Chapter 82: Roar! King Kong! (Central)
Storm!
As the Mammoth Legion joined the battle, the situation on the battlefield suddenly changed amazingly in an instant!
Leading by Moti, eight male mammoths who were incorporated into the main battle force of the Elephant Legion were roaring towards the approaching Mokodo War Behemoth. The other four petite female mammoths walked two toward the two-wing battlefield that was under the orc attack.
Although these female mammoths are not big, no matter how small they are, they are at least a branch of saber-toothed elephants. Even the smallest one is a height of more than four meters and five meters.
How does this height look like to convert to modern times?
If it is a rural building, then it is a little more than one floor. If it is a commercial housing in the city, it is a one and a half floors.
If there is no specific concept like this, then you can narrow them down a little bit into the mammoth, the behemoth that appeared in the final battle between orcs and humans in the Lord of the Rings Trilogy!
The mammoths that appeared in the decisive battle in the Lord of the Rings Trilogy and the war elephants that Murphy is tamed now are actually the same branch, both belonging to saber-toothed elephants.
The only difference is that the body shape cannot reach that height.
……………………
Facing a behemoth that is as high as five meters and weighs more than ten tons, and is walking towards you.
what will you do?
Stay there and be trampled to death by it, or dodge it from afar?
Under the control of the rider, four female mammoths were running happily among the orcs. Around them, they seemed like waves stirred by huge rocks. Countless orc warriors were easily knocked away and trampled on. These giants with a weight of more than ten tons alone have almost terrible power. Not to mention human-type intelligent creatures like humans and orcs. At this time, even a real earth dragon may not be able to compete with the most lethal saber-toothed elephant among these mammoths!
Unlike the rider of the scythe chariot, there is only one rider in the Elephant Legion, and all are equipped with excellent half-man armor.
The height of the mammoth can help these elephant riders effectively avoid melee damage. After all, unless they have perverted skills like the Elf Prince in the "Lord of the Rings Trilogy", if they want to attack riders on elephants, they must use ranged attack methods. These exquisite half-body armors are designed to help riders resist long-range damage such as arrows.
The impact of the mammoth made the orc's front roll like a wave!
These mammoths with thick skin and thick flesh and still covered with large areas of armor leaves are not something that ordinary means can solve. Even the powerful orc warriors are just a small creature in front of them. Just a light collision or a trampling, no matter how elite orc warriors are, they will be killed on the spot!
These mammoths are not well equipped.
Because Murphy has only recently been successfully domesticated. Because the domestication time was too short, the arrow towers and armors equipped by these war elephants did not have time to complete. In the end, Murphy had no choice but to string together the leaves of the scales and cover them on a large area to increase their defense ability. Fortunately, these mammoths have amazing power. If other creatures were covered with iron sheets weighing more than 800 kilograms, they would probably not even have to think about walking.
He was covered with iron sheets weighing more than 800 kilograms.
You can completely imagine it as an ancient version of half-body armor.
……………………
The orcs were in chaos under the impact of the war elephants, while the soldiers of Athenian took the opportunity to conceal the enemy.
Due to the heavy rain, the longbower has completely lost its function.
They changed into spears and shields, and began to serve as auxiliary legions on the third ladder to assist the Greek heavy infantry in the fighter. The heavy rain could no longer wash away the rich blood on the ground, and the accumulated corpses had even begun to block the footsteps of the soldiers. The half-beast soldiers who began to collapse under the impact of the war elephants and the counterattack of Athens were moved to the corpse, and were then stepped on by their escaped companions, and then they could no longer get up.
trample!
That's right, it's trampling.
Due to the heavy rain, not only Murphy's command system completely collapsed, but the command of the orc chief also completely lost its effect.
The ancient war songs of those shamans cannot be conveyed in the heavy rain.
As a result, the amplification effect they brought completely disappeared. The rain washed away the excitement in the hearts of the orc warriors, and the cold chill from their bodies also made their fighting spirit begin to decline.
Yes.
A heavy rain left the Athenian longbowmen no longer able to play, but also made the orc shamans useless.
Even though they beat the drum beats even more madly, the amplification effect they brought was still gone!
The sound was even ridiculous when the war drums were beaten by the rain.
No command at all!
The command system is completely in chaos!
In the heavy rain, only things within ten meters nearby could be seen clearly, while the sound was covered by the dense sound of rain. The soldiers could only hear the commands of the captain and the flag bearer at most.
At this time, the role of military discipline is clearly reflected.
There are commands of war drums and constraints of generals.
The Orcs were able to compete with the soldiers in Athenians before. However, after the command system collapsed, especially after the number of lower-level officers died in battle, they were completely in chaos and had no command at all. The Orcs' fighting method was to lead by example, which greatly boosted the morale of the army because the Orcs respected and admired the strong. However, this resulted in the lower-level officers being exhausted in the previous battles, and even the shaman's orders for war drums were covered by the sound of rain.
In this way, the army of orcs became like a headless fly.
If it weren't for the advantage of a huge number of people, I would have been defeated long ago.
But the soldiers in Athens are different.
Spartan warriors regard discipline and glory as higher than life!
This idea also influenced other warriors in Athens. The entire Greek civilization's fighting style was formed with strict discipline and cooperation. Otherwise, the so-called Greek phalanx would be a joke. From generals to captains to riders to gang leaders (Greece has a team of eighty people and ten people, which is equivalent to a ten-husband commander), the entire Greek army has strict organization and discipline. Therefore, although it is impossible to receive the military orders passed by Murphy, these lower-level officers can still launch a counterattack based on their own judgment!
……………………
Battle formation center.
Under the heavy rain, all the functions of the flag bearer and the messenger were scrapped.
His vision was blocked by the dense rain curtains. Now even Murphy himself couldn't tell the direction and could not find his subordinates.
