Chapter 156: The battle is underway

"Knock knock knock.........." Although the third line of Mishaal is nearly 1 kilometer away from the first line, looking at the tragic situation of the front-line long-range troops in front, Novasev feels that the sound of those arrows shooting through the soil is so loud, as if it happened at the root of his ears.

At this moment, Novasv remembered that he had ignored a problem at the beginning, that is, the problem of the lethality of the long-range troops of the Empire on which the sun never sets. Because before this, Novasv had always believed that the Imperial army of the Sun Never Sets was good at elite heavy cavalry, strong siege troops and elite navy, but Novasv did not know what to do, the feudal knight was a relatively strong but also a lot of rotten profession in the original world, and in the later period, whether it was the heavy lancers of the Gallic chicken, the Tsar's Guards of Lao Maozi, or the Goethe knights of the Germans, they were all types of heavy cavalry that could abuse the English heavy cavalry of the Sun Never Set Empire for a few streets.

As for the siege troops......... If for the Northwest Continent, which is still in the early Middle Ages, the siege weapons of the Sun Never Set Empire can indeed be regarded as a very sharp product, but for the empires of the Middle Continent or other regions, the siege weapons produced by the Sun Never Set Empire can only be regarded as outstanding products if they are specially designed to kill enemy infantry, as for weapons such as counterweight trebuchets and heavy torsion trebuchets, although they have been complicated, in the siege warfare of the empires in the Middle Continent, these are also rotten street type weapons. According to the information collected by Thebes, the human empire in the Central Continent has developed a semi-mechanized trebuchet that relies on gravity, and its firing speed is twice that of an ordinary counterweight trebuchet, and Sun Lin wants to surpass the siege science of the human empire in the Central Continent, the most direct and effective way is to study "gunpowder", of course, the 100 million gold coins that study gunpowder can directly crush Sun Lin into slag, and he doesn't even have time to breathe.

Of course, it's not that Sun Lin doesn't know the composition of gunpowder, Sun Lin still understands the principle of one nitrate, two stones, and three charcoal, but the question is what if he understands, do you know that the blacksmiths under him are now people who can't even make equipment such as heavy plate armor and cavalry crossbows, so they can make artillery and hand cannons across hundreds of years? No kidding, even if they were asked to make black powder, there was no chance of it.

As for the navy, this Sun Lin does not deny it, because the navy is indeed the strength of the empire on which the sun never sets, otherwise in the period of great exploration, the empire will not drive away the old maritime hegemon Spain, and become the greatest colonial country in the history of the original world.

"Herald! Get the compound archers and all the Snow Mountain Raiders to speed up and tear the Sunset Array to shreds for me! "Although the Empire is very strong in terms of long-range firepower, but now that the Mishaal army has become a sharp arrow flying out of the sky, there is no way to go back, the only way is to speed up the movement of your own long-range troops, let your own long-range troops suppress the opponent's long-range troops, and then let your own raiders rush up with a one-time armor-piercing short-range strike I feel that these appearances are very strange, they have never appeared on the battlefield of the Sunset Empire before, but the danger is extremely high. But as it turned out, Novasev had once again miscalculated.

Dreams are always beautiful, but the reality is cruel, when those who are shot by the giant shield crossbowmen are scattered, After the compound archers with only about 25,000 left finally reached the firing point, these compound archers wearing animal skin coats or cloth armor immediately drew an iron arrow from the quiver, pulled the bow and wound it to shoot the arrow full of revenge for their comrades, and what happened next made the eyes of the Mishaal soldiers fall to the ground and shatter, and even the commander of the sun, Comrade Andelt, opened his mouth slightly after seeing what happened next.

I saw that when the iron arrows that flew from the high altitude with the help of inertia and the gravity that continued to stack when falling, the giant shield crossbowmen in the front-line troops immediately turned around and squatted down under the order of the centurion, and curled up in the steel plate giant shield with a height of 2 meters and a width of 1.5 meters on their backs......... No, there were no deaths, but there were still a few injuries, and the reason why these injuries were because they accidentally fell when they turned around, and their heads or hands hit the ground and ached.

Every time I have seen such shamelessness, at this time, the Yoman longbowmen who are in the 2nd line of troops are all in this situation, and they also began to mumble in their hearts if they can smash the king's eight shells of these giant shield crossbowmen, but at the end of the year, the Yoman longbowmen are very helpless to find that if they want to break the armor of the giant shield crossbowmen with longbows and conical steel arrows, they must close the distance between themselves and the giant shield crossbowmen by 70 meters, and in this way, the Yoman longbowmen will be forced to give up the advantages of their long-range attack effect. As for the 3rd line of Mishaal's troops, the irascible Majesty Novasv had already ordered the whole army to attack without reservation, because he could no longer think of any better way to take out those giant shield crossbowmen with the same defense as turtle shells.

However, after receiving the order to attack without reservation from the whole army, the morale of the Mishals has obviously returned to its previous high state, and it seems that it should be because these snow-capped warriors have the same vikings in their bones as the Vikings in the original world, and they all retain a trace of warlike blood in their bones.

"A wave? That's really ......... But I think that Emperor Mishar should not know that there is a papal guard in the army that is now dedicated to dealing with such fools, so pass the order! The Papal Guard moved forward, heavily armed swordsmen guarded its flanks, and the Yoman Longbowmen moved forward, giving the Papal Guard long-range firepower. "Upon seeing the movements of the Mishals, Andelt immediately ordered the first and second lines of troops to march forward.

After receiving the order, the papal guards, dressed in three layers of protective armor, chanted for their Pope, Urban. After Sun Lin was crowned, he moved in front of the giant shield crossbowmen with a firm step, their fiery eyes made Andelt feel a little afraid, after seeing this situation, Andelt believed that if he brought the cross chariot that was parked at Fort Biliga because it was too heavy and would slow down the march of 70,000 reinforcements, it is estimated that the tens of thousands of heavily armed swordsmen would not need to participate, and these fanatical Christians would definitely be able to burst out with more powerful combat effectiveness.

"Top shield! Come on! Under the roar of several thousand-man battles, the Papal Guard, which had been marching forward step by step, began to trot, and raised the steel spear with a bloodletting groove in his hand at his waist, and rushed towards the Mishaal Snow Mountain Raiders who were less than 50 steps ahead, and the Snow Mountain Raiders on the opposite side were not vegetarians, and immediately began to throw throwing axes forward in rows after seeing such a situation, but the Goddess of Victory was not on the side of Michar, although the flying axes were thrown smoothly, but they did not cause much damage to the Papal Guards, Most of the axes only left a hole in the Papal Guard's body and then fell to the ground, which only pierced through the first and second layers of the Papal Guard's armor, and there was still a strong steel inlay inside their body, which was definitely enough to cancel out the damage caused by most of the Snow Mountain Raiders.

"Ah!!h The earth-shattering battle cry sounded, and in less than 10 seconds, 40,000 members of the Papal Guard collided with nearly 100,000 Snow Mountain Raiders, and at the same time, the Yoman longbowmen behind the Papal Guard also began to participate in the battle, shooting a cone-shaped steel arrow into the rear of the Snow Mountain Raider Ranks.

On the two flanks of the Papal Guard, the 20,000 snow-capped berserkers who originally tried to surround the Papal Guard were intercepted by the 15,000 heavily armed swordsmen guarding the two wings of the Papal Guard, and the battlefield immediately entered a stalemate.

PS: That's it for tonight.,Tomorrow's 2 more words are the same more.,This can solve the problem of less than 1 more on Thursday.
