Chapter 1171: Duel
May 28, Wangcheng Campus.
At 9 o'clock in the morning, Ouyang Shuo, accompanied by Minister of Military Affairs Du Ruhui and Shi Wansui, commander of the City Guards, entered the school and sat in the middle of the viewing platform. Scarlet Romance, Xie Siyun and other guild leaders sat in designated positions under the guidance of the Praetorian Guards.
The Praetorian Guard Academy is a forbidden military place and cannot be entered by ordinary people.
Flags were displayed on the school ground, and every hundred paces, there was a Praetorian Guard wearing bright light armor standing guard, heavily guarded. In the center of the school field, the two dueling teams were already in place.
What Daxia sent this time was the first battalion of the first brigade of the first division of the first army of the city guard army, which was personally led by the corps commander Zhao Sihu. From the number alone, it can be seen that this is the strongest battalion of the city guard.
Ouyang Shuo's exclusion of the Divine Martial Guard and the Praetorian Guard does not mean that he really despises the Guild Elite Regiment.
The first battalion was a mixed battalion of sword and shield men, pikemen, and crossbowmen, which was also the regular configuration of the Bactrian infantry.
The experience of previous wars has proved that the establishment of a single arm is not suitable for complex battlefields, lacks flexibility and resilience, and only by mixing the establishment can we truly bring into play the advantages of each branch of the armed forces and enhance the lethality and survivability of the battlefield.
After everyone arrived, the dueling host Du Ruhui read out the rules of the duel.
"This duel is a life-and-death fight, whether it is alive or dead, it ends with the destruction of one side or surrender, the duel location is limited to the designated area of the school, and the battle method is not limited to ......"
After reading out, Du Ruhui glanced at Wang Shang, saw Wang Shang nodded, and immediately said: "The duel begins!" ”
"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! ”
The war drums beat and shook the sky, gradually arousing the blood of the soldiers on the field.
Because it was a school duel, there were no tricks to speak of, relying on strength, in the sound of war drums, the two teams went from slow to fast, roaring angrily, and killing each other.
From this alone, you can see the difference between the regular army and the elite regiment.
Although the elite group has been consciously controlled, after going fast, the queue is still untidy, and even faintly disjointed. On the other hand, the city guards, like a collective, always ensure the formation of the phalanx.
When the blood-colored romance on the stage was seen, he could only shake his head helplessly.
This is something that can't be helped, no matter how much the player trains, without military regulations, he will never be able to enter the role. Even so, the blood romance is not worried at all.
The battlefield battle relies on strength, not any bird formation, as long as you can kill the enemy, it doesn't matter if your queue is neat or not.
In the high-speed movement, the archers in the elite group finally showed their ability, they could actually shoot on the move, and one by one sharp arrows shot at the city guards, which caused some interference to the city guards.
In the blink of an eye, three or four people fell to the ground after being hit by arrows, and the entire queue was inevitably affected.
Seeing this, Commander Zhao Sihu ordered: "Block!" ”
With a "brush", one shield is either in front of you, or raised above your head to block the attack of bows and arrows. In this way, although blocking the rain of arrows, the movement speed and formation will inevitably be affected twice.
In the first round of the competition, the elite team had a slight advantage.
As he spoke, he saw that the two teams were about to collide with each other.
At this moment, the city guards suddenly changed, and they saw that the two rows of sword and shield soldiers who were charging in front suddenly turned from a straight line to an arc, and in a blink of an eye, they formed a circle with the back row of sword and shield soldiers.
"Formation!" The blood-colored romantic expression suddenly became solemn.
This array is a simplified version of the "Three Thousand Wheel Array" designed by Sun Bin for Shenwuwei, with the periphery guarded by sword and shield soldiers, the pikemen ambushed in the middle, and the crossbowmen hidden in the center.
It stands to reason that changing formations while running is a taboo for soldiers, and if you don't pay attention, you may be scattered by the enemy, but the city guards are facing an elite regiment, they have no cavalry, and they have no heavy armor.
In the face of such a steel fortress, the elite group seemed to be a little helpless, and the solution they gave was to swim to both sides in an attempt to surround the city guards.
This may seem like a good idea, but it makes a common sense mistake. There is a cloud in the art of war: "Ten rules surround it." "The number of elite regiments is the same as that of the city guards, they are all five hundred, how can they be surrounded?
Zhao Sihu stood in the middle of the circle formation, and when he saw the enemy separated, he immediately ordered: "Thorn!" ”
"Kill!"
In an instant, more than 100 spears struck from the shield and stabbed out like lightning, and the attack range of the entire large array was extended at once.
Some elite players miscalculated the range of the spear and stuck it too close, and were shot immediately. These players are also strong, one by one, they perform their maneuvering skills, twisting left and right in the spear forest, and avoiding them one by one.
There was the fierce one, and even took the opportunity to counterattack, and the sword light flashed, and a spear was cut in two.
In terms of individual combat power, these elite players are indeed overwhelmed by the city guards, and they all have unique skills, speed and agility are above the level, and the exercises are also five shots and eight doors, which is a headache.
Seeing the bloody romance on the stage, he nodded with satisfaction, his self-confidence was not without reason.
"Close!" Zhao Sihu was unmoved.
"Brush", the spear was instantly withdrawn, and the adventurous players were also quietly relieved when they saw this, and they were a little bold, and they wanted to take this opportunity to bully themselves and prepare to attack the outer sword and shield soldiers.
"Thorn!"
It was only ten seconds before and after, and the spear stabbed out again, still as fast as lightning.
This time, the players of the elite group finally miscalculated, and in the blink of an eye, five or six players were stabbed by spears, seriously injured and fell to the ground, blood flowed everywhere, and some couldn't help but scream.
In order to cope with the challenge of Planet Hope, the pain perception in the game is at least 50%, and elite players will even take the initiative to adjust it to more than 70%. Some madmen are even more painful.
Like Ouyang Shuo, the pain perception has gradually increased from 50% at the beginning, and it was already 100% last year. After the adjustment, it is also very beneficial to the practice of the exercises.
Players shout, that's a normal thing, and no one will despise it.
Seeing this, medical soldiers rushed up on the periphery of the school and carried them out of the battlefield for treatment.
What Ouyang Shuo wanted was to subdue the elite group, not to increase the killing.
Even if it is a life-and-death duel, what can be saved is still tried to be saved, so there are medical guards on standby at any time. Seeing the bloody romance, a hint of complexity flashed in his eyes, he didn't know that there was such an arrangement before.
The fighting on the battlefield continues.
The individual players of the elite group are indeed strong, and the city guards are not vegetarians, their moves are extremely simple, only a few moves back and forth, but each move has been trained thousands of times.
Just like the stabbing of a pikeman, he usually practiced repeatedly in the military camp, and he had already turned into a body memory, and under the command of Zhao Sihu, it was like a machine, and he assassinated accurately without error.
This kind of offensive is something that adventurers don't have.
The battle mode of the regular army and the elite regiment has been well demonstrated in this battle, and it can only be said that each has its own merits. It would be terrifying if we could learn from each other's strengths and combine each other's strengths.
Scarlet Romance is a smart person, and when he saw this, he was already thoughtful. Perhaps, Ouyang Shuo's real intention in agreeing to the duel was to let them, the guild leaders, see this clearly.
The elite group joins the legion, which seems to be constrained, but in fact, it is to lay a solid foundation for the future to gain a foothold on the Planet of Hope, whether it is for the elite group or for the individual player, the benefits definitely outweigh the disadvantages.
Come to think of it, Scarlet Romance still wants to win this duel.
At this moment, there was a new change in the battlefield situation, and in the face of the wheel formation put forward by the city guards, the elite group came up with a way to crack it.
I saw them in groups of five, lift one of them with his hands, and jerk forward, like a trapeze, this person crossed the outer and middle circles of the city guards, and went straight to the core.
This is also an alternative decapitation operation.
The players of the elite group are all extraordinary, and they are ready to attack when they are in the air, like a fish leaping to the top, killing towards the inner circle, and the momentum is unstoppable.
"Shoot!"
Although Zhao Sihu was a little surprised, the military order was not slow at all, in the past on the battlefield, Zhao Sihu really did not encounter such "wonderful" tactics, and the regular army could not play this set.
