The Invincible Overlord of Heroes
Chapter 520 Dragon and Berserker
Reina's arrangement was very targeted.
She is good at using her defensive skills to bring down the enemy. Although the crossbowman Xu Lai gave her is not as easy to use as the elf archer.
But their attack power is strong and they carry a lot of ammunition. The key is that their defense is not much different from ordinary heavy armored infantry. Among elves who generally have weak defenses, they can even be a whole level higher.
Of course, there are also dwarves, trees, etc. who specialize in defense in the barrier camp.
But the human crossbowman was capable of both offense and defense, and was undoubtedly more suitable for her tactics.
In order to win this battle beautifully and win more battles with less, Reina didn't even use the highly capable archers on the frontal battlefield.
Under the leadership of Yan Feng, the bow cavalry and the gale knights have bypassed Count Aini's large army and searched for the enemy's logistics troops behind the enemy.
Yan Feng and the others are small in number, but their harassment ability is extremely strong. As long as Aini's logistics are found by Yan Feng, they will basically be unable to move forward.
Even if they can't be found, it doesn't matter. Yan Feng and the others are in the rear. When the enemy escapes, they can drive them away, cover up and kill them, speed up the collapse, and prevent the enemy from having a chance to regroup tactically.
At the same time, it can also block the logistics troops in the rear and prevent them from providing supplies to Aini.
Reina was already thinking not only about how to defeat Aini, but also about annexing Aini's large army.
In the eyes of others, this may be impossible, but in Reina's eyes, this is an inevitable result.
But her original plan had a huge flaw due to Jimmy Martell's impulsiveness.
Count Ani's troops, after experiencing the initial chaos, were not overwhelmed by Jimmy's attack.
Aini put up his battle flag and waved it.
Bursts of earth-yellow light fell, and the entire army immediately became inspired again.
Coupled with the inspiring ability of the leadership technique, the morale, physical strength, and fighting will of the entire unit were restored to their peak state.
Although there was no additional morale bonus, the morale penalty disappeared, and after the physical strength was rapidly increased, the soldiers' movements became more rapid.
A large number of infantry emerged from the center of the formation, and the reserve infantry reserved in the rear camp also rushed out of the camp and covered Jimmy Martell's butt.
Caught in heavy siege, no matter how high the morale of Jimmy's troops is, they will be overwhelmed by the endless sea of people.
What's more, although Jimmy is a noble, he is not a hero. At most, he has the bonuses of generals like Suya and Dill, and the attribute bonuses are not even half as good as Aini.
In other words, the ones chosen by Jimmy are all elites, and their equipment is far ahead of those of the miscellaneous soldiers, so they can still hold on for a while.
After Lena witnessed the situation on the battlefield, she couldn't help but put her hand on her forehead.
The task Xu Lai gave her was to support Jimmy Martell, not to eliminate Aini and his troops.
If it was the latter, Reina could have just calmed down and watched Jimmy being swallowed up by Aini's troops.
But now she can't, not only because of Xu Lai's order, but also because Aini did the opposite and directly sent troops to attack the city after surrounding Jimmy's troops.
Although there are still troops and city defense weapons in the city of Martell, they lack the backbone of the defense.
The most critical thing is that even the commander is surrounded.
Without a commander with sufficient prestige to guard the city, even a slight change on the city wall would immediately lead to a morale defeat.
If Aini seizes the city of Martell, he will obtain a large amount of supplies in the city.
Then let alone dragging Aini and his troops to death, it would be good if he didn't be dragged to death by the other party.
Sighing helplessly, Reina was not completely unprepared. She had planned various situations in advance, and it was possible to attack her forcefully.
After touching the ultimate treasure hanging on his waist, the dragon's heart flashed with light, and bursts of dragon roars came from the horizon.
The warriors from the Aini camp noticed it first, because those giant dragons were coming towards them.
"Dragon, giant dragon..."
The same sound was heard everywhere, and Count Ani was frightened.
On the horizon, many golden dragons were seen flying towards the army in the sunshine.
Those golden dragons shrank their heads one by one before they even got close to the enemy troops.
On the battlefield, Count Aini, who had witnessed the battle between the green dragon and the golden dragon, immediately shouted loudly: "Quickly, disperse quickly!"
However, his orders were not conveyed as fast as the golden dragon.
At level 38, Rena can recruit a dragon with 3800 health points.
Because the terrain here is grassland, there is a high probability of summoning a green dragon, a small probability of summoning a golden dragon, and a very small probability of summoning a diamond dragon.
The health value of golden dragons is similar to that of black dragons. This time, Reina recruited a total of 8 golden dragons. Calculated, the total health value of these golden dragons is still more than 3800.
The eight golden dragons bring eight 20-meter-long golden breaths.
The golden dragon is an eighth-level creature. Although its size exceeds 30 meters, its breath is not comparable to that of the holy dragon, and it cannot be completely equal to its own body length.
However, a spit with a width of 3 or 4 meters and a length of 20 meters is enough to cover 60-80 square meters.
At this time, Aini's infantry and spearmen were all arranged in a tight formation.
Although this will block Jimmy and his troops, they will also suffer from the saturation attack of the golden dragon because they are too dense.
After one breath, at least 500 infantrymen were directly burned to death in the dragon's breath.
The point is, this is just the beginning.
Under Rena's control, these giant dragons rushed directly into the infantry ranks and slaughtered them wantonly.
There is no doubt that the most dangerous time for a dragon is when it is flying in the sky.
At this time, except for the long-range troops who still have a glimmer of hope of attacking, they can only rely on the air troops to deal with these giant dragons.
Unfortunately, the entire grassland cannot field a decent air force.
At that time, the orcs were able to be defeated and the orcs were temporarily given up on the idea of invading because an entire organic air legion was destroyed by the wizards of the tower, the dragons of the barrier, and the angels.
It can be said that relying on their powerful defense skills, these eight giant dragons can always roam freely above everyone's heads.
But once they hit the ground, they had to withstand countless infantry attacks.
With the length of a giant dragon, a giant dragon can be surrounded by dozens or even hundreds of infantry.
No matter how strong the defense technique is, if it encounters armor-piercing crossbows with armor-piercing effects, or those that ignore defense, it will still suffer damage.
Unfortunately, these dragons cannot be healed by priests like their own crossbowmen.
For golden dragons that are immune to level 4 spells, even the great healing spell cast by Anna herself cannot save the lives of these golden dragons.
Fortunately, the defense of these golden dragons is thick enough and their health is high enough. Even if they are attacked by armor-piercing arrows, they cannot be killed in a short time.
Because there were more infantry and armor-piercing crossbowmen surrounding them, the breath damage of these golden dragons was not reduced at all.
After saving energy for about two or three minutes, these golden dragons can breathe out once. To kill these golden dragons, Aini must pay a heavy price.
The key is that Aini still has to pay such a price.
Because if we don't take this opportunity to kill these golden dragons, once the enemy commander reacts and lets these golden dragons take flight again, these giant dragons alone will kill them.
But is Reina a fool, sending these golden dragons to die in vain?
Of course that was not the case, she had to do it.
If the golden dragon is not sent over and the enemy's focus is attracted to the golden dragon, Jimmy and the others will be the targets of Aini's attack, and there will be no possibility of escape.
The appearance of these golden dragons is forcing Aini to make a choice.
That alone is not enough.
Reina handed Xu Lai to her, and all the griffins as personal guards flew up.
After upgrading to the castle, the griffon tower is also upgraded to the griffon castle. Ordinary level 4 griffins can also be directly upgraded to level 5 combat griffins.
Xu Lai's griffins originally had about 200. Including his own castle and the acquired parts, the number now is almost 300, and the lowest number are fighting griffins.
Led by 70 royal griffins, more than 200 combat griffons took off together.
Combat dive is a powerful skill, and it is also a skill with extremely long forward swing.
When used on a small battlefield, it is easy to blow up the air or even hit one's own troops.
It can be used on large battlefields and will be a very terrifying weapon.
The key is that the opponent does not have air troops yet and cannot intercept these griffins.
Even Ani, who was focused on the dragon and Jimmy's troops, ignored Reina's actions.
Just as the eight giant dragons died one by one under the armor-piercing arrows of the armor-piercing crossbowmen, the gryphon army, which had been flying for several minutes, was finally about to land on the ground again.
At first, a few royal griffins and a dozen combat griffons swooped down in a group, blowing up many of the defensive equipment and troops on the city wall.
Now, a group of 300 griffons swooped down, with royal griffons even accounting for nearly one-third of the number. Their power was so terrifying that they almost smashed through the entire battlefield.
The smoke and dust flying on the battlefield were tens of meters high, and the number of soldiers blown by the shock wave was even more numerous.
The soldiers at the center of the explosion were well defended. Except for a few nobles whose equipment was extremely good, almost no intact corpses could be found.
The endless grassland is littered with corpse fragments.
The originally green grassland was now dyed red with blood.
By the time the smoke cleared, the griffons had already flown away, and Jimmy's troops, who were protected by these griffons, also managed to escape the battle at the cost of losing more than a thousand elites.
The Qingfeng Legion rescued Jimmy from the siege at the cost of losing 8 golden dragons and half of the griffons' physical strength.
Reina can completely accept such a loss.
Only Aini watched helplessly as his reserve team left in the camp was attacked by a griffon and lost most of it.
Jimmy's tribe, which was surrounded by heavy siege, also escaped and ascended to heaven.
Although his troops are still firmly outside the city gate, Jimmy has broken away from the encirclement and can re-enter the city by finding any weak point.
The trap that had been set up with great effort and at great cost was easily dismantled. Aini was now desperate and had no fighting spirit at all.
After letting out a long sigh, Aini continued to wave the flag and mobilized his main force to pursue Jimmy, while the remaining one-third of the force charged towards Rena's department.
Taking advantage of the strength of his troops, Aini divided his forces into two groups, leaving Reina helpless.
Of course, she could also choose to continue retreating, but Aini chose to divide her troops, which effectively eliminated her possibility of avoiding the battle.
Because once she leaves the main battlefield too far and something goes wrong in Martell City or Jimmy's department, she won't even be able to rescue them in time.
With this aspect in mind, Lena couldn't really avoid the battle completely.
Of course, she is not afraid of head-on combat.
The enemy's hedgehog formation has been destroyed, and now there are only some heavy-armored spearmen in the front row to block it. The left, right and rear sides are all empty.
With a move of the Sea King Flag, several cavalry units that had been lingering outside the battlefield finally started with a rumble.
Joseph led the levied cavalry and cut into the enemy's rear from the left.
Naru led hundreds of knights, the great knights, to cut into the enemy's rear from the right.
At the same time, Brandi led the swordsman troops, followed the knights, and faced Aini's troops head-on.
The gryphons haven't come back yet, and the only Chinese troops protecting Leina are the spearmen led by Fang Fang, and a few scout cavalry and messenger cavalry such as Ed.
The crossbowmen have enough armor, and the priests have no damage reduction in melee combat, but they are not professional melee soldiers after all.
At this time, if Aini can still send an elite force to penetrate directly into the central army, the small number of spearmen should be unable to resist.
Even if it can be blocked, it can only block one side and cannot protect everyone.
Reina didn't panic at all. She even took the initiative to lead all the remaining troops to follow after the infantry moved.
This prevents priests from being unable to heal infantry due to insufficient casting distance.
Griffins circled overhead. Although the cavalry did not have Xu Lai's blessing, they were not slow in the home terrain of the grassland.
When these cavalrymen penetrated the butt of the formation, the morale of this unit quickly collapsed.
The spearmen and swordsmen in the front row met, and with the support of Reina's defensive expertise, both sides fell at an extremely exaggerated speed.
Although the spearmen's stabs also have a speed bonus, they cannot penetrate the heavy armored infantry after all.
But behind these pikemen, there are many berserkers with zero defense and all defense converted to attack.
These topless berserkers have two characteristics. They have extremely long health bars and extremely high attacks. The two-handed axes also have the effect of partially ignoring defense.
Aini and his family have been in business for so many years and still have some high-level warriors in reserve.
These more than a thousand berserkers are Aini's hope for a final breakthrough.
He secretly hid these berserkers among the ranks of spearmen, and when the two sides were in close combat, he completed the comeback task of killing the general and seizing the flag in one fell swoop.
It's a pity that Reina never gave the other party a chance to get closer.
Now we are able to get closer, but due to the long-term continuous attack and the penetration of the rear, morale has dropped drastically and the attack power has been weakened too much.
Moreover, the casualties on both sides were completely disproportionate. Before the morale of Qingfeng Legion dropped below 90 points, the morale of this unit had completely collapsed, and soldiers continued to be recruited and began to escape.
If someone takes the lead, no matter whether they are recruited or not, the number of escapees will only increase.
Count Aini, who saw this scene from the watchtower, was also completely desperate and planned to leave a group of people behind while the troops in front had not escaped.
Whether it is the troops attacking the city or the team chasing Jimmy, they cannot achieve results in a short time.
But if he waits for the female elf to get entangled, he won't be able to leave even if he wants to.
But before he could come down from the watchtower, he saw his chief mage advisor looking behind him with a horrified look on his face. (End of chapter)
