Chapter 278 This strategy is a bit damaging...

In a hall that looks like a crystal palace.

Yilor sat high on the throne, listening to the people below reporting on the military situation ahead.

"This is a letter from Lord Railton."

Railton:

"Greetings to you, my most respected King, the situation on the front line is a bit bad. In the enemy's city, there are not only magician-like figures, but also an alchemical weapon that can shoot thunder and lightning arrows.

There are thousands of such weapons, and the ancient tree people suffered heavy losses. The Third Infantry Legion lost nearly two thousand people. Not only that, the cunning and sinister enemies also used despicable assassination methods!

They killed Viscount Gallena, and Grand Captain Sarold was on the verge of death after being hit by a poisonous arrow. His subordinates fought back and killed two assassins, but they could not prevent this tragic fact...

I hope that His Majesty the King will give you a new royal order. My sword will be sharp and I will not be afraid of all difficulties. "

Yilor was lost in thought while stroking the red jade on the hilt of the King's Sword.

Magician?

Alchemical weapons?

Weird assassin...

He knows that he is a fantasy civilization, but his civilization has just entered the stage of contact with magic, according to the official level of the system.

Chris, the court mage who currently possesses the most powerful magic, is only at the second level of transcendence.

Next is Natasha, the high priest of the elves. Although her magic attack power is not high, her realm has reached the second level of extraordinary.

According to Railton's letter, the enemy's thunder and lightning arrows can reach thousands of people.

Let me ask, the power of this kind of thunder and lightning must be at least extraordinary, right?

Not to mention the rain of arrows shot by thousands of people at the same time.

This level of attack has far exceeded the scope of the second level of extraordinary.

If he wants to deal with it, he must add more means of long-range attacks. He cannot rely on the lives of melee soldiers. He can't afford it.

After thinking for a long time, Yiluoer slowly said: "Send the order and order the palace archmage to lead the mage team to the front line for support. In addition, order the high priest Natasha to go and treat Sarold's injuries.

Another two thousand elven archers, three thousand elven warriors, and one thousand legion guards were sent to the front line for support, and the baggage battalion was moved to the two siege tower teams! "

"Yes."

The herald bowed and bowed, then walked out of the hall.

Yilor looked at the herald's disappearing back and fell into deep thought.

It was obvious that he was in trouble this time.

For this reason, he planned to come up with a plan B.

If the siege fails, the system will determine the damage caused by the battle on both sides.

Secondly, let’s see who gains more and who loses more.

Supplies, cities, troops, population, etc. are all included.

Therefore, Yilor's plan B is to capture a town that is relatively easy to capture, abduct all its residents, and then rely on the bronze city wall to hold on until the invasion order is over.

He can't attack, but his defense is nearly invincible.

After relying on the defense of the city to gain some battle damage, the victory is almost 100% his.

But Yiluoer didn't want to do anything too extreme.

After all, after invading the other party, the coordinates of one's own civilization will be marked. If the other party uses the invasion order to take revenge, judging from the strength currently displayed by the other party, it will cause him a lot of trouble.

The assassins trained by the other side are really extraordinary. If the invasion war starts and the other side sends assassins directly to assassinate the officials in various cities in the kingdom, it won't be long before the domestic political system may collapse and suffer heavy losses.

This enemy is also the most troublesome.

Yilor shook his head. It seems that after returning, he will train more elven bodyguards.

With the powerful perception of the elves, they can detect the assassin in advance and prevent the assassin from assassinating or even counter-kill him.

After training, they are then sold to major nobles through employment, which is also a financial income.

Those nobles who already possess some vampire potential often plunder farmers' food and money in their territories.

Everyone is extremely rich.

……

……

Outside Dongmu County.

Zhou Tai personally led a thousand dragon cavalry troops towards the temporary military camp where the enemy was stationed.

A distance of several hundred meters can be reached in the blink of an eye.

"Fire arrows!"

Zhou Tai shouted loudly, and the cavalry began to fire a round of arrows around the military camp.

Then he immediately turned his horse around with the cavalry and galloped away for several hundred meters.

Railton in the military camp instantly became angry when he saw the enemy's provocation.

He rode his horse and ran to the camp of the Royal Court Knights and shouted angrily: "The enemy's cavalry has reached the door, why don't you go out to fight?

Where have you left the knight's courage and spirit! "

Railton's angry shout made a group of cavalrymen, many of whom were descendants of nobles, suddenly show angry expressions.

"Grand Captain Sarode is unconscious. Without his order, the Royal Knights cannot go to war without permission!"

A cavalryman wearing tight plate armor responded loudly.

After hearing this, Railton became angry and clenched his fists with both hands and said fiercely:

"Do you have to have the enemy's sword on your neck before you dare to draw it?"

After hearing this, the knights remained indifferent. They went into battle without the order of the grand leader. Who will bear the responsibility afterwards?

Whether or not the meritorious service will be obtained is another matter, but a punishment is definitely indispensable.

Seeing that the other party was still indifferent, Railton gritted his teeth angrily and left.

If the Knights of the Royal Court cannot command, can he still not command the others?

So, he immediately ran to the elven camp and began to issue orders to the elven archers to shoot back.

Rounds of arrows suddenly shot out from the camp.

Zhou Tai, who was several hundred meters away, and his cavalry were naturally unscathed.

What shocked him was that one-third of these arrows could shoot two hundred meters away.

Is this still a bow and arrow?

Is this a crossbow? !

However, looking at the enemy's delayed actions, he was already sure that the opponent's commander was indeed dead.

"Back to the city!"

He shouted loudly and rode into the city with his cavalry.

Railton watched the enemies running away outside the battlefield and couldn't help but sneer.

He thought that the enemy was scared away by the surging arrow rain.

Shortly after.

Zhou Tai returned to the county governor's house and told several people about the situation.

Yu Qian was immediately overjoyed.

"The Shadow Guard is indeed as extraordinary as the rumors say."

After he praised him, he discussed with everyone the strategy of leaving the city to meet the enemy.

"Attacking the main camp directly, there are too many enemy troops and there are cavalry, which will easily cut off the retreat of our troops leaving the city.

Therefore, it is best to lure the snake out of the hole. We first swallow a group of enemy troops. As for how to lure the enemy troops out, we have to think carefully. "

After the words fell, Yu Qian fell into deep thought.

There was silence in the county governor's mansion for a moment.

Zhou Tai suddenly had an idea.

He suddenly thought of a plan once made by Zhuge Liang, the Prime Minister of Shu.

So he spoke out: "I have a plan, would you like to hear it?"

Several people were slightly stunned and quickly urged him to speak quickly.

Zhou Tai chuckled and said: "This is a way to provoke the generals. Let people collect dozens of women's clothes in the city and send them over. The enemy will be furious."

Several people were stunned after hearing this.

Although this plan works... it has some drawbacks.

But in the end everyone agreed.

So he began to arrange his troops and tactics.

After a long time. Zhou Tai led his troops out of the city again.

All two thousand dragon cavalrymen followed them out of the city gate.

Zhou Tai ordered the two men to drag two boxes of women's clothes to the enemy camp.

"Remember, after you send something away, you ride back immediately."

"I'll wait for the order!"

After the words fell, the two cavalrymen held the box, got on their horses, and ran towards the enemy's military camp.

Railton, who was in the military camp, looked puzzled as he looked at the two cavalrymen who suddenly ran over.

"Is it possible that you are here to reconcile?"

He did not order the two cavalrymen to be shot, but wanted to see what the enemy was up to.

The two cavalrymen carefully came to the entrance of the military camp. After dropping the two boxes, they turned around and ran away.

Railton in the military camp was stunned for a moment.

"Open the box."

Railton ordered and backed away.

Two human soldiers ran up and carefully opened the box, and immediately saw the bright gauze skirt inside.

"Your Excellency Baron, these are women's clothes!"

The two soldiers were surprised.

After the words fell, the two of them couldn't help but look at Baron Railton's arms that were gradually shaking violently.

The originally white face began to gradually turn red.

“What a shame!!”

He spat out each word carefully.

In his chest, it seemed as if the anger was going to burn his internal organs to ashes!

These despicable and shameless enemies actually sent women's clothes to humiliate him!

What is this talking about?

Is she as timid as a woman? Weak and weak? No courage?

"Send these two boxes of clothes to me and send them to the camp of the Royal Court Knights!"

he shouted loudly.

The two soldiers were so frightened that they quickly picked up the box and walked quickly towards the camp of the Royal Court Knights.

...

Camp of the Knights of the Royal Court.

"Send troops! I will kill anyone who doesn't send troops!"

Railton said angrily.

He pointed at two boxes of women’s gauze skirts and shouted angrily:

"Did you see it! What is this! Women's clothes!"

"This is sent by those despicable and shameless enemies! This is to humiliate us and treat me as timid and weak as a woman!"

"His Majesty the King has sent Captain Sarold, Viscount Galenna and me to take charge of the command of this siege. Now that both of them are gone, it is up to me to take charge of the troops again."

"Those who disobey military orders now will be subject to military law! Behead!"

After some stern orders, coupled with the humiliation of the enemy, the Royal Court Knights, who regarded the knight's code as personal glory as life, could no longer bear it.

"Kill out! Let them see the most elite knights in the kingdom!"

"I want the iron hoof! to crush the gate of this city!"

Roars suddenly sounded continuously from the camp.

"Very good! Now under my command, everyone mount up and kill the enemy! I will make the enemy pay for their despicable behavior! Let our glory be bathed in blood!"

The words fell.

Everyone turned over and mounted their horses.

"Come out of camp and kill the enemy!"

A loud shout came from Baron Railton's mouth.

He was riding a high-grade war horse, followed by a torrent that looked like steel.

This group of cavalry, including their horses, is covered in armor. They are an elite group of knight heavy cavalry.

Each of them has superb riding skills. If it is on a flat area, it is no exaggeration to say that with less than 2,000 riders, they can overwhelm an infantry regiment of more than 10,000 people.

They not only symbolize the glory of the Royal Court, but are also one of the sharpest swords in the Royal Court.

Now this sharp blade will be under his command!

Railton's expression became excited.

Watching the enemy troops lined up in front, they waited motionless for the impact of the heavy cavalry.

He couldn't help but sneer and rejoice in his heart.

It was like seeing a passionate scene of enemy troops being overwhelmed.

One after another, broken limbs and arms were accompanied by pleasant screams. The enemy army collapsed and the city gate was breached...

If you perform meritorious service, you will be granted a fief.

Railton fantasized about the beauty for a moment, and couldn't help but slowly put the lance in his arm under his arm, preparing to penetrate the enemy's chest.

There were about two thousand cavalry in front of them, and two to three thousand infantry lined up behind them.

After seeing the enemy's situation clearly, Railton couldn't help but secretly cursed the enemy general's stupidity.

He had seen the combination of shield soldiers and spear soldiers.

I have also seen the combination of infantry and archers.

What the hell are cavalry and infantry?

Do the cavalry charge first, and then the infantry charge again?

What's the difference between taking off your pants and farting? has no meaning?

Just when the two armies were about to meet.

The cavalry under the city in front suddenly moved. They divided their troops into two groups and spread out, revealing the three thousand spearmen in the rear.

When Railton and many of the Royal Court Knights saw the array of pikemen revealed in front of them, not only did they not show fear, but they showed ridicule.

Perhaps ordinary cavalry would be restrained by spears, but not only did all of them wear armor, but their horses were also heavily armored.

Not only that, everyone's force value is comparable to that of an officer.

Do you want to resist their charge just by relying on the seemingly ordinary spearmen in front of you?

Then the cavalry will come back to surround them and annihilate them in one fell swoop?

idiot!

Just wishful thinking!

Railton sneered in his heart, and he gathered all his strength into his arms and chest, preparing to trample the spear army in front of him into a pulp!

"Prepare!"

At the same time, a voice came from the city wall that Railton and others could not understand.

Then he saw the densely packed four or five rows of spearmen in front of him slowly raising their spears.

Start with the first platoon of soldiers.

A buzzing vibration sound spread out in all directions like ripples falling into water.

Dazzling purple light suddenly gathered from the tip of the spear, and countless rioting thunder and lightning breaths were ferociously injected into the battlefield.

The charging cavalryman was suddenly shocked, and an ominous sense of crisis enveloped his whole body.

"No! This is also an alchemical weapon!"

Railton was instantly frightened. He wanted to issue an order to retreat, but how could it be so simple if the heavy cavalry was in a charging state and wanted to stop suddenly?

At this moment, the first row of seven to eight hundred spearmen instantly condensed a terrifying thunder light that seemed to be enough to annihilate everything.

hum-

There was an even more violent vibration, which stung the ears of enemies within a kilometer radius.

In Railton's eyes, huge thunder and lightning rays, mixed with lightning lines, instantly hit the charging cavalry team.

boom--

boom -

As the two collided together, bursts of fierce sounds dispersed around.

And then, the second, third, fourth...

The lightning was as majestic and huge as the blazing sun, instantly engulfing the knights in front of me...
