Chapter 876: Artillery Fire, Armor and Long Sword

But the bloody scene, Bucky has seen it after all.

He didn't feel any fear now, his arms were down, and he looked around, all of them in this more relaxed posture, because they had become accustomed to conserving their strength as much as possible before the battle. Otherwise, the enemy's arm will be sore before he comes, and it will be a fatal thing to really fight.

The soldiers of the nobility were in formation and began to march this way...

Bucky felt that the lords in front of him who were about to rush over didn't seem to be in agreement. Some people tried to outflank them from the side as they walked, but because of this, they were squeezed together with the other people's troops. And the people who were directly facing them in the middle gradually became scattered as they marched, and if it weren't for the aristocratic banners that were erected and tried to maintain the formation, the infantry who stumbled on their feet would probably soon be in chaos.

In the process, Bucky still didn't move, and he didn't look back, but he felt that the original nervous mood in his heart had somehow calmed down a lot. After the enemy in front entered the 500-meter range, the company commanders' orders were heard from the rear of the team, and then these orders were passed down one by one, and the platoon commander in the center of the team shouted: "Draw your sword! Raise your shield!"

The sound of the sword unsheathed rang out, and at this moment, the originally cool blood seemed to be directly ignited, and when the round shield was raised forward, and the center of gravity of his body sank slightly, Bucky felt the spears of his comrades in the back row on his shoulders, and the heavy breathing of his comrades under the helmets.

He turned his face sideways, and the hedron inlaid on the charged spear was clearly visible, and there were incomprehensible magic patterns all over the side. And when he turned his gaze, the cavalry in front of him had already begun to charge!

At this moment, a series of dense explosions rang out from behind, and Bucky narrowed his eyes, countless phantoms streaked overhead, and then a large burst of fire instantly exploded in the cavalry ranks—

The familiar scene played out again, and Bucky saw the well-dressed knights screaming and flying into the sky, reduced to shredded flesh, while the infantry that had already begun to charge seemed to be frightened by the scene, and there was a brief pause.

But then Bucky stared at him, as he saw the orange-red parabolas behind the firelight, and when he saw that it was a fireball, he and the soldiers around him changed color...

"It's a magician—"

"Spell Defense Move! Raise your shield!"

The squad leader's roar interrupted their words, and at the sound of this command, Bucky and all the soldiers around instinctively raised their shields, squatted down completely, and shrunk themselves into a ball like defensive arrows...

"Boom, boom!"

There was a loud bang in front of him, and the fireballs were visibly off target, most of them landing in the open space in front of the position. But there were still a few that smashed in the ranks. Bucky stood in the first row, and a fireball landed two meters in front of him. The violent air flow and vibration made him kneeling on the ground on the spot as if he had been hit head-on by a giant hammer, and his body fell directly to the ground.

However, the shield produced by the Elson Arsenal was unusually strong, and when he was pulled up by his teammates, he felt that the shield was a little hot, and there were no unnecessary wounds on his body.

"If you can still fight, you can return to the team!

The squad leader's voice was a little hoarse, in fact, it was because his ears were temporarily deaf because of the loud sound. Bucky's ears were ringing, and although he couldn't hear clearly, he knew what he was doing by looking at the other person's gestures. Picking up the sword he had fallen to the ground, he quickly ran back to his original position and reformed the shield wall with his comrades. When I looked up again, the artillery company's artillery fire had already covered the magician who had just cast the spell on the other side...

The blue magic shield flashed continuously, but after the third wave of artillery fire covered it, the fire engulfed everything.

By this time, the enemy's cavalry had largely collapsed, and the remaining infantry was moving forward by inertia. The two rounds of bombardment obviously stopped their footsteps, and the part of the soldiers opposite Bucky stood still as if they were stupid, but the infantry on both sides continued to advance under the leadership of the surviving lords - at two hundred meters, there was a rain of arrows in front of them, and all the soldiers continued to raise their shields to defend, and the sound of "clanging" sounded, none of the powerful arrows could penetrate a solid shield, and the soldiers waited in silence for the rain of arrows to pass, when the "end of the defensive posture" By the time the order came, the enemy in front had already entered a range of fifty meters.

The fourth round of artillery fire from the rear began, and the fire from the shells fell on the position of the Chinese army in the rear of the enemy line, but because there were only ten guns, the power was not enough for "fire coverage", and the most powerful double-barreled artillery vehicles stopped in the rear due to a malfunction, so the morale of these enemies was not completely destroyed, and they still launched a charge.

Forty meters, thirty meters... The dozen or so cavalrymen scattered at the front had lost the courage to charge because they were wounded by the artillery, and they had to bypass directly in front of the infantry formation formed by Bucky and his comrades. And the next moment, the charge came from the rear—

"Up, up, up!"

The squad leader gave the order loudly, but this charge was not a rush forward, Bucky raised his shield sideways, the blade of his right short sword was placed forward from above the shield, and his eyes swept left and right, so that everyone in the first row tried to stay in one platoon, and pushed forward step by step.

The shield wall composed of hundreds of round shields has an extremely powerful visual impact. With each step, the sound of the armor grinding against each other would be like waves crashing on the shore.

One step, two steps...

By the time he reached the third step, his comrades on both sides had already begun to engage the enemy, and the sound of weapons clashing against shields was continuous, and the roar and wail were mixed together, making Bucky's muscles tense all over.

"Kill, kill, kill!"

The enemy in the field of vision no longer hesitated before, and obviously understood that at such a time he could only fight head-on - and the squad leader next to him no longer gave any orders, because every time the drill reached this distance, the infantry had only one thing to do: wave their weapons and kill all the living creatures in front of them!

A cacophony engulfed everything. Bucky took a deep breath and stared at the guy in front of him with the axe in his hand, and suddenly began to accelerate forward-

"Hey!"

The opponent instinctively raises the tomahawk, but the biggest disadvantage of this heavy weapon is that it is slow to build. Bucky had this in mind during his training, so he slammed his shield into the opponent's chest before the axe could be chopped off!

"Bang dang!"

Because of inertia, the axe still smashed into his back when it fell, but the metal armor of the whole body seemed to be light, but in fact the protection ability was extremely strong, and after taking such a beat, Bucky only crooked his body, but his movements were not affected much, and the other party was hit by him and lost his balance and was in a state of stiffness. Seeing this, Bucky directly swung his short sword and slashed the enemy's neck!

This was the first time he had hacked a real person with a weapon, and his movements were so deformed because of his nervousness, but the enemy was only wearing cloth clothes, and this sword went down and slashed directly into the neck bone, and blood splattered everywhere.

Bucky tried to draw his sword, but found that the blade was stuck in the bones and muscles and could not be pulled out, so he had to hold the opponent's body with one foot and pull the sword out with the other hand. As a result, he heard a "bang" from his helmet, and his body involuntarily shook forward, and when he turned his head, he realized that someone was attacking him behind him.

The other man was holding a short sword in his hand, but the blade had been bent from the middle part to the side, apparently caused by hitting Bucky's helmet...

Bucky was secretly frightened in his heart, and kicked the other party to the ground when he raised his foot, the enemy in front of him was thin and weak, and he kicked it lightly, and Bucky didn't go up to make up for a sword, and the comrade who followed next to him had already stepped on the opponent's face...

"Rush over!"

Bucky heard their roars and turned on. After these two rounds of fighting, his body was fully in shape. Faced with those who tried to attack him, he found that he could easily block their attacks by simply raising his shield against them. And even if you encounter a swordsmanship, the sturdy armor can slide the opponent's blade directly. He gritted his teeth and slashed seven people, then fell behind his teammates due to physical exertion, and at this point he found that the edge of his short sword had been rolled over.

After stabbing a struggling foe on the ground to death, Bucky reached for it and hung it back on his waist, then pulled out another spare dagger and flicked it on.

Ivta's infantry were all equipped with two swords, one long and one short, and Bucky trusted his short sword, which was slightly longer than a dagger, than the messy and inferior things of the enemy.

He gasped and trotted forward, only to find that there were no enemies left in front of him. What you can see in the field of vision are your own people wearing uniform armor. He tried to look ahead, and the battlefield filled with the smell of burnt flesh was only a variety of embarrassed figures that fell to the ground and groaned, and beyond the smoke, the eyes behind him were full of collapsed and fleeing enemies...

"Three companies go to support the left flank!

The morale of the enemy in the central area collapsed the fastest because it was directly shelled, but the enemy on both sides had not yet been completely defeated, and was still in a stalemate at this time. Bucky's ears still couldn't hear clearly, but he could see the company commander in different armor making tactical gestures. And when he sees an order, all he can think of is to execute it quickly - this is the instinctive reaction in the hearts of all soldiers.

Bucky turned his head and charged to the left with his comrades, and the importance of physical training at this moment was highlighted, and after a high-intensity battle, the soldiers in armor were still able to quickly move around the battlefield and immediately enter a new battle. Bucky tried his best to recall what the instructor had taught him during the training, took a big gulp of adjusted breathing, and then spontaneously formed a shield formation with the five comrades beside him, and tacitly inserted himself into the formation of the enemy on the left flank from the side!
