Chapter 387: The Gambler Who Plays Chess
In the melee, fighting to the death, the elephant soldiers of the "Wild Followers" emitted a bright and helpless brilliance here.
After nearly two months, the "Giant Elephant Warriors" produced by the "Followers of the Wild" have exceeded two squads, which may not be inconspicuous on a large battlefield, but in this narrow terrain, it is simply an invincible existence.
Such a class of rank is only C, but it has an attack and defense that is not inferior to that of Class A or even S-class. With immense strength and thick skin, and a layer of plate armor, the elephant body is capable of crushing opponents simply by ramming. What's more, in order to reduce the consumption of elite troops, the British troops who were driven into Paris for street fighting were generally not of high rank, which gave the elephants enough room to play.
Combined with the "Wooden Spear Warriors" unique to the "Followers of the Savages", the rank of these war elephants was upgraded to B-rank, and their combat effectiveness soared again. Each war elephant formed a separate fighting force around a dozen or so wooden spear warriors, wreaking havoc in the stone-filled city.
As for the helplessness, just like Zhao Gao, Edward III ruthlessly pushed these more than twenty combat power groups to the periphery. It is true that every war elephant combat power group has reaped the greatest results, but there are many ants gnawing dead elephants, not to mention one powerful warrior after another? The war elephants only looked invincible, and when the surrounding wooden spear warriors died one after another, the war elephants surrounded by layers could only wail in pain under the ordinary attacks one after another, and finally fell to the ground helplessly, turning into a puddle of minced meat and being ruthlessly vented.
Seeing the continuous decrease in the number of elephant soldiers under his command, the faces of the "Wild Followers" continued to turn pale. The power of the Dominator was not yet something he could resist, but for the sake of the dignity of the nobles on the ground, he gave up using his last hole card and waited patiently for others to burst out of his fighting power.
Although the "Thinker" is only a title pioneer, the combat power that bursts out at this time is not inferior to that of ordinary field nobles. The ability of the troops produced in his barracks is average, but it has an extraordinary influence of plot forces, although it is not many in number, but it has successfully taken over hundreds of ordinary C-level troops from the plot forces, becoming another powerful fighting force.
Through this special class of troops, called "instructors", the "thinkers" successfully obtained the command authority of the vast majority of these hundreds of people. And with the cooperation of exquisite tactics, the combat power of these hundreds of people is far more powerful than the plot forces of their own battles, and in a short time, they actually completed a reverse attack and killed a British leader who attacked the city of Paris - Baron Nance, who led a thousand ordinary Scottish infantry!
This is the only real leading nobleman who has died on the battlefield so far. With the death of Baron Nans, most of the Scottish infantry lost the will to fight, and their combat effectiveness decreased significantly, and a small number of them even began to flee reflexively, being mercilessly shot at the city gates by the law enforcement team outside the city.
And the "thinker" has another advantage, as long as his "instructors" do not die on this battlefield, he can get a replenishment of troops at any time, and he does not have to die like an ordinary pioneer and have a heartache for a long time. This allows a lot of shameless tactics to be implemented, just like the "Baron Nance", which is the result of piling up the lives of hundreds of soldiers, if it is his own soldiers, he is probably absolutely reluctant to squander it like this.
At this time, you can reflect the hardship of the warrior-type pioneer. Unlike the previous two kinds of people, they can't choose to give orders in the main tent of Edward III, as the bottom of the pioneers, they also need to rely on their own strong force to fight, so it seems that these people are heroic and galloping on the battlefield, but the pain in their hearts is not for outsiders.
Of course, there are many of them who can defy the sky with personal force, and even the personal combat power of the warrior pioneer has reversed the tide of the battle from time to time, which can only say that the existence of the top of each profession is actually not weak. On a plane battlefield of this intensity, a bull like Li Yuanba, who has a single attribute of more than ninety and is full of S-level skills, seems to be not as difficult as imagined to play the tactic of capturing the thief and capturing the king first.
At the moment, this is not so easy to happen. If there is such a bull, it is impossible for Edward III or Fiona to use it, and even if it is really in the first team, it is difficult to say who will be in charge. The warrior pioneer who can be forcibly recruited by the two of them has a four-dimensional attribute of about two hundred and twenty thirty, and it is already remarkable that a single attribute can reach seventy. After all, the more difficult it is to improve in the future, and from this point of view, in addition to some rules for exploring space, warrior-type pioneers are not much better than some senior duty fighters in essence.
It's a matter of personal choice. Some people choose to continue to experience in the space, on the one hand, to enhance their strength, on the other hand, they are also accustomed to one side; Some people hope to get out of space as soon as possible, and those who are promoted to the trailblazers can obtain the status of "citizens", which can be regarded as a period of data, and at least the basic human rights are guaranteed.
After all, it is a rare occurrence to be forcibly drafted like this, and most of the time as a pioneer of the free people has the right to participate in the war on their own. And for the sake of relative fairness, if you can die here without fighting, then you will receive a fairly generous reward from the draftees; If they die in battle, the Draftee will pay ten times the price to pay the beneficiary they have predetermined. Therefore, unless they encounter a special perversion, under normal circumstances, the Recruiter will not actively send them to death.
So like Fiona, she is also desperate after having no choice. In order to injure "Joan of Arc", the pioneers under her command suffered extremely heavy casualties, and if she couldn't get a great profit in this story world, the points spent on the battle pension alone would be enough to make her bankrupt to the point of selling her territory.
As for the warrior-type pioneers under the command of Edward III, the total number of them was more than twenty, and the number of dead in battle was only two or three people, and the proportion of casualties was still greatly reduced compared to fifty or sixty percent of the space.
Although the chess pieces cannot control their own destiny, the gamblers who play chess also do not dare to squander them at will, unless they can obtain greater benefits - because the chess pieces are not their own after all, but the resources of the forces behind them, and they are also expensive to use!
Especially a chess piece with a noble status like Zhao Gao was even more unwilling to be used easily by Edward III. Although the role he has embodied on this battlefield is already too great, it is conceivable that after returning to space, Edward will have to pay a huge amount of money!
And now the most dazzling on the battlefield has actually become Zhao Gao, who only has more than a thousand "strong men" crossbowmen left, which makes the price that Edward needs to pay in his heart rise by three percent again!
