The lord hunted down by the game

Chapter 62 English Longbowmen
[The lottery reward pool has been generated: Swadian heavy cavalry unit card, 1500 game coins, and merchant Manid.

The draw begins...

Congratulations to the host for extracting businessman Manid.

Manid is a shrewd and noble businessman. He is good at communication on various occasions and how to better protect his own life. He is a natural diplomatic talent with excellent business talent, but not Combat talents, the potential of a fighter is only at the level of a first-tier fighter.

Manid admires the host very much, and is willing to offer 100% loyalty. He hopes to get a job without stepping on the battlefield. 】

Yuri was slightly startled when he saw this game prompt, but thinking that he still had no reliable diplomatic talents under his command, he already had arrangements for him in his mind.

However, due to the urgency of the fighting time, Yuri did not meet Manid. After receiving the report from his subordinates, he was directly arranged for him to wait in a comfortable place.

Afterwards, Yuri forcibly summoned the silver-level trial again.

[Silver level trial starts: 1000 English longbowmen will descend on the designated area, they will kill all armed personnel in sight, and hunt down the host until the last one is killed. 】

"what?

They turned out to be English longbowmen who had been eliminated long ago. The South Carolina soldiers in front of them had no armor, and they would be at a disadvantage when encountering longbowmen whose range exceeded that of a flintlock gun. "

In this world, the British Empire's current status is inseparable from the rise of English longbowmen at the end of the Middle Ages.

Although the English longbowmen later became useless due to the increasingly lower cost of plate armor, at the same time the manufacturing cost of the English longbow and the training cost of the English longbowmen completely eliminated them.

But the brilliant achievements of the English longbowmen established the unified status of the British Empire and the status of a European power.

In the Hundred Years' War between Britain and France in the history of this world, Britain did not ultimately lose. The two sides finally drew a tie. The British Empire retained the Brittany region as a British territory.

This is also the basis for the European hegemony after the rise of the Industrial Revolution in the British Empire.

Of course, the Brittany region was not directly designated as the British mainland, but became a vassal state of the British Empire as the Principality of Brittany.

Although the Principality of Brittany has its own autonomous government, with the strong rise of the British Empire, it is now almost in the same position as the British mainland...

The British Empire's expansion in Europe faced the siege of the great powers, and the reason why it was able to gain an advantage was inseparable from the British Empire's preference to support the establishment of smaller vassal states.

The British Empire's aggression on the European continent is different from its colonial aggression. The British Empire in this world simply and crudely established direct territories in the colonies. Only those that were far away would establish autonomous governments, but they were still nominally indivisible territories of the British Empire.

But it is different in Europe, where great powers gather. All the territories of the British Empire in Europe were established by supporting vassal states.

This is the political highlight of the British Empire!

How could Britain, with its small population, compete with the European powers with tens of millions of people?

Therefore, the British troops in Europe all regarded themselves as liberators. Every time the British Empire conquered an area, it would establish an autonomous regime, that is, a vassal state, based on tradition and local national characteristics.

The reason why the French Kingdom in Europe is now being suppressed by the British Empire is because the army of the British Empire is filled with a large number of vassal troops, and the Principality of Brittany is a successful example.

In the same way, the British Empire also fought its battles in the German region by supporting vassal states, such as the Duchy of Hanover, the Duchy of Oldenburg, etc., all of which were the gold medal fighters of the British Empire...

The war in Europe was actually a melee between the British Empire and a group of vassal brothers and the mainstream powers.

English longbowmen may not be able to adapt to the war of this era, but it does not mean that the fearless English longbowmen cannot fight against fusiliers.

With a flash of blue light, an English longbowman with only ordinary cloth armor and a small amount of leather armor appeared (in ancient England, longbowmen were all working people).

When the South Carolina soldiers who hadn't been relieved hurriedly assembled their battle formations, the English longbowmen had already rushed to the effective range.

Immediately afterwards, Jackson saw a thousand English longbowmen shoot a rain of arrows that covered the sun in just one minute...

The rate of fire is one of the few advantages of English longbowmen that can overwhelm muskets.

Before the poor South Carolina musketeers had time to line up, they were shot by the rain of arrows so overwhelmingly that they didn't even recognize their own father...

One arrow stuck in the body will not kill you, but what if ten arrows are inserted into the body?
The weakness of arrows that are not as damaging as lead bullets has become insignificant due to the accumulation of numbers. Nearly a thousand South Carolina Musketeers who were closest were shot down in an instant, and more than half were shot down, and the rest were all wounded, and almost all lost their combat effectiveness!
At this point, the South Carolina artillery fired.

One round after another, grape bullets and explosive bullets fell into the array of English longbowmen, setting off large swaths of flesh and blood corpses!
The faint blue light flickered one after another, which was a symptom of the fallen English longbowman.

However, the English longbowman was not afraid, and was still shooting arrows while moving forward!
The morale of the South Carolina soldiers was low after the Swadian heavy cavalry charge just now, and the casualties were heavy. Now they are covered by arrow rain and oppressed by the English longbowmen. Naturally, the Musketeers are retreating steadily!

When the English longbowmen rained down arrows on the artillery positions, the battle was over...

Governor Jackson gave the order to retreat with a sad face.

As everyone knows, his order completely ruined the remnant soldiers in his hands!
The English longbowmen are trial soldiers and have always maintained a glorious tradition of not leaving any survivors alive.

As the South Carolina infantry and artillery began to retreat hastily, the English longbowmen immediately followed and began to pursue them.

In the end, except for Jackson and other men with horses who successfully threw off the pursuit of the English longbowmen, the rest of the soldiers were all killed by the English longbowmen!

After destroying all the remaining enemies, there were still more than 500 English longbowmen left. They formed a loose infantry line and began to move towards the direction of Yuri's army formation.

Subsequently, he was mercilessly bombarded by Yuri's team.

Of course, the shelling of solid bullets would not waver the English longbowmen at all.

But when they entered the effective range of the grape bullets, they were massacred like the ancient Han heavy halberds before!

Piles of grape and blooming bullets knocked down the English longbowmen piece by piece!
