284. Menso's Meter
Just as the steel wings intercepted the charge of the 2nd Cavalry Regiment of Dabiang, an army was also waiting on a hill about a few hundred meters away. It's just that this army is not an army that belongs to the Hasteen family, and of course it doesn't belong to Sean's army now, this army was transferred to Florence by Sean some time ago, and now their commander is Menso. Helion.
Although Menso was unable to train this army by himself because of the short time period, after some powerful means, it was not too difficult to command this army now.
And at this moment, in addition to Menso, who commanded this army, there were also Florence, Dante and other strong men responsible for protecting Florence.
Although William did not tell Menso what they were responsible for in this battle, Menso was also a high-minded man, how could he tolerate accepting a territory for no reason? William Bai gave him 3,000 troops, which already made him feel that his dignity was somewhat damaged, and if he did not contribute to the capture of Tinchiin at this moment, then he would not be Menso.
However, there are many situations in which the output is made.
Entering the Tinchiin Territory is a must, but timing is just as important.
Regardless of Florence's opinion, since he was a follower of Florence and wanted to help Florence strengthen his family, he could not allow Florence's allies to surpass them in terms of overall strength. Therefore, even if the steel wings were besieged by 30,000 cavalry charges, he did not give the order to attack, but chose to lie quietly aside, waiting for a perfect harvest time.
After all, with his current strength, even if a few golden powerhouses attacked, he would have to pay a heavy price to defeat the Dabiang Second Cavalry Regiment, at least there would definitely not be many of these 3,000 soldiers left. So Menso made up his mind. He would not have given the order to attack until the Iron Wing had lost the battle with Dabiang's 2nd Cavalry Regiment, and only then would he be able to achieve the greatest possible results for Florence.
However, when the 2nd Cavalry Regiment of Dabiang collided with the Steel Wings, the result was completely unexpected.
Even if he thought that William had just left this army here, he did not think that this army would be able to hold back the charge of Dabiang's 2nd Cavalry Regiment, or at least the formation would definitely be cut. But in fact, the steel wings really blocked the charge of the 2nd Cavalry Regiment of Dabiang, and even caused a lot of damage to them - almost after blocking the charge of the cavalry, it was another round of short gun throwing!
This time. Not only Turnch, but even Menso already knew what steel wings he wanted to leave behind for the last short spear.
It turned out that they had already known that the 2nd Cavalry Regiment of Dabion would attack here, so these short guns were reserved for these cavalrymen. And with such a distance, the throwing of these short guns will not be as wasteful as the previous two attacks. Menso didn't even need to be physically present to know the way, with the chaos and trampling caused by this defense, coupled with the throwing of short guns. At the very least, it could cause close to 6,000 casualties.
"It's not easy!" Menso stared at the battlefield ahead. Heartfelt praise.
Hearing Mensuo's words, the people present were slightly surprised: the arrogant Mensuo would actually say such a thing?
You must know that when Lu Dao was in the fascist kingdom, even if he saw the army trained by Turin with his own eyes, and even was almost cornered by Turin, Menso did not praise him, and his eyes were simply a kind of disdain and ridicule. But at the moment. No matter what anyone present looked at, they didn't think that the steel wings could be compared to the army in Turin, but Menso gave a heartfelt compliment, which was of course surprising.
"It's not easy." The thin old man standing beside Florence nodded. The tone was also a bit approving.
If Menso's praise was only surprising to them, and not too important, then the thin old man's words were enough to shock people.
"Mr. Bode, what are you saying that is not simple?" Florence's face was also hard to hide its shock.
This thin old man had been with him since he was born in Florence, and was said to have been an orphan picked up by his mother, so there was no doubt about his loyalty. Even Pepe, Nana, the giant man in the hooded cloak, and the dead soldier who died in the battle to cover him before were all trained by this man, and it can be said that without this old man named Bode, then there would be no Florence today.
Therefore, of course, Florence has great respect for this Bode, who is listed as a "guard" by Florence according to the holy war card.
But from the time he was sensible to now, for more than ten years, he had rarely heard Bode praise anyone. But at this moment, after seeing the steel wings blocking the charge of the two light cavalry, he actually praised it without hesitation, and judging from the tone of his voice, it was obviously a heartfelt compliment, which made Florence curious.
"It's normal for you to not see it, because your strength hasn't reached a certain height." "I suppose the reason why General Menso is not easy is because they can block the impact of the cavalry charge on both sides with just such a few men," said Bode. ”
"Indeed." For Bode, Menso is also very respectful, "Even if it is light cavalry, as long as it forms a scale, the impact and impact of the charge are definitely not something that ordinary people can bear, not to mention that this army is not a pure heavy infantry, at best it can only be regarded as an armed heavy shield soldier." And with the scale of 5,000 people, let alone blocking the impact from two directions at the same time, it is difficult to resist even in one direction, I originally thought that in the face of such a charge, their formation would definitely be cut into two pieces. ”
"If it's a normal situation, it really can't be stopped." Bode said in a deep voice, "Even if it's me, I can't stop a charge of this magnitude. Not to mention me, even if it is a lower Sacred Domain powerhouse, I will definitely not stand alone on the charging route of a cavalry with a scale of more than 10,000 people. ”
Everyone knows the horror of the cavalry charge, and Bode's words have deepened everyone's impression of the cavalry charge.
But the problem is that the steel wings are really in the way.
"That's because there's a wall of rules." Seeing everyone's puzzled looks, Bode did not continue to hide it, but spoke. "I think the problem should be with the tower shields in the hands of the Northlanders on the left and right. Those tower shields were slightly different from the standard tower shields used by the other Northland barbarians, especially when they gathered their strength, and I even saw the phantom of the wall of rules......"
"The Wall of Rules!" Dante let out an exclamation.
Obviously, Dante knew exactly what this was.
"The wall of rules is the barrier of all the laws of this world, and it is said that there are some legendary powerhouses when their strength reaches a certain level, they will drive the power of the laws of this world world with their moves, and if they choose to defend, then they themselves are equivalent to a part of this world world." Bode knew that many people did not know, so he also opened his mouth to explain. "Therefore, the wall of rules is equal to a part of this worldly realm. …… Those cavalry crashed into it like this, it was completely equivalent to crashing into the wall of rules, and it was strange to be able to break through the shield wall of those northern barbarians. ”
At this, Boud hesitated slightly. He added: "If they can really break through the shield wall of these Northland barbarians, then we don't have to fight this battle." At the very least, it was equivalent to the full force of a senior legendary powerhouse. ”
Hear Bode. Everyone swallowed.
The image of the army of steel wings became unfathomable in the eyes of everyone in an instant.
But in reality, this is not as exaggerated as Bode suggests.
The reason why the steel wings were able to hold off the charge of these cavalry was purely because of the special war skill inspired by the shock shield in their hands: the Continental Barrier!
[Continental Barrier: Dress advantage, the army is immune to all slashing, piercing, and long-range strike damage, forming a field suppression effect on cavalry troops. Immunity to Light Cavalry Charge (Boosted Domain Suppression), 60% Exemption from Heavy Cavalry Charge (Bonus Field Suppression), 30% Immunity to Special Cavalry Charge (Bonus Field Suppression), 50% Movement Speed Reduction. Cannot be hidden, cannot move when the defense array is deployed, reduces magic resistance by 400%, and any magic and magic blessings will be reduced by 50%. Dress code: 500 men, heavy infantry. Costume Effect: Army Level Upgrade by 1 level, Absolute Barrier: 35% chance to force cavalry units that have broken through the defensive formation to be unable to chisel through the formation. 】
If the 2nd Cavalry Regiment of Dabiang had not been a light cavalry unit, but a heavy cavalry unit, the end would certainly not have been so tragic. And if it was other special cavalry units such as dragoons or lizard cavalry, then the formation would have already been broken. It's just a pity that the 2nd Cavalry Regiment of Dabiang is a light cavalry unit, so they naturally have to encounter the effect of domain suppression, and this effect is "complete immunity".
Therefore, it was the 2nd Cavalry Regiment of Dabiang that suffered heavy losses, not the steel wings.
Of course, this is also because after activating the war skill of "Continental Barrier", the two small troops led by Abazar and Quinn are already a real fifth-level army.
And a fifth-level army, even if there is only one strong combat unit, is enough to suppress a high-ranking golden powerhouse, not to mention that the second cavalry regiment of Dabiang is only a third-level army. At this moment, the loss of the commander, the effects of the throwing of short guns and the failure of the charge, the morale had almost completely dropped to the valley, and it was more well known that a cavalry unit that could not exert its mobility and charging ability was even worse than the light infantry.
Menso was also a man who made a quick decision, he knew that his plan to win more negotiation and living space for Florence by weakening the steel wings was no longer effective, so it was pointless to continue to delay and not rescue, and even let the people of Panda have an opinion about Florence.
Menso wouldn't have thought that the beauty who could devise such a perfectly precise strategy would not know about his little moves.
But even if he knew the way, the other party didn't say anything, and Mensuo finally understood now that he was still not atmospheric enough.
So at this moment, he did not hesitate at all, and immediately ordered the whole army to attack, because no matter how much those northern barbarians could fight, it would still be difficult to hold on to being besieged by more than 20,000 people, and if he didn't go to support, then the final result would be that the steel wings would be completely annihilated. At that time, the Dabiang Second Cavalry Regiment may suffer heavy losses, but with only the 3,000 men in his hands, it will not be able to stop the continued invasion of the Dabiang Second Cavalry Regiment.
Rather than causing such an irreparable loss, it is better to act now.
As soon as he heard Menso's order to attack, Dante was the first to come out, and his target was naturally Taylor, the deputy commander of Dabiang's 2nd Cavalry Regiment. (To be continued......)
