Chapter 372: Meeting on a narrow road, the brave wins
On a mortal battlefield, the two warring parties cannot determine the specific location and number of enemies, so scouts and reconnaissance must be sent in all directions to disperse the fog and provide vision.
But on an extraordinary battlefield, this law of war may not be accurate.
Because some people can use special means to illuminate their vision.
There are Warcraft witches in the City of Origin, and the Kingdom’s army also has priests accompanying the army to get inspiration from the underworld.
Of course, the vision provided by those means still has limitations.
For example, no matter how good the eyesight of Warcraft Witch's bird is, it cannot overlook the entire battlefield.
The same is true for the kingdom's army. Their revelation is not clear, they can only feel that there is such a force approaching them.
For example, when the City of Origin mobilizes its troops, it is like throwing a stone into the water. When the ripples spread, the priests of the Black Iron Army noticed the unusual fluctuations - the ripples themselves were waves. Came with them.
The methods of the Holy See are even more advanced than those of Warcraft and Witches.
After all, the witch is a drone at best.
The priest's revelation comes from a special dimension, and is much more convenient and prophetic than the witch.
In the past hundred years or so, the Holy See has lost this detection method. Until the crown crashed, they received the blessing of the gods and re-established some kind of connection with the nether world.
This incident is also recorded in the Secret History of the Black Iron Palace.
Tashina knew about this, but she also knew that those priests could only get vague information. It is impossible to give a clear reminder that 'my combat strength is only 6,000, and he has at least 10,000 or more', nor is it possible to know her marching route.
The battlefield has become transparent to a certain extent, but not that transparent.
Because it is almost impossible to predict the course and outcome of the war.
The only thing that is certain is that when a raid loses its information advantage and first-mover advantage, all tactical actions will eventually result in head-on confrontation.
The head of the Carter family is reckless and a complete militant.
The King of Lavender looks elegant, but is actually arrogant.
The two have completely different acting styles. The only thing they have in common is that they are both confident, otherwise they would not rush forward rashly and go deep alone - this is a taboo on the battlefield, but they do not take it seriously, or in other words, they think it is not a problem at all. .
……
The sun is clearly setting in the west.
The bright sunlight gradually fades away.
The two armies are about to meet, and they are all ready for battle.
Tashina said: "Lord Dick, I will leave my black iron to your command. You will lead the main force of the infantry to contain it from the front, and I will lead the cavalry to attack from behind."
This is a standard anvil. Hammer tactics.
Black Iron is an infantry unit. Although it can travel long distances, its mobility is not as good as that of cavalry, so it is placed on the front line.
Soon, Tahina led more than 1,300 cavalry and broke away from the main force.
This is a wilderness. The terrain is not complicated or flat. There are many hills and hills. It's spring now, and the lush forest has become an effective shelter.
‘Bang! Bang! Bang! ’
The attack drum sounds.
The main phalanx of the River Valley Army began to stride forward. The wilderness terrain prevented them from forming a tight formation, because as long as they encountered a tree or a stone, the integrity of the lineup would be affected.
But even if the formation is uneven, the three rows of sharp spears in front are still a complete threat, and the spearheads are shining with a bright cold light.
"Fight!!" The head of the Beast family shouted.
"Wow!!" Thousands of beast warriors roared fiercely.
They have a strong will to fight and quickly infected many conscripts.
In the past, the Carter family had fought against the River Valley Army in order to compete for salt mines. Hundreds of warriors died tragically in this battle. It was the battle with the heaviest casualties in the decades of development of the Beast family.
Now they are here again.
"Fire the arrow!!" Dick shouted. Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh...
The arrows fired from the rear of the River Valley Army covered Carter's army like a torrential rain. After long-term training and repeated battles, the range and accuracy were very accurate, especially the sniper brigade. All members can be called elite archers. .
"Ah!" the injured screamed.
Some of the arrows hit the levy, but more were blocked by the shields.
“Attack!!”
Then, they were greeted by a spear charge!
The River Valley Army directly attacked to make up for the gap in the battle. The attack rhythm was full and no chance was given.
The levy troops in the front row were hit by arrows and their morale collapsed, but there was no way to retreat in the rear.
The Carter family needs to recruit troops to fill the line and consume the physical energy of the main force of the River Valley Army.
Filling in the lines is a very tragic thing.
For example, for an army of ten thousand people, the death of one hundred people does not sound like much, only one percent.
But for the front row, it is equivalent to the collective death of the front row people.
So, if no one is restrained, even if the levy army is 1% damaged, they may flee because no one wants to die.
But if there are thousands of fully armed beast warriors supervising the battle behind them, then the death rate of the levied army will increase linearly. If you still have a chance to kill the enemy, if you turn around and run away, you will be killed on the spot. Hacked to death.
Their sacrifice was not without value.
The spearman's physical strength will be greatly depleted, the spearhead will be unable to be withdrawn in a short time because it stabs the enemy, and the corpse will increase the complexity of the battlefield...
...
< br>When the two sides are fighting head-on.
Tashina is also leading the cavalry to make a detour.
The battlefield is very vast. For the cavalry, several miles is a detour space.
For convenience, they usually choose flatter roads.
The cavalry behind Tahina is composed of special units, vanguards, white knights, oak soldiers and other units.
Thousands of horses galloped, the ground trembled, and smoke and dust rose.
"Beep!" A sharp whistle came from the sky.
That's the scout's arrow warning!
Tashina suddenly raised her head and looked at the sky ahead, vaguely seeing smoke and dust rising, and the vibrations of the earth became irregular.
The messenger crow fell from the sky. It croaked and shouted anxiously in a hoarse voice: "Your Royal Highness, you have discovered the enemy's situation and are fighting for the knights! Come this way! Many! Many!"
Tahina instantly realized that when she chose to take a detour, the enemy also chose this tactic.
Unfortunately, they chose the same path!
In other words, the two strange soldiers met head-on.
"Everyone!! Draw your swords!!"
Tashina is wearing a white cloak and her white armor is light. The power she bursts from her lungs and throat instantly overwhelms the rumble of the horse's hooves. The sound resounded in everyone's ears, which was shocking.
"Lances are used as thorns! Bucklers are used as shocks! Oak clan! Go forward bravely!!" The Oak Prince wore shining armor.
“We meet on a narrow road——” Nathan was roaring.
“The brave wins!!” All the pioneers shouted in unison! !
The earth is shaking!
Close!
The kingdom’s army was obviously aware of the cavalry coming in the opposite direction.
But they did not choose to slow down, but made the same choice as Princess Baigang!
That’s acceleration!
Constantly accelerating! !
