Rise of the Empire Total War

Chapter 272 Fighting

"The enemy's arrows are coming, raise your shield to defend!"

The moment the coalition archers soared into the air, a warning cry sounded in the Winster army formation. Amidst the shrill shouts, the heavily armored soldiers and the foot imperial knights raised their shields above their heads one after another, covering their bodies in the air. Under the shield, the civilian crossbowmen standing on the periphery hid under the shield raised by the heavily armed sergeant as quickly as possible. A few seconds later, the arrows rained down, jingling on the raised shield, and then bounced off by the curved shield, falling to the ground.

In the first round of salvo, there were no casualties except for a few soldiers who were hit by arrows with tricky angles. After the enemy shot, the civilian crossbowmen who hid in the shields left the shields one after another, raised the loaded crossbows, aimed at the enemy in the distance, and pulled the mechanism again. Immediately afterwards, another burst of crossbows fired With a unique buzzing sound, deadly crossbow bolts flew out at high speed, and one of the crossbow bolts smashed the edge of a wooden shield raised by a peasant soldier. The crossbow bolt with the armor-piercing effect pierced his skull and flew out from the other end, bringing out a large amount of blood and viscous brains. No interest.

"Withdraw the line of defense, the fifth (heavy sergeant) brigade and the second (walking imperial knights) brigade erect their shields to meet the enemy!"

After the third round of salvo, the enemy had rushed to a position only ten meters away from the army formation. Immediately afterwards, Charles drew out his sword and roared loudly at the army formation in front of him. The civilian crossbowmen withdrew into the channel set aside by the heavily armored sergeants and the foot imperial knights. After all the crossbowmen withdrew into the line of defense, the channel was quickly closed, and the soldiers put their shields in front of them, ready to meet the charge from the enemy.

"Fifth (Heavy Sergeant) Battalion, meet the enemy with spears!"

"call!"

The brigade commander of the 5th Heavy Armored Sergeant Brigade gave an order, and the soldiers in the front row bowed down one after another, raised their shields obliquely, and inserted the protruding part of the bottom into the soil. Then their spears were placed on the shields, pointing at them only a few meters away from the defense line. Enemies who are less than ten meters away look beyond the shield, and they can even see the freckles on the enemy's face clearly.

"Charge! Kill all the Winsters!"

"Hold on, for the Empire!"

boom!

Within a few breaths, the two armies collided heavily, and the sound of the collision between shields was deafening. Under the violent charge of the coalition forces, the heavily armored soldiers in the front row were knocked down one after another, before they could struggle. After getting up, all kinds of weapons were stabbed from their heads. The chain mail they wore couldn't protect their bodies. After a series of dull iron tools piercing into the flesh, the heavily armored soldiers who fell on the ground were stabbed bloody. , can no longer get up.

bump!

At the moment when the two armies collided,

As soon as some experienced veterans were short, their shields lifted up the enemies who hit them, and then fell heavily on the ground behind them. Then they quickly returned to defense, blocking the attacks from the enemies, and the enemies they overturned He was suddenly thrown to the ground, and before he could react, several spears pierced him, leaving several big holes in his body.

"Hold on! For the Empire! For Caesar! For God!"

Charles' shouting was quickly drowned out by the noise of the battlefield, but many soldiers still heard his shouting, and they immediately shouted loudly. The soldiers also shouted one after another. They shouted the empire, shouted Caesar, shouted God, and fought bloody battles.

In the melee, the foot imperial knights guarding the two wings bear the heaviest attack pressure. Because they line up by the stream, they avoid the embarrassing situation of being attacked from many sides. In the frontal battle, they wield the terrifying mace And the mace, knock down any enemy who dares to fight with him, as long as he is hit by a heavy mace and mace, no matter which part it is, he will suffer very serious injuries.

boom!

A hammer hit the enemy's shield in front of him, feeling the slight numbness coming from the tiger's mouth, the commander of the first company of the second brigade roared, threw the shield on the ground directly, and stretched out one hand to grab the enemy The shield was torn apart heavily, and the enemy hiding behind the shield was instantly exposed within his attack range. Immediately afterwards, the mace in his hand swung high and hit the enemy's forehead heavily, only to hear a crisp sound With the sound of bones breaking, the enemy's forehead was sunken directly, and blood mixed with brains splashed out. Before the man could even utter a scream, he fell limply to the ground.

"For the Empire!"

After smashing an enemy to death, the company captain raised his weapon high and shouted to the sky, but at this moment, an enemy took the opportunity to attack him and slashed his iron sword at his waist, but was blocked by the half armor he was wearing. Hearing the sound of clang, the iron sword was actually bounced off by the armor. The sneak attacker looked at all this in surprise. Before he could react, he saw a black shadow falling from the sky and hitting his face heavily. In an instant, he only felt His eyes were blood red, and the severe pain spread out like a flood, and then his eyes turned black, and he completely lost consciousness.

Kicking the attacker's body over with one kick, the company captain glanced at the white marks on his waist, and a trace of fear arose in his heart. The brains and pieces of meat, while picking up the shield that he threw on the ground, attacked the other enemies.

On the other side, far away from the infantry battlefield, the cavalry of the two armies were fighting fiercely. After luring the cavalry of the coalition army to a farther place, the imperial knights turned their horses and laid down the heavy cavalry under the strong onlookers of the cavalry sergeants. guns, and launched the most violent charge on the pursuing enemy cavalry. Facing the charge of heavy cavalry from Europe in the Middle Ages, the indigenous knights in this world were caught off guard and shot down one after another by the exaggerated heavy cavalry. Longer, usually before the coalition knights hit them, their lances knocked down the enemy and fell off the horse.

When the two armies staggered, people fell on their backs. Many knights of the coalition army were shot down and fell off their horses. Before they struggled to get up, they were trampled heavily by the horses that came up behind them. After the war horse left, the corpse lying on the ground had been stepped on several sunken holes, bloody and bloody, and almost no human figure could be seen.

After the charge, the knights gave up the shattered lances that got in the way, and pulled out the secondary weapons around their waists, striking at the surrounding enemies. The mace is more lethal. It only needs to be hit once, and the person who is hit will be injured internally, vomit blood, and lose combat power in an instant.
