But Bucky had seen bloody scenes before.
He didn't feel any fear now. He lowered his arms and looked around. Everyone was in such a relaxed posture because they were used to conserving their physical strength as much as possible before fighting. Otherwise, their arms would be sore before the enemy even arrived. If they really fought, it would be fatal.
The soldiers of the nobles had finished forming up and began to march this way …
Bucky felt that these lords who were ready to rush over did not seem to have a unified opinion. Some people wanted to outflank them from the side as they walked, but because of this, they were squeezed together with the other troops. The people in the middle gradually became disorganized as they marched. If it weren't for the noble flags that were erected to maintain the formation, the stumbling infantrymen would soon be in a mess.
During this process, Bucky still did not move, nor did he look back. He just felt that the tension in his heart had inexplicably calmed down a lot. When the enemy in front of them entered the range of 500 meters, the company commanders' orders came from the rear of the team, and then these orders were passed down level by level, turning into the roar of the platoon leader in the middle of the team: "Draw your swords! Raise your shields! "
The sound of swords being unsheathed rang out. At this moment, the originally cold blood seemed to be directly ignited. When the round shield was raised forward and the center of gravity of his body sank slightly, Bucky felt the spear on his shoulder from his companions in the back, as well as the heavy breathing of his comrades under the helmet.
He turned his face sideways. The crystal inlaid on the charging spear was clearly visible, and the side was covered with magic patterns that he couldn't understand. When he looked back, the cavalry in front of him had already begun to sprint!
At this moment, a series of intensive explosions sounded from behind. Bucky narrowed his eyes, and countless shadows streaked across the top of his head, and then the cavalry instantly exploded with a large amount of fire — —
The familiar scene played out again. Bucky saw the well-dressed knights screaming and flying into the sky, turning into minced meat on the ground, and the infantrymen who had already begun to charge seemed to be frightened by this scene, and there was a brief pause.
But then Bucky's eyes narrowed, because he saw an orange parabola appearing behind the fire. When he saw that it was a fireball, his and the surrounding soldiers' expressions changed …
"It's a magician — —"
"Magic defense action! Raise your shields! "
The squad leader's roar interrupted their words. Hearing this command, Bucky and all the soldiers around him instinctively raised their shields, squatted down, and shrunk themselves into a ball like a defensive arrow …
"Boom boom boom!"
Explosions rang out in front of him. These fireballs were obviously not accurate, and most of them landed on the empty ground in front of the formation. However, there were still a few that landed in the middle of the group. Baki was in the first row, and a fireball landed two meters in front of him. The violent airflow and vibrations made him, who was kneeling on the ground, feel as if he had been hit head-on by a giant hammer, and his body directly fell to the ground.
However, the shield produced by the Elsen military factory was exceptionally sturdy. When he was pulled up by his teammates, other than the shield being a little hot, there were no extra wounds on his body.
"Return to the team if you can still fight! Hurry, hurry, hurry! "
The class leader's voice was a bit hoarse. In fact, this was because his ears were temporarily deaf because of the explosion. Bucky's ears were buzzing. Although he could not hear clearly, he knew what he had to do by looking at the other party's gestures. Picking up his long sword that had fallen to the ground, he quickly ran back to his original position and regrouped with his comrades to form a shield wall. When he looked up again, the artillery had already covered the enemy magician who had just cast a spell …
The blue magic shield kept flashing, but after the third wave of artillery fire, the fire engulfed everything.
At this time, the enemy's cavalry had basically disintegrated, and the remaining infantry were moving forward by inertia. The two rounds of bombardment had obviously stopped their footsteps. The part of the soldiers that Bucky was facing stood dumbfounded and did not move, while the infantry on both sides continued to advance under the leadership of the surviving lords. When they were two hundred meters away, a wave of arrows appeared in front of them. All the soldiers continued to raise their shields to defend. The sound of "Jingle" rang out, and none of the arrows that were not powerful could penetrate the solid shields. The soldiers silently waited for the arrows to pass. When the order to "end the defensive posture" came, the enemy in front had entered a range of fifty meters.
The artillery fire in the rear began the fourth round of bombardment, and the shells fell in the middle of the enemy's rear position. But because there were only ten cannons, the power was not enough to carry out a "fire coverage", and the most powerful double-barreled artillery vehicle was stopped in the rear because of a malfunction, so the enemy's morale was not completely destroyed, and they still launched a charge.
Forty meters, thirty meters … The dozen scattered cavalry at the front had no courage to charge because they were injured by the artillery explosion. They had to bypass the infantry formation formed by Bucky and his comrades. The next moment, the sound of a charge came from the rear.
"Go! Go! Go! Charge! "
The squad leader ordered loudly, but this kind of charge was not a rush. Bucky raised his shield sideways, and the blade of the dagger in his right hand was placed on top of the shield. His eyes swept left and right, and everyone in the first row tried their best to maintain a line, and they advanced step by step.
The shield wall formed by hundreds of round shields had an abnormally strong visual impact. Every time he took a step, the sound of armor rubbing against each other would be like waves crashing against the shore.
One step, two steps …
When he took the third step, the comrades on both sides had already begun to engage the enemy. The sound of weapons colliding with shields became one, and the roars and wails mixed together, causing Bucky's muscles to tense up.
"Kill! Kill! Kill! "
The enemies in his field of vision no longer hesitated, and they clearly understood that they could only fight head-on. The squad leader beside him no longer gave any orders, because every time the exercise reached this distance, the infantrymen only had to do one thing: swing their weapons and kill all living things in front of them!
The noise engulfed everything. Bucky took a deep breath, stared at the guy in front of him with an axe in his hand, and suddenly began to accelerate forward.
"Hey!"
The opponent instinctively raised the tomahawk, but the biggest disadvantage of this kind of heavy weapon was that it took a long time to charge up. Bucky kept this in mind during training, so he had already smashed the opponent's chest with his shield before the opponent's axe had even chopped down!
"Bang!"
Because of inertia, the axe still fell on his back, but the metal armor on his body seemed light, but in fact, its defensive ability was extremely strong. After suffering such a blow, Bucky's body only tilted a little, but his movements were not affected much. On the other hand, the other party was knocked off balance by him and was in a state of stiffness. Bucky saw this and directly waved his dagger and slashed the enemy's neck!
This was the first time he used a weapon to kill a real person. Because of his nervousness, his movements were distorted, but the enemy was only wearing cloth clothes. The dagger directly slashed into the neck, and blood splattered everywhere.
The opponent fell to the side without even shouting. Bucky wanted to pull out the sword, but found that the blade was stuck in the bones and muscles and could not be pulled out. He could only kick the opponent's body and use the other hand to pull out the sword. At this time, he heard a "bang" sound coming from his helmet, and his body involuntarily swayed forward. When he turned his head, he found that someone was attacking him from behind.
The opponent was holding a dagger in his hand, but at this time, the blade had bent from the middle to the side, obviously because it had hit Bucky's helmet …
Bucky was secretly shocked and lifted his foot to kick the opponent to the ground. The enemy in front of him was very thin and weak, and the kick was light. Before Bucky could go up and finish the attack, his comrade next to him had already stepped on the opponent's face …
"Rush over!"
Bucky heard their roar and twisted his body to continue forward. After these two rounds of battle, his body was completely in the right state. Facing those who tried to attack him, he found that he could easily block the opponent's attack as long as he raised his shield. And even if he encountered a tricky swordsman, the sturdy armor could directly slide the opponent's blade away. After he gritted his teeth and slashed seven people, he fell behind his teammates because of his physical exhaustion. At this time, he found that the edge of his dagger had been twisted.
After stabbing an enemy who was struggling on the ground to death, Bucky reached out and hung it back on his waist. He then pulled out another spare dagger, swung it, and continued forward.
The Efta infantry were all equipped with two swords, one long and one short. Compared to the messy and inferior weapons of the enemy, Bucky trusted his dagger, which was slightly longer than a dagger.
He panted and trotted forward, but then found that there were no more enemies in front of him. All he could see in his field of vision were his own people wearing the same armor. He tried to look forward. On the battlefield filled with the smell of burnt meat, there were only various miserable figures lying on the ground and moaning. And beyond the smoke, behind him were enemies who had collapsed and were fleeing …
"Third Company, go support the left wing! Follow! "
The morale of the enemies in the central area collapsed the fastest because they had been directly bombarded, but the enemies on both sides had not been completely defeated and were still in a stalemate. Bucky's ears still could not hear clearly, but he could see that the company commander in different armor was making tactical gestures. And when he saw the order, all he could think of was to quickly carry it out. This was the instinctive reaction of all soldiers.
