Chapter 1974 The chain crossbow strikes again(1/2)
This kind of thing is something that the people of the three major empires did not expect, especially the senior officials in power. They absolutely do not want to see such a thing happen within their own empire. In their opinion, the Thunder Gate should be eliminated as soon as possible.
Yes, and blocking the frozen forest is the most important one. Naturally, the Eastern Empire also saw this important point, so they wanted to break through Li Cong's blockade at all costs. Their army has now arrived at the Yami Plain.
In this area, 1540km to the southeast is the Eastern Empire, and 450km to the west is the Northern Empire. In the past, caravans from the Northern Empire often came here, but now because there are too many Warcraft,
There are no caravans coming over anymore. It is said that caravans also have seniors and juniors in their homes, right? If this happens, it will cost you your life.
They are stationed here less than 30 kilometers away from Li Cong's army blocking the frozen forest. Li Cong understands their intentions very well. They must rush through this place, as long as they give a message to the people at the Thunder Gate.
Well, the people from the Thunder Gate headquarters will naturally not show up. They will definitely tell most of the news about the Thunder Gate to the Eastern Empire. It will be convenient for the senior people in the Eastern Empire to contact the people from the Thunder Gate within the three empires at that time.
, hundreds of thousands of years have passed, and the penetration between these four empires is also very powerful. If they want to do this, they will be much more powerful than the people who came out of the Thunder Gate. By then, Li Cong wants to be the same as before.
It is impossible to block them. If this part of the force is integrated, it will be absolutely no problem to deal with Li Cong. However, Li Cong is not the target of the Eastern Empire. The Eastern Empire may take risks and ask those people to revolt. This
It's all possible. By then, the other three empires will start to be in chaos, and they will be able to reap the benefits. This is something Li Cong doesn't want to see. Now all the forces in the three empires are in the three major empires.
Within the empire. If any chaos occurs in the three empires, his own losses will definitely be very serious. Li Cong will never let such a thing happen to him. Unknowingly, Li Cong himself was also affected by the three empires.
After being kidnapped, both sides were now on the same boat, so Li Cong could only immediately rush to the eastern part of the Northern Empire with the fifteen divisions he could integrate.
Among these fifteen divisions, there are members of the escort army of the three divisions that Li Cong had formed himself, and the rest have just been formed. However, they are still different from other newly formed armies. They are the entire establishment.
He came here. He really changed his clothes and all the clothes were from the original army, so he was very good at commanding. If he was really reorganized, let alone go to the battlefield to fight, he would even be able to run there.
It was an unknown number. Now Li Cong felt very relieved when he saw their neat steps. At least they didn't hold him back. Of course, there were two divisions of infantry among them, so naturally they couldn't be that fast.
Li Cong had previously thought about asking the cavalry to advance quickly and let the infantry pass by slowly, but then he thought that if the infantry without cavalry protection encountered the enemy's cavalry, it would be a living target for the enemy. In this way
You can't do things like that. Originally, your strength was not as good as others, and now you can't even do that. Every soldier is a very important person to you.
Li Cong is naturally riding a little tiger, but if this guy lets out his breath, it is estimated that all these millions of military horses will be lying on the ground immediately. This is absolute, let alone them, they are Warcraft
All the monsters in the mountains will do that. This is a pure king. Many soldiers are very envious of their general's mount. It comes and goes like a gust of wind. The most important thing is that they don't seem to see this guy tired. They also know
This must be a Warcraft, but they never expected that this would be a Level 10 Warcraft. In their opinion, even if a Level 10 Warcraft is dead, it cannot be used as a mount by a human. It is too embarrassing.
"Report..." Li Cong saw the three people in front of him on horseback running over with Hong Ling on their backs. This was Hong Ling's urgent report. Emergency military information usually looks like this. They
People are spies. Could it be that something happened earlier? According to the rules in the army, they can report without dismounting. The three guys were covered in sweat. It looked like they had been running for a long time. Before Li
As soon as permission was granted, one of the leaders began to say, "Report to the general, enemy archers were found thirty miles ahead, numbering more than 200,000, and there are a large number of cavalry behind them, the number is unknown." This guy said.
, it's no wonder, they haven't been to the battlefield for a long time, no wonder they are so nervous when they see the enemy. Li Cong also understands, it seems that he has to give them a little confidence, otherwise he may still
If they didn't wait to go to the battlefield, these people would be scared to death by themselves. Such a thing would definitely happen. They all arrived 30 miles in front of them. It seems that they also knew that they were coming and were ready to give them a try.
It's a meeting gift.
"Order the entire army to move forward faster. The people from the 321st and 330th brigades of the Second Division rush to the front and stop 500 meters away from the enemy. I also ask the company commanders of the entire army to go to the front and take a look.
"Stay, you guys continue to investigate, and come back and tell me if there is any trouble." Li Cong said confidently, he has already transported 200,000 serial crossbows from the rty planet. This thing is very important in ordinary people's wars.
That is very good. This war also has its rules. You, a level 10 warrior, cannot massacre ordinary people. If you want to massacre ordinary people, you have to kill your opponents. In that case, no matter how you play, you will not be able to massacre ordinary people.
It's your own business, but generally speaking, masters don't bother to fight against ordinary people. It seems that they are too cheap. Ordinary people still have to rely on ordinary people to fight wars. Besides, some large-scale wars can happen at every turn.
There are hundreds of millions of people. How many can you kill as a tenth-level warrior? With such a large number, killing millions of people will probably be tiring. If you want to kill people on a large scale, you can only rely on magicians, but if the opponent
If there are magicians, if you go to kill people, they will kill you, so the masters will decide the outcome with the masters first. This is basically the rule of war. Of course, the party that loses the master has a higher chance of losing.
It is also relatively large.
The 170,000-strong combat troops of the two brigades of the Second Division immediately began to advance quickly after receiving the news from Li Cong. They were originally infantry, but Li Cong wanted to improve their mobility, so he got them horses.
One by one, they ran very fast. During training, they were also very interested in the serial crossbow in their hands. Oh my god, this thing is simply a murder weapon. They looked at the 300 crossbows on their backs.
In the past, bows and arrows were probably not needed so much to fight a war, but they understood it after practice. I guess this is enough for one battle. You bastards of the Eastern Empire are out of luck.
A legion of three million people from the Eastern Empire over there was ordered to stop Li Cong and the others. The two legions over there were on their way. They really didn't expect that Li Cong would move so fast, and they didn't want to encounter such a
To be honest, the soldiers of the other three empires have not experienced much war. The soldiers of the Eastern Empire are also like this. They all feel the same about the war, which is fear in their bones, but thinking about their numerical advantage
, and I am no longer afraid. Besides, their equipment is also advantageous. It is said that their equipment is worth more than 10 taels of silver per person. It is said that the Northern Empire's is only 8 taels of silver, although 2 taels of silver are
It may not necessarily have any effect, but at least their psychological effect on the battlefield is huge. Under the same conditions, I have one more chance of staying alive than them, which is amazing.
Naturally, the army of the Eastern Empire did not want to confront Li Cong head-on. They hoped to use their military power to scare Li Cong back. They also investigated Li Cong's details and found out that this guy was a minister of the Northern Empire.
Bastard, although such a person usually sees a little more of the world than a child from an ordinary person's family, how much does this guy know about the real things in the army? He must not know much. Since this guy knows this, he doesn't know much.
If there are too many, then when they encounter the Eastern Empire's army in the future, they will definitely think that it is better not to fight. Although they have seen several big battles, war and fighting are still two different things. No, the Eastern Empire
What the general over there wants to do is to give Li Cong a show of strength first, so that the matter can be settled. The outcome of the first battle is very crucial. Such things must be understood.
The armies of both sides began to approach step by step on this plain that had no food but was very fertile. It would be very good if food was really grown here. Unfortunately, there are usually monsters here.
, whether it is a first-level monster or a second-level monster, this is nothing to some warriors, but it is not good for the common people who farm. The first-level monster can also make them run around, but now both sides are on the same level.
Tens of millions of troops are approaching quickly. Naturally, the monsters will not dare to come here when they see this posture. Why don't they run faster? Li Cong's two brigades have hundreds of thousands of people and the opponent's legion has hundreds of people.
Thousands of cavalry and two hundred thousand archers are about to confront each other. What Li Cong wants is to use his two brigades to show the people of the Eastern Empire that you are no match for me. It is best to defeat them all at once.
You are sore from the beating.
The two brigade commanders of the 321st Brigade and the 330th Brigade are also very confident in this. With their own spies watching in front, it is impossible to fall into an ambush or anything. In fact, no one in the Eastern Empire thought that they could ambush.
Their, what people want is to kill you from the front. If they don’t do that, they may not be able to give you a blow. They will give you no excuses in various aspects. This is the real failure. This way of dealing with
The blow to your confidence is very critical. Only in this way can we tell you to go back. The matter of blocking the frozen forest can be left alone. Just blocking your side will have no effect at all if we don't block it here. Thunder and Lightning
The biggest backstage is the Eastern Empire. If they can help each other, even if this mission fails, the three empires will suffer heavy losses. They will not be destroyed, but they cannot afford the losses. In fact, speaking of losses
Come on, the first one to cry out is naturally the Eastern Empire. Without this guy Li Cong, they could definitely occupy the four empires, but now they don’t have that ability. They can only do their best to make themselves
The losses have been reduced to a minimum, so the people in the Eastern Empire basically have very strong opinions. They could have been the masters of the entire continent, but now there is basically no hope of that, although they will still develop the ocean step by step.
They have become stronger, but as long as the three empires unite, they will never stand a chance. This time, they put all their anger on Li Cong.
Soon, people in the Eastern Empire also saw Li Cong's troops. They thought that Li Cong's military appearance and military discipline were very good. What the people in the Eastern Empire originally thought was that these people might be as good as farmers.
They were scattered. If that were the case, I wouldn't need to do anything to them. As long as the archers on my side fired a thousand arrows, they would be able to scare the shit out of those people. Unfortunately, what they thought didn't happen.
Some of the veterans among them saw at a glance that the cavalry coming in front were not very capable, that is, they were just strong and brave. The recruits were a little scared. Aren't they all just like farmers? They were also the army after all. The veterans saw at a glance
It can be seen that these people should not have been cavalry before. They should have been infantry and temporary horsemen. Such a nondescript army is the least threatening. They are called mounted infantry. These people do not have the impact of cavalry.
, and does not have the combat effectiveness of infantry. It can be said to be the most important thing on the entire battlefield, but they just made it. It can be seen that the guy commanding it is useless. Besides, it doesn't matter even if it is really cavalry, there is no
Did you see the two hundred thousand archers in front of us? Here are hundreds of thousands of you. It seems that you are going to make dumplings for us. You should walk faster. Why did you stop at the two arrows?
Well. That place is beyond the reach of archers. As long as you move forward a little further, we can kill you. It seems that the commander is not completely stupid. If he rushes over like that,
This is your nightmare, looking at the Eastern Empire's army in the distance. The two brigade commanders looked at each other, and it was indeed like this. They were both cheerful, and they were going to kill you in a moment.
"Brigadier, the people from the Eastern Empire over there have started to send us flags." The brigade commander's guard had better eyesight, and he quickly saw the movements of the Eastern Empire's troops on the opposite side. Although this was of no use. But every time
These actions were taken every time a war started, and this was the first time Li Cong encountered such a war. It seemed that he could omit this link in the future. Although it was unscrupulous, it was very effective.
The brigade commander just wanted to ask his soldiers to send a message to the other side. According to the normal order, they should come like this, but Li Cong's order arrived immediately, ordering the people here to start attacking immediately and not to mess with the opponent.
What he said, the brigade commander was a guy who took genetic medicine, so he naturally obeyed Li Cong's words. The soldiers below didn't quite understand this. In their opinion, this requires good communication for a while, and
It’s not that we have to fight with others as soon as we come up, but we are just soldiers. We have to do whatever the superiors say. Wherever we have room to talk, we naturally start fighting as soon as possible.
The troops of the Eastern Empire are not fools. They can still clearly see the movements of hundreds of thousands of people. Damn it, they are about to enter combat mode without saying a word. How can there be such a person? But they thought of this Li
He has always been a non-soldier, and such a person cannot be very rational in anything he does. Soon most people began to change their formations, but when they were halfway through changing, they suddenly
I found that the opposite side had already started attacking. How could those guys be faster than us? We are all from the regular army, and none of those guys were from the regular army. How could it be?
Li Cong sneered. There is really nothing you can say about these armies. They all fight according to their own ideas. I can only feel sorry for you. You all follow the rules, but I
There are no rules here. The two cavalry divisions behind the two brigades are already ready. They are just waiting for the serial crossbows to cause chaos for them. Then the cavalry here will rush up. Then they will want you to look good.
Okay, okay, as long as this first battle is won, things on the front line will be much easier to handle. Are you afraid that you people in the Eastern Empire won't feel hurt by that time? It will also be a huge blow to the people in the entire Eastern Empire.
Strike.
Of course, from the perspective of the Eastern Empire, it is impossible for them to fail. Isn't it just that they moved a little faster? This does not prove that you are as elite as us. It is very easy for us to kill you, but
Just before they finished changing formations, a plume of black smoke seemed to fly out from the square formation on the opposite side. Naturally, the recruits didn't know what this thing was, but the veterans understood it very well, especially
It's a group of officers. This is the black shadow caused by a large number of bows and arrows flying out. They used to see this kind of thing often, but they didn't see it very much in recent years because there has been no war. It's just now.
This is not the time to watch this. Those archers opposite are targeting us. These bows and arrows have not reached us yet. The distance is too far and they cannot come. But it can be regarded as a tentative attack. This is like
It's like firing a cannon. You have to check the impact point first. Otherwise, how to adjust? Their pace is one step faster than ours. When Li Cong's army fired their bows and arrows, they had not yet realized that they were about to be attacked.
Everyone felt that the opponent's speed was just a little faster. If he could move well on his side, he could kill them.
Ah... screams began to be heard in the Eastern Empire's formation, and the people in front had already started running around. People who have been in battle for a long time may still have their own self-control, but these guys
None of them had experienced war. When they saw the people around them covered in blood, they naturally became frightened. They did not expect that the enemy's bows and arrows could have such a long range, and they were frightened.
I was thinking about how I could save my head. If I didn't run well, I might not be able to go back. Now tens of thousands of people from the front army were killed directly in the first wave of attacks, but this was not enough.
The reason why it can cause fatal damage is also because the training in the army is not enough. That's why the current situation has emerged. If those guys on the rty planet come like this, the first wave of results may be twice as high as this.
Yes, but it doesn’t matter. If it doesn’t work the first time, we will have a second time. If it doesn’t work the second time, we will have a third time. There will always be a time when these guys will suffer big losses one by one. This is not the case.
The problem is, we can do it.
Although the first wave of bow and arrow attacks killed tens of thousands of people with hundreds of thousands of bows and arrows, and the hit rate can be said to be very low, the damage they caused themselves was much greater than this number. Those guys on the horse
To be continued...
