When the horn sounded, Jialin rolled over, quickly put on his equipment, and came to the entrance of Xueti Village.

He was almost the last one to arrive. Except for the one rock legion guarding the village entrance, the other two legions were already on standby behind the wooden wall.

After joining up with Mistress Hawkwind and others, they came to the front line to watch the battle, and happened to see Gandalf directing the battle.

"One hundred meters ahead, free shooting!"

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"

These are the bows and arrows shot by the musketeers of the Garin Legion and the Minotaur guards. At a distance of one hundred meters, and with the boarmen charging so densely, there is no need to aim at all. Just pull the trigger and pull the bowstring to shoot arrows in the direction of the boarmen's charge, and you will hit the target.

The wild boar people who were charging were in great trouble. While running, the front row of them seemed to have hit something heavy head-on. They were blown away by the recoil of the bullets, fell backwards, and were trampled to death by the tribesmen who were running behind.

The productivity of the wild boar people living in primitive society is also quite backward. Most of their weapons are simple one-handed hammers! A hammer head covered with spikes is tied to the top of the wooden stick!

Without even a wooden shield, how can you approach my musket formation?

The charging boarmen warriors fell down row after row, but they only closed the gap of more than ten meters. The Thorny Chieftain who was far behind was furious. This situation was different from what he expected. How could his warriors suffer such heavy casualties without even getting close to the enemy's battle formation?

"Pig Knight, follow me and charge! Thornmantu, I leave this to you!"

"Chief, don't be impulsive!" It was too late for Thornmantu to speak up to stop them. Chief Thornmantu and his three thousand fighting boar knights had already spread their short legs and were charging forward quickly.

Compared with the ordinary warriors of the Wild Boar Man, the equipment of the Fighting Boar Knights is better. The weapons in their hands are iron one-handed axes and some spears, and they also have a small wood escape in their hands. Most importantly, the fighting boars are also covered with some simple wooden boards. These are made of special thorns planted by the Wild Boar Man Shamans. They are hard and light!

These three thousand fighting boar knights are the foundation of Chief Thornhair's rule over the Thornblade Tribe, and also the basis for his delusion of unifying the Thornbacks.

It is undeniable that the fighting boars they raised were strong and energetic. At this moment, they had surpassed the other wild boar people and were quickly approaching the wooden wall!

"Infantry phalanx, move forward and raise your shields to defend!"

The infantry of the Rock Legion have followed Aragon for a long time. Their shields are larger than those of the infantry of other legions, and they are also the most adept at defense. At this moment, they raised their shields and quickly rushed out of the wooden wall, forming four phalanxes in front of the gap, striding forward, bending their waists, and holding up their shields, ready to meet the charge of the Fighting Boar Knights!

An impeccable performance, it took only a little over a minute from issuing the order to completing the shield formation.

Although some ranged warriors chose to attack the Boar Knights, more bullets and arrows still fell on the heads of the Boarmen infantry. In addition, the Boar Knights had strong mobility and wood escape defense, so only a few dozen unlucky Boarmen were hit by stray bullets and fell off their mounts.

"Oh!"

The shields of the fighting boar knights and infantrymen collided, and the tusks of the fighting boars left deep dents on the shields. Some fighting boars' tusks were even broken, and even worse, some fighting boars broke their own necks.

Many of the front-row infantrymen were also injured in the collision and were pushed back by the impact, leaning on the shields of their teammates behind them.

Are the pig knights who were stopped still knights? Having lost their mobility and impact force, they have become infantrymen riding on the pigs. The infantrymen reacted quickly, and the two phalanxes behind them began to encircle them.

The hand-to-hand fight has begun.

These fighting boar knights are stronger than the boarmen warriors who serve as infantry. Their skin is gray-black or blue-gray, their chests are exposed, they wear leather armor on their lower body, and they have spiked shoulder armor on their shoulders. Their heads are like those of wild boars, with long fangs that curve upwards. They look extremely ferocious as they charge at this moment.

With this size, they are almost as big as two human soldiers. However, apart from being slightly stronger than humans, their combat effectiveness is not very outstanding.

First of all, they fight on their own and have no idea about the most basic battle formation coordination. The coverage rate of their armor is not high, and basically their entire upper body and pig head have no protection. Their vitality is not as good as that of the trolls. When fighting, they get carried away and their intelligence is not high. Generally speaking, except for the fact that they are stronger than humans and can reproduce, in other aspects, wild boars are not outstanding among humanoid intelligent races.

"Chirp, chirp!"

The third round of flares has been launched, and the previously dark battlefield has been illuminated again.

With the help of the light from the flares, the wild boar people panted and finally caught up with the fighting boar knights at the cost of thousands of casualties, and officially engaged in battle with the infantry.

But the boarman leader Thornmantu wanted to retreat. It was not because he was timid, but because he knew that the Bloodhoof Village was well prepared, and these skinny guys were not as vulnerable as the chief said.

On the contrary, they were organized, disciplined, and well-equipped. Thornmantu even saw a skinny infantryman use a broad-bladed sword to cut the wooden shield of a fighting boar knight in half. The wooden shield had no resistance at all.

The wild boar people wielded wooden hammers, but apart from the impact force generated by the huge force, the other spikes could not cause any damage to the heavily armored infantry. Only the iron axes of the fighting boar knights could cause damage to the infantry!

The battle had been going on for half an hour and the two sides were in a stalemate, but Garin's side only deployed one legion with more than 8,000 troops, while the wild boar people launched an all-out attack with an army of more than 20,000 people.

It was almost time. Seeing the situation, Garin said to Gandalf, "Gandalf, get the knights moving and be ready to split the wild boars' battle formation at any time. Then the Raging Tide Legion can also join the battle and prepare to encircle them!"

Two thousand heavily armored knights moved on the flat grassland, ready to charge at any time, cutting through the boarmen's camp like sharp knives and dividing them.

As the knights sped up, the sound of horse hooves began to be heard, which began to disturb the boarmen warriors.

The warriors of the Raging Tide Legion rushed out from the cracks in the wooden wall, formed camps in teams of a hundred, and surrounded the wild boars from the southwest to the southeast.

The heavily armored knights continued to run along Shiniu Lake, reaching their fastest speed.

"charge!"

With an order, the cavalry began to turn around and gallop towards the wild boar men.

Since there were only a small number of javelin throwers in the boarmen's army, and they had not yet developed into the musketeers that appeared decades later, the knights did not raise their shields, but simply held their lances horizontally and officially entered the charge mode.

A new round of killing has begun!
