Chapter 48: The Battle of Wencheng (1)
Duns looked at the marching Harvey army in the distance, in front of him was the third army of Harvey's seventh legion, they attacked the left flank of the entire Harvey army, and it was also Zhao Wu in order to let the 300,000 city defense troops who had just joined behind have a safe condition, and the third army and the second army were distributed on the left and right sides, and marched in such a formation, and in order to avoid the recurrence of the incident of the fifth legion, he did not let a certain army act alone, but marched together, which ensured the safety of the entire legion, but also greatly limited the marching speed of the entire 800,000 peopleThe soldiers behind have not yet begun to move, and the movement of the entire army on the plain has also caused that there is no longer a place on the entire plain that is not a road, in other words, in the next three years, there will be no more crops here. The dense army slowly moved forward like ants. Stupid, that's what Duns said about this legion at first glance.
"There's really nowhere to put it!" said a general next to Duns, his name is Sun Hong, he is Duns's deputy, and the two have been together since the establishment of this snow wolf mercenary army, and they have always been a good partner.
"Hehe, it's not that there is nowhere to put it, but everywhere you can say it. Duns said that this situation has different judgments for different people, and for Duns, the current Harvey Seventh Army is like a fat man, moving slowly and quietly, which is their biggest weakness.
"Be careful, the Sky Demon Rider is watching over us?" Sun Hong said from the side.
"Haha, this thing has a bird's use, but it's just for decoration. "I have to say that Duns is a bold and careful guy, although it seems rude, but in fact he is like a human spirit. Where is the time when he suffers? A magician next to him was using magic to observe the movement of the Harvey Army's march, there were too many Harvey soldiers moving forward, and when they saw a snow wolf mercenary army watching from one side, the third army on the flank all stopped, to see what the snow wolf mercenary army was playing, but they were disappointed, Dunce just let the entire second column stop here to confront the Harvey army, and did almost nothing, but even this annoyed the commander of the Harvey Third Army, and wanted to attack to drive them away. They rode snow wolves again, and the speed was too fast, and if they didn't drive them away, it would be annoying to look at them, and they might come to the other party at some point. One bite is enough for them to hurt for a while.
So the two armies confronted each other silently. It went on for two hours.
"Old Deng. You've been watching them like this for two hours, and you're not tired?" Sun Hong said.
"Hehe, what's so tired, we're herding sheep, have you seen which sheep herder will be tired when he looks at the big fat sheep, he should be excited. I know no, I'm excited!" Duns looked at the Third Army as if he had seen a sheep, his eyes wide open, and he wanted to drool when he looked at it. He is the only one who has this feeling. The other mercenaries had already grown tired of it, and began to discuss something in a whisper.
"I really don't know that you still have such a bad taste, I'll stay away from you, otherwise I'll treat me as a sheep later, where can I be reasonable?" Sun Hong said angrily, and took two steps to the side of the snow wolf.
"How is it possible, your black thing is disgusting to look at, where is the taste?" Dunce did not let go of this opportunity to hit his friend.
"Come on, where are you whiter than me? Sun Hong said on the side.
If there is anyone who has the greatest courage among the mercenary army, it must be Duns, if it weren't for the usual Kong Ming being restrained there, he dared to fight like this against three people alone, and this time he was very interested in Kong Ming's weasel theory, and decided to give it a try, the success of this tactic, so after Kong Ming appointed him as the second-level commander, he couldn't wait to take 50,000 demon cavalry to the left side of the march of the Harvey army, looking for trouble with the Harvey army. By now it seemed that his purpose had been achieved, and in any case, he was standing here, and the entire Third Army had stood there and saluted them for a long time. And it also really held the entire Third Army. This made Zhao Wu also annoyed for a long time, if he sent troops out to attack this snow wolf mercenary army, he couldn't outrun them, and they stood there, it was also a threat to the entire legion. So the hot potato was thrown to the Third Army, and the other armies continued to advance.
Another hour passed, and Duns smiled, and told the entire Second Column to slowly retreat until it disappeared from view of those of the Third Army who were standing on the ground. This scene made all the people in the Third Army involuntarily breathe a sigh of relief, and even many Harvey soldiers sat down directly, opened a piece of food from the space ring and ate it directly, and those grassroots officers did not restrain their subordinates anymore, and some of them chatted while eating. Even the commander of the Third Army breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that although the other party was just standing there, the pressure was real, and at this time, the scene of the nightmare of the Third Army came. I saw that the whole earth began to shake, and the retreating snow wolf mercenary army came back, and directly impacted. All the soldiers of the Third Army jumped up from the ground like frightened rabbits at once, and pointed their weapons in the direction of the enemy's attack. Watching the Snow Wolf Mercenary Army attack, all the soldiers of the Third Army were nervously watching the line coming, raising a low dust in the direction, a feeling of excitement and fear unconsciously surged into their hearts, especially those Harvey soldiers in front, this feeling was even more obvious, because they were the first line, when they looked at the distant attack, they did not notice that there would be a feeling of fatigue in everyone's muscles, which was a sign that the fatigue after standing for a long time did not recover, these small details may not be noticed, but they will make a person fall into a passive situation in the battle, just like a person who has lost his strength, Ten points of strength may only be able to use less than three points of strength, especially the lower the level of the person feels, the more obvious it feels, if it is an ordinary person, he may not resist directly, let others slaughter, but for those above the fifth level, these have little impact on them. But even so, it will make them a little inferior when facing competitors in the same class. But after all, the Third Army is mainly composed of third-level swordsmen, so these people can only use less than six or seven points of strength out of ten, what kind of phenomenon will this be?
Although it is said that the Second Column is an army of 50,000 people, but if they cooperate with 50,000 snow wolves, it is actually equivalent to an army of 100,000, plus the cooperation of 5,000 magicians, it can be said that on the whole, their combat effectiveness is on par with Harvey's third army, and now Duns actually has to remember even three or four points of the strength of this third-level swordsman. For the mercenary army. These hours of standing are also more tiring, but they sit on top of the snow wolf, which is just a little sore in the butt, and their mount, the snow wolf, is known for its endurance, and the snow wolf can completely trot for days and nights without food just to find something to eat. Not to mention just standing there for a few hours, anyway. The losses of the Snow Wolf Mercenary Army's non-combat forces were much lower than those of Harvey's Third Army. The details that precede such a battle can sometimes make the difference between winning and losing a battle. Because they have another name for the art of war - to work at ease. In other words, if a person with a whole body of energy fights a guy who is tired and half dead, who will win under normal circumstances?
The Snow Wolf Mercenary Army did not disappoint the Third Army, they rushed over directly, and when they were still more than a hundred meters away from the Third Army, countless magic attacks rushed directly to the front line of the Third Army. Then there was the snow wolf's wind blade, and then there was the fighting spirit slash, and then when the three were over, the entire snow wolf mercenary army had already rushed into the position of the third army. The two armies began a head-on fight. This is a typical three-stage attack of the Snow Wolf Mercenary Army, and it is also to give the enemy the greatest force in the first attack, so as to facilitate the more smooth attacks in the later attacks, because the greater the effect of the first strike, the stricter the enemy's losses, the more smooth the subsequent battles, on the contrary, once the first battle is frustrated, then the subsequent battles will require more effort and may not be able to make up for it. At the moment when the two armies fought, a large number of Harvey soldiers in front had already fallen, because the Third Army had no experience in fighting with the Snow Wolf Mercenary Army, although the methods used by the Snow Wolf Mercenary Army were also explained, but when they did not face it, how many people took it to heart? When they really faced the attack of the Snow Wolf Mercenary Army, they really understood the benefits of this tactic.
The battle between the two armies was heated in an instant, and what the Third Army did not expect was that the main direction of the attack of the Second Column was not their military headquarters, but their team of magicians. The mages of the Snow Wolf Mercenary Army seem to be assigned to various places, and only in this way can the effect of a three-stage attack be formed, but Duns has already hidden the main force of those mages on the side of the attack, as long as he is close to the enemy's mage team, then the magic attack will definitely be fully displayed. Sure enough, at the moment of contact between the two armies, the magicians of the Harvey Army began to move, and pieces of magic directly covered the position where the two armies were handed over, these magic not only attacked the snow wolf mercenaries, but also a large number of Harvey soldiers, I saw that in this junction place, many people were opening the fighting qi cover to the maximum, struggling to resist the attack of magic, but because the superposition of magic attacks was too much, in this area, whether it was the mercenary army or the Harvey soldiers, the people dissipated into pieces of flying ash, looking at the place covered by magic, Harvey's two thousand magicians couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, Most of them are among the magicians of the Seventh Legion, and a few of them are called from the city defense army, in order to deal with the magicians of the Snow Wolf Mercenary Army, and now the first attack has such an effect that they can't help but feel a little proud, although many of the people they attacked are Harvey's soldiers, but this can't hide their credit. Just when they were a little proud, there was a chaotic sound of snow wolf hooves in the midst of the magic effect that was about to dissipate, what the hell was going on? All the magicians stared at the smoke and couldn't help but wonder. But soon they had no way to be happy, because the same large amount of magic suddenly fell from the sky, directly covering the heads of all the magicians that Harvey had allocated to the Third Army, and the strength was not ordinary, many of them were seventh-level magic, and the desperate eyes instantly filled their eyes, and then they couldn't see anything anymore, and more than two thousand Harvey magicians disappeared like this.
When the commander of the Third Army saw the scene of the magician phalanx flying everywhere and the sky falling, he knew that this magician group was finished, and these were the soldiers' instincts. Because the magic wave there is too strict, I can't imagine that the enemy is so cunning, called attacking the third army, but in fact, it is against those magicians of the magician group.
As a magician, he can be said to be a relatively good person, as a member of the Huayuan Empire, he could have lived very well in more fields and places, but once, a friend found him and said that he had more opportunities in the Land of Chaos, and that his promotion level would be faster. When he heard this, he didn't care at first, but then he saw that many of his companions had joined the team to go to the Land of Chaos, so he followed the trend and came to the Land of Chaos. When they arrived, they found out that they had all joined the Snow Wolf Mercenary Army. The commander of this mercenary army was a baron of the Huayuan Empire, and he seemed to feel a little relieved when he saw this person. After all, they are all from the Huayuan Empire. And now he was even more relieved, because their mercenary army's winning record and their own magic power were becoming more and more refined. What pleased him even more was the speed and skill with which he cast his magic. It's a world different from before, and this qiē is forced by the pressure of survival. This time, as a member of the magic attack, he was not assigned as a member of the support swordsman like other magician mercenaries, but put on the swordsman's clothes and hid among the many swordsmen, and in order to reduce the number of wounded, they had prepared several magic protection scrolls in advance, which was a trigger-type protection scroll. As soon as the enemy attacks them, these will automatically expand, this is a very practical and necessary scroll, usually the mage will carry a few with him, for this mission they also gave the swordsman in front of each of them two. When the battle began. They rushed towards the Harvey Army like any other mercenary army, except for a few swordsmen in front of them, behind the swordsmen were more magicians in magic robes, about two thousand people. Lian Hao saw that the swordsman in front of him had just fought with the Harvey Army, and he saw countless magic falling from the sky, and even some of their magicians rushed a little faster, and they were also attracted by countless magic tricks. So the unforgettable scene appeared, those swordsmen's magic protection scrolls were opened, and in order to be insured, all of them opened the fighting qi shield to the maximum, but these were useless, because the magic was too intensive, the same mercenary would be attacked by five or even a dozen magic attacks, Harvey's magician's attack density was too high, and the two magic protection scrolls plus the swordsman's own fighting qi cover had no way to prevent these attacks, and the third-level swordsman with the snow wolf couldn't resist a few times and died directly, while the higher-level ones resisted for a longer time, but except for a few strong people at the level of the great swordsman, the others were wiped out。 However, they couldn't stop, this opportunity was created by those dead mercenaries, the only chance to destroy the enemy's magician group, so many magicians opened all the magic covers, stimulated all the magic scrolls, and rushed over with the magic in the sky. The enemy's magic effect covered the magicians who came to the impact, and the sound of those magic also covered the sound of the snow wolf's hooves, there was no choice for the serial number, he was also a member of the rush ahead, fortunately, his preparation in advance was not useless, when he rode the snow wolf out of the magic attack area, there was only a little magic protection left around him, but he finally survived, and then in the stunned eyes of those Harvey magicians, he did not hesitate to tear open several six or seven level magic scrolls on his body, and directly covered the magic to those enemy magicians。 Lian Hao looked at those stunned Harvey magicians, watched the magic fall from the sky, and then the protective magic scrolls on these magicians opened one after another, withstanding waves of magic attacks, but this was just the beginning, and then one by one the Harvey magicians who disappeared from the protective magic also disappeared in the magic attack, starting from those low-level magicians, then middle-level magicians, and then high-level magicians, but there were always a few magicians who did not die, and from the perspective of their magical protection, there was still sufficient magical protection。 However, these independent people apparently angered the mages of the Snow Wolf Mercenaries, so more single attack magic attacks came with high intensity. In the panicked eyes of these high-level magicians, the magic shield was worn off in pieces, and then disappeared, followed by more than 2,000 magicians of Harvey's Third Army, so in this local battle, Duns exchanged the sacrifice of a group of swordsmen for the death of more than 2,000 magicians, from the arithmetic point of view, he is a winner, but from the other side, this is not necessarily a kind of helplessness, this is war.
This momentary victory did not make Duns happy, because the enemy of the other armies behind the Third Army had already pressed in, and if it was too late to retreat, then the whole column would be surrounded by Harvey's army, and if such a thing happened, then all of them would die. Obviously, the third army in front of you is the bait of the Harvey army, once the bait is eaten, then the whole column is over, the Harvey army at the beginning, afraid of the enemy, ignoring it is all fake, it can be seen from the magic mirror, on both sides of the third army there are already two cavalry running quickly from the chaotic marching road. And Duns also saw a different team, that team only had more than a thousand people, but their armor was the brightest in the entire Seventh Legion, and the magic robes were also the best, this was the Seventh Legion's Earth Guard.
"It's brother's, those hanging things have even been used by the Blood Guards, and they look up to me Duns too much. Order the column, withdraw!"
The sound of retreat came from behind, and the mercenaries in front of them who were killing well spat on their mouths.
"Hemp, what a broken order, this kind of thing happens when you're happy, brothers, withdraw!"
"Withdraw!"
"Withdraw!"
"Withdraw!"
"Withdraw!"
There was no hesitation, only scolding, all the mercenaries suddenly cut out one by one when they heard the order, and then turned around and retreated directly, all the teams were not formed into a team, so they naturally and quickly withdrew, and those officers continued to recruit their subordinates in the process of movement, so they naturally became a small column, running towards the distance.
Looking at the disappeared mercenary army, all the Harvey soldiers were stupid, what kind of army is this, it will come in a while, fight for a while, and it will not be twenty minutes in total, so it will be withdrawn without a trace, what the hell is going on?
The commander of the Third Army looked at the disappeared Snow Wolf Demon Cavalry, and spat out a mouthful, "Damn, how can these people come and go, and when they say they can leave, are our Third Army vegetarians? What a remorse!"
Half an hour later, a staff officer walked up to the three army commanders with an ugly face and said, "Report to the army commander, the battle losses of this battle have been counted." ”
"Read!"
"This time, more than 2,000 enemies were annihilated, and our army died, 15,000 people, including more than 2,300 people from the magician regiment. The staff officer read the back almost inaudiblely, because he knew what the number meant to the commander.
"It's numb, less than twenty minutes, fifteen thousand people, damn it, are they immortals!" the three military commanders scolded loudly, and then kept scolding there, so that no one below dared to touch his moldy head. You must know that the status of magicians in the war is extremely high, because their face killing has amazing lethality for low-level soldiers, especially after a thousand magicians, it is simply a terrifying nuclear weapon, this time the loss of the entire army of magicians, how can he explain to Zhao Wu? In order to strengthen the combat effectiveness of the army, Zhao Wu dismantled the entire magician division, half of the legion was commanded, and half was divided into the various armies below, saving the role of the magician being wasted, but now that the magicians of the third army are all gone, how will this battle be fought in the future......?
