Heart of Empire Chapter 385: Assault
When more than 1,500 fighters of Dane's second wing unknowingly inserted into a position that would affect the entire battle situation, Hackett finally realized that it was indeed too late. [No pop-up novel network]
He dispatched twice as many troops as if to fix the situation before the second alliance. But even he himself knew that if Dane's team really wanted to come towards the archers of his Chinese army, his temporary dispatch might not be able to keep up. What's more, if the second regiment's goal was to attack the heavy infantry positions from the flanks, then he had no way to make up for it.
The battlefield has changed so much just by being distracted for a while? Hackett couldn't believe his eyes!
He remembered that someone reported to him just now that one of Dane's troops on the opposite side had made a move, but how long ago was that? Why is it already in place in the blink of an eye?
He was indeed amazed by the super-fast movement speed of the Second Wing on the battlefield.
As for the Second Wing, which is already in place, of course, they will not stop their actions because of Hackett's astonishment. On the contrary, with Patience personally leading the team, the Second Wing moved faster than anyone expected on the battlefield!
There was no hesitation at all. When the troops that Hackett urgently dispatched to surround her just showed signs of moving, Patience had already led the whole army to go straight eastward, pointing the blade at the enemy. Heavy Infantry Regiment!
Her ideas are straightforward and effective. If you can apply pressure through the flanks and break through the needle thread of the enemy's heavy infantry regiment, then your own White Wolf Guard can press up in one fell swoop and crush the enemy's heavy infantry regiment! The heavy infantry who have lost their formation can no longer play the mainstay role in the legion. And the army that lost the heavy infantry regiment would lose the strongest capital in the battle, as if its backbone had been smashed.
The longbow in Peixinsi's hand kept opening and releasing, and she threw out arrows one after another while running wildly. Her slender body was no longer soft and beautiful. The female elf was as fit as a falcon in the sky. With both left and right bows, a single arrow could steadily take away a life. It doesn't matter whether it's a heavy infantry under heavy armor or a sharpshooter hiding in the rushing crowd, it doesn't make any difference, if she targets her, there is only one dead end.
A whole brigade of Rangers behind her was also running and shooting. Among them, a small number of rangers are targeting the archers in the enemy's formation to suppress the opponent's long-range offensive. This is easy to do, after all, there are crossbowmen and other rangers doing such work in the distance.
As for most of the other rangers, they mainly focused their shooting on the heavy infantry of the enemy on the opposite side.
This is to clear the way for the next attack of the second wing.
Of course, the so-called clearance of obstacles cannot be achieved by relying solely on rangers. The ranger's archery is accurate, but not every ranger has Patience's ability. They couldn't kill an enemy with every arrow, and even hitting every arrow was a bit too strong, not to mention, they were still wearing heavy armor. Unless the arrow is strong enough, it will be difficult to penetrate the armor and cause too much damage to the soldiers inside the armor. Of course, if it can be shot through some gaps, that's another story. For example, the connection between the armor and the breastplate of the heavy infantry, and the position of the neck, are only blocked by linen, which probably cannot stop the arrows from entering.
It's just that hitting the enemy's body is a matter of ability. Across a long distance, when you are running and the enemy is also moving, you can still penetrate such a vital position as the neck with one arrow. Xinsi and her ranger adjutant Pearl can do it, but the others really can't.
However, shooting individual guys is enough. The real assaulters are not rangers.
When the second regiment was already running very close to the heavy infantry, a large group of elves riding black leopards accelerated their pace and passed the other soldiers , rushed to the forefront of the army!
Seeing the cavalry approaching, they turned around urgently under the orders of the officers. The heavy infantry, who were ready to meet the enemy, did not need orders from their superiors at all. They had already raised their shields and weapons and stood ready. Waiting for the impact.
It's just that the night saber cavalry rushing over are ordinary guys who rely on the impact of their mounts to eat?
The power of the flying moon blades is completely different from the ranger's arrows!
Moon blades are far less accurate than arrows, but they are not big enough and heavy enough! After receiving the blessing of the moon **** Elune, the crescent-shaped blade rotated and drew arcs under the special skill of exerting force, tearing into the formation of the heavy infantry.
The moon blade can't accurately cut into the gaps of the armor, or any other vital parts. But it doesn't matter, so what if there is armor protection? In a short distance of 20 to 30 meters~IndoMTL.com~ the thrown moon blade almost maintains the strongest lethality!
A few moon blades missed, and most of them hit the enemy. And the heavy infantry hit by the spinning moon blade, even if they held a heavy shield in front of them, their mouths would inevitably go numb. Under the strange arc of the rotating blade, some heavy infantry who failed to block the moon blade with their shields were in bad luck.
After being slashed, the huge blade can always cut into the bodies of those heavy infantry with the help of its rotating force and its own sharp characteristics.
Not dying is also a serious injury!
Under the flying blood and flesh, the heavy infantry who were ready to have a life-and-death contest with the rushing cavalry on the front line were swept down a large area. This stunned the commander of the heavy infantry regiment of the Northern Army. Unless he was attacked by artillery or magic, he had never seen a soldier in heavy armor who could instantly kill so many soldiers. s attack.
After chopping down a group of enemies with the moon blade and decisively tearing a big hole in the formation used by the heavy infantry to deal with their impact, the black tiger and leopard were urged by the elf cavalry , rushed into the enemy's formation at the next moment, leaving no time for the opponent to readjust and react! To be continued.
