Chapter Ninety-Five: Centaur Archer!
"It's a centaur!"
Eric exclaimed in a low voice, the news that Huaxia had a centaur army, the Blue Shirts knew. In the previous battles of the expansion of the Huaxia Territory, this centaur force had made great achievements.
Although it is only a third-order, the role of the centaur archer on the battlefield is greater than that of many ordinary fourth-order troops.
However, according to the Blue Shirts' intelligence, the centaur unit is not in Kribby.
"That group of shit in the intelligence department, you can't even detect the enemy's forces!" Eric cursed, "Prepare for battle!"
Needless to say, the soldiers of the Blue Shirts were ready for battle.
Leslie, the leader of the centaur marksman, rushed to the front, and as he was about to enter the range, he ordered: "Stop, shoot, shoot!"
The centaur archers stopped, drew their bows and arrows, and a hundred arrows shot out of their hands towards the Blueshirts.
The centaur archer was extremely fast, and in an instant, he had already fired three arrows, which rained down from the top of the blue shirts.
"Giant shield, cover!"
Eric ordered.
The reason why Eric brought the Giant Shield Soldier with him is because according to intelligence, there are a hundred frost archers in Kribi Town.
The frost archers of the Huaxia Territory have long been famous on the battlefield, and of the 700 infantry led by Eric, 200 are giant shield soldiers, in order to deal with the frost archers of the Huaxia Territory. Now when you encounter a centaur shooter, it can come in handy.
"Retreat!"
After the centaur shooters fired three volleys, Leslie ordered, and the centaur shooters turned around and retreated in the direction they had come.
It came and went as fast as it came, and the centaur shooter disappeared from the blueshirts' sight in the blink of an eye.
Because of the presence of giant shield soldiers, the losses caused by the three rounds of shooting to the Blue Shirts were not large, and the casualties were only more than 30 people.
"Lord Eric, do you want to send cavalry in pursuit?" asked one of the commanders.
Eric shook his head: "No, be careful that there is an ambush." ”
When he attacked Huaxia Town before, he fell for Huaxia Ling's trick because he rashly led his troops to pursue, and was burned to death by Svein with a fire.
With the lessons learned before, Eric will not easily send troops to pursue the enemy again this time.
Thinking of this, Eric nodded proudly, he felt that his IQ had improved a lot, and Hua Xia Ling wanted to lure him into the bait, but he couldn't imagine it!
"Keep building a fire and cooking!" said Eric.
The soldiers of the Blue Shirts sat on the ground again, ready to rest, and before the soldiers of the Blue Shirts could fully relax, the sound of horses' hooves sounded again.
The Blueshirts, who had just been preparing to rest, had to tense up again and clench their weapons.
The centaur shooter reappeared, and after three volleys, he flew away.
Once, twice, three times......
The soldiers of the Blue Shirts felt like they were going crazy, and they wanted to grab this group of hateful centaur shooters and dismantle them immediately!
Eric is going crazy too, although the casualties caused by the centaur shooter are not large, but they are like a swarm of flies, disgusting!
Eric finally couldn't bear it anymore and waved his big hand: "Cavalry troops, catch up and entangle this hateful group of centaurs for me!"
"Others, follow me, I'm going to chop this group of centaurs into meat sauce today!"
At this time, Eric, where did he care about whether the enemy was ambushed.
The cavalry units of the Blue Shirts had already held their breath, and at this time, when they received the order, they rushed out one by one, aiming directly at the centaur shooters in front.
Leslie smiled lightly, finally couldn't help it?
"Retreat!"
Where do you need to bring this group of cavalry into an ambush circle? With only our centaur archers, we can wipe them all out!
The centaur archers and the blueshirts were like two whirlwinds, and they disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Eric did not worry that the cavalry brigade would catch up alone, and with the rest of the infantry, following the trail of the horses' hooves, followed.
In the dense forest where Svein was ambushed, the sound of horses' hooves sounded, and the soldiers who were ambushed in the dense forest were in high spirits.
"Boom, it's coming. Svein whispered.
The centaur archer was the first to appear in everyone's field of vision, and when he reached the edge of the dense forest, he continued to run into the distance without stopping.
Subsequently, the cavalry brigade of the Blue Shirts followed to the edge of the dense forest.
Svein looked at the centaur shooter in the distance, his eyes flashed, according to their original plan, the centaur shooter should have stopped at this time.
Then, Svein guessed Leslie's intentions and smiled.
"Hands-on?" Yasuo asked in a low voice.
The cavalry of the Blue Shirts was now close at hand, and if the frost archers who were lying in ambush in the dense forest suddenly attacked, it would definitely deal a devastating blow to this cavalry.
Svein shook his head: "This cavalry will be handed over to the centaur archers to deal with, and we will wait for the big fish behind." ”
After saying that, Svein let out a few sneers.
As he spoke, the cavalry brigade of the Blue Shirts had already run over from the edge of the dense forest, and even if they wanted to, it was too late to make a move.
Away from the forest, Leslie glanced back at the cavalry in pursuit behind him and smiled softly.
It's time to let these stupid cavalrymen know what a bad decision it was to pursue the centaur shooters. At the price, they had to pay with their lives!
"Cavalry troops behind the target, cavalry shooting!"
The running centaur archer twisted his upper body, drew his bow and arrows, and shot at the blueshirt cavalry behind.
Hundreds of sharp arrows were coming, and the cavalry of the Blue Shirts were rushing forward, colliding with the sharp arrows that were fired head-on, and there was no way to avoid them.
Several screams were heard, and more than a dozen cavalrymen who were running in front were hit by several arrows and fell heavily from their horses.
The cavalry behind had no time to stop, so they could only step over them, and the cavalrymen who fell to the ground were trampled by their companions' mounts with several arrows, and there was no chance of survival.
Before the other cavalry could panic, the second batch of arrows had already struck, and in an instant, more than a dozen horsemen fell.
"Stop moving, stop, turn back!"
The captain of the cavalry shouted in a hurry, and the surviving cavalry turned their horses and fled in the direction from which they came.
Keep chasing, and the centaur archers will fire a few more volleys, and they will probably be wiped out.
There are no cavalry archers in this world, so much so that these cavalrymen do not have the concept of "cavalry shooting" in their heads. Now under heavy fire from centaur shooters, these cavalrymen reacted.
Mounted archery couldn't be easier for centaur shooters.
"Want to run?" Leslie smiled lightly: "Chase, shoot them all, and leave no one behind!"
During the previous escape, Leslie had deliberately slowed down the centaurs, who were actually more than a step faster than the Blueshirts' cavalry.
Now the cavalry of the Blue Shirts want to escape, where can they escape?
The centaur archers followed behind the blue-shirted cavalry, firing incessantly, and from time to time the cavalrymen who were running behind were hit by arrows and fell off their horses, and were killed by the centaur archers who caught up with them.
Between the chase and the escape, there were less than fifty of the hundred blueshirt knights.
The cavalry captain's eyes were red, and he continued to run like this, only to be easily shot by the centaur archers following behind him. Instead of that, it's better to give it a go!
"Kill me back, we'll fight them!"
The cavalry captain burst out bloodily, and directly took the remaining cavalry to turn the horse's head and rush towards the centaur archer.
Just as the cavalry captain gave the order to turn the horse's head and fight desperately, the centaur archers also turned their bodies and began to run in the opposite direction.
Suddenly, it became a situation where the blue-shirted cavalry was chasing and the centaur shooters were on the run, and there was no difference from before. However, the sharp arrows in the hands of the centaur archers still shot mercilessly at the cavalry behind them.
If anything, it's a change in mentality. Although the cavalry of the Blue Shirts was chasing, they did not have the slightest calmness of the pursuers.
The cavalry of the Blue Shirts are desperate, they can't fight and can't fight, they can't escape and can't escape, how should this battle be fought?
On the other side, Eric led his infantry and followed the trail of the horse's hooves to the dense forest where Svein and others were ambushed.
Eric, who was in a hurry, did not notice that there was an army in ambush in the woods next to him.
In the dense forest, Svein's sharp eyes were fixed on the Blue Shirts passing by the dense forest, and when most of the Blue Shirts had passed, he waved his hand.
"Attack!"
