Chapter 245245. Fighting

All hope lies in the Swift Dragon Riders.

While the heavy infantry regiment was attracting fire from the front, the Swift Dragon Cavalry chose to launch a surprise attack.

It also faces three-stage shooting.

No, there were also people standing on the ox cart, as well as interference from the military mage Fei Yeti.

Compared to the heavy infantry regiment, the threat posed by the Swift Dragon Cavalry was obviously several levels higher, so Zoe was very nervous.

She knew that if the line was breached, her side would suffer heavy casualties.

There was a continuous sound of gunfire! Many of the soldiers had participated in the pirate blocking war and were no longer considered new recruits.

The Swift Dragon Cavalry began to suffer losses at a distance of 700 to 800 meters, and soon entered 500 meters under a hail of bullets, and the losses began to increase.

"Charge! Defeat them!"

The massive damage made the Swift Dragon Cavalry Captain's eyes turn red. He swung his sharp knife and wanted to chop the enemy in half.

As they advanced within 300 meters, the cavalry formation suddenly slowed down.

The ground beneath my feet seemed to have turned into a quagmire, and even the air seemed to have become sticky.

"Damn it! There's a magician!"

The captain of the velociraptor cavalry faced a new round of volleys, and the velociraptor under his crotch was knocked to the ground. His teammates beside him were also killed, and the screams of velociraptors and humans were endless.

Rifles, not medieval muskets.

It has mature fixed bullet technology and fast bullet changing speed.

The prototype third-generation machine gun can even be classified as a machine gun, firing multiple bullets per second.

To be honest, if the Swift Dragon Cavalry found a closer terrain, they might be able to break through the formation.

But if you rush over from this plain area, you will only run into a storm of steel head-on!

Only a few velociraptors made it to the last 100 meters, but most of them turned around and fled because of fear of the gunshots.

Zoe breathed a sigh of relief. When the Swift Dragon Riders charged just now, the speed was beyond her expectations.

If it weren't for the three-stage shooting and the fact that our side had twice as many troops, the enemy might have succeeded.

She turned her gaze to another part of the battlefield.

The heavy-armored infantrymen moved slowly like targets, and when they found that their shields could not block the bullets, the team collapsed.

The plains were filled with fleeing coalition forces.

"Captain, should we give chase?"

"Chase! Try to destroy the enemy!"

A pursuit battle began. Zoe and her men didn't chase too far, and after killing a wave of heavy armored infantry, they returned to finish off the enemy.

Naturally, she would not have any mercy on the invaders from the enemy country and would massacre them.

"Report to the warrior commander, the battlefield has been cleaned up, and we have lost one person!"

"What's going on!"

Zoe was furious. She didn't suffer any casualties in the direct battle, but lost people cleaning up the battlefield? She couldn't accept this result.

The reason was that in order to save ammunition, the soldiers who were cleaning the battlefield did not choose to clean the battlefield with bullets, but chose to finish off the enemy with bayonets. This gave the enemy who was pretending to be dead a chance to launch a sneak attack, and one soldier paid with his life.

In order to bury this soldier, everyone discussed for a long time.

It was finally decided to cremate him along with his enemies.

Anyway, burning one person is burning, and burning a group of people is also burning. The troops stayed where they were, collected some firewood and branches, and poured diesel on them.

As the flames rose, the expeditionary force set off again.

Two hours later, the scouts informed the Allied stronghold of the defeat.

The vanguard general immediately summoned all the generals and informed them of the news.

"How is it possible! The enemy suffered almost no damage, but we suffered heavy losses? They are the elite troops of the kingdom! Could it be that we encountered a legendary strongman?"

Most people think so.

The scout described the battle situation in detail, focusing on the enemy's new weapons. The weapons were so powerful that they could easily penetrate iron shields and leather armor.

Basically, once hit, even those who have broken the limit will find it difficult to escape.

Everyone looked at each other for a long time.

"What should we do now? This stronghold is the only way to get to Morning Light City. Should we give up?"

"We still have more than 6,000 troops, six times the enemy's. Are we just going to flee in disgrace?"

"I think we can consider a raid at night."

Tarna's face was gloomy. She had not personally experienced the strength of the enemy's new weapon, so she could not make an accurate judgment.

On the surface, the casualty ratio was at an incredible level.

The combat power of the 6,000 people here is actually not as good as the previous 3,500 people. If we send them over again, it may not be much better.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

"That's the musketeers of Fort Fortune."

A general from the Kingdom of Dongqi broke the silence softly.

"Does this type of soldier have any weaknesses?"

"According to our intelligence personnel's investigation, musketeers have high requirements for vision and distance. Once the vision is good and the distance is far, musketeers can be regarded as upper-middle-level troops of the third tier. Otherwise, their threat will be greatly reduced."

"One thousand third-level soldiers! No wonder it's like this."

Tarna slammed the table and said, "If we attack at night, will we have a chance of winning?"

"In theory, it will be better than during the day." The general of the Kingdom of Dongqi answered ambiguously.

At this moment, the advancing Donggang City expeditionary force met friendly forces.

The scouts of both sides confirmed the situation and then went to the other commander.

This was a ragtag army of 300 men, formed by reinforcements from five cities.

The number of their troops once exceeded one thousand, but they were defeated once by the Allied Forces of Three Kingdoms.

The leaders of the reinforcements saw the black smoke from the cremation on the distant hilltops and sent scouts to investigate, where they learned that the Imperial coalition forces had been defeated by the reinforcements from Fort Fulin.

They were overjoyed and rushed to join them.

"How many of you are there?"

"Three hundred and seventy-six people."

It's a bit too little! Zoe muttered in her heart, thinking that these friendly troops might be a hindrance, but she still accepted them. Let them cooperate with the vigilance work and defend the rear of the team.

In this way, they recruited more people along the way, and the number gradually reached 1,500 . Twenty miles away, the coalition stronghold.

"Believe me, as long as we launch a night attack, we can turn the defeat into victory!" Tarna tried her best to convince the generals of the coalition forces.

However, no one agreed to borrow troops.

The three parties were only united in name only, so she was only the nominal commander, without absolute control. Think about it, who would lend the power at hand to others ? The so-called coalition forces, fighting a favorable battle and sharing the spoils are fine. Once the situation changes drastically, everyone will want to protect themselves.

hateful!

Tarna smashed the wooden table into two pieces with great force. Too many of her most important trump cards, the Swift Dragon Cavalry, had been damaged.

The only option now is to retreat.

Before the enemy came to the city, in the evening, the Donggang City Expeditionary Force entered a ruined village.

The scouts found that the water source nearby was drinkable and of a suitable size.

There is only one thing that needs attention.

"Undead Scourge!" Zoe looked at the staggering figure on the street at the entrance of the village with a heavy face.
