Chapter 184: Confrontation
"Come and have a look!" Cigarette sticks and the others quickened their pace.
The 30,000 soldiers who accompanied him froze to death hundreds along the way. Because of the long distance and the complicated roads, the baggage brigade did not carry wood, and some soldiers slept all night and froze the next day.
……
The horses neighed, and they hunted.
When the giants' formation was completely disrupted, the cavalry team with chains entered the field.
They dragged the thick black chains in a straight line, and formed a team of six or eight to intercept the giants on the edge.
The strength of a group of people is by no means something that a single giant can stop, and coupled with the speed of the war horse, those giants who were stumped by the iron chain fell to the ground one after another.
The sword flashed in the hands of the cavalrymen who mended the swords behind, and the giant's broken neck was sprayed with dirty blood, and the corpse quickly fell to the ground.
Some giants tried to grasp the chains of encirclement, and their hands clenched, crying out in pain. In the middle of the chains were protruding spikes, and the giants were covered in blood when they grabbed them.
As the giants on the edge are gradually eaten away, Luk also discovers the seriousness of the matter.
"This group of human soldiers is also here, and it is impossible for that kind of sun to attack with its own people."
"Herald! Stop moving forward! Form a battle formation! Luk gave orders to the various leaders.
Having lost thousands of giants, they formed a phalanx, and in the face of such an organized battle formation, the cavalry stopped attacking.
Mighty cavalry legions swirled around the giants' phalanx, the frozen snow of the wasteland trampled by iron hooves, and the wind blew like snowflakes.
The giants formed a phalanx and moved forward cautiously, although the formation was a little rough, but fortunately it was tight.
Yue Jun and the others had already led the infantry corps to rush over, and Prince Chen followed beside him.
The two imperial high-ranking officials fought in person, and with the effect of the inscription ring, the morale of the soldiers was unprecedentedly high.
About half an hour later, the infantry corps rushed to the vicinity of the giant's phalanx. The cavalry retreated, lined up in front of the phalanx of infantry.
During this time in between, the giants tried to break through, but the high mobility of the cavalry made the giants hate itchy. No matter which direction they go from, there must be people harassing them on the flanks.
Liuke didn't dare to let the giants be too scattered, it was already quite difficult for these Hanhan's subordinates to form a battle formation, and it was a bit embarrassing to let them fight while walking and still maintaining the formation.
Liuke and a group of giant leaders stood in front of the giant army and looked directly at Prince Chen and the others, and now it seemed that it was impossible to run.
The two forces were so close that Luk believed that the "sun" could not come again.
"If that kind of sun attack is obtained by my giant clan, wouldn't it even be that ......?"
"Herald! Capture the first two leaders alive and reward 1000 alive! The women of the clan are of any choice! Realizing the importance of the "Sun" attack, Luk captures the two high-level humans alive and is sure to get what he wants.
The giants have no concept of money, and the most they usually do is barter, and when they hear the commander's bounty, the fear of thousands of giants is overwhelmed by greed.
"My grandmother! 1,000 living people, this will have to be eaten until next year! ”
"I'm the two leading ones!" The giants are gearing up, this group of fools is really easy to brainwash, basically what the giant commander says they do.
Emperor Chen followed the expedition this time, if the extermination of the giant is successful, and he returns to the imperial capital, it is basically the moment to be crowned on the throne.
Yue Jun also realized the importance of Prince Chen, but this Nine Emperor Prince was not a weak scholar, he was a man with a first-order physical attribute.
The inscription weapon is troublesome to transfer, the huge five-meter-high frame weighs several tons, of course it is impossible for Prince Chen to let people carry it entirely, if the inscription ring is accidentally fallen and damaged, he can really consider swallowing the sword and committing suicide.
As for dismantling and reloading, it is estimated that the battle has long been over after dismantling and reloading. The inscription ring was watched by Prince Chen's cronies, and once the battle was against the wind, it was necessary to transfer as soon as possible.
Liuke looked at the majestic cavalry regiment in front of him and smiled sadly, if it was a plain war, it would not be a problem for the remaining eight or nine thousand giants to destroy these humans.
The mobilization in front of the station is indispensable, and Prince Chen's excellent oratorical skills are nothing more than words for himself, his family and the empire, but the soldiers are moved to a mess.
Prince Chen and the commander of the Yue army shuttled in front of the cavalry formation, holding long swords and clashing with the weapons of the cavalry in the front row, implying that they would fight hand in hand, live and die together.
After the two crossed back and forth, they stepped forward, and the giant leaders on the opposite side had just completed their mobilization, and they also promised some benefits.
The two armies faced each other two or three hundred meters apart, the horses with their heads down and snorting, and the horses' hooves swaying restlessly on the ground.
"Archers come forward!"
With Yue's order, a gap was created between the cavalry, and about two or three thousand archers stretched out their bows and arrows, and the arrows were wrapped in oilcloths, and the soldiers behind lit the arrows one after another.
"Put!"
In the era of cold weapons, bows and arrows were indispensable, and maybe some giants were unlucky and killed by an arrow.
A bright rain of arrows rained down, and in a wave of shots, dozens of giants did not protect the vital point and were shot in the throat of the face door.
Giants are covered in iron armor except for their joints, so they don't need shields.
"For the Empire and the Dawn! Offensive! ”
"Wings!"
The cavalry charging at the entire front end, as a whole in the shape of a crescent bird wing, was composed of the commander Yue Jun, Prince Chen, and a group of generals and deputy generals, and the middle force went straight to the front phalanx of the giants.
You can't use a triangular arrow formation to deal with giants, and if you rush in, it's for nothing.
It is best to engage this giant phalanx with an encirclement attack, with the heavy cavalry surrounding the giants and disrupting the giants' formation, the archers shooting inside, and the infantry legions following the cavalry and cleaning up the giants. Writing Zhai
The majestic momentum of the cavalry made the giants feel cold, and the trembling on the ground became more and more obvious, and some giants swallowed their saliva, but they didn't expect that the humans who were easy to bully on weekdays had such a momentum.
A distance of two or three hundred meters is just a few breaths for the cavalry. A certain giant with a sharp nose smelled a strange smell, like ...... Barbecue.
The cavalrymen in front of them all held clay pots in their hands, which were stuffed with cloth and lit.
When the cavalry and the giant came into contact, the burning pots were thrown out.
Round jars fell from the sky, and with a "snap" a jar landed on the giant's armor, spilling grease all over him, and then ignited by the flames carried by the strips of cloth.
Some giants in front of them were immediately jumped up and down by the heat, and the original defensive formation was also disrupted by the fire oil can.
"Don't mess around! Meet the enemy! "One of the giants commanded his men, and suddenly a clay pot landed on him, and he jumped up with it.
The giants who were originally expecting a heavy attack were broken out of the formation in this way, and Yue Jun and Prince Chen led a group of generals to fight into the giant phalanx.
Yue Jun's longsword jammed Liuke's weapon, but luckily his weapon was long enough, Liuke's mace was like an oversized pine needle, and there were half-meter-long spikes below the grip.
In a round of firefighting, the mount of the Yue army died violently, and the impact of the mace was too strong, and the backbone of the war horse was directly broken.
The moment Yue Jun jumped off his horse, his figure disappeared into the chaotic battlefield.
"Bugs!"
Liuke squatted down, swept in a circle and directly smashed the two lieutenants into the air, leaving him alone a few meters around.
"Boring!"
Yue Jun's figure appeared, and the one-meter-and-five-meter-long sword slashed towards Liuke's calf, but unfortunately Liuke was aware of it, and the mace blocked the attack.
Yue Jun, like Liuke, is a second-order full body attribute. The sword is silvered throughout, and it's made of streamer metal.
The straight sword is shining with silver, with beauty and hidden danger at the same time. Yue Jun clenched his hands and flattened a large piece of spikes of the mace with a single sword.
There were a few giants next to him who wanted to attack, but as soon as Yue Jun's body retreated, the blade of his sword turned and cut the leg joints of several giants like cutting butter.
His tiger eyes glanced sharply around, and when Liuke saw that Yue Jun was gone, he aimed at someone else.
The soldiers and giants roared and wailed, the swords slashed, the hammers pounded dullly, and the horses were whipped away.
The snow and ice melted with the heat, the bubbling streams seeped into the surface, and perhaps the flowers and plants grew more luxuriantly the next year.
Capture the thief and capture the king first, Yue Jun's primary target is Liuke, his use of the void is obviously very deep, and Liuke can't detect anything without a certain range.
A nameless threat flashed through Liuke's mind, and he decisively swept back, and the huge mace forced Yue Jun's figure out.
"Click!"
Yue Jun's arm was bruised, and his rough palm gripped the hilt of the sword, slashing the spikes on one side along the mace.
The silver dragon returns to the nest, and the white Jiao comes out of the hole.
The blade of the sword was as fast as lightning, and before Liuk could react, a sword pierced his leg bone.
The giant commander sensed the sharp pain in his calf, and swung his heavy stick angrily, smashing Yue Jun deep into the ice and snow with a single stick.
The long sword unleashed its force along with Liuke's pressure, and Yue Jun kicked under his feet, heading straight for Liuke's feet.
What the giant is afraid of is the close range of masters, there are advantages and disadvantages in height, once the human is close to his feet, the height of ten meters is very passive.
Lyuk endured the calf injury and took a leap of strength. The sword swept almost against his boots.
Tons of weight fell to the ground, which can be called shaking the earth. Liuke's mace smashed downward, but the attack was clumsy, and Yue Jun easily dodged it.
A simple battle armor wrapped Yue Jun's figure, his whereabouts were ghostly, and Liuke didn't dare to be careless.
Sometimes the long sword is as fast as lightning, and the reflected light forms a silver plate, "Poof! The sharp blade pierced through the mace's spikes, leaving a bloody hole in Luk's leg bone.
The blade of the sword slashed horizontally, turning into a circle. He actually took a step back!
Yue Jun's sword path was fierce and fearless, and his long sword opened and closed widely. He was not afraid of the size and strength of the giants at all, and the blade of the long sword had already cut many gaps after continuous violent slashes.
"Boom!"
The blade of the sword was like three inches of iron, and the trembling buzz and strength made both of them numb at the same time. Yue Jun withdrew his sword body and rotated his body.
A silver moon shimmered in the light of the sun, and Liuke hurriedly raised his feet in fright. Yue Jun's figure followed, and the long sword slashed at the other leg, and Liuke had no time to avoid it, so he could only swing his stick at his feet, hoping that Yue Jun would not be dead or injured.
It's a pity that Jiang is still old and spicy, and Yue Jun's long sword did not relent, but became more and more superior.
The brilliant sparks spread out like raindrops, and the stick of Liuke struck in a hurry, without accumulating much strength.
The long sword slashed through the mutilated giant pine needles with a hum, and Yue Jun's body seemed to be pulled upside down, lightly avoiding the other leg that was closed.
Liuke hurriedly turned around and swung his weapon behind him, his hideous spikes brushing against Yue Jun's face, and the wind whipped up a strand of pale hair.
"It's over!" Liuke thought naturally.
Yue Jun had already turned around to accumulate strength, and the sword body was blessed by both hands, cutting sharp groans in the air.
The old man's face was a little indifferent, his narrow eyelids showed a cold light, and in Liuke's self-sighing anticipation, Yue Jun's long sword instantly cut off one of his legs and wrists.
