Reborn Night Rise

Chapter 152 The Battle Begins ([-])

Guo Lang and his group sneaked into the city wall and acted as guards on the top of the wall. Horses are still a precious strategic resource in this era. Naturally, Guo Lang and his group will not give priority to relatively high-end troops such as cavalry, crossbowmen, and even firearm battalions. Choose, because those troops are more valued, and the comrades are probably more familiar with each other, so they are not suitable for sneaking in.

And they are suitable for these miscellaneous soldiers on the wall who are in charge of rolling stones and thunder wood. According to Al, the Baila Royal Court is a nation that came out of the grassland and is a nation on horseback. Although it occupies most of the agricultural land to establish After entering the empire, the upper class still takes pride in cavalry and archery. Those who can serve as cavalry have a certain status, and those who are responsible for something like the wall, thunder stone rolling wood, fire oil and gold juice must be the lower status arms, because Most of them are temporarily recruited, and their status is very low, so even if they are replaced by two, they will not be noticed!

Alice possesses a professionally secret disguise technique, which can not only change her appearance, but also change the size of her bones. It is no problem to disguise an adult soldier. Guo Lang imitated Alice's skills and got past it easily, and then Abel, his figure is still easy to attract others' attention. After all, in the feudal era, there were still a few low-status miscellaneous soldiers who could grow so strong.

So after thinking about it, Abel and Kelly were still in charge of responding not far behind, while he and Alice went to the city wall to investigate the situation. When the two were choosing task assignments, Guo Lang decisively chose to burn golden juice Alice seemed a little reluctant, but Guo Lang asked, and she could only pout and reluctantly followed.

Guo Lang naturally had his own considerations. Even low-level chores were divided into three or six grades. For example, not many people were willing to do the job of burning gold juice.

The so-called golden juice is the juice mixed with various dung, which is extremely smelly. In this era of cold weapons, the city wall can be said to be the most cost-effective and efficient item. After this thing is boiled, the taste is even more pungent. When it comes to humans, according to the medical conditions of this era, the consequences can be imagined.

Even direct death is not impossible.

"Dad, it stinks, shall we go over there and carry the log?" Alice, who turned into a young man about 1.7 meters tall, complained coquettishly in a low voice.

Guo Lang waited for her and said, "Don't make trouble, follow me, don't run around!"

Alice: "Woo"

Gold juice stinks, so most people will not notice here, especially the high-level people, not only avoiding the scrutiny of those soldiers, but also avoiding the attention of the higher-ups. Guo Lang noticed very early that the wall The frail-looking middle-aged man in quartermaster uniform was watching the situation over the wall.

"This person is different from others! This is a very wise person, and I and Alice can't get too close to him!" Guo Lang judged secretly.

Both of them have no experience in this kind of low-level cannon fodder, and it is easy for these keen people to see some scrutiny from their habitual movements, so it is better to stay away from the sight of these people as much as possible.

However, Guo Lang is a little strange. The opposite camp does not seem to intend to attack, and from the intelligence point of view, it seems that they have just reached the bottom of the city. In this situation, they should not attack immediately, but Guo Lang found that the wall He looked like he was facing a formidable enemy, and the atmosphere was a bit weird.

Suddenly there was a heavy horn sound, followed by bursts of powerful drumming!

This situation made Guo Lang narrow his eyes, because the sound of the horn and the beating of the drum came from his own army, that is to say. Are they going to take the initiative to attack?

Guo Lang frowned for a while. From the intelligence point of view, the troops of the Ross Empire were in full swing, taking down five cities in a row.

Guo Lang secretly said: "It's so kind, you take the initiative to attack, it really is of grassland blood, a bit tough, but" Guo Lang looked at the cavalry gathered at the gate of the city wall, and was a little surprised. Generally speaking, most grassland knights are good at riding and shooting, and they are rarely seen. This kind of heavy cavalry.

Just as he was thinking, the city gate opened wide, and Guo Lang saw a middle-aged man over two meters tall, wearing exquisite mail armor, and holding a knight gun several meters long. From the shape of the weapon, he looked a bit like Lord Guo Lang. The knight spear on the western history of the plane!

This kind of spear is a disposable product, and the front part of the spear shaft is hollow. Once it hits the target, the huge reaction force will make the spear shaft shatter.This type of spear, with an average length of 5 meters, is made of very brittle fir wood (which is the wood used to make pencils in modern times, how brittle you can imagine).These spears are first made of wood in the shape of a half body, then hollowed out, and finally the two halves are glued together and painted with red paint, decorated with golden feathers and attached to the spear head flag.

The middle and rear part of the whole spear is a wooden ball, which protects the hand holding the spear.The iron spearhead is small, only about 10 centimeters long, with ridges on it, and a long iron bar behind the spearhead to secure the spearhead to the shaft.Due to the hollow shaft, these spears rarely weighed more than 3 kg, and were counterweighted with wooden balls, with a rearward center of gravity for easy gripping and handling.A cavalryman charging at full speed can pierce an armored enemy with a spear in his hand, but usually the spear will also be shattered by the reaction force at the same time.

This disposable spear is a very scientific and reasonable weapon, because the cavalry spear is different from the infantry battle spear. When the cavalry is assassinating, the horse runs fast and cannot stay in the enemy's army, because once it stays, A stagnant knight, unable to move, would make the best target for a group of infantry.

Even if the knights of both sides are singled out, the two sides ride horses to hedge against each other. When they approach each other, they will only hit once or twice, and at most it will not exceed 3 hits. The two horses will run away far away. Desires, they will come back, hedge again, fight each other, and separate the process.

In this way, one round and one round, the two sides drive their horses close, fight, and then run away with their horses. Such a cycle is called a round.Pingshu said how many rounds the generals fought in the old days, which is to describe this cycle. The so-called back is the process of returning horses to fight, and the process of two horses approaching each other is the process of two horses approaching each other.However, novelists have expanded the concept and called infantry battles and martial arts masters' fights rounds, which is actually a misnomer, because infantry combats are often stuck together, which is quite different from horse battles that can be divided at the touch of a button.

Generally speaking, when assassinating on horseback, the person borrows the horsepower, and the horse borrows the power of the person. The human and horse are integrated, and all the kinetic energy of the rapid sprint of the human and horse is gathered on the tip of the spear.This kind of force is very huge. If it is not stable on the horse, even if the enemy is stabbed to death, the knight will be thrown off the horse. Therefore, the problem that must be solved immediately with the spear is how to buffer this reaction force!

After having stirrups, in order to solve the reaction force of the impact, most of the cavalry spears of this kind of heavy cavalry are for one-time use. After the impact, they will break when they hit the target, which greatly reduces the reaction force of the impact and prevents the knight from being reacted. Push down on the horse.After the spear is broken, the knight will draw the knight sword, saber, mace and other melee weapons to continue fighting or go back to his attendant to get the riding spear!
Guo Lang silently watched this seemingly high-ranking general, with more than a thousand elite heavy cavalry, swarming towards the gate of the city like a proud fighter, and shook his head secretly.

Guo Lang has also experienced many battlefields in his previous life. Although he is a character, he has seen some cavalry in the middle and low planes. The cavalry in front of him is very good in the category of ordinary people. , or equipment, formation, all worthy of the word elite!
But Guo Lang is still not optimistic about them, because their opponents are not in the category of ordinary people!
