Chapter 298: Victory in the First Battle
Chu Ge led his troops to the outside of the barracks, he did not rashly attack the enemy camp in the distance, but first found a baron in charge of reconnaissance tasks to inquire about the situation of the enemy army.
"The enemy has not moved much lately," said the baron, "but some patrols will be sent to patrol around the barracks, and the assistants and main forces are hiding in the barracks, the camp of the Black Hand Graff to the east of Jackdaw, the camp of Ordan-MONOCULUS to the west of Jackdaw, and the camp in front of Jackdaw, that is, the one facing us, is the camp of Irontooth Brigie. ”
Chu Ge nodded, "I understand, thank you very much." "Baron, after saying that, he set off with his troops.
He didn't directly attack the three main camps, after all, the difference in strength was too great, and doing so was like death.
Instead, they are ready to attack the surrounding patrols, most of these patrols are a team of thirty or fifty people, most of them are cavalry-based, not many of them, but they have a certain combat effectiveness, just use them to practice, in fact, with Chu Ge's strength state is fully open, it is estimated that it is no problem to brush a team at a time, but there will be a lot of consumption in doing so, and the elixir spell magic scroll or something must be used, and secondly, since it is a strategy game, it has to be a bit of a strategist's posture, and this kind of opportunity to lead troops to fight is not something that can be encountered every time, If you don't take the opportunity, how can you say it's reasonable.
Speaking of which, Chu Ge used to like to play real-time strategy games very much.
Chu Ge led his troops around the outside of Tieya Bridge's barracks twice, and soon found a patrol, the alert range of these patrols was about one or two hundred meters, and when they saw Chu Ge's troops approaching, they immediately met them and put on an offensive posture.
"Prepare for battle, guys, the first team is in front, the second team is behind, the third team protects the two wings, and the cavalry team is ready to charge with me!" Before setting off, Brother Chu had already formed his own troops, the Nok Lancers were the first team, the Nok Hunters and Falcon Ranger were the second team, the Blue Boar Walking Knight and the Nok Axe Soldiers were the third team, and the Winter Wolf Knight and the Dragon Tooth Knight belonged to the cavalry team and followed the main general.
At this time, with Chu Ge's order, the soldiers immediately reacted, and quickly put out a simple formation, the front row of spearmen lined up in two rows, and the archers in the back were also shot in two rows, the axe soldiers and foot knights protected the wings, and Chu Ge also took out the black wolf reins and shook it gently, summoned the black wolf and turned over on the mount, 4 winter wolf knights and 2 dragon tooth knights were all lined up behind him, ready to attack at any time.
Chu Ge also pulled out the Red Shadow Sword with his hand, although he took the boxer route, but in this kind of war scene, it is more appropriate to use weapons to cut people, and if he fights on horseback, the distance of attacking with his fists is too close.
In the blink of an eye, the patrol of the Dread Legion had rushed within the range of the archers, Chu Ge could clearly see the appearance and configuration of these enemies, a total of more than 40 people, all the cavalry, rushing to the front were five or six fear knights, wearing black plate armor, holding black knight spears, followed by more than ten wandering knights, and then more than twenty fear marauders, fear knights and rogue knights were heavy cavalry wearing armor, the difference was that the fear knights even the war horses were wearing vests, running like a moving chariot, and the rogue knight's war horse does not have so much protection. The Dread Marauders, on the other hand, were much poorly equipped, riding inferior horses, wearing leather armor, and carrying a variety of weapons, such as scimitars, broadswords, battle axes, and one-handed swords.
The first to start shooting were the three Falcon Rangers, their Ranger longbows can accurately attack the enemy at a distance of about 100 meters, just 30 meters away these three Falcon Ranger shot two rounds, and successfully killed a fear of marauders, when the enemy's cavalry rushed to a distance of seventy meters, those Nok hunters also began to shoot, these Nok hunters used weapons are hunting bows, the range is much closer, dense arrows rain out like raindrops, sparsely falling on those cavalry bodies, Or pass by them.
In the blink of an eye, four or five fearful marauders were shot in the way of the charge, and the knights who rushed to the front were unscathed, although there were many arrows hanging from their bodies, but none of them died, after all, the armor on their bodies was heavy, and it was not so easy to hang up, but two unlucky rogue knights were shot and killed by their mounts, fell off their horses, and then got up and charged on foot, but it took a little time to rush to them at that speed.
"The cavalry follow me!" As soon as Chu Ge beckoned, he led the cavalry troops to rush towards the enemy, although the 20 spearmen were in full array, but after all, they were low-level troops, and if they were rushed by the cavalry on the opposite side, they would be easily scattered, so they had to block the enemy's impact.
This small cavalry rushed head-on, forming a sharp triangle with Chu Ge's micro arrows, and the cavalry rushing over on the opposite side staggered, most of the time the cavalry hedging will not collide together like a bull, especially the confrontation between small groups of cavalry, usually will be staggered, and attack each other with the weapon in their hands at the moment when they pass each other, so how much damage can be caused depends entirely on their respective reactions and the use of combat skills, of course, the type of weapon is also very important.
The reason why the riding spear occupies a huge advantage in the hedge is because of the long attack distance, you can get the first move, but this kind of first move is of no use to Chu Ge, although Chu Ge has never been a cavalryman, but his reaction speed is far beyond ordinary people, easily dodged a riding spear stabbed in the face, and the backhand sword slashed on the breastplate of the fear knight, and the long sword slashed on the heavy plate armor with a piercing grinding sound, -67! A red letter flashed, but the knight did not fall, but was only slightly injured, Chu Ge thought helplessly, this kind of cavalry hedging one-handed sword or something is really not good, even if there is a speed bonus to chop this kind of iron can, there is not much damage, but unfortunately he can't use a spear, otherwise he can definitely kill the other party in seconds just now.
didn't have time to think about it, another rogue knight approached him in an instant, and the two-handed big sword in his hand slashed head-on, Chu Ge dodged again, and at the same time he also swung out a sword, but this time he learned well, and instead of cutting the body of the man wearing heavy armor, he slashed at the mount that had no protection.
-163, a huge red letter floated out, the war horse was slashed in the head by a sword, the huge speed inertia made the long sword bring a huge wound on the body of the war horse, the war horse screamed, and fell down, the knight on the horse also fell to the ground, and before he could stand up, he was cut off by a winter wolf knight who accompanied Chu Ge behind him.
Chu Ge didn't have time to look at the results behind him, the battle of the cavalry was like this, he could only move forward, he immediately encountered those poorly equipped fear marauders, dealing with these guys, it was much simpler, almost one sword, the sharp Red Shadow Sword and the huge speed inertia cut these guys with weak defense, it was like chopping vegetables and melons, Chu Ge easily slashed and killed two.
The cavalry team led by Chu Ge quickly killed a pair from the enemy's formation, and when Chu Ge turned around and reassembled the cavalry team, he found that the enemy's troops had been killed six or seven in this charge, most of them were fear of marauders, and the dragon tooth knights played the biggest role, their dragon tooth spears could penetrate almost any defense in the process of charging, as the so-called everyone was equal under the cavalry spear, riding a horse and holding a gun to rush to kill with all his might, no armor could stop such a power, and being stabbed was the end of instant killingThis is the power of the heavy cavalry charge, of course, if you are close to these bulky weapons are useless.
The biggest effect of Chu Ge's charge this time was to disrupt the momentum of the opponent's charge, and the originally dense formation became sparse, so that it was difficult to form enough impact to break through the formation of the spearmen, and some of those cavalry rushed to the front of the formation of the spearmen, and were unable to move forward by a bunch of spears, so they could only spin in place, and one simply made a bend and bypassed the side of the infantry position, so that the cavalry team that was originally like iron became a scattered force in twos and threes, And this kind of scattered troops are not good in front of the infantry with a stern formation, even the heavy armored units such as the Dreadknights, who were struck by the Nok spearmen, and slashed by the Nok axe men and the blue boar foot knights, fell one after another.
Those fearful marauders did not dare to be tough, but threw their equipped spears and throwing axes towards the infantry formation, which also caused some casualties, but once they stopped, they immediately became the target of the archers, and they were quickly shot into hedgehogs one after another under the dense rain of arrows, at this time Chu Ge also took his knights to reflexively rush back, completely crushing the enemy's last resistance, the battle ended after 5 minutes, and some cavalry who saw the opportunity to run away, But most of the enemy was annihilated, and soon the battle was over.
Chu Ge counted the troops, this battle lost six spearmen, two Nok hunters, two Nok axe soldiers, and a winter wolf knight, and some wounded troops, after all, most of the troops he led were low-level troops, with little blood and low defense, if he accidentally took a throwing gun, or was cut by a cavalry weapon, it was easy to hang up, but compared to the limited battle damage, his results were greater, and he killed more than 30 enemies, of which more than ten people were knights, although the fear marauders were not knights, But he is also a cavalryman, and he has a lot of merit points, so he has earned a total of more than 1,000 merit points.
