Chapter 185: Military Exercises (Part II)
This time, Deluka's Pegasus Legion changed their protection, abandoning the metal armor they had used in their previous battles and replacing it with specially made insulated soft armor.
The new Legion's weapons were all metal weapons, so the Pegasus Legion's standing metal armor was useful. And this time, because he knew his opponent in advance, Diluka made some changes. The First Legion's air defense missions were given to the Naga Witches, and the Witches were best at electric spells. Insulated Soft Armor is perfect for ground firepower, and Soft Armor can increase the mobility of Pegasi, giving it a huge advantage against huge facelesss.
The First Legion is not without change, Zonoz has worked out a new way of fighting based on the battle footage of the previous days, the previous battle The First Legion used sharp knives to assault, slicing through enemy units with tough strength, dividing the enemy into small pieces and eating them one by one. It is completely useless to fight the Pegasus Legion, which is small in number and can fly. The last time he went head-to-head with Deluca, he repelled the Pegasus only when Zonoz himself went into battle and paid for his serious injuries. This time, the air defense force is the focus of Zonoz, in the past, Zonoz divided the others, but this time it can't be divided by the Pegasus Legion, the Faceless One is assigned to various places, with the Faceless One as the core point, and the other infantry surrounds the side, resisting the air attack of the Pegasus Legion.
Instead of using high-speed assault to divide as before, the Pegasus Legion wandered high in the air, using its speed and agility to break into the First Legion's formation to test their airing. And the First Legion didn't use their secret weapon, still using Naga's electric spells.
After the temptation was over, the Pegasus began one raid after another, with the Faceless Waving his arms, the Pegasus Knights clamping their bellies, and the Pegasi spiraling to dodge, rushing through the first line of Faceless Defense, and the Knights facing the second Naga attack. The Nagas raised their crystals one after another, and beams of light shot out, and some Pegasus knights didn't have time to dodge being knocked down and captured by the nets of the fishmen of the third line.
The Nagas use Battle Crystals. Battle crystals equipped with energy of different attributes are something that the Pegasus Legion cannot defend against no matter what. Of course, these crystals are simulated crystals specially developed for the exercise.
At the sound of Diluka's order, the Pegasi flew back into the air, telling them to hover and throw their spears into the formation, which also caused some damage, and the knights' spears were thrown, and the Pegasus knights untied the white cloth wrapped around their saddles and replaced them with magic spears.
"Ready!
"Ready!
"Ready!
Three volleys were fired, and many soldiers of the First Legion fell in response, including one Faceless. The magic gun is also a drill bullet.
"Hmph!" Zonorz waved his hand, and the soldiers of the First Legion immediately raised their shields, which were also new products, a defense method that Glaze and Ligredo's troops learned during the battle. Of course, the Faceless don't, and their sheer size requires a lot of materials to get a shield.
The shield is indeed a good defense, but there are holes in any defense, and the first thing the Pegasus Legion hits is the Faceless, and all the Faceless who are attacked by concentrated fire are knocked down. The First Army is not just being beaten, but also fighting back. The First Legion is still defense, and the Pegasus has almost nothing. The crystal's beam shoots out through the gap in the shield, and the Pegasus Legion can only increase its height if it wants not to be damaged, but the accuracy and power of the shot will decrease when the height increases. After the Faceless is knocked down, it will be difficult for soldiers of normal stature to be hit. After a stalemate for a period of time because the two sides could not defeat each other, they continued to impact each other.
From the hillside, Primatis looked at the scene below and said, "Lord Richard, it's almost over, this battle can be over." β
Richard also nodded: "We have seen everything we want to see, order them to withdraw from the battlefield and withdraw from the battlefield." β
"Yes. Primatis raised the red flag in his hand, and the heralds rang the golden gong for the end of the order, and the sound of more than a dozen golden gongs spread throughout the battlefield under the spread of loudspeakers.
"Huh?" Primatis frowned, "why can't he stop." β
Richard covered his head: "I'm angry." There is already a grudge. ββ
"What then?" Primatis continued, looking at Richard, "do you want my troops to rush in and pull them apart?"
Richard smiled and shook his head: "No need, it's too troublesome, there's an easier way here." β
Richard pointed to Onexia hovering in the sky: "Onexia has been waiting up there for too long, making her move." β
"Toot ββ!" Richard pulled his lower lip and blew a high-pitched whistle, Onexia looked over, Richard pointed down, and made a parting motion, Onexia grinned excitedly, and suddenly flapped her wings and rushed down.
"Roar!" Onexia rushed in from the center of the Pegasus formation, and the air currents generated by Onexia's wings directly scattered the Pegasus Legion, and several cavalrymen did not expect an attack to appear from the sky and fell down steadily.
"Hmph. I can't ride steadily!" Onexia contracted her arms and flew as fast as she could, catching them underneath the knights.
"Huh?" the knights sighed in relief as they looked at the dragon beneath them, "I ...... Am I alive?"
"Hmph, shut your mouths and hold on!"
"Yes! Yes!" the knights hurried to grasp it, and for the first time, the knights, who had thought they were going to die, were so grateful to the soldiers of Richard's army.
"Huh? purr......"
Zonoz looked up at Onexia, shook his tentacles and found a place to sit down, since Onexia has entered the battlefield, then this battle can't be fought, and it's really unpleasant that the Pegasus army that failed to defeat Diluka.
"Roarβ"
Onexia rushed down at the First Legion, the first army was the unit that had followed Richard for the longest time, and they all knew what kind of temper Onexia was, a cute thing in front of Richard, and a beast in front of others. A group of soldiers hurriedly got out of the space and ran out.
With a "boom", Onexia smashed to the ground, and a dozen or so people were directly swept away by the air current, and Onexia was very satisfied with their frightened expressions, she liked to see these small creatures running around.
"Richard ordered! Stop the fighting, and prepare for each other!"
Onexia's loud voice spread throughout the battlefield, and the two scattered legions could not continue to fight, and each withdrew its troops.
Richard looked down, and the downed soldiers also got back on their feet, all of them had no big problems, turned his head and asked Primatis, "What do you think about air defense?"
