Chapter 501: Silver Wolf Light Cavalry
The scope of the stone forest is very large, and the tens of thousands of people in the vanguard team entered, and the place occupied by them was only a drop in the bucket.
And here erected natural stone pillars of different heights and sizes, the low stone pillars are no more than human height, but the tall ones are like mountain peaks towering high, reaching into the sky.
Ahu's clumsy approach was still feasible in the face of these smaller stone pillars, but as the barbarian army advanced further, the tall stone pillars appeared more and more often, and the intervals became shorter and shorter.
Even if there are millions of barbarian children, but because of the space, the number of people who can appear around the stone pillar at the same time is extremely limited, so the time required to push the stone pillar becomes longer and longer with the march of the team, and after those tall stone pillars are pushed to, in order not to affect the advance of the rear army, the vanguard also needs to clear a sufficiently spacious road in a short time.
It has to be said that Ah Hu's plan was quite organized and predictable, and after the proposal to burn the vegetation and push it to the stone pillar was adopted by the general, he once again suggested that the army could be divided into ten phalanxes according to the order in which they stood.
When the first phalanx opened the way in front, the second phalanx was responsible for clearing the road, while the other eight phalanxes did not need to do anything at this time, so they stopped and rested.
After an hour, the first and second phalanxes stopped in place to rest, while the third and fourth phalanxes in the rear moved forward to make up for them, and so on, which can not only ensure that the stone pillars in the stone forest in front have enough people to push, and the road will not be blocked, affecting the march of the rear army, but also can effectively preserve the physical strength of most of the barbarian warriors, so that they will not lose their combat effectiveness due to the problem of physical exhaustion when they have not yet seen the people in the valley of the Hidden Pole face to face.
The terrain of the wilderness is not as complex as that of the north of Tianduan, and most of it is an endless plain, densely populated with huge areas of rainforest and vast wet grasslands.
The number of brute beasts, that is, the number of demon beasts that the northerners call is many times more than that north of Tianduan, and it is precisely because of this that their ability to resist beasts is extremely strong, and their riding strength is not weaker than that of the Tianlu Dynasty in the north.
The complex terrain of the stone forest was originally not suitable for cavalry to enter, because this kind of place where the cavalry would crash into the stone pillar if it ran a little faster, the cavalry could not fully accelerate at all, and the combat effectiveness would be hindered by humans and beasts, but it was not as flexible as the infantry without mounts.
However, the Domain Leader of the Wolf Clan's Tent still ordered a group of eight thousand silver wolf cavalry to hang at the back of the ranks.
Once the stone forest is bulldozed, such a flat terrain is a natural acceleration runway for the eight thousand silver wolf cavalry, the speed of these silver wolves is much faster than the military horses of the Northern Dynasty, even in terms of strength, it is not weak at all, and these first-order demon beast silver wolves are much stronger in terms of the ability to adapt to the complex terrain, as well as the dexterity of the body, their claws and fangs can participate in the battle, in the barbarians, the silver wolf cavalry of the wolf clan's royal tent is second only to Tianmo in strength
The ancient elephant clan demon elephant heavy armored light cavalry.
Moreover, light cavalry is inferior to heavy cavalry in explosive power, which is also a very normal thing.
Although the living dead puppets in the Valley of the Extremes have terrifying defensive power, the extreme speed of the silver wolf combined with the great forging physical strength that barbarian athletes generally possess, the moment of hand-to-hand combat, the terrifying power generated is enough to cross the gap in the realm and tear through the defense of those puppets.
Relying solely on the crowd tactics of the infantry phalanx, it is natural to be able to kill all the puppets of the living dead, but relatively speaking, the casualties will be relatively high.
On the other hand, if you use the high mobility and high lethality of the silver wolf light horse, you can cause enough damage to those puppets with extremely strong defense in a short period of time, and, most importantly, the silver wolf is dexterous and fast, even if you can't hit a blow, you can quickly distance yourself from the enemy with the advantage of speed, and the number of casualties of the barbarian warriors will be controlled in a very low range.
This idea was not mentioned by Na Hu, but by the experience of this barbarian general.
He had a hunch that those puppets of the living dead would never let him kill them all like this!
In fact, just as the barbarian general thought, after the first two thousand puppets of the living dead were pushed into the stone forest and showed their form, and were besieged and killed by the barbarians, after the first and second phalanxes rested, and the third and fourth phalanxes were filled from the rear, although the work of pushing them to the stone pillars was still proceeding in an orderly manner, this time, the puppets of the living dead that they could find became fewer and fewer, so that when the fifth and sixth phalanxes began to be responsible for clearing the stone pillars in the stone forest, they simply couldn't find a single puppet of the living dead。
The barbarian general is still standing far away on the flying boat outside the formation at this moment, without the protection of Ao Qing, the master of the Heavenly Pattern, he no longer dares to enter the range of the Extreme Valley alone, even if Lord Ao Wu arranged to protect him, there are also two masters of the King Tent of the Earth Weapon Realm, but since Ao Qing of the Heavenly Pattern Realm is dead, such a little guard, in this war, I am afraid that it will not play a decent role.
The commander Ao Wu stayed in the floating ship in front of him for a long time and refused to come out, and the million army from top to bottom all fell on his shoulders, even if he knew in his heart that Ao Wu might be consciously promoting, maybe on that floating ship, he really had something very important, and he really couldn't leave, all in all, his heart was full of excitement at the same time, but also a little more heavy pressure.
It's just that the first half of his speculation about the puppets of the living dead is completely correct, while the second half of his speculation is completely different.
He originally thought that the behind-the-scenes existence that controlled those puppets of the living dead would choose to retreat in time to preserve their strength after discovering that something could not be done, but the fact in front of them was that when nearly half of the stone pillars in the stone forest were destroyed, more than 40,000 puppets of the living dead appeared in front of them in such a grand manner!
In the middle of the day, Gu Youji smiled slightly.
"Although these 50,000 green zombie puppets are already all the stocks in the Extreme Valley
, but in the end, it's just some lowest-level puppets, if they die, they die, and when they're done, the value of so many barbarian corpses and souls is enough for me to cultivate ten times the current green zombie puppets," Gu Youji looked calm, didn't look at the huge floating ship in the sky, and didn't care about the three barbarian masters of the Tianwen Realm in the mothership, but shifted his gaze to the south, looking at the area where the gatekeepers of the Lanque Gate were located behind the lofty mountains and mountains:" Nangong Que, Nangong Que, you have arranged carefully, united Qingxuan and the Spell God Palace, and surrounded all my ways out, but it really took a lot of effort, but you calculated it, but did you calculate, I didn't plan to escape from the beginning?"
An army of millions may be a threat to other sects that is enough to wipe it out, but for the Valley of the Extreme, the Valley of the Hidden Pole still feels that he has a way to deal with it!
"Silver wolf cavalry, give it to me!" The barbarian general gave an order on the flying boat, and the phalanx in front of 100,000 people was orderly separated from a road, and after entering the stone forest, the silver wolf cavalry that had been hanging at the back of the team almost at the moment when the road was out of the way, they all started in unison, and the speed increased to a relatively stable high speed within 100 meters.
The sides of the silver wolf are tied to ten heavy metal javelins that exude cold light all over their bodies.
The Silver Wolf Cavalry also carried a shiny scimitar on his back.
At the moment of rushing out, they neatly pulled out a metal javelin with a quenched blade from the waist of the silver wolf, and the body was like a full bowstring, with the silver wolf's stride, rhythmically stretched into a full moon shape, just waiting for the speed of the silver wolf to increase to the peak, the javelin in their hands was like a meteor shower falling from the sky, splashing down towards the puppet camp in front!
The green zombie puppets in front of the camp jumped high, and in their hands, at some point, a round thorn shield that was large enough to block the entire upper part appeared.
These shields were not prepared in the early morning, but after confirming the way of attack of the barbarians, the people in the underground space in the distant hills, under the order of Iwatai Song, controlled the root system of those strange flowers to grow further, and broke through the ground in the stone forest, forming a thousand solid thorn shields!
Although the men of the Secret Valley have rarely participated in the war with the barbarians for thousands of years, they still know a little about the fighting methods of the barbarian cavalry.
Different from the Tianlu Dynasty in the northern grasslands, although the barbarians in the south of Tianduan also have a large number of cavalry, their fighting style is not like the Tianlu cavalry to wander and rush into battle, the idea, before charging the battle, they will use the power of the mount to rush forward, using javelins to give the enemy as much initial damage as possible in the distance!
By the time the cavalry really rushed into the local camp, the enemy's vanguard was often already in disarray under several rounds of javelin attacks, and suffered heavy losses, and the danger factor and resistance when charging into battle were naturally much smaller than those of the Tianlu cavalry.
And the infantry battle formation was densely numbered, once
If there is chaos in the array in front or is directly crushed, the people in the rear will sadly find that even if they have the strength to fight, they have the heart to resist, but because they are in the crowd, they have to go with the flow.
This is how the so-called rout on the battlefield was formed.
This is also the original meaning that cavalry is an extremely valuable war resource in any dynasty.
They are the class that can create miracles!
