Chapter 383: Shooting! Press in!
The corpses of the six Warlocks were casually thrown from the tower, just like six dolls that had been discarded by children because they had been broken. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
However, the griffons' offensive did not end there.
Once they had killed the six Warlocks, they immediately turned to the other two Warlocks on the platform.
One by one, the warlocks were undoubtedly preparing some spells to use against his griffin cavalry, and some of them were faster in casting, and the spells were about to come out.
However, at this time, the griffin cavalry had been holding in their hands for a long time, and the Storm Hammer, which had never been used, was decisively thrown out by them!
Isn't such a killer weapon that has been in his hands for so long just to change the situation of the war at such a critical moment?
The Stormhammer was thrown out much faster than the spell could be cast. Those warlocks had no way to change the spells they had released, and a dozen of them threw out two fireballs. And at the same time, more than a dozen storm hammers, with thunderous tails, roared towards the warlocks on the high platform!
Those warlocks don't have the skills to deal with the Stormhammer in the blink of an eye. After being baptized by a wave of Storm Hammers, there was only one Warlock left standing on the high platform who was still able to maintain his ability to cast spells. And the biggest reason why this guy was able to survive was that he was lucky enough to have some magic props that could be stimulated and had defensive effects, so he escaped with his life.
The griffons have done their job perfectly!
Although, the griffons paid a price for this, and the two fireballs that the warlocks finally snatched hit one of the griffon cavalrymen, knocking him out of mid-air and onto the ground, surrounded by a large number of soldiers, and unable to fly again; In addition, there is a griffon, which is shot by a bow and arrow from the ground. With griffons' defenses, they are not particularly afraid of arrows. But the arrow, which could have been shot by one of the archers in the army, hit the griffon's eye and pierced the skull.
However, although there were losses, at the cost of two griffins, almost all the enemy's magic power on the high platform was wiped out, and such a result must be worth it.
The griffons who climbed into the sky again were no longer threatened by the archers below, and after the enemy's spellcaster power was almost wiped out by the surprise attack they had just had, they reverted to the posture of the sky overlord, slaughtering the batriders in mid-air.
The big bats were no match for the lions in the sky, and despite their brave fights, they continued to be killed.
And when the battle in mid-air was raging, the ground armies of the two sides finally exchanged hands.
The crossbows and arrows of Dane's crossbowmen and rangers rained down on the enemy's formation. In the camp of the enemy opposite them, Army Group North had more than twice as many archers as Dane's side, but in the confrontation, it was completely inferior.
The elven rangers' arrows are too accurate, when the opponent can only choose one shooting direction and get the hit rate according to the probability, the rangers can still maintain a hit rate of two percent in the case of long-distance shooting - one enemy every five arrows, this probability, plus the number of six hundred longbowmen in the two ranger brigades, the reality represented is too terrifying. This almost means that after a round of arrow rain, the opposing archer army will have to die hundreds of people just in the hands of the rangers.
In addition, there are also two large groups of crossbowmen, those crossbows that rely on rollers and turn up to shoot extremely fast, although the accuracy is not comparable to that of the rangers, and even weaker than ordinary archers, but the speed of shooting ten times faster makes up for everything.
Just like this rain of arrows like locusts, the long-range firing units of Army Group North already showed faint signs of being unable to hold on. When the two sides were firing at each other, the casualties were exchanged, and Dane looked at it from a distance, and if he roughly estimated it with the naked eye, he got a look of fifteen to one. If he really shot slowly like this, Dane would only need to pay less than two hundred casualties of archers to be able to shoot over three thousand people on the opposite side!
It's just that the war won't go on like this, and the enemy can't really be like a target, staying here and letting Dane's troops shoot. In fact, the archers under Dane's command, in this period, the beginning of the war, played the biggest role in being able to cover the charge of their own troops, and by the way, make the enemy's charge less smooth.
That's already a big advantage.
Dane's side is the vanguard and the white wolf guard who can fight tough battles. And on the side of Army Group North, the one at the forefront was also a hoplite regiment.
Originally, both sides formed a very tight phalanx formation and pressed forward. But when it came time to fight, the white wolf guards of Dane's first wing were almost still able to maintain the most complete posture, and the formation was not chaotic at all. The oncoming heavy infantry was not only too embarrassed by the arrows, but in any case, after being shot over a lot of people, the formation would inevitably become less neat, and there were many gaps.
There were not many soldiers who were shot dead or wounded, but the scattered formation made the heavy infantry from Chaos City and from Cinderella suffer a great loss in the head-to-head confrontation with the White Wolf Guards.
The battle between hoplites and hoplites almost represents a contest between the two armies, which can be called the mainstay of each other. Of course, the White Wolf Defenders were under a lot of pressure due to the fact that the enemy was outnumbered, but with the advantage of their previous successful long-range offensives, the White Wolf Defenders were able to gain a frontal advantage after engaging up to twice as many enemy heavy infantry regiments.
Heavy shields and blades collide fiercely! The battle between armor and armor was heavy and ferocious.
The white wolf guards pressed forward step by step with shields and war hammers in a tight formation, while the opponent's heavy infantry regiment was unable to form a-for-tat posture due to the lack of strict formation at the beginning, and was pressed to retreat step by step in the battle.
Hackett, who was sitting in the rear of the army, was already extremely serious at the moment.

Yesterday I was very depressed, and I really didn't write.
Why are people so annoyed when they live? (To be continued.) )
