Chapter 1387 The Goblin Bow and Arrow Troops Show Their Power
The Demon Emperor and the Beast Emperor each sent 10,000 troops to attack the city. It was a tentative attack and a tacit cooperation between the two sides.
It's just that their cooperation seems to be just fighting on their own, each choosing a section of the city wall to attack, and there is no intention of teaming up at all.
In response to this situation, Jimo Yi let the gods who had fought against the demons be in charge of the attacked area, and let the enemies of the goblins and wild beasts face off.
In the past, Kaska and Heros might have panicked when accepting the assignment assigned by Jimoyi. After all, their race was often defeated by the demon race and wild beastmen in the southern border.
But it's different now.
After the army training method taught by Chen Fang, the army of our own tribe is no longer as useless as before.
Strong obedience, strict discipline, where to fight, know how to unite, and cooperate closely. These new qualities that appear in their soldiers have greatly improved the combat capabilities of the army.
If the combat effectiveness of their army was expressed by "one" in the past, now with the same number of people, they can display the combat effectiveness of "five", which is completely different.
Besides the training for soldiers, these officers also learned the military combat theory and method compiled by him under the arrangement of Chen Fang, and studied such magnificent masterpieces as "Sun Tzu's Art of War" and "Thirty-Six Strategies", Let them know how to lead troops to fight, how to get the greatest results with the least cost, and let the officers of the two ethnic groups really know that soldiers can be trained in this way, and wars are fought in this way.
Therefore, after witnessing the changes in themselves and the soldiers, as well as the overall changes in the army, the officers of the goblin and god descendants of the new army no longer have the mentality of "panic before the battle" as before. It is as if he has obtained the "dragon slaying skill", and he can't wait to display it immediately in a state full of fighting spirit.
"Don't worry, as far as the ten thousand demons are concerned, our department will definitely let them come and go." Hros said confidently.
Caska, who is the commander of the goblin clan, also said: "This time, I will also make the wild beasts bleed, and let them know that our clan is no longer as easy to bully as it used to be in the southern border."
Jimo Yi was very satisfied with the attitude of the two, but at the same time he did not forget to ask.
"It's good that you have such self-confidence, but don't take it lightly. The commander-in-chief said that an arrogant soldier must be defeated. I hope you will always remember it, you know."
Kaska and Heros nodded heavily, expressing that they would not commit the mistake of underestimating the enemy.
Then the two left to take command of their own area where they were about to fight.
Soon, the battle started.
The first to fight was the area that the goblins were in charge of.
The wild orcs rushed towards the city frantically. They were very savage, they had no formation, they only knew how to charge blindly.
Under the command of Caska, the goblin soldiers on the top of the city carried out round after round of long-range strikes mainly with bows and arrows.
What's more, it adopts an elevation angle projection that their goblins have never used before. This kind of archery method allows arrows to rise to the limit in the air, and with the help of the acceleration of gravity, they fall towards the ground sharply.
By the way, the goblins used to fight with bows and arrows only with flat shooting. They had never thought of or had contact with the skill of throwing.
At first, when accepting this archery method, the goblins who claimed that no one knew archery better than them were very repulsed, because they felt that throwing could not control the distance and could not cause damage to the enemy. It was a very backward method. So it is very repulsive to learn to master.
However, under the arrangement of Chen Fang, after a contest between the elves and human troops, the elves witnessed the power of bow and arrow throwing with their own eyes, and let them know the difference between direct shooting and throwing, and the difference between throwing and throwing. It is a complete fallacy that the lethality is not as good as direct fire.
Let's get down to business.
The wild beastmen under the city rushed forward, unaware that a rain of arrows was raining down on their heads, and by the time someone found out, it was already too late.
"ah"
The rain of arrows fell, screaming, and many wild beasts lay down dead with arrows in their heads. Even if they didn't die, the arrows in their shoulder joints got stuck in them, making their arms unable to move. If someone foolishly pulled out the arrows, Then the barbs on the arrow will directly tear their muscles and ligaments, completely disabling that arm.
After a wave of attacks, almost seven or eight hundred orcs were knocked down directly, which can be described as a remarkable result.
Kaska was delighted to see it from the top of the wall.
If they hadn't mastered projectiles before, the goblins would have relied on luck to kill the rough-skinned and thick-skinned wild beastmen with direct shots.
After all, for frontal attacks, as long as the vitals are not hurt, the wild beastman can still act as usual with his strong body. If it is equipped with a shield, basically the most powerful weapon of the elves is useless. The place where the wild beasts make the elves the most scruples.
But it's different now.
"Quick, raise your shield."
The Wild Beastman, who had lost his manpower under a wave of attacks from the sky, did not dare to rush forward anymore. Under the command of the commander, the shield in his hand was no longer placed in front of his body, but raised above his head to defend his head. Arrows rained down from above.
Not to mention, this is really effective. With the defense of the shield, the wild beastman no longer falls down.
Kaska saw from the top of the city that the orcs had learned to be smart, but he was not in a hurry, and gave an order without haste.
Then another bow and arrow troop went up to the city wall, shooting wildly out of the city through the battlements, and the bow and arrow troop that was throwing, formed a cross-fire network from top to bottom.
This time the Brutal Beastman was miserable. He defended his head but couldn't defend his front. He wanted to defend his front but he had to give up his head. Therefore, in this intertwined and dense rain of arrows, the Brutal Beast soldiers were either shot in the chest The heart, or the Tianling cover was pierced, and there were a lot of casualties under the helplessness.
"Hahaha, I don't know if after today, the wild beasts will still say that the bows and arrows of our goblins are weak."
Kaska looked at the wild orcs under the city who were constantly being harvested by bows and arrows, feeling very happy and elated.
At the same time, in his heart, he felt admiration and gratitude for Chen Fang who taught them this method of warfare.
If it weren't for Chen Fang's all-inclusive teaching, how could the goblins kill the wild orcs as easily as today, instead of being as powerless as before.
"In the future, my goblin clan will definitely be able to make a name for themselves on the mainland battlefield by relying on this method of warfare."
Caska clenched his fists very excitedly.
He felt that the goblin bow and arrow troops who had mastered this method of warfare were invincible.
But is it so?
Certainly not, at least Chen Fang has many ways to abolish this kind of tactics, such as the Roman infantry shield phalanx, which is enough to restrain this kind of throwing and direct shooting tactics.
However, before this phalanx appeared, the bow and arrow troops of the goblin clan could indeed be invincible on the battlefield by relying on this method of warfare.
