Chapter 876 Cannon Fire, Armor and Long Sword

But Bucky has seen bloody scenes before.

He doesn't feel any fear right now, with his arms hanging down and his eyes looking around, everyone is in this relatively relaxed posture, this is because they are used to trying to conserve their energy before fighting. Otherwise, the enemy's arms will be sore before they come, and it will be a terrible thing to fight.

The soldiers of the nobles have completed their formation and started marching this way...

Bucky felt that the lords in front of him who were about to rush over seemed to have different opinions. Some people wanted to outflank them as they walked, but because of this, they were squeezed together with other people's troops. And the people facing the middle gradually became scattered during the march. If it weren't for the upright noble flags trying to maintain the formation, the stumbling infantry would probably be in chaos soon.

During this process, Bucky still didn't move, and he didn't turn his head. He just felt that the originally nervous mood in his heart calmed down a lot for no reason. When the enemy in front entered the range of 500 meters, the command of the company commanders came from the rear of the team, and then these orders were passed down step by step, becoming the shout of the platoon leader in the center of the team: "Draw your sword! Raise your shield!"

There was a sound of the sword being unsheathed. At this moment, the cold blood seemed to be ignited directly. When the round shield was lifted forward and the center of gravity of the body sank slightly, Bucky felt the back row of his companions on the ground. The spear on his shoulder, and the heavy breathing of his comrades under the helmet.

He turned his face sideways, and the spar inlaid on the charging spear was clearly visible, and there were incomprehensible magic patterns all over the side. And when he turned his gaze back, the cavalry in front had already started to sprint!

At this moment, a series of dense explosions sounded from behind, Bucky squinted his eyes, and there were countless phantoms passing by above his head, and then a large burst of flames exploded in the cavalry team instantly

The familiar scene was played out again, and Bucky saw those well-dressed knights yelling and flying into the sky, turning into pieces of meat on the ground, while the infantry team that had already started charging seemed to be frightened by this scene, appeared There was a brief stagnation.

But then Bucky focused his eyes, because he saw orange-red parabolas appearing behind those flames, and when he saw that it was a fireball, he and the surrounding soldiers changed their colors...

"It's a magician"

"Spell defense action! Raise the shield!"

The squad leader's roar interrupted their words. Hearing this command, Bucky and all the soldiers around him instinctively raised their shields, squatted down completely, and shrunk themselves into a ball like defending against arrows...

"Boom boom boom!"

The explosion sounded in front of me,

These fireballs were obviously not accurate enough, and most of them landed in the open space in front of the position. But there are still a few of them smashed into the team. Bucky was in the first row, and a fireball landed two meters in front of him. The violent airflow and vibration made him who was kneeling on the ground feel as if he had been hit head-on by a giant hammer, and his body fell directly to the ground.

However, the shield produced by Elson Military Factory was extremely strong. When he was pulled up by his teammates, apart from feeling that the shield was a little hot, there were no unnecessary wounds on his whole body.

"Return to the team if you can still play! Hurry up!"

The squad leader's voice is a little hoarse, in fact, this is because his ears were temporarily deaf due to the explosion. Bucky's ears were buzzing. Although he couldn't hear clearly, he understood what he should do by seeing the other party's gestures. Picking up the long sword he had dropped on the ground, he quickly ran back to the original position and re-formed the shield wall with his comrades. When I looked up again, the artillery fire from the artillery company had already covered the magician who had just cast a spell on the other side...

The blue magic shield kept flashing, but after the third wave of artillery fire covered it, the fire light swallowed everything.

At this time, the enemy's cavalry has basically disintegrated, and the remaining infantry are moving forward by inertia. The two rounds of bombing obviously stopped their footsteps. The soldiers facing Bucky stood still in a daze, while the infantry on both sides continued to advance for 200 meters under the leadership of the surviving lord. , a wave of arrow rain appeared in front of them, all the soldiers continued to raise their shields to defend, the sound of "jingling" rang out, none of the powerful arrows could penetrate the solid shield, the soldiers waited silently for the rain of arrows In the past, when the order to "end the defensive posture" came, the enemy in front had already entered the range of fifty meters.

The rear artillery fire started the fourth round of bombardment, and the flames brought by the artillery shells fell on the position of the central army behind the enemy's formation, but because there were only ten artillery pieces, they were not powerful enough for "fire coverage", and the most powerful double-barreled artillery vehicle Because the fault stopped at the rear, the morale of these enemies was not completely destroyed, and they still launched a charge.

Forty meters, thirty meters... The dozen or so scattered cavalry at the front had no courage to charge because they were injured by the artillery bombardment. They had to bypass the infantry array formed by Bucky and his comrades. And the next moment, the charge came from behind

"Go! Go! Go! Rush over!"

The squad leader gave orders loudly, but this kind of charge was not rushed. Bucky raised his shield and turned sideways, with the dagger blade in his right hand draped forward from above the shield. , advancing step by step.

The shield wall composed of hundreds of round shields has an extremely strong visual impact. Every time you take a step, the friction sound of the armor will be connected together like the sea waves hitting the shore.

One step, two steps...

When they reached the third step, the comrades on both sides had already started to meet the enemy. The sound of weapons colliding with the shield became one, and the roar and wailing mixed together, making Bucky's muscles tense up.

"Kill! Kill! Kill!"

The enemies in the field of vision no longer had the previous hesitation, and they clearly understood that they could only fight head-on at this time, and the squad leader beside him no longer gave any orders at all, because every time the exercise reached this distance, what the infantry had to do There's only one thing: swing your weapon and slash all living creatures that stand in your way!

The noisy sound swallowed everything. Bucky took a deep breath, stared at the guy holding the ax directly in front of him, and started to accelerate forward

"Hey!"

The opponent instinctively raised the tomahawk, but the biggest disadvantage of this heavy weapon is that it is slow to gain momentum. Bucky kept this point in mind during training, so he hit the opponent's chest with his shield hard before the opponent's ax came down!

"Boom!"

Because of inertia, the ax still hit his back when it fell, but the whole body of metal armor looks light, but in fact it is extremely powerful in protection. After being hit like this, Bucky only tilted his body, but his movements were not affected. How much influence, but the opponent was hit by him and lost his balance, and he was in a state of stiffness. Seeing this, Bucky swung his short sword and slashed the enemy's neck fiercely!

This was the first time he had hacked a real person with a weapon, because his movements deformed so much when he was nervous, but the enemy was only wearing civilian clothes, and the sword went straight into the neck bone, blood splattered everywhere.

The other party fell to the side without even yelling. Bucky wanted to draw the sword, but found that the blade was stuck in the bones and muscles and could not be pulled out. . As a result, he heard a "boom" from the helmet at this time, and he swayed forward involuntarily. After he turned his head, he realized that someone was attacking him from behind.

The opponent was holding a dagger in his hand, but at this time the blade had been bent from the middle part to the side, obviously because it hit Bucky's helmet...

Bucky was startled in his heart, he lifted his foot and kicked the opponent to the ground. The enemy in front of him was too thin, and he kicked up lightly. Before Bucky went up to make up a sword, the comrade who was following up next to him had already stepped on it. On the other side's face...

"Rush over!"

Bucky heard their roars, twisted and moved on. After these two rounds of fighting, his body has fully entered the state. Facing those enemies who were trying to attack him, he found that he could easily block the opponent's attack as long as he raised his shield to hit it. And even if you encounter someone with tricky swordsmanship, the sturdy armor can slide the opponent's blade directly away. After he gritted his teeth and slashed seven people, he fell behind his teammates due to physical exertion. At this moment, he found that the edge of his short sword had curled up.

After stabbing a struggling enemy on the ground to death, Bucky stretched out his hand and hung it back to his waist, then drew out another spare dagger, swung it with a sword flower, and continued to move forward.

The Efta infantry were all equipped with two swords, one long and one short. Bucky trusted his short sword, which was slightly longer than a dagger, more than the messy and inferior gadgets of the enemy.

Panting heavily, he trotted forward, but then found that there were no enemies in front of him. All that can be seen in the field of vision are their own people wearing uniform armor. He tried his best to look forward. On the battlefield filled with the smell of burnt meat, there were only various groaning figures in embarrassment, and beyond the smog, there were enemies who collapsed and fled behind them...

"Three companies go to support the left wing! Keep up!"

The morale of the enemies in the central area collapsed the fastest because they had been bombarded directly, but the enemies on both sides had not yet completely retreated, and they were still in a stalemate. Bucky's ears still can't hear clearly, but he can see the company commanders with different armor styles making tactical gestures. When he saw the order, all he could think of was to execute it quickly. This was the instinctive reaction in the hearts of all soldiers.

Bucky turned his head and rushed to the left with his comrades, highlighting the importance of physical training at all times. After a high-intensity battle, soldiers in armor can still quickly transfer on the battlefield and immediately enter a new battle. Bucky tried his best to recall the content taught by the instructor during the training, adjusted his breathing, and then spontaneously formed a shield formation with the five comrades beside him, and tacitly inserted into the formation of the enemy on the left wing from the side!
