A Realistic Mount & Blade Game

#39 - Panic Rush

The Swadian infantry and light infantry formed a spear phalanx, which was not the kind of hedgehog formation that could only stand in place.

Instead, it was similar to the Macedonian phalanx, capable of flattening spears, moving forward, and pushing horizontally!

This required a high degree of organization and training.

Coincidentally.

Both of these conditions were possessed by the Swadian infantry, a Tier 4 unit, and the Swadian light infantry, a Tier 3 unit!

"Kill!"

These Swadian soldiers advanced steadily.

Shoulder to shoulder, closely packed together, they advanced step by step, thrusting their spears forward in a continuous barrage.

In the eyes of those gnolls and goblins, they saw a row of burly human soldiers holding a shield wall in front of them, then thrusting those long, thick, and sharp spears, pushing horizontally like hydraulic presses, already terrified!

Any gnoll or goblin appearing in front of the spears, whether wielding a scimitar or a battle axe, could only futilely swing it two or three times, knocking down one or two or three of the spears thrust at them.

But before they could swing their weapons again to knock down the next thrust, they would find that their chest, abdomen, or even neck and face had been hit by the sharp spearhead, stabbed in fiercely, lingered for half a second, then quickly pulled out, and then stabbed in again by another spearhead!

As long as these gnolls and goblins stood in front of the Swadian soldiers and had not yet collapsed, they would be riddled with bloody holes in an instant, unable to block at all!

And unable to block!

With this kind of spear phalanx, long spear phalanx, or even super-long spear phalanx, it's easy to block a few spearheads in front.

But facing a group, a continuous barrage of thrusts like a wave.

Can they also block the next few rounds of thrusts, or even the Swadian soldiers in the second or third row, deliberately thrusting diagonally, specifically stabbing at the ribs!?

The Calradia continent of the Mount \u0026 Blade world, since the collapse of the Calradic Empire hundreds of years ago, has experienced countless wars.

The melee of the six kingdoms alone has been going on.

Moreover, in addition to the major wars of the six kingdoms, there are also internal struggles between various forces or lords within the kingdoms.

Even the endless bandits need to be cleared.

This has led to an extremely high density of wars in the Mount \u0026 Blade world, so the various tactics developed, and the tactical literacy of the soldiers, can be said to be extremely high!

A mere group of gnolls or goblins from the desert border of the Spirit Realm, usually bullying serfs or conscripts is fine.

But encountering young men from the Mount \u0026 Blade world who are eager to make contributions for honor and money, voluntarily accept recruitment to become soldiers, and have been instilled with truly complete combat skills by the Mount \u0026 Blade system during the upgrade process, as if they have truly experienced four or five years of battlefield fighting in the white light before completing their promotion into these living war machines.

It's simply a self-inflicted joke!

"These… these human soldiers…"

"How could they be militia!?"

Even Zhang Caidong and the Sun brothers, who had pushed open the fire door of the stairwell, were filled with disbelief at this moment.

What they knew from the intelligence before was just a dozen or so human militia from the Spirit Realm on the seventh floor.

They didn't even have leather armor, and the weapons they held were more like inferior humans with farming tools!

How could they encounter a group of fully armed elite soldiers before reaching the seventh floor, with helmets, armor, and leg armor all complete, and all of them fully armed with chainmail?!

And looking at the back of these soldiers, a full stone castle that appeared in the dim light of the stairwell…

How could the three of them not be surprised?!

"Wait! That young fellow that the gnolls were talking about, the lucky one who found the Spirit Realm imprint, definitely didn't get a dozen human militia!"

At this time, Zhang Caidong suddenly reacted, his voice as if squeezed out from between his teeth: "It's a Lord Inheritance!"

"Lord… Inheritance!?"

When the Sun brothers heard this word, visible tremors appeared on their entire fat faces full of fierce flesh, and deep greed and jealousy appeared in their squinting small eyes.

Especially when looking up at the front, less than 20 of the 34 goblins under their command were left after a short encounter.

Their faces showed even more heartache and resentment.

But they knew what the Lord represented.

Even if they didn't know.

Now, facing such elite soldiers, and still in the narrow corridor, fighting head-on and falling into a disadvantage.

How could they not understand?

"Retreat!"

The second brother Sun immediately roared, ordering the goblins, who were confused because they had fallen into a bitter battle from the beginning and had many companions stabbed to death in a few encounters, to retreat.

"Yes! Retreat!" At this time, Zhang Caidong also reacted, and at the same time shouted to his gnolls to retreat.

His eyes were equally pained.

Because his gnolls were the same height as ordinary people, with long legs, and ran fast.

This also led to the fact that in the initial few rounds of harpoon volley, and when the spear phalanx pushed horizontally, his 13 gnolls died the most, and now, at most, only 6 gnolls were left wailing and retreating.

This made Zhang Caidong, who was not strong to begin with, feel despair in his eyes when he saw these 6 gnolls who were still more or less injured!

In this era, whether you have the inheritance of the Spirit Realm imprint, and whether you have Spirit Realm creatures following you, is the most important thing.

This is the symbol of strength.

The stronger the Spirit Realm inheritance you obtain, and the more powerful you become as a professional, the stronger your strength is.

At the same time, the stronger and more numerous the Spirit Realm creature followers you obtain, the same shows that your strength is not low.

After all, when you obtain a large number of Spirit Realm creature followers, it will also cause special Spirit Realm rule changes, allowing you to become more like the Spirit Realm creatures you have followed, possessing various characteristics and powers of these creatures, and even certain extraordinary talents, and so on.

Looking at the Sun brothers next to him is an example, looking fat and strong, holding a warhammer with a fierce look.

In fact, that is indeed the case.

They did not release a large number of goblins at the beginning, but instead used the power of the space-time crystal core fragments to transform their bodies towards the goblin, becoming stronger, sturdier, fatter, and shorter, while also becoming more and more similar to the appearance of goblins.

This is also why Zhang Caidong would so strongly win over the two brothers, because their combat power is indeed strong!

But these have nothing to do with Zhang Caidong.

After a wave of bloody battles.

7 of his 13 gnolls were reimbursed.

And there is no possibility of any income.

Then it means that Zhang Caidong will not only suffer serious damage to his strength, but also fear that his position as deputy captain in the Diesel Company will be removed!

Zhang Caidong knows very well how realistic the Diesel Company is, where the strong are always on top.

Of course, at this time, Zhang Caidong was also panicking as he broke into the stairs, and began to flee back the way he came.

Including those gnolls and goblins, and the Sun brothers.

They were almost rolling and crawling.

They were just afraid that the elite human soldiers behind them, and the human lord who must have obtained the Lord Inheritance, would continue to lead the elite troops to rush out and chase them!

"Damn it! Damn it! This is a human lord! This is a human lord!!!"

"You have to compensate us for our losses! Zhang Caidong!!"

Only when they fled out of the apartment room, the Sun brothers were completely angry.

They looked at the 17 goblins who followed them out, all of them with wounds on their bodies, panting, and with extremely panicked followers on their faces, and after the panic, they saw Zhang Caidong next to them, who insisted on dragging the two brothers out, and at this time they hated him so much that they wanted to grind their teeth to pieces.

If it weren't for Zhang Caidong, how could they have suffered such great losses!

"I… I…" Zhang Caidong was even more annoyed.

When eating meat before, he didn't think about himself.

As a result, now that he has been caught, he wants to blame all the losses on himself, how can there be such a good thing?

Zhang Caidong was just about to angrily scold a few words, but when he saw the fat faces of the Sun brothers, which obviously carried murderous intent, and thought that he now only had 6 gnolls left, his heart suddenly skipped a beat.

He still forcibly gritted his teeth and slowly explained: "This time, the three of our brothers have suffered, but it's not a complete loss."

"What do you mean?" The eldest Sun looked at him fiercely and asked.

"A human lord, or a newly descended human territory! Do you understand what this means?"

"As long as we bring this news back!"

"The Diesel Company will have to give us a chance to show our merits! You need to know that a new wave of Black Tide is coming soon! Countless undead monsters will appear during the day! Attacking all visible territories!"

"Our Diesel Company is also one of the largest targets in this area that will face the undead monster attack!"

"If the Diesel Company can obtain the territory core fragment controlled by this human lord before the Black Tide…"

"Then it will be able to get through the Black Tide more easily!"

"Even…"

"Overpower those wood elves of the Green Leaf Group!"

At this time, the more Zhang Caidong analyzed, the more he revealed a certain bewitching and excited look on his face.

Because what he said was indeed very reasonable.

To the point that even the two brothers of the Sun family were brought into Zhang Caidong's thinking at this time, and subconsciously nodded.

"That's right, then we should go back and report to the Diesel Company."

"That's how it is."

Hearing this, Zhang Caidong smiled: "Then, let's go, this is an opportunity for us!"

Only when he turned his head, his eyes were full of indifference.
