Chapter 81: Adjusting the Formation
The best and most unique thing about the Demon King Army is to form a ritual circle with ordinary people, and then use multiple elves to chant together to launch large-scale ritual magic, and this time they naturally did not forget their killer feature. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 Info The battle almost just began, and a large ritual magic trick was rolled out.
As the chanting was completed, countless fireballs suddenly appeared in the sky and fell into the coalition position. Each of these fireballs was the size of a washbasin, and the temperature was so high that even the air fluctuated. If it really falls, the consequences are unimaginable.
However, the coalition army and the demon king army have been fighting for three years, and they have their own experience in dealing with ritual magic. In the face of the flames in the sky, the elven envoys of the coalition army struck out in unison, and a variety of elven magic tricks were blasted into the sky, colliding head-on with those fireballs, canceling out this large-scale ritual magic.
These magic tricks hardly interfere with each other, relying on the tacit understanding accumulated over the years.
At the same time, the saint and the two thousand Salvation Army behind her began to advance.
This is also the standard routine of the battle between the two sides, after dealing with the first wave of elven magic, the saint will attack first, and use the window period after the ritual magic is issued to kill into the demon king army formation, disrupt the opponent's formation, and avoid the demon king army from sending out ritual magic again.
On the side of the coalition army, only the holy woman holding the holy sword can tear through the defense line of the demon king army with her strong personal force in a short period of time, and she can't get into it at all if you change others.
In the face of the impact of the Salvation Army, the Demon King Army took the initiative to change its formation, from a ritual magic circle to a serious battle formation. Since the start of the war, they have never been able to block the impact of the Holy Maiden, and the troops in the state of the magic circle will not be able to show their strength in the face-to-face battle, but will be easily defeated by the enemy, so only by readjusting the troops to the normal battle formation state can they win the battle.
The saintess soon tore a crack in the left flank of the Demon King Army, and the Salvation Army swarmed in, and the other armies behind also swarmed up, killing deep into the Demon King Army's formation.
"Change formation!" Barnaby saw clearly in the position of the Chinese army, and ordered loudly, "The right flank advances, the left flank retreats, and the Chinese army leans to the left!" ”
With his order, the Demon King Army in front of and on both sides of the Holy Maiden began to take the initiative to retreat, while the Demon King Army on the right flank struggled to push forward, and the battle line gradually changed from a straight line at the beginning to an oblique line. At the same time, his own Chinese army began to support on the left, delaying the pace of the Salvation Army.
This is a tactic honed by the Demon King Army in the war. The quality of the saint herself as an elf envoy is top-notch, and the sword elf Esther in her hand is an existence at the level of the five elf kings, as long as it is not against Solomon, it can be called invincible. There was no one on the side of the Demon King Army who could effectively fight against the Holy Maiden, so every time the Holy Maiden launched an assault, their formation would be broken through.
In the era of cold weapons, the army's support for the formation type is very large, and the combat effectiveness that can be exerted by the formation and the formation without the formation is far away. If one side has a formation and the other does not, then the outcome tends to turn into a massacre.
So in the face of the saintess who can break through the formation every time, the solution that the Demon King Army came up with is to adjust their formation at any time. Didn't the saint break through? Then where we were broken through, we began to retreat and reorganize the formation, so that it would be the same as if we had not been broken through.
Of course, this is very difficult to do, and it requires not only a lot of training, but also a lot of cannon fodder sacrifices. However, the Demon King Army has no shortage of training, and there is no shortage of cannon fodder.
It's just that in this way, the Chinese army went to reinforce the left flank, and the middle position of the demon king army began to gradually become weak.
Naturally, the coalition forces will not let go of such an opportunity.
"The Chinese army is advancing!" Duke Elsstein decisively ordered.
The Chinese army composed of the Aldesian Kingdom Army advanced forward, and soon reached the front line of the battle, and the Chinese army of the Demon King Army was in close hands.
The elite Aldesian Kingdom army put considerable pressure on the central army of the Demon King's army, forcing Barnaby to halt reinforcements on the left flank.
"As soon as they came up, they put in all the elite troops, not even the reserves, and it seems that the Lauren Frost Army has indeed arrived." Barnaby narrowed his eyes and coldly ordered, "The right flank continues to move forward and adjust the formation." ”
With his order, the right flank of the Demon King Army continued to move forward bravely, while the left flank and the middle lane slowly retreated, and the battle line evolved from a horizontal line at the beginning to an oblique line, and the angle between the diagonal line and the first horizontal line was still expanding more and more - that is, the entire army of the Demon King Army originally located on the east side was moving towards the north side of the plain, and the coalition army turned to the south side accordingly.
"The actions of the Demon King's army are very strange......" Duke Elsstein looked at the situation of the battlefield with some strange eyes. The Demon King Army had to pay a considerable price for adjusting its formation in this way, and there were quite heavy casualties in the process. But what is it necessary to deploy troops to the north side of the battlefield at such a cost?
It can't be Barnaby himself who is undercover and ready to change his way to give the coalition a head, right?
"Give an order to the Salvation Army, tell them to stop a little and not go too deep, the other side may have a conspiracy." Out of an abundance of caution, he commanded.
The herald immediately ran forward.
But at this time, at the back of the original location of the Demon King Army, on the seemingly empty plain, an army suddenly appeared!
In the center of the army, the high flag is fluttering in the wind, and the angel with the sword is hunting and flying, which is the banner of the Demon King's Guard!
"Stealth magic? Demon Guard? Duke Elstenin exclaimed, wondering how this army had come to be here - he hadn't received any information about the arrival of reinforcements from the Demon King's army! And even if the sun comes, it won't come!
But this army is already here, and in a position that would be fatal to the coalition: the flank of the Salvation Army!
At this time, the Salvation Army was chasing after the Demon King Army in front of them, exposing the flanks defenselessly in the attack range of the Guards!
"Hurry up, let the Lauren Frost Army come over quickly! Order the Salvation Army to turn eastward, the Aldesian Army to move eastward, and the army of Kelzenos and Shapelle to come over! "Duke Elsteng issued an order to adjust the formation of the coalition forces.
But it's too late. The Demon King's Guard, led by Josephine, fiercely scuttled into the flank of the Salvation Army, and then smashed into the coalition formation. The coalition forces were unable to respond, and immediately suffered heavy losses, and the formation could not stop frustrating backwards, and it could not be suppressed at all.
Faced with this situation, Duke Eersstein sighed and ordered the Aldesian army to retreat from the battle and retreat.
I didn't expect the reinforcements of the Demon King Army to come so quickly......
Duke Ehrstein regretted that he had not predicted this.
Fortunately, it's not over yet. The coalition forces have suffered a lot of damage, but they are not yet to the point of complete defeat, as long as they will fight with Lauren Frost's army, then there will still be a fight!
