The dwarf's forging technique can be said to be the best forging technique in the King Continent, and he can be said to be the representative of the forging technique of the entire King Continent, but the dwarf who inherited such an excellent forging technique personally admitted that the forging technique of the dwarf clan could not forge this strange arrow, which made everyone feel a trace of fear while feeling unbelievable, and a trace of fear because common sense was broken, but fortunately, in the next second, the words of the copper whisker made the hearts of everyone present fall down.

"Oh, I don't mean to say that we dwarves can't make this kind of arrowhead, we can still make arrowheads of this shape, mainly because our dwarven craftsmen can't bring out the effects of this kind of arrowhead after they create it."

"Whew." While breathing a sigh of relief, the officers of the Griffin Empire all had a question in their minds, that is, what was the effect of this strange arrow, but then there was no such problem in everyone's hearts, because after taking the short arrow that Hall threw at him, Copperbeard picked it up and said to everyone: "First of all, you should be able to see from the sharpness of these arrows that this arrow is specially used against heavily armored soldiers, and I want to say, This peculiar shape may be more powerful than the armor-piercing arrows of the dragon striking arrows popular in our Central Continent, and the launcher equipped with this arrow is a longbow, and it is currently the best in the longbow, and it is said that the powerful archers of the elven races of each continent want to get a purple-shirted longbow, and the penetration power generated after being shot out can even penetrate the super heavy plate armor created by our dwarven warriors head-on, and I will say again that this is only the first effect of this kind of arrow.

"As for the second effect, in fact, we didn't know that this kind of arrow had this effect until our troops were baptized by the rain of arrows formed by this kind of arrow. Only then did we know what the second effect of this arrow would be - to increase weight. ”

"What's the effect of adding weight, it doesn't seem to be of any use?" An officer of the Griffin Empire couldn't help but ask, and Hall, who was the supreme commander of the Griffin Empire at this time, answered at this time: "Let me explain this, I think everyone present knows that although the heavy cavalry is the most terrifying existence in land warfare, it is the heavy infantry that determines the outcome of the battle, after all, the heavy infantry can play a decisive role in all aspects, unlike the heavy cavalry, which can only fight in the area where the cavalry can deploy a charge formation, And as the vast majority of you who have commanded heavy infantry battles on the battlefield. It should be known that the heavy infantry battle, especially the super-heavy armored infantry with the growth of time, the physical strength consumed by the soldiers is greater than that of the light infantry, and the continuous combat time of the super-heavy soldiers is also the shortest among all combat arms, so do you know what this is for? ”

“…… Because of the thickness and weight of the armor. After pondering for a while. One of the captains of the Griffin Empire's Dark Blue Heavy Armor Regiment said, "The armor soldiers are actually equipped with the armor they are equipped with, because these thick and sophisticated armors can provide them with strong defensive capabilities. As a result, heavily armored soldiers are often able to counterattack while withstanding heavy fire from enemy soldiers. The weakness of the heavy infantry is also their armor, because the heavy armor makes it inferior to any other class in terms of movement speed, and at the same time, the heavy battleship also makes the heavy infantry consume more physical strength than any other kind of soldier.......... Oh! I see what it means to add weight! So that's the case, it's no wonder that while the sun never sets has the only single weapon in the world that can kill dragons, the Mo Forging Crossbow, it has never given up cultivating these longbow troops, which are extremely expensive to cultivate. ”

"It seems that you also understand the Captain of Abya, in this case, I think everyone here should also understand the so-called weight increase, right? That's right. Heavy infantry has heavy plate armor, and even if the so-called armor-piercing arrows can penetrate the armor, they will not necessarily be able to damage the soldiers who wrap their bodies inside the heavy plate armor, after all, many heavy infantry are now in double armor configurations. In this case, the sun never sets and the party has thought of an extremely vicious method, you can look at the tail of the arrow in my hand. As he spoke, Hall pointed to the barb at the end of the arrow in his hand, which was even sharper than the arrow, and then inserted it into the thickest part of his armor with brute force under the horrified gaze of everyone and continued: "It's okay, let me continue, cough cough, I think everyone should know when they just learned about this thing with their hands, this kind of arrow is generally heavier than ordinary arrows, as for willingness, first of all, these arrows are made of stainless steel, and secondly, These steels must have been compressed through a special process of casting the sun, and you can ask your Excellency Copperbeard what is going on with this, and what I want to say here is that maybe there is nothing wrong with an arrow stuck in your body, but do you think that after so many arrows fall from the sky, there will really be only one arrow left on your body and on your shield? Captain Galen, I think you should explain that, right? ”

Under Hall's gaze, a high-ranking officer of the Griffin Great Empire wearing a silver battle armor that exuded a light red stood up, and this slightly old middle-aged officer, but in fact it was the deputy commander of the Griffin Great Empire's army, Galen, said under the gaze of everyone: "The rain of arrows carried out by the longbow troops is the most terrifying existence I have ever seen in my life, the rain of arrows is like a waterfall in the mountains, rushing fast and will not be cut off by anything, If it weren't for the dwarven forges in super-heavy plate armor, I'm sure the average hoplite wouldn't have been able to move forward in the rain of arrows. ”

"That's right, that's just the way it is." Hall nodded and said: "But under normal circumstances, even if the outer layer of the armor penetrated by the arrow, because the arrow will destroy the surface of the armor around the penetration point, so we can pull out the arrow with a little force, but the arrow used by the longbow guard is different, because this barb that appears at the end of the arrow can ensure that the arrow can be firmly buckled on the surface of the armor after the arrow penetrates the armor, so that as the number of arrows on our warriors increases, Maybe it won't have much effect on our soldiers at the beginning of the battle, but the longer the battle lasts. Then the physical speed consumed by our soldiers will increase exponentially, and obviously, if we think about our current large-scale combat operations, the time consumed will last for half a day even if it is the shortest, which makes the side that the sun does not set as long as there are enough arrows, the longer the battle lasts, the greater the chance of victory will be on the side of the great empire on which the sun does not set. ”

.........Although many of the officers of the Griffin Empire, including the two female officers of the Archery Queen's unit, showed some confused expressions about the effect of increasing the weight, at least everyone present knew one thing, that is, the longer the two sides fought, the more advantage the sun never set. And even if they lose in the early stage of the battle, as long as the side that does not set the sun survives the early stage, then the side of the great empire that does not set in the later stage will also have a great chance of turning around, and this also makes many of the officers of the griffin empire present have a confused look on their faces at the same time, they also have a lot of dignified looks. However, it was not only this that hit everyone present, except for the news that was exposed. The next thing that broke the news was even more Ranran, and everyone present showed a bitter look on their faces.

"Don't think that the sun never sets, the strength of the Great Empire is urgent, only the Longbow Guard. In fact, the horrors of the Empire where the sun never sets are not the only ones, such as the other broken knives I brought with me. At this moment, the dwarven officer of the Great Empire of Divine Light, Bronze Beard, walked to the council round table, and while throwing his heavy steel gauntlet on the table, he grabbed the handle of the katana with two cuts, and suddenly slashed at the heavy gauntlet with the broken katana under the puzzled eyes of everyone. As a result, something unbelievable happened—under the blow of the destroyed katana, the gauntlet with a thickness of nearly 7 mm was not cut in two with a single sword, but the surface of the gauntlet also revealed a shocking crack.

And at this time. Bronze Beard also threw the broken samurai sword on the council round table, and said in a slightly trembling tone, "Do you know how the wound on my left hand was caused?" It's this katana that made it, isn't it unbelievable that this thing is not the same as what I just showed? But that's the case, and I can tell you very responsibly that the person who slashed me in the first place was not any strange class of troops in the Great Empire, but really the longbow guards of the Great Empire. ”

"At that time, when our soldiers had not yet launched a general attack, because the warships and supplies on the beach were all ignited by the fire set by the sunset fleet, many soldiers in our troops fell into a state of panic, so the breakthrough of the troops of the Great Empire of Divine Light was not a single-line breakthrough, but a scattered breakthrough, and I myself was lost in the chaos, and finally led a part of the soldiers towards a route that should be regarded as a meeting with our vanguard forces in the depths of the forest, But what I didn't expect was that when our vanguard troops dragged the troops of the side where the sun never sets, the commander of the side on which the sun never set was so bold as to divide the elite troops under his command into small units and arrange them on the two flanks of our road to attack our soldiers. At that time, we also met a longbow unit that should have collided with our army face to face before entering its designated ambush location, and as for what I am so sure of it, it is the army of the Sunset Longbow Guard, quite simply, all the hundred or so men took up their longbows and threw arrows at us. ”

"At the beginning of the battle, I and the warriors around me were very confident, because we dwarven forges warriors had strong armor that could withstand the baptism of those arrows, but then we realized how wrong our thinking was, because the terrible rain of arrows illuminated by the hundreds of men even suppressed me and my warriors from moving forward for a while, you know, when I observed myself after the battle, I found that I had at least 20 arrows stuck in my body. Of course, that's not the point, the point is that after losing dozens of soldiers with my soldiers, we finally rushed in front of the soldiers with the giant war hammer in our hands, and at that point, we finally thought we were sure, but what happened next proved how ignorant we were in the face of the army on which the sun never sets. ”

Saying this, Bronze Beard couldn't help but sigh before he said: "Just when we were still a few steps away from those members of the Sunset Longbow Guard, those members of the Sunset Longbow Guard suddenly pulled out this strange sword from their waists and launched a counter-charge at us as if they were wielding a great sword, because I and my soldiers, who never thought that a group of long-range infantry would launch a counter-charge against an over-heavy armored soldier like us, were of course frightened by this situation for a short time, And this frightened caused my soldiers who rushed to the forefront to slash at our soldiers with their strange swords before they could react and swing their war hammers at them. And then......... Then the armor forged by our dwarves was torn open by it in an instant, and those dwarven warriors in the front row fell in an instant, and the most terrifying thing was that I saw with my own eyes that the right arm of a dwarven warrior next to me was cut off by that strange sword, as for me...... I used the handle of my hammer to fend off the blow because of my quick reaction, but because of the long body of this sword, my hand was still slashed by its head.........."

PS: It should be noted here that because the samurai bow used by the Xiyi people is even greater than the demand for the purple-shirted longbow in terms of pulling demand, and although the Xiyi people are short in stature, their arm strength is good, so in this case, many Xiyi warriors who have undergone 2 to 3 years of archery training have also joined the Sunset Longbow Guard. Even some of the Xiyi Bow Guards who participated in the "Twin Star Fall" battle in the Western Continent also abandoned their positions as naval sailors and joined the Longbow Guards of the Sunset Empire, so now among the Longbow Guards of the Sunset Empire, although 2/3 of them are still Sunbow Guards of the Sunset Empire, 1/3 of them are Xiyi people. This was true even of the officer class of the Longbow Guard, and among the captains of all the legions of the Longbow Guard. There is also one from Xiyi who was brought down by the Great Empire on which the sun never sets. However, under the protection of the monks of Honnoji Temple, the officer of the Chozong Ibu family, who has re-emerged and is loyal to the great empire on which the sun never sets, it is worth mentioning that he is the patriarch of the contemporary Chozong Ibu family.

Griffon's Plague

"I think the soldiers of the Griffin Empire are probably stupid by our Xiyi Warrior Legion." While the Griffin Empire was holding a council inside the barracks on the edge of the beach, deep in the forest that had been destroyed and now only represented the white tents and gundam trees of Phnom Penh, Oda Nobunaga, the supreme commander of the Sunset army that now existed at the junction with the western and southern regions of the Central Continent, was gathering with the captains of the Sunset Legion stationed in this area, including the new Prince of the Sunset Dwarf clan and three Blackstone Dwarf tribes. The commanders of the Blackstone Legion, numbering 30,000, hold nearly identical councils.

"And after this battle. I think everyone should have recognized what Sun Lin's crown was asking for the sophisticated katana made by Xiyi to be popularized among the light infantry units in the army, right? So as for the previous proposal to change the secondary weapon of the Atlanta spearmen from a naval sword to a katana, do the gentlemen of Atlanta still have objections? ”

"No, victory is the ultimate goal of our army on which the sun never sets. Since the replacement of the katana can help our army win the war in the future, then we have no need to refuse, but General Oda, while we let the soldiers change their equipment, we have a small request that I hope you can agree, I think General Oda should know that although we Atlantic soldiers will use knife weapons, after all, the katana has its own unique knife technique, so ......" Because the middle-aged officer who was selected by several Atlanta commanders stood up and said to Oda Nobunaga with a frank face, And for the requirements that it did not clearly state, how could Oda Nobunaga, who has the title of the smartest head among the generals of the land battle on which the sun never sets, not know the way (although the generals of the sun never set have their own areas of expertise, but they are not good at military theory and the overall situation, almost so the overall situation of the officers who never set the sun is formed by relying on the inertial thinking summarized by their years on the battlefield, but there is an alternative guy among the army generals who is far more capable than Sun Lin in these two aspects, And it was Oda Nobunaga, who temporarily became the 9th conqueror general of the Sunset Conqueror in the 10th year of the Sunset New Calendar, after the death of the two Sunset-Shoguns in the Western Continent.)

"I understand what you're worried about, and I've figured out how to deal with it." Oda Nobunaga said with a smile: "I will temporarily mobilize the Xiyi samurai officers of the Tengu Legion and some of the Xiyi samurai who have insights into the samurai sword technique, and let them all merge into several Atlantan crescent spearmen regiments, and give basic katana guidance to the Atlantan soldiers, so as to ensure that each Atlantan warrior can have a certain opinion on the katana in his hand in a short period of time. If you want the remaining Dwarven Forges warriors to be able to fight. Then it will have to rest for at least half a month or so, anyway, the battle situation between the Lower Maginot Line and the Upper Maginot Line is like that, I think the Griffin Empire should be able to wait for half a month, and I believe that in this short period of half a month or so, our Atlantan warriors should also be able to have a certain insight into the method of wielding the katana, oh yes, by the way, Sun Lin Mian has asked the troops to transport all the katana swords that were previously refined and backlogged in the warehouse to the front line, and now it only takes a few days, The new katana is distributed to you. And before that, I think the Atlantic soldiers will use the spare katana of our three Xiyi legions to practice. ”

"Yes!" The Atlante officers replied.

"Then it's time to get down to business, I think from the previous few times our army and the troops of the Holy Light Empire, everyone should know the current predicament of our army, right? Prince Blackstone, you have an advantage in your knowledge of the Heavy Armor class. Then let you explain the current predicament of our army. In Oda Nobunaga's gesture, this middle-aged dwarf with bronzed or even gray-black skin was born. appeared in front of the officers on which the sun never sets. He spoke to everyone in a dwarven tone, no matter how serious.

"Although I'm a newcomer, I don't know much about the troops of our Great Empire, and I don't know much about the so-called dark blue heavy armor legion of the Griffin Empire, but when it comes to the furnace warriors of our dwarven clan, I can pack a ticket, even the weaknesses of the armor equipped on this class can be clearly said. And for the so-called super-heavy infantry, I also know very well. So in everyone's mind, the so-called super heavy armor type should be the kind of soldier who moves very slowly with a large shield and wears the armor equipped with heavy cavalry, but in fact, I am talking about it. This is just one of the super heavy armor classes, and the other is our dwarven forges warriors who wear super heavy plate armor and wield huge weapons, maybe at the beginning of the battle, everyone thought that the combat power of the crucible warriors was like that, but in fact, I want to explain that at that time, because this group of guys couldn't even play half of their combat power when they were hungry, let alone let those guys charge. ”

"Wait, Your Excellency, you said that those dwarven forged warriors couldn't even charge, so did those dwarven forged warriors of the Great Empire of Divine Light use them to march forward?" At this moment, an officer on which the sun never sets interrupted Prince Kuroishi's words and raised his doubts in his heart, and Prince Kuroishi's reply made everyone present look incredulous.

"Nonsense, don't think we dwarves have short legs, but when it comes to foot strength and running speed, a trained dwarven forgester warrior can even catch up with a running pony for a short distance without wearing any armor?" Prince Blackstone rolled his eyes and said, "Otherwise, do you think that we dwarven warriors are wielding that huge warhammer for something, isn't it in the process of charging that the warhammer can only exert its power to the limit?" ”

"That kind of fighting is only good for you dwarven warriors!" The human officers couldn't help but roar in their hearts, but even so, there was also an opinion in everyone's hearts that things were confirmed, that is, never compare the strength of the feet with the dwarven warriors, and do not compare with the dwarven warriors for sprinting, their rounded bodies will definitely make all the races that are taller feel inferior, and at this time, the new prince Heishi who never sets the sun also began to continue to say in his somewhat funny tone.

"The reason why I say this is to tell you that when the dwarven warriors of the Holy Light Empire start to charge, they will either choose to retreat backwards and fight back after the dwarves' short-distance charge has passed, or they will use a stronger charge to fight back against those forgiver warriors, and in the next battle, our Blackstone Dwarf legion will do its best to fight against the dwarven warriors of the Holy Light Empire, but we need a certain amount of long-range fire support, After all, there are nearly twice as many of those guys, and as long as there is enough long-range fire support, we are guaranteed to teach the scum who have abandoned their belief in forging gods. ”

"Don't worry, we'll send two regiments of Longbow Guards to support you in terms of fire support, and two heavily armed hook and sickle soldiers to support you if you can't stand it, so you don't have to worry." Oda Nobunaga responded. Then he turned his gaze to the officers who were present: "In fact, from this point I think you should also see the biggest dilemma of our army now, that is, we only have light infantry suitable for fighting on the ground, but there are no troops that can compete with the super heavy infantry, maybe this seems to you to be nothing, but is this really the case?" It is important to know that although the super-heavy infantry in the road cannot adapt to some complex terrain, and even similar to the siege warfare This type of battle does not have siege equipment suitable for the battle of the super-heavy infantry, then it will not be able to play any value, but if they adapt to a certain combat terrain, then the combat effectiveness it bursts out is definitely not ordinary and terrible, and now we can be sure of it. The super-heavy infantry of the Great Empire of Divine Light, the Dwarven Forge Warriors, have adapted to this kind of combat, and as for the dark blue heavy armor of the Great Griffon Empire, they may not be able to do it now, but what about the future? Now that they dare to land here, it is only a matter of time before these heavily armored dark blue hoplites adapt to the combat conditions here. ”

Indeed, as Oda Nobunaga said. Don't look at the fact that the Sunset side killed more than half of the Dwarven Forge Warriors of the Great Empire of Light in the previous battle, but in fact, this time the Sunset side completely took advantage of it. For example, the longbow troops on the side where the sun never sets set up pocket formations in the vast forest before the battle. When the dwarven forges warriors of the Great Empire of Divine Light broke through with sharp knives from the front, the rain of arrows on the side of the sun never set came from all directions to kill these dwarven warriors. Secondly, the soldiers of the Great Empire of Divine Light were all dwarven warriors who were starving to the point of dizziness. Maybe they can burst out with very terrifying combat power in a short period of time, but this is only for a moment, not to mention that in the next time, only the hook and sickle troops and the Blackstone dwarf team on the side of the sun will temporarily resist the charge of the dwarven forged warriors of the Holy Light Great Empire. The next battle has already become a time for the soldiers on which the sun never sets.

And the most important thing is that in the previous battle, half of the cavalry troops on the side of the sun never set came to support, but now, the troops on the side of the Griffon Empire have landed at the junction between the western regions of the Central Continent and the southern regions of the Central Continent, so it is very likely that the land cavalry troops of the Griffon Empire will also land on the coast of the southern region of the Central Continent and join the Knights of the Cathar on the side of the Holy Light Empire. The cavalry troops on the side of the sun never set will definitely return to the southern region of the Central Continent to confront the troops of the Holy Light Empire, in this way, in fact, while the reinforcements on the side of the Holy Light Empire began to increase, the combat effectiveness of our troops began to shrink, especially the number of heavy infantry has decreased a lot, and in this case, the situation of the light armament of the troops on the side of the sun does not set is even more serious, although many of the troops of the soldiers who do not set the sun are light infantry that restrain the heavy infantry in the setting of the troops, But the problem is that it is not the heavy infantry that appears in front of everyone, but the super-heavy infantry.

"So what do we do now? Is it impossible for all the lightly armed soldiers of our empire on which the sun never sets to be equipped with heavy armor, especially those from His Excellency the General? This has no effect at all, except for the fact that the combat power of our soldiers will drop down one layer again. A Legion Commander who had pondered for a moment said with an ugly look on his face after a moment of silence, for he found that the current situation was a completely unsolvable stalemate for the side on which the sun never set.

"In fact, I had such thoughts as you before this, but it wasn't until Sun Lin sent me the latest instructions that I found that this problem is actually as long as we do it well, as long as we do it seriously, there is still a chance to turn the tables, and this corresponding method is to fight guerrilla warfare with the army of the Holy Light Empire and the Griffin Empire, and the so-called guerrilla warfare here is not the guerrilla warfare tactics used by those grass Kou years, but the division of troops into small units, Then, various marker stones that can draw various commands of the army are placed on the centurions' bodies, and then the troops of the Holy Light Empire and the troops of the Sun Never Sets launch a surprise attack on those over-armored soldiers in the dense forest at the junction of the western regions of the Central Continent and the southern regions of the Central Continent. ”

"Of course, because the troops on the side of the Holy Light Great Empire always like to be together, especially the type of super-heavy infantry, if they don't group together, they won't be able to exert their combat effectiveness at all, so for this reason, Sun Lin Mian specially got a batch of individual combat equipment from the rear quartermaster's office, and this thing is the individual Greek fire spray device that the enemy of our Great Empire of the Sun Never Sets calls the devil's weapon. (To be continued......)
