Chapter 368: The military heart is useless (Part 2)
Chapter 368: The morale of the army is useless (Part 2)
A battalion general suddenly spoke, "Your Highness, the princess sent us here to obey your command. Even if it is a battle of death, we will not retreat. The enemy is strong and the morale of the army is useless. This is what the military book says, so please give orders."
Salin was stunned and then thought that the four battalions handed over to him by Rex were all soldiers who had experienced battles. He didn't have to encourage the morale of the troops, so these battalions would naturally do it. The most important thing at the moment was to announce the strategic plan so that the battalions would be fully prepared.
The enemy has a large force and the morale of the army is useless. There is another sentence that this camp will not say - only fight to the death.
There is no such emotion in the hearts of the Skochenya people, and in the hearts of these generals who were born in Qin Yin, it is not a terrifying thing to die on the battlefield.
If you win, you will get fame and fortune. If you lose, you will have honor.
"Since that's the case, I want to launch a raid on land while the enemy is not yet firmly established. The purpose of this raid is to let the enemy know that our White Bone Castle is also an elite soldier and cannot be ignored."
The generals nodded and agreed. Although this action was very risky, Salin was right. Sarin said it first and gave the enemy a blow to make the enemy nervous is the real purpose of building the Bone Castle here.
"In this attack, after thirty hours, my first battalion will dispatch two thousand infantry. You four will draw heavy cavalry from each battalion and replace them with skeleton war horses. I have prepared 100 chariots here, which are filled with tiny oil and a hundred crossbow chariots."
"Your Highness, there are only two thousand infantry?" A battalion general thought he had heard it wrong. If only two thousand infantry were left, it would be difficult to break through the defense line built by the enemy. If the cavalry could not rush in, it would be in vain.
"The Great Magic Muen will accompany you. At that time, there will be ten giant bone demons responsible for destroying the enemy's peripheral defense."
Muen nodded quickly, indicating that he was confident.
"My two thousand infantry are wearing magic armor, and they are also magic weapons in their hands. They can never rest and fight for more than six hours." Salin gave the generals the final explanation. Magic armor not only provides defense, but also serves as the power for soldiers to fight. If you cut down with a light sword, the power will be provided by the magic circle, and the effect is like the chopping of a heavy axe.
The generals of Kushui County showed an envious expression. Their soldiers were wearing semi-magical armor, but they had excellent defenses and were almost completely closed, and were not afraid of low-level magic attacks such as poisonous fog.
Salin then put forward more than ten requirements, and draw infantry units of various skills from the main battalions of the four Kushui County and State to form a mixed battalion of 10,000 people.
These battalions will go down immediately to prepare and draw personnel from various flag groups.
The day passed quickly. When night fell, ten thousand soldiers gathered in front of the Bone Castle. In front of the group of soldiers was an army of undead.
The undead led by the ten giant bone demons, followed by the undead knight, skeleton soldiers, zombies, fangs, and white bone giant ape.
The Winged Skeleton summoned most of the land war undead and formed an army of five thousand undeads.
Even so, the soldiers of Kushui County still had a look of dying with pride. There were only 5,000 undead people, and they could attack a camp of more than 100,000 people, and no one wanted to win.
Salin no longer tried to boost morale. He waved his hand, Muen smiled bitterly, and walked into the undead with his winged skeleton and three jade skeletons.
The team set off slowly. Because there was no road construction, the chariot that Salin had temporarily pieced together was very slow. The Winged Skeleton knew that there were level 8 magicians in the enemy, and did not release the flying undead to reconnaise the enemy situation. The team slowly approached the dock, and used the speed of infantry to advance twenty miles per hour.
This is because of the fear that the cavalry and infantry will be disconnected and take care of the chariots. Otherwise, the skeleton war horses will arrive in at most two hours on a hundred miles.
When each soldier was about to leave, he drank the water of restoration to refresh himself. When the army approached the port, it happened to be two hours after midnight. The camp in front of the port was sparsely lit, with only the periphery, illuminated by magic lamps. On the high arrow tower, the soldiers observed vigilantly.
Salin was not worried about this attack. He was in the central army, with Su and four demons protecting him. Erinno was also by his side, carrying the artifact-like longbow. Inside the arrow sac behind her were twenty-four feather arrows refined by Salin himself.
Elf space arrow, Elf life arrow.
Salin's badge did not restore his attack ability, but his water puppet had been completely restored and he could use the crystal finger.
The central army has no worries, and the rest depends on their own heavy infantry. Those heavy cavalry are the best candidates to kill the enemy's broken soldiers. Skeleton warhors can speed up instantly, and even in narrow areas, these heavy cavalry still have a strong impact.
As for the magicians? Salin has prepared the trap for the enemy's mages, and it depends on whether they can step in.
Yunliu Ren did not set up sporadic outposts a mile away from the Daying like Qin Yinren. Everyone was huddled in the Daying, and the Daying built a wall with three layers inside and outside.
The undead scout sent the information back, and Salin sighed. Yunliuren's navy and army are really two completely different creatures. The navy is outrageously powerful, but the army is a mess. Such a battalion is unfairly accused of not being attacked by sneak attacks.
Salin didn't know that he had too high vision and had contact with the elite Qin Yin or Kushui County. These troops were rare on the entire continent. Yunliu Ren's camp was like an iron barrel, and there were people on the towering arrow towers to observe with an alchemy telescope. Near the camp wall, a team of soldiers passed by every ten minutes and did not rest all night.
Salin's sneak attack can also be said to be an open attack. His army had been exposed one mile away from the camp. Salin pointed to the high arrow tower in the distance, and the soldiers who wanted to blew the alarm. Erinno's long bow was in his hand and broke through the air with one arrow.
Almost instantly, the arrow shot into the throat of the Yunliu soldier and passed through the neck bone.
The soldier's trachea was broken first and could not sound the alarm. Then his neck bone was broken and he was completely paralyzed. His body became weak. He accidentally knocked over the crossbow beside him and fell down the arrow tower.
Soon, patrol soldiers came and found the body of the sentry. Now, alarms in Yunliu camp sounded one after another.
This arrow provided an extra minute for Salin's army. The undead army in front had already started and advanced at full speed. In one minute, how far can these undead rush out?
The giant bone demon in front happened to run a mile away. The undead knight behind the giant bone demon was faster, but he just slowed down his speed. When the alarm sounded, the bone blade on the giant bone demon's hand had already cut through a layer of the camp wall.
The giant bone magic power is infinite. They have no wisdom. They have deformed forelimbs. The bone blades that are more than three meters wide are slashed violently. The red copper wall in the middle is cut by the giant bone magic. The giant bone magic continued to slash and continued to widen the passage. The undead had already rushed in and rushed towards Yunliu Ren's tent.
The giant bone demon is slow to move, and has no advantages in addition to its large attack power, and is also very easy to be killed. However, the Winged Skeleton uses the only advantages of the giant bone demon to quickly cut open the camp wall, providing time for his undead army.
A large number of soldiers watching were arranged at the main entrance of Yunliu Ren Camp. When the alarm sounded, the magic apprentice had not yet conveyed specific instructions to them, he heard a deafening sound on the east side of the camp, which was issued by the giant bone demon when it was chopping. Hundreds of soldiers picked up their weapons and rushed to the gap in the camp.
What these hundreds of people encountered was a army of five thousand undeads. It was like a ball of black clouds. Five thousand undeads rushed to the depths of the camp. More than two hundred soldiers on duty were swept by the black clouds and turned into meat mud.
Yunliu people's fleet had actually arrived, but the number of fleets was too large, so most of the soldiers on the warships did not go down the shore and were still waiting for the spare location in the port. In the camp, the soldiers were just over 100,000, and the camp on the side of the pier was still empty.
When the undead army entered, most of Yunliu people were still sleeping. Only one-tenth of the army did not unload their armor according to Yunliu's law. After hearing the magic alarm, these 10,000 people picked up their weapons within half a minute.
Salin's 10,000 troops rushed into Yunliu camp at a wider gap. The beginning was heavy infantry with horses. The combat effectiveness of these heavy infantry under horses was far stronger than riding horses.
The weapon that is unified in heavy infantry is the axe and halberd, weighing 72 kilograms. Without the help of magic armor, the battle time of most heavy infantry can not last three minutes.
In order to build his heavy infantry, Salin spent a lot of money. Each heavy infantry carries dozens of magic cores, including four sets of low-level magic cores, one set of intermediate magic cores, and a scattered replacement magic cores. The function of these magic cores is to be embedded in the magic circle of armor to provide combat power for soldiers.
Many noble magicians are not treated so well. It is conceivable how powerful such heavy infantry will be.
Two thousand heavy infantry destroyed the tents all the way and drove a road more than ten meters wide for the cavalry. Salin led his two hundred personal soldiers to follow the heavy infantry tightly. After a while, he found that there were no magicians in the camp coming out to block his infantry!
This shows that the enemy's powerful mage is still on the ship, and Salin immediately issued an order and made people start setting fire.
The way to set fire is very simple. The infantry set up temporary trenchers outside the camp. The attack distance of the trenchers is probably less than two miles, only a pitiful four. The four trenchers throw the skins and the trench oil is filled with tinder oil. Salin added magic powder to these tinder oils. Once this tinder oil is burned, it cannot be extinguished with water.
The catapult threw oil bags to both sides, and the archers quickly shot out rockets, igniting the oil bags on both sides. On both sides of the path of Salin's sneak attack, there was a blazing fire. There was a heart-wrenching scream in the camp.
Woo woo...
A low horn came from a distance. Yun Liuren had organized a team of more than 10,000 people near the port to fight here. In the sky, a magician wearing a black magic robe flew towards the fire. He did not fly very quickly. Below his body, a team of soldiers riding war horses and rushing through a chaotic barracks. Each of them was wearing magic armor, and the weapon in his hand was a golden spear.
