Chapter 608: The Scales Tilt
In the face of the strength of the dwarves, the elves are not completely powerless. Although the elves are not a martial race, it does not mean that they will not fight, on the contrary, these guys who have lived long enough have a lot of combat experience.
Except for the failure of the first round of cavalry charge, the elves did not fall behind at all in the stalemate stage, and that was also because they did not expect the dwarves to have a magic weapon to restrain the salvo, otherwise from the beginning of the war, the elves almost occupied an absolute dominant position.
At this moment, the dwarves did not dare to fire their ballistas at will, but the elven archers were not restricted in the slightest, and were constantly firing their bows. Although the battlefield is extremely chaotic, these talented archers of the elves show their amazing archery skills to the fullest.
At such a close distance, it's a matter of where to hit it. Although the dwarves were heavily armoured, the elven archers were always able to find gaps in their armor and send their arrows into it. Moreover, the elven archers also choose their targets in a very orderly manner, and they hardly pay much attention to ordinary dwarven warriors, but it seems that all kinds of dwarves with special abilities have been given special care.
Prager was obviously also on the list of special care, and after only a few tens of seconds, he became a hedgehog alive. However, although Prager looked a little miserable, he was actually not seriously injured. As a dual-wielding war giant, he doesn't wear another layer of chain mail under heavy armor, although this thing does not affect his actions, but in the end it is not small, wearing heavy armor and wearing this thing, even a dwarf with infinite strength is enough to choke.
But Prager has stone skin, his body is as hard as iron, and with his strong muscles, he is not much better than a real stubborn stone. Most of the arrows that came in through the cracks in the armor were only the arrows piercing the body, and they were all skin wounds, which were not painful for the dwarves with rough skin and thick flesh.
But it is always a little inconvenient to fight with so many arrows on his body, and he can't care about pulling them out one by one, Prager directly slanted the axe, like shaving his beard, shaved the arrow feathers on his body from top to bottom, although there was still a short section left on his body, but it was harmless, and he continued to fight.
But not every dwarven warrior is as resistant as Pragg, and more and more dwarves are being shot by the elves. Seeing this scene, Changhe Sunset was a little surprised: "Yo, who is the commander of Huangtu this time?" Can you bear this? If you continue to fight like this, when the mages of the elven clan have finished recuperating and recovering, even if these dwarves resist roughness, I am afraid that they will inevitably take off a few layers of skin. But when he took out the telescope made by engineering and looked at it, he understood the reason why Huang Tu had been holding back his hands.
Dwarves don't like to rely on magic, and they don't love technology as much as gnomes, but they eventually find their own way. The roar came from far and near, and the dwarves' most powerful weapon of ground warfare, the steam tank, finally appeared. To be honest, the tactical literacy of the dwarves is really good, and the Butan Coordination actually plays well.
In the face of such war machines, the elves without large-scale magical support were obviously unable to bear it, and their positions were constantly retreating. Although there were only seven or eight steam tanks, each tank was protected by a large number of dwarven infantry, and there were also a large number of dwarven musketeers, it was obviously difficult to destroy these iron boxes.
However, even so, the Dwarves did not advance at a good rate, mainly because the Steam Tank was a bit slow and lacked enough heavy firepower, mostly acting as a mobile bunker.
Just when the sun was setting on the long river and struggling with whether to let Liang Ming make a move in advance, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he laughed and said: "God help me, pass the order, all the latent units will start attacking, try to pick important targets to attack, don't worry about these Iron Kings." The messenger who had been standing beside the sunset of the long river immediately conveyed the task.
What can make the sunset over the long river so happy must be a major benefit. I don't know when there were suddenly a few more spellcasters in the elven clan, and a wide range of spells were released one after another, almost enveloping the entire battlefield.
However, even NPCs have great difficulty covering the entire battlefield with spells, after all, almost 20,000 people are working together, and the area alone is not small. However, instead of casting lethal spells, use some supporting skills, and this becomes entirely possible.
Fossils are mud, and it is this spell that has no lethal power that drags the entire army of dwarves into a situation where it is difficult to move an inch. The indestructible heavy armor became the culprit for dragging the dwarven warriors into the boundless abyss at this moment, while the elves, who were already known for their lightness, were hardly affected, and the best of them could even use the sinking discarded equipment as a foothold to complete the attack between tossing and jumping. Of course, there are still some elves who are a little constrained, but this does not affect the overall situation.
Although dwarven warriors usually regard their armor and weapons as their second life, and some of their equipment has even been passed down through generations, after all, dwarves are not all dead-headed, and some people reacted in the first time and discarded the heavy armor on their bodies in the mire.
In the end, under the roar of the dwarven generals, most of the dwarves reluctantly took off their heavy armor. But even so, it is still not as good as the elves jumping up and down in action. After all, even if the armor can be thrown, the weapon can't be thrown, or if there is any fighting, just surrender. You know, almost all the weapons used by dwarves are heavy weapons, and with their thick bodies, even if the elves are fully armoured, they are not as heavy as them.
Fortunately, even if the dwarves don't trust magic very much, they still have some bloodline inheritance spellcasters after all. One of the commanders of the Dwarven Legion this time, Latheo. Stone Fist is a stone lord, and although there are a few spellcasters like him, there are a few in the dwarf camp, but compared to the elves, it is really not enough. As soon as he used mud to turn into stone to open up a few footholds for his compatriots, he was immediately destroyed by the mages of the elven clan.
Dusse would have stripped naked, except for the shield and war hammer in his hand, there was only a pair of underwear left, but he still stood by Lateau's side with a resolute face, after all, this was the first task given to him by the captain, and he had to do it well anyway!
