Chapter 381 Chapter 381: Arrow Rain

Kira hid a mobile high platform of the ten-party alliance army formation, and quietly watched the Melox army coming out of the barracks. Footsteps suddenly sounded behind him, and he didn't turn his head to ask.

"What do you think of the Melox army?"

As soon as the voice fell, the Merlots army quickly formed a formation with a small square formation of ten thousand people. The most important thing in the Merlot infantry drill is the formation, so the unified army showed the ten-party alliance what it means to be a heroic army.

A team of more than 200,000 people quickly set up the plastic surgery. Maybe they couldn't walk neatly, but whether it was turning or moving, they could guarantee the integrity of the array.

The speed of movement may not be fast, but the speed of the formation is surprisingly fast, without the need for officers to shout loudly, and under the leadership of the standard bearer, they quickly enter the positions of their respective troops.

"The most powerful army in the Kingdom of Cleveland!" The person behind him was silent for a while, before suddenly speaking.

hiss!

Kira gasped, and he looked at the man behind him in disbelief.

This man is Char Aznable, the military god recognized by the Maxim Federation.

"I came this time just to see the Melo Army." Shaar held the binoculars to look at the formation of the United Army, and quickly noticed the position of the Melo Army.

"The six army formations in the center!" Xia Ya said lightly.

Kira nodded, he didn't need a telescope, he could see clearly with just one eagle eye spell.

"The soldiers in the six army formations are a little different." Kira is not a professional soldier, and can only judge the strength of the army from the equipment.

After all, only the elite have the latest equipment.

"It is indeed different. This should be the Melo Field Army that the intelligence said." Shaar put down the binoculars and said solemnly.

"These are the elites of a hundred battles. It may not be possible to fight one against a hundred, but in large-scale battles, if you skillfully use the coordination of the army formation, it is no problem to fight against ten with one. This time you are in trouble." Shaar said playfully. .

Kira's face turned livid.

He had also heard about the combat effectiveness of the Melo army, but he was only hearing it, and it was unconvincing, but from the mouth of Shaar, the military god, it was probably true.

"Compared to the Federation's Ranger Legion, which one is stronger and weaker?" Kira asked subconsciously.

The truly elite ace unit of the Maxim Federation also earned a great reputation in the Sino Continent.

"It's hard to say, after all, I haven't seen the battle of the Melo army with my own eyes." Shaar dragged his chin and said.

Kira snorted immediately, and dared to comment on the number one strong army without seeing you.

"The confidence that comes from you."

Shaar pointed to his head, not caring about Kira's sarcasm.

The Yamato family is one of the top nobles of the Maxim Federation, mainly controlling power in the financial field. The Aznable family is not bad either, controlling nearly 60% of the Maxim Federation's army, and the largest arms supply The Shangzeon Armaments Chamber of Commerce was established by the Aznable family.

"It's started." Shaar stopped Kira's cynicism and cast his eyes on the battlefield.

The Ten-Party Alliance saw that the United Army had set up its formation and sent ten thousand troops to attack.

Aslan watched the Tenth Army approaching barely maintaining their formation, his eyes were full of disdain, and he gestured to the standard bearer next to him, and the standard bearer quickly issued a semaphore.

In the Melo Infantry Manual, semaphore is a very important lesson, especially for officers, it is a key assessment topic. Even if you are brave and good at fighting, if the semaphore is not good enough, you will definitely not be able to take up a full-time job.

In the past, many people did not understand the reason for this, but now they do.

The formation changed rapidly, and the Merlot crossbow has now become the standard weapon of the United Army.

The two rows of sword and shield soldiers in front became one row, and the crossbowmen quickly passed by, setting up a formation in front.

Gawain rode his horse to the front of the crossbowmen, and quickly estimated the enemy's distance.

"Forty-five degrees! Throwing."

Today's Merlot war crossbow has been equipped with a clip system. The buckle is divided into two parts. When the bowstring is in place and the bowstring is stuck, it also lifts the crossbow arrow in the clip.

The first three arrows of the magazine are generally equipped with drooping curved arrowheads.

puff!

The sound of neat crossbow arrows sounded, and nearly one hundred thousand crossbow arrows flew out of the unified army array, falling like waves.

The sky looked dense.

"Raise the shield!" The commander of the Tenth Army shouted hastily.

It's just that there are still a large number of unlucky people who were shot by the crossbow arrows, especially those soldiers equipped with simple wooden shields, who were directly shot through by the crossbow arrows.

There were three layers of projectile waves, and when the three waves of crossbow arrows stopped, only soldiers from the Tenth Army watched from under their shields.

The three waves of crossbow arrows killed nearly ten thousand soldiers from the ten-party army. It can be seen that its precision and lethality shocked the commander of the ten-party coalition army.

He knew very well that if a few more waves of arrows rained according to the attack efficiency of the unified army, their probing troops would collapse.

"Raise the shield to meet the enemy! Form a shield formation and advance slowly." The commander shouted.

The coalition forces of the ten directions were tightly packed together, advancing slowly under the cover of the shield array, occasionally only a few unlucky ones were shot by the crossbow arrows passing through the gap.

Aslan made a gesture again, and the semaphore quickly gave instructions. After the crossbowmen shot the last bolt, they quickly tore apart to the two wings, letting out the five-company bed crossbow behind them.

The commander of the ten-party coalition army turned pale when he saw the five-company bed crossbow.

"Dragon-slaying crossbow! Those guys actually brought the dragon-slaying crossbow to the battlefield."

Shhhhh...

The five-company bed crossbow is not like a crossbow arrow, the sound of breaking wind rang out with a terrifying scream.

The crossbow arrows of the bed crossbow shot into the enemy's formation, and the powerful force directly shot through the front shield hand, and it took five or six people to fly away before stopping.

The wave of bed crossbows had just ended, and the sound of war crossbows piercing the sky sounded again. Without the cover of shieldmen, the soldiers behind them instantly became live targets.

The ten-party coalition forces fell down in pieces like harvesting wheat.

The crossbow arrows of the unified army seemed to be free of money, wave after wave, making the nobles of the ten-party coalition army watching the battle frightened.

As if there was no end in sight, the rain of arrows kept falling, and the team of ten thousand people finally collapsed, one by one running back desperately.

Duke Jibril's face was livid, and he shouted loudly: "I will cut down all the soldiers who escaped first."

Even if they lost the first battle today, it turned into a big defeat.

This was a great blow to the morale of the coalition forces. If it was the past, he would have executed all these soldiers.

But not now, ten thousand teams belong to ten lords, at most he can only deal with the deserters under his command, and has no right to deal with other deserters.

The supervising team rushed out immediately, and cleaned up the deserters running in the front one by one, killing thousands of people before the fleeing soldiers regained their senses and quickly ran to the sides.
