Chapter 26: The Battle of Yungao Mountain

The counties of Suno and Dehrim in the kingdom of Swadia both intersected with the county of Sangmu in the kingdom of Nord. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info Dehrim County has mutinied, and to go back is to go to war. Suno, on the other hand, was the only one of the ten counties in the Kingdom of Swadia that openly supported the princess Elizabeth. The county keeper's name is Valen, and he is a low-key person, usually taciturn, but he didn't expect to be so high-profile one day.

Elizabeth accepted Valen's invitation and followed Teddy's army into Suno County to prepare for the restoration of the country. It's a pity, as the saying goes, don't talk deeply, don't be mean. Valen's support turned out to be just a conspiracy by Francis! After Teddy's army entered Suno, they were ambushed by Valen. Teddy's army suffered heavy losses and was finally forced to retreat to Yungao Mountain.

Within the territory of the Kingdom of Swadia, Suno, Yungao Mountain, Qing.

"Your Highness, while the enemy has not yet sorted out the formation, let's break through quickly! Once the enemy forces have completed the encirclement, our army will have no way to retreat! Arathi suggested to Teddy.

Teddy looked at the enemy army down the hill, and he was now eager to show Elizabeth his strength, "The enemy forces are not strong enough to destroy us. If I break through, I will lose my forces and give the enemy a chance. Recently, the sky has been clear, and this is the time of day. Our side is defending the mountain and the enemy is attacking the mountain, this is a geographical advantage! Our army is surrounded on all fronts, and the soldiers can only fight to the death. The time, place, and people are all on our side, how can our army be invincible! ”

Arathi wanted to say something more, but Dorothy next to her pulled her sleeve and retreated back to her lips. "Hey......."

As the saying goes, born in sorrow, died in peace. The aristocrats always felt that success was an easy thing to do, they received better training and mastered more resources. Maybe they will really succeed, but don't think about how smart you are, there are many smart people among successful people, but there are more smart people among unsuccessful people. Unfortunately, Teddy is a smart person.

.

At dawn, the Suno army set up a position and began to attack the mountain. The drums thundered, and the Swadia army began to march!

"The Swadia Army is on the move! The former army turned into a fish scale formation and prepared to face the battle. The Chinese army is on standby, and the rear army cuts wood and opens stones to make rolling wood and stones. "Teddy commanded the troops to hide at the edge of the forest, condescendingly, the trees could effectively shield the enemy's crossbow arrows, but the bows and arrows of the Nord Kingdom and the rolling wood and stone had no effect.

An archer shot an arrow about eighty meters, and Dorothy walked past the arrow with the former army of the Swadia Kingdom. "Brothers of Nord, the enemy has entered the firing range, release the arrows!"

The soldiers of the Svadia Kingdom began to climb the mountain with their shields and bows and arrows. Svadia did not produce infantry, but in terms of attacking the mountain, the cavalry really did not have much effect, so the infantry was mobilized to attack the mountain. The war is the Shura field, the shield hand in front falls, and the soldiers in the back pick up the shield and continue to move forward.

"The enemy is forty meters away, throwing rolling logs!" Dorothy commanded the Nord Kingdom soldiers in an orderly manner and began to throw the rolling wood and stones downward. The rolling log accelerates with the slope of the mountain, and a single log can bring down a large number of Swadian soldiers.

"The stone focuses on those with shields!" Dorothy didn't forget to add.

The Swadia soldiers climbed up the hill with the corpses of their companions, less than ten meters from the Nord position, and the Swadia soldiers dropped their large shields and began to charge!

"The archers retreat, the spearmen advance and begin hand-to-hand combat!" Dorothy commanded the battle in an orderly manner.

Hand-to-hand combat is a battle with no formation and no technical content. Killing, simple killing, either you die or I live, there is no room for negotiation.

Inch by inch, the enemy climbed the hillside, and the front was plunged into a scuffle. The archers kept retreating, and the spearmen kept pushing forward.

Teddy looked at the battle below with a blank expression. Ted's father had taught him more than once that the battlefield was a bloody battle of soldiers and the callous command of a general. The commander-in-chief of the army should not have emotional fluctuations.

"The order was given, and the Chinese army formed a wild goose formation to surround the enemy troops who were climbing the slope." The standard-bearer waved the big flag, and John commanded the Chinese army from the phalanx to slowly open to the two wings, and the formation became longer and longer. The two wings bypassed the battlering battlefield, the outflanking was successful, and the whole army was closed!

"Kill !!" The Chinese army launched a charge against the encircled enemy troops. Unlike the archers and spearmen of the previous army, the Chinese army was more of a two-handed swordsman. In terms of defense, two-handed swordsmen are weak, and their slow movement speed makes them a living target for archers. The disadvantages are obvious, but the advantages are equally outstanding! The Nord Kingdom, which was already alone in the world with infantry, was blessed with a unique position in combat. Once approached by a two-handed swordsman from the Nord Kingdom, a two-handed swordsman can cut down a squad of 20 infantry from the Swadia Kingdom.

The battle lasted less than an hour, the enemy army was routed, and the chaotic rout ran down the hill. The second disadvantage of the two-handed swordsman: he can't advance when he wins, and he can't escape when he retreats. They could only watch the enemy flee, and they couldn't catch up if they wanted to.

"Bell bell bell" Both sides sounded the sound of gold, Ming Jin withdrew his troops, and the first confrontation ended.

After a break. In the afternoon, the army of the Swadia Kingdom slowly began to attack the mountain again. This time, it was the shield-bearer at the forefront.

Dorothy watched the climbers closely, calculating the range. "Archer, shoot!"

The soldiers of the Svadia Kingdom were forty meters away from Nord, and unlike last time, this time the shieldmen stopped their figures, and the soldiers behind took out their crossbow arrows.

"Is this going to shoot?" Dorothy looked puzzled. And Valen, is that broken? Is it a more garbage country than Swadia's remote?

The soldiers of the Svadia Kingdom did not want to shoot at each other, but set fire to the tarpaulin in the front of the crossbow arrow! Raise the crossbow and shoot!

"Holy! They want to burn the mountain! Dorothy was instantly aware of Valen's plot and hurriedly ordered the spearmen to charge the enemy line to prevent the enemy crossbowmen from continuing to unleash fire bolts. Hundreds of Swadia sergeants blocked the Nord soldiers' path. The Swadians are never in love with war, and they don't change arrows in front of battle. The Svadian crossbowmen retreated after firing an arrow, and the crossbowmen behind them made up for it and continued to shoot.

Teddy looked at the battle below, his brow furrowed, he was not a military idiot, on the contrary, he was an out-and-out genius!

"Mingjin, the front army retreats. The long-range units of the Chinese army are ready to defend and meet the front army. The rear army immediately began to cut down trees and clear a fire barrier! "With the command of the standard-bearer, the army slowly and methodically retreated. After a brief encounter, the second assault of the Swadia kingdom ended.

The fire burned for three whole days. On the night of the third day, Valen's siege network ushered in new reinforcements, which greatly boosted the morale of the Swadia soldiers and dealt a heavy blow to the fighting spirit of the Nord Kingdom army.

Early in the morning of the fourth day, the army of the Kingdom of Svadia launched a third attack on the mountain. Now there are no obstacles to rely on, and the only advantage left by the Nord Kingdom Army is that the ranged troops are a little farther than the Swadia Army, and they will have more physical strength in close combat. But this advantage did not seem to be meaningless after the enemy army came with reinforcements of 8,000 men from four more legions.

"The front army is in a formation of fish scales, ready to defend against the onslaught of the enemy. Soldiers, as the so-called death is born! We are now surrounded by enemies, fight or die! Choose one, draw your sword, and together with me, destroy the enemy in front of you, and return to our homeland alive! "Teddy is a prince after all, and at the critical moment, he drew his sword, boosted the morale of the soldiers, and prepared for a decisive battle, Teddy, who was ready to die.

The best thing about war is that it's unpredictable. Behind the Svadia army, Teddy saw a red cloud drifting in the distance, and the red cloud flew towards them, closer and closer, closer and closer. The last way rampage, into the enemy's main formation! The Swadia Army is on fire! It was a surprise attack by our army!!

"Soldiers! Our cavalry has already attacked the enemy's main position," how could Teddy waste such a good opportunity, "Everyone obeys the order!" With the Nord royal guards as the front army, it will be a frontal formation! Get ready to charge! Goal, Swadia Army! ”
