Chapter 42: The Winged Demon and the Ambush
Along the way, the roads and villages are dense, and you can see windmills and aqueducts from time to time. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Niu Jingtian flew while thinking in pieces: "There is a beautiful manor here, this is a big town, well, let the dog head come back and turn it over after the battle...... Oh no, what kind of creature is this big group of red creatures in the distance?
The kobold convoy that got the signal, from the forward to the rearguard, was simply a man on his back, and in order to pull those few cannons, it occupied hundreds of arquebusiers, and now they have to set up a car formation, and they have to take equipment from the car, how to describe it in a random word.
Fortunately, this time the enemy appeared directly in front of the team, and the forward team of the two musket companies, because they had to clear those monsters that were not long-eyed, maintained a good battle formation, and received an early warning from A, so they had more time to respond.
The kobold finally put out a 'sugar gourd array' -- this array was invented by Brother Long, and the front army consisted of two companies of dogheads to form a small cart formation, with hundreds of artillery and a company of musketeers in the middle to form a larger cart formation -- although the artillerymen also brought some muskets, the level of training was not enough, and an additional musket company was strengthened.
Finally, two musket companies at the end of the team formed a rearguard formation.
In the distance, a thin red line was getting closer and closer, and Ushiida, who had excellent eyesight, could already see clearly, it was a large group of big demons with red skin, with two horns on their heads, all of them with naked upper bodies, revealing strong muscles, and behind these monsters, there were two huge red fleshy wings.
"Oops, it's the Winged Demon I've seen in the swamp!"
Niu Ida hurriedly informed everywhere: "Everyone listen, they all get under the cart, and the shield hand blocks both sides of the cart!"
The kobold's first contact with the Winged Demon was in the swamp, and at that time, it was quite difficult - these creatures were all over 1.8 meters in size, their strength was not below that of the Minotaur, and at the same time, they could use their wings to fly for a short time.
Thankfully, the swamp terrain was too harsh for these beasts to run, and in order to fly, they didn't even wear armor, so they were picked up by kobolds who could only use crossbows.
But this time, there was no more silt and stagnant water to trap these monsters, the speed of the Wing Demon was extremely fast, and it only took a few minutes to kill in front of him, and at the same time, the three kobolds in the car formation had just turned under the cart, and the shields were piled up in a mess.
More than a hundred giant beasts with a height of two meters, running, amazing, these monsters have tangled muscles, and can glide for short distances, there is no doubt that they are fierce beasts that humans cannot compete with - human beings suffer in physical strength, and can only fight in formation, but for flying creatures, this formation is equivalent to useless.
The ground was trembling, and the demon's low and hoarse roar could be heard clearly by Ushiida, who was flying in the sky, "No, I have to go to the front to command......"
At this time, a trembling voice came from the forward car formation: "Ma Qianzhi company, all aim ~~"
Nearly a hundred black hole barrels stretched out from under the car, silently pointing at the beasts running wildly ahead.
Then, Brother Long shouted in a trembling voice: "Ma Qianzhi Company, shoot! Shoot freely!"
Almost a series of gunshots rang out, and the avant-garde car formation was almost drowned in gunsmoke, and at this time, the winged demons who had rushed to the front of the formation screamed in a row. More than sixty muskets were barely missed.
Although the dogheads had only touched the arquebus for a month, they had been playing with the one-handed crossbow for several months, and the level was by no means ambiguous. The reason why arquebus pistols on the earth plane are poor is that there is no crosshair on the wall at all, and second, there are too few live ammunition.
Among the demons, a particularly huge demon let out a few short and piercing roars, and then the huge wings behind him opened suddenly, Niu Ida only felt a flower in front of him, this giant beast suddenly spread its wings and flew up, in a few breaths, most of the winged demons spread their wings and jumped, the sky was bloody, a large piece of flesh wings obscured the sun, and the winged demons crossed the barrier formed by the car formation, and flew deep into the center of the avant-garde car formation.
In the avant-garde car formation, Brother Long was still shouting again and again: "Ma Qianzhi Company, free shooting! Timo Company, free shooting! Pay attention to the barrel of the gun, don't hit my ......."
In the central convoy, Guan Renxiu was about to cry anxiously: "Oh no, my brother is in front, what should I do?"
Tessfield: "Don't worry, with me, I'll go and save him!" But ah, don't worry too much even if he is cut in two, I said it, this crossing is 100,000 safe, he will be resurrected in the original world, and there will be no injuries at all!"
“......”
Niu Jingtian also breathed a sigh of relief at this time, of course he could go to the avant-garde car formation to command, but the effect might not be much better than Brother Long, and it would also delay one thing - sending reinforcements to support.
"Hold on, Brother Long, as long as you give me a minute, you can organize the reinforcements!"
He flew to the guard car formation as fast as he could, and roared: "Ye Batian Company, Morning Slow Bear Company, come out in formation, remember that it is a three-line shooting horizontal formation!"
In the avant-garde car formation, the gunfire continued to sound like firecrackers. It was already a mess, and it was a complete mess when I looked at it, and the deafening roar of demons and kobolds were all mixed together.
Tesfil had already finished his protective magic and rushed over, but his vision was blocked by the smoke of gunpowder, and he could only vaguely see a few winged demons overturning the cart, and a few kobolds crawling all over the ground, looking for a car to drill.
She could only lose a few shadow tentacles, third-level monster summoning spells, and spells like mud cows entering the sea, and she didn't know what the effect was.
At this time, 400 kobold guards joined the battlefield:
"One Two One Wang ~ One Two One Wang ~"
Three columns of kobold line infantry, lined up in three rows of shooting horizontal formations, step by step through the battlefield gunsmoke, approaching the avant-garde car formation.
"Stand!"
"Raise your gun!"
"Aim!"
With a few commands, the kobolds took sides, a whole row of thick black barrels, pointing at the battlefield in the mist.
Niu Jingtian shouted: "Listen to everything inside, lie down, the old man said ******** heart: I don't know how many knots Brother Long has been cut into, I hope what Tesfield said is true, and he can be full of blood and blue will be the resurrection point of the earth."
Turning back to the kobold of the two companies, he shouted: "Ye Batian Company, Morning Slow Bear Company, aim above the vehicle, don't accidentally injure friendly soldiers, listen to my orders, first platoon, shoot!"
The kobold musketeers were silent, holding their barrels neatly flat, one hundred and thirty-three barrels like a row of fences, pointing at the formation of cars 50 meters away.
"Boom-"
With a thunderclap, a wall of gunpowder smoke erupted in front of the line infantry formation, and the top strength of Niu Jingtian could even see that countless small lead bullets were pulling white smoke, and locusts flew towards the car formation dozens of meters away.
"Boom-boom"
There were two more thunderclaps in a row, and Ushiida's eardrums buzzed, as if there was no other sound between heaven and earth.
After the three-wheel design, the fog of gunsmoke became thicker, and Ushiida felt that the design effect might not be good, after all, if you shoot at the top of the car formation, God knows what will be hit.
The arquebuses of the kobold are all three-person groups, with bipods, although the loading is faster, but the number of people is too much to occupy space, only alternate forward shooting, in order to just maintain the formation, and a few rounds of design, two companies of the rearguard, has touched the car formation not far away, faintly from the battlefield fog, see a little outline of the car formation.
"Moo~~"
With a roar, a winged demon fell from the sky, his eyes were blood-red and covered in blood, and one arm drooped down, and he pounced on the line infantry.
"Cut, lost dog," Niu Ida patted a squad leader beside him: "Your class, aim for this one, shoot in three stages!"
After thinking about it, he gave another order: "Listen, everyone, continue to shoot in three stages, but retreat while shooting instead!"
After a few rounds of gunfire, the huge winged demon burst out with six huge blood holes on its body, and after only shaking it twice, it fell to the ground like a puddle of mud.
This order caused a certain amount of confusion in the ranks, with some of the musketeers carrying it out and others moving on in a panic.
Fortunately, the company commander and platoon commander were all intellectually qualified guys, and they quickly stabilized the team, one after another, and the winged demons kept falling in front of the formation, trying to rush to the line of infantry.
In the end, Tesfil, who lacked a sense of presence, finally lost a suitable magic: wind making - a gust of wind blew through the chaotic array of cars, and everyone's vision finally returned to normal.
"I'm tired of the old man, this micro-operation is too troublesome, and the AI is too low......"
The battle was clear, and the line infantry stopped firing, because there were no winged demons to fly out of the formation, and they were either beaten into a sieve or lying on the ground, learning from the kobolds, and they were already certain to be defeated.
The kobolds of the two companies, plus Tesfield, swaggered forward, several platoons assigned targets, and the few fish that slipped through the net were shot and fell to the ground, and there was no way to live.
The only regret is that when the smoke was at its thickest, several lightly injured winged demons saw the opportunity to flee for their lives, and they had already escaped a few hundred meters and couldn't catch up.
"It's a pity that the dog head doesn't have cavalry, you're lucky. ”
Inside and outside the car formation, there were corpses, the vehicle was overturned nearly halfway, and Brother Long also climbed out, because he was too slow to climb the bottom of the car, he ate two knives in the buttocks.
Fortunately, I wore leather armor before, and the demon obviously didn't know how to use the knife, but it cut the skin, and it was a little swollen from being smashed, so it shouldn't have hurt the bones.
"Brother, 555, are you okay? It's too dangerous here, why don't we go back......?"
Guan Renxiu's frightened face was pale, but Brother Long was very calm:
"It's okay, it's okay, the ground is too dirty, I crawled a little slower, and I will definitely not hurt my ass next time!"
After cleaning the wound, he will probably have to lie on his stomach in the car and hit the road for the next few days.
After counting the casualties, he lost more than 30 dog heads, almost half of which were accidentally injured by his own people, but he harvested more than 120 demon corpses, all of which were very powerful winged demons.
