Chapter Ninety-Nine: The Last Battle
"What's going on? What's going on? They were just five hundred orcs, how could they be so powerful? Where did they get so many ballistas? And can shoot so intensively? The commander roared in his heart, but he couldn't do anything about it.
Just now, he also saw with his own eyes the fierceness of Xiao Yu's firepower. However, what made him elusive was how Xiao Yu could cause such a fierce firepower and form such an amazing strike effect.
With such a dense shooting, it is estimated that at least hundreds of ballistas can be formed, but Xiao Yu only has a total of five hundred orcs, how can he form such a dense and continuous shooting of crossbow arrows?
Originally, he thought that with this kind of ten-person phalanx of infantry, he could easily kill the other party's orcs. However, unexpectedly, he was beaten by the other party again and returned with a fiasco.
In this era, the transmission of news is not as developed as in Xiao Yu's time, and they have already come out in advance to ambush, so it is naturally impossible to know that Xiao Yu has purchased so many ballistas in Tito City.
Moreover, after Xiao Yu bought the ballista, he was covered with cloth on the car, and ordinary people couldn't see it. Some of the Assassins came to spy on them, but they were either killed by Tyrande and Osilia, or they were not visible from a distance.
Even if they knew that Xiao Yu had purchased a weapon in the Hammer of the God of War, they would have thought that they were going to bring it back to the Lion King Collar to use. They definitely didn't expect that Xiao Yu was used against them.
Because, in this day and age, unless there is a very powerful magical item, there are very few strategic weapons that can completely change an occupancy.
These ballistas, if they were placed in other people's hands, would not have such great power, first, they did not have Xiao Yu's idea of shooting with fire, and second, they did not have a powerful class like orcs, they could hold the ballista to shoot, and then quickly change positions and fill.
Moreover, the ballistas that ordinary people buy are all slots, so that they can aim better, but Xiao Yu directly buys five slots, which is completely covering the attack and does not seek accuracy. Originally, the Hammer of the God of War only had three slots at most, but Xiao Yu forcibly let them add two more, completely ignoring the accuracy. Although it was a bit of an extra payment, it was worth it.
All this is a collision of advanced military thinking.
Just imagine, when the machine gun was just invented, all the military scientists of that era refused to use the machine gun, because the machine gun cost bullets, poor Makqin participated in a World Expo and did not receive a few orders, until many years later, people slowly realized the importance and epochality of the machine gun, and became the biggest killer of World War I, which directly led to the emergence of trench warfare, resulting in the death of tens of millions of people, which has never been seen in any war in history.
Even the people of that era did not realize the importance of the machine gun, an era-changing weapon, let alone how the people of this era could realize the power of the large-area scattering of the five-groove ballista.
After the shooting, Xiao Yu ordered the orcs to continue running and retrieve the used crossbow arrows. Although they brought a lot this time, they also had to return the particles to the warehouse, this kind of covering blow is cool, but it is indeed a crossbow arrow.
Seeing the orcs picking up crossbow arrows there, the commander of the human cavalry didn't dare to send people up to attack at all, he was completely frightened by Xiao Yu and them.
If it was only once, he would still be able to accept it, and two such large-scale fire-gathering attacks would have completely overwhelmed him.
As a result, the battle dragged on like this.
Xiao Yu ordered a few orc soldiers to stand guard, and the others rested in place, played backgammon, and passed the time, otherwise, how tired it would be to stand stupidly all the time.
As a result, the human commander vomited blood and found that the orcs were chatting there, bragging, and playing chess, and they didn't take them seriously at all.
Insults, this is a naked insult to them.
However, in the face of this insult, there is nothing they can do. They didn't dare to charge at all now, otherwise, it would still be the same result as just now.
Help? Where are the reinforcements? This is not the Duchy of Karn, the army can be moved at will, and their three thousand cavalry running to someone else's territory is already taking a big risk, once it is found that it is the troops of the Duchy of Karn, it will cause a conflict between the two countries. Although they didn't carry any banners, they disguised themselves as robbers, but everyone is stupid? Can't see how elite these cavalrymen are? Where did such elite robbers come from?
Moreover, if there is too much military mobilization, people will not find out?
Fall back? How to retreat? Simlai has always been strict in governing the army, and if he goes back like this, he will be destroyed, and the whole family will not have to live. They can die on the battlefield, but they can't go back like this. This is the character of the Grand Duke of Himmlai.
Drag? How do they drag? Xiao Yu can drag it here, it's really not good, Xiao Yu can also run back to Tito City and stay for a few more days, because Xiao Yu entered here blatantly, belonging to the passing nobles, and the other party will not do anything to them. However, these people are illegal immigrants, and they will be attacked if they are discovered.
The commander was completely out of options at this point. Originally, when he received this mission, he also felt that it was an opportunity to show his bravery, and he could take back many orc heads and hang them on the wall to decorate, bringing glory to the family.
After all, three thousand elite cavalry, no matter how you count, can kill five hundred orcs, not to mention that they are still elite. However, their elite did not have any chance to show at all, and they were already dead before they got to the front of the other party at all.
They and Xiao Yu don't seem to be fighting on the same plane, and they don't let you have a chance to shoot at all.
This is tactics.
Now, this commander finally understands the mood of Lancelot, the commander of the Death Scythe infantry. In the face of such an opponent, he can only have four words, and he wants to cry without tears.
"This Lion King Duke is really a real general, I underestimate him." At this time, the commander said lightly. At this moment, his heart had also calmed down, because he knew that he probably wouldn't be able to go back alive.
Since it is already a mortal end, there is nothing to fear.
At that time, it was the same against the Death Scythe infantry, just at the beginning, the opponent had already been defeated, and now it is the same, just at the beginning, the victory has been achieved, this is the strength of the first-class lion king duke of this empire.
He lost, and he was convinced.
"Wait, wait until the evening, all of you join me in the last attack, the glory of the Death Scythe infantry is not to be desecrated, and the glory of our Brilliant Knights is not to be desecrated. Tonight, if you don't succeed, you will become a benevolent. ”
In the end, the commander said something like this.
When all the cavalry listened, their hearts sank, and they also knew that they had no way to retreat, only this last chance to fight hard, the last chance to wash away the shame of their defeat with their own blood.
Seeing that they no longer attacked, but began to gather together to rest, Xiao Yu immediately knew what they were thinking. Immediately, after Xiao Yu gave a few orders, he went to take a nap so that he could recuperate and watch the battle at night.
Xiao Yu remembered that he used to stay up late to watch football, and he had to sleep in the afternoon and then stay up all night at night.
At night, all the orcs sat and rested, and they weren't overly guarded, except for Osilia and Tyrande, as well as a few orc warriors.
Tyrande's Elven Eye can play a huge role at night, being able to see far away, and night vision, so the other party's every move can't escape his surveillance at all.
Xiao Yu invited Xiwen over and played backgammon with her.
In the past, if Xiao Yu invited Xiwen so rashly, Xiwen would definitely not have come to play chess with him. But through this experience, Xiwen's attitude towards Xiao Yu has quietly changed, and now she is in the middle of a battle and is nervous, so she still came over to play chess with Xiao Yu.
Xiwen is actually very smart, but she has a low self-esteem, because she has always been unpopular in the family.
Now, Xiwen has completely let go of her burdens, her heart is bright, and she looks more beautiful. While playing chess, Xiao Yu secretly looked at Xiwen's radiant and beautiful face, occasionally glanced at her thighs, and lost several games in a row.
All night, the other side did not attack, as if waiting for something.
Xiao Yu knew that they were waiting for the opportunity, waiting for the darkest moment before dawn to attack, because they wanted the orcs to wait for a night of fighting and exhaust their physical strength.
The moment before dawn is also the time when people are most tired, and it is the best time to attack, and since the commander of the other side can be the commander of a cavalry regiment of three thousand people, he is certainly not a fool.
But they didn't know that Xiao Yu directly put these orcs to sleep, and only let Tyrande, Osilia and a few orc soldiers patrol.
If you want to play this kind of psychological tactic, how could Xiao Yu be fooled.
Sure enough, when there was still an hour before dawn, the whole world was shrouded in darkness, and it seemed to be a large piece of black cloth that covered the whole heaven and earth.
At this time, Xiwen was already asleep in Xiao Yu's carriage because she was tired, her long eyelashes were trembling slightly, and she didn't know what kind of good dreams she was having.
At this time, Tyrande came to the carriage and said lightly to Xiao Yu: "They are here." ”
