Chapter 928 Unconventional Cavalry


Chapter 928 Unconventional Cavalry

On horseback, Zhou Chongshan’s archery skills were stunning.

The one he shot down should be the officer on the opposite side. After the other side was swallowed up by the tide of rats, the remaining giant rat knights obviously fell into a brief chaos.

But after the chaos, the entire offensive did not stop.

Maintaining the previous state, Zhou Zhongshan opened his bow crazily, and from time to time, he would display the stunt of two consecutive shots or even a chain of arrows, in order to allow himself to kill the giant rat knight faster.

Maintaining this archery rhythm, the arrows carried by Zhou Chongshan were quickly consumed.

Seeing this, the soldier on the side quickly handed over his arrow pot.

Compared to their commander, keeping these arrows in their own hands is simply a waste.

After sending out the quiver, he did not stay in the middle row, and directly rushed to the front row, cooperating with his comrades in the front row to resist the surrounding rat tide, and providing cover for the middle row.

Seeing this, other soldiers around him began to follow suit.

Zhou Chongshan rolled his eyes in his heart.

Thanks to the fact that he is now in the Hundred Refining Realm, his physical fitness has been greatly improved. Otherwise, it would have been too much for him to fire his bow at such a high frequency before.

During this process, the giant rat knight on the opposite side undoubtedly realized the power of Zhou Chongshan, a mobile sniper, and immediately changed his action mode.

In the blink of an eye, some giant rat knights had moved to their middle row positions to launch a surprise attack.

Faced with this situation, the cavalrymen in the front row who were tasked with covering the formation were not indifferent and immediately launched support.

But at the same time, it also made the whole situation become more and more chaotic.

Noticing this, Zhou Chongshan hurriedly shouted...

"Pay attention to maintain the charging formation!!"

Heavy armored cavalry like them need to charge in one go. .

Once you stall in the enemy formation, it will be difficult to rush up again, especially when facing such an ultra-high-density rat tide.

Facing the attack of the giant rat knight, it was completely a subconscious reaction of the soldiers to support and protect the middle row who was bending their bows and arrows, but this directly led to the formation of a chaotic battle.

By the time Zhou Chongshan realized the problem, there was no room for turning around.

And this is probably the purpose of the giant rat knight!

Without giving them a chance to think, the giant rat knights quickly formed an encirclement. They fought with casualties and launched a wave of attacks directly towards them, completely disrupting their formation. .

On the battlefield, there was a chaotic battle, and the trapped cavalry, which gradually lost their charging momentum, quickly stalled. At this moment, the surrounding rat tide was like a shark that smelled the smell of blood, and immediately swarmed up, trying to devour them. Almost exhausted!

The rat slave soldiers, who originally posed no threat to them in a charging state, have now become their biggest obstacle!

Facing the drastic change in the situation, Zhou Chongshan resolutely changed the weapon in his hand back to the saber and responded with the cleanest slash.

The rat slave soldiers surrounding him were basically vulnerable to him.

But so what?

Completely different from the situation of the regular army, there are simply too many rat slave soldiers.

Just kill them one by one with five hundred trapped in the camp? Even if they kill until they are weak, they still won't be able to kill them all.

Looking at the rat men who had surrounded them, Zhou Chongshan suddenly had a bold idea.

"Everyone listen to the order, pick up shields and dismount! Protect the horses to the middle of the formation! Form sword and shield formation to attack!"

After receiving the order, the soldiers trapped in the camp did not hesitate and executed it immediately. In the blink of an eye, the heavy armored cavalry was trapped in the camp one moment, and it was seamlessly switched to the heavy armored infantry the next moment!

The greatest advantage of the cavalry lies in their mobility and the powerful destructive power they create when launching a group charge!

As for the current situation, facing the rat tide that completely trapped them to death, these two advantages of being cavalry could not be used at all, and even became a limitation in their fight with the rat tide.

Now off the horse, with their feet on the ground, facing the rising tide of rats, they fought side by side with swords and shields. After a round of slashing, they were even more powerful than when they were riding on horseback. It's a lot easier.

During this period, he encountered the giant rat knight who was attacking him, but he didn't panic at all.

According to their human standards, this giant rat knight of the rat people is lighter than the light cavalry.

And they are also very special and unconventional cavalry.

The core of conventional cavalry is group charge, but there is no such thing in Giant Rat Knight.

After several rounds of fighting, they have clearly felt that the core of the Giant Rat Knight is sneak attack!

They used the rat tide as cover, scattered in all directions, and blended in with the rat tide, waiting for the opportunity to make a sneak attack on their target.

This fighting style destined them to be unable to use attack methods such as group charges. The attack relied entirely on the explosive power of the giant rat's mount.

And with this explosive power, it is really not that easy to directly defeat the phalanx of heavy armored infantry!

Not to mention that in the square formation of the trapped camp, there is Zhou Chongshan, a general in the Hundred Refining Realm who is always checking for leaks and filling in the gaps.

In the center of the rat tide, the trapped camp headed by Zhou Chongshan quickly stabilized its position.

But this alone is definitely not enough.

According to the scale of the rat tide on this battlefield, it is more than enough to kill them. The most important thing right now is to break the situation.

However, the key to breaking the situation at this time does not lie with them.

Maintaining the battle formation, the trapped camp headed by Zhou Chongshan seemed to have taken root in that area and stopped leaving immediately.

In the process of continuous killing, more and more rat-man corpses were piled up under their feet.

At this moment, there was a commotion outside, and the crowd of rats in front of them was quickly rushed away by a force.

Immediately afterwards, the Velociraptor Cavalry led by Tash burst into their sight.

"It's too slow."

Looking at Tash rushing in, Zhou Zhongshan, who could be regarded as an old comrade, couldn't help but complain, and immediately gave the order.

"Everyone mount up!"

Tash was speechless in response to this.

Originally, he only needed to lead the dragon cavalry to carry out close sweeps on the periphery happily.

On the battlefield at that time, the ratmen's fire targets were completely focused on the trapped camp, which allowed Tash and the others to act without much pressure.

Who would have thought that the cavalry would overturn one day after being trapped in battle?

If Zhou Chongshan knew what Tash was thinking at this moment, he would definitely say it was prejudice!

Although the combat effectiveness of heavy armored cavalry is strong, their shortcomings are also very clear. Once they are targeted, their combat effectiveness will be limited.

Of course, the main reason is that the scale of the rat tide is so large that normal human troops would have been penetrated by them with one blow! What will happen next?

This situation made Zhou Chongshan couldn't help but wonder if the rat tide was a bit different from them.

Compared to being heavily armored cavalry, they may be better able to fight if they are replaced by light cavalry.
