Chapter 862: Stone Skin Magic Circle
"Arc Charge." With a heavy wave of his hand, Prince Hubadai personally led the three 10,000-strong legions to rush up against the Earth Spirit Witch.
The second function of the light is to illuminate their path.
Although the three legions rushed out together, the charging speed was obviously different.
By the time we were halfway through the charge, it was extremely noticeable, taking on an arc, and the legion on the far left would be the first to collide with the Earth Spirit Witch.
They were clearly doing the same trick as they were going to attack the totemic body of the Earth Spirit Witch with the same trick they had done against the city of Moshtier.
Even the city defense locks of a city can't resist the frontal impact of their military formation, let alone the totemic body of a witch.
Even if you can hold one, you can't stand the second and third.
The plan was wonderful, but the Earth Spirit Witch was not an immovable dead thing like Morchtill, and she had far more means than the world could imagine.
Just when the distance between the two sides was still more than three hundred meters, the Earth Spirit Witch suddenly stopped her steps, raised her right foot high, stepped forward and shouted: "Earthquake shock wave!" ”
The terrifying earth element immediately centered on her right foot, and began to frantically inject and surge, and the earth with a conical sixty-degree angle in front of her was like a huge earth dragon turning over below, with a rumbling sound, the earth cracked, and the earth and stones flew sideways, reaching the extreme in this area of two to three hundred meters, and countless stone pillars with thick waists and limbs and nearly two meters high were spurted, and they stood there obliquely.
The sound of thumping was incessant.
The cavalry of the Golden Horde, which rushed to the front, turned out to be the safest, and the military spirit of the army formed a protective layer against them, which was enough to knock the Spike Stone Pillar into the air.
However, the inside of the military formation was relatively weak, and a large number of Golden Horde cavalry in the middle position were either directly flew, or even men and horses were directly pierced by stone thorns and hung there.
The cavalry of the Golden Horde who rushed to the front, although they carried the stone thorns, could not escape the cracked earth everywhere, either they fell directly into the crack with men and horses, or they were cut off by the horse's legs, and the whole person was thrown out.
The first Golden Horde army of 10,000 people, whose formation was seriously disrupted, began to loom in the army, and there were signs of collapse and disintegration.
This is the flaw of the military soul of the military array, the more complete they are, the stronger they are, if the casualties are too heavy, or the morale is too low, it is very likely that they will not even be able to display the military soul of the military array.
"Kill!"
As the second attack echelon, the legion, under the leadership of the commander, immediately adjusted the direction of the attack slightly, avoided the uneven earthquake zone, and rushed up close to the first legion.
"Keep up!" Under the leadership of those Tucan generals, the cavalry of the first legion, which had maintained an intact formation, immediately began to take the initiative to merge towards the second and third legions, and their military formations were automatically split into two and injected into the military souls of these two legions to strengthen their strength.
The reason why these military souls are called military formations is because they have no normalcy and are constantly changing with the changes in the military formation.
What the Tucan Golden Horde has learned is only scratching the surface, and it can only be used straight away.
It is said that those military tactics and strategists of the Xianglong Empire who are proficient in the use of formations, between talking and laughing, let the formations of their soldiers change in a thousand ways, exerting an effect similar to that of powerful spells, and even more, they can endow those soldiers with strength far beyond themselves, like divine help.
The distance of two or three hundred meters is an instant for the cavalry who charge with all their might.
Before the Earth Spirit Witch could launch a second large-scale group attack, the enhanced version of the military array military soul crashed into it with a bang.
The power of tens of thousands of people's minds gathered together, even the earth spirit witch was able to completely parry, even if she lowered her body and put on a posture to meet the impact, she was involuntarily swept back more than a dozen steps, so that the empty door was wide open.
By the time the second Tukan Army Formation Army Spirit collided with it, there was no way to take a parry posture again, and it was directly pierced by the Terror Spear, and the two collided together and exploded.
The terrifying elemental energy swept unscrupulously, not only blowing the totemic body of the Earth Spirit Witch to pieces, but also shocking and injuring countless Golden Horde cavalry who were too close.
After the Earth Spirit Witch who had recovered her body spurted several mouthfuls of blood, she flew directly above the Dreadnought cavalry as if nothing had happened, and quickly cast a spell again, "Stone Skin Magic Circle!" ”
With it as the center, an earthy yellow circle with a diameter of two hundred meters is highly concentrated.
Anyone who was in it, whether it was the berserkers or their totem mounts, had gained the effect of stone skin.
The recipient of this spell is like gaining a layer of invisible inert armor, which greatly increases the resistance to hammering, cutting, piercing, and slashing, and gains a damage reduction of 10/Adamantite (each time it is injured, it can absorb the first ten points of damage, but the effect on the Adamantite weapon is ineffective), and once the recipient reaches the caster's level *10 (up to 150) points, it will dissipate and collapse.
The protection provided by this spell is even far above the most sophisticated Far Eastern Light Armor, and it does not have any weight, it will not cause any impact on the caster's movements, there are no dead ends, and the only loophole is the Adamantite weapon.
It's just that the preciousness of the Adamantite weapon, there is no need to say more, let alone those Golden Horde cavalry, even those Tucan generals may not be able to have this kind of weapon.
With this spell, the dreadnought cavalry directly changed from an unarmored light cavalry to a heavy cavalry, and it had the capital to charge head-on.
The subtlety of this stone skin magic circle cast by the earth spirit witch is far beyond imagination, it is not only effective on those fearless cavalry who are in the magic circle, but also from the subsequent rush from the enveloping area of the magic circle, they will automatically obtain the stone skin effect.
Ordinary spells naturally cannot have this effect, this must be an exclusive legendary spell unique to the Earth Spirit Witch, which is a deep manipulation and application of the earth element.
Just like the Light of Destruction, a legendary spell that belongs to the Soul Witch, even if she is willing to share her legendary spell, it will be difficult for others to learn it, because it is based on her high level of elemental specialization, and the most basic conditions are difficult to meet.
"For the sake of the witches, kill them all."
The morale of the Dreadnought cavalry soared to the extreme, and in the howl of excitement, it slammed into the Golden Horde cavalry corps, which had not yet recovered from the shock wave of the collision explosion.
Although the Dreadnought cavalry only had 3,000 people, not even one-tenth of the Golden Horde cavalry, but in the process of colliding, it was devastating, and directly tore a huge hole in the Golden Horde cavalry, almost killing a counterpart.
Because these dreadnought cavalry are not riding ordinary war horses, but their own totemic spirits, and they are all extremely fierce and good at rushing and pounce, among which giant bears, tigers, and owl bears are the majority.
Their roar can make the Toucan's well-trained horses tremble in fear and frantically dodge, let alone hedge.
Not to mention, they also possess extraordinary life dice and good intelligence, and they cooperate seamlessly with the dreadnoughts who ride them, and the combat power that bursts out from one person and one rider is far greater than two.
"Block them, block them, we can't let them kill through our formation." Those Tucan generals urgently transferred troops to increase the thickness of the military formation.
Proficient in cavalry warfare, they were well aware of the consequences of their own military formations being killed.
The enemy will repeatedly detour, charge, and cut, and force the effect of annihilating and encircling a large number of enemies with a small number of troops.
Because this is the most commonly used tactic of their Golden Horde, most of the enemy does not have the means to deal with the soul of the army, once they are hit head-on, the middle will be empty in an instant, and the Golden Horde can take the opportunity to kill the opponent.
Now they're being pinned to the ground by the tactics they're best at, rubbing them all the time.
Soon the numerical superiority of the Golden Horde was revealed, and they could constantly mobilize their forces and replenish the thickness of their own military formations, so that the dreadnought cavalry that rushed into their military formations was like falling into a sticky glue, and they could never completely penetrate it, and finally fell into endless melee.
By the time the berserkers had followed, the other legions of the Golden Horde had regrouped and were ready to rush forward.
The war came to an abrupt end.
Because all the reinforcements on both sides have arrived.
Five Haslan witches came from Lesserman's side, and on the Tucan side, the Khan of Yamen himself came.
In this kind of large-scale mobilization of top-level forces, the other side will inevitably have to follow suit, otherwise it may cause a one-sided situation and cause a large number of casualties among its own ordinary personnel.
At this time, Yamen Khan was like a terrifying demon king, with terrifying blood waves churning all around him, as if he was about to swallow everything around him, and aggressively pressed towards the city of Moshantil, and said loudly: "Mingjin collects the troops and lets them go, otherwise I will go on a killing spree and slaughter your entire city." ”
The terrifying casualties of the Battle of Crossing the Lake had brought his killing power to an unprecedented height, and even the strength of several Haslan witches could not completely suppress him.
This is another reason why the Haslan Witches dare not continue to block the Tukan army at Lake Assen, which is the greatest help and the greatest shackle of Yamen Khan.
Once this army is completely defeated, he will no longer have any scruples, and with his ability, he can kill any city in any country of Faeron at will, and slaughter it with impunity.
In other words, the Tucan army could not be completely wiped out until a way was found to defeat the Yamen Khan once and for all.
After a brief exchange between the Haslan witches, the earth spirit witches decisively ordered: "Blow the horn of retreat, and the whole army will retreat to the city of Moshtier." ”
The city of Moshtyr was still in a broken state of defense, and it was difficult for them to stop the Yamen Khan.
Once he was allowed to storm the city of Moshtier and slaughter the entire city, he could not do it, he could at least make this devastated city suffer a new round of blows, and more than half of the population would have to be folded in.
In this process, he didn't even need to take action himself, he just needed to envelop the entire city with that overwhelming killing power.
A lot of the people there are going to go crazy and kill each other.
The Khan of Yamen did not take the opportunity to attack, but descended on the side of Prince Hubadai.
This elegant and delicate prince used a lot of perseverance to control his body and stop trembling, not to show the fear in his heart, and knelt down on one knee to plead guilty: "I believe the witch's slander, start the war lightly, cause a large number of elite casualties, and ask my father Khan to punish him." ”
Yamen Khan waved his hand and said: "Get up, although your Golden Horde has suffered a lot of damage, it is also meritorious, if you hadn't helped me contain and divert the enemy's attention here, the casualties on my side would have increased significantly." ”
"Thank you Father Khan for your kindness." Hubadai stood up respectfully.
"You are now leading the Golden Horde to retreat to the Endless Wilderness as fast as possible, and set up camp at least fifty kilometers away from the Sunrise Mountains." Yamen Khan issued a new order.
Prince Hubadai said in surprise: "In this way, wouldn't the two armies have to be completely isolated, and there is no way to support each other at all." ”
"From now on, our two armies will be separated by two factors, natural danger and man-made factors, and it is no longer possible to transfer troops through ordinary methods." "So, your real mission is to continue to work with those local witches to explore all the ruins of the Imasca in the Endless Wilderness, and to find their large portals, which usually have the role of mobilizing forces on a large scale.
Focus on the Lake of the Mist, which was once an important frontier city in Imaska, for a month, and if you don't find it, retreat in the direction of Wintercastle and continue your search while you build portals there with teleportation circles in case you need them. ”
The battle of crossing the lake made Yamen Khan finally realize that this expedition to the west was far more difficult than imagined, and he must be fully prepared for the retreat.
"I understand, this time I will definitely live up to my father's trust." Prince Hubadai instantly understood the true intentions of Yamen Khan.
If they can master the kind of ancient portal that can mobilize troops on a large scale, they will be able to attack, retreat and defend, and will give full play to their mobility, only a small number of elites are needed to achieve the purpose of the entire army pouring out, and they will no longer have to be burdened by the terrain.
But this kind of portal construction technology has long been lost.
The portal built through the Nine Rings Teleportation Circle with the Magic Constant Technique is a small portal at best, with a maximum of 100 troops deployed every day, and the total weight of the teleportation does not exceed 10 tons.
It's okay to send generals, don't think about transferring troops, and when the troops are gathered, the bones of the entire army will be cold.
Yamen Khan waved his hand and said: "Withdraw, from now on, you concentrate on doing this, no matter what I do in front of me, I don't need any support from you, if I have any accidents, you will immediately assume the position of the Great Khan, and lead the Golden Horde to retreat into the depths of the endless wilderness as quickly as possible, and within a hundred years, you must not mention the matter of revenge for me." ”
"Father Khan......" Prince Hubadai suddenly became anxious when he heard this, "a little frustrated, why did Father Khan say such frustrating words?" I believe that after my father Khan has passed this hurdle, he will be smooth sailing, and he will be invincible. ”
But there was a faint uneasiness in his heart, could it be that his father Khan felt something? actually said the same thing as explaining the aftermath.
Yamen Khan's blessing to his son could not be denied, but he asked rhetorically: "You have studied in the Xianglong Empire since you were a child, and your knowledge is far above that of your father Khan, what do you think is the biggest difference between our Tukan people and the Xianglong Empire and the kingdoms of Feiren?" ”
No matter how tyrannical he was in front of outsiders, in front of his only son, Yamen Khan could be counted among the ranks of loving fathers.
At least in Hubadai's memory, the other party has been doing his best to give him the best, not only from childhood to adulthood, receiving a lot of Tucan education, but also growing up at the expense of 100,000 cattle and sheep to send him to the Xianglong Empire to study.
After he returned, he did not hesitate to hand over the Golden Horde, which was originally the Great Khan's Guard, to him to lead, and transform it according to the method he learned from the Xianglong Empire.
This kind of licking of calves is very common in ordinary people, but it is very rare in the royal family with great power, Hu Badai, who has been in the Xianglong Empire, has seen with his own eyes, for the sake of power, how brothers cause trouble against Xiao Wall, how father and son draw swords against each other, and how mother and son calculate each other.
Therefore, this seems that the feelings of Yamen Khan are particularly precious, and Hubadai has always carefully cared for and cherished them.
This time, the taste of the test is unusually strong.
Hubadai thought for a moment before replying, "There are great differences in way of life and ways of governing, and our kingdoms, which are assembled for the purpose of plundering, are like cities piled up with sand.
If you maintain victory all the time, you can indeed pile higher and higher in a short period of time.
However, if you encounter a little setback and storm, you may collapse and become a thing of the past in an instant.
If we want to continue our rule for a long time, we must change our life and way of ruling to a certain extent, and establish our own real kingdoms and cities, even if most of the people are still mainly nomadic in the way, but the ruling class must be settled.
Let the people know where their kings are, where their kings are, and to whom they are allegiant. ”
"If there is only the mundane in this world, and there are no gods on the high, it is indeed feasible based on what you say." Yamen Khan first gave a certain approval to Hubadai's point of view, and then changed his words, "But this is a world where gods really exist, the Faren Continent has its own complete system of gods, and the Xianglong Empire is even more dominated by people, and people and gods are one.
And what do we Tukan people have? Immortality?
That's just an ethereal concept, have you ever seen the Immortal Heaven control us when we're in calamity? Pull us a hand when we're in a desperate situation?
If you only look at the mundane stage, in the end, you will find that you are just a fat sheep that fattens itself, and anyone can take a knife and cut a piece of meat on your body.
Do you understand what I mean? ”
Prince Hubadai said thoughtfully: "The main purpose of Father Khan's expedition to the west is not to plunder how much wealth? But for the Tukan people to forge their own true gods? (End of chapter)
