Chapter 297 6.45 The Border of Wessex (2)
In a dense earthquake tremor like spring rain and thunder, the first wave of Wessex's defense force finally appeared in the mountains near the border!
This is a three-dimensional army composed of heavy armored knights, heavy infantry, Moa knights and armored elephants. Just as the Democratic Lighthouse before the crossing would not simply send its own soldiers into the battlefield, this wave of attacking troops is mainly composed of the armies of Wessex, East Anglia, East Saxon and Kent.
In order to increase the impact of the troops against giants, Ecbert even sent out the armored elephants he bought from the Visigothic Free City at a high price!
Once this powerful beast that can carry 5 tons of weight is fully armored, the impact of their running is difficult to resist even for the Chosen Ones under the Sea Giant Path. Even in many cases, when encountering giant monsters that have survived from ancient times, the running armored elephants can pierce them from front to back with two sharp tusks!
This army is not only well-equipped, but also has a methodical execution of combat deployment.
Ecbert must have intended to keep the enemy out of the country, so he sent out the first general of Wessex, the dragon knight "Ander Evans"! He had already calculated that Loki would set up camp in this woodland tonight.
In order to completely wipe out the invading enemy, he arranged a set of iron barrel tactics of front and back encirclement.
The heavy cavalry with long spears rushed down from the low hill, drawing a sharp light and piercing the enemy formation. On the road where Loki wanted to retreat, the armored war elephants and heavy infantry phalanxes had already been waiting in full battle array. Thousands of glittering spears had been lined up, waiting for the Viking warriors to appear.
In terms of air supremacy, the four countries also gave their all.
At this time, the flying terror knights in the sky were not carrying iron arrows, but highly flammable kerosene.
In the sky, they threw kerosene cans into the Viking camp, and then threw down flammable fire. Like the stars in the sky, the flames falling from the sky became the light of death.
When the flames fell to the ground, a large fire began to burn in Loki's camp. In the flames that shot up into the sky, Loki picked up the blood axe and stared at the group of heavy cavalry charging down from the hill.
After a sprint of nearly a kilometer, the speed of the cavalry had reached a terrifying peak. A row of steel spears nearly 5 meters long stood in front of them, making the cavalry like a sharp long knife piercing the central army.
Even the recruits who had never been on the battlefield knew that it was extremely stupid to confront the running heavy cavalry.
But this was exactly Loki's choice.
On the ever-changing battlefield, the enemy most wanted you to do the first signal from your brain. The English army charged with volleys and set fire from high altitudes. All of this was to allow him to avoid the sharp edge and lead the army to retreat to the narrow valley outside the valley that seemed harmless to people and animals.
It can be determined that the silent and dark valley was the most dangerous place in this ambush.
Therefore, Loki decisively issued an order to counter-charge.
"My dear friends! This frustrating war has been going on for now, and we can finally let go and kill everything!"
"Break their bones for me!"
Facing the spears of the heavily armed knights, the Viking warriors drew their axes and roared excitedly.
The trumpeter pulled out the horn hanging on his waist, took a deep breath and blew two low hums. Hearing the order to change the formation, the Viking warriors quickly arranged the charge formation that had been practiced many times in Asgard.
At the front of the triangular formation stood a row of "mountain giants" who had obtained the latest potion from the "Book of Saga". This group of "mountain giant passers-by" was mostly composed of Slavic strongmen. Most of them had drunk the potion of Sequence 5 "Granite Guardian", and a few had even been upgraded to Sequence 4 "Crystal Giant".
When the charging English cavalry approached, the "Mountain Giant Passer" who had transformed into a heavy armored giant pulled out one tree after another and carried the huge stump of nearly 20 meters on the shoulders of his companions in front of him.
Boom, boom, boom!
When the giants in the front row carried the wooden stumps on their shoulders and launched a charge, the whole land seemed to tremble under the heavy load!
The knight's lances in the hands of the cavalry seemed sharp, but compared with the giants wielding the ancient stumps like gods, the weapons in their hands were like children's toys
Delicate, but fragile.
The two troops collided head-on like two huge waves rushing in the opposite direction, and it was indeed a one-sided crushing to meet the heavy knights!
After the heavy wooden stakes weighing dozens of tons were provided with enough acceleration by the giants, they were like dozens of heavy hammers, hitting the exquisite armor of the cavalry.
No shouting.
No howling.
There was not even the sound of armor breaking!
The English cavalry died suddenly in silence. At the moment when the two armies clashed, dozens of gorgeous blood flowers bloomed neatly in the open woodland, like gorgeous flowers suddenly appearing on a dark blue canvas under the dark blue twilight.
The mountain giants carrying the huge log on their shoulders only slightly stagnated their forward steps, but this little momentum was just like a tickle for the group of Odin believers who drank the complete potion.
The sea giants and frost giant passers-by in the back row inserted the tree stumps into the ground, and the mountain giants in the front row lowered the logs to serve as fulcrums. Before they could wipe off the blood residue that spurted onto their bodies, the second, third, and even fourth batches of heavy cavalry had already hit the huge logs that stood silently on the ground.
They wanted to change their route and escape, but the horses wearing 200 kilograms of heavy armor did not allow them to do so.
Not only the charging heavy cavalry suffered a heavy blow, but the MOA knights in the sky were also being baptized by thunder!
A dozen of the Chosen Ones of the "Thunder God Path" stretched out their arms to the sky, and a group of lead-black clouds began to gather above everyone's heads. As the "Thunder Callers" chanted prayers softly, several thick thunders burst from the clouds and connected to their outstretched arms.
The MOA knights flying at high speed in the air watched their hair flying against the wind. They desperately pulled the reins to escape from the range covered by the dark clouds. However, no matter how fast the MOA flew, it could not compare to the thunderbolt in the clear sky!
Several lightning bolts as thick as buckets accurately chopped into their bodies. Amid the sound of explosions, the fuel tanks carried by the MOA knights were ruthlessly ignited in mid-air.
Brilliant fireworks lit up in the sky, each one foreshadowing the death of a life. In just a few minutes, the flying terror bird knights were killed or wounded, and several extreme escapers near the edge of the battlefield no longer cared about the battlefield ban, and used all their strength to escape from the battlefield without looking back.
A seemingly meticulous ambush was resolved in just 10 minutes by the powerful Odin believers.
The Viking pirates roared and clapped each other, only Loki held his breath and looked at the valley behind him where birds kept flying in panic.
(Since you are here, don’t you plan to show up?)
As he muttered to himself, the armored war elephant at the end of the canyon behind him raised its front hooves and began to charge. And accompanied by a few loud dragon roars.
The dragon knight of Wessex flew into the air and once again showed his huge figure in front of Loki.
