Chapter 123: Finding a Problem

Looking at the rows of humans below, shirtless and holding machetes, they rushed to the target in front of them in turn, slashed hard, and then retreated. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

This kind of training method makes even a layman like Ding Lei feel choked enough when he sees it.

Was this what military training was like in ancient times? It's different from those in my own house.

Turning his head to look at the 'Assassin' Adonis next to him, he asked, "Give me a rating?" ”

The military expert shook his head.

Ding Lei asked, "Can you tell me more about it?" ”

Adonis pointed to the row of shirtless guys in front of him and said, "The front row, those should be slaves, and when fighting, they use it to resist the opponent's long-range attacks, so as to give their own assault troops a chance and time to get close, but ......"

"Cannon fodder?" Ding Lei muttered.

Adonis looked at him strangely and asked, "Cannon fodder?" Magic Cannon......"

"No, it's just a metaphor, you go ahead."

"Oh, it's useless to have slaves as cannon fodder, especially against us, normal training should be like those." Adonis pointed further away, where rows of soldiers in armor, with huge shields in their left hands and spears in their right, the same in the second, and machetes in the third.

"Group operations pay attention to formation, and in the absence of air support, the formation of formations is the best."

Ding Lei was a little stunned when he heard it next to him, why did the ancient war have to be pulled into the modern three-dimensional strike of the open ground? If it is close to the coast, will there be artillery support from the Ark battleships? Trinity Strike Method? What has become of the combat methods of Demon King City under the leadership of this skeleton......

Adonis continued: "Human warfare is single, too rigid to make corresponding adaptations according to the form of the battlefield, in contrast, the Immortal City has valkyrie in the sky, melee has Minotaur, shock Dolga, group warfare has expeditionary forces, if necessary, you can also pull various types of war giants over to crush the enemy, and there are also a large number of soldiers in various forms according to different battlefield forms to make corresponding configurations. ”

Halfway through his speech, the Grim Reaper turned his head to look at Ding Lei and said, "Seriously, it has always been the greatest honor of my life to be able to let me command the team of Immortal City!" I think that's the honor that all commanders can only dream of. ”

"Huh." Ding Lei smiled and patted him on the shoulder.

The legion that all commanders dream of? Not necessarily.

In addition to their own strength, the most important thing about the legion of the Demon King City is the legion commander.

Adonis was not as rigid as other military commanders, but rather absorbed everything new and foreign to his own use.

The tactical aspect will be adjusted accordingly according to the specific form changes, of course, he does this, largely from the pressure of the old fritters below, such as concealing or not reporting something.

Delaying military aircraft is a top priority! How many commanders have been played to death by their own people because of this. If someone else were to take command, it would not be enough to die as many times.

And this skeleton may often encounter this kind of problem, so the command is also extremely flexible, once found that there is a suspicious point, if they can't be contacted, they will be killed, and then immediately send another trustworthy team to investigate, and then quickly dispatch troops to support, while stabilizing the use of other strategic points at hand.

He is like a conductor in a live concert hall, the melodies of the battlefield are flowing freely between his fingers, but they are completely out of his control.

This is the perfect master of war.

If his leaders and subordinates could be more reliable, it would be even more perfect.

"When you go back, you have to unscrew the 'clockwork' for those guys, delaying the military plane will kill you!" Ding Lei thought secretly in his heart.

At this moment, suddenly the war drums thundered below, and rows of slaves in rudimentary armor lined up.

Three rows in one, a total of three teams, like a regular army, holding shields and spears, but it looks much simpler, at least the black armor is not as dense as the silver-white full-body armor of the regular army.

On the other side, too, the slaves had swords and tomahawks in their hands.

In their respective rear, there were rows of regular troops with bows facing them, which was regarded as a war overseer.

At the sound of an order, the two groups of slaves began to hedge, and suddenly shouts of killing and screams came and went.

What's going on?

Ding Lei turned his head to look at Adonis, who looked at the battlefield and replied without looking back: "What you saw before was soldier training, but now it should be a commander's training subject, and the slaves seem to be quite sufficient, so they are directly used." ”

"Why?"

"Your Highness." Adonis turned his head and said, "The number of slaves makes up 70% of their population, and if they hadn't had weapons in their hands, those slaves would have rebelled a long time ago, so it is a little bit to be able to consume a little, at least I think their officers think." ”

"Oh......" Ding Lei looked at the crowded training ground below, and said silently: "It looks a little worthless, it's too wasteful, at least I will give them the status of free people to send them to open up the wilderness, it is better to die on the way to open up the wasteland than to die in this kind of ghost place." ”

After a few subject trainings, Adonis shook his head.

Suddenly, on the largest drill ground below, the crowd began to retreat and two special groups came up in turn.

The two groups of people and horses facing each other stood very open, and it was 300 meters long.

On the left, there are also three teams, infantry in the middle, cavalry on both sides, but there are one or two guys with staff in the middle of the cavalry and infantry, mage?

On the right, the three rows in the middle were armed with shields and spears, and at a distance behind them, three rows of archers stood, half as small as on the opposite side.

All of them are heavily protected, and their weapons are not pointed, as if they are engaged in actual combat training.

At the sound of an order, the infantry on the left charged with the cavalry group, the shooters on the right fired parabola accordingly, and the large shield in front defended.

When it was close to 100 meters on the left, a transparent shield suddenly rose, directly covering the charging corps, and then the shield moved with the corps, and at the same time several fireballs appeared and bombarded the infantry shield array on the right, which blew them to pieces, and finally when the left was approaching, a password came out, everyone stopped advancing, and the drill ended.

"How?" Ding Lei turned his head and asked.

"Hmm...... Your Highness. Adonis turned to look at him and said, "I remember you said before that when you first met the Wyverns, those high-level natives couldn't shoot through the magic shield on the other side?" ”

"Yes, but the shield doesn't seem to be able to block melee physical damage."

Adonis said: "In other words, the magic shield has the function of counteracting magic arrows, but you also saw just now that when the cavalry on the left charged, there were still people who were shot off their horses by bows and arrows, that is, the magic shield has weak resistance to the physical damage of bows and arrows, but pure magic arrows are different." ”

Ding Lei heard what he meant, and asked tentatively: "You mean, the repeating crossbow made by Strass for humans may not work?" Because their arrows are made of magic? Will it be canceled out by the shield? ”

The Grim Reaper nodded, and didn't say anything more.
