Twenty-Seven Absurd Battles

He even thought that the cavalry at Ellandhill was here to delay and tire his cavalry. Therefore, he simply no longer struggled with these cavalry scouts, and led his troops southward to the main force of Ailan Hill, which was completely centered on infantry.

Dumbran, who has been suffocated and annoying, has been completely annoyed by the rangers of Alan Hill when he went all the way south. All he wants now is to have a good fight with the opponent, so that he can play himself. The cavalry has the advantage of moving speed and impact.

Although he had heard of the bizarre defeat of Maine's army in the eastern forest, he felt that his troops could take advantage of their speed to immediately get close to Alan Hill's troops, and could render any long-range weapons of the opponent useless.

In fact, he did exactly what he envisioned and completed his own tactical arrangement: when his troops appeared on the horizon, Chris, who hastily learned that the opponent's cavalry had been killed, was completely unprepared for battle.

On the frontal battlefield, his three battalions of infantrymen had just taken their formation. The 30 artillery pieces of the rear team did not build any firing positions, and the camp was in chaos. Vagron personally restrained these recruits and stabilized the entire 1st regiment.

However, the 1st Regiment, which had just stabilized its position, found that the opponent's cavalry had already formed a formation and rolled over from the front.

Immediately afterwards, whether it was Chris or Vagron, or even the other's commander, Dumbran, they all found that the battle situation in front of them was completely beyond their imagination. Even at the start of the battle, the commanders on both sides were shocked not to issue a valid order.

On this side, the infantrymen who had to dig trenches according to the requirements of the code of practice were not ready to face the battle at all, so under the restraint of all the officers, the entire infantry defense war launched its own way against the enemy cavalry in accordance with the previous habits. defense.

Vagron rode his horses between the three huge infantry phalanxes, urging everyone not to retreat, because once the defeat began, the mobility behind them would be low, and the artillerymen who were preparing to fire would be completely exposed to the enemy's blade.

As a result, in the next second, the prepared grenadiers in the first row started to attack the enemy cavalry about 150 meters away.

The battlefield was chaotic, and the consequences of insufficient recruit training made Chris almost lose the most crucial battle. But just a moment later, the situation on the battlefield changed dramatically.

Seeing that the opponent's cavalry, who was 100 meters away, turned on their backs, and was swept down by 300 modern rifles at once. What's even more desperate is that the grenadiers of Alan Hill are not holding the ancient flintlock guns.

After firing a bullet and a crackling row of gunshots, the recruits, who had trained twice with live ammunition, finally remembered what they had to do. They got into their own rhythm, emboldened by the sound of gunfire.

I saw that the soldiers in the first row did not stop at all, and immediately released the right palm that pulled the trigger, mechanically pulled the bolt on the side, and pushed a new bullet into the barrel.

"Bah!" Before the cavalry on the opposite side realized that the end was coming, the second volley of infantry had completely determined the outcome - the opponent's cavalry had not been close to a distance of 100 meters before they were knocked out. About half of the living force.

From the beginning to the end, the cavalry of the earth fort had not been able to enter the distance that the bows and arrows they carried could attack - the soldiers of the other side, who seemed to have no armor protection, seemed to them at this moment as far away as the horizon.

No matter how hard they tried, the distance of tens of meters seemed like a gulf that they couldn't cross. It was a feeling of powerlessness that came from the heart, it was a deep-rooted despair.

Chris was really dumbfounded by the sight in front of him: he gave these soldiers advanced weapons and equipment, and also gave them tactics to crush opponents,

But in this war environment, an army at the level of the First World War played a battle scene in the Napoleonic era.

The cannons were deployed by Vagron at the rear of the soldiers' phalanx, trying to take advantage of their range to destroy the opposing cavalry units before they could attack. However, because of the temporary engagement, these artillerymen have not played their due role until now.

Then, those soldiers equipped with Mauser 98K rifles began to stand in place, forming a square formation, holding up their weapons, and pouring their own limited ammunition to distant opponents.

The dense number of bullets hit the enemy in the distance, and the bullets penetrated the opponent's armor. When the opponent suffered heavy losses, the soldiers who were originally in the back row of the phalanx strode forward and passed the reloading five bullets. The soldiers in the front row of the folder started a new round of shooting...

It is simply the "three-stage shot" of the World War II weapon version, and Chris is almost crying without tears: the weapons and equipment he provided have evolved into such a nondescript and strange formation under the ravages of the times.

"Bah!" Another round of salvos started when Chris was thinking about it. Thousands of soldiers were like rolling wheels, crushing the cavalry in the distance. A spectacle has appeared in human history. The infantry phalanx moved forward little by little, rushing towards the enemy cavalry in the distance...

The battle was not over yet. Just when Dombran finally realized that the opponent's weapons were not his own cavalry to defeat, the 30 cannons behind Vagron were ready for battle.

Seeing that his cavalry had been defeated, the city lord of Dombran had no courage to continue fighting. However, he still wanted to restrain his cavalry, so that these cavalry could completely retreat back to the hinterland of the earthen fort, so that he would have a chance to wait for reinforcements and make a final struggle.

However, the 30 shells that fell from the sky did not leave Dombran any chance. Just as he was waving his sword, hoping to stabilize his defeated cavalry, a terrifying explosion kicked off near him.

It only took about half an hour, and the battle between the 1st Regiment of Ireland Hill and the main force of the cavalry of the earth fort was decided - Chris did not even give a decent order, and the cavalry of the earth fort lost at least 500 people, completely injured combat capability.

The goddess of luck visited Ailan Hill. Although the round of shelling did not kill many of the cavalry of the bunker that had scattered and fled, one cannonball directly killed the lord of the bunker, Tombran, among the crowd.

The lord, who was a bit skilled, didn't even have the chance to retreat, and surrendered his life in an encounter. Sadly, he originally planned to gather his troops to test Alan Hill's troops, but he accidentally turned a test into a final battle.

Seeing the cavalrymen dismount and surrender, the ground is full of war horses and human corpses, wounded enemy soldiers lay on the ground and wailed, and the similarly wounded war horses struggled and neighed, Chris couldn't believe his eyes.

"We... we are... we are winning..." Chris asked Vagron who had just returned to him with some uncertainty.

Vagron was also very embarrassed. After watching the soldiers' exercises, he knew that the army he was leading was almost invincible in the mortal country. But he never imagined that this army could be so powerful as to be at this level.

Almost all the 800 cavalrymen who wiped out the earth fort were not even wounded. Such a force has completely exceeded his imagination, because this kind of record has only appeared in the past when the Magic Empire attacked the mortal country.

Now he feels that he is not leading an army of mortals, but an army of magic! This gave him an unreal feeling, floating and very comfortable.

However... Vagron was really not satisfied with the performance of this troop just now: although the combat effectiveness was incomparably powerful, the nervousness and panic exposed by these recruits proved that this troop still has Great potential can be tapped.

Vagron couldn't even imagine how terrifying this army would be if it really reached its full form. He spit out a mouthful of saliva and stood beside Chris, and said, "Yes... I won the battle, Your Majesty."

"Let the troops rest and count the ammunition! Collect all the bullet casings..." Chris felt that it was embarrassing for him to command a battle without even giving a single order, so he could only reluctantly give an order to clean the battlefield to save some of his face .

As everyone knows, Wagron is also very embarrassed now. He just gave two orders to defeat the main cavalry of the earth fort: one order is to let the infantry "advance"; the other order is to let the artillery "fire"...

"All soldiers! Collect bullet casings!" On the battlefield, squad leaders and platoon leaders loudly urged their soldiers. Hundreds of soldiers bowed their heads, as if looking for money in the wild, rummaging for the ones that fell on the ground. shells.

"Ah..." Carrying their own weapons and holding the grenade hanging in front of them, the infantrymen of Ailan Hill began to clean up the battlefield with complaints. In their view, defeating the enemy is no longer difficult, but the work of picking up bullet casings is more uncomfortable than killing the enemy.

Many of these shells are made of copper, which is a rather scarce resource. Send it back to the factory in the rear, it can be reprocessed into reloading ammunition, and it can be used a few more times... No way, now Chris is fighting this kind of poor man's war, and every detail must be carefully calculated.

On the other side, the cavalry of the earthen castle, who were being watched by the grenadiers, stared wide-eyed at the opponents who bowed their heads to "seek money" in the distance, with incredible expressions on their faces-they couldn't believe it, it was in the distance Those stupid looking guys beat themselves up...
