The armies of the Middle Ages fought each other, and the competition was about who was worse than the other. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

This is not an exaggeration, before the Middle Ages, in the Middle Ages, the great Rome, the glorious Rome can still arm more than 100,000 highly trained elite hoplites, and at any time can pull out more volunteers who have undergone simple training, for example, in the Second Punic War, Hannibal defeated more than 60,000 Roman elite infantry legions at one time, but Rome immediately mobilized, and finally armed 25 more legions, each with a full capacity of 6,000 people, a total of 150,000 troops!

And that's not all the power of Rome!

When you encounter such an open opponent, how do you say you want to fight?

Thankfully, there is always a limit to the opening, and Rome played the stand-alone game of 'Conquest of the World' so much that in the end it swiped the data overflow and directly blue screen - the Roman Empire blew itself up!

(Note: The self-detonation here refers to the Roman era of the Four Emperors.) ）

But self-detonation is also bad for self-detonation, the civil war of the empire that lost its unity, coupled with the invasion of the Germanic barbarians, and the great revolt of slaves within the empire, the crumbling Roman Empire can no longer maintain order, and finally can only lose all of Western and Central Europe, and finally even the eternal city of Rome is lost, retreating to Constantinople, where Eastern Rome was rebuilt.

After the defeat of Rome, the barbarians, and the slaves who gained independence, all pursued a richer and warmer land, and it was another chaotic war, and this chaotic war has not ended to this day - the millennial feud between Germany and France has simply been cut and disorganized.

And in this chaotic war that lasted for thousands of years, Roman craftsmen, Roman technology, and Roman legions, like some other ancient civilizations in the world, have begun to slowly lose. The Roman army, with its strict discipline, uniform equipment, and well-trained legions, disappeared as if it were legends, leaving only the chaotic charge of the barbarians, which became the mainstream of warfare.

Now, the army under Grand Duke Murchid can be said to be representative of a typical barbarian.

Despite the Grand Duke's best efforts and the dispatch of a large number of knights and cavalry to maintain order, the performance of his army was still unflattering - it was already the limit to be able to keep the archers in front and the infantry behind, and it was really embarrassing to let them out of a tight formation and keep this formation intact!

However, although the performance is so unbearable, it is only a stone's throw forward, so it can barely maintain.

By this time, the peasant soldiers who were still fighting with the mercenaries just now had almost withdrawn, this group of peasant soldiers, it was not possible for them to fight, but the retreat was still quite good, as for where these scattered peasant soldiers would go, whether they would return to their hometown or simply be bandits in Desmond, it was not for the Grand Duke to care.

"Tell the mercenaries in front of them to hold up for a while, and when the other side sends out cavalry, they can retreat."

Seeing that the Grand Duke of Murchid on the opposite side had already dispatched his army, Count Don Jr. frowned, and said this to the knight of Olcoba beside him, and the knight listened to the order, and immediately turned around and got on his horse to convey the order.

This order is mainly to appease the mercenaries, after all, these mercenaries were a big battle just now, and they themselves have consumed a lot of strength, and then let them directly face the new force of the Grand Duke, which will definitely make their military morale fluctuate and their morale will be reduced, and this order of Count Xiao Tang is to give them a hope, so that they can last longer.

"Archer ready, eighty steps, throw!"

Closer and closer, closer and closer, finally to the land of an arrow, Count Tang hurriedly waved his hand, and the mercenary archer, who had been waiting for a long time, immediately drew an arrow from the quiver and threw it into the sky.

"Whoosh-"

The sound of the bow and arrow breaking through the air, a full 120 arrows are shot into the air neatly, and then begin to fall under the action of gravity, although the arrows shot in this way are not much accurate, but because the number is sufficient, coupled with the acceleration when falling, the projectile has become a common tactic for archers.

"Arrows! Infantry Defense! Archers fight back! ”

Seeing that the attacks of the little Count Tang were overwhelmingly attacking him, and the people were more or less a little dense phobia, Grand Duke Mulchid hurriedly shouted like this - I am really not wrong in this overwhelming situation, there are always people who think that it takes at least one or two thousand to be overwhelming, but when we watch war movies and watch the salvo of archers, there may be less than 100 arrows in such a dense rain!

Moreover, mercenary archers, who also have a lot of combat experience, shoot one and then don't look at the bottom of the shot, but immediately take out the next arrow and start the next round of shooting.

But it was impossible to determine how effective these arrows would be, and the infantry raised their round shields on their left hands to protect their faces and hearts. Occasionally, an infantry could be seen being shot in the leg and falling wailing, but the vast majority of the infantry remained unharmed. But the archers, because they were all leather armor and had no shield protection, were shot down many.

At this time, the archers of the Grand Duke also began to fight back, and they were more numerous - although some had been shot down, they were still more numerous than the mercenary archers, so they fired a wave of arrows more intensively.

However, the soldiers of the Count of Don had more advantages than the Grand Duke of Mulchid.

First of all, the mercenaries are in the first column, so most of the arrows go towards these mercenaries, and the mercenaries, they already have a lot of experience with arrows - that is, they have a bigger, better defensive shield, even if there is no shield, there are still the corpses of the peasant soldiers in front of them!

Using a corpse to block arrows is much better than shielding arrows!

Therefore, the casualties of the mercenaries were fewer, and after a few rounds of back and forth between the two sides, the Grand Duke frowned and found that the casualties on his side were even more, which was unbearable!

"Let the infantry start to charge, you guys also prepare, and when the opposite side is chaotic, it will be your turn to play."

At that time, the Grand Duke said this to his most trusted knight, and when the knight heard this, he slapped his chest and went down to gather the cavalry and prepare to charge.

Infantry Charge - As we have said before, it is no longer the era of the domination of the Roman legions with strict military discipline, chaos and undisciplined barbarians have become the mainstream of the times, the barbarian charge, that is

"Whoa—"

The soldiers of the Grand Duke of Murchid began to howl, they howled like wolves, they howled like dogs, they howled like any kind of carnivore, a roar from the deepest part of the human genes, any kind of animal, any normal person should be afraid to hear.

At the end of the Roman Empire, these barbarian soldiers, howling in this way, defeated the elite soldiers of the empire.

Then they charged.

With the greatest strength, the greatest determination, with the speed of running 100 meters.

Then collided head-on with the front line of mercenaries.

"Steady-steady-steady-ready for impact!"

At that time, the commander of the mercenaries, an experienced warrior in his forties, shouted hoarsely, and the mercenaries, they were also huddled together, ready to fight in a dense formation.

"Kill!"

"Kill, kill, kill!!"

"Kill, kill, kill, kill-!!!"

That's it, the whole scene shouted and killed, and the soldiers on both sides used swords, maces, meteor hammers, and other strange weapons to block their own lives and everything, regardless of slashing and killing all the living people who were still active - at this time, the red-eyed soldiers no longer cared whether they were friendly or enemies around them, as long as they were still active with swords, they could cut down without hesitation! Not to mention that they don't know each other in the first place!

However, the mercenaries numbered just over 500 (Count Don took the archers), while the light infantry of Grand Duke Murchid numbered a thousand! Besides, the mercenaries had already fought just now, and their strength had already been consumed. Although he can still fight well, it is only by temporary blood courage. After a while, when the red-eyed soldiers calm down, this momentum will disappear all at once, and the morale and military spirit of the mercenaries will disappear together, and at that time, the mercenary army will not be far from collapse!

But the Count Don the Younger waited, and his pikemen waited until the time of the heavy cavalry charge of the Grand Duke of Mulchid......
