183. Containment and Counterattack

The war broke out without any suspense.

The clever wolf no longer attacked Sean or Rena alone, but retreated into the army as soon as possible.

A fourth-level elite unit can easily annihilate a third-level regular army in terms of combat effectiveness, but this is when the same strength and the level of the commander is not far behind. Like the regular army of up to 2,000 troops that Sean and the others are facing now, unless it is Reina's troops or a full strength of 500 people, then it is still possible to defeat the other party, but now it is absolutely impossible.

Not to mention, the combat effectiveness of Rena's current light cavalry unit is even more than half, after all, all the cavalry's drinking water was used to share with Cecilia's Guards, resulting in the current situation of these war horses is a little weak.

"Rena, use the aura of command!" Sean immediately shouted when he saw the other party's army act at the first time.

But in response to Sean, it was Reina's somewhat dazed face: "Command aura? What is that? ”

Hearing Rena's words, Sean was slightly stunned, and then realized that reality and games are two worlds that are completely different!

In the game, players use skills to confirm through skill commands, basically only need a slight movement of the mind to immediately cast, for real master players, even can cast multiple skill combinations in an instant. However, in reality, this situation is absolutely impossible, not to mention the various stun times generated by powerful skills, even if it is the connection and use of skills, it is necessary to take into account the bearing capacity of the body.

In the past, Sean would also have injured his internal organs by using skills like Sprint Stop.

Of course, the most important thing is that aura skills do not exist in this world!

Sean can discover through the True Eye that Rena does possess aura skills, but these skills do not exist in Rena's personal subjective consciousness. In other words, for Sean, the so-called aura skill is just a slogan for Rena to boost morale.

Thinking of this, Sean opened his mouth and immediately shouted, "Just like the charge cry you launched that night!" ”

Rena was slightly stunned. Immediately reacted. In her opinion, this kind of shouting can indeed make the blood in her body boil more, not only will her attention become more concentrated, but her combat effectiveness will also be improved, and the biggest benefit is that the cavalry under her command will become willing to die, which is extremely beneficial to the battle.

Rena didn't know much about aura skills, so she simply thought that Sean asked her to shout slogans to boost the morale of the entire army. In the current situation, it is true that only in this way can the morale of the entire army be boosted, because they really have no way out.

"For the sake of honor!" Rena raised her gun and shouted.

The war horse under the crotch raised its forefeet like a fly. The man stood up, and the neighing of the war horse resounded through the clouds.

"For the sake of honor!" All the cavalry shouted in response.

The blood in the body begins to boil.

Sean's gaze began to become calm, although there were still nearly a hundred infantry in the team, but in fact, there were less than fifty people who could actually fight, and nearly half of the others were wounded soldiers. Therefore, the tactics of fighting the enemy army are the most unrealistic. The only thing they can use is the defensive counter-attack tactic - all infantry defends. Let Rena lead the cavalry unit in a charge battle.

This tactic is very demanding in terms of physical strength and defense. Therefore, the fifteen points of stamina and defense added to the command aura are extremely important. On top of that, the Command Aura also increases movement speed and is immune to 35% damage from ranged attacks, allowing Sean's infantry defense to move while fighting without being completely surrounded by enemy forces. In the same way, Sean was prepared for the worst. That is, even if they are forced into positional warfare, they can rely on the thirty impact shields they have recovered to lay a strong defensive line, and the only ranged attacks to worry about are also exempted from a certain amount of damage by the ability attached to the Command Aura.

All the tactics are just for the sake of longevity.

Under the coordinated command of Sean and Cecilia. All the infantry has already begun to move. And Rena has already led the entire cavalry unit to quickly pull away to the left to prevent being surrounded by the opposing army's already charging troops, so that no matter how strong Rena's cavalry unit is, it will lose all value.

However, when Sean saw that Reina's entire cavalry unit was not as fast as the previous night, he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and then opened the personal attributes panel.

It's just that at this glance, he was stunned.

Because the aura skill that Rena casts at this moment is not the aura of command that Sean wants, but the aura of war that greatly strengthens the combat ability of the troops!

If Sean and Rena and the others are allowed to charge, then the effect of this aura is undoubtedly excellent. But the current situation is that Sean needs to rely on long-lasting combat ability to consume the enemy's combat power, so the aura of war is worthless to the entire infantry unit around Sean.

But now, Sean really can't say anything, he can only quickly change the goal of the battle.

The entire infantry began to retreat rapidly under Sean's command, distancing themselves from the other side.

According to the normal situation, the wolf must have ordered the whole army to pursue, but now there are Rena and her two hundred light cavalry eyeing each other, of course the wolf does not dare to order the whole army to pursue easily, otherwise if Rena directly charges from the side and beheads the troops, it may lead to chaos in the entire army.

Sure enough, when he saw Sean retreating, the wolf really didn't dare to let all the soldiers charge.

Four hundred pikemen and two hundred sword and shield men were left behind to protect five hundred archers - pikes were known to be extremely advantageous against cavalry, but this advantage referred to a perfect spear defense formation, not a pikemen unit, so two hundred sword and shield men were needed to cooperate with four hundred pikemen to set up a spear forest defense array. If Rena dared to charge the archers, she would be greeted by a steel line of 400 spears, a defense system that had been proven in countless wars to be the most suitable against the light cavalry.

And this cavalry unit under Rena's command, although it can indeed exert the power of heavy cavalry by relying on halo skills, is essentially light cavalry. That's not going to change. Therefore, when seeing that the wolf did not hesitate to adopt this defensive system, Rena's light cavalry unit immediately made a circular U-turn on the battlefield on one side, and no longer charged against this archer unit.

But even if Reina succeeded in containing the opponent's more than 1,000 troops in one fell swoop, Sean and the others still had to face as many as 900 people!

This is a sword force!

The so-called war sword is a set of troops in the world of miracles with swordsmen as the main force to attack fortified battles. This includes the three types of swordsmen: one-handed swords and round shields, two-handed broad-edged swords, and longswords, although there are some adjustments to be made in individual cases or if the commander has a special preference. However, it is clear that the wolf does not have a special preference, because this nine-hundred-man sword force is composed of the three most common swordsmen.

Swordsman is a third-order advanced profession for warriors, and it varies according to personal habits and development directions. Naturally, this will also extend to different advanced professions.

Swordsmen who use a light shield and a one-handed sword are called shield swordsmen, and the biggest difference between them and sword and shield soldiers is that this type of class is not a defensive class, although they have a certain degree of defense due to wearing a round shield, but they sacrifice both attack power and speed. However, in the battlefield environment, this class has the highest survival rate, in other words. It is a profession born specifically for war.

Of course. At the moment, these "shield swordsmen" are not real shield swordsmen, but are just imitating the outfit of the shield swordsman, and the real shield swordsman is a fourth-order class.

A swordsman with a long sword is the most common attire in the entire swordsman system, and it is also a symbol of the profession of true "swordsman". Whether it's strength, agility, or stamina, this class maintains an extremely balanced growth stats. Although it has always been evaluated as mediocre in the game, there is also a saying that "mediocrity is king", after all, the balance of data in all aspects means that there are no obvious weaknesses.

A swordsman with a two-handed broad-edged sword, on the other hand, is a swordsman profession that clearly focuses on the growth of strength. Although this class is essentially a third-order swordsman, they actually strengthen their strength, but they also reduce their agility and stamina. The advanced feature of this class is the fourth-order "heavy swordsman", which is a class that is diametrically opposed to the "fast swordsman", but like the "shield swordsman" on the battlefield today, these swordsmen with broad-bladed swords are also not really fourth-order classes.

It should have been a fourth-order profession's outfit, but on the current battlefield, it was configured on a third-order profession, which may be a great threat to others, but for a seasoned person like Sean, he couldn't be more aware of the flaws of doing so.

Whether it is a shield swordsman or a heavy swordsman, they will not be able to give full play to their maximum characteristics because of the problem of rank, but their shortcomings will be directly magnified.

Just imagine, a collocation that can only be mastered by the fourth order appears on the third order class, which is definitely not a strengthening, but will completely wipe out the original advantages of the class. It's like a person who obviously has a lack of strength but fortunately has an advantage in speed, but he has to use a heavy sword that his own strength can't completely master, so doesn't he even have a speed advantage?

So at this moment, the one who rushed to the front was the shield swordsman, followed by the real swordsman, and the swordsman who used the two-handed broad-edged sword fell behind because of the weight.

But in Sean's eyes, the real most threatening person is the swordsman in the middle.

Of course, in terms of the current size of Sean's troops, to paraphrase the terminology in the game, that is, this sword force can kill Sean alive. Not to mention, there were five hundred archers from three hundred meters away.

Rain of arrows, suddenly falling!

But at this time, there was a shocking scene on the battlefield! (To be continued......)
