Chapter 129: Megara Defensive Battle V

Judging from the casualty ratio alone, Lei Zihao's men and horses have achieved a rare victory in the world, but unfortunately, war has never been determined by the casualty ratio......

Among Lei Zihao's men and horses, the only one with the fewest casualties was the Scarlet Crusaders, for no other reason, the half-body plate armor on these Scarlet Crusaders was really powerful!

This time, the crusaders basically used swords and spears and other weapons, and there were no blunt weapons and armor-piercing weapons, and when the most common sword and shield soldier in the crusaders cut a spark on the scarlet crusader bust plate, his expression was very exciting......

In this era, there is no steam engine, let alone hydraulic forging, and the truly practical plate armor needs to be smashed out by craftsmen little by little and tempered repeatedly!

Moreover, due to backward technology, the purity of iron is bottlenecked, and if the plate armor wants to exert good protection, it will inevitably be made very thick, and thick means heavy!

Therefore, in the human world, soldiers wearing plate armor will move slowly, and they need to choose strong soldiers!

After all, from the point of view of cost performance, chain mail and chain mail are much more cost-effective than plate armor to arm soldiers, and plate armor does not have much advantage except for the very good effect of defending against arrows. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Although it can defend against swords and even long weapons in close combat, when the bulky plate armor encounters a blunt armor-piercing weapon that is specifically targeted, it is basically abused......

If you want to wear plate armor and have normal mobility, you need at least the physical fitness of a full-fledged knight!

How could the Crusader soldiers have the physical qualities of a full-fledged knight in all of these blood-colored crusaders in half-body plate armor......

Even if the soldier facing him does not have an armor-piercing weapon or a blunt weapon, he can use dexterity to dodge the slow half-beat attack of this soldier, and look for the gap in the plate armor to pierce in!

Although all the plate armor is covered with iron plates, it is natural that the joints cannot be inlaid with heavy iron plates, otherwise the person who wears it will not become a 'mummy'?

These joint points are the key points of the veterans with personal skills, as long as the technique is solid, a veteran equipped with ordinary weapons will not have a problem killing an ordinary soldier who is suppressed by plate armor and is physically inflexible!

Unless, the person wearing the plate armor belongs to the official knight, then there is basically no solution, the official knight is on the verge of the limit of the human body's physical fitness, even if he wears heavy plate armor, he can kill the enemy like ordinary people, and it will not cause much obstacle to their technical skills!

This is also the official knight of the human world, as long as he is not too poor, he will equip himself with at least one set of half-body plate armor, as for the whole body plate armor, it will hinder the speed of running, except for the formed army, the official knight like the lone ranger rarely wears it.

The Scarlet Crusaders with half-body plate armor, coupled with their physical fitness similar to that of the official knights, and the swarm assault, just like the steamrollers, the Crusaders' 4 waves of attacks were repulsed, and these Scarlet Crusaders played a considerable role!

However, the consumption of the defenders of Megara by these four waves of attacks is not only reflected in the number of people, but also in the consumption of physical strength!

The Crusaders were large enough to pick up and slash back and forth in batches, but the Megara defenders couldn't do that, and every battle was fought by all the soldiers from start to finish!

It can be said that many soldiers of the elite Wei Wushu and the Spartan General Guards were killed because of the excessive physical exertion caused by the long-term battle, which led to the decline in combat power!

Lei Zihao, who was wearing triple armor, resolutely came to the recuperated lancer station, he didn't plan to slip away this time, but rarely wanted to be a hero!

After a fierce ideological struggle, he had already figured out that all the elites of Longhan City were pressed in Megara City, as well as tens of thousands of loyal people in Megala City, no matter what, he couldn't give up, because Longhan City had no city defense at all, and there were no elite soldiers capable of fighting!

Even if he managed to escape from the city of Meghal, could he still defeat the crusaders who had just won a great victory, relying on a group of defeated generals and a group of militias?

Don't look at the tens of thousands of dead and wounded of the crusaders, but the vast majority of them were inconsequential temporary conscripts, and the thousands of reserves and cavalry behind them never stepped into the battlefield from beginning to end, let alone the dozens of official knights in plate armor!

Formal knights are just a title, it doesn't mean that they will definitely fight on horseback, and many human warriors with the strength of formal knights are actually good at fighting on foot rather than on horseback.

The reason why it is called knight is only because the status of cavalry is much higher than that of infantry, and it is used by humans to honor those human warriors with high military value.

When Lei Zihao came to the lancer station, Li Qingmei, who was wearing a Freya-style 'armor' with hollow buttocks and legs and belly, came to Lei Zihao with a short sword and a small shield.

Lei Zihao looked at the bright Li Qingmei with a bewildered expression: "Didn't I let you go back to Longhan City in advance?" Why aren't you leaving? Also, who made you dress like this!! ”

Li Qingmei replied with a stubborn face: "If you don't leave, why should I leave?" I will fight for the survival of the Seris nation! ”

"Just you?" Lei Zihao looked Li Qingmei, who was not tempting, up and down: "Are you sure you are dressed like this to go to war and not to 'comfort the army'?" ”

Li Qingmei's face turned red, and she retorted angrily: "Freya wears this 'battle armor' every time she goes to the battlefield, I searched for a long time and didn't find a suit for women, so I had to ask Freya for a set, Lei Zihao, don't look down on women, why can't I go to the battlefield if Freya can go to the battlefield!" ”

Lei Zihao looked at Li Qingmei, whose eyes were full of tears, and couldn't say the words of reprimand that came to his mouth, and sighed helplessly: "Okay, I don't force you to leave Megara City, but do you really want to die with me?" ”

"Lei Zihao, don't be sentimental, I want to live and die with the people of Seris, not with you! Of course, I will always follow you, the commander, and protect you well. ”

Lei Zihao patted his forehead: "Mei'er, even if you are like this, you don't have to dress like this......"

After speaking, Lei Zihao glared fiercely at the lancers who were constantly peeking, and surrounded Li Qingmei with his red cloak, covering her exposed snow-white skin: "You are my woman, I won't let you be hurt before I die." ”

Li Qingmei looked at Lei Zihao's firm eyes, the corners of her mouth trembled, she didn't say anything more, just tightened the cloak on her body, as for the reason why she disobeyed Lei Zihao's order and had to stay here, only she knew......
