Chapter 764, Shaking the Earth and Shaking the Earth
Javelins thrown by barbarian warriors at close range can not only ignore the shields in the hands of demon warriors, but also pierce their celestial scales.
In addition to the lethality of throwing javelins, the Barbarian warriors are not inferior to the Demon Warriors in hand-to-hand combat.
Even under Ning Yuan's extreme eccentricity, with the help of the advantages in weapons and equipment, their hand-to-hand combat ability has far surpassed that of the demon warriors.
So in defensive battles, the Barbarian warrior is definitely the number one nemesis of the demon warrior.
And it is impossible for Ning Yuan, who has a barbarian army, not to know this, and he will never be stingy to let the barbarian warriors move their muscles.
As a result, the surviving demon warriors quickly saw javelins that were rapidly growing in size.
With a terrible scream, the demon death squad that had stormed the Condor Army's trebuchet position fell in large numbers.
After the baptism of the hive ballista and the barbarian javelin, the demon warriors who were still charging on the battlefield had become scarce.
However, the military order was like a mountain, and when the horn of Mingjin's retreat was not sounded in the rear, they could only continue to rush forward as long as they were alive.
When the few surviving demon warriors rushed to the front of the Acupuncture Jungle Formation laid by the Condor Guard.
Looking at the dense spears and the airtight shield wall in front of them, many people showed desperate expressions.
"The Demon Clan will never give in!"
After glancing back at the mountains in the distance, the remaining demon warriors shouted slogans and slammed their bodies into the Condor Army's Acupuncture Jungle Formation.
Seeing the 20,000 demon death squads rushing over and all of them killed without even making a splash, Daniels' face became even more solemn.
And while he was still thinking about what to do, under the cover of the shield-raising infantry, the Condor Army's trebuchet position began to move forward again.
Seeing that the Condor Army wanted to use cascading advances to flatten their own positions, Daniels immediately showed a disdainful sneer.
"Come on, send someone to dig up all the passages at once, and then the whole army will retreat thirty miles, and we will go to the next line of defense and wait for the enemy."
After glancing at the massive trebuchets of the Condor, Daniels decisively ordered the army to retreat to the rear positions.
After their trebuchets were destroyed by the Condor's design, they lost the ability to continue to confront the Condor here.
So instead of being bombed by the Condor Army here, it is better to retreat to the rear position and rearrange the defense.
Taking a step back and opening up the sky is not applicable to all situations, but it is very applicable to the current demon army.
Because the movement of trebuchets is very demanding on the terrain, as long as they dig more ravines and set up more obstacles, the Condor army will waste a lot of time if they want to transport the trebuchets here to the second line of positions thirty miles away.
And this time is enough for them to build a third line of defense, a fourth line of defense, in the rear,......。
Anyway, now the Condor Army is the one who is eager to fight, since this is the case, then he will hang the appetite of the Condor Army to see if they really have the patience to grind with themselves here.
If the Condor couldn't help it, they would have to give up the bulky trebuchets.
When the time comes, the enemy and the enemy will fight with real swords and guns, and he will not believe that the demon warriors under his command will be inferior to those hodgepodge legions of the other side.
"My lord, the enemy is beginning to retreat backwards while destroying the road."
After discovering the abnormal behavior of the demon army, the Seraphic Scout in the sky immediately flew to Ning Yuan's side and reported to Ning Yuan.
After hearing the latest information from the front, Ning Yuan pondered for a moment and said, "You continue to send people to keep an eye on the enemy, always keep an eye on the enemy's movements, and report to me as soon as there is a new situation."
Come, go and inform the army at the front to stop attacking.
Send the rat men to reconnoiter the situation on the enemy position, and when everything is in order, then let the army go to receive the enemy's position. ”
Ning Yuan was frightened by Jun Moxie south of the Yangtze River, so out of caution, he did not dare to order the army to pursue.
Moreover, the demon army is only a strategic retreat this time, they still have the strength to fight, if they rashly send troops to pursue, it is likely to give the enemy a chance to take advantage of it, so Ning Yuan finally decided to fight steadily and steadily, not giving the enemy a chance to turn the tables.
Soon, the rat soldiers inspected the situation on the demon army's position, and after learning that there were no traps and ambushes, the vanguard of the Condor Army immediately went to accept it.
The fortifications built by the demon army are mainly trenches, earthen walls, and earthen forts, with some horses and sharp logs, if the Condor army attacks from the front, it will inevitably pay heavy casualties.
However, when they withdrew voluntarily, the sharp logs in the horses and trenches were suddenly furnished, and could no longer threaten the lives of the Condor soldiers.
Whether it is a tall barbarian or a small nezumi, you can easily walk along the pontoon bridge.
It's just that people and horses can walk through, but bulky trebuchets can't push it.
When Ning Yuan rode the silver Pegasus and flew to the sky above the demon army's position to observe the ground, he immediately understood what kind of medicine was sold in Daniels's gourd.
The ravines dug out by the demon army, one on the left and one on the right, are completely a large labyrinth.
Men and horses could walk out along the pontoon bridge, but the cumbersome trebuchets would never be able to push them past the position in front of them.
The position built by the demon army stretched for more than ten miles, and if it was to take a detour, it would at least waste several days, and this was when the roads in other places were unimpeded.
There were just a few heavy rains here a few days ago, and now there is standing water in some low-lying places, even if the demon army will not deliberately destroy the road, nature will give the Condor army some problems, so it is not advisable to take a detour.
It would be a good idea to have the craftsmen of the sapper battalion disassemble all the trebuchets into parts on the spot, transport them and reassemble them.
But if the enemy continues to play with them in the next line of defense, how will they respond?
You should know that the main body of the trebuchet is made of wood, and then assemble it after disassembling it once, its service life will be greatly reduced, and if it is disassembled three or four times in a row, it will be scrapped after a few times.
Therefore, if the enemy continuously uses this space-for-time tactic, and the Condor chooses to dismantle the trebuchet to quickly follow up, then soon all the trebuchets on the Condor side will be scrapped.
Although Ning Yuan was not 100% sure that the enemy was using this tactic, this time he had a very strong hunch that he would not guess wrong.
Soon, his suspicions were confirmed.
When the Seraphic Scout, who followed the demon army all the way south, brought back information to Ning Yuan that the demon army began to dig up various ravines in the south.
Ning Yuan immediately concluded that the enemy knew that the trebuchet had a useful life, and they wanted to take advantage of the weakness of the trebuchet that was not easy to carry to scrap the trebuchet of the Condor Army.
"Hey, it looks like we're going to have to use a killer weapon here.
It's a pity, it's a pity, the demon army isn't a perfect target.
But it's okay, just take this opportunity to hit the strong self-confidence of the demon clan, and let them know what it means that there are mountains outside the mountains and there are people outside the people. ”
After determining the tactics that the demon clan wanted to use, Ning Yuan let out a helpless sigh.
"Someone, pass on my military order, except for the rat soldiers who are responsible for reconnoitring the terrain information, all the other members of the engineer regiment will stay and fill all the ravines here for me.
If there are not enough people, then go to the North Shore and bring those refugees over.
I don't care what method you use, I must completely sort out the south bank of the Wei River, and in the spring of next year, I will see that there are fertile fields everywhere. ”
Ning Yuan first gave the engineer regiment an order to fill the pit, and after deciding to use the killer weapon, the engineer regiment and their trebuchets were no longer needed, so Ning Yuan was ready to send them to sort out the land on the south bank of Weishui.
This year it must have been given for nothing, but next year it will not be given for free, and if such fertile land cannot be used effectively, it will simply be struck by thunder.
"Go and inform Niu Tianci and let him prepare, next time it's time for him and his totem army to appear."
After thinking about it for a while, Ning Yuan finally decided to send the guards to inform Niu Tianci, he was worried that he would bring some unnecessary pressure to the other party if he went over in person, after all, this was Niu Tianci's first battle.
......
On a sunny morning, Ning Yuan led the Condor Army to reappear in front of the demon army's position.
Riding a silver flying horse, looking at the second line of defense built by the demon army, Ning Yuan suddenly showed a disdainful smile.
"Are all the armies in place today?" Before launching the general attack, Ning Yuan made the final confirmation.
"Your Majesty, all the legions are in place, just wait for Your Majesty to order an attack." Hearing Ning Yuan's inquiry, the intelligence officer beside him immediately replied.
"Alright, let's start now!"
After receiving an affirmative reply, Ning Yuan directly ordered the start of the attack.
"All the Flying Legions have risen into the air, the Condor Guardian Wall form, forward!"
With the herald shouting, all the flying legions on the side of the Condor Army flew into the air, and the heavily armored Condor Guard held high the huge tower shield and began to slowly advance towards the position of the demon army.
Seeing that the Condor Army on the opposite side made a big move as soon as they came up, Daniels, who was standing on the conning tower, ordered without showing weakness: "The demon army, all enter the position, and the shield wall and spear are all erected for me."
Let the Armor-Breakers prepare for me, and when the group of tin cans on the other side gets closer, I'll smash them to pieces. ”
After not seeing the trebuchets of the Condor Army, Daniels was not afraid of the Condor Army who took the initiative to press up.
At this moment, there is a flame burning in his heart, he has been overshadowed by the Condor Army so many times, and today he can finally fight with the other party in a dignified manner.
It will soon be clear who is the strongest army.
The Condor Guard, who was holding his shield high, suddenly stopped when he advanced to a place fifty or sixty meters away from the demon army's position, and then immediately arranged a needle stabbing jungle array on the spot.
"Totem Legion Advance!"
After seeing that the Condor Guard had already set up a defensive formation, the heralds on the side of the Condor Army continued to shout loudly.
As soon as the herald's shout fell, Niu Tianci led 20,000 minotaur totem warriors covered with mysterious tattoos and huge totem poles to start advancing towards the position of the demon army.
When he saw the Condor Guard suddenly stop fifty or sixty meters in front of his position, Daniels' mind was filled with question marks.
The place where the Condor is guarded is very exquisite, ordinary bows and crossbows cannot pose any threat to them at all, and short-range javelins cannot pierce them wearing heavy armor and holding heavy shields at such a distance.
Unless the demon army rushes out on its own initiative, they can only watch there, and there is no way to deal with them.
Daniels was interested in letting the Armor Breakers attack directly, but he was worried that the enemy would be deceitful in doing so.
Just as he was still hesitating, the Totem Legion of the Condor Army was dispatched.
After seeing that the enemy sent a group of tall minotaurs, Daniels finally decided to wait and see, anyway, as long as they had a geographical advantage, he was not afraid of what the enemy would do.
"Array!"
When Niu Tianci led the totemic warriors to the back of the shield wall of the Condor Guard, he immediately ordered the army to start arraying.
After receiving the order, the 20,000 totem warriors immediately set up a long snake formation with a distance of three meters.
"Shake the ground!"
After all the totem warriors stood still, Niu Tianci shouted loudly while using the earth-shaking battle method.
Shock the Earth: When 10,000 totem warriors smash the totem pole in their hands to the ground at the same time, a huge shock wave will be generated around them, and all ground races will be unable to move for ten minutes.
Requirements: Totem warriors, the number must be more than 10,000, and the spell must be cast continuously for one minute.
The cooldown time for the earth-shaking is one year.
"Hoo, ha, huh, ha,......。"
After feeling a mysterious force from the ground into their bodies, all the totem warriors began to shout neat slogans while smashing the totem poles in their hands to the ground.
As the 20,000 totem warriors repeated the same action in unison, everyone on the ground had the feeling that the ground was shaking with the movements of the totem warriors.
"What are those stupid big guys doing? Do they want to collapse the ground? ”
After seeing the actions of the totem warriors, Daniels suddenly looked puzzled.
Although he felt the vibration coming from the ground while he was in the control tower, he didn't think anyone could really rely on brute force to collapse the ground.
Especially the Condor Army on the other side, if they really have that kind of ability, then who is still their opponent, I am afraid that they would have dominated the world long ago.
"Could it be that the enemy is doing this to boost morale before the battle?"
While Daniels was still thinking about it, a minute passed quickly.
As the totem warriors slammed the totem pole to the ground for the last time, everyone standing on the ground suddenly felt a restraining force pass from under their feet.
When they tried to move their feet, they suddenly found that their lower body was completely unresponsive.
They are like a tree that takes root there, unable to move at all.
Their lower body has completely lost sensation, and only the upper half of their body belongs to them.
The Earth-Shaking Tactics allowed the totem warriors to strike the final blow and successfully freeze everyone on the ground, including themselves.
