Chapter 146: The Great War Between Humans and Beasts
After a fierce battle between heaven and man, the king and Ishihara Kuma still pressed the money on the Wana Beastman Wolf Cavalry! Looking at their cold sweat, I have a sense of disdain in my heart!
It's finally time for the two armies to make their debut! The barbaric heavy infantry of the Kampas Empire is completely within everyone's expectations! Each person brought a magical beast on stage! Most are level 5, with over 200 level 6, and less than ten level 7! Their breeds are very diverse, including magic wolves, magic bears, giant pythons, poisonous giant spiders, and even flying 'lightning eagles'! It's really colorful!
I realized that these magical beasts are not controlled by the power of magic contracts, but rather by a kind of beast-taming method invented by the barbarians themselves! This constraint is obviously very weak! It's just an entry-level technique, and I've already discovered situations where the magical beasts don't cooperate! There are quite a few magical beasts that refuse to follow their masters into battle, with dozens of them being high-level ones! If they were to go berserk during combat, it would be their masters who would suffer first!
This kind of confrontation between two armies is all about coordination, and individual combat power comes second. Troops like the Magic Beast's Barbarian Heavy Infantry, which don't listen to orders, I absolutely believe they can't withstand a single blow!
If the performance of the Khampa Empire's barbarian heavy infantry made me slightly relieved for my own bet, then the appearance of the Wana Beastman Wolf Rider completely put me at ease! Fortunately, I had my own judgment, if I listened to Ishihara Koji's judgment, that pig head, I wouldn't even have time to cry!
The Wana Seven Princess's Beastman Wolf Cavalry has undergone a significant change today! Firstly, they have transformed into infantry, with the wolves being led in without riding them. I suppose it's not just to conserve the wolves' physical strength! If I'm not mistaken, they will soon become the main force against the enemy's magical beasts! Secondly, the Wana Beastman Wolf Cavalry has changed their weapons, replacing their narrow war knives with war hammers! Although from a craftsmanship perspective, they should be hastily made garbage! However, as long as the war hammer is sturdy, its appearance doesn't matter!
"How can the Wan'nan beastmen wolf cavalry turn into infantry?" The king asked discontentedly: "The cavalry may not necessarily win, how can the infantry?"
"Ah! Look at the barbarian heavy infantry of the Kampas Empire, they indeed have many 6th and 7th level magic beasts! Can those wolf riders fight against them?" Ishihara Kuma asked anxiously.
"The beastman wolf cavalry of Princess Wana Qi has won!" The poor Taoist said with certainty!
"Why?" the king asked in surprise!
"From the perspective of demons, wolves are the most cooperative in demonic creatures. Their group tactics are not inferior to those of human regular armies! As for the barbarian demons of the Kampa Empire, although their individual strength is slightly stronger, they are disorganized and fight separately, so they are definitely no match for the demon wolves in a group battle!"
"What about him?" Ishihara Kuma asked: "How's the personnel situation?"
"As for the personnel, the beastmen are slightly stronger than the barbarians. The weapons are all war hammers, and as for armor, I think it's extremely foolish to wear iron plate armor under a war hammer attack! Apart from making their movements more clumsy, there is no benefit at all! It would be better to wear leather armor, which at least doesn't affect movement! So overall, the beastmen wolf cavalry of the seven princesses have the advantage!"
"That's great, it seems we've won again!" The king said with satisfaction!
"Not necessarily!" The poor monk likes to pour cold water!
"What's to be done now?" The king asked anxiously!
"I'm telling you, humans and beasts are separate! Don't forget that the barbarians of the Kanpas Empire were originally beast tamers, their coordination with magical beasts is absolutely seamless! If both sides squeeze together to fight, including humans and beasts... it's really hard to say who will die in whose hands!" I said with a smile.
"Huh? So who exactly won in the end, you or did nobody win?" The king said gloomily.
The poor Taoist smiled slightly and said: "Don't worry! Because I believe that the princess will have a way to solve it! Although I haven't thought of it yet!"
Cut the crap! The battle below has already been declared!
Due to the Kampas Empire's barbaric heavy infantry all wearing iron armor, their movements are not convenient. So they all stand in place, forming a ring-shaped defensive formation. The magical beasts all stay by their masters' side, fortunately coordinating with each other during battle.
The 7000 wolf cavalry of the Wana Qigong princess were divided into three parts under the command of the magic whistle, slowly approaching their opponents! In the middle were those 1000 wolf riders, with 500 beastmen on either side! The wolf riders took the lead and slowly approached their opponents!
Suddenly, a dozen or so agile wolves broke away from the main force and surrounded the barbarian heavy infantry's formation, yelping incessantly as they sat on the ground or jumped around.
Facing such a provocative and barbaric heavy infantry formation, the demon beasts in it are a bit uneasy! They are all hot-tempered guys, seeing such a arrogant demon wolf dare to swagger in front of them, they want to go out and teach it a lesson! But soon they were suppressed by their master!
Upon seeing this situation, the wolves became even more excessive. They not only howled at 6th or 7th level magical beasts that were stronger than them, but also approached to within just a few meters of the formation! It wasn't until they were struck by the barbarian heavy infantry's flying axes that they knew to dodge.
But they soon discovered that the flying axes of the barbarian heavy infantry not only hit the enemy, but also did not cause much damage, so they came to provoke them again and again, until finally a magic beast with a particularly violent temper could not help but rush out!
The first to lose control was the Seventh-level Wind Demon Tiger, which had obviously been tamed for a short time and still retained its wild nature. After being thoroughly enraged by the provocation of the demon wolf, it no longer cared about the restraint of its master and charged towards the outer circle of demon wolves. It's not surprising that it was brave, normally, it could kill dozens of demon wolves without any problem! If there were too many wolves, it could also rely on its wind-like speed to escape quickly.
The power of a model is infinite! As soon as it took the lead, other demons also joined in the pursuit and killing of the magic wolf! In just a short while, they chased out 700 or 800!
Dozens of wolves that had passed through the beehive retreated to the main force at high speed! Although they ran fast, but compared to the wind system's magic beasts, they were still a bit slower! Less than ten escaped back! However, their mission was accomplished very well! The barbarian heavy infantry and the beasts were completely separated!
As the whistle sounded, the head wolf let out a long howl and the pack collectively launched a general attack, tearing into the motley army that followed! The difference between organized and unorganized fighting strength is really not the same! These wolves all understood coordination, some were responsible for attracting attention, others partnered up to surround and attack, and some even knew how to provide support! Moreover, the pack of wolves was extremely united, at least there was no internal conflict!
But it's different with the miscellaneous troops! The irritable demon beasts were squeezed by friendly forces and couldn't move, they might kill a bloody road out, and then erupt into an internal war! Some demon beasts are even born enemies! Like the magic tiger and magic leopard, they are sworn enemies at first sight! Normally, they don't dare to raise them together, but now on the battlefield, they immediately fought each other!
The commander of the barbarian heavy infantry was also depressed. These demons were fierce, but they just didn't listen! Now most of them have run out, and even blocking them is no use. There are 1000 wolves waiting for him over there, he's afraid his own demons will be outnumbered, so he has to let the rest go too! And ordered the troops to hurry up and merge with the demons!
It's not easy to separate them, can they be reunited? The beastman is not a vegetarian either. After all the barbarian heavy infantry monsters were dispatched, they also intercepted the way of the barbarian heavy infantry under the command of the horn! Both sides launched a fierce battle!
At the beginning, the barbarian heavy infantry's flying axes were a big hit. The beastmen had large bodies and their leather armor was not very defensive, so they were easily smashed by the flying axes! A wave of flying axes flashed by, and they would fall down in waves! To say that the beastmen's strong bodies didn't fear the flying axe attacks at all, at least taking a few hits was absolutely no problem! But if their heads were hit once, the sharp axe blades would split open their skulls, directly smashing their brains to pieces! Most of the dead beastmen ended up like this!
However, the barbarian heavy infantry had too few throwing axes, only three per person. The 3,000 throwing axes caused hundreds of casualties among the beastmen, but failed to achieve a decisive victory! When the two sides engaged in close combat, the barbarian heavy infantry was completely useless!
Their armor did not provide them with safety, but rather made it more difficult for them to dodge the beastmen's warhammers! Under the powerful force of the beastmen, their warhammers could easily shatter the heavy armor of the barbarian infantry, causing them fatal injuries, usually each barbarian infantryman would fall forever after being hit once! And also because of the hindrance of the armor, the swinging speed of the barbarian infantry's warhammer was obviously not high, if it were to hit the heavily armored cavalry, it wouldn't be a problem! However, the beastmen wearing leather armor could always easily dodge or parry the barbarian infantry's hammer blows!
Although the commander of the barbarian heavy infantry personally led a group of experts to join the battle, they still failed to turn the tide! When they were knocked down by the beastmen's war hammers! Their demon beast legion was also annihilated under the organized attack of the demon wolves!
