Chapter 1725, Black Knight
After the armies of the two sides launched the first wave of head-to-head confrontations, the disadvantages of the human armies soon became apparent.
Their melee combat capabilities are simply not comparable to the army of dark elves.
At this stage, and even in the next stage, the military development of human civilization has a characteristic, that is, with the development of military strength, the attack distance is getting longer and longer, and the long-range firepower is getting stronger and stronger, but the melee ability has gone downhill.
At this moment, the weakness of their melee ability can be said to be completely exposed.
Although these soldiers have practiced the ability to fight bayonets, can they really compare with these people who have been fighting with swords? The answer is self-explanatory......
The Black Knights wielded their broadswords and opened the door to the battle, followed by a ferocious assault by the Dark Warriors and the Spearmen.
At this moment, although the Celestial Empire's army has the advantage in strength, it is affected by the negative buff on the opposite side, coupled with the decline in the morale of its own side, the whole situation is actually at a disadvantage.
In this situation, Hua Ye, who saw the rear, frequently wrinkled, and then hurriedly contacted the command center on the front line through radio communication equipment.
Next to the radar vehicle, the temporary front-line command center was implemented as soon as it received the order.
According to the order, the army of the Celestial Empire, which was at war, began to fight and retreat.
At that time, the army of dark elves, who were attacking fiercely and had more morale, naturally chased and fought all the way.
Faced with this situation, Chris Evans, who was observing the battle situation in the rear, frowned slightly obviously.
No one is stupid, in the current battle situation, if his dark elf army pursues too far, the dark elf crossbowmen and dark elf mages in the rear will not be able to support the front row of troops.
Unless they follow suit......
Chris Evans undoubtedly saw the intentions of the other side.
If he chooses to chase, then his rear troops will inevitably be exposed, and at that time, there will be a risk of being cut into the back row by the opposite side.
And if you choose not to chase, then there are two more situations.
One situation is to leave one's front row troops alone, and the other is to call one's own front row troops back.
In either case, it is not a good choice.
Needless to say, fighting alone, as for the recall of the front row troops, it will inevitably affect the morale of the army at this time.
At the same time, it was a pity to retreat like this with a wave of advantages that he finally played, and besides, the dark elf mages under his command, considering the recovery speed of mana, this spell is really one less than one, and now they have smashed two spells out, so do you just give up?
Chris Evans gritted his teeth and ordered......
"Pass the order and bring back the Dark Samurai Unit 7 and the Spearmen Unit 8 back to guard the rear troops, as well as the Harpy troops? How many troops are left in the Harpy Force? ”
"Returning to His Majesty the Elven King, the Harpy Banshee Troop is now less than three hundred troops."
Hearing this, Chris Evans' eyelids jumped obviously.
The Harpy is definitely a lot of troops among the many classes of their dark elves, but before, under his orders, the Harpy troops continued to attack the opposite airship troops and the dwarf helicopter team, and the wave after wave of continuous accumulation of troop attrition, no matter how many troops can't withstand it!
At this thought, Chris Evans, whose two eyebrows were already twisted together, spoke again......
"Mobilize three Harpy squads to the sky above the rear row of troops to keep on guard, and the rest of the troops are all staring at the air troops on the opposite side."
"Yes!"
The Harpy Force, a squad is composed of ten Harpys, and three squads are thirty, which is nothing, even if it is placed in a civilization with a scarce population like the Elven Civilization.
However, if it is only used to perform vigilant tasks, and if it is necessary to open a buff to assist, thirty harpys can actually make do with it.
One order after another was quickly implemented, and it was clear that Chris Evans was determined to pursue this wave.
Now that his dark elf army is gaining momentum, the morale of the army is approaching a hundred, and the situation is also dominant, where does he still have a reason to cowardly?
If he can use this wave of offensive to severely suppress the strength of the Celestial Empire army on the opposite side, his life will undoubtedly be much better after that.
"Your Majesty, the rear troops on the Dark Elves side are in pursuit, but he has placed a considerable number of escort troops around him."
Listening to the report from the radio equipment, Hua Ye, who was holding a telescope and watching the battle situation, answered in a deep voice.
"Wait, let them advance a little longer, and by the way, let the dark elf mage army throw another spell."
Since the other side has come out with a dark elf mage force, it means that this army can still release spells.
Chris Evans knew that Hua Ye would have a good chance of targeting his rear troops, so he was on guard.
But on the other hand, Hua Ye actually knew that it was impossible for the other side to rush out so stupidly, and he would definitely make some arrangements.
So, the next step is to see who is better at them.
The battle continued, and as the battle progressed, on the side of the Celestial Empire army, the number of casualties continued to rise, and the black knights wielding big swords one by one were simply fierce and terrifying.
After several rushes and kills, with the increase in the characteristics of the troops, their combat power has increased by at least 50%!
With a wave of the big sword, among the ordinary human soldiers, there was no enemy of theirs at all.
This kind of amplification, called 'Dark Touch', is one of the enhanced trait items of the high-level class of the Black Knight, and it is needless to say how effective it is, but this trait item is not without limitations.
As a simple example, the Black Knight is like a balloon that has been inflated, and once the 'Dark Touch' enhancement trait is cast, it will keep inflating the balloon little by little after the attack hits.
But there is a limit to the bearing capacity of a balloon, if the air filled into it exceeds the bearing limit of the balloon, it will 'bang' and burst directly!
In order to prevent the Black Knight from suddenly blowing himself up in battle, there is another item that will be unlocked along with the 'Dark Touch', and that is......
"Hate! Evil! Chop!!! ”
With a roar, a panting and overwhelmed black knight resolutely swung his strongest sword.
At that moment, on the blade of the sword, the dark power surged wildly, and finally turned into a powerful slash, slashing towards the group of Celestial Empire soldiers closest to him!!
