1149 Ox Charge
readx;
For flying monsters, the air is their home turf, and at this point, even the Emperor of War can only bow to the upper hand, and soon after several masters were shot down, others had to give up this idea. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info Durrant's army quickly dispersed to reduce the damage caused by the air power to them, and in addition to that, they could only pray that the powerful firebomb would not be thrown on their heads.
It wasn't until all the firebombs were exhausted that the Elven Knights' air force left the place satisfied, but the nightmare of the Durrants had just begun. Soon the dust in the distance was raised, and the Shouyang army gathered heavily and rushed towards the Durrant army on the labor expedition.
In the last battle, the Dragon Soul Legion was the main force, but this time the field battle was replaced by the Orc Knights and the Earth Dragon Division.
Seeing the dust rising, Barkley hurriedly called for his troops to line up as soon as possible, ready to meet the approaching enemy army. One of the Earth Dragons was in the center, with three regular cavalry legions as the main force, and the other two legions as flanks on either side, while the mysterious army was placed in the rear, ready to reinforce at any time.
After Fang Ruitao's troops approached the Durrant army, they also began to line up in place, preparing for a decisive battle with the other party. Compared with the other party, the strength of the Shouyang army is much smaller, but their morale is strong and they are waiting for work, so they are not afraid of the other party's attack.
The troops that had been scattered to guard various important places had been replaced by local troops reinforced from within the territory, and this attack was all the main forces that Fang Ruitao could come up with. In the center, Fang Ruitao was naturally under his personal command, and he had the Earth Dragon Division under the command of Niss, which also included a Wulong Brigade composed of Lu Xinglong of the Karma Wolf Family.
In addition, there are troops of the Dragon Soul Legion and the Orc Knights. On their left flank were the 200,000 troops of the 1st and 2nd legions of the Shouyang Army commanded by Zhu Yunmei, while on the right flank were the two land demon beast divisions of the Elven Knights, led by Wu Chengfeng and Lucia.
Seeing that the opponent's various demonic beasts were strange, and their strength was even higher than that of the Earth Dragon Corps, Barkley was also secretly frightened, but at this time, he had no choice but not to fight, and this time he must win. Today, Barkley controls almost all the mobile forces of the Durrant Empire, and if this force is eliminated, the Durrant Empire will have nothing to do but watch it be wiped out by the other party.
"The whole army is attacking. Barkley had no way out, so he simply ordered all of them to attack, to fight an encounter with the other side, using his own strength advantage, and perhaps a chance of victory, while also avoiding the threat from the sky.
Fang Ruitao seemed to have been prepared for this, but he saw that in the army that had just formed a formation, all kinds of catapults and ballistas appeared one after another, and fired dense stone bullets and throwing spears at the Durrant army, knocking down one knight after another.
A large number of Zhuge crossbows were pushed to the front of the formation, and a dense rain of arrows was fired at the oncoming cavalry, blocking the opponent's approach, and soon the throwing spears of the Mo sword soldiers also joined the battle group. Fang Ruitao attached great importance to the army's firepower system, and under the attack of the Shouyang army's wave firepower, there was dense firepower coverage in all positions in the far, middle and near, which greatly increased the enemy's casualties.
Durrant's cavalry team, blood flowers loomed, many cavalry were killed on the spot before they could see the enemy, but the Durrant Empire is worthy of the first empire on the mainland, and these cavalry have a strong ability to tolerate casualties. Although many people were killed during the charge, no one was frightened by this, and the cavalry ranks did not even cause any confusion, they still held high their cavalry guns and rushed towards the frontal line of the Shouyang army.
The Durrant cavalry was getting closer and closer, and there was a sudden roar in the Shouyang army's position, and then the two ox tribe divisions of the Orc Knights came out of the formation, and they brandished the heavy double-edged axes in their hands and rushed towards the cavalry.
The Berun cavalry that had been attacked by the Ox people was almost completely wiped out, and although the few who escaped back described the strength of this force, not many people believed it, but this time more Durrant troops would feel its formidable power.
The impact of the Niu people is extremely strong, and in this regard, even the all-round cavalry troops under Yue Yun and the lion clan, which is known as the number one orc force, must bow to the upper hand. Under the leadership of the commander, rows of ox people dressed in heavy armor and brandished long-handled double-edged axes directly to meet them.
When the fragile cavalry spears collided with the heavy double-edged axes, the Durrant cavalry were surprised to find that their weapons were so vulnerable. And the strong physique and unparalleled strength of the Niu people can completely ignore the charge of the cavalry, and directly contain the impact speed of the Durrant cavalry, and they can only choose to fight with the Niu warriors on the spot, which will be a great loss.
Seeing that the Niu people successfully stopped the Durrant cavalry, the Lion Division and the Tiger Division also lost no time in rushing forward, slashing at the Durrant cavalry, and seeing that the opportunity could not be missed, the Wolf Cavalry Division and Yue Yun's cavalry division attacked from the two flanks of the Durrant army, like two steel knives deeply inserted into the ribs of its front, causing great confusion to the Durrants.
In this round of fierce battles, the Earth Dragon Corps of the Durrants did not dare to move, and they always stared at the Earth Dragon Division of the Shouyang Army opposite. The two sides were evenly matched, so neither dared to attack first and expose the flaws to the opponent. However, seeing that his cavalry charge was met with a stubborn counterattack, Barak had to choose to find a breakthrough from both flanks, and soon the other two legions also launched a cavalry charge.
Wu Chengfeng and Lucia on the right wing were unequivocal, they immediately led 40,000 Demon Beast Spirit Knights to rush forward, those at least third-order Demon Beasts were quite handy against Yun Ma, so even if their forces were much smaller than their opponents, they were able to suppress the other party.
Compared with the right wing, Zhu Yunmei on the left wing is slightly weaker. Although she had 200,000 horses in her hands, these people were all infantry, and they were somewhat passive in the face of the charge of 100,000 cavalry. In this direction, Diao Chan was assigned to help Zhu Yunmei, and she immediately deployed the troops of two divisions to form a huge glaive formation in front of this front to stop the cavalry onslaught.
The Glaive Formation's offensive and defensive formation really worked, although the infantry soon suffered a lot of casualties, they stubbornly resisted the impact of 100,000 cavalry, and those hoplites who stood at the forefront also gave great damage to the opponent.
Behind the Glaive Array, Zhu Yunmei commanded the main force to form a circular formation, protecting the archers and heavily armed wings with hoplites, giving the opponent a long-range dense blow to block the opponent's backup forces and giving the troops of the Glaive Array a chance to breathe.
