In the battle with the Mayan Empire, Kai and Will proposed an ambush, and similarly, the Lausanne Empire could use this method, just as it is now.
The convoy in front of him looks too strange, the Hurricane Division has ambushed the convoy several times, and generally speaking, the vehicles transported are proportional to the guards, and I have never seen so many people receive only fifty vehicles, which is too unreasonable.
Six thousand people are divided, and there are more than 100 people guarding a car, is it possible that the car is full of elemental crystals? And among these 6,000 people, there are also 1,000 fire snake soldiers, the elite troops of the Lausanne Empire, Feleg has never seen the combat effectiveness of this unit until now, looking at Jon's performance that day, the combat effectiveness of this unit should be very terrifying.
Starting from Feleg's own wishes, he wanted to fight this battle very much, and he didn't care what was in those fifty carts, and he couldn't take them away anyway, except for food, he had to destroy them on the spot. It was the 1,000 fire snake soldiers who were most interested in him.
However, fighting a war is not child's play, and those who calculate others will also be calculated by others. Not to mention him, even Phil and Maya, there is no way to tell if this is a trap or not.
There was a sound of footsteps from behind the mountain, and finally waiting for the return of the scouts, within a radius of ten kilometers, there were no other troops except this escort army, but at fifteen kilometers, there was a small barracks, about a division of security troops.
The vehicles in the distance slowed down, and several light cavalry detachments separated from the convoy and ran cautiously towards it, apparently outposts, and this convoy was acting with great caution.
"Ate him. Phil said.
"It shouldn't be a trap. Maya said, and the two said it almost at the same time.
At the same time, Feleg understood that if it was a trap, it would not be appropriate to have a barracks fifteen kilometers away. Although the Lausanne Empire did not know how many people there were, the approximate number of people could still be predicted after a few battles. Fifteen kilometers, too close, the cavalry will not need an hour, they can arrive.
"Action, trumpets and drums. Feleg gritted his teeth and made a final decision.
The low horn of "Woo ......" is moving, and the sound of war drums makes people's blood boil.
A group of knights rushed out from the foot of the mountain, led by Kai, and behind them were two thousand Hurricane warriors. This is a frontal attack, of course this is only a feint, and the real killers come from both sides of this convoy.
The terrain here is not very good. Except for this hill, which can block the view, the rest of the place is a flat river, and the official road is a kilometer away from the hill. It is just right to allow the cavalry to exert its maximum combat power, but it also gives the opponent a little time to make defensive moves.
With the trumpets and war drums, several groups of light horsemen who explored the way did not hesitate at all, and immediately formed a horizontal line. The sparse front composed of hundreds of soldiers, coupled with the combat power of the light cavalry, is afraid that even the charge of the infantry will not be able to stop it, which is completely sent to death, just to buy a little time for the men and horses of this team.
A flame flashed in Phil's eyes, this is a powerful enemy army, since entering the Western Continent, he has gone through more than twenty battles before and after, and he also has an intuitive understanding of the military strength of the Western Continent. Aside from that battle against the Martial God, this will be the most difficult battle.
Don't look at the other party, there are only 6,000 people, but the fighting spirit and quality they show are definitely not comparable to those security forces. Even in the previous battles with the regular army, I had never seen such a strong army.
"I'll go, this unit is not ordinary. Maya said, retreating from the back mountain, having seen her command skills, Feleg gave her two thousand men to command. After several battles, it has been proven that her command skills are not below Phil, and she is much better than both Kay and Will.
At the same time as the horn sounded, the enemy had already reacted, and five hundred fire snake soldiers lined up in five columns, standing at the front of the line, with a thousand cavalry on each side, and a hundred fire snake troops and a thousand cavalry surrounded the fifty carts and closed them in the middle.
The other 400 Fire Serpent Army and 2,000 cavalry, divided into two groups and lined up in an inclined queue, sandwiched the vehicles in the middle, and in the blink of an eye, a solid triangle had been formed, and the vehicles were tightly wrapped in the center of the triangle.
The 100 Serpent soldiers in the middle quickly climbed onto the roof of the car, and two people stood on each car, holding black wooden sticks in both hands, watching the hurricane riders getting closer and closer in the distance.
Dozens of soldiers jumped off their horses, opened a cart, took out small boxes from the cart and piled them on the ground, and the cavalry around them each took one and stood behind the fire snake soldiers to protect their safety.
"It's not right, Ein-senpai, you and Kaidi should go over too, I feel very uncomfortable. Feleg saw the enemy's formation, and there was an indescribable uneasiness in his heart, in fact, it was not only him, but Ein and Kaidi had the same feeling.
"Well, I'll go right away. Ein nodded and walked away with Cady.
"Phil, let them all go up, I'm still a little ...... To be afraid, yes is to be afraid. Feleg finally figured out what he was feeling uneasy, but how could he be afraid? Regardless of the fact that Feleg was only a little over sixteen years old, he could be regarded as a battle-hardened battle-hardened battleman, and he had fought more skirmishes than the regular army of Auckland.
"Scared? Phil said, waving his hand, the four Tony, plus the eight surviving martial saints of the Mayan Empire, also went to the battlefield, they also didn't understand, in the case of the superiority in numbers, did the hurricane division still need the help of these martial saints? At least not before, there had never been anything like it. Since the commander gave the order, they still carried it out very cooperatively, killing some small soldiers, of course, there was no problem for them, they were just too lazy to do it.
"Wu Li, I'm still not at ease, let the magic crystal cannon prepare. Feleg's heart was beating at a rate that even he couldn't comprehend. Six thousand hurricane warriors against six thousand enemies, one-to-one combat power, even Caesar's heavy cavalry is not an opponent. What's more, there are two magicians, even if they are Maya's thirteen martial saints, this kind of strength, even if it is enough to deal with a legion, even if it can't be completely annihilated, it should be no problem to defeat, he is still not at ease, and he actually wants to use the best trump card in his hand, ten magic crystal cannons.
"Come on, that's enough. Wu Li said hesitantly.
"Go. Feleg's face sank like water, it was the first time Wu Li saw him with such an expression, he didn't say anything, he immediately turned around and retreated, summoned the ten magic apprentices, and asked them to set up the magic crystal cannon.
The effective distance of the magic crystal cannon is three kilometers away, and the enemy convoy can be hit from behind the mountain, and there are hundreds of Feleg's personal guards here, plus the two martial saints of Phil and Wu Li, there should be no problem in safety.
The fire snake soldiers were motionless, the cavalry on both sides did not even draw out their broadswords, and they looked like they were watching a good show, Kai and the two thousand cavalry had already increased their speed to the maximum, and in a moment they had already run half a kilometer away, and they were less than a kilometer away from the enemy.
A kilometer away at the foot of a war horse running at full speed, at most more than a minute, how dare the enemy be so careless in such a short distance? Feleg's palms were full of sweat, and Kai was just as nervous, he was not a good commander, but the soldier's intuition told him that something was wrong.
Five soldiers stood behind the commander with the order flag of the Blood Red Army in their hands, and the first command flag was raised, constantly shaking in the air. A hundred fiery snakes flew out from the black sticks, and the front was full of Hurricane Division fighters, and they didn't miss without aiming.
"Fire snake?" Feleg jumped up from the ground in shock, yes, it was indeed fire snake magic, a high-level magician's specialty, which saved more magic power than the fire dragon. Among the magic mastered by high-level magicians, the fire snake is the fastest one, and its power is ordinary.
Of course, this usually refers to mages and high-ranking samurai. Although the high-level magician is not powerful, it depends on who he is facing.
Feleg definitely didn't believe that these hundred people were high-level magicians, the problem was that there were magic weapons that could shoot high-level magic.
Feleg absolutely did not believe that these 100 people were high-level magicians, the problem was that on the black stick, there were actually magic weapons that could shoot high-level magic? Of course it was possible, why couldn't it be? Antonio could invent the magic crystal cannon, why couldn't the Western Continent have it? Conversion magic array, fart, it was simply the activation formation invented by Antonio. At this moment, Feleg had fully understood Jon's self-confidence, and the casualness of the enemy army in front of him was really fearless.
It is true that there are no magicians among these people, not even a martial saint, but with a black stick in his hand, it is equivalent to a thousand high-level magicians, and this power is almost equivalent to one-third of the strength of the magicians of the Auckland Empire. This is nothing, he clearly remembers, Jon once said that the Lausanne Empire has five fire snake divisions, that is, a full fifty thousand high-level magicians?
What about the smaller number of fire dragon chariots? It can't be just an iron chariot, if you guess correctly, that kind of iron chariot must have a weapon similar to the magic crystal cannon installed in it, and the magic used is a fire dragon.
"Order the magic crystal cannon to fire immediately, as fast as possible, without interruption. Feleg yelled at the star officer beside him, now he has no way to consider the number of magic crystals, this mission, the number of magic crystals rationed by the Hurricane Division is quite a hundred, which is already one-third of what the Auckland Empire has.
The fire snake crossed the distance of eight hundred meters in an instant, and rows of war horses fell to the ground with a neigh. The temperature of the fire snake is very high, but it does not last long, since only a few seconds are enough to burn ordinary armor reddish, the warriors in the armor will be severely burned, but rarely die. For the warriors in the charge, this is an extremely terrifying magic, even less refreshing than the fire dragon, which is directly burned to charcoal, and death on the battlefield is sometimes not terrible.
