Use the longbow for projectiles. Basically, the hit rate of a single feathered arrow is not considered, and the greatest lethality of a longbow projectile is the arrow that falls rapidly from the sky, and countless such arrows are enough to block the sun, forming a dark rain of arrows on the battlefield for a short time.

In order to launch the fire arrows, the Clay archers were lit in front of the flames, and this light was the best sign in the dark night, under the command of Colin, the overwhelming rain of arrows stopped roaring, harvesting the lives of the Clay archers. This kind of projectile long arrow can even penetrate ordinary chain mail, not to mention those Clay warriors who are not even fully protected by leather armor, but in just a few volleys, 3,000 Clay archers who fired fire arrows were killed and wounded, and Colin pointed at the Clay riders who were lying in ambush on both sides.

These Clay warriors were originally expeditionary warriors who were ambushed and prepared to sneak attack out of the camp to fight, but unfortunately, under the detection of Androkos's "magic eye", their general location was also clearly displayed, and Colin naturally would not let them go. Although these warriors were a little far from the expeditionary camp, they were not yet beyond the maximum range of the longbow archers.

After 20 rounds of shooting, Colin's longbowmen finished shooting the feathered arrows of a quiver, and under the command of the captain, they quickly retreated the whole group, and at the same time began to change the quiver behind their backs, ready to continue the battle. However, news from Androkos soon spread throughout the camp, and the night raid of the Clay army retreated.

After losing more than 10,000 men, the commander of the Clay tribe, Semir, gave the order to retreat in a frustrated tone, and tonight he brought 25,000 warriors, but here he lost nearly half of his troops, and the result of his battle was to burn down only a small part of the camp of the Imperial Capital Expeditionary Force.

In Saimir's view, the expeditionary force has been silent before, I am afraid that it is secretly mobilizing the army for defense, maybe he will achieve the desired result by launching a full-scale attack desperately at the beginning, but in any case, there is no "if" on the battlefield, and if you lose, you will lose, and Saimir can only choose to retreat.

Tonight's battle with the Imperial Capital Expeditionary Force made Saimir's heart very worried, not only because he lost, but also worried about the quality of the expeditionary force, in the face of the night attack and not chaotic, even when the soldiers of the brigade were mobilized in the camp, they did not let the scouts sent by him find out, such a soldier is probably enough to withstand the most elite troops of the Clay tribe, but even the White Frost Legion of Kairim is only 10,000 people, and now the Clay tribe has to face almost 60,000 to 80,000 such soldiers.

Although Saimir's night attack ended in a fiasco, he also got a lot of important information, except that the expeditionary soldiers were quite elite, that is, this time the expeditionary force in the imperial capital was well prepared, their baggage camp was full of supplies, and at least 20,000 war horses were brought with them, and the summer prairie was full of green grass, which could be completely eaten by these war horses.

In this way, as long as the expeditionary force of the imperial capital advances along the water source, it will not worry about the supply problem at all, and the tactics of clearing the field with strong walls formulated by Saimir before may not have much effect, but will greatly deplete their own strength, perhaps the plan for the present is to meet Chief Abdul immediately, fully convene the army of the Klee tribe, and conduct a decisive battle with the main force of the expeditionary force of the imperial capital, otherwise when this huge army goes all the way to the west, all the grasslands of the Klee tribe along the way will be destroyed, and the loss will be difficult to make up.

When the Clay night attack army retreated, Ryan and Orlando also walked down from the lookout side by side, tonight's battle, the expeditionary force to the limit of the word "tolerance", and it is precisely in this way that lured the Clay army to approach step by step, but was annihilated by the expeditionary force with bows and arrows, and the expeditionary force paid only a little tent and other materials were burned, and hundreds of people have been lost, this is definitely a brilliant victory.

Ryan had fought more than once in wars, and there were many battles between the two sides with more than 100,000 people, but this was the first time he was silently watching what was happening on the battlefield as a spectator, which also gave him a lot of inspiration: the easiest way to win a battle is to make the enemy make mistakes. If it weren't for the expeditionary force's gradual retreat, how could the commander of the Clay tribe slowly fall into the trap? Although this was only a very simple tactic, it achieved quite desirable results.

Of course, to be able to cause such a result, the most important thing is the combat effectiveness of the Jonas Legion, in the past few years under the training of Colin and Thomas, these shooters have surpassed the combat effectiveness of those shooters in the Thor Fortress, they can pull the longbow 20 times in a row at a very fast speed, which will form a rain of arrows, so that the enemies in the area being shot have no time to escape, and these shooters still have enough spare strength to continue the battle after changing the quiver, even if the Clay Clan is desperate for a full-scale attack, the Jonas Legion is enough to deal with it。

"Strong enough strength, with flexible and skillful use, hit the enemy's vital point!" Ryan walked back side by side with Orlando, while constantly thinking in his heart about what his teacher Galib had said, tonight's battle seemed to explain this sentence to Ryan very well, and he gained a lot.

After returning to his tent, Ryan did not feel sleepy, but sat on the felt and slowly recalled every scene he saw tonight, silently thinking about what kind of actions he would make if he were a different person, how to attract the enemy more skillfully, how to deal with it if he accidentally entered the enemy's trap, how to make the most of his combat effectiveness, and how to hit the enemy more effectively......

At dawn, Ryan walked out of his tent with confidence on his face, and after a night of thinking, Ryan felt that he had learned a lot. In the past, Ryan always took the lead in battle, which is true, but it also limited Ryan's vision to the battle in front of him, and last night's encounter made Ryan jump out of the battle and see the reactions of both sides in a comprehensive way, which seemed to Ryan stepping into a new world.

According to the custom, Ryan came to Orlando's military tent to enjoy his breakfast, and at the same time would have a brief exchange with Orlando, and Orlando nodded secretly in his heart when he saw Ryan's confident look, obviously his act of inviting Ryan to watch the battle last night gave Ryan enough inspiration.

"How's the battle?" Ryan asked with a relaxed expression as he took his breakfast.

Orlando replied while eating his breakfast: "Rough estimate, more than 10,000 enemies were killed last night, Jonas is still arranging for people to clean up the battlefield, it's summer, and the corpses must be buried deeply, otherwise it is easy to spread the disease." ”

Ryan nodded, he was not surprised by this ending, in fact, Ryan had already thought of the idea of sending the Royal Knights to copy the enemy's back route in his thoughts last night, coupled with his magic, Ryan was confident that all the enemies who came to attack would be annihilated, but in that case, his strength would be fully exposed, which would be detrimental to the future war.
