Chapter 363: The Undefeatable Centaur Legion
"You...... Have you fought against an army of centaurs?" Before the sycophant Ayman Baker could speak of his past exploits, Nilou interrupted him and questioned him. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
"Yes...... Hehe......" Yaheng Baker glanced at everyone standing around the pine round table, and when he noticed that almost everyone was looking at him with suspicious expressions, even Rebecca, who might be his daughter-in-law in the future, looked at him with a suspicious face, and he laughed at himself.
After laughing, Yaheng Baker took a deep breath, then let out a long breath, and then, raising his eyes, looking at the sky shrouded in pine trees, recalled: "Although I have always been a civilian official, I rarely participate in wars, but, who has never been young, when I was a child, the Baker family had a conflict with a centaur tribe in the north named Tianfeng, and I also participated in that war!"
"Hey......" After a long sigh, Yaheng Baker continued in a bleak tone: "The result of the war was our crushing victory, that time, our family faced only a thousand enemies, we killed three hundred of them, and we sacrificed a thousand of them, including one of my own brothers, that is the brother I admire and admire the most, if he is still alive, I cannot become the patriarch of the Baker family, of course, if he is still alive, the Baker family will not be led to decline by me." ”
"Don't worry, since the Baker family has mixed up with me, not to mention anything else, it is still very simple to restore the glory of the past again, after all, the troubled times are coming, whoever can survive in the troubled times, in the future, who will have the right to speak, you can rest assured, we can survive, because, we are getting stronger and stronger......" Wang Xu whispered to persuade Yaheng Baker.
To tell the truth, Wang Xu's words to comfort Yaheng Baker are purely groundless nonsense, he himself is worried, how to persevere in this troubled world, to this day, he does not have a perfect idea, he is not afraid of the enemy to challenge clearly, this kind of enemy means clearly, even if he can't beat it, he can still run away.
Wang Xu is very afraid of the enemy's coming, for example: the plague goddess Golia suddenly released the plague in Hill City or the great demon king Zagu suddenly came to Hill City to start the slaughter, if he encountered the above two situations or similar situations, Wang Xu really couldn't deal with it, even if he responded, it would have to sacrifice a lot of people, and even, maybe the people of Hill City would all die.
Although Wang Xu has no confidence in himself, but, for some reason, Yaheng Baker is full of confidence in Wang Xu, after receiving Wang Xu's comfort, the original lonely expression on Yaheng Baker's face suddenly disappeared, replaced by a look of excitement, he shouted: "Yes, with His Royal Highness Prince Julio here, we will definitely be able to make a difference in the troubled times, and even, we may become the overlord of the Eastern Continent, I believe you, His Royal Highness Prince Io......"
As soon as he heard that Ahyan Baker's sycophant was guilty again, Wang Xu hurriedly raised his right palm to stop him, and asked in a low voice: "I understand what you mean, now is not the time to talk about this, can you tell us what the weaknesses of the centaur warriors are, it is better to talk about their individual weaknesses and the weaknesses of the legion's combat?"
"Yes, Your Royal Highness Prince Villao," Finally, Ahyan Baker's sycophancy was over, and he got down to business: "Centaur warriors are strong individual strength, good at long-range attacks with bows and arrows and spears, and since their lower bodies are the body of horses, they move fast, therefore, in one-on-one situations, we are no match for them at all, and two-on-one is not at all. ”
"We all know what you said, don't you want you to talk about their weaknesses, what do you say about their strengths?" Afra sprayed Yaheng Baker a little impatiently, but she suddenly found that her own sister glanced at her, and in an instant, Afra understood her sister's thoughts, it seems that Rebecca really likes Berg Baker, and by the way, she does not allow others to bully her man's father, Aheng Baker.
"Yes, Afra Dafa Sage, I know what you mean, I want to say that in normal terrain, it is difficult to deal with centaur warriors, if you are on the water or in a swamp, the ability of centaur warriors to move quickly will be limited, and when they consume the ranged weapons in their hands, we will be able to destroy them from a distance. Yaheng Baker spoke his mind.
"You didn't mention that you were planning to melee with them, because they were also very strong in melee combat?" Zana, the master tactician, asked Ahyme Baker in a coquettish voice.
"Yes, centaurs are really strong, ordinary centaur warriors are equivalent to the strength level of mid-level fighters, it is not wise to be able to fight with our five warriors at close range without falling behind, and to fight them in close quarters. Yaheng Baker replied helplessly.
"Well, well, I see, can you tell me about the tactical characteristics of the centaur legion's operations?" After listening to Yaheng Baker's description of the individual strength of the centaur warriors, Wang Xu opened his mouth to ask the next question that he didn't understand.
"The centaur army is generally two thousand men in several rows to charge, with short crossbowmen throwing spears in the front row, ordinary archers in the middle, and strong longbowmen in the back row, all of them equipped with scimitars and have some ability to fight at close quarters," took a deep breath, and Yaheng Baker continued: " Under normal circumstances, they are accustomed to fighting in the same way that when they encounter heavy infantry, they will directly throw spears to attack, when they encounter crossbowmen, they will fight with longbows, and when they encounter cavalry, they will use speed to maneuver, and when they kill and injure their opponents to a certain extent, they will adopt the tactics of encirclement and warfare, slaughtering all opponents, and the dead corpses will also be mended, and no one will be left alive!"
"Oh, so to speak, the more than 10,000 centaur warriors outside Iris City should be five or six legions, it seems that there is no way to annihilate them at once, it will take five or six battles to kill them......" Wang Xu shook his head helplessly and sighed softly.
"Yes, it's a little troublesome......" Zana didn't come up with any good way, and accompanied Wang Xu with emotion.
"Okay," Wang Xu slapped the pine round table with a "snap ......", and after concentrating everyone's attention, he ordered: "We already know the strengths and weaknesses of the enemy, and if we want to kill them, we can only use the advantages of the terrain. ”
After giving instructions to everyone, just as everyone was looking at the map marked with red marks and looking for a suitable terrain, Wang Xu felt the breeze wrapped in the fragrance of pine trees around him, and in an instant, he asked in a low voice with an excited expression: "Has the wind here always blown from south to north...... )
