Chapter 458 The battlefield has changed

Drogo's roar was full of energy. In this chaotic battlefield, it was like a thunderclap from the blue sky, frightening the surrounding Lizardmen soldiers so much that their hearts trembled and their attention was diverted.

In an instant, the body of the lizardman general, which was held up like a flag, became the focus of everyone's attention.

After recognizing the identity of the corpse, the lizardmen soldiers all revealed an unconcealable panic on their faces.

When two armies are at war, the blow to the morale of the troops caused by the death of a general cannot be ignored, even if the death may be just one of several generals.

The morale of the dragoons was crushed, and their offensive was obviously affected, and they were not as brave as at the beginning.

Seeing this, Li Ce, who had been observing the situation throughout, quickly ordered his troops to launch a fierce attack, intending to take this opportunity to shorten the gap in troop strength between the two sides in one fell swoop.

But the high priest was not stupid. Although the defeat of the main force made him unhappy, it did not make him lose his mind.

Seeing that the situation over there had changed, the high priest did not intend to let the large army fight head-on, and quickly issued a new order.

Upon receiving the order, the large force of dragoons retreated decisively.

Gruul, who was having a hard time fighting Zhou Chongshan at the time, was no exception.

It is not difficult to see that Gruul is definitely not a fool from his action that as soon as he saw the situation was not good, he took the initiative to apply to go to the southern battlefield to get rid of the mess here.

When it was time to run, he did so without hesitation.

But how could Zhou Chongshan let him go just like that?

"Where are you running to?!"

Amidst the roar, Zhou Chongshan looked at Gruul's back as he turned and ran away, and directly threw the crystal spear in his hand out.

Although Gruul was aware of it, he was unable to dodge it completely. He was hit in the left shoulder, blood splattered, and he grimaced in pain.

He should be thankful that the originally sharp tip of the crystal spear had been basically broken during the previous fight. Otherwise, judging from Zhou Chongshan's previous performance, this throw would most likely have pierced directly through his shoulder!

At this moment, the Swift Dragon Cavalry retreated like a tide.

However, how could the Great Zhou army, which was in high spirits and gradually taking control, be willing to let them go? The opportunity was fleeting, and this battle had already reached the most critical turning point for their Great Zhou army. If they fought well, the situation would definitely change.

There was no time to hesitate, they launched a pursuit and expanded the victory! The Great Zhou cavalry, equipped with horse archery, had a strong pursuit ability. Their pursuit made the opposing swift dragon cavalry retreat in an extremely embarrassing manner, and the number of casualties continued to increase.

Until a wall suddenly appeared in their sight and blocked their arrow attack.

It's a Shield Ankylosaur!

From the very beginning, those velociraptors did not retreat to the rear, but moved towards the moving armored dragon phalanx.

After the distance was shortened, relying on the flexibility of the velociraptor, he jumped into the gap between the armored dragon formations and hid directly inside the formation.

When the opponent dodged, the moving Shield Ankylosaur didn't even need to do anything and became the best cover for those Speed ​​Dragon Riders.

If an ordinary arrow hits a Shield-Armored Dragon, the effect would probably be no more than a tickle.

Not to mention that in order to ensure their archery ability on horseback, the cavalry were equipped with short bows that could be pulled quickly. Their power was weaker than normal infantry bows, and their effect against armored dragons was even worse.

The Great Zhou cavalry were undoubtedly aware of this and simply stopped their arrow attacks.

At the same time, Li Ce, who seized the opportunity, commanded the crossbow troops to find a good output position and set up the three-bow crossbow to launch an attack.

Compared with the bows and arrows that are completely powerless in front of the armored dragon, the destructive power of the giant crossbow arrows is undoubtedly much stronger.

But after a round of attacks, Li Ce quickly realized that under the current circumstances, the giant crossbow could not help him break the situation.

[As before, it is difficult for the crossbow troops to seriously damage these big guys at this stage. The key now is to prevent the opponent's dragoon cavalry from regrouping. ]

[If we let the crossbow troops continue to attack, the cavalry troops will not be able to get close, and the opposing swift cavalry will have a chance to catch their breath...]

Thinking of this, Li Ce's eyes focused and he made a prompt decision.

He quickly ordered the crossbow troops to stop attacking, and at the same time signaled the cavalry troops to rush in and continue chasing the dragoons.

His order was undoubtedly risky.

But in the current situation, due to the arrival of reinforcements from the opposite side, the Lizardmen’s military strength has completely surpassed theirs.

Under this premise, if he doesn't seize this hard-won opportunity to turn the tables, how can he turn the tables? ! In order to win, some risks have to be taken, such as now.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Zhou Chongshan, Drogo and Silk didn't think too much about it, but after receiving the order, they still acted without hesitation.

As soldiers of the Great Zhou, obeying orders is their duty!

There are large gaps between the phalanx formed by the four armored dragons, and even the internal space can be said to be spacious, otherwise the Lizardman troops would not be able to stay inside.

Now it is not difficult for the cavalry of the Great Zhou to chase in through the gap.

The Speed ​​Dragon Cavalry, who originally thought they had successfully escaped the pursuit, saw that the Great Zhou Cavalry were so bold as to pursue them. The internal situation, which had just stabilized, fell into chaos again.

But this chaotic scene did not last forever. During the fight, even Drogo and Zhou Chongshan, who had originally been able to kill ordinary dragoons indiscriminately, clearly felt that these dragoons seemed to have become more difficult to deal with.

But I couldn't tell where the problem was.

During this period, Li Ce, as the commander, stood on the periphery observing the situation and had a clearer view.

Looking at the phalanx formed around the four armored dragons, the velociraptors kept rushing in and out, and even jumping left and right.

He suddenly realized something! "The battlefield has changed!!"

This discovery made Li Ce's face change suddenly.

It has been said before that the advantage of the dragoon cavalry is its flexibility and agility, which can be better utilized in some more complex battlefield environments. However, in the flat plains, compared with the Zhou cavalry riding war horses, they have no advantage, and it can even be said that they are at a disadvantage.

But the situation is different now. The presence of four armored dragons is equivalent to throwing four huge obstacles directly there, making the originally simple plain battlefield suddenly become complicated.

It also allowed the advantage of the swift dragon cavalry's flexibility and speed to be brought into play, but in contrast, the advantage of the Great Zhou cavalry was suppressed due to the presence of the four troublesome armored dragons!
