The first to come into contact were the vanguard cavalry and elite cavalry led by Luka. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 infoThese mounted mercenaries, all equipped with the finest armor and sharp weapons, completely ignored the opponent's numerical superiority and rushed straight into the ambush to the north. The moment the cavalry rushed into the enemy line, Fidel realized that this battle would be a battle to the death, and anyone who took a step back would be torn apart.

The vanguard cavalry consciously circled the sides of the ambush corps to the north, and then charged the enemy from the left and right. The rest of the more than 200 elite cavalry had already taken out knightly swords and spears, and they were like a knife that peeled off the belly of fresh fish and fish, tearing apart those enemies on foot. Many of the enemies who had wanted to pick up their crossbows to fend off the cavalry had not yet fired an arrow, and the elite cavalry of the Potato Mercenary Regiment had already been killed, causing them to be too late to change their weapons or pick up shields.

As soon as the mercenaries guarding the center saw that the cavalry squadron led by Lukka was invincible like a whirlwind, their original nervous mood was immediately covered by excitement, and the invincible troops of the plain made everyone angry, and every mercenary was already gearing up, drawing out their weapons and preparing to fight with the ambush corps approaching from the south and east.

The enemies to the east and south drew their bows and arrows after reaching a certain distance, preparing to launch a long-range attack on the mercenaries sitting in the middle of the plain.

"No! we're going to suffer a lot at this distance!" Jasmine has already seen the clue! Her subordinates are all equipped with portable crossbows for individual use, and the power of this kind of crossbow machine at short distances is terrifying, and neither accuracy nor speed can be matched by bows and arrows. However, the bow the enemy is now wielding a longwood bow, which greatly increases the range of the attack by throwing arrows at a distance, inflicting damage on them standing at a distance. However, Jasmine's crossbowmen team can only rely on the wind to increase the attack range, but unfortunately there is no wind on the plains now, which is fair to both sides.

Jasmine was eager to immediately send her men back to the armory in Dumu City to retrieve another heavy crossbow, the kind of crossbow that could exert great power in defense and siege warfare, which required two or even three people to operate at the same time, and had a much longer range than a longbow, but it was too late.

"Shield-wielding troops!" Jasmine shouted, "Crossbowmen stand behind the shield-wielding troops, and approach the enemy until they are within range!"

Both Leonard and Franklin realized the seriousness of the problem, and they immediately commanded the shield-wielding infantry to stand up, and some of the crossbowmen who were still retreating had been shot by arrows flying from a distance, and the medical team that accompanied the regiment immediately rushed forward to pull the wounded mercenaries back into the encirclement of the regiment. If Jasmine had reacted a little slower, the losses of the Potato Mercenary Group would have been very serious.

"Squadron Leader, those arrows are falling from the sky! it's hard for even shield-wielding troops to resist!" Leonard shouted.

Jasmine frowned, "There's no way, now I can only get closer!"

"Go ahead! maybe my ballista cart will come in handy!" Toto was protected by a few mercenaries, who had no weapons on him, but who had brought with him a test item—a ballista cart that claimed to be capable of bursting.

"Then let your ballista cart return fire first! Wait until my men get close to the enemy!" Jasmine looked at the ballista cart that had been brought by Captain Toto, looking cumbersome and complicated. When she left Dumu City, she teased the other party that using such a heavy weapon to kill thieves is like using an axe to cut mosquitoes! Who would have thought that the lightly armed crossbowmen would become a weak point, and this bulky guy might be able to turn the tide.

It was only after Fidel had entered a state of engagement in the remaining three directions that his squadron reached two hundred meters from the enemy to the west. The enemy regiments to the west also drew their bows and began to shoot at Fidd's men.

"Dispersal!" Fielder didn't pull out the sword on his back, he picked up the moon shield and blocked it above his head, and rushed to the front. Some of the arrows that hit him were blocked by the "Black Flash", and a refined plate armor like the "Black Flash" needed a sophisticated crossbow machine to have a chance to shoot through, and ordinary arrows were like cotton falling on him, and they couldn't hurt him at all. But his subordinates were different, most of these mercenaries were armed with two-handed weapons, and they were extremely heavy when they ran. Fortunately, Fid ordered everyone to disperse, otherwise they would have been killed or wounded before they could rush into enemy lines.

Winoki, Patrick, and Noor each scattered with some of their men, and Noor had already been hit by an arrow in the shoulder, but the arrow did not stop him at all, but caused Noor to roar and kill the enemy. Armed with an enchanted weapon, Noor was the first to rush into the enemy's ranks, but he was immediately surrounded by the enemy, not knowing whether he was heroic or killed.

When Fid gave the Sun to Noor, he taught him how to use the blood-absorbing enchanted halberd, but Noor had a hard time understanding what control enchantment was, and he only thought of it as an old weapon that didn't quite work. Even so, Noor's courage as a squadron leader to take the lead greatly encouraged the others, and all of Fidel's men roared like beasts and charged into the enemy line.

"These guys are mercenaries!" Patrick held a long iron sword in each hand, like a spiky spinning top, and cut down more than a dozen enemies standing at the front. The "dragon blade" on his body also made him even more terrifying, and some of his enemies fled as soon as they saw Patrick.

"That's right, they're not rebels!" replied Fid after stunting an enemy with his shield. The mark on the enemy's body is not the "hammer smashing the crown" of the rebels, but a tree! The opponent in front of him is much stronger than the rebels, and it seems that he is also a well-trained mercenary.

The potato mercenary group, which was divided into three parts, had already engaged with the enemy troops attacking from four directions, and the two sides were still fighting together, and the originally peaceful plain instantly became a bloody battlefield, and few people could stay out of it.

"Is that all your henchman has this kind of?" Clermont opened his lips, which had been closed, and a black eagle that had been hovering in the air flew back to his shoulder, and the only rebels involved in this battle were him and his black eagle.

Orlando has deep eyes, a high nose bridge and white teeth, compared to the unsmiling rebel cadres, this handsome and dashing, jade tree in the wind mercenary leader always has a smile, there is no ambiguity in that smile, only contempt, "The oak mercenary group is not my follower, they are the only mercenary group in the Three Duchy that I can look at, the reason is very simple, because their leader is also quite handsome." ”

Clermont flapped the black eagle's wings with his hand, and the black eagle flew towards the forest to the southeast, "That is to say, you don't consider his strength, only his appearance." ”

"He's better than me," Orlando said with a laugh, "and of course, when I'm not serious." "The leader of this beautiful boy mercenary group wears crimson full-body plate armor, and the more than 500 subordinates behind him are all unhelmeted like Orlando. Each of these mercenaries without helmets was a handsome male, and their equipment was delicate and valuable, as if they were a group of mercenary groups composed of a group of aristocratic youths.

Orlando continued: "Vaughn could have been my deputy, but unfortunately he was not willing to be subservient. But that's fine, if he loses this battle, maybe he'll be willing to be my subordinate. Orlando pointed to a man behind the ambush group to the east, who was the only Oak mercenary on horseback, who was probably Orlando's Commander Vaughn.

"Flashy. ”

"Then we'll see. ”

Toto personally pushed the half-human-high, three-meter-long, two-meter-wide ballista cart behind the crossbowmen, and the killing machine was equipped with ballistae the size of a riding gun, each of which Toto had carefully improved, and he had attached something to it.

"My ballista cart can attack a distance of four hundred meters, you stand farther away!" Toto let the mercenaries in front of him disperse, and he began to calibrate the ballista cart with two men, aiming at the infantry regiment to the east.

I saw Toto pick up an axe and slash at the special crossbow string with his own hands!

A ballista filled with shards of glass and sharp gravel immediately ejected, slicing through the air and flying towards the formation of more than a thousand mercenaries. The first mercenary who was hit by the ballista was instantly torn apart by it, and the ballista that exploded also caused dozens of mercenaries around him to be hit by sharp objects such as glass and gravel, causing massive damage in an instant! Some mercenaries were blinded by glass shards, some mercenaries were cut in their throats by the splattered shards, and some were hit in the head by the rubble and killed instantly!

The second ballista had already been raised to the firing position by the auto after the first shot was fired, and the mercenaries beside Toto were immediately replaced with another special crossbow string. The first ballista was less than ten seconds away from the second, which is faster than a crossbowman reloads his bolts!

"Keep attacking!" Toto ordered, this time with his men splitting the crossbow string.

The Oak Mercenary Regiment's team of more than 1,000 people was disrupted by a ballista cart, and the mercenaries scattered in order to avoid the deadly shards, and any mercenaries who walked slowly would be hit by the shards. Jasmine's men had already gotten close enough to attack in the rain of arrows, and they immediately picked up their crossbows and fired back. Jasmine never thought that a ballista cart would disrupt the enemy's formation, and she thought that if a ballista squadron was formed in the future, it would greatly improve the potato mercenary group's positional warfare capabilities.

The ranged troops in the east and south are attacking each other, and there are many casualties on both sides; while the charging cavalry in the north has won a great victory, and all the mercenaries of the Oak Mercenary Regiment on foot have died under the iron hooves, and the infantry regiment of hundreds of people has been wiped out in just ten minutes;

"This land of the people is about to be stained red by the filthy blood of the greedy. Clermont raised a hand, palmed it toward the sky, and a small drop of rain fell on his palm.
