Chapter 31: The Shock of the Blade Car

  Chapter Thirty-One: The Shock of the Blade Car

  Rumble...

  The hooves of the heavy cavalry were like thundering tanks, carrying a strong sense of oppression, as if the air itself had congealed.

  Three hundred paces is merely a matter of ten or more seconds for heavy cavalry, and this distance is also the most threatening when charging.

  Even if it were a strong Orc infantry, facing such heavy cavalry charges head-on would be unstoppable.

  Even if the beastman is strong and powerful, it is still a flesh-and-blood animal. The charge of this heavy cavalry can knock even a row of iron men flying.

  At this moment, the beastman soldiers in the front row suddenly and quickly divided to both sides, and two strangely shaped objects were pushed out.

  This thing has two wings like a giant bird, but these wings are not feathers, they are made of metal. The two wings are now fully open, and in the middle of the two wings, a cold light flashes with a crescent moon blade.

  When Carus saw this strange bird carriage, he had a bad feeling in his heart.

  As expected, when the heavy cavalry charged to about one hundred and fifty paces away, two cold lights suddenly flew out from the bird cart, like two huge silver plates with a diameter of nearly two meters, accompanied by two sharp whistling sounds, like some kind of giant bird's strange cry.

  These two silver discs moved extremely fast, and in the blink of an eye, they arrived in front of the heavy cavalry. Suddenly, a burst of "popping" sounds was heard, and those war horses suddenly flew out one after another.

  That's right, they flew out, but their legs were left on the ground, and only their bodies flew out.

  Two sharp discs cut off the legs of more than a dozen horses in front.

  That's the power of Blader.

  First appearance, shocking to the extreme, those heavy cavalry war horses' legs were also wearing hard armor, and yet they could still cut off several rows of horse legs in a row, only a blade wheel like this could do it.

  The warhorses of the heavy cavalry only had no armor on their lower legs, but when the cavalry was moving at high speed, it was difficult for long-range weapons such as bows and arrows to hit the horse's lower legs. The riders and the upper body of the horses were all wearing thick armor, so bows and arrows could hardly penetrate them. Therefore, in this era, long-range attacks did not pose a great threat to heavy cavalry.

  This is also one of the reasons why heavy cavalry could run amok, but today, the scythe chariot, a weapon that for the first time gave heavy cavalry a strong obstruction in a frontal charge.

  "What is that thing?" Whether it was the heavy cavalry charging from behind or the bandits like Kalos watching from behind, their eyes were almost bulging out in incredulity.

  What kind of weapon can cut through several rows of heavy cavalry in one go?

  This weapon is really too shocking.

  Heavily armored heavy cavalry can cut down several rows in a row. If ordinary infantry encounter such a weapon, what would be the result? Suddenly, a group of people will be cut in half at once?

  Imagine a group of infantry charging forward, and suddenly the entire front row of people is cut in half. What kind of visual impact would that have? How shocking would it be?

  The deterrent force is the biggest characteristic of this weapon.

  Although the heavy cavalry behind was still charging under inertia, seeing that the war horses of those heavy cavalry in front were cut off directly, their hearts were suddenly a contraction, and their speed slowed down involuntarily.

  At this time, Xiao Yu on the city wall suddenly shouted loudly with a satisfied smile: "First group, fire!"

  Bang bang......

  A string of sounds rose, and the heavy cavalry charging from behind fell again, several of them rolling around on the ground in a heap. The heavy cavalry behind either trampled directly over or were also tripped up and fell to the ground.

  "Second group, fire!" At this time, Xiao Yu shouted again, and another burst of gunfire rang out. Several more horses fell to the ground.

  At this time, the two chariots had reloaded and another two silver discs flew out. As they watched the two discs flying towards them like shooting stars, the faces of these heavy cavalrymen were filled with despair.

  Pffft...

  Two crescent moon blades passed by, directly cutting off the legs of more than a dozen horses. The knights riding on the horses naturally had their legs cut off as well, and they flew out, falling to the ground, screaming in agony along with the warhorses.

  "First group, fire!" At this time, Xiao Yu shouted again on the city wall, a burst of gunfire sounded like popping beans, but it brought people a sound like death.

  The heavy cavalry charged to the front of the beastman infantry, it only took ten or twenty seconds, after ten or twenty seconds, the beastman soldiers should be scattered, and the robbers behind could follow up and surround them.

  But in those tens of seconds, when the remaining less than two hundred heavy cavalry rushed to the front of the beastman infantry, they had completely lost their powerful impact, and the huge knight guns in their hands were also waving, but they had no effect at all.

  The knight's spear is long and cumbersome, if charged, it will be a nightmare for all professions. Even the heaviest infantry will be pierced by this clumsy knight's spear and stabbed to death directly.

  But without the impact of a charge, the knight's lance became cumbersome.

  The terrain here was originally not open, the beastman infantry was back against the city gate, they only had one chance to charge, if they couldn't cause damage to the beastman infantry, it would be difficult to charge again.

  If they were in the open field, the heavy cavalry would charge once and then come back from another angle to continue charging. However, the terrain here clearly did not give them a second chance to charge again.

  So now they have arrived in front of the Beastmen infantry, and there's no difference with the infantry either.

  On the city wall, muskets were still firing continuously. The dense phalanx of 300 people was just suitable for this kind of shooting with low accuracy but great power.

  Xiao Yu, who came from the era of hot weapons, understood the great effect of concentrated use of hot weapons. Therefore, when these heavy cavalry charged, he did not let the dwarf gunners fire freely, but divided them into two groups to alternate and concentrate their firepower under his command.

  This kind of concentrated gunfire has an extremely huge power, it doesn't require much precision, just coverage.

  The firing of twenty-five muskets, although the range was not very large, was barely enough to counter the charge of three hundred heavy cavalry.

  The heavy cavalry wore heavy armor, seemingly impenetrable to swords and guns, but this was only in theory. In some joints and other areas, the heavy cavalry's armor wasn't that thick after all.

  Even if the musket ball hit the hardest part of the heavy cavalry's armor, it still couldn't penetrate, but inevitably sometimes it would hit the chain mail on the horse's neck, the gap between the knight's chest and abdomen, and some thinner parts of the armor. These places, however, could not withstand the musket balls.

  Although only a few horses could be knocked down each time, it hindered the charge of the heavy cavalry behind. With the occasional addition of heavy firepower from chariots with blades, the combination of both resulted in such great power that it completely disintegrated the charge of the heavy cavalry.

  Roar...

  The heavy cavalry arrived at a close distance and lost its charging power, not even as good as infantry.

  Although they are wrapped in armor, they can still be invulnerable to swords and guns, and can also throw away the knight's gun and attack with a sword, but it depends on what kind of opponent they face.

  If they were ordinary human soldiers, they would be towering above on horseback, like a moving fortress, and could still kill many ordinary soldiers.

  But the orc soldiers didn't buy it at all.

  The beastman soldiers were taught a very simple way to deal with heavy cavalry by Xiao Yu, directly using brute force to overturn the horses and then fight.

  The beastman soldier couldn't withstand the warhorse's rapid charge, but when the warhorse stopped, it was capable of overturning the warhorse.

  Grom didn't make a move, calmly watching Karas as he waited for the powerful warrior to come over. Because Karas was too strong, ordinary beastman infantry weren't his match and would suffer heavy casualties.

  Only Grom can withstand Karthus.

  The other beastmen, however, were not polite at all. They quickly flanked from both sides and charged forward, directly using their shoulders to heavily collide with the warhorse's body, or using axes to heavily chop at the root of the warhorse's legs, which were wearing armor, and violently knocked the powerful warhorse to the ground.

  The heavily armored knight who fell to the ground found it extremely difficult to get back up due to the weight of his armor. The orc soldier approached and swung his large axe horizontally, directly flattening the knight's helmet, causing white brain matter to splatter out.

  "Ah...... Give me up, give me up......" Karus looked at the heavy cavalry which was about to be defeated and hurriedly shouted loudly like a madman, he himself also rushed up quickly.

  But at this moment, the two silver discs flew over again. The robbers who were charging forward were cut off in an instant, all of them being cut off at the waist. Their bodies flew forward due to inertia, while their lower halves took a few steps before falling down.

  Stunning, absolutely stunning visual shock.

  If other soldiers use the blade chariot, it is difficult to use flexibly and must be pulled by a horse. However, two beastman soldiers can directly support each other and move to another position to continue shooting.

  The musketeers also started firing freely, scattering the infantry rushing from a distance. The elf archers supported the beastman infantry below, shooting an arrow at anyone who tried to surround the beastman infantry.

  Musketeers would never dare to do so, their accuracy might just hit the beastman infantry instead. However, the elven archers have enough confidence in their marksmanship that even if there were two entangled beastman soldiers and bandits, they could accurately hit the bandit without injuring the beastman soldier.

  A melee, utter chaos.

  By now, Carus had no other choice but to launch a desperate attack, hoping to turn the tide of battle in his favor through sheer numbers.

  They made several attempts to storm the city walls, to kill the archers on top, but although human infantry was not as good at individual combat as beastman infantry, their shield wall formation was extremely formidable.

  It seems to be a skill they brought with them from the moment of production, twenty-five people densely lined up in a row, shoulder to shoulder, shields covering another person's body, completely in the formation of Alexander's infantry phalanx, firmly guarding a staircase, making it difficult for bandits to climb up.

  They don't need to attack at all, just defend well and the archers behind will help them take care of these bandits.

  Hmmm...

  Along with a flash of golden light, Xiao Yu was delighted to discover that the Great Mage had already reached level 6.
