Armed with shields and scimitars, the Amar mercenaries rushed towards the Gringtons' line, but when they were more than thirty paces away, they were attacked by crossbow arrows, and the rain of arrows fell on their heads, and the attack suddenly stalled.

"Pikeman, flat." Blacksmith Mitch roared again, and his rough voice immediately spread throughout the entire position, and this loud voice was one of the reasons why Bruce and the others chose him to be the military tribune.

"Roar." When the pikemen heard Mickey's order, the soldiers in the first row immediately leveled their spears, the second and third rows rested their spears on the shoulders of those in front, and the spears in the back pointed at the sky at forty-five degrees.

"Blow the horn and stop moving." Seeing the wood-like phalanx of spears, Haradin immediately commanded the heralds.

"Whew." The strange trumpets of the Amar sounded, and the infantry, who were already in the charge, immediately stopped.

"What's going on?" Lord Zack asked with a frown, sitting on his horse.

"They seem to have stopped attacking?" Kate, who wears a kingfisher feather hat and has a beard, says that as a good archer, a good pair of eyes is essential.

"Get your men ready, and if they dare to back down or turn back, shoot immediately." Lord Zack's eyes became fierce, and he deliberately arranged Kate's archers in the rear, in fact, there was also the intention of supervising the battle.

"Understood, I'll have the stakes plugged in." Kate's archers would carry a few pointed stakes with them when they were defending, and they liked to line up the pointed stakes in front of the queue to block the surprise attack of the enemy cavalry and block the attack of the infantry.

Nasser wondered why Haradin suddenly ordered to stop the attack, but he knew his friend very well, and unlike himself, Haradin was a thoughtful and cautious person, and would never give unnecessary orders.

"This formation must not be charged from the front, allowing the fighters to attack from both flanks." Haradin groaned slightly, and immediately judged the power of the spear phalanx.

"Don't attack from the front?" Nasser felt strange that the general battle relied on the strength of the warriors to break through from the center, as long as the center broke through, the enemy would naturally break itself, and attacking from both flanks, he needed to divide his troops into two parts, if the enemy took the opportunity to attack, then his troops might be broken individually.

"It's a very good formation, but you see, they have too many people in a phalanx, they look clumsy, and even if they attack, they will be very slow." Haradin explained to Nasser.

Haradin saw through the strength and weakness of the spear phalanx at a glance, and at this time, Bruce rode on the horse and felt a little uneasy in his heart, originally thought that the Amar people would pounce on the spear phalanx like a tide, Bruce was absolutely confident that the spear phalanx could absorb twice the enemy's attack, and when the enemy was tired, the armed servants on both wings and other Glinton soldiers could crush the enemy's army.

"Woohoo." The trumpets of the Ammar people sounded rapidly, and the strange language of the Amar people came from the rear layer by layer, and the voice of the Amar people gradually spread on the battlefield.

"Hell, damn heretic."

"Eat, you devils from the East."

"Wahaha, ugly Ammar."

The soldiers on the Bruce side, except for the soldiers of the spear phalanx, because of the strict military discipline constraints, Ignas's armed servants, banged on the shields in their hands and cursed loudly, scolding the formation It seems that whether it is this time and space, or that time and space, whether it is ancient and modern, it looks the same, and the generals will not restrain this behavior, because this kind of scolding can insult and provoke the enemy, and can vent the fear of the soldiers.

"What do these Amar people want? They won't be. Bruce's eyes narrowed, he looked at his spear phalanx, then at the other side, and suddenly a sense of foreboding came over him.

"Boom." The sudden split of the Amar army, which was an unexpected action that surprised everyone, wondering what the hell this group of infidels wanted to do.

"Oh no, Stukov, Edward will immediately lead the army on both flanks, Ken and the noble cavalry will come with me." Seeing this, Bruce immediately shouted that it was not good, and he hurriedly sent his loyal men to lead the army, while he personally led the noble cavalry into action.

"Haradin, the enemy's commander-in-chief has acted." Nasser saw Bruce's banner begin to move, and he immediately addressed Haradin.

"It's so fast." Haradin's gaze stared sharply at the changes in the movements of the two armies, and he couldn't help but put the back of his hand to his mouth, his teeth clenched.

"Haradin." Nasser was very surprised to see Haradin's behavior, this is a bad habit of Haradin when he was a child, whenever he felt nervous, he would bite the back of his hand, when he was a child, he often bit the back of his hand to be dripping with blood and unconsciously, and later Nasser's mother, who raised Haradin, forcibly changed this bad habit.

"Oh, hmm, I'm sorry." Haradin came to his senses at Nasser's reminder and quickly put down his hand.

"Don't worry, now that the order has been issued, we can just attack." Nasser reached out and patted his friend on the shoulder, he didn't like to think, and fought heartily on the battlefield with his martial arts and intuition.

"Ming, understood." A smile tugged at the corner of Haradin's mouth, and he knew that Nasser was comforting him, but he didn't have the time to say anything more because the attack had already begun.

"Whew." Another dull trumpet sounded, and the Amar men, divided into two parts, rushed to the flanks of the Bruce formation.

"Sure enough, it was on the flank." Bruce was bustling on horseback, and he couldn't help but be surprised at the generals of the opposing army as he looked at the Amar people attacking his own army like pincers.

In the world of Bruce, the spear phalanx is a combat system that appeared in the classical era and the middle and late Middle Ages, and there is nothing about being able to see through the advantages and disadvantages of the spear phalanx, but the problem is that the opponent can see through it at once when he sees it for the first time, which shows that the opponent's general is a guy with excellent tactical thinking and strict logic.

"Tsk, things are suddenly getting interesting." But for some reason, Bruce's heart not only did not feel panic, but unexpectedly rose an inexplicable sense of joy, which was very strange, a kind of happiness of meeting an opponent in chess.
