136. Bloody War
A minotaur swung his left hand and smashed it against a soldier's shield, knocking him back - although the standard armor of the Silent Mountains was made of special synthetic iron, which was comparable in effect to heavy armor and heavy armor, but in reality the weight of these equipment was not very high. Therefore, in the face of more powerful forces, it is difficult to rely on the weight of equipment to stabilize the center of gravity, so in a strict sense, the Silent Mountains are just empty of heavy infantry, but there is no power of heavy infantry.
After a punch pushed the enemy back, the minotaur's right hand also raised his spear and stabbed at the other soldier of the Silent Mountains on his right.
Faced with the minotaur's spear, the soldier of the Silent Mountain Legion hurriedly shielded himself with his shield.
There are sparks flying.
But the sharp tip of the spear did not pierce the heavy shield, and of course, with the power of the Minotaur's burst, it was enough to make the soldier of the Silent Mountains unable to stand still.
I saw that the soldier of the Silent Mountain Range had retreated a few steps before finally stabilizing his figure.
But when he stabilized his figure, what he saw was a shocking image of the minotaur striding towards him. Perhaps because of the years of fighting, or perhaps due to the usual training, the soldier's mind quickly stabilized after a moment of shock, and then he clenched the spear in his hand and responded with a fierce straight stab attack at the minotaur - this attack action, he did not stab blindly or panickedly, but aimed at the throat of the minotaur.
Under normal circumstances, the blow unleashed by this soldier of the Silent Mountains was indeed worthy of the words "lightning and fire".
But for the Minotaur. Such an attack was not enough to be feared - not to mention that he was a member of the Thunder Heroes, and the Minotaur was much stronger than the human in terms of racial talent alone. So in the face of this can almost be said to be a blow of lightning. The minotaur stretched out his left hand to hold the gun for a moment, and then with the same forceful stroke, the soldier of the Silent Mountain Range was thrown out and hit several companions next to him, which immediately made several people chaotic.
This situation is a great time for the Thunder Lion!
Brake time. Several Thunder Lion soldiers next to him waved their weapons without hesitation, and landed fiercely on these soldiers of the Silent Mountain Range. In this state of tough attack, no matter how good the equipment used by the soldiers of the Silent Mountains is. It can't reach such a round of attacks.
In fact, in the vast majority of battles, heavy soldiers often die not directly from the attack of their weapons, but from internal injuries such as violent impacts.
It barely lasted long. The soldiers of the Silent Mountains who had fallen to the ground did not move. Apparently dead.
However, before the warriors of the Thunder Lion could rejoice, a blood-colored spear tip had already leaked out of the chest and abdomen of a bear man. The intense pain caused the bear man to let out a roar, but this result was only in exchange for the blood that suddenly spit out from his mouth, and in the face of such a result, several comrades of the Thunder Lion next to him were naturally angry.
But before they could make any counter-attacks, several spears came out of the bearman's chest and abdomen.
Soon, another soldier from the Silent Mountains quickly approached, and then blocked the right rear of the bear man.
I could only hear the sound of a "bell". The bear-man's attack with a sharp swing of his spear towards his back was also blocked by a team of Silent Mountain soldiers who cooperated tacitly. And this sound is an extraordinarily heavy weapon block. As if it was an agreed code, after the bearman's death-inducing counterattack failed, several spears that had been pierced out of the body were also withdrawn at this moment, leaving only a few wounds that were constantly bleeding out.
No matter how strong the bear man's self-healing ability and vitality were, it was impossible for him to last long in the face of several blood holes between his chest and abdomen that were so close to each other, not to mention such a dense attack, the internal organs in his body had already been stabbed.
But the decisive blow did not come from these wounds, but from the rear through the skull, after inflicting these wounds to reduce the bearman's attention and vigilance!
As the bear man fell, the Thunder Lion soldiers who had already launched an attack on the Silent Mountain Soldiers who had joined forces with a roar became even more fanatical, and even began to disregard their own injuries and safety.
For a while, this small local battlefield that took place in the entire battlefield became even more chaotic. However, this chaos was not calm, but like a ripple gradually expanding, it soon began to affect a larger area, involving more and more soldiers on both sides into the melee mode. At this moment, the so-called formation and coordination have almost become a joke, and the only thing that can drive is the instinct of the participants themselves and the physical memories formed over the years.
In fact, as early as the beginning of this battle, the Silent Mountains were in the middle of a loss.
Because a series of tactical strikes from Alfred not only caused the Silent Mountain Range to directly lose more than 500 people, but also plunged the Silent Mountain Range into a brief chaos, and these are the best advantages that the Thunder Lion can use. Therefore, when the Thunder Lion sliced into the Silent Mountains like a hot table knife, the entire formation of the Silent Mountains was completely cut in two.
But it has to be said that the core main force of this Silent Mountain Range is indeed worthy of their name.
After a brief period of confusion, they quickly launched a counterattack, leveling the situation for a while, at least so that the gap between the two sides did not cause a significant change. More importantly, of course, there were more than 2,000 men in the Silent Mountains than the Thunder Lion, and 4,000 of the Thunder Lion were light infantry outfits - when the melee began, the 2,000 archers dropped their bows and arrows and threw themselves into melee combat.
It's just that at the beginning, although there was no obvious gap, it was a multi-racial soldier facing the Thunder Lion. The Silent Mountains still looked a little uncomfortable. In most cases, injuries that are fatal to normal humans are enough to be fatal, but in front of bearmen, minotaurs, lionmen and other races. But it is not enough to be lethal at all, because the vigorous vitality always allows them to hold on longer, and the dying counterattack from them is also extremely fierce.
However, in any situation of battle, there will always be corresponding countermeasures.
As a result, in the case that these "aliens" could not be solved one-on-one, the soldiers of the Silent Mountains learned the most basic squad combat, which had a wide range of results. For a while, not only did the situation re-stabilize, but because of the numerical advantage, it began to gradually press the Thunder Lion to fight.
Of course, this didn't last long.
Because the Lion of Thunder has a more core force. Thunder Heroes.
If the Silent Mountain Range and the Thunder Lion are both fourth-level legions, then the actual combat effectiveness level of the Thunder Hero Division is quasi-fifth, or even fifth-level. When such a group of people with stronger combat power began to shine on the battlefield, it was not optimistic for the Silent Mountains. If not, there is an advantage in numbers. The Silent Mountains can be said to be in a completely disadvantageous situation. It's just that if it continues to develop in its current form, the Silent Mountain Range will eventually enter the rhythm of rout.
Of course, this is also not a good result for the Thunder Lion.
Because anyone with a slight eye for the battle situation knows that the result of such a rout will inevitably occur when the number of people on both sides drops to about 5,000. And with the numerical advantage of the Silent Mountain Range, when the Silent Mountain Range is reduced to less than 5,000 people, the number of Thunder Lion will probably be less than 4,000. If the will of the Silent Mountains were to be stronger, then it would only be reduced to 3,000 men because it would be the same number as the Thunder Lion. Thus producing a rout.
Such a result can be regarded as a big defeat for the Thunder Lion. Not even a pyrrhic victory.
After all, the Thunder Lion has their own pride, because when they faced so many elite troops in Dabiang, they did not have such a result, and it would be a shame for them to have such a result in the face of the private army of the Lane nobles. And it was precisely because of this shame that the Thunder Lion's attack became more violent, and the pressure on the Silent Mountains increased.
However, in such a chaotic battle, there is a battle in one place, and no one dares to intervene.
That's at the very center of the battlefield.
It was a battle between the two commanders!
In terms of strength, Alfred is actually slightly lacking.
As the core and main force of the five forces of the Silent Mountain Range, its commander may not be the commander of the Silent Mountain Legion, but he must be the strongest person in the entire Silent Mountain Legion. Only such a person is qualified to be the commander of the strongest force in this Silent Mountain Range.
And this person's personal strength has reached the level of the lower gold.
In a way, Alfred, who is only at the pinnacle of silver, is naturally slightly lacking compared to the other party.
But.
In terms of equipment, the commander of the first unit of the Silent Mountains is not comparable to Alfred at all.
Just such a gold-grade demonic weapon as the Flame Lion Fangs was enough to make this person with the strongest personal strength in the Silent Mountain Legion dare not act rashly. Therefore, in this battle that broke out between the commanders of the two sides, the commander of the Silent Mountain Range, who had the strength of a strong man but no corresponding weapons and equipment, was naturally extremely aggrieved, and the only thing he could do was to rely on his slight superiority in strength to maneuver with Alfred, trying to give a fatal blow through the flaws.
But this idea is good, but for Alfred it is simply nonsense, because before he became the leader of the Thunder Lion, Alfred was already the leader of a mercenary group, and in order to avenge his mercenary group, he hibernated for many years and finally won by himself. So in terms of personal combat experience and skill, Alfred is confident that he will not lose to anyone.
Moreover, even if there are one or two flaws, Alfred is confident that he can block them, because after the Battle of Dabiang, Alfred replaced the three magic patterns on his equipment: he completely abandoned the advantage of speed, and instead paid more attention to the advantage of strength and endurance, which made him naturally more durable in battle, and at the same time, he was able to withstand more attacks caused by accidents.
In various ways, Alfred's personal strength may not be as good as those really strong in the Golden Realm, but in terms of consciousness, attitude, thinking, and cognition, Alfred is not much worse than those strong in the Golden Realm. He knows where his greatest strengths are, so he naturally knows how to make the most of them.
When the two sides exchanged attacks and blocks again, Alfred suddenly deliberately slowed down by half a beat, revealing a small flaw.
Alfred knew that he and the other party had been in a stalemate for a long time, and the strength and spirit required in this process was already a very big burden for any master of the Silver Realm. In such a situation, there will inevitably be situations such as physical decline or lack of concentration, or slowing down of movements, so the only thing he needs to do is use this point in time to set a trap.
And when Alfred saw that the opponent's attack really became more violent, he began to smile in his heart.
Because Alfred knew that the other party had already taken the bait.
If it were any golden powerhouse, I am afraid that he would have taken advantage of the little flaw that Alfred had revealed just now and made the first move. However, the strong man did not stop there, so Alfred knew that this was a very cautious opponent.
In the face of such an opponent, Alfred naturally has his own set of mature tactics.
When the battle between the two sides was deadlocked for another two minutes, Alfred once again revealed a flaw. Although this flaw was fatal enough, it felt like it was deliberately tricked, and just as Alfred expected, the other party really did not fall for it. But then, Alfred accelerated the pace of his offensive, revealing a kind of impatience after the opponent was not fooled.
Almost as soon as this rhythm of battle appeared, Alfred saw the corners of the opponent's mouth slightly raised—although the range of movements was extremely small, it was still keenly captured by Alfred. This made Alfred smile even stronger, because he knew that his opponent had really taken the bait this time, and the only thing he needed to do was to reveal a small flaw again in a minute, even smaller than the first one.
It's time to end the fight. - Glancing at the chaotic battlefield out of the corner of his eye, feeling the continuous fall of his comrades, Alfred's inner anger was rising. (To be continued......)
