Chapter 28: The Kingdom Rerises (23/60)
On the high platform, Char noticed that the enemy was approaching the Pulen army in two groups, one in front and one behind. The pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info the front is obviously the vanguard corps, the number of people is smaller than that of the rear, and there is a faint tendency of splitting. In this way, it looks like on the basis of the original 3,000 people, and they want to split into a separate army to form the head of the vanguard corps.
The goal was to detect the frontal defenses of the Pulen Legion, but it was more than that. Judging from the faintly emerging line-up of the head troops, everyone carried knives and shields, and although they were melee troops, they had a faint defensive meaning against the archers. It's not a brilliant tactical trial, but in today's scarcity of troops, it's not bad that the Tides can think of using their numbers for a tactical advantage.
However, the Tides underestimated the strength of the Puron Royal City. The long-range legions of the Pulon King City, armed with the idea of a large bombing B with concentrated artillery fire in the future, although their firepower composition is still immature, is by no means something that ordinary legions can fill with human lives. Especially under the attack of the extremely terrifying and amazing burst of giant crossbows, unless you move the city fortress here, there is really no shield in this world that can defend it!
"Command to fire the giant crossbow phalanx, the target is 500 meters away, the enemy's first shield armor - three consecutive shots!" Char ordered.
The order was quickly passed on, and the herald stood on the second floor of the high platform with black and yellow flags in his hands, his hands swinging back and forth desperately. The signal flags, which represented "attack" and "triple fire", were seen by the herald of the repeating crossbow phalanx in the rear. And the black flag waved back and forth five times, which means that the attack distance is within 500 meters.
The crossbow troops, who received the signal, immediately began to adjust their angles. The Engineers filled the heightener under the muzzle to increase the height, and advanced the iron string two blocks forward to reduce the power output. After everything was ready, an engineering centurion shouted: "Everyone is ready! The number of bowstring grids is 2, the height is increased by 3.5, and the target is 500 meters and the three shots are shot!!"
The sound of a bowstring lattice loading is similar to that of a later firearm, and the all-metal ejection bay hides a trigger. However, this trigger is a bit heavy, and it requires a rope made of wire to pull back vigorously at the moment of firing, otherwise it will not be possible to open the iron stuck in the bowstring.
Thirty-six continuous-firing giant crossbows are ready to launch at this moment, and what is even more terrible is that in the first wave, they adopted the "seven-star continuous shooting" mode, which is the fastest and highest rate of fire of the continuous shooting giant crossbow and the most lethal mode.
"-Ready!Launch !!!"
"Launch!!"
"All-!! Launch"
Unprepared, the air around the firing phalanx suddenly emitted a burst of "bang!" The tremendous force and air flow generated by the impact of the terrifying kinetic energy at the moment of launch, coupled with the projectile distance of the iron arrow accelerating and sprinting to a height of tens of meters in an instant, all made the atmosphere around the phalanx tremble a little.
The ripples in the air visible to the naked eye are the short-term "wind breaking" phenomenon caused by the sprint speed and its own weight after the iron arrow breaks through the air. It's like a sonic boom when an airplane is flying at supersonic speeds, and although the former is not as perverted as the latter, the phenomenon of breaking wind is not uncommon in everyday life. For example, when a sports car is running at a high speed, it will form a "film" around the body due to the weather, which is the so-called air breaking film.
"Launched!!Prepare for a second shot!!" The so-called first and second times are the unique counting method of the Pulen King City, which is a batch of double and triple shots. One batch is equivalent to three salvos, and each of the three salvos is equivalent to two salvos. Therefore, the so-called Ichibanji here refers to the fact that the first shot has not yet been completed, and it can only be the turn of the second shot after the second shot is ready.
Under the order of the herald, the engineers shook the atmosphere that shook for a while because of the breaking of the sky, which caused dizziness and other effects on the head, but fortunately, the effect was not very deep and they could recover quickly.
However, at this time, the body platform that fired the repeater had already dragged a trail of nearly ten centimeters or so on the ground, and the powerful kinetic energy even made a slight sorrow on the iron body for a moment, which shows how terrible the piercing damage of the iron arrow shot by this guy will cause to the enemy.
It is not troublesome for the engineer to replace the arrows, he only needs to remove the cracked iron bolt from the fuselage and replace it with a new one. The loading of arrows is not difficult except for the heavy speed that will delay the speed, and the process of ascending to the Xuan relies on the gear effect to minimize the firing time and failure rate.
However, when it comes to the most troublesome in the process of changing arrows...... Sure enough, it's the propulsion of the fuselage. Because the body of the crossbow would retreat slightly with each shot, it would have to be pushed back again. But this big guy weighs hundreds of pounds, and two people have to push it forward together to get it back into place in an instant.
The Puron King City is currently studying how to install wooden wheels on these big guys, but due to time constraints, the first batch of repeating giant crossbows leaving the factory has no chance, and the reform can only be left on the heads of the second batch.
........................................................................
At the same time, the vanguard army of the Tides had approached four hundred meters in front of the Puron Legion, and they were indeed divided into two forces again as Char expected, the head army composed of shield armorers attacked the front of the Pulon King City, and the follow-up troops spread out in crane wings, gradually moving closer to the flanks on both sides.
The vanguard legion of the Tides intends to take advantage of their numerical superiority and the strength of the central army behind them in a vain attempt to surround the British legion in one go, and tear a hole in the attack from three sides for the follow-up army to follow. If they succeeded, Great Britain would be instantly put on the back burner, and even if they had any hidden forces behind them, they would have to go into battle immediately.
In terms of the rear army, Barian didn't expect Fries to be so decisive, and directly split the vanguard army into three and three assaults, although it seems to be nonsense, but there is a hidden chance of winning with one hit.
has been working with Fries for so long, and the two have already had a heart-to-heart relationship. As early as when the vanguard army was separated, Barian had once again ordered 2,000 troops to quickly support the rapid march of the two flanks of Fries, so that the vanguard force of Fries's army increased to 5,500 men, of which the main force of more than 1,000 people faced the long camp phalanx of the King of Pullen, and the remaining 4,000 men formed a crane wing to rush towards the defensive circle of the right army where the Knights of the Holy Song were located, and the defensive circle of the left army where the Knights of the Holy Spear were located.
"--Interesting. Char discovered the enemy's change of formation on the high platform, and he deeply saw that at the same time as the enemy's forward troops had just changed formation, the generals of the rear camp had already sent troops to respond. This shows that the two generals of the enemy should be quite cooperative and tacit, and they should not be underestimated.
However, in the end, it is still too naïve.
"Although the Wings Legion is a miscellaneous legion of Great Britain, it should not be able to break through in a short time with my guardian knight guard. But...... There is no need to make unnecessary sacrifices at such critical times. Char looked coldly at the army in the audience, and he said, "Beat the drums, the wind rises!
Drumming and winding is one of Char's "momentum cards", which is mainly aimed at inflicting amazing damage on the enemy, so as to achieve the effect of intimidating the enemy. When activated, the enemy can be stopped for one turn. (ps: Laugh, the Three Kingdoms Kill played too much with me.) )
Although the commentary is funny, the real effect is actually much greater than imagined.
Just as the Teders Legion was dividing into three ways to outflank and annihilate the Pulon Legion. Suddenly, there was a thunderous drum sound in the sky, and a roar like wind and thunder came from the mountain pack of A land 100 meters away, which entered the entire battlefield in an instant, and the momentum was extremely amazing!
Behind the A mountain bag, there are twenty skin drums, and nearly 100 drummers **** show their strong muscles on their upper bodies, they hold high the red-headed double sticks, and fight hard while sweating. The special hollow drum can make a great sound when it goes down, and the twenty drums are beaten at the same time, and the majestic momentum seems to make the earth tremble.
Boom knock, boom knock! The back of Mount A is like a thousand thunderbolts rushing, emitting an astonishing momentum.
The more than 2,000 logistical militia of the royal city of Prun, together with the 1st Regiment of Great Britain, formed a support regiment of about 4,000 men. They carried hundreds of flags and waved flags back and forth, and with the thunderous drums, they kept shouting "Kill, kill, kill!"
Under the entire clear sky, at this moment, the war drums of the Dao Pulen King City could be clearly heard in every corner, as well as the earth-shattering killing sound of more than 4,000 people shouting in unison!
"Order, the first front and the left and right flanks respond to the third and fourth lines behind them, and let the wind blow. Char ordered again.
The order was soon conveyed by the flag order.
The Knights of the Song and the Knights of the Holy Spear were now staring at the enemies they were facing, the number of enemies was more than double that of their side, and the legion on their side was still the army of Great Britain, far less elite and trained than the Prin legion. But there was no way, after all, it was the king's order, and even if he didn't want to mingle with these guys who were more hooligans than soldiers, he had to follow the king's order.
- The flag is red and sky blue, three circles...... Preemptive?"
The two knights, the Holy Lance and the Holy Song, grinned at the same time. I see, do you plan to use the momentum to deter the enemy and launch a counterattack at the same time? That's right, if it's just an ordinary preemptive order, then the military flag can be passed in three turns, but before that, a red color symbolizing the attack is added, which means combat readiness.
The two Guardian Knights understood the king's intentions at the same time, just as rumored to be. Only the Twelve Guardian Knights were able to instantly understand and react to King Pullen's thoughts, and only the Knights of the Moon were able to understand the King's thoughts and respond. Perhaps, there will be another King Arthur in the near future.
"Raise your sword!!!Let the wind roar!!" The Knights of the Songs, worthy of the name of the most fanatical of kings, her first reaction was to rush to the front of the procession, and then jump down and shout to all the soldiers.
"Raise your sword!!!" Under the order, the British soldiers, who had already been stunned by the amazing drum array, hurriedly reacted. They hurriedly raised their swords above the top, then slammed them with their shields at the orders of the Knights of the Songs.
Knock knock!
"Kill!"
The Pullen Legion took a neat step forward and shouted at the same time.
Knock knock!
"Kill!"
"Kill!"
"Kill!"
"Kill!!" the thousands of armies roared at the same time, accompanied by the clashing of swords and shields and the roar of drums. It was like a huge wave crashing head-on into the Tydes' legions.
However, it did not stop there, and the Pulen Legion simultaneously beat their shields and shouted for kill. They and the drums behind them sounded in unison, and the hundred flags fluttered together to form a false illusion. With the momentum of thousands of people, it has deduced a sky-shattering momentum that can only be achieved by galloping thousands of horses.
"Sure enough, there was an ambush!!" Barrian was shocked when he saw this scene, which and that momentum was almost the first time he had seen it in decades since he joined the army. He couldn't comprehend what it was like, but there was an indescribable force that prevented him from having the courage to move on.
- Ang woo!
- Ang woo!
The howl of the halted advance was transmitted to the vanguard legion of the Tydes.
In fact, it was not only him, but almost the entire Tydes regiment immediately stopped in a panic after Barrian's order was given. They were really frightened by the bluff of the Pulen Legion, and the drums behind the A location and the blinding method of the fluttering hundred flags made them mistakenly think that nearly 10,000 reinforcements had been killed behind the mountain, and for a time the entire legion fell into chaos.
"Defensive formations!" Friess roared loudly. While he ordered the whole army to line up for defense, he also withdrew the four thousand troops on both flanks and prepared to flank the attack to join his own own formation. To be honest, Char's plan not only fooled Barrian, but even veteran oils like Friese scared him.
After all, the momentum of the Pullen Legion was too terrifying, although the number was scarce, but the momentum that erupted from the solidarity in the rear at that moment was like a thousand miles of dark clouds covering the sky, with thousands of thunders rushing and thunder shining inside...... The most important thing is that the sound of the drum is in line with the general orders of later generations, full of passionate and bloody beats, and combined with the appearance of the Pulen army marching in the sound of killing, it is really terrifying.
Whew, the Tydes, who were still swooping down on the Pullen Legion like a tiger in the last second, quickly receded like a tide in the next second, and panicked out of a defensive formation on the spot.
They lined up in a circular defensive formation, three circles on the left and three circles on the right to protect Coach Fries in the center. Everyone was on standby, defending against the massive reinforcements that were about to attack in the next second of the King of Puren.
However, just as the Tydes were fully focused on the mountain bag at Spot A, they did not notice that a group of discordant black clusters appeared on the blue sky above them.
These black spots that spread all over the sky are one of the important parts of the world-famous "Pulon Arrow Rain Array" that King Pulen will rely on in the future, the red and black death canopy!
