From Soldier To Emperor

Chapter 44 Hussar

The heavy crossbows of the Ming Army’s heavy crossbowmen have a higher range than the crossbows in the hands of the opposite patrol. When the opposite arrow rain crossbow misses the Ming Army heavy crossbowmen, it has become the end of the strong crossbow, even if it is shot in the mandarin ducks. It’s nothing more than a piece of skinny.

The Ming army archer who was opposite was dead and injured!

The number advantage of the main patrol team is really too big. This kind of team that shoots Richard can not take advantage of it, so Richard issued the command of the general attack!

200 heavy infantrymen of the Ming army formed a tight phalanx, holding a shield in their hands, wearing a suit of iron armor, jogging to the opposite side with the sound of clattering footsteps.

The reinforcements of Dashi Town have all walked out of the city gate at this time, and they are not far from the battlefield of the patrol camp!

Richard doesn’t have much time to waste, he only has to make a desperate move!

This time, Dashi Town took the lead, one after another, and Richard could only win that ray of life by desperately!

When the Ming army’s heavy infantry phalanx was pressing up, the Ming army’s archers did not retreat, holding the enemy’s arrows to cover the Ming army’s heavy infantry phalanx, and at the same time shared part of the firepower of the patrol’s hired crossbowmen.

“Don’t worry about those archers, shoot Richard’s melee soldiers first!”

After seeing Richard’s 200 fearsome iron-clad phalanxes starting to charge, many military leaders quickly ordered the crossbowmen under his command to exhaust themselves. These military leaders were very aware of the gap between the armored and unarmored soldiers in melee combat. How big is it!

If 200 soldiers from the opposite side were forced to rush into the line of a commoner suit per capita, there would not be enough lives to fill!

The most important thing is that the military leaders are very clear about the mercenaries under their hands. If the iron-clad phalanx on the opposite side rushes in, I am afraid that few mercenaries will go up…

It’s already supernormal to let these amateur mercenaries who fight for money shoot against the deadly archers and soldiers under Richard’s hands. Is it possible to expect this group of color-eyed people to suddenly possess the bravery of the green-skinned orcs?

The clanging of arrows keeps coming. The patrol’s crossbowmen use cheap goods purchased by themselves. The high-quality strong bows and hard crossbows don’t mention whether they can be opened or not. The unit price is only Enough to make ninety-nine percent of the mercenaries retreat…

You must know that the high-quality strong bows and crossbows in Datang are all prohibited items for military use. Not only are they expensive to build, they are strictly controlled and can only be used by the regular Han army. The few exposed to the black market are more expensive than light iron armor!

Therefore, the bows and crossbows used by the patrol are basically ordinary folk autonomous step bows and hunting crossbows.

This kind of weapon is used to shoot green-skinned orcs and lycanthrope warriors without any armor, of course, but it is almost the same as a toy bow when dealing with light iron armor…

As a result, the 200 Ming army heavy infantry formed a square formation, relying on a suit of iron armor under the arrow rain without any casualties, rushed to the front of the main patrol army!

In the last ten meters away, the heavy infantrymen of the Ming army uttered a shout, levelled their long spears and launched the final sprint. After a face-to-face encounter, the amateur mercenaries of the front patrol fell hundreds of people!

However, the more terrible consequences erupted under the desperate gazes of the military leaders, and a large platoon of colleagues fell all at once. The amateur mercenaries mainly composed of Semu people did not hesitate to drop their weapons and turned and fled!

The 2,000-man army was torn apart in an instant!

Some military leaders who are highly loyal to Dashi Town even use weapons to kill several mercenaries under their command, but they can’t stop the tendency to flee, because the 200 armored army on the opposite side is rushing forward again and again!

[Ding, congratulations to the host for defeating the main force of the Dashi Town patrol team, winning the battle, completing the prestige task and defeating an enemy army with more than 1,000 troops. The prestige level has been increased from 6 stars to 7 stars, and a new Tier 3 arms template is opened. Hussar.

They can be used as military scouts. , Proficient in equestrian physical fitness is no different from ordinary people, the exchange price per person is 5 luck coins.

Defeated the main force of the Dashi Town patrol team with more than 2,000 people, and killed no more than 10 human skin and flesh warriors, and received 1,000 luck coins as a reward.

Please note that the reward evaluation for defeating the enemy in a battle is mainly linked to the overall overall combat strength, with military strength and weaponry as a secondary factor.

New prestige missions are released: a total of 2000 luck coins will be obtained, and the prestige level (0/2000) can be increased after completing the missions. 】

“Haha, God helps me too!”

After hearing the reward prompt, Richard realized that there were more cavalry options in his redemption interface, and said with a big smile!

Dashi Town does not have a formed cavalry unit. It owns cavalry, which is enough to occupy a natural tactical advantage in the confrontation with the main force of the Dashi Town patrol battalion!

Immediately afterwards, Richard spent all 1,000 Qi Luck Coins in exchange for 200 Ming light cavalry!

When 200 Ming army light cavalry armed with sabers, majestic, and riding war horses appeared on the battlefield Finally, the heads of the patrol team, who tried to save the defeat, turned around and fled.

They know very well that no matter whether the defeated soldiers can be reorganized or not, they cannot stand in front of 200 cavalry!

The rabble of patrols is not meant to fight the cavalry…

However, Richard did not intend to let go of the patrol officers who flee. The army officers who have not escaped when the main patrol force has been defeated are basically people who are’loyal’ to Dashi Town, even this kind of person. After running away, it is impossible to easily bow to Richard.

So, as soon as the 200 Ming light cavalry appeared, they received a strict order from Richard to chase down the chiefs who fled the main patrol team!

It is easy to identify the head of a patrol. As long as it is in armor, it is basically impossible to be a small soldier…

The head of the patrol team, who had no feelings and confidence in Dashi Town, ran away when the main force of the patrol collapsed, and now is no longer visible, so the Ming light cavalry chased and killed mainly the last run. The patrol leader with higher loyalty!

The reinforcements from Dashi Town did not reach the outskirts of the battlefield until 200 Ming army light cavalry chased and killed the head of the last patrol.

At this time, the 200 Ming army heavy infantrymen who were killed in battle had been gathered by Richard Richard, and the Ming army archers who had suffered more than half of the battle were also gathered back, forming the first firing line with 80 Ming army heavy crossbowmen.

The first to arrive at the periphery of the battlefield was the patrol battalion in Dashi Town. The patrol battalion team Zheng Han Li saw that the main patrol team had been completely disintegrated, did not rush to send troops to attack, but lined up one mile away from Richard’s team.

Hundreds of officials from Dashi Town also arrived quickly, and under the leadership of Xu Feizhi, the head catcher, they lined up close to the patrol camp.

Richard knew that the real battle had just begun!
