King’s Kingdom - Chapter 217
“The King’s Kingdom (
Theodosius no longer had any worries at this time, and the pride and ambition that rose in his heart just now still did not fade away. Not to mention how much loss this **** beast has caused him, if he can kill him with his own hands, what will he gain? Great Holy Prestige!
This is Dragon Slayer!
The dragon that his grandfather killed when he captured Lanyin was not as big as this one, so he was able to draw such a feat as a family coat of arms. If this huge dragon was killed by himself, the prestige he would gain would be absolute. It’s not comparable to what it was back then.
The giant dragon Kogan looked at Theodosius who was still approaching him, and was suddenly very annoyed. He ran forward, flapping his wings, and roaring loudly with his mouth open, and there was a thick smell in the air. sulphur smell.
“Don’t let this damned beast go to heaven! Shoot him with a bow and arrow!” shouted Theodosius.
The armored paladins put their lances on the two hooks on the side of the saddle, and then took out the elven short bow from the bow bag fixed to the saddle.
The distance between the two sides has been pulled into about 200 meters, which is within the range of the elf bow. The beast in front of him kept flapping its wings while running, obviously not to speed up its running speed.
After the decline of the magic power, the number of giant dragons began to decrease sharply, and few people have seen them. Moreover, most of these ferocious giant beasts have lost the ability to fly, so there is no clear record of how the giant dragons take off.
And Theodosius saw that Kogan’s wings were getting faster and faster, and his feet were off the ground from time to time, and he immediately reacted.
He remembered that it was difficult for some large pterosaurs to take off after landing. They needed to run and accelerate for a certain distance before jumping up and flying into the sky.
When the magic power declined, most of the dragons lost the ability to fly, but this dragon picked up this ability again because of a pair of large wings different from Changlong, but without the help of magic, he wanted to drive this ability. Taking off with a huge body is probably not an easy task.
Iron-clad paladins use bows to shoot arrows. Although the short elf bow is not as good as the real elf bow in terms of range and power, it is more convenient to carry, especially suitable for cavalry to use on horseback.
Moreover, these knights have been trained since childhood, not only with strong physical fitness, superb swordsmanship, superb spear skills, but also bow and horse skills. The use of bows and arrows and horseback archery are compulsory courses for many people.
Especially when hunting, many people will directly choose to shoot arrows on horseback to obtain prey, which gives them a good riding ability.
I saw forty-five arrows whistling and flew out. Although it was not dense or accurate, it still scared the dragon to retract its wings.
Its wings are not like other parts of the body are covered with solid scales, not afraid of the blow of ordinary arrows, but like a bat, only a layer of fleshy membrane is attached to the skeleton.
Although it is indeed tough, its structure also determines that the strength will not tear the leather armor. The arrows shot by the elf bow can penetrate even a single layer of iron armor. How can it be impossible to penetrate the fleshy wings?
His flying ability is not strong in the first place, and he needs to run pigs even to take off. If the wings are shot through by arrows to reduce the blasting ability, or the openings are pulled by arrows, then he will not be able to fly at all.
Such an injury is quite fatal to the dragon. In order to keep its wings that can fly, it has always been very cautious.
“Sure enough!” Theodosius rejoiced in his heart, as he had guessed correctly.
The arrows of the armored paladins never stopped, and they kept shooting at the beast.
The powerful species in the back are headed by half-dragons, desperately chasing these iron-clad paladins. These half-dragons transformed by the blood of the giant dragon Kegan are loyal to their masters, but it is a pity that their rear has also been blocked by Lan Yin. The kingdom’s army was bitten.
And there are also the Lanyin knights and the prairie hussars who have repeatedly attacked them.
The tactics adopted by the Prairie Hussars and the Rhine Knights were very sensible, they were not fools, and the battle goals were now different from before.
Before, in the absence of allied forces, the strategic goal that needed to be achieved was to use the defeat of the enemy to cause chaos for the entire monster army, and then reap the benefits of the fisherman.
The tactical goal is to cut through the enemy formation one by one to complete the division, causing casualties and intimidation to the enemy to make them flee in chaos.
It is normal to achieve battle goals through tactical goals. They must execute according to this pre-determined goal, and there can be no negligence at all.
Otherwise, wouldn’t it be safer and less risky to harass the enemy with iron-clad paladins and some steppe hussars with riding and archery skills.
It’s just that if you do that, you won’t be able to hit your strategic and tactical goals. If you can’t achieve your goals, going out of town to fight is meaningless.
But now the tactical goal has changed, they don’t need to pierce the enemy to defeat them, just block their progress and cooperate with the reinforcements to attack the enemy.
So their fighting style has become the classic tactic of most cavalry~www.mtlnovel.com~ Even the heavy cavalry will use the onion peeling tactic when they are not sure of breaking the formation.
These cavalry did not confront the monsters head-on at all, but came and went like the wind into multiple small units, and they rubbed the periphery of the monsters back and forth, which belonged to the combination of the car suspension and the wave onion tactics.
In this way, the monsters can be described as miserable. Before they could find the opportunity to kill the cavalry in front of them, they saw him run away for a long distance, and then he was stabbed with a lance, losing his life in surprise.
These cavalrymen use the lances in their hands to carry out the tactic of peeling onions, making a length gap. Unless an accident occurs, it is almost difficult to be killed by monsters.
The infantry at the back were also very efficient in killing the enemy. It was not the soldiers of the Southern Army who lacked training who came to support them, but the elites of the Central Military Region and the elites of the Rydermen Military Region who had been trained since childhood, had strong physical fitness, and had system bonuses. , and the strong and sturdy Varangian Guard.
Varangian warriors are not much worse than these monsters in stature, and with the bonus of the system’s heavy infantry quota, they are even more powerful, not to mention their weapons and equipment are far stronger than the monsters in front of them, so that in the In the real hand-to-hand combat, those monsters with stronger physical data actually played far less than the Varangian warriors, and were defeated by them.
The other soldiers of the Northern Army of the Lanyin Kingdom also exerted their due combat power. Even if they are not as good as these monsters on paper, their formations and their cooperation with each other can be described as perfect. Generally speaking, a team can deal with ten people. A few monsters have no pressure.
That’s right, even in this non-phalanx system, the soldiers are still fighting according to the most basic command units.
