already emptied most of the morale of the soldiers in the East China Sea.

At this time, if an attack is hastily organized, even if more soldiers come ashore and their numerical advantage becomes greater, it may not be pleased.

After paying a greater price, he still let the other party withdraw.

They have now knocked out their teeth and have to swallow them in their stomachs.

I could only watch them leave with great power.

It has to be said that the enemy they faced this time was not only strong, but also cautious and cautious.

From the beginning to the end, they did not leave them an opportunity to take advantage of, and when they were five kilometers away from Jiangmen Port, they decisively withdrew the tracking troops.

The receiving troops of Jiangmen Port have already set up a formation there, just like the turtle formation.

If you chase it any further, once you strayed into the opponent's minefield, maybe the opponent will counterattack and eat their tracking troops.

The Eternal Night's Commander's blocking force withdraws on the front foot.

King Stubbin's emissary arrived, and he said in a loud voice with a blank face: "Your Majesty has summoned the two captains of the fleet and asked you to return to the Izumo immediately. ”

The middle-aged king's envoy immediately bit the word very hard.
