It's not a problem to wait like this, so the group of cavalry can only continue to let the horses move forward, and at the same time go around horizontally, observing the shape of the enemy's position and the distribution of soldiers while screaming strangely. But unfortunately, they still found nothing, because everyone was hiding in the trenches, and he couldn't tell how many enemies there were. On the contrary, the things wrapped in camouflage cloth in the center and rear of the position looked mysterious. …

"what to do?"

The soldier next to him was also exhausted from shouting, and in desperation asked the officer while pouring water. The captain gritted his teeth and said, "Then try to get closer! Keep scolding! Let them reveal their numbers!"

After finishing speaking, he rode his horse forward, and the other soldiers in the same company hurriedly followed-this group of scouting cavalry was originally from horse thieves. The identity of Bai recruited them for reward. But now seeing that the enemy is not moving, this group of guys who usually bully the weak and fear the hard will become more daring, brandishing sabers and starting to gradually approach the position, from a distance of more than 100 meters to 80 meters, 70 meters and even some people Swipe across from a position of fifty meters.

There was still no response from the trenches.

This made them more courageous, and the team of more than 20 people even started to draw their bows directly at this distance, trying to shoot the soldiers in the trench. However, the soldiers in the front row ignored their attacks at all. When they bent down casually, the arrows could only poke at the trenches without causing any damage at all.

This group of viper cross cavalry was not yet arrogant enough to directly attack the position, but when they entered a horizontal line 40 meters in front of the front line, there was a sudden movement inside the position.

"preparation--"

"shooting!"

The sound of the machine crossbow being fired suddenly came from the trench, and the captain who was parading in front of the formation suddenly shouted: "Hurry up and hide!"

They were skilled in riding. The twenty or so people were running sideways, but at this time they all leaned to the side of the saddle collectively—this is the so-called "hiding in the stirrups". When faced with arrow rain, they often use this method to avoid arrow damage.

The scout cavalry who came out to call for battle was a high-risk occupation, so they were also mentally prepared to be shot by Liu Ya. But they obviously forgot a fact... they are not only 100 meters away, but only 40 meters away from the front line.

At this time, the soldiers using machine crossbows in the forward position were all within 60 meters of them, so this wave of mass shooting was easier for them than usual shooting training.

Hundreds of arrows landed on the slow cavalry and horses on the spot.

At this moment, the machine crossbow produced by Elson showed its full power... When the royal crossbowmen used the foot-operated crossbow, Elson's machine crossbow had been updated to the level of the hand-cranked pulley. This means that the energy storage of the crossbow arms of Elson's heavy crossbow is more than three times that of ordinary hard crossbows.

At a distance of about 60 meters, these crossbow bolts are as powerful as spears in the hands of infantry—the arrow-proof blankets on cavalry horses did not play any role, and the amazingly long crossbow bolts killed more than a dozen horses on the spot. The nails pierced the body, some exaggerated, and even shot through the people beside the horse!

Of the twenty-three knights, more than half fell on the battlefield. Most of the people were thrown out because the horse fell to the ground suddenly, and some were directly crushed to death by the rolling body of the horse. The lucky few were still galloping, but the crossbow bolts inserted into the horse almost penetrated its body, ran out, and fell to the ground in pain not too far away.

This team did not expect to encounter such a powerful arrow attack. After this round of concentrated shooting, the entire position returned to its previous calm, and there was no sign of being about to charge. The three surviving cavalrymen struggled to get up, gritted their teeth and cut off the crossbow bolts on their bodies, trying to escape step by step.

Such a target is really not difficult for the highly accurate Elson crossbow. A small team got the order from the company commander, stood up and aimed directly at the shooting. Three people shot one arrow, and there were only a pile of corpses left in front of the position.

Such a scene was seen by the cavalry of Enrique City who were approaching from a distance, and they who had already approached 200 meters immediately retreated to the distance. The whole army from the Viper Cross was wiped out, and when the news was sent back to the Viper Crusade, Pope Dai Ze narrowed his eyes.

Such things are not uncommon on the battlefield. It can only be said that the leading knight is too careless. But one team failed to bring back any news, which finally made Dazzle feel a little uncomfortable. At this moment, the infantry array of Viper Cross has entered two kilometers away from the Efta position. Bishops are coordinating the entire team, and the "fang chariot" hidden in the team has also taken off the original cover for camouflage. fishing nets and rags.

Although it can be called a "chariot", this thing is actually a trebuchet with an exquisite structure.

The craftsmen of the Moss Kingdom improved the structure of the trebuchet. Compared with the bulky siege equipment originally used by the Karen Kingdom, the "Poison Fang Chariot" only needs three people to operate. When there is no livestock to pull it, four people can easily handle this lightweight chariot weighing only more than 400 kilograms.

This kind of "catapult" has a range of one kilometer because of its exquisite structure, although it is small in size, -->>

The disadvantage is that it cannot project larger stones, but the advantage is also obvious: the rate of fire is fast.

As long as the operation is proficient, it can project 2-4 rounds of special live ammunition in one minute. The reason why it is called "fangs" is that the "cannonballs" it uses can release highly poisonous poisonous mist after fragmentation.

Viper Cross began to manufacture these stone bombs two years ago, but due to poor efficiency, the production progress has been very slow. However, in this battle, Daize brought all the trump cards with him, in order to be able to make meritorious deeds with one blow!

"Enrique City is planning to defend to the death, and they have no intention of going out of the city to fight."

An elder next to him analyzed the situation in a low voice, Daize nodded and replied: "Charles II is not brave enough after all, but this is our opportunity."

The gates of Enrique's city were closed tightly. If they were going to fight outside the city, the infantry and cavalry should have been pulled out by now. But now there are only three scattered cavalry squads cruising back and forth on the periphery, and Dazzle, who has rich combat experience, knows what this means.

He looked up at the peaceful Efta position, narrowed his eyes and said: "The team is starting to rest now, and we are close to one kilometer at noon. We are in the upper wind, so after the battle starts, let the 'fang chariot' bombard directly That's the position! All the cavalry are ready to chase after them, it is estimated that these guys don't know how they died."

Dazzle is very confident about this, because the power of gas bombs is more terrifying than direct spell bombardment. The trenches can withstand the impact and flames, but they cannot stop the spreading poisonous fog. The "fang chariot" can definitely be called a "weapon of mass destruction" in this kind of war. Efta's army is only 10,000 people, as long as the poisonous gas bombs are projected In the position, within five minutes, this war can enter the final stage.

"Your Majesty, Charles II must have a wonderful expression at that time."

"That's natural. I hope that he will not forget to agree to our conditions when he is pleasantly surprised."

Daze said and clenched the scepter in his hand: "I really hope that the Duke of Efta is here, so that the scepter can be taken back..."

"The Viper's Kiss" is the most painful scar in Dai Ze's heart. The scepter that has been painstakingly awakened has become the wedding dress of the Rose Cross. This feeling makes him want to vomit blood every time he thinks about it.

But as long as these current enemies are defeated, the scepter will be in his pocket sooner or later!

Thinking of this, Daize waved his hand and issued an order - the transmission of complex military orders in the Viper's Cross system is more efficient and quicker than ordinary noble troops. Soon, hundreds of "fang chariots" in the team began to line up horizontally Open, the infantry forms a protective formation. The cavalry troops gathered on both sides, and the heavily armed saint army knights looked at the position ahead with piercing eyes, as if they had seen the scene of the enemy fleeing.

The wooden wheels of the fang chariot were "creaking", and the carefully packaged black gas bombs swayed on the wooden cart. The saints in white uniforms kept shouting scriptures and slogans. The team of people is marching forward mightily...

Noon is approaching.

On the Efta position named "Fort" by Roddy, Soderol had already held the final mobilization meeting with the battalion commanders. Although everything was ready, the young men in the staff team were still measuring the distance and the number of troops between Enrique City and Viper Crusade. They held the image just sent back by the Falcon in their hands, in which, the distribution of troops in Enrique City was clear at a glance.

"Commander, such a war will definitely make us famous in history!"

"Perhaps... it's also infamy."

Looking at the city of Enrique facing outside the tent, Suo Deluoer said with some inexplicable emotion: "The result of such a battle is actually the same as that of a face-to-face charge. But such an ending, for them, may mean fear. Make it thicker."

The staff are also under a little pressure in their hearts, because this kind of war concerns the lives and deaths of tens of thousands of people, and there is no way to calm down in another body. One of them whispered, "Commander, let's stay in the bunker."

"Oh, that's the rule. Let's go."

This war was different from previous operations. Soderol ordered all soldiers to stay in the bunker when they did not receive an attack order. Although the soldiers are strange, obeying orders has become an instinct. This iron army has now completely become a veritable "war machine", and will only faithfully execute the orders of the commander.

Soderol and his staff have all put on their armor, and they also have a protective scroll on their bodies. This is the standard equipment for everyone above the company commander. After walking out of the central tent, you can see the left and right columns from this angle. Hundreds of spar gun barrels that were uncovering camouflage camouflage, and trenches extending layer by layer from the front position.

The steps dug out with a shovel went all the way down, and Soderol stepped into the trench corridor, but before entering, he looked back at a corner of the camp area—there was only a circular open space, but Soderore He gave a military salute there.

After that, he stepped down and entered the underground command room with magical lighting.
