Chapter Seventy-Two: In the Battle of Walter
Someone has said that in fact, in any war, any part of the enemy can be divided into three parts: left, center, and right, and among the three parts that are distinguished, there is always one of the weakest points, which is the key point you want to break through.
The main force of the enemy that Zhang Quan faced was roughly divided into three parts, the first part was two thousand Bill heavy infantry, which was left aside for the time being, Zhang Quan had already found a way to deal with them, and the other part was the remnants of the Leopard Man Headquarters of the Sharp Claw Division, although the number was very small, but it was probably the most ferocious enemy in this battle. Walter is the home of these leopard people, and behind them is the protection of the final fate of their thousands of people, and they have no way to retreat from the base mountain all the way here, so their will to resist will be the strongest, this is easy to imagine.
And the last part, the coalition of the Leopard Tribal Alliance, although there are 2,000 people, is the main force of the Leopard people in this battle. But they are from the three tribes, although they have the same clan affection for the Sharp Claw Division, but if the loss of the death battle is too serious, I am afraid it is not what they want, plus the three tribes are not subordinate to each other, and when the battle reaches a certain level, Zhang Quan lets them go, and they may not be willing to fight to the death with the base mountain. But this part of the leopards is the main force in this battle, and if they are defeated, then the enemy's entire line will definitely be defeated.
Therefore, taking these factors into consideration, Zhang Quan placed his breakthrough point on the enemy's left flank. The above donkey is under the donkey, and Zhang Quan still understands the wisdom of Tiandan horse racing. Let the Centaur Cavalry, a super-reinforced version of the Archers, crush the Leopard Man's super light infantry! As for the Bill Heavy Infantry that his left-wing kobolds were up against, it wasn't a matter of concern to think about the trip last night when Carters Limestone sneaked out with a large amount of gold and grain he had captured along the way.
Glenn and Thor led the centaur cavalry to charge on the right flank, Thor this guy, because of his performance a few days ago, caught Zhang Quan's eyes, he has a decisive and brave personality, and is more suitable for things like charging on the battlefield. Therefore, Zhang Quan officially promoted him to the deputy commander of the centaur unit, and together with Gülen, he led the centaurs on the right flank while slowly accelerating slowly, while estimating the distance between the two sides.
In the war of the orcs, the distance between the two sides is far greater than the distance of the ancient cold weapon war on the earth, this is because the orcs have strong physical strength, the charging speed is extremely fast, and the physical attenuation of long-distance running is also very slow, in a minute, the vast majority of the races of the orcs can run a distance of more than one kilometer.
Therefore, if the distance between the large arrays is too short and the buffer is not enough, then the fundamental meaning of the battle between the two armies will be lost.
Just like now, the two large formations of the Leopard People and the Base Mountain are about three kilometers apart from each other, and this distance, even if one side on the battlefield is attacked by the whole army, the other side has a certain amount of room for adaptation.
At a distance of three kilometers, the entire large array of the enemy, even in the eyes of the centaurs, had only a trace of black lines at the end of the horizon, almost invisible, and the centaurs advanced along the river bank on the right, two kilometers, one kilometer...... As the centaurs got closer and closer to the enemy, the image of the enemy gradually became clear in the eyes of the centaurs, and the pace of the whole team gradually began to accelerate, faster and faster, and the sound of horses' hooves was like a torrential rain, beating the hearts of the opposing leopard people.
The leopard people looked at the opposite centaur charging over, and for a while they forgot how to deal with it, this short-distance high-speed assault, rushing to kill the enemy's combat method, but their own leopard people's own stunts!
Most of the leopard people are not very clear about the power of the Centaur Cavalry in the base mountain, and some of the gossip from the road say that they are sudden heavenly soldiers and generals with amazing combat power, while others devalue them as worthless, thinking that their victory is purely by taking advantage of the surprise attack.
But at this moment, seeing the majesty of the centaur cavalry charging and such a neat formation, the leopard people understood that the enemy must not be underestimated. The leopard men on the left flank of the enemy army, protruding from the formation, prepared to meet the centaurs.
"The enemy is charging first, what should I do, how to block it," watching the centaur charge, the leader of the Leopard Bloodclaw reinforcements asked anxiously.
According to the advance arrangement of the leopards yesterday, the leopards with the strongest forces on the left flank should be the main force of the assault, and should increase the speed to attack before the enemy has attacked, but now, the time to accelerate has passed, and the leopards have no speed, and they do not dare to hedge with the centaurs who are about to increase to a rapid speed. The ferocious centaurs they encountered on the battlefield now were clearly not as useless as they had expected yesterday.
After a while, the Chinese army issued an order, ordering the leopards to imitate the heavy infantry tactics, set up their positions, first fight against the centaurs for a while, wait for the centaurs' momentum to dissipate, and then send reserves to attack, anyway, the leopards are two thousand, and the centaurs are only six hundred.
What the?
As soon as this order came out, the reinforcements were in an uproar.
"I, the leopards, have always been fearless warriors who charge into battle, and when have I ever done such a stupid thing of being beaten passively," the leader of the Bloodclaw clan shouted angrily.
"Even if we are passively beaten, then we have to have the capital to be beaten? Now we don't have enough iron armor, and we don't have long weapons, so what can we do to fight against the rushing centaur cavalry. "The leader of the Flying Claws is also extremely dissatisfied with the orders from above.
Several leopard leaders were noisy, and no one would resist this first formation, and in the middle of the dispute, the enemy was about to rush in front of him.
At this time, the leopard men in the front row of the entire left flank of the enemy army had not yet gathered in formation, and they were still as loose and sloppy as before.
Thor made a quick decision,
"Shall we rush straight into battle?" He asked his boss, Glenn, and the two contacted via communicator.
Gülen immediately replied:
"No, our cavalry strictly forbids charging and does not form a routed enemy formation!"
"But I think that although the enemy has not formed a rout, the formation has been loosened, and a little more impact is enough to crush them."
"No! We don't need to suffer unnecessary injuries. Gülen stood by her decision.
This short few words of dialogue happened in the process of charging, Thor was vetoed by Gülen his proposal, but he was unwilling to give up easily, seeing that the distance between him and the enemy was getting closer and closer, and the fighter plane was fleeting, as the commander of the front charge, Thor was heartbroken, and gave the order down, ready to charge directly!
Didi! The terrible whistle sounded desperately in the centaur cavalry, because the order to charge was given so suddenly that even the trained centaurs were a little caught off guard.
"Rush! Follow me! Thor sped up again, standing out of his cavalry formation, swinging his spear straight at the enemy!
Kill the past? The centaurs who were inspired by Thor's actions reached a unity in an instant, and the accumulated training allowed them to quickly adjust their balance and stride in a short period of time, line up a tight charging formation, follow Thor, and kill the leopards!
Kill!
Come on!
The loud shouts of hysterical hysteria from the centaurs whose emotions are aroused!
Although the leopards are strong orcs, they are one of the least defensible orc races, usually they rush to attack others, and now it is their turn to face this iron cavalry charge.
……
On the side of the large array, after the centaurs on the right flank charged, Zhang Quan's side did not stop, and after the order was passed down, the entire large array began to move forward slowly, first the minotaur heavy infantry in the center advanced, then the Bills on the right flank, and finally the kobolds on the left flank, they faced as many as 2,000 Bill heavy infantry who looked the thickest and strongest in the enemy's infantry formation.
The soldiers were silent, lined up in a neat phalanx, striding forward with the pace peculiar to the soldiers of the base mountain tribes, dripping ...... DiDi ...... At this moment, following the whistle from the commanders' mouths, all the soldiers stepped on a drumbeat. Thousands of former soldiers of the entire army stepped down, and the weight of more than 100,000 kilograms smashed to the ground at the same time, forming a huge momentum and pressing the enemy over.
Boom, boom, in the direction of the enemy in front of you.
