To be honest, spearmen are not a class suitable for charging in the first place, especially when charging in formation, it is even more difficult.

Let them run two or three hundred meters, it will definitely be finished, not only will they be out of breath, their arms will be sore, the formation will definitely be scattered, and it will be easy for the enemy to chop melons and vegetables.

But a distance of only 50 meters is not a big problem - Luo Ming has specially trained this, because he often relies on the defense line to carry out operations, and finds that after the soldiers break through the defense line for 50 meters, they can just push back the enemy by a large margin, and then they can quickly return to the defense line and regroup.

So, the dense gun forest advanced at the speed of a human trot, and stabbed towards the scattered Beran soldiers.

Swords, tomahawks, or single spears, or bows and crossbows, no amount of weaponry could stop the fire.

Ordinary soldiers died instantly, even if they were wearing heavy armor or holding shields, and were not immediately impaled through the body, they would be beaten by the force of multiple spears and vomit blood, and they would be pushed directly to the ground, and then trampled by the phalanx.

And although the barrel of the gun is wood, it is not so easy to be cut, and ordinary swords can only cut a crack when they cut it.

Heavy axes, big swords, or strong people with fighting spirit can do it, but generally they cut off one or two guns, and they will be pierced by other spear heads.

And even if the gun is broken, a simple wooden rod can actually knock people over at this speed, and even break the internal organs and cause internal bleeding.

Who says you can't stab someone without a gun? If you get the right position, an ordinary person can kill someone with a mop stick.

Of course, the front of this phalanx is extremely strong, and the flanks are very lacking.

In the history of the earth and this realm, there have often been cases where the spear phalanx is invulnerable in the front, but it is attacked by the enemy from the side or back, and it has been crushed.

However, Luo Ming and several swordsmen in the coalition army, as well as some sword and shield men and halberd soldiers, stayed around the phalanx to protect them.

A Beran officer shouted with a saber and soon gathered a dozen soldiers to attack from the flank.

However, the swordsmen took out their swords one after another, and one after another sword qi flew out, and the officer waved his saber while dodging, and the saber was wrapped with fighting qi, and he actually blocked a sword qi.

But after all, it was several swordsmen who shot together, and he couldn't completely dodge it, and it was impossible to block all the attacks.

His armor shattered, his flesh exploded, and he wanted to open his mouth to say something, but he only spewed out bright red flesh and fragments of internal organs, and fell down with his eyes stared, dead and dead.

As soon as the stragglers guarding the flanks of the phalanx swarmed up, they scattered the Beran soldiers, who had lost their officers and had barely assembled.

The morale of the vanguard of Belan had fallen to the extreme, and many of the Belan soldiers panicked and began to flee, but by this time the current had not completely dispersed, the stream was deeper, and the banks became more muddy, hindering their escape.

Stuck in the mud, or escaping into the water, exposing your back, is just being easily killed.

Although the soldiers behind Belan wanted to come to the rescue, they could not cross the stream and the muddy bank for a while - the original pile of filling had been washed away by more than half, and now the speed would be severely reduced if they had to cross the river, and then they would be easily killed by the enemy on the muddy riverbank.

The vanguard of Belan was almost killed, and Luo Ming decisively ordered the whole army to retreat to the position, although there were still a few fish in the Beran army, they were also frightened and did not dare to pursue them in turn.

"Spearmen charged?

Vytautas watched the actions of the coalition forces on the other side, and at first he subconsciously wanted to rub his eyes, and he asked the mage to check if there was any illusion, while thinking about the feasibility of this tactic.

It soon became clear to him that this trick was theoretically feasible – and in reality, it was difficult to do for a variety of reasons.

The mage reported that he found no trace of illusion, and he had to admit that the enemy did do it, and it was also a great inspiration for him.

But this inspiration is of little use - the Beran Federation does not engage in spear phalanxes, and it is naturally difficult to come in handy for such things as spear phalanx charges. At most, it's just that you will be more vigilant against the enemy's phalanx in the future.

"Tsk...... It looks like we need to prepare some ballistas. He thought.

The spear phalanx was not invulnerable, and although Luo Ming dressed them in good armor, which was difficult to damage with ordinary bows and arrows, the ballista was different.

Loading the cart with a giant crossbow that requires two people to pull the string together, and firing heavier arrows is enough to shoot through heavy armor from a distance of 100 meters, and against a dense phalanx, it may be able to penetrate two or three people at once.

Although the opponent also has a strange siege engine that fires iron balls to bombard the ballista, as long as you get more ballistae and break up the phalanx before the ballista is completely annihilated, and then the Belan cavalry goes up to slaughter, and that kind of siege machine is easy to deal with without infantry cover.

Or let the mage group join forces to bombard, which is also a way.

Being able to lead the army as a general, even if it is only a deputy general, is definitely not a fool, he quickly figured out a way and reported it to the main general.

It's just that now it's difficult for a good woman to cook without rice, and the Lord will listen to his advice, although he thinks it makes sense, but there is no way at the moment.

Ballistas and the like, although the Beran Federation is not impossible to manufacture, but because they are fighting a high-speed invasion war this time, their transportation capacity is limited, so they did not bring it.

Only another large siege engine was brought with him - but that was against the castle, and the bombardment phalanx was a cannon to fight mosquitoes.

And if the mage group joins forces to bombard, firstly, it is more wasteful of mana, and secondly, the mage group is easy to be counterattacked by artillery when they get together, and those mages don't want to do this.

However, the other party should not be able to use this trick a second time.

It is impossible for the coalition forces to cut off the back route of the Belan soldiers with a second water attack, and if they dare to charge the phalanx again, although it will still be powerful at first, the Belan reinforcements will immediately kill and besiege it from the flank before the phalanx retreats, destroying it.

With this in mind, he immediately gave the order for the soldiers to start filling up the streams, marshes, and ditches again.

The coalition forces took advantage of the counteroffensive just now to dig up a lot of filled up places again, and this time they had to spend a lot of lives to refill the blockage!

However, although nearly a thousand men have been lost now, and there will definitely be many more losses to come, in the eyes of the top brass of the Beran army, including Vytautas, it is actually worth it.

If the coalition is defeated here, Van Shee County will basically be a woman stripped naked, and the commander of Deberan can drive straight in.

Next, the Beran army can achieve a huge strategic advantage!

Even if a few thousand soldiers are consumed for this, it is still a great achievement!
