Chapter 0565: The Elephant Party Army Defeats Drogo Kao
Drogo Kao's order was given, and the Dothraki were still in the shock of the fire, and they were unresponsive.
A black dot appeared in the sky.
A faint whistling sound travels vaguely through the air.
However, this sound sounded like thunder to Drogo Kao's ears.
It's the sound of arrows breaking through the air.
He raised his head and looked high into the sky.
With the blue sky as the background, a small black dot appeared high in the sky, and then countless dense small black dots appeared in an instant.
The whistling sound has also turned into a whistling and sharp sound breaking through the air.
Drogo Kao, who had not received any warning from the scouts, saw a rain of arrows.
This kind of arrow is not fired by an ordinary bow.
Rather, it was shot with a special longbow.
The range is very long, which is good for attacking enemies in large areas at long range.
Indiscriminate covered shooting.
The power of this arrow is so great that it can pierce armor and kill horses. The length of the arrow is also much longer than that of a normal arrow. This longbow is almost as long as an adult's height.
Except for the advantage of being able to shoot at a dense distance, the use of this kind of bow and arrow is a disadvantage.
Puff puff!
The arrows burst through the air, dense like rain, and the unsuspecting Dothraki warriors fell to the ground. The long arrow pierced through the head and body of the war horse, and the war horse also fell to the ground one after another.
Drogo Kao was the first to detect the arrow's attack, but he was too conceited to dodge.
The Dothraki were also not accustomed to using shields.
Their strengths are knife skills, archery, and lightning speed.
Whoosh!
One by one, the arrows fell around Drogo Kao. Drogo Kao's face did not change and he drew his scimitar.
Burst!
An arrow struck his horse, which jumped to its feet, and Drogo Kao, who was a skilled horseman, sat firmly on his horse, unfallen. The horse was wounded, slammed out of control, and overhead, several arrows whizzed down on Drogo Kao.
Drogo Kao abandoned his horse and jumped to the ground.
Puff puff!
Three long arrows were stuck on the horse's back.
The ground fell in pieces of Dothraki.
They were too dense with each other, and there were no queues, disorganized.
The three Blood Alliances were at Drogo Kao's side, but they were all about themselves.
Drogo Kao turned on his horse—there is more than one horse in the Dothrakith—and he brandished the Arak scimitar: "The enemy is under the col, kill!"
He rushed out.
In front of the river beach is a hill that is not too high, blocking the view.
None of the scouts sent by Drogo Kao came back to warn, but as a rule of thumb, the enemy must have been under the hills. Although the longbow can be shot at a long distance, it is also limited.
There were many Dothraki who understood this, and as soon as Drogo Kao and his Blood Allies charged, the Dothraki cavalry immediately charged.
The speed of the horse is extremely fast.
In an instant, Drogo Kao was at the pass, and then a second round of arrows roared.
Once again, the enemy fired a volley of arrows, attacking indiscriminately.
Numerous Dothraki cavalry fell to the ground again with heavy losses.
For the first time, the Dothrakis, who were the most adept at attacking their enemies by surprise, suffered from the rain of arrows.
Two rounds of 10,000 arrows were fired at once, and the ground was like a lawn made of arrows filled with arrows.
Beneath the hills, there are plains, lined up with box-like enemy troops.
Drogo Kao was furious and rushed down the hill with lightning speed.
Behind him, the cavalry that climbed over the hills and rushed towards the enemy was like a tidal wave.
The enemy's infantry phalanx did not move, while the four thousand cavalry held down the two wings.
To date, Drogo Kao had not seen a single army dare to face the onslaught of the Dothraki cavalry head-on.
Valantis's legion was the first time.
"Ready!" the enemy general raised the small flag in his hand.
Preparation!
Preparation!
Preparation!
Countless shouts rang out at the same time.
So, the sixteen thousand infantry archers put down their longbows and replaced them with short bows.
Because the enemy is approaching like lightning. Longbows at long distances are not as convenient as short bows, which shoot faster.
Two 16,000 arrows had already dealt a heavy blow to the unsuspecting army of Drogo Kao.
But 20,000 vanguard cavalry, even if half of the strength is reduced, there are still 10,000 cavalry.
With the brave and good fighting Dothraki 10,000 cavalry against the party's 20,000 infantry cavalry mixed formation, that also occupies an absolute winning side.
"Release!" the generals of the Elephant Party ordered.
The shortbow fired a flurry of arrows, this time aimed at the approaching Dothraki.
Whoosh!
In the sky, black arrows came and went, and soldiers on both sides fell to the ground screaming.
The Dothraki cavalry was a must at the galloping horses.
Nevertheless, it was the infantry archers of the formation of the elephant party who had the absolute upper hand. They were regular and planned firing, each phalanx responsible for an airspace, in contrast to the chaotic free fire of the Dothrakis.
Burst!
Drogo Kao was struck in the shoulder.
The scimitar in his hand cleared away a lot of arrows, but he was still hit in the shoulder by the dense number of arrows.
His horse was also shot with multiple arrows.
But this kind of arrow is not a longbow and a hard arrow, the lethality is halved, and he and the war horse can still insist on continuing to charge.
Drogo Kao was at the front, and he naturally took the most arrows.
In the rush of the wind, Drogo Kao looked to his sides, to his left and right, countless horses' heads rushing forward like a tidal wave, his brothers scrambling in unison, and the shouts of the Dothraki and the sound of horses' hooves gathered into an unrivaled torrent.
It's close!
The Dothraki cavalry on the front line all drew their shiny Arraki scimitars, and they would instantly crash into the enemy's center formation.
The enemy's central army was an infantry phalanx, and only the two wings were cavalry.
Drogo Kao took the lead and led his brothers to the Chinese army.
His plan was to crush the enemy's center, break through the entire formation, and then turn around and back, splitting his troops into two lines, flanking the enemy's flanks on both sides.
The vanguard of the Dothraki was heavily damaged by the enemy's arrows, but the Chinese army still had nearly 20,000 cavalry to be the new force. Half of the Chinese army was on the banks of the river and half in the middle of the river. By the time Drogo Kao led the vanguard to break through the enemy's infantry phalanx, the Chinese army also happened to arrive, and they would win a great victory by attacking from both sides!
Kill!
Drogo Kao yelled.
Closer, closer, he saw the panic on the faces of the enemy soldiers. Drogo Kao's hand raised his Arak scimitar, so bright and sharp that it would drink human blood.
Bang!
With a loud bang, Drogo Kaorien led his horse and fell into the pit.
Boom, boom, boom!
In front of the enemy's array, the entire ground suddenly collapsed, collapsing into a deep pit several meters wide, and no matter how good a war horse could fly, it was impossible to leap into this pit.
The sudden collapse of the deep pit separated the two legions.
Drogo Kao and his Blood Alliance, along with five hundred of his most elite guards, fell into the pit. The cavalry behind also rushed into the pit.
On the entire battle line, a group of the most brave cavalry who rushed to the front rushed into the pit.
Puff puff!
The spikes of the wooden pillars inside the pit pierced the belly of the warhorse and pierced the body of the fallen warrior.
The mournful screams of the horses and the screams of the soldiers resounded across the battlefield.
Boom Boom!
The formation of the archers split apart, and the shieldmen and spearmen burst out and stabbed the enemy into the pit.
Groups of arrows rained down through the pit into the chaotic Dothraki cavalry.
Stopping abruptly in the middle of a gallop at breakneck speed is something that many cavalrymen can't do, but Dothraki can do it alone, but only in solo form.
In the midst of a swift charge among the hosts, it was impossible for the Dothraki cavalry to become a single soldier.
The first group rushed into the pit, the second stopped, and the third group of cavalry rushed into the ranks of the second group.
Chaos makes them a target for enemy archers, and a good target.
The elephant party army, which is not chaotic at all, once again fired ten thousand arrows!
The invincible Dothraki cavalry was in a mess, and they lost almost all of their leaders—the Dothraki generals, like Drogo Kao, fought at the front of the charge, which was their proud honor—and the chaotic and commandless Dothraki cavalry could not withstand the enemy's rain of arrows, and they collapsed.
