Section 331: Fierce outpost battles

"The whole team ~~~~. ∝ "Seeing the solemnity of the Mecklenburgers, the Mason nobles stopped their tracks, and turned the heads of their horses to the soldiers behind them, the medieval troops who had not been trained in strict formations, in order to maintain the formation on the march, they had to stop and form a whole formation, although it was a long time ago in the time of the Roman Empire, but the influence of Rome was profound in this land that had never been conquered, and the Germanic people knew very well that the armies that maintained their formations were more combative.

"Squeak." The Mecklenburg crossbowmen, who had climbed to the top of the side van, kicked the crossbow apart with their feet, and the bowstring creaked, and a crossbow bolt was put on it.

"Ballista?" Brother Elvet rode a horse and stood in the center of the partial van encirclement, where the flag of Mecklenburg was erected as a temporary command post for the commander, in the ancient era of cold weapons, the flag of the commander played a role in stabilizing the morale of the army and commanding, in the era of radio, the soldiers could only judge the commander's orders with the naked eye, and rely on their ears to listen to the rhythm of the war drums to act, once the commander's flag or camp was breached, the order could not be distributed would inevitably cause confusion.

"No, you don't need to." Harvey shook his head and said to Brother Elvet, the ballista is Arold's secret weapon, it is obvious that this is the force sent by Count Lauzitz to probe the army, there is no need to show his trump card at once.

"God willing." Brother Elvet stretched out his finger and crossed it, blessing the young men who were fighting ahead, and that was all he could do on the battlefield.

"Oh~~~~." Six hundred and fifty soldiers led by the nobles of Mason, they were at last lined up in a neat vertical line under the leather whips of the nobles, and the light infantry, armed with pitchforks and worn-out spears, in order to raise their morale, put their weapons on the ground, and the sound of weapons in the hands of more than 500 people on the ground, and the howl of beasts coming out of their throats was quite powerful. At the same time, it also puts psychological pressure on the opposing enemy.

Before the start of the battle, the soldiers on both sides would shout at each other from the other side, greet each other's mothers or relatives, and of course sometimes act as the other's temporary fathers. At this time, the wisdom of human beings came out, and the Viking warriors used body language to use their arms to compare the process of making people, and the rude people would unbutton their pants and pee on each other, and the two sides were very lively when they came and went, while the noble noble generals rode on their horses and watched, as if they were indifferent.

"Sir Nishizawa is almost ready to start." An aristocratic lieutenant told Commander Sir Nishizawa that the farce before the war was part of the war, but it should not be delayed for too long. After all, this is a war, not a game.

"Well, blow the horn and let the light infantry take the lead, and the swordsmen and Vikings will crush the formation." Sir Nishizawa stretched out his leather-gloved hand and pointed at the opposite side, and as Sir gave the order, the light infantry rushed to the Mecklenburg camp in a tidal wave.

"They're coming, and only three hundred halberders and Vikings can resist it?" Brother Elvet looked at the light infantry that poured in like a tidal wave. His face turned pale, and he listened to the earth-shattering footsteps of five hundred people. and the sound of their roars like waves, the monk who had spent the first half of his life in a secluded monastery felt the muscles of his legs tremble.

"Crossbowmen shoot ~~~." Harvey ignored Brother Elvet, she raised her right hand, roared loudly, and with Harvey's order, she led the thirty crossbowmen belonging to the German mercenary regiment to pull the trigger together. The crossbow bolts flew into the influx of light infantry like locusts, but the number of five hundred light infantry was so great that the crossbow arrows were like several stones thrown into the sea, and although some of the light infantry who were shot fell, they were quickly crossed by their companions in the rear as if they never existed.

"Forward. Forward, those who dare to retreat will be immediately put to death. "The nobles of Mason drove like sheep, the light infantry, who had no helmets or armor, and who killed them with one stone, and whose survival from the battlefield depended entirely on God's will.

"Brothers, hold on to your halberds, and let those sons of bitches know how good we are." The phalanx of halberders, composed of the townsburghers, was fearless, and they looked down on these serfs whose fate was involuntary, and the townspeople considered themselves free, among them were merchants, apprentices in craftsmanship, and blacksmiths, and the richer life made them generally strong, and each could afford armor and halberds, and they were familiar neighbors with each other, and they cheered each other on the battlefield.

"Ahh From the gap between their shoulder-to-shoulder companions, the halberd militiamen saw hundreds of thin light infantry waving the pitchforks and spears in their hands indiscriminately, rushing towards the phalanx formed by the halberd militiamen, the halberd militiamen couldn't help lowering their heads so that their helmets protected their heads as much as possible, and at the same time bending their legs, so that the center of gravity of the body sank to reduce the area attacked by the enemy's weapons, while the halberd in their hands was firmly clenched.

"Poof, poof~~~." Under the action of inertia, the light infantry in the front row suddenly appeared, and they were completely exposed to the sharp wall composed of halberds, and their bodies were pierced by the tip of the halberds when they couldn't dodge, and their bodies were hung on the halberds.

"Brethren, steady, steady." The company commander of the halberd militia roared loudly, although the light infantry of the first and second rows of the enemy hung on the blade, but the overwhelming number of light infantry actually pushed the corpses of the people in front of them to squeeze the phalanx, so that the ranks of the halberd militia were actually pushed back a few steps.

"Roar~~~." The halberd militiamen clenched their teeth and roared from their throats, then lowered their heads and pushed the halberd forward, then with a flick of their wrists, the corpse hanging on it fell, and then the halberd militiamen in the back row raised their halberds high.

This is the power of the citizens' ultimate weapon, the halberd, a combination of a razor-axe and a spear like a sharp corkscrew, which can not only stab but also be lifted and slashed from above, and the enemy's flesh and bones are immediately broken and limbs fly sideways, and the halberd militia in the front two rows are like strong walls to resist the attacking enemy, enduring the spear stabbing of the light infantry, and the halberd militia in the rear is constantly slashing up and down, It seems to be a ruthless machine that harvests human lives, constantly devouring the flesh and blood of the light infantry.

"The Sir Light Infantry won't be able to hold back for long, so give a new order." The adjutant looked at the light infantry who were at a loss in the phalanx formed by the halberd militia, and turned to Sir Nishizawa.

"Hmph, the light infantry is there to drain the enemy's strength, but the Mecklenburgers are too arrogant to let the swordsmen and Viking warriors outflank them from both sides." Sir Nishizawa quickly saw that the front of the halberd militia phalanx was almost invincible, and almost no one could break through their phalanx except for the elite warrior foot knights in heavy armor, but Jazz also saw their weakness, which was flanked to the left and right.

"Woo, woo, woo~~~~." The trumpeters immediately sounded the horn and ordered the swordsmen and Vikings to outflank from both flanks, and the swordsmen and Vikings, who had been in the rear, began to move to the sides after hearing the order, although the Mecklenburgers camped along the road, protected by dense forests on both sides, but the swordsmen and Vikings were extremely dangerous even if they fought alone.

"Andrew, they want to outflank from both wings." The great sword Rex stood on the bent backs of the two soldiers, he clearly saw the enemy's movements, and immediately reported to the crazy Andrew, the deputy head of the German mercenary regiment.

"Let the Vikings flank the right flank, and then transfer the swordsmen of the German mercenary regiment to flank the left flank, and they must not be able to attack the flank of the halberd militia." Andrew immediately ordered, he was getting more and more comfortable now, and it seemed that it was not entirely a bad thing to divide the undetermined from the German mercenary group.

"Yes." The big sword Rex grinned, and immediately carried his sword to convey the order to the German mercenary group in the rear.

"Scandium, scandium, scandium~~~~." The Germanic swordsmen of the German mercenary regiment with their own weapons lined up on the left flank of the halberd militiamen, they were all battle-hardened outlaws, at this time a part of the light infantry bypassed the halberd militia in front of them, and also appeared in front of the Germanic swordsmen, the Germanic swordsmen twitched their noses indifferently, the golden beard on their lips curled, their cold blue eyes were full of disregard for life, and the Germanic swordsmen immediately slashed the big sword on their shoulders, With a single blow, the unarmoured light infantry was split in half, steaming blood and slimy intestines and colorful entrails splattered all over the ground.

"Oh~~~." The Vikings on the right wing were engaged in battle with the noble swordsmen, these tall Vikings were holding snowy long-handled swords, they fought fiercely with the noble swordsmen in the forest, and the Vikings who were already familiar with the long-handled swordsman slashed, stabbed, and plucked three moves, so that the noble swordsmen holding the long sword suddenly became scrambling, they were still the first time to see this strange weapon, if it was a spear, as long as the side was prepared for the sharp spur of the spear tip, if it was a long sword or a knife, as long as it was parried, But this long-handled knife is very insidious, just when you think you have dodged the thrust, it suddenly cuts your unarmored leg from below, and then stabs you in the throat and kills you when you fall to your knees in pain.
