Chapter 293
On the field of the Duke's collar border area, the Alda army under the command of Schrodes confronted the Duke Army from a distance.
He ordered the troops to line up tightly for troops, and deployed two -thirds of the artillery on the nearby highlands. Once the enemy entered the effective range, it immediately disrupted the deployment of the opponent. Without the opponent, the opponent cannot be allowed to get too close to the attack formation.
"The enemy is not moving, I don't move, wait for the troops behind the back to send an attack after Qi Qi."
Schroder convened the officers to set the strategy as above.
Opposite them, the mercenary captain Fergus was also looking at his opponent from a distance.
He was surprised as he looked at, "Quickly change the formation, neatly arms, but seeing this posture is beyond the so -called [army] of the Northwest Bay, it is no wonder that you are afraid."
The next to Emison smiled bitterly, "Captain Fergus, let's talk less wind and cool, think about how to deal with the army in front of you."
Fergus grinned: "It's useless to look good, and it is useless to say on the battlefield after all."
He waved his hand: "Come according to the scheduled plan."

"Cavalry! The enemy cavalry rushed towards us!"
A officer holding a telescope shouted anxiously. This was the first time that the second and third battalions were devoted to the front and the Duke Army, and they were very nervous.
Schroder ordered: "Don't panic, notify the artillery to shoot, and delay the marching of the opponent. Infantry! Establish a square array to welcome the enemy!"
With his order, the two infantry battalions quickly formed a large hollow square array.
The loud sound sounded, and the artillery on the hillside and near the square array fired, and the cavalry bombarded quickly with cross firepower.
The Kente family cavalry who had suffered a lot was good at learning this time. It did not impact it with dense formation, but was scattered with each other. This reduced the hit rate of solid artillery shells.
However, the casualties caused by the shells are still considerable, and there are still many people or horses being injured by the shells of the shells that are jumping and rolling.
The cavalry quickly approached the square array, and the soldiers facing the enemy immediately fired. For a while, the sound of shouting, shooting, and screaming were intertwined on the smoky battlefield.
"Wait for 50 meters before firing! You guys!"
Baron Andrew, the head of the worshion camp, hated iron and steel with a whip and pumped the soldiers who lost their losses to fire.
The enemy cavalry was just close, and the firearm rookie stretched the trigger nervously. Although the bullets were more powerful in this distance, they still rely on faith.
The first shooting of the Bayerdin camp was limited. Andrew turned to look at the second battalion on the other side. The number of enemies fell in front of them was much more than before themselves.
The guy was too embarrassed to himself, so he was too embarrassed to Earl Ghanad, so embarrassing Bayerdin.
The cavalry of the Duke Army arrived one after another, and some knights rely on their own horses to wear armor, carrying long guns to the square matrix. Many soldiers were flying by long guns. , But under such powerful, you have to be seriously injured.
The sound of the crackling of the square matrix continued to sound, and the cavalry close to the square array fell to the ground, and could no longer crawl. The Duke Army used a loose formation to approach the Alda army. Although it reduced the probability of being hit, it also greatly reduced the power of impact.
The cavalry impact did not achieve any commendable effects. Fergus and Emanson's face were irony. Many of them were stunned by the officers who played against Alida for the first time. In their impression, this number of infantry infantry was The rush of the square array will collapse.
"Sure enough, it is not an ordinary army!"
The expression on the mercenary captain's face became more and more dignified, and he was arrogant, but he never despised any enemies in his heart, otherwise he was eliminated in his cruel battle career.
He looked at the hillside in the distance, hoping that everything would go smoothly.

"Artillery ... What about artillery? Why not sound?"
The impact and harassment of the cavalry lasted for nearly an hour to withdraw to the departure position, and the Alda army restored the line line.
Schroder's tight nerves were slightly loose, but his heart immediately lifted up again -the artillery on the hillside has not moved for a long time, and his heart appears an unpredictable premonition.
Unfortunately, the hunch became a reality, and a team of people ran down from the hillside, and he immediately ordered the troops to respond.
The matter is already obvious. Schroder is angry. There are two rows of guarding artillery positions. With the help of the terrain and powerful firepower, what kind of enemies can attack?
"Master Schroder, position ... position ... lost."
A artillery officer blushed and reported to him ashamed.
"Tim! Tim? Stand up for me!"
There is no mistake, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one 619, one book, one, one, one, one, one, one, a book!
The old knight was furious and looked around the name of the commander of the artillery position around. Without his order, he dared to retreat without authorization. There were so many people who ran down.
The key is that nearly 20 artillery remains on the position and gives the enemy with his hands.
A officer replied bravely and whispered: "Captain ... Captain who led him and he had sacrificed ..."
Schroeder was silent. He couldn't get angry at the sacrificed person. Moreover, artillery is a relatively precious technical arm, so Tim must have taken this into consideration when making such a decision.
After some questioning, I got a general understanding of what happened. While the artillery on the hillside concentrated on bombarding the cavalry, another enemy army quietly reached the high ground with the help of the cover of woods and thatch.
"It's a longbowman. It must be right. It's ruthless and accurate, and the shooting speed is also fast. Many brothers were hit by arrows, and the infantry guarding the position was suppressed at once."
"You have shotguns. Why don't you use shotguns at such a close range?"
No one answered Schroeder's question.
"you say!"
The old knight pointed at a lieutenant, and his powerful roar made the nearby soldiers tremble.
The lieutenant puffed up his chest like a reflex and replied loudly: "Report to the commander! We did not expect a large number of longbowmen to come, and did not carry enough shotguns to the high ground in accordance with the regulations."
Schroeder was speechless for a while. While the first and third battalions were fighting bloody battles outside, the second and fourth battalions stayed in Arda and Bairding to serve as guards. The relatively comfortable life made them relax.
We must find time to improve military discipline, but the most important thing now is to return more artillery positions. Firearms are the biggest support of the Arda army and cannot fall into the hands of the enemy casually.
Fortunately, when the artillerymen retreated, they brought back the draft horses and the gunpowder. The enemy could not immediately take away the artillery, nor could they obtain gunpowder samples for analysis.
