Chapter 14: Confrontation
The sky was exceptionally clear, the blue sky was endless, and white clouds floated in the air, drifting slowly into the distance with the breeze.
Today is a particularly good weather, and if it is used for work, everyone's work efficiency must be improved a lot, and if it is used for other things, it will have the same effect, right?
On the main street of Limburg, the houses on both sides fluttered with countless red dragon flags, the citizens stood densely under the eaves, from time to time the flowers collected in their hands were thrown on the road, the crowd was silent and speechless, the atmosphere seemed depressing, Lelouch walked in the front, a silver-white stainless steel armor, a red cloak on the back, the helmet glowed in the sunlight, as if it was like a layer of white light for Lelouxiu, and a sacredness came from Lelouxiu.
Seeing Lelouxiu, the depression of the citizens was much easier, behind Lelouxiu, followed by five hundred standing soldiers, mighty armor, heavy shields, sharp war spears, all of which made the standing team look full of security and strong deterrence, thanks to the excellent queue discipline training, the standing team queue walked extremely neatly, and the neat footsteps were as rhythmic as war drums.
This kind of army gave the citizens of Limburg a great shock, they had never seen a standing army in a queue, and they had never seen such an army in a way that no one else could imagine, and this shock soon turned into a sense of security, which filled the hearts of the citizens of Limburg.
Immediately behind the standing force were two thousand of the best trained militiamen, who only had a uniform style of coarse red dragon robes and an excellent spear, along the way, the spears were like a forest, although the footsteps of the militia were not as uniform as the standing troops, but the dense spear forest still exuded a different charm, for war, the more violent the aesthetics, the more it can give others safety and trust.
The team composed of 2,500 soldiers still exudes remarkable combat effectiveness, the soldiers stepped on flowers, followed by Lelouch towards the outside of the city, the tragic atmosphere permeated the team, but when the team saw Lelouch walking in the front, that trace of tragedy and contained endless firmness, the courage of the soldiers, a flock of sheep led by a lion, enough to defeat a group of lions led by a sheep, the two sentences are different, but their meaning, is the same.
It is worth noting that there are two people walking beside Lelouch, a knight of medium stature, but extremely stable: Liebert, and a tall warrior with a burly body and heavy black armor: Nevsky!
No matter how long the street is, there is a moment when it is finished, when the last soldier walks out of the city gate, with a bang, the heavy city gate is closed, isolating the inside and outside, inside the city, there are countless eagerly awaited citizens of Limburg, outside the city, there are 2,500 soldiers defending their homeland, the city gate not only separates the two groups of people, but also isolates life and death.
In the distance, the goblin army left the wooden fort and came towards Limburg, Lelouch looked at the dust rolling in the distance, raised his right hand, and the team quickly unfolded, five hundred standing soldiers in the middle, the militia was evenly arranged on both wings, the standing team held shields and lined up closely, like a neat long wall, behind the shields, there were sharp war spears, and on the two wings, the militia without shields held long spears, like hedgehogs facing forward.
Yes, what Lelouch is going to use to redeem the goblin army is to come to the spear phalanx in later generations, it can be said that this is the most effective combat method that Lelouch can think of at present.
For the design of his own troops in the future, Lelouch has his own plans, through some scroll records, the various forces in the other world do not seem to particularly value the formation, only the elves and dwarves pay more attention, one is to increase the amount of arrow rain throwing, the other is to increase the output time of firearms, but the battle arrays of these two are different from the battle arrays of the earth, and the earth battle arrays that Lelouch will bring to the human race will exude a charm that is different from the two.
In addition, the people of this other world do not have the saying of such and such a continent, in their opinion, the world they live in is the center of the world, and each race has a different statement, but through this period of understanding, Lelouch can still understand the meaning they are ultimately pointing to: Middle-earth!
The human physique of Middle-earth is much higher than that of the human beings on the earth, and the individual strength is definitely above the middle of the human race, coupled with the cooperation of the battle array, what kind of situation will their combat effectiveness rise to, think about it, on the vast battlefield, the tide of orc armies rushed towards the human race, and the human troops wore heavy armor, holding a shield in one hand and a sword or war spear in the other, neatly lined up in a tight queue, slowly and unstoppably moving forward, that picture like a torrent of steel, how shocking would it be?
In the blink of an eye, the goblin army in the distance appeared in the field of vision, the goblins seemed to be very surprised that there would be a group of Terran troops on the plain to stop in the semi-center, the team was slightly messy, random and calm, the speed was somewhat beyond Lelouch's expectations, it seems that with the goblin troops of the highlands, the combat effectiveness has indeed increased by several grades.
The goblins advanced some distance again, stopping five hundred meters away from the Limburg troops, and from the sky, the two teams on the plain were far away from each other, one team appeared strict and scarce, and the other team appeared loose and large, just from the area of land, the goblin side was in an absolute advantage.
The Terran soldiers in the queue stood nervously together, surrounded by dense comrades-in-arms, dense spears pointed straight ahead, heavy panting sounds continued to be heard in the ears, the wind blew in the face, driving the flag to whirring, and the earth was empty, but this was even more magnificent, Lelouch stood at the front of the team, as if there was a fire burning in his chest, the romance of a man, sure enough, was the battlefield.
Lelouch looked at the team behind him:
"Liebert, let's go and boost morale!"
Lelouch was followed by Libert and a flag bearer, the red dragon was blowing in the wind, and the banner was coming all the way, and everyone looked at them with obedience and trust, because they knew that this was their lord of the city, Lelouch was coming.
"Who led us to build the magical wooden castle!!"
"Lelouch!"
"Who is it that is leading us out of poverty?!"
"Lelouch!"
"Who is it, let's live the life we are living now!!"
"Lelouch!"
"Who is it that will lead us to victory?!"
"Lelouch, Lewouch, Lewouch, Lewouch..."
Lelouch raised his right hand to signal to the soldiers, who waved their weapons in response, and the overwhelming shouts made people's blood boil, and under the influence of extreme atmosphere, people tend to become blind obedience, and this is also the time when it is easiest to cultivate absolute fanaticism for a certain person.
Lelouch pulled out his long sword with a loud bang, and the team gradually quieted down with Lelouch as the center, and all eyes looked at Lelouxiu:
"Today, we stand here, not for anyone, but for ourselves, for the family behind us, and for the wealth that our family has worked so hard to accumulate. ”
"We have no way out, this is not the war we have chosen, but we have not chosen to go against the grain, we have chosen to rise up and resist, the enemy may be able to decide whether to come or not, but we can decide whether they will go or not"
"My people, my people, for the sake of the family, for the sake of the homeland, for the sake of the children, please follow me and follow me to victory"
Lelouch swings his sword:
"I promise, I will be at the forefront of the ranks, I will be the first to meet the enemy, the first to step into the battlefield, the first to lead the charge, the last to retreat, I promise, brothers, give me your strength and trust, for victory!"
The herald passed Lelouch's words to the entire ranks, and the cheers spread from Lelouch's side, instantly filling the entire ranks:
"For victory, for Lelouch!"
"For victory, for Lelouch!"
"For victory, for Lelouch!"
The soldiers shouted desperately, waving the weapons in their hands, the standing soldiers rhythmically tapped the shields with their weapons, and the uniform battle cry in their mouths quickly spread to the whole army, and the morale was particularly high, Lelouch did not speak, took the shield handed over by the attendant, turned around and walked to the first row in the middle of the queue, with this scene, the morale of the Limburg troops exploded to the extreme, and the goblins seemed to launch a charge in order to cooperate with all this.
A black torrent poured out!
