Chapter 77 White Horse Battle Array

Day 3.

The army officially entered the wilderness area, and the scouts brought back a lot of news, and the adventurers scattered were more or less captured. Some time ago, many caravans were attacked and robbed, and the property was lost to the hands of the wild creatures. After a battle, they seized them as spoils. Soren successively killed some enemies, and the killing experience he obtained accumulated to 3,000 points, but the two of them didn't get much Jindler.

"There is a village in front." Sauron looked at the gradually familiar road and said to the half-elf ranger beside him: "I passed here some time ago and was attacked by the lizard people. I don't know if they have moved, but now it should have become a gathering place for the lizard people."

If there was no migration, I'm afraid everyone in that village would die?

He made a gesture to Yas on the side, and then the two of them bent down along the grass. There was a small river next to the village, and the lizard people liked to be close to places with water. When they could see the wooden bars of the village from afar, the half-elf ranger took out a cylinder from his pocket and rotated it, then placed it in front of him to observe in front of him.

Monoculars?

Sauron stopped and waited for the other party to observe the results.

"It seems that it has been occupied by the lizard man." Yas handed the monocular to Soren, who was beside him, and said casually: "A gadget made from alchemy, 10 pieces of Jindler."

Glass is a common thing, but pure glass is very troublesome to make.

The telescope is a gadget of alchemy products. If there is no spell rune, it is worth about 10 Jindlers. If some special effects are blessed, the price may be as high as hundreds of Jindlers. Soren picked up the telescope and observed it. He easily saw the figure of the Lizardman guards on the sentry tower. The village was much broken, and the Lizardman built many simple sheds on the burned house.

"There are quite a lot!" Sauron put down his telescope and handed it back to Yas, and said in a deep voice: "We two probably can't eat it, so go back and submit the information."

The half-elf ranger nodded, put away his telescope and walked back.

At least 50% of the chance of winning in a wilderness adventure will only take action. An experienced adventurer like him will not easily try too difficult challenges. After all, there is only one life, and it is useless to win if a person dies and is disabled. If you walk too much at night, you will always encounter ghosts. If you are too risky, you will sooner or later kill yourself. You cannot run corpses here. If you lack arms and legs in battle, you must pay a very high price to recover.

The two of them quickly touched back and submitted the information in front.

Soon, a big man with an officer-like appearance came to them. He was wearing a full-body armor, holding a steel shield in his hand, equipped with refined long swords, leather gloves, steel wrist guards and crossbows. Behind him was a team of 50-man White Horse City Guards, uniformly equipped with iron armor, iron shields, short swords and light crossbows. There were fewer archers in White Horse City, but there were many crossbowmen, and light infantry could be used as crossbowmen.

In addition, he also brought a gray-robed wizard. He could not tell the profession level, but it should be above the second level.

"Captain of the 37th Infantry Regiment of the White Horse City Guard, Hanks." The bearded man nodded at Sauron and said in a deep voice: "The above sent me to clean up the lizard men."

Because of frequent combat, there is basically no possibility of slack in the army in this world.

Perhaps their military discipline will become corrupt, and many people within will fall into the evil camp, but their combat effectiveness will not decrease too much.

Hanks is a person who acts harshly and decisively. After gathering his soldiers, he immediately asked Sauron to lead the way. Regular warriors are basically advanced pros, most of whom have level three or above warrior levels. Hanks in front of him is probably able to reach the second level, but not exceed the third level. As a warrior in the army, his equipment is better than many adventurers. Although he does not have any extraordinary equipment, his armor is better than many low-level extraordinary equipment.

About an hour or two later.

The group returned to the vicinity of the village. Hanks ordered the soldiers to rest for a while, and then said to Soren and others beside him: "Can they kill their sentinels?"

Sauron and Yas nodded and touched each other from the side.

The half-elf ranger took out the longbow, made a gesture to the right, and then quietly climbed up a tree. The longbow had a long range, and the sentry was mainly handed over to him to solve it. Sauron escaped into the shadows, sneaked along the grass, and took out the powerful crossbow. What he needed to deal with were the two lizard men at the door.

The army was still hidden in the woods hundreds of meters away, and everyone was waiting quietly.

Say whisper!

Several sounds of breaking through the air sounded one after another, and the half-elf ranger shot and killed the guard beside the alarm bell, while Sauron used his powerful crossbow to kill the sentinels near the gate.

"go ahead!"

When he saw the lizard man on the arrow tower fall down, Hanks immediately put on his helmet, his whole body wrapped tightly, and said in a deep voice: "Witch. Crack the door!"

The gray-robed wizard's expression was obviously a little dissatisfied, and he seemed to dislike this way of command.

But he still chanted the spell quickly, and then a stone golem weighing about half a ton appeared out of thin air. The stone golem advanced with heavy steps. The White Horse City Guard behind dispersed, held the iron shield in front of him, and began to trot and sprint. The group was moving very quickly. When they approached 150 meters in front of the village gate, the White Horse City Guard blocked the shield one meter long and half a meter wide and took out the light crossbow.

There was a panic sound in the village, and the lizardmen soon discovered the enemy's attack, and archers immediately climbed up the arrow tower.

Bang bang bang!

More than ten arrows were shot out in succession, and the White Horse City Guards did not slow down at all. The shield effectively blocked the enemy's attack.

The large stone golem didn't care about this level of damage at all. She walked directly in front and smashed heavily at the village gate. With the rumbling sound, the wooden gate had been broken by the stone golem before it could last for a minute.

"Fighting Formation." Hanks raised the steel shield, slowed down a little, and shouted: "White Horse Tactics."

The guards of fifty people were divided into ten small square formations. Three infantry raised their shields, drew their swords and started charging. The two soldiers behind continued to load crossbow arrows and shot at the lizard man in front of them. Hanks raised his shield and launched a charge with a loud shout. Even though he was wearing armor, he reached the speed of 100 meters of sprint. He rushed directly into the village and smashed a lizard man warrior head-on.

The wizard stayed behind and had no intention of taking action, and even the stone golem remained in place.

The White Horse Guard quickly took down the village gate. After killing three lizard men in succession, Hanks retreated back into the infantry phalanx, and then shouted: "Reorganize the formation."

Lizard men fell one after another, and the White Horse Guard raised the shield and advanced steadily. The formation strictly maintained a small square formation, and did not pursue the enemy's panic and retreat. The light infantry equipped with the shield covered the two wings. While blocking the shield, they cooperated with the assassination of the dagger. The soldiers behind kept firing with crossbow arrows. Occasionally, someone was caught and quickly dragged to the rear by his comrades. Hanks was also shot several arrows, but they had no effect on his whole body armor. He picked up the crossbow and shot it back, then raised the shield to protect his head.

After the initial panic, the Lizardman warriors had gathered.

The archers greatly reduced the lethality of these enemies equipped with iron armor and shields, and the advanced lizardman warriors in the rear roared and rushed up.

"Defensive formation." Hanks raised the steel shield and roared: "Charge! Shield strike!"

The white horse guards on all sides began to gather, and the light infantry also lowered the crossbow arrows. They raised their shields and began to advance in a horizontal array. When the distance was closer to thirty meters, everyone roared and then launched a sudden charge in front. The soldiers protected the shields on the front and directly rushed towards the lizardman who was rushing towards them.

Bang bang bang bang!

The muffled sounds echoed one after another, and the soldiers covering the flank began to shrink their formation, forming a shield formation with ten people in a row. When coordinating the attack of the lizard men, they used a dagger to assassinate the enemy with a dagger. The warriors of the lizard men fell to the ground like cutting wheat. The damage of the dagger was not enough to be fatal. Many lizard men were stabbed and smashed. The shield warriors in the front line were still advancing slowly, and the light infantry in the rear began to finish the attack, assassinating the enemy who had not yet died.

The warriors in the fifty-man square formation were like a city wall, blocking the lizardman's counterattacks one after another.

There were dozens of lizard men's corpses on the ground, but the fifty-man formation was still unmoved. Although three or four were injured and retreated, the formation was still not panicked at all. It did not retreat because of the enemy's fierce attack, nor did it pursue because of the enemy's retreat. It was just like a wall, pushing the lizard men in front of him into the dead corners of the village little by little.

Sauron's figure circled around the side, and the half-elf ranger quickly met. He pulled out the bone-clearing knife and glanced at the back and said: "The guards in White Horse City have trained shield blocking since the beginning of the militia and cooperated with the dagger to assassinate. The Lizardman's attack of this level cannot break their phalanx. We circled around from the side and found a way to kill the Lizardman's leader."

drink!

A loud shout came from behind, and the 50-man warriors roared at the same time, and they would pause for every thirty steps forward. Although the number was only one-third of the opponent's, it forced hundreds of lizard men to retreat little by little. Any attacker who rushed over was either assassinated head-on or shot to death by crossbow arrows. After each attack, the shield formation was not shaken at all, and only the corpses of more than ten lizard men were left on the ground.

The number of archers is getting smaller and smaller. Light infantry with iron armor and helmets and shields plays the lizardman archers while shooting frontally.

"Hand Axe!"

Perhaps being forced to go crazy, a very strong lizardman warrior roared and led more than a dozen similar people to pounce from the side, trying to break the infantry phalanx from the side where the defense was slightly weaker. Hanks also roared and took out a small hand axe from the back, which was less than twelve centimeters long. He turned around in his hand and threw it directly forward. In the infantry phalanx, there were more than twenty obviously well-trained warriors who took out a hand axe from behind and threw it out.

Bang bang bang bang!

The lizardman rushing over fell to the ground halfway, and the lizardman warrior who rushed to the front was hit by five flying axes on the spot, but he died without even putting one of the farts.

The morale of the Lizardman finally collapsed, and some soldiers had already begun to escape due to fear.

It was less than fifteen minutes since the front attack broke through the village gate. The White Horse Guard advanced 500 steps forward and killed more than one hundred lizard men. Only less than seven of them were injured, and most of them were shot by arrows. No enemy broke through their formation on the front attack. Some stupid lizard men jumped into the square formation and were assassinated instantly before they landed.

This is simply a massacre!

A ruthless massacre of the mob by regular troops.
