Roman Empire of Total War
Chapter 660: "·The Battle of Breakout · Eighteen"
Skepticism is cheap and barren. The skepticism possessed by a person who is closer to the truth than before and clearly understands the limitations of his intellectual construction is important and fruitful. This skepticism only multiplies the value of a certain discovery, but does not reduce its value.
——Erwin Schrödinger (Austrian physicist, one of the founders of quantum mechanics)
The Marquis of Longdestede can step by step from the ordinary soldiers of the Imperial Army to the commander-in-chief of the Marquis today. He still has a very good control of his emotions; the grief and sorrow in the previous moment becomes his rate in the next second. The force of the army desperately attacking.
In front of the passage, there is Marquis Ronde Stede and hundreds of thousands of elite masters. Bai Feng does not need to be distracted at all; now Bai Feng needs to do is to personally command the personal guards and reserve soldiers to cover other long-term battles. The retired generals withdrew from the battle.
At this time, the defense line was still built between the passage and the fortress to resist the assault of the Orc army. It was the city defense soldiers under the command of Dambrosio and Bella; the 60,000 city defense troops were elite. After nearly one hour of fierce fighting, the remaining soldiers Less than fifty thousand.
The soldiers of the City Defense Army are all veterans who survived the battle between blood and fire; but their weaponry and tactical concepts are still very different from the soldiers of the 7th and Assault Wings. The casualties of the orcs are naturally much worse.
In fact, Dambrocio and Bella have been able to lead the army to fight so hard for a long time, which has made Bai Feng take a look at them. In all fairness, this kind of disparity in the battle, replaced by any other general, can not do better than Dambrocio How much better with Bella.
The great military commander needs a large enough stage to play; Hannibal has Spain as the foundation, Caesar has the support of Rome in the early stage, and Gaul as the rear, and their success is built on a broad stage. Up.
At present, the fourth main battlefield outside Cyprus is to limit the stage of each general to a very small range; within such a range, the generals have little room for themselves to play, they can only do so in a limited space. Probably use solid tactics.
After leading the Cretan archers and artillery gunmen into the tunnel, Bai Feng immediately let the three teams of Cretan archers shoot at the orc army on both sides of the tunnel; the twelve teams of artillery gunmen were dismantled by Bai Feng Used by several small-scale troops.
The five teams of iron artillerymen lined up in line, using the seventh wing to build the shield wall defense line, directly shooting the orc warriors outside the shield wall defense line; there are also five teams of artillery gunmen to assault the wing The shield wall defense line was used for cover, and the same volley was carried out.
The reason why Bai Feng only left two teams of artillery gunmen for the defense of the rear of the channel is because the width of the channel is too narrow to allow more iron gunners to deploy; the lateral deployment of the two teams of iron gunmen , Is already the limit that the channel can accommodate.
After Gabitos led the Spartan heavy infantry and the Macedonian Royal Pikemen to the passage, the three Spartan heavy infantry built the first line of defense for the long pike outside the entrance of the passage; followed by two more by the Royal Pikemen. Dao long line of defense.
On both sides of the Spartan heavy infantry defense line and the Royal Long Spears defense line, it is a flanking defense line composed of two teams of Spartan heavy infantry; the last team of Spartan heavy infantry, stays behind the three defense lines, as a whole defense line maneuver Force exists.
The defense line of Gabitos has just been built, and Bai Feng sent the warlord cavalry beside him to give orders to Dan Brosio and Bella, so that they immediately organized the generals of the city defense army to gradually withdraw from the battle and withdraw. Into the channel.
It is not an easy task for the City Defense Forces in the anxious battle to withdraw from the battle. The violent orc warriors will not let the City Defense Forces retreat; the helpless Dambrosio and Bella have to fight And retreat.
The crazy pursuit of the orc warriors is a powerful opponent that is difficult to defend for the retreating city defense generals; some of the soldiers who first retreated under Bella's command were even surrounded by the assault flanks of thousands of orc warriors.
Bella, who was unable to rescue the soldiers with no force, had to endure painfully to give up the rescue of these soldiers and turned to other soldiers more carefully; more than three thousand city defense soldiers were besieged by the orcs, but this was impossible for Bai Feng Living power to give up.
The War Cavalry equipped with Level 4 magic suits, after the blessing of the magic suit, although the actual combat effectiveness is not comparable to the powerful armored cavalry, but it will not be much worse than the partner cavalry. Their charge is still very much for the orc warrior Tough.
So, while Bella chose to abandon this part of the city defense generals, Bai Feng dispatched the war cavalry around him to rescue these city defense generals; for this reason, a long line of defense for the retreat had been set aside and had to give up another channel .
The cavalry warriors who roared out directly launched a charge to the orc army that surrounded the generals of the city defense; the total number of orc warriors, which was only about 5,000, could not stop the flanks of thousands of war cavalry, and the casualties of the orcs rose straight up.
It is not only the soldiers of the City Defense Army who have been fighting hard for a long time, but also the orc warriors of the orc army have also fought so far; therefore, the rush of the warlord cavalry quickly defeated the orc army that surrounded them.
After successfully rescuing these city defense soldiers, the warfare cavalry did not chase down the defeated orc warriors, but took the orc army that pursued the city defense troops to retreat the soldiers as their new targets.
The impactful and powerful War Cavalry helped the City Defense Army retreat. The retreat of Dambrosio and Bella became significantly easier and the retreat speed became faster; until all the City Defense Army generals withdrew into the passage, and the Warlord Cavalry Only then slowly withdrew from the battlefield.
Less than 800 soldiers who rushed to rescue the City Defense Army’s 1,000 guard cavalry, and finally withdrew Bai Feng’s side, and more than two hundred war guard cavalry died, did not make Bai Feng feel much distressed, but the loss of more than two hundred sets of level 4 magic equipment Not a small number.
Fortunately, there are also Ivan and his shadow killers next to Bai Feng. Their latest mission is to retrieve the magic suit worn by the fallen governor cavalry on the battlefield; the part-time mission is to find an opportunity to assassinate middle and low-level officers in the orc army.
Not to mention the completion of the mission of the Shadow Killers. After the War Cavalry withdrew along the vacant channel of the lance defense line, Gabittus immediately commanded the soldiers of the lance defense line to close the channel.
More than 45,000 city defense soldiers withdrew smoothly to the passage, which is a good takeover for everyone; Dambrosio and Bella wanted to thank Bai Feng, but Bai Feng did not have time to talk to them, just let They took a short break before moving forward.
The orc army was reorganized, and about 50,000 orc warriors were assembled again. They launched an attack on the long line of defense built by the three Spartan heavy infantry; when they approached the near line, the ready iron gun The gunmen took the lead in shooting.
The iron cannonmen of 120 soldiers per team were deployed by Bai Feng into a small battle phalanx of three in a row of forty men; when the forty ironmen in the first row fired, they would Immediately squat down to make room for the second row of artillery gunmen.
While the second-row iron artillerymen were shooting, the first-row iron artillerymen were loading ammunition, and the third-row iron artillerymen were preparing for shooting; wait until the second-row iron artillerymen fired After that, they will also crouch down and let the third row of iron artillerymen shoot.
