King of Mercenaries Chapter 285

On the other side, the black shirt knights were not idle. They kept swimming on the side of the Saxon infantry, stopped from time to time, and used a carbine with a simple crosshair to aim at the Saxony walking knights mixed in the line.

The Saxons couldn't do anything about it. Because after the black shirt knight came over, he stopped immediately and aimed and fired at a distance of twenty meters. And if the Saxony infantry leaves the battle line to chase, the infantry cannot catch up with the black shirt knight.

As for the back plate knight to help? Stop joking, the knight in black shirt wants it. Because they can use the "kite tactics" Marin "invented" to deal with those knights.

It didn't take long for more than 200 Dismounted Knights to be flanked by more than 200 people ... The remaining Paladins were all shrunk to the middle of the infantry square, which the Black Shirt Knights could not reach ...

The Saxon militia continued to advance under the pressure of regular infantry, but morale had been exhausted. At this time, those desperate Saxon militiamen were already full of despair. Because they are dead when they go forward, and they die back ...

Marlin also saw the despair of those people through the telescope at this time, so he suddenly thought of a good idea ...

Then, the infantry of His Majesty's First Front suddenly shouted neatly to the Saxon militia who were being forced to advance:

"Run to both sides! Run to both sides!"

The Saxon militia first stunned, and then someone really started running towards both sides ...

Then, the regular Saxon infantry who oversaw the battle ...

Not only were they stunned, but even the soldiers under Marin were also stunned-what is the situation? Why is the enemy so obedient?

They didn't know that Marin had come up with a temporary solution after discovering that the militiamen who were walking in front of him were ridiculous. You know, these militiamen are not very disciplined. It was a deadly situation. Now, the opposite side suddenly reminded me-"run to both sides", and reminded them at once-yes, it is dead forward, but also dead backwards, but it is not necessary to run to both sides. ... then out of control ...

Under the instinct for survival, those Saxon militiamen who had been used as cannon fodder rushed to the two artillery. The musketeers under Marin were also required to suspend shooting. In particular, they were instructed not to shoot those well-dressed militias, but to kill regular infantry who were well-dressed and had as much weapons as possible ...

Then a farce happened. In the stunned eyes of the regular Saxon infantry, the Saxon militia ditched the dirt bag and wooden board they were carrying, and ran to both sides with ease. They couldn't stop them ... even though they killed some of the fleeing militia, but The collapsed Saxon militia collectively answered the flight, but they were helpless ...

"Hahaha, I didn't expect that the Saxony conscription was obedient!" Kohler laughed when he saw this.

"That's why I didn't bring the conscripts to the battlefield-not very reliable ..." Marin shook his head. Those conscripts, that is, and Shoucheng, it is too difficult for them to gather the courage to go head-to-head ...

After the Saxon militia ran out, 5,000 Saxon regular infantry was exposed to the muzzle of the Marin army ...

Then, those who died at gunpoint this time were the regular Saxon infantry ... In fact, whether it is a regular infantry or a militia, it is also dead in the face of a bullet ...

Alas, Saxony's regular infantry was not so easy to collapse. Seeing that the conscripts acting as cannon fodder ran away, the Saxony infantry commander shouted:

"Pick up those dirt bags and move on!"

At this time, they were only a dozen meters away from the trench in front of the Marin army ...

Then, the regular Saxon infantry in the front row picked up the bags obediently and moved on ...

Marlin's musketeers hurriedly fired, and many Saxon infantry who had picked up dirt bags kept falling. But after all, these regular infantry were well disciplined, so after they fell, some people continued to pick up the bags and send forward ...

The regular infantry advances faster than those recruits who are afraid of death. After three shots of the rapier, after sacrificing five or six hundred people, those regular Saxon infantry finally broke through two trenches and started to the trenches. Throw dirt bags and boards ...

The first ditch was quickly filled, and then these people moved on ...

Alas, by the time they crossed the first ditch, the Musketeers had been reloaded. At such a short distance, basically, the gun was fired against the chest, and even if the smooth-bore gun bullets were easy to fly, there would be nothing wrong.

After that, after another round of three strikes, thousands of Saxon infantry were shot down almost face to face ...

However, enemy casualties are also valuable. In the second ditch, a lot of dirt bags and wooden boards were also dropped ...

At this time, the surviving more than 200 paladins jumped out, rushed to the wooden stakes behind the two trenches, and began to slash with a knife ...

Marin took a look-this is still enough, so immediately ordered to focus on these **** ...

At this point, the two sides have basically face to face. Marin immediately ordered the musketeers to push them down, and the lancers and musketeers passed sideways and reached the front ...

However, when they used spears to stab the Saxony walking knights who were slashing the wooden stump with two-handed swords, they found that they could not move ...

But that's okay, because the Musketeers dropped a lot of long-handled hammers before the battle ...

Suddenly, the musketeers near the Saxon walking knights who were slicing the oblique wood stubs simply threw away their spears, picked up the long-handled warhammer, and began smashing the plate knights who looked at the oblique wood stumps ...

Finally, although some oblique wood stubs were indeed chopped, those walking knights were also repelled by the long-handled warhammer. Moreover, many plate knights who had only looked at the wooden picket before were directly killed and fainted in front of the battle ...

Then ~ www.novelhall.com ~ Through the wooden stakes, the regular infantry of the two sides began a **** battle with spears ...

Both sides seem to be evenly matched. The strength of the Saxon regular infantry lies in experience, while the spearmen under Marin are better than the first three rows of soldiers wearing breastplates and iron helmets with masks. In addition, Marin's spearmen are more densely lined, and they are more disciplined and cooperative. Therefore, although the Saxony infantry is more experienced, the two sides have been fighting for a long time. However, due to the differences in equipment, the casualties on both sides are not equal.

Because the two sides are facing each other across a diagonal wooden stake, the Saxon Lancer can only reach the upper body of the Marin infantry. The lower body of the Marin infantry was blocked by oblique wooden stakes.

However, the first three platoons of infantry under Marin, except the neck and arms, are very protective. Therefore, it was very advantageous to fight each other ... Marin's spearman was shot, and at most he was slightly injured. And those Saxon infantry who did not wear plate armor were stabbed, and the injuries were generally serious, and many of them were fatal ...

It didn't take long for the Saxony infantry to be taken back ...

However, the Saxony infantry did not retreat, but stood outside the range of the spearmen's stabbing under Marin, and occasionally took the first two steps, took Lengzi to poke up with a spear, and then returned. And Marin's spearman, because of the limitation of the oblique wooden stakes, is not good enough to go forward, and can only wait for the enemy to come up ... Then, the two sides were deadlocked there a few steps ...

Alas, Marin didn't dare to change musketeers. Because the regular infantry of Saxony is also very cunning. If the spearmen retreat and replaced with musketeers, these Saxon infantry would certainly take two steps forward and mammoth with a spear. In front of the spearman, the musketeer was not resistant. Once you get close, you have to be beaten ...
