Chapter 470: Rogue Battle Formation (II)
The war put forward by the Barnum militia can be described as very boring, because as long as the soldiers who carry out this kind of war perform well, then this kind of turtle shell array similar to the ancient Roman legions in the original world of Europe can not only deter the enemy's miscellaneous soldiers, but also effectively resist arrows, even if it is a crossbow or rocket that flies towards them, of course, except for the heavy crossbow of the level of Mo forging crossbow and the longbow equipped with armor-piercing arrows.
But obviously, according to the so-called tooth for tooth and eye for eye fighting method of the soldiers who never set the sun, since your Barnum militia dares to play in front of our army that the sun never sets, and you are so scoundrels that there are no war machines or powerful long-range appliances on our side, then of course our side will also give you an even more scoundrel battle formation.
"Macedonian battle formation! 3-sided inverted triangle arrangement! Poke these girls to death! "With the roar of a small Atlanta lord in the inverted triangle war, oh no, it should be said that it is the grassroots official of the Kennbold area of Atlantia, in the eyes of those Imu spearmen who rushed into the wooden fort gate, behind the wooden iron zither-shaped shields that were not smaller than the tower shields equipped by the Barnum militia, hundreds of crescent spearheads that were steaming with cold light suddenly pierced, and then, the eyes of the Imu spearmen closest to those kite-shaped shields were only blood red, and the ears of those Imu spearmen who were crowded in the middle were only the screams of their comrades, and the shouts of insults and shouts of murder from the Atlantic spearmen mixed with the screams.
"Kill! Kill! Kill! ”
"Come on! Come on! The crumbs of the Water Kirin Empire! Come and die! ”
"Didn't you bully us that we don't have weapons of war? Then we'll bully you for not having heavy armor! "Just like what a certain Atlantan crescent spearman said, since the Water Qilin side bullying the sun does not set on this side, there are no war equipment, no powerful long-range weapons, then our side of the sun does not set to bully your Water Qilin army's advance force has no soldiers equipped with heavy armor, and there are no siege weapons that can quickly dismantle those heavy walls on our side.
In fact, these Atlanta spearmen are not really Macedonian battle formations, except for some differences in combat methods, the weapons they are equipped with alone can explain everything, because the Macedonian soldiers are equipped with round shields and super long spears, while the Atlantic crescent spearmen use zither-shaped shields and crescent spears, but no matter what, as long as this war called the Macedonian battle formation by the officers who never sets can kill the enemy.
And after a few attacks, most of the Imu spearmen who rushed in also saw the superficial operation of this war: this battle formation, which was called the special battle formation of the Atlantlan crescent spearmen by the people who never set, was composed of six columns of Atlantan crescent spearmen, the last four of which were for preparation, and they stood upright with their crescent spears, and held their kite-shaped shields diagonally upwards to defend against the crossbow arrows that flew in, especially those thrown by the Sante crossbowmen outside the city; The Atlanta spearmen at the very front, with the kite-shaped shield in their hands and the ones in the hands of their comrades, are close to each other, and then put the crescent spear in the gap between the shield and the shield, sitting in a mechanical back and forth thrusting action, and because now the Atlantan crescent spearmen will put a heavy shoulder armor on their left shoulder because of the use of the Macedonian battle array, so the Atlantan crescent spearmen in the second row will put the crescent spear in their hands on the shoulder armor of their comrades in front of them, and slightly tilt the direction of the spear head to the lower part of the body. Perform the same moves as the Atlantic Crescent Spearmen in the front row. Although this kind of battle formation was not very strong, it was enough for these Water Qilin Empire advance troops with only leather armor on their bodies.
With the fall of his teammates and the fact that he could not break through the enemy's phalanx, the Imu spearmen who fought with short spears and log shields quickly retreated, and slowly fled out of the city under the watchful eyes of all the Water Qilin Empire soldiers outside the city. The defeat of the Imu spearmen so quickly made the water qilin's side jealous, which even caused the light catapults and those Sante crossbowmen outside the city to temporarily stop their long-range attacks on the soldiers who never set the sun in the city.
The war suddenly fell into a brief stalemate, and the Water Qilin side needed to learn the situation in the Wooden Fort of the Sun Never Set from the mouths of those fleeing Imu Spearmen, and the Atlantan Crescent Spearmen in the Sunset Target celebrated their repulsion of the enemy's attack, and at the same time, they also began to let the Atlantan Crescent Spearmen exchange guards with each other, and by the way, the eye-catching corpses in front of them were formed into a "corpse wall" of the Atlantan Crescent Spearmen who were not even half a meter high, causing some obstacles for the Water Qilin soldiers who wanted to break through the Macedonian battle formation next.
.........The stalemate did not last long, because it was now a critical moment for the two sides to fight, in order to quickly stabilize the negative impact of the rout of the Imu Short Spearmen, the reward of the Water Qilin side immediately captured 5 Imu Short Spearmen for public execution after understanding the situation in the Qing Sun Buluo Wooden Fort, in order to warn his men of how serious the consequences would be if they fled, let 200 Dahlan light cavalry take the lead, leading the more than 200 Imu short spearmen who had fled before to fight back to the Sunset Wooden Fort again.
It is not that the generals on the side of the Water Qilin are fools, but because in the eyes of the generals on the side of the Water Qilin, the strength of the human race is simply unable to resist the charge of the war horses, although the Dalan Light Cavalry is not equipped with a horse that is a specialty of the Water Qilin Empire: the Qilin Horse. But as a military power, but a military power that fought in the south and north in the Western Regions of the Central Continent every day, how could the charging power of the ordinary war horses of the Water Qilin Empire be low in this era when the cavalry was equivalent to the royal road? If Sun Lin had the time to scan these Darlan light cavalry with the system, he would be surprised to find that these cavalry were equipped with light cavalry spears, kite-shaped shields and inlaid armor, and the charging power of the Water Qilin Empire light cavalry without any vest had reached 4 points.
However, regardless of the ontological strength of these Darlan light cavalry, they finally got a tragic end, and because of the fact that the horses could not be stopped in a short time after the war horse launched the charge, almost all the Darlan light cavalry who rushed into the wooden fort were killed: after all, the Macedonian battle array was a battle formation that destroyed all Darius's chariots in the Battle of Gaugamela, and only two hundred war horses could kill the Atlantan crescent spearmen in one or two rows in front of the sunset. It made the Macedonian phalanx set by the soldiers who never set the sun more chaotic, and it had no effect at all. It's just that what the sun doesn't set on is that this effect seems to be enough for the water qilin side............
"Barnum! Charge with a shield! ”
