The Origin of Arcane

Chapter 627: Take the initiative

The Andis Longbow has been blown in the Byron League a little bit magically recently.

Those who have actually used it are very aware that this longbow is relatively bulky, inconvenient to carry, and has low accuracy. If you want to shoot or hunt accurately, it is definitely not an excellent choice.

But when a large number of longbowmen assemble into an army, especially for defense of the city, it does have its own uniqueness, especially when there are enough arrows, once the arrow rain is formed, the lethality played by it is quite terrifying.

If you look down from the air, you will find that the rain of arrows from Hukou Fort not only originated from the city walls and arrow towers, but also from the inside of the fort, which was thrown out at a large angle.

This means that it can mobilize all defensive forces.

Hukou Fort’s current garrison personnel have reached a saturated state, with more than 4,300 personnel. Under normal conditions, only 1,500 to 1,800 personnel go to the wall for defense, and the rest serve as rotation reserves.

The Andis longbow is suitable for projectile characteristics, allowing these reserves to act as temporary longbowmen in the city, bringing damage to the siege personnel at medium and close range.

What is the concept of more than 3,000 longbowmen showing off at the same time?

Even if they are not professional longbowmen, there is no problem in firing three bows in ten seconds.

Thousands of sharp arrows smashed into the chaotic Odin orc siege team, causing damage that was more terrifying than the black powder barrels thrown by the trebuchet.

After all, there are only eighteen trebuchets on top of Hukou Fort.

This thing is cumbersome to operate, and the rate of fire is very unsatisfactory.

It takes more than a minute to serve.

If Odin orcs can overcome the fear in their hearts, they will discover this fatal flaw if they rush forward.

On average, the lethality of the black powder keg is the same, which is completely within the acceptable range.

Odin said that the orcs had been defeated by the terrifying explosive power of the black powder barrel, rather than being dominated by the fear in their hearts.

Regardless of the reason, a collapse is a collapse.

Once it is broken, it will be difficult to gather courage in a short time.

The morale-less Odin orcs are no longer a group of ferocious wolves, but a group of lambs to be slaughtered.

"Oh!" The veteran Jim looked at the thousands of corpses and the Odin orcs who retreated in embarrassment. He hammered the wall hard and let out a sigh of indignation.

Amidst the cheers, this sigh was particularly harsh.

"What's the matter? Uncle Jim, we just won a brilliant victory. It's a thing to be happy about. Why sigh?" Jemile flushed with excitement.

Recruits like him are most likely to be inspired by such things.

This is definitely a brilliant victory.

From beginning to end, the Odin orcs had no chance to launch a serious attack on the walls of Hukou Fort.

The death rate of Hukou Fort’s defenders was zero. Only a dozen unlucky people were accidentally shot by arrows thrown by the opponent. Most of them were not fatal. At most, they were bleeding or breaking a few bones. .

The archery skills of the Odin orcs were amazing, but the weapons are really not powerful.

This naturally makes them rejoice.

The stronger the weapons in their hands, the greater the chance that they will survive the war.

"I missed a great opportunity for nothing. If we have three thousand fine riders, no, even if you give me one thousand, the city gate is wide open at this moment, and you follow them to kill, it is not just to repel their attack. They can even step on their original formation directly and drive them back to the grassland like sheep. At that time, the damage caused is not as simple as a thousand people." The veteran Jim grew more and more angry, "What a pity! such a pity!"

A rare opportunity, if you miss this time.

After the Odin orc reorganized, he attacked again, and the black powder keg was afraid it would be difficult to exert its power to shock the soul.

"Not so, there are still tens of thousands of Odin orcs out there!" Jamil didn't believe what Jim said, even if the opponent was a veteran of war.

"What do recruits know! Only soldiers who have morale are soldiers who have no morale. No matter how well equipped they are, they are also a group of farmers wearing armor. They know what tactics of sheep-driving are called?" Jim was very dissatisfied with Jamil's questioning.

"I don't know." Jamil shook his head honestly. His background and experience gave him no chance to touch this one.

"The sheep-driving tactic is to drive down the soldiers and drive them to the rear. These soldiers who have been frightened will spread this negative emotion to their companions and let them run with them, just like a flock of sheep blindly following. The head sheep walked the same way, and didn't know why it was done, which led to a big collapse.

Previously, General Pedro led the Broken Blood Cavalry to raid the Miracle Peninsula, and used this trick to the extreme, using the fear of the herders and serfs to traverse the land with millions of enemies and destroy them. "Jim smashed his mouth, his eyes full of envy.

Joining the Broken Blood Cavalry is the biggest dream of every Broken Pulse soldier. Although he is an elite, he still has a long way to go before joining Broken Blood Cavalry.

"It's a pity that we don't have the power of Fractured Blood Cavalry." Jamil still couldn't imagine everything Jim said, and attributed part of the credit to Fractured Blood Cavalry's own strength.

"Idiot, it's useless to tell you too much." After a vent, Jim sat back under the battlements. "Now you can rest at ease. This new weapon from Yongye's army is better than I thought. The power is even greater. Now it is estimated that those Odin orcs are also frightened. For a day and a half, they will not muster the courage to continue the attack. We can’t go out of the city to fight back, causing a lot of damage to them and giving them a chance to regroup. This battle is temporarily The meeting will not be over for a while, there will be more to suffer later!"

"According to the situation just now, no matter how large the number of Odin orcs is, it will not be enough to die." Jamil squatted back in a squat.

Only then did he realize that his breath was relieved, his legs and feet were a little soft, and he was shaking involuntarily.

The war just lasted not long, but every string on his body was tight, causing a lot of physical wastage.

"Legs and feet are weak? It's normal. Everyone comes here like this. Just two more games." Jim threw another handful of beef jerky to Jamil and chewed it on his own.

Jamil couldn't help but stare at his chest for a few moments. How much of this stuff did he hold in his arms? At a critical time, I wonder if it can be used as a layer of armor?

Jamil didn't refuse the other party's kindness, because he found that this method not only replenishes physical strength, but also distracts his attention, so that his spirit will not be so tight, and thus relieve the body and mind.

Jim continued: "Don't think about things so optimistically. Whether it is the black powder barrel or the number of longbows, they are limited. According to the consumption rate of the war just now, it will not last a few days. Look, the city Someone has already started cleaning the battlefield."

While they were talking, the city gate of Hukoubao had been opened.

Hundreds of broken vein soldiers rushed out in a big swing.

The mending knife in front harvested those Odin orcs who hadn't died yet, and didn't mean to accept the captives.

The ones behind were collecting arrows. Whether the pipes were intact or damaged, even the arrows on the corpse of Odin orc were dug out by them.

Obviously, the main general of Broken Blood Castle is also preparing for a protracted battle.

After all, there are too many Odin orcs, and it is not an easy task to completely defeat them.

Why didn't the Hukoubao main commander realize that it was an excellent opportunity to attack, but unfortunately they did not have cavalry in their hands.

If you use infantry to attack, you will not be able to play the sheep-driving tactics. On the contrary, it is very likely that the Odin orcs will make dumplings.

The most important point of the sheep-driving tactic is to try to make the defeated soldiers have no time to think and eliminate the fear in the heart.

This situation not only occurred in Hukou Fort, hundreds of kilometers around Broken Blood Fort, and similar situations occurred in the fortresses that were attacked.

Faced with the new weapons added to the Broken Vessel Line of Defense, the first wave of cannon fodder on the offensive was all defeated.

However, there is a lack of cavalry in the broken pulse defense line, and the number of them is very different from that of the opponent.

I could only watch Odin's orcs regain their strength after returning.

Suddenly, a stalemate formed.

Odin surrounds the orcs without breaking, and can only passively wait for the broken line of defense.

On the contrary, it was the Blood Fortress, the core of the entire Broken Vessel Defense Line, and no war broke out.

It is not to say that this place is not surrounded, on the contrary, this is where the main force of the Western Odin Empire is located, and the essence of the entire tiger family is here.

Standing on the watchtower on the first wall of Broken Blood Fort, he looked out, looking into the cowhide tent with no end in sight.

Although the two sides are in confrontation, they are not as calm as they appear.

Over the broken blood fort, mountain eagles are spreading across the sky.

Around the Western Odin Empire army, various messenger sentries ride back and forth.

The Broken Vein Line of Defense and the scattered tribes are their tentacles stretched out, and they are competing here.

In terms of the speed of message transmission alone, the Siodin Empire was significantly worse by several grades.

The blood fort broke the news and made new adjustments. The news from the West Odin Empire has only been late.

No matter what important information they convey, it is already too late.

Even if it is the main defense of Broken Blood Fort, the main attack of the West Odin Empire.

Broken-mouthed Blood Fort still used the intelligence to give the Theodin Empire several hard punches.

There is also an elite cavalry in Broken Blood Fort.

They couldn't support a place like Hukou Fort that was too far away from Broken Blood Fort.

But those who are closer to Broken Blood Fortress can go.

Just as veteran Jim predicted, after being robbed of courage and soul by black powder.

The broken-mouth blood knight that suddenly emerged from the pass, whether it was a thousand people or three thousand people, played the most classic sheep-driving tactics.

Those Odin orcs who fell into fear have lost the most basic judgment, and they don't know how many broken blood knights are.

The Odin orc tribe, which was several times the size of the broken blood ride, was shattered by the impact, and fled to the north in embarrassment.

Those who died under the broken blood-riding sword were only a few, and more died of chaotic trampling and killing.

When intelligent life is dominated by fear, the behavior pattern will become very chaotic. In their eyes, those who hinder their escape are all enemies.

In particular, most of the herders who were driven out as forwards were the herders of the East Odin Empire. While they still had hatred for the West Odin Empire, it was not uncommon for some people to take advantage of the chaos to retaliate.

Broken Blood Rider is a clever use of this.

They took advantage of intelligence to move back and forth in the heavy forces of the West Odin Empire, three in and three out, and nearly one hundred thousand Odin orcs were scattered into the prairie. It was difficult to organize them again in a short time.

When the forces of the Western Odin Empire got news and were preparing to encircle and suppress them, they had already used the major gates to withdraw to the south of the Broken Pulse Defense Line.

In this kind of complex coordinated battle, with the assistance of the Yongye Army, the initial establishment of the Blood Fortress Staff Headquarters played an important role.

Behind each of the broken blood knights, there are two or more military staff members to support them, helping them to gather and pass information, so as to achieve the purpose of joint operations.

This military staff, with a somewhat private nature, became the permanent residence of Grand Duke Cedric.

He squatted here for half of the time every day, but his understanding of the entire Broken Pulse Defense Line was far better than he used to run around the world.

The entire battle situation appeared in front of him in the form of a sand table.

The door of the military staff was suddenly pushed open, and General Esmond, who still had traces of fighting on his general armor, strode in, shook his head at Grand Duke Cedric and said: "There is no chance to attack, every tribe There was a team of elite staring at the back. They had found a way to deal with it. The ears of the horse were plugged, and the elite was hiding far behind the cannon fodder herders. They didn't care about their life or death. I just stepped on the horse and stepped over. The level of cruelty is not worse than ours. Once you are entangled by them, it will be over. Please also order your Majesty to take all the blood knights back."

Grand Duke Cedric did not directly answer Esmond, but turned his head to look at the middle-aged person beside him and said: "Chief of Staff, what do you think?"

This middle-aged man is no one else. It is Bran, the main chief of staff dispatched by the Yongye Army leader to the Blood Fortress. Judging from the attitude displayed by Grand Duke Cedric, he has established his own in the Blood Fortress. prestige.

It also reflects the extraordinary tolerance of Grand Duke Cedric. As long as he has the ability, he doesn't mind the origin of the other party.

This is determined by the characteristics of the broken pulse line of defense.

Their source of troops comes from the All Byron Alliance, they have non-stop lifestyles, and some are even problematic.

If there is not enough inclusiveness, how can they be organized into a whole for their own use?

Including the newly emerged Andeans is no exception. As long as they can use them for their own purposes, enhance the combat effectiveness of the Broken Vein Line of Defense, and hold hostility to the Odin orcs, Grand Duke Cedric will never treat them differently~www.wuxiaspot.com ~Finally, the leader of Yongye has already proved this with his own actions-Queen Oyuntana of the Western Odin Empire, delivered to the hands of Broken Blood Fort.

You know, the process of capturing Queen Oyuntana by the leader of the Eternal Night Army was very lucky and secretive. Even if they secretly detained and secretly traded with the West Odin Empire, the Blood Fortress was completely ignorant.

Brann’s main chief of staff replied without even thinking about it: "I agree with General Esmond’s opinion that Ulaanbaaji is a difficult opponent. We have the advantage when we start because he doesn’t know our details. Now Many things have already been tempted by him. Maybe they will deliberately set a trap at some point. They are numerous and have a high fault tolerance rate. Even if they are defeated by more than 100,000 people, they are still Minor injuries.

If we lose ten to twenty thousand blood knights, it will be a painful thing for us.

The focus of this battle is to delay. As long as the first half of the year is delayed, the advantage of the Siodin Empire's huge army will become their biggest disadvantage, and they will be dragged down alive. At that time, it will be our perfect opportunity to fight back. "

"That's what I meant." General Esmond nodded repeatedly.
