Chapter 265: Frontal Battlefield
"Go and send a message to Marlon, and limit him to arrive at the battlefield within half a day. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"
"Yes."
After giving orders to his adjutant with a wry smile, Gusha could only look at the army in the distance that had gradually formed a formation.
He didn't actually want to take his own men and horses to fight with Dane. Winning or losing, if the strength of the two sides is similar, there will inevitably be huge losses. And the 3,000 people under him, but the core force of his iron nail post is thrown to the battlefield to fight with others, which is really distressing.
But what can be done? He is not a warlord who can call the shots himself, and Governor Conry has given an order, can he still not listen?
I'm going to fight hard.
"Why don't you go to save Shawan Harbor? Alas......" sighed, and he could only command his army to prepare for battle.
Under his command, the Iron Nail Legion put on a very conservative defensive formation.
It is true that his goal in battle is to destroy Dane's main army, but he still knows how to fight.
Since the current situation is that Dane intends to break through him, he will simply stick to it. Not to win steadily, but to be able to drag Marlone's army to the scene. At that time, the combined strength of the two sides will definitely exceed the entire army of Dane, and under the encirclement, the odds of victory will be greater.
As for whether Malone will arrive as scheduled, he is not worried at all. With the three guts of that guy, he didn't dare to play tricks.
Many years ago, when Morno began to rise and peeked into the harbor of Sha Bay, it was the Governor of Conley who gave Malone enough support behind his back to give him the ability to keep half of the port under the constant pressure of Morno. If it weren't for that, Morno would have destroyed Marlon long ago.
Now, Gusha, who came with the orders of the Governor of Conry to completely eliminate Dane, does not believe that Marlon dares to disobey his orders. If he dares to disobey, no matter whether Dane dies or not, and whether he can survive this battle or not, he Ma Long will definitely die a bad death for his whole family anyway. And Governor Conry wants to re-prop up a proxy warlord in Marlon Manor, and that is not too simple.
It is precisely because of this that he will not choose a person to work hard with Dane, and then let Malone clean up the mess. In his eyes, where is it important for Ma Long's army to have people in his own hands? I believe that Governor Kangli will also support his idea, and the more than 2,000 descendants of Chaos City are not only the power in the hands of his Gusha, but also the heart and soul of Governor Kangri.
The rumbling of war drums and hammers sounded, and when the Iron Nail Legion had just set up a defensive formation, Dane's army began to press in in full.
Gu Sha, who was sitting on a war horse, clearly saw that the main battle formation, which was composed of hundreds of hoplites as the core and thousands of light infantry, was pressing towards him step by step. Looking around, the whistling wolf cavalry swam constantly waving scimitars, and there was no doubt that if the other party seized the opportunity, these wolf cavalry could be fatal under high-speed maneuvering.
"The main forces of the White Wolf Castle are all here......" Gusha let out a long sigh, but the corners of his mouth were smiling again, "but do you think that if you press it up like this, you can defeat us?" What a naivety! ”
As Dane's troops began to march, the Nail Legion stopped moving after forming a defensive formation. Obviously, Gusha has handed over the initiative, and after the iron bucket array is set up, it is waiting for you to gnaw.
As the attacker, the White Wolf Fort Legion was not in a hurry at all, and its movements were still so steady. When both sides have already made up their minds not to play tricks in the last battle, and no one is ready to back down, then there is no need to rush at all, anyway, the fight will start sooner or later.
The distance between the two legions was getting closer and closer, and when they were separated by a few hundred meters, those with better eyesight could already clearly see the hideous faces of the soldiers on the opposite side when they waved their weapons and shouted loudly.
At this distance, the Iron Nail Legion could no longer remain still. The whole team began to rise from the spot and approach forward with the command from the ancient sofa.
"Boom!" There were several loud bangs, and the first to strike was the artillery in the Dane army.
Nine cannons were lined up, and the shells fired were very deterrent. Although some of the shells were empty, the phalanx of archers under the two archers under Gusha, who were unlucky enough to be hit directly, were hit more heavily. In the scene of yellow sand and flesh flying together, even if the formation standing was not dense, at least twenty archers died under this deterrent artillery salvo.
Seeing that there were so many cannons in Dane's military formation, Gusha was also a little discolored.
"I've heard that White Wolf Castle has a workshop for making cannons, but it's only been a few months, and there are nine?" He felt a bit of a headache, but not so much that he couldn't do anything about it.
At the sound of an order, the artillery of the Iron Nail Gang Regiment also began to wield its might.
His subordinates are not as extravagant as Dane to launch nine cannons, that thing is expensive, gunners are not easy to train, and the price of cannonballs as consumables is even more expensive, even if Gusha has the support of Kang Li behind him, it is difficult for him to come up with stronger long-range firepower.
He only had six guns in his hand, and now he was all aimed at Dane's artillery position and began to fire.
But there is no need to think about it at all, in such a confrontation, it must be that Dane's side is more advantageous. The bombardment intensity of three more guns was directly a third higher.
In two or three rounds of bombardment, the artillery positions of both sides were lost. On the White Wolf Fort side, two guns were directly reimbursed, and the artillery of the Iron Nail Legion paid the price of four gunner groups in order to achieve such a result.
However, the artillery can't do anything against the other side, which is actually expected by Gusha. When he saw that there were three more artillery pieces than his own, he knew that he would definitely not take advantage of the bombardment.
But so what? It would be naïve to think that he had no other way to deal with the artillery of the White Wolf Castle Legion!
From the military formation of the Iron Nail Gang, three clusters of black light were gathering. In the blink of an eye, these three black lights merged into one, and the power of the shadow directly summoned a black gate in the artillery array of the White Wolf Fort Legion, and countless tentacles stretched out from the gate, directly sweeping towards the artillery and artillery men who were close at hand.
In just a few moments, the black gate swept four artillery guns with gunners. Then there was a thud, and the dark door burst open and disappeared without a trace, leaving behind the wreckage of four cannons huddled together.
This is the power of spells, far more terrifying than artillery on the battlefield! (To be continued.) )
