Chapter 461: Cavalry Charge
"Woo~hmm~~" An eager horn sound came from the front. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
"It's finally here! Command the whole army! Get ready to meet the enemy! Zhao Ying put away her other expressions, regained her serious demeanor, and commanded loudly to the players around her.
Lin Ran could see through the dense military formations and defense lines on the front line that in the distance, a cavalry of the Wang Mastiff Army, which was like a steel arrow, had broken through all the defense lines of the inner encirclement and rushed straight towards the outer encirclement. Behind them were more than 10,000 elite Wang Mastiff Army infantry.
On the battlefield, the vague figure of the other side can be seen, indicating that the distance between the two armies is already within reach, especially for the cavalry.
Half a minute later, the heavy cavalry of the Wang Mastiff Army had already rushed to the front of the outer defensive circle.
In the face of this heavy cavalry army covered in high-grade heavy armor and with great momentum, all the alliance soldiers couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva, not to mention anything else, just the momentum of the other party can make the enemy's momentum weaken by three points before the battle, and they can't exert all their combat effectiveness.
"Cast!" The heavy cavalry of the King Mastiff Army approached their own defensive circle, and another burst of spears rained down on the players' heads.
However, after the battle of the cavalry corps, Zhao Ying had already understood their routines very well, and when the heavy cavalry of the Wang Mastiff Army made a spear-throwing action, Zhao Ying also ordered the whole army to raise their shields at the same time!
In an instant, all players in the entire outer defense circle took out the iron shields in their backpacks and held them high above their heads, and those who got closer could also stack several shields on top of each other, so that they could gain greater defense.
The spear arrives as scheduled and lands on the shield that the players have on their heads. "Bang bang bang!" A loud knock sound accompanied by a powerful impact fell on the players' shields, which was so powerful that it was almost impossible for players with weak strength to hold on.
And because the attack power and penetration of the throwing gun are too strong, every time a throwing gun falls on the shield, the shield immediately appears cracks, and the durability value is greatly reduced.
A shield can only resist a maximum of two throwing guns, and it will be scrapped.
In the end, because of the appropriate defensive measures, this wave of spear throwing attacks by the heavy cavalry of the Wang Mastiff Army only killed and injured hundreds of players in the outer defense circle, which was just a drop in the bucket for hundreds of thousands of players in the entire outer encirclement.
The throwing of the gun did not achieve the expected killing effect, which made the heavy cavalry general of the Wang Mastiff Army a little puzzled, these guys are really smart. Well, since throwing guns doesn't play a big role, let's skip this step and just do it with real guns!
The heavy cavalry of the Wang Mastiff Army no longer stopped, and rushed straight towards the alliance players in front of them with countless large shields, spearmen and halberds.
"Ahh
"What's that?"
"My war horse can't move!"
"It's thistle...... There are even iron nails, these immoral things! What about us? “
The heavy cavalry of the Mastiff Army was about to rush in front of the enemy, but they were stopped by some gadgets that they did not notice, and the countless iron thistles and iron nails in front of the position made their horses fall and be injured, and the horses that were not injured in the back saw the miserable situation of their companions in front of them, and they all stopped, and refused to take a step forward no matter how whipped their masters.
"Damn." The heavy cavalry general of the Wang Mastiff Army blushed and said angrily: "Don't stop for me, isn't it just a little thistle?" Walk through the middle road and crush all the thistles on the road! “
The three thousand heavy cavalry formed a line formation, and trampled all the thistles and iron nails on the passage in the middle of a passage about three meters wide - the horses of the heavy cavalry of the Wang Mastiff Army were naturally equipped with horseshoes, and they were not defended just now, so they were hit, but now they have defense, and at a little cost, they still stepped out of a passage alive.
"This NPC is very intelligent." Lin Ran said: "However, there are more than 3,000 of them, and if they form a formation, it will take a lot of time to get to us through this narrow passage." “
Zhao Ying nodded and said, "That's right, they came in through this passage, which just gave us a good opportunity to attack them intensively!" Crossbowmen, ballistae, on! “
Tens of thousands of crossbowmen and hundreds of ballistae, protected by shield-wielding spear-wielding infantry, pointed their arrows in the direction of them.
"Free fire! Put! “
That narrow path was instantly covered with countless arrows, but these heavy cavalry were too perverted in defense, and ordinary arrows and crossbow attacks could not penetrate them, and generally only dealt a mandatory -1 damage.
The only thing that could really inflict damage on this group of cavalry was the ballista, and the crossbow arrows the size and thickness of the mouth of the cup fell on them, and no matter how strong the armor was, they could not resist it.
In this wave of attacks, this pile of heavy cavalry suffered hundreds of casualties.
The heavy cavalry general of the Wang Mastiff Army realized the power of the ballista of the Union army on the opposite side, and immediately ordered: "Aim at the opponent's ballista and shoot the enemy ballista!" “
Each of the king's mastiff heavy cavalry took out their bows and arrows and shot at the crossbow carts on the opposite side. These Xiliang cavalry turned out to be sharpshooters with good archery skills, and they could accurately deliver arrows to the enemy's throat while riding their horses, and for a while, as long as any player dared to approach the ballista, they would immediately be baptized by their arrows.
Lin Ran was a little surprised: "The combat effectiveness of this heavy cavalry unit is inevitably too strong, and it is proficient in melee and long-range!" Just 3,000 people can make my hundreds of thousands of troops quite helpless. “
Zhao Ying said: "Yes, this is the famous Xiliang Iron Cavalry, when Ma Chao led hundreds of thousands of Xiliang Iron Cavalry, it can be said that he was invincible all over the world, and even Cao Cao was defeated by the Xiliang Iron Cavalry one after another, almost killed. Even in the end, Cao Cao never really defeated the Xiliang Iron Cavalry with his own army, but defeated Ma Chao with a discordant strategy. “
"It's a pity." Lin Ran sighed and said, "Such a good army, but it is only our enemy, if we can capture it..."
After a lot of disgrace, the heavy cavalry of the Mastiff Army finally passed through the area in front of which there were things like thistles and nails. After being cleaned up in this way, these heavy cavalry soldiers were full of anger one by one, and without the general's order, they all rushed straight to the alliance players.
"Bang bang bang!"
The high-speed galloping heavy cavalry of the Wang Mastiff Army knocked the shield soldiers at the outermost part of the defense circle into the air without any suspense, and rushed into the spearmen and halberders behind the shield soldiers with the corpses and shields flying.
On the battlefield, the cavalry that could be effectively restrained were spearmen and halberders, whose long weapons could inflict mid-range damage on horsemen.
