Chapter 16 Another Branch

When the two armies meet, the brave wins.

Three miles away, the Blue Enchantress Cavalry charged, with Arthur, Huey, and Joan at the forefront of the cavalry, like a spear thorn into the infantry regiment ahead.

The deputy commander of the Koleu Division of the Third Army of the Norman Kingdom squinted at the cavalry galloping in front of him, and the corners of his mouth curled up to show a disdainful smile.

In recent months, the Norman army has followed the Sea Clan army all the way to attack the city, and the successive victories have inflated the confidence of the Norman army, and it has long been out of the eyes of the Holo and Isaac armies, which were originally ranked first and second among the Terrans. Even if the opponent is cavalry, his 3,000 heavy infantry has already lined up in a defensive formation, and the enemy can't fly even if he flies.

There were still five hundred meters away, and the heavy infantry in the front row had already erected a huge shield, and the two warriors supported a huge shield with their shoulders, and even the charging cavalry could not break through it. Each platoon of heavy infantry was followed by a platoon of pikemen, spears more than three meters long between shields, waiting for the cavalry to stab out at the moment when they collided.

There were still two hundred meters away, and with an order, the archers in the rear fired a salvo of thousands of arrows, and the arrows that covered the sky and the sun were thrown over the heads of the cavalry.

The Blue Enchantress cavalry charged at no reduced speed, but raised the light shield on the side of the horse above their heads. At the same time, a large whirlwind flew from the cavalry formation, a spinning water wheel, and countless flying fallen leaves took the initiative to meet the falling arrows, which was the magician among the mercenaries.

After the stirring of the whirlwind, the blocking of the water wheel and the interference of the flying leaves, the originally dense arrows have become sparse and weak, and they can no longer cause much damage when they fall on the cavalry raising their shields, and they are rarely shot on mercenaries and mounts.

One hundred and fifty meters, the Norman archers threw a second round of sharp arrows, and the damage in this round was slightly stronger than the previous round, and several cavalry fell off their horses.

One hundred meters, the archer's shooting has changed from a projectile to a direct shot, and has entered the most powerful range of the bow and arrow, that is, the third-level martial artist will be seriously injured if he is shot head-on by an arrow.

The blue enchantress lowered its body and moved its shield from the top of its head to the head of the wildebeest, and the cavalry at the front of the line unleashed their fighting spirits to attack.

The blue demon queen rushed to the front rows of all the warriors and the strongest battle captain mercenaries, and at the same time, the fighting qi that came out of her body formed a wall of fighting qi, unless the sharp arrows that wrapped the fighting qi could not penetrate this invisible wall of fighting qi at all. Occasionally, captain-level archers shot sharp arrows wrapped in fighting spirit and shot at the front row of cavalry, and the rare armor blocked the attack for them.

Fifty meters, the archer's last round of attack, is also the most powerful.

Koleu was already sweating slightly, the cavalry in front of him was too strong! The three rounds of archer salvos only caused single-digit casualties to the opponent, and if it was an ordinary Terran light cavalry unit, it should have suffered one or two hundred casualties in front of the formation.

Flying locusts rained down, and sharp arrows with strong winds shot densely at the cavalry in the front row. With such a dense burst of sharp arrows, even the warriors of the war captains had to be shot into a sieve. But in front of the sharp arrows, there was a sudden appearance of whip shadows in the sky, these whip shadows were layered on top of each other, if illusory, none of the sharp arrows could penetrate the whip shadow, and the broken brushes fell to the ground.

Koleu cold sweat flowed down completely!

The next moment should be a head-on collision between the cavalry and hoplites, and the most tragic hand-to-hand combat is about to be staged, and the victory or defeat of the war depends on whether the infantry can withstand the cavalry charge head-on.

Twenty meters, the expected collision did not occur, and from the front of the blue enchantress cavalry, four roaring huge fire dragons flew out side by side, and the four dragons came out in unison, and the flames covered the cross-section of the infantry phalanx nearly twenty meters wide.

No matter how strong the shield and flesh and blood were, they couldn't stop the devouring of the seventh-level fire dragon, and the fire dragon left a large number of charred corpses everywhere, and there was also a commotion in the military formations on both sides and behind to avoid the scorching flames.

After Arthur and Joan's dragon spells, the cavalry vanguard, with Huey as the arrow, had already entered the infantry phalanx. Brilliant golden light burst out from Huey's golden spear, countless sharp spear blades were shot, and the fighting spirit technique "Bullet Rain" stabbed down the large number of Norman warriors in front.

The war schools and captains after Huey unleashed a wide range of fighting spirits, and the fighting spirit exploded, blood splattered, stumps and broken arms were all over the ground, and large swaths of the Norman infantry fell.

Unleash the strongest attack when she comes up, and the blue enchantress's tactics are to completely stun the enemy and disrupt the enemy's formation with a thunderous blow.

The Norman infantry regiment's military formation was already in disarray, and the first round of attacks by Arthur and other vanguard troops penetrated fifty or sixty meters into the opponent's formation, and Koleu, the deputy division commander of the Chinese army, was more than ten meters away. Arthur followed up with a "Burst of Flame Slash", and cut a passage more than ten meters long from the military formation.

Huey's eyes instantly turned blood-red, and he pounced along the passage Arthur had slashed out.

Perhaps he was suppressed by the previous series of thunderous attacks, or perhaps he was frightened by the mad Huey, Koleu's first choice was to turn around and run.

As soon as the commander of the Chinese army fled, there was no suspense in this battle. The blue enchantress cavalry that then rushed up easily cut through the entire infantry phalanx, and then turned around and charged again. They slashed and slaughtered in the Norman army, and sprinkled all the anger of the Norman soldiers who had been hunted down for days.

The morale of the Norman army has been lost, the formation has been crossed, and the individual combat strength is a big gap with the mercenaries, and only the fate of being shocked and slaughtered is left, and they only hold on for a moment and then scatter.

Arthur stopped the mercenaries from continuing the pursuit, and there was no point in killing these remnants of the Terrans.

Although the victory in this battle still did not get rid of the situation of still being pursued by the Sea Clan army, it greatly boosted the morale of his soldiers and allowed them to continue fighting.

Arthur only gave the mercenary group half a day to clean up the battlefield and heal his wounds, and after half a day, he continued to transfer.

Cleaning the gap in the battlefield, Joan took the initiative to find Arthur, "We must find a way, if we keep escaping like this, sooner or later we will be blocked by the Sea Clan army." If the Sea Clan army is intercepted today, even if it wins, it will be a miserable victory. ”

Arthur held his chin and muttered, "You should really take the risk of making a change. ”

Before the two could discuss the final result, the magic token under Arthur's waist rang again.

"Which fortress did you order us to fight this time?" asked Joan playfully.

Arthur glanced at the magic token hurriedly, "This time it's for us to save people." ”

"Who to save?

"Yanghui Forest, save the remnants of Locke who are surrounded by the Sea Clan army. ”

Joan's expression became solemn, "Do you have to go? Could it be a trap?"

Arthur showed a wry smile, "You are also from the Wind and Snow Legion, don't you understand the reason that military orders are difficult to disobey?"
