Chapter 347: Breakthrough

The Macedonian phalanx, once a glorious formation, was even named 'invincible' at its most brilliant, however, for a modern person like Luo Ji, this statement is inevitably a bit exaggerated.

There are still weaknesses, he can name several of them casually, and it is inevitable that they will be cumbersome to give examples one by one, just take the two most obvious weaknesses as an example......

The first weakness is flexibility, the spearmen are a class, the length of the weapons in their hands is enough for them to say goodbye to the word 'flexible', and the Macedonian phalanx that needs to be set up with spears in rows can be imagined, which makes it difficult for them to deal with some surprise attacks.

The second weakness comes from their own formation, this formation is an advantage and a weakness, the dense phalanx makes every soldier in the formation basically has little room to move, if a soldier in the phalanx makes any mistakes, it is likely to directly implicate a large number of people, which leads to the requirements for soldiers and terrain will become very high, at the same time, such a dense formation, imagine that at this time, if there are two waves of arrow rain falling from the sky, the long-range troops will be able to ......

However, it's a pity that Li Yuanjie doesn't seem to have common sense in this area, but even if he does, it's useless, with such an obvious weakness, how can Zhao Pan not be on guard? The big shield soldiers who withdrew before had already protected the flanks and rear of an entire phalanx, specially guarding against all kinds of surprise attacks!

In the face of the dense and sharp spear, even the kobold who was unusually brave a moment ago inevitably began to panic in his heart.

The retreat of the kobold troops inevitably caused some pressure on Li Yuanjie, but in the face of such a phalanx of spearmen, it was indeed difficult to resist without the support of shield-wielding troops.

The current situation is not the time to feel the elite troops under his command, thinking of this, Li Yuanjie decisively dispatched a part of the werewolf warriors to resist the advance of Zhao Pan's large army on this side, but unexpectedly, at this moment, Zhou Yi, who had been staring at the movement here, was also waiting for an opportunity......

"Raid of the whole army!!"

With an order, the long-silent military array completely exposed their hideous fangs at this moment, and Liu Zheng, who had already rested enough, waved the Spring and Autumn Broadsword in his hand and took the lead in breaking through again!

There are five-star fierce generals in front of the road, a few werewolf warriors are not afraid at all, between the swing of the Spring and Autumn Broadsword, the ferocious combat power of the first-class generals completely broke out, and the three werewolf warriors who tried to block his way, just one face, was one dead and two injured, and Li Yuanjie, who was looking at the rear, jumped in his eyelids, "Li Ke, stop that human being for me!" ”

Li Ke, who received the order, decisively brandished his double knives and rushed forward again, but Zhou Yi, who had been guarding against the opposite hand for a long time, how could he let this werewolf get in their way?

"Stop!" With the same order, more than a dozen or twenty bronze halberds attacked Li Ke at the same time, in the face of such a battle, no matter how fierce the generals were, they had to take two steps back, Li Ke was of course no exception, but this retreat, it would be difficult to attack again, this long halberd soldier was obviously kept by Zhou Yi.

After a rush to kill, with the re-convergence of the two troops, a whole formation was converted again, with Liu Zheng as a sharp knife, frantically breaking through in one direction, several targeted formation changes and tacit cooperation between soldiers made them tear a gap in the encirclement network of the orc army, and rushed out all the way!

"Chase, chase me!" At this moment, Li Yuanjie's face is undoubtedly difficult to see, and it is really the first time he has encountered a situation like this.

Liu Zheng, who successfully broke through, turned his head and glanced at the orc army that was chasing after them, the other party was chasing very closely, and the soldiers in the rear were dying more and more, and someone had to stay behind to buy time for others to retreat.

As soon as he thought of this, Liu Zheng decisively slowed down and retreated to Zhao Pan's side, "Old Zhao ......"

"Not allowed!" Zhao Pan spit out these two words with a pale face, even if he didn't listen, he knew what Liu Zheng wanted to say.

"You should see this situation better than I do, someone must stay behind, or everyone will die!" Speaking of this, Liu Zheng's tone softened slightly, "Zhou Yi, Liu Tao, Zhang Luo, and you, you are not that material, and there is only a dead end to stay......"

"It's a dead end for you to stay!!" Zhao Pan, who has always had a calm personality, was obviously out of control at this moment, and Liu Zheng's words were interrupted twice in a short period of time.

"But at least I can buy time!" Liu Zheng replied without showing weakness, "And don't forget, before dark, the people of Tiebi City have just evacuated ......."

In a word, it directly stabbed Zhao Pan's weakness, making his face pale, and he couldn't say half a word at all, such a large-scale movement, even if he rushed overnight, at this time, the people of Tiebi City would definitely not be able to go far, once they were caught up by these monsters, the end could be imagined.

"Running further on, it's the city gate, what should I do after that, I don't need to say more, right?" While speaking, the gate on the other side of the Iron Wall City was already close in front of them, and in order to facilitate the evacuation later, even after nightfall, the gate was not lowered, which saved them trouble.

With such a thought, Liu Zheng turned around and confirmed the location of the pursuers, relying on his familiarity with the terrain of Tiebi City, he also threw off a distance, but it was a dream to get rid of it completely.

"Liu Zheng ......"

"Let's go." As he spoke, Liu Zheng reached out and snatched the torch from Zhao Pan's hand, and pushed the person out of the city gate, and then he turned around decisively, unwilling to look at his old brother's expression, he had always hated such a scene.

While walking, he took out a wine bag from his arms, and then poured two sips into his mouth, after satisfying his hunger, he poured all the remaining wine in the wine bag on the organ of the city gate, this is the tiger bone wine that His Majesty rewarded him, usually he himself is reluctant to drink it, now it's good, it's all cheap.

The long pain is better than the short pain, after pouring it all down, Liu Zheng held a little torch in his hand, and the entire organ was engulfed by the fire in an instant, and the spreading fire suddenly burned the rope connecting the city gate, lost its support, and the city gate that was originally raised high suddenly fell down.

Now, Liu Zheng's whole person calmed down, took a deep breath of the wine in the air, and he couldn't help licking his lips when he was aroused again, "I should have taken a sip more if I knew it, and I don't know if Lao Zhao ran away with people......

With such a thought, Liu Zheng subconsciously turned his head to look at the closed city gate behind him, and dozens of figures that should not have appeared there, which made him stunned, and his suddenly sour nose almost made him burst into tears, and then shouted forcefully, "Damn! I said, a few of you, why don't you retreat with the big army, why do you stay? ”

"The brothers aren't afraid that you won't be able to stand it alone, so stay and have a good time."

"Fart! Lao Tzu beats them a hundred like playing! Hearing this, Liu Zheng laughed and scolded directly, his voice was uncontrollably hoarse, one by one, but it was really his old brother, the first batch of soldiers under him, after so many years of fighting, he died, retired and retired, and now there are only a few who are still with him, and he can name each of them, "What about Lao Lu?" Wouldn't that grandson be here too? ”

"No, the grandson wants to stay, I gave him a kick for free, kicked him out, my son is almost running all over the ground, and I don't have a lot to do in my heart, this time, we old bachelors will accompany you away."

As he spoke, there was a burst of laughter, and the army of orcs who were quickly chasing them in the distance had already surrounded them at the city gate......
