Chapter 340: The Battle of Salem (1)
"Considering the outstanding performance of your troops in the defense of Lancastes, I hope that Your Excellency will continue to make persistent efforts to fully demonstrate the heroic spirit of our Otigar Empire......"
In short, let the Cordillera city defense army serve as cannon fodder...... When the herald told Hathaway about the Marquis de Miro's military orders, the look of schadenfreude in his eyes was almost a matter of words or words.
According to the arrangement of the Commander-in-Chief, the Cordillera City Defense Army was at the forefront of the frontal battlefield...... In other words, once the battle starts, they will face the earliest and most fierce attack, and whether the battle is won or lost, they will have to bear great losses.
"Shameless!"
Bi Lin. Hegel slammed his fist on the table, almost knocking it down, and the other generals looked extremely unsightly. Although everyone knows that Hathaway's appearance in Lancastes City this time has attracted a lot of envy, jealousy and hatred, it is indeed a bit excessive to do so.
"No big deal."
Hathaway smiled faintly: "Fire refines real gold, the last time Lancastes City was fought by their city defense army, this time let those people really appreciate the fighting style of the Cordillera city defense army." ”
The Cordillera was bordered by the mountains of Brinia, and the orders of Frevinette XVIII seemed to be in Hathaway's favor, but now that Hathaway was out of town, she had no time to care, as if guarding a barrel of explosives, and she wanted more than anyone else to end the battle and return to the Cordillera Plateau with her troops.
The day after receiving the battle order, the Ostega coalition officially formed and prepared to engage the orc army. As a lord, Hathaway can stay behind. But instead, she rode the unicorn Heavenly Song and appeared in front of the array.
At the same time as the Ordiga coalition army formed a formation, an army of orcs walked out of the city of Salem and formed a formation according to the city. This time they were clearly trying to attack with heavy cavalry, and the bull orc warriors at the front, covered in heavy armor, left only small gaps in the eyes and mouth of the helmet, with heavy, huge war hammers in their hands. The mount under their crotch was a red rhino specialty of the Orc Empire, also wearing a vest and spitting restlessly with a furious breath.
This is the wildest cavalry of the Orc Empire, the Red Rhino Heavy Cavalry.
For hundreds of years. The Red Rhino rode across the battlefield. In the Titan world, there is hardly any hoplite cavalry that can withstand their attacks on a frontal battlefield, and even their enemies have to be amazed at the combat effectiveness of this hoplite. A famous troubadour once wrote, 'The light of the armor opens to the sun, and the purple scales are opened.' The red rhinoceros crushes the city and wants to urge'. Through the ages.
And today, the infantry under the leadership of the Cordillera will be the first to withstand the frontal onslaught of this force. The lords of the Otiga Empire, who tried to see Hathaway's jokes, seemed to have seen the Cordillera defenses crushed under the onslaught of the Red Rhino Heavy Cavalry.
"Stupid, she actually put the dwarven heavy cavalry behind the infantry, isn't she afraid that after the infantry is defeated, she will disrupt the formation of the dwarven heavy cavalry?" Marquis Miro said contemptuously.
"It's just a little girl, who succeeded in defending the city by luck, but she didn't know that the sky was high and the earth was thick. Maybe she thought she was a great magician, so she thought she could resist the Red Rhino Heavy Ride. An adjutant next to him said jokingly.
"Humph! Naive! ”
Marquis Miró dismissed, "It's a pity that the dwarven heavy cavalry, if they are still there after this battle, you go and contact their commander, we can hire them for double the price." ”
"Yes, sir."
The adjutant answered, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Your Excellency, have you noticed that there is something strange about the infantry weapons of the Cordillera Leader? ”
"You're talking about the sticks?" Marquis Miró narrowed his eyes, "Well, I'd like to see what kind of weapon they have in their hands, is it the legendary dog-beating stick?" Hehehe......"
He thought he had a good sense of humor, and laughed softly, and the adjutants next to him laughed with him.
"With such a commander, how can the empire be undefeated?" Bi Lin. Hegel turned his head and saw this scene just in time, and although he did not know what they were talking about, he was certainly not discussing the war.
"Huh?"
Hathaway, who was in front of her, suddenly let out a startled cry: "Isn't that the royal family of the Orc Empire?" ”
Bi Lin. Hegel hurriedly turned his head to look at the front of the formation, only to see that the orc army on the opposite side had already set up a formation, and a Lion King flag appeared in the position of the middle army, which surprised everyone.
The Lion King Banner represents the royal family of the Orc Empire, and only the royal family can fly this flag.
On the battlefield of Zimbwe Province, there is only one person who can use this banner - that is, the supreme commander of the Orc Empire on this expedition, the first heir to the imperial throne, and the eldest prince Liszt. Rhine.
This time, the Orc Empire's military operation in Zimbwe Province was carried out in the name of Liszt. Rhine was the supreme commander, commanding several large armies to defeat the army of the Odega Empire.
When they saw the red rhino heavy cavalry, everyone was already surprised, because this army usually appears on more important battlefields, and the appearance of this royal flag is obviously a corroboration.
Surprise is followed by fanaticism.
If this battle can capture Liszt. Rhine, that means that the Ortiga Empire can end the battle with dignity and a victorious attitude...... In the minds of most of the officers of the Otiga Empire, they believed that with their absolute superiority in troops, they would definitely be able to win the battle at hand. That's what Marquis Miró thought in his heart.
A desolate, majestic trumpet sounded from the orc army, adding a bit of majesty to the battlefield. Suddenly, the sound of the horn stopped in an instant, and the sudden empty silence brought an awe-inspiring emotion that almost made people's hearts beat still.
In the enemy formation on the opposite side, a crimson earth-walking dragon came out, and on top of it was a young general in golden armor and without a helmet. His countenance was full of masculinity, his appearance was handsome, and his golden hair was draped behind his head, like the mane of a lion.
He did not make any speeches, nor did he exhort the enemy to surrender.
The young commander who was riding on the earth-walking dragon beast just looked at the enemy on the other side so calmly...... Suddenly, an extremely moving smile appeared on his face, and he suddenly pulled out the broadsword at his waist, slashed forward, and shouted: "Kill!" ”
"Kill!"
The red rhino knights shouted in unison, like rolling thunder, with an indomitable momentum to charge forward, at the beginning the speed of those red rhinos was not fast, but the speed was rapidly increasing, between a few breaths, a torrent was formed, roaring towards the human army opposite.
"First row, gun raised!"
"Ready--put! Get down! ”
"Second Row ......"
Just four hundred meters away from the Cordillera Army's defenses, Barthes. Willy shouted orders and attacked.
This is the first time that the Magic Rifle has landed on the official battlefield of the Titan World.
Today's magic rifles have developed to the third generation, and the city defense army is equipped with the second generation of single-shot magic rifles - that is, a shot must be a bullet and a magic crystal powder.
This time the Cordillera led the troops, and a thousand of them were spearmen. And in this battle, Hathaway brought 500 spearmen and 500 sword and shield soldiers. Although these spearmen used single-shot magic rifles, they were equipped with special armor-piercing bullets instead of ordinary projectiles, so after the first row of shots, more than a dozen red rhino cavalrymen burst out of their bodies and fell off their mounts one after another, even if they were trampled by their comrades who rushed from behind. Several red rhinos were shot and fell down without running a few steps, and the knights above immediately rushed out of the rhinoceros's heads. It was lucky to break his neck, and he died without pain, but the other two who were not hurt were unfortunate - the red rhino riders who trampled on them would never slow down because they were their own, and the terrible screams were inaudible in the sound of the mountain shaking.
If the first round of shooting, everyone was still a little surprised and unbelievable, then the next five blows were like a dream for both the enemy and us, but one side felt that it was a hallucination, and the other side was a nightmare.
Barthes. Willy lined up the spearmen in two phalanxes, fifty men each, each with five platoons. From 400 meters to 100 meters, a total of five rounds were fired, and in front of them were the corpses of the heavy horsemen of the red rhinoceros, some of whom had lost their owners stood in the middle of the station in confusion, their owners were like luncheon meat that had been crushed by wheels, and they were impossible to identify.
"It's ...... Red rhino heavy riding?! "In Jill. Beside Miro, the adjutant who had just laughed at the Cordillera City Defense opened his mouth wide like an idiot. And the commander next to him, the image is not much better, and his eyes are about to pop out.
"Kill!"
The rest of the Red Rhino Heavy Cavalry are still attacking, and this is no longer for victory, but for honor!
Barthes. Willy gave an order, the formation changed, the infantry separated to the sides, and the dwarven heavy cavalry, which had already gathered momentum behind, also roared and charged forward, but one team was recuperating, and the other team had completely lost its spirit, and the result could be imagined.
"What kind of weapon is this?"
Seeing the famous red rhino riding heavily on the attack of an unprecedented weapon and suffering casualties, Liszt. Rhine's gaze was extremely solemn, but he was worthy of being an excellent commander, and he was not discouraged by the defeat of the Red Rhino Heavy Cavalry. Just as the dwarven heavy cavalry annihilated the remnants of the red rhino heavy knights, the light cavalry and heavy infantry phalanx of the orc army also began to move.
On the Ostega Empire's side, taking advantage of the sharp spirit of the Red Rhino Heavy Cavalry being annihilated, the war drums roared, and the phalanx of different symbols began to rush forward...... At least the Cordillera City Defenses don't have to face the enemy alone. (Want to know more exciting news about "Demon Dance"?)
