Chapter 375: The Orc Slave Trapper
William could also see some of the situation on the city wall below, and the emergence of this situation was also in his consideration.
The Golden Lion Guards can fight the enemy evenly and even suppress them slightly, but the heavy infantry is just too strong to face the Berserk Guards.
After all, after taking the potion, their strength is four or five times that of ordinary people, and even compared with the heavy infantry, it is twice the difference.
Therefore, the heavy infantry began to retreat.
Banstesk wouldn't allow that, though, as his tomahawk swung violently and slashed at the neck of one of the Berserk Guards.
Although he did not break the armor, under the blow of this force, he still broke his neck and died with a whimper.
"Heavy infantry, three or three groups against the enemy! Don't go it alone! Three people against one enemy! ”
Banstek's voice sounded, and this order was also passed around by the soldiers around him.
The heavy infantry who heard the order felt humiliated, where were they who were usually on rampage on the battlefield ever beaten like this? And at this moment, it is a great shame to be able to confront the enemy in a group of three!
Despite the humiliation, the heavy infantry complied with Banshtersk's orders and formed into a three-person formation.
After all, their discipline training is also useful, not to mention that they really can't beat each other.
In this way, according to their usual training, the heavy infantry set up a triangular formation one by one, and in such a situation, they fought around the enemy.
At the same time, the Denlenburg infantry followed behind him was also in a steady stream, like a tide, pouring onto the walls of Maineke City.
Some of them held swords and shields, some of them held spears, and marched on the city wall in a certain formation.
Seeing that the heavy infantry was in a bitter battle, the brigade commander, who was the first to take the soldiers to the city wall, immediately asked the soldiers to line up and assist the heavy infantry in the battle.
The brigade commander was re-established after William's army expansion, and the former column commander could no longer allow the soldiers to accept orders efficiently.
Therefore, a more advanced military system was about to appear, so William divided the thirty columns after the expansion into a brigade, each brigade had jurisdiction over three columns, a total of more than 360 people in a brigade, in addition, there were also more than 40 personal soldiers in each brigade commander.
Listening to the orders of their brigade commanders, the soldiers quickly lined up a phalanx for peacetime operations and gradually advanced to the forefront of the battle.
The pressure on the heavy infantry was relieved a lot, and with the help of the Denglenberg infantry, they faced fewer enemies, and they could even face one berserk guard in two groups.
The battle between the Terrenburg infantry and the Berserk Guards was also quite bloody.
The heavy tomahawks in the hands of the berserker guards slashed at the large shields of the sword and shield soldiers at the front, making loud noises and flying with pieces of wood chips.
The pikemen in the back kept sending their sharp spears to the enemy, although they did not cause any damage to the enemy at first.
But it was always possible to inflict some damage on their armor, and in the case of several Denlenburg infantry facing one enemy, almost every Berserk Guard would face five or six spears.
And they couldn't casually knock the sword and shield soldiers away, because the Denlenburg infantry was tightly arrayed, so one by one, they couldn't fly them at all.
In this way, under the attack after attack, even the berserk guards began to break their armor, and the spear finally pierced into their bodies along several layers of broken armor.
Don't look at the fierce battle, but the casualties on the city wall at this time are actually not large, because both sides are in this heavy armor mode, and they are just cutting each other.
More than ten minutes passed, and the total casualties on both sides were only about a dozen.
However, at this time, the casualties began to increase, the shields of the sword and shield soldiers were smashed, and the armor of the berserk guards was pierced by the spears again and again.
The truly terrifying large-scale bloody war between the two sides has just begun.
As the armor and shields broke, the battle became brutal, but the subsequent Denlenburg infantry continued to climb the walls.
Therefore, although the Berserk Guards were brave and invincible, the Berserk Guards of the Principality of Maineke were defeated by the combined attack of the Dülenberg infantry, which was also strong in combat, and the more well-equipped heavy infantry.
And without the obstruction of the Berserk Guards, the Denglenburg infantry and heavy infantry were of course unhindered and began to climb the city wall in full force.
To William's relief, although some of the soldiers seemed flustered and inexperienced during the battle, they did not waver at all.
Those recruits who enlisted in the army can now be called veterans, and after they have experienced this war, they can already stand on their own.
In this way, the city of Maineke, under the all-out attack of the infantry of Denlenburg, was basically in the hands of William.
The last soldiers in the castle who were loyal to the Duke of Maineck and resisted were also wiped out by the army of Denlenburg.
Almost all the troops of the entire Principality of Maineke were gathered in the city of Maineke, and after being conquered by William, the entire Principality had no soldiers to fight.
Therefore, as long as William excludes the army to receive it, then basically the territory of the whole country will be controlled by William.
William did the same, sending many troops to take over the castles, estates, and villages, and in just three days, the entire Duchy of Maineke fell under William's control.
Needless to say, William immediately gathered tens of thousands of civilians near Maineke City, ready to bring them back when he returned, and later brought back a large number of civilians to enrich Denlenburg and Issamdenburg.
Of course, he has not forgotten the purpose of William's trip, and he will solve the orc problem.
He didn't have to bring so many troops with him on this expedition, but in order to train his soldiers and show his muscles to deter the Senmoriel Kingdom, he still brought all the troops out.
In this battle, William captured more than 1,500 soldiers, and it seems that their combat effectiveness is not weak, and they have some use.
William took control of their family and threatened them to go to the forest on the border of the Duchy of Mainek to capture slaves in the large forest that spanned five or six kingdoms.
This kind of thing still has to be done by them, and if William uses the army to accomplish this task, how many troops and how much time it will take, he will not do such a thing.
He would rather choose to offer a bounty, and then let the desperate class spontaneously form a slave hunting team to go to the deep mountains and old forests to capture orcs, and then buy them himself.
This is indeed a very good way, people driven by interests will definitely desperately capture the orcs, and when the time comes, the orcs that William needs will not be in a steady stream?
At that time, as long as he exchanges the methods of taming orcs and cultivates a large number of orc tamers, he can have a large number of orc slaves. 2k reading web
