Chapter 61: Apricot (Part 1)

After the first batch of gnolls fought with the Greek infantry phalanx, a wave of troops composed of adult male gnolls, with a population of about three hundred, began to move to the left.

The front of the front was already in a melee. Although they could not break through the square formation, they could already block the opponent's sight.

Sending a team of elite soldiers around both sides, assaulting the opponent's flanks or taking the back to attack is the most commonly used combat method for gnolls. Therefore, humans have always laid heavy troops on both wings when fighting with them.

In such plain areas, there is almost no strategy for the two armies to fight.

What is competing is whether the marching array and the elite of the soldiers.

In terms of formation, the Greek spear phalanx's head-on ability is almost invincible! In terms of morale, all these reorganized Greek infantry are veterans who have experienced several battles, and Murphy's record of never defeat in the past gives them fearless courage! Even if the other party has more people than their own, they are fearless!

The gnolls in the first line quickly fell under the dense gun formation, but the gnolls in the second line came up.

The Greek infantry at the front put down their spears and raised their shields, and attacked the enemy from the lower corner of the shield with a short sword. The Greek infantry in the second line continued to pierce the spears from the gaps, dealing with these zombies without armor. They were almost either dead or injured when they were caught! The ground soon piled up a layer of zombies. The failure to rush into the gun array and the huge casualties made the zombies a little depressed. The blood flowing on the ground and the accumulated corpses made the female zombies in the third line shrink and dared not move forward.

Standing on the high slope, almost as heavy cavalry were gathered together by Murphy, everyone discovered the troops composed of male gnolls who wanted to bypass the battlefield and attack from the side.

Therefore, God has almost destined their tragedy!

"Arrange!" Murphy ordered the cavalry of the General Guards to cooperate with him to line up the heavy and light cavalry affiliated with Mrs. Elizabeth.

Because the slope of the high slope is not very wide, there can only be a row of thirty cavalry in the formation, with heavy cavalry in front.

Sharp!

"Charge!" Murphy drew out his sword and pointed forward!

The sound of horse hooves rang out!

The knights first raised their spears and rode out, gradually accelerating as they ran. When they were about one hundred meters away from the group of zombies, they pushed the spears flat and hit them suddenly!

Suddenly!

People are on the back and horses are overturned!

The gnoll standing in the first row was hit by heavy cavalry and flew several meters away!

On the spot, the werewolves who wanted to circumnavigate behind were stunned!

These heavy cavalry, even horses wearing armor, were like a sharp knife, inserted into the formation of the werewolf. Suddenly, these elite troops composed of male werewolf were stirred into a mess. The heavy cavalry that entered the sprint state was simply a tractor with the largest horsepower! Unless they were left with their men and horses, they could not stop their steps at all!

The ability of eighty heavy cavalry to break through front is absolutely unparalleled!

Especially in the face of gnolls, which do not have armor-piercing and are not equipped with long weapons, it can be said that unless they take their lives, they will not be able to stop their charge!

Faced with the rushing heavy cavalry, out of instinctive fear of seventy yards, the werewolf avoided them one after another.

With a dodge, the heavy cavalry cut the formation of the zombies into three pieces, and then the light cavalry came up to act as the task of the reapers. They used their spears to pierce the zombies in the front one by one.

In less than a minute, the team of three hundred adult male gnolls collapsed.

The cavalry team, which was close to 360 people, harvested more than half of the enemies in its first charge like harvesting wheat.

The remaining werewolves were desperate amid the sound of galloping horse hooves!

Fear made them run away in a panic, but how could they run over four legs? What finally awaited them was a massacre by the light cavalry.

"Rearrange the array!" The general's guard's knights were guarding Murphy's side.

Murphy rode his horse around, roaring and ordered the heavy cavalry to re-arrange themselves, and then dispatched light cavalry with about sixty people to harvest the dispersed male gnolls. They were the most combative existences among the gnolls, and Murphy could not let them leave alive.

Under Murphy's order, the heavy cavalry held the horses, while the remaining light cavalry dispersed their formations.

He rode his horse to the front of the queue, Murphy raised his long sword and said in a deep voice to the general guard knights on both sides: "Cone formation!"

After understanding Murphy's meaning, he divided the cavalry of the guard into two, and cooperated with him to command the cavalry to form a cone formation. The heavy cavalry to form arrows, while the light cavalry to scatter around.

It took less than five minutes to sprint down the high slope to defeating the elite zombies until they were re-arranged into a cone formation.

The battle on the front-line battlefield is still being glued together. Because of the zombie leader, although there are serious casualties on our side, the zombie on the front-line is still advancing little by little.

The earth is trembling slightly!

The sound of horse hooves rang out again!

This time, even Murphy's general guards entered the charge!

The cavalry unit with a number of four hundred was inserted into the back of the werewolf with a cone formation like a sharp knife.

This moment is more appropriate to describe it in the words of "Total War".
