Above the Seven Towers

Garriott's soldiers are a temporary patchwork team, but as he requested, most of these soldiers have undergone a considerable degree of combat training, that is, ordinary cavalry, which can be regarded as elite in the City Guard. In the process of charging, they basically maintained a basic formation, and the ones who surpassed the front in the team were some relatively strong fighters. Seen from above, it is like a giant claw sticking out from the city of Suero, grabbing the loosely-arranged Chinese ahead.

Garriott focused on it, guarding against possible attacks from the other side, and scales began to appear on his body and head and face. Miguel and Saccheri beside him also used grudge and magic to protect themselves.

Just as the distance between the horse team and the opponent was close to 1,500 kilometers, the cones in the front row suddenly started to shoot small cones. The thing crossed a very high curve and flew towards Garriott.

"Magic dodge formation!" Garriott shouted.

This world is different from the Middle Ages of the earth. Because of the existence of magic, trained warriors often know the technique of avoiding explosions, cavalry will pay attention to keep the distance, and infantry knows to lie down. The so-called magic dodge formation is the tactical action of further increasing the distance between the cavalry and then lying on horseback.

Garriott's team was already very loose. After he gave the order, the entire team began to spread further from the periphery. However, he shouted a little later, and because the team did not run in, the requirements for on-the-spot changes were too high for many fighters who came from the escort. Their personal combat skills were higher, but they were not familiar enough with the formation. Instead, the cavalry with average strength fulfilled this command more faithfully.

As a result, the cavalry in the middle of the formation was a bit chaotic, not only did it not spread out in time, but also slowed down the team.

At this moment, the first batch of shells fell from the sky and landed in the middle of the horse team.

The power of the 60mm mortar is much worse than the other two pneumatic guns, but each shell can still cause effective damage within a radius of five meters. However, because of the distance, there were only three dozen shells that really landed in the Garriot team.

Two of the shells landed among several cavalry soldiers that were close together. The shock wave of the explosion caused the nearby cavalry to blow up, and the mud and stones lifted hit the cavalry further away. Two cavalrymen happened to be near the point where the shells landed. They were killed on the spot, while the other warrior with a grudge. Although he saved his life in the explosion, he was also kicked off. Several other cavalry suffered injuries ranging in severity.

Coincidentally, another shell exploded near Garriott. The scales on his body blocked the impact of the explosion, but he damaged his half-length clothes and pulled a few blood openings on the horse under him. . Garriott simply tore off his coat. His entire body was covered with blue scales, and a pair of wings were spread on his back, much like a scaled-down green dragon.

He looked back and found that although the enemy's attack was powerful, there were few effective attacks. In this wave of enemy attacks, he only fell about three or four people, and they were all ordinary soldiers with low strength.

Each blow is at the level of a low-level mage! However, the hit rate is much worse than the mage. Garriott let go of some suspended heart.

He shouted loudly, "Go ahead for me! Don't be intimidated by their blind attack! Don't stop, give me a rush! We will rush to them soon. Whoever dares to run back , I must cut the head of his family when I go back! "

auzw.com His cavalrymen also felt that such an attack was not to be feared, and they quickly rushed to continue to charge.

However, the attack speed of the Chinese is much faster than the low-level mage's casting speed. After more than ten seconds, the second round of shelling came again. This time their attack seemed to be more biased, only one shell fell on the team, but Garriott's team spread apart, the effect of the explosion was worse than before, and no one was knocked down.

"Huh, I thought how powerful these guys were. These strange" cannons "are too bad. That's why the big targets of the city defenses will hit them." Miguel sneered.

"Don't be too happy. Just like archery, you missed the first arrow, won't the second arrow adjust? And the closer you shoot, the better?" Sacheri said.

As soon as his words fell, the third batch of shells fell. This time, four or five shells entered the range of the horse team. Six or seven people were knocked down by the explosion.

"Don't talk nonsense, continue charging!" Garriott shouted.

When they crossed half the distance, they ushered in the fourth wave of shells.

While this wave of shells was still flying, Sachary looked up and said: "There are different magic fluctuations. And the landing point is wrong!"

Sure enough, these shells did not hit the horse team, but hit a range of about 50 meters in front of the team. After the shells landed, they did not explode the fire, but burst out a large piece of clear water. Under the effect of the above magic circle, the water spilled on the ground quickly formed ice, forming a diameter of about seven or eight meters The round ice surface created a sparse "drape" in front of them,

Because the horses charge quickly, it is too late to bypass. The knight in front rushed directly into the "ice field".

Garriott's own horse stepped on the ice, and the horse was about to fall when it slipped. He quickly jumped off the horse and ran under his feet while putting his hands under the belly of the horse to pull the horse out A piece of ice. Miguel and Saccheri beside him also showed their magical powers, one smashed the ice in front of him with a grudge, and let his horse step on safely. One was performing a flying technique on the horse, so that the sliding horse did not fall to the ground, but floated into the air.

The soldiers behind them also tried to avoid these ice surfaces in various ways. The superb riding can be bypassed directly. The grudge is strong enough to learn Miguel to break the ice surface, but after all, many people do not have A better way is to watch yourself fall down while riding a horse, while those soldiers in the rear encounter a fall in the front and can only slow down or go around.

In any case, the team has slowed down.

"Don't panic, bypass the ice and regroup!" Garriott shouted.

But at this time, another batch of artillery shells arrived, and the horse team held by the ice became better at aiming. Seven or eight shells fell on the team this time. The results of these shells were much stronger than before. At least a dozen cavalrymen fell into this wave of attacks.
