Chapter 1015 Variables
The campsite of the Western Army was not too far away, and there was no good location nearby.
No way, Gawain had no choice but to set up the camp behind a hill twenty or thirty kilometers away.
After nightfall, Gawain, who was sitting in the tent, carefully looked at the set of armor in his hand, which was ripped off from the corpse of a dwarf heavy armored infantry.
After he stretched his hand into the inside of the heavy armor and groped for a while, the unique touch made Gawain's face reveal a hint of clarity.
"It turns out that, no wonder the group of dwarves stiffened a little and recovered after being affected by the current of the thunderstorm technique. That's how it is..."
To put it simply, John Thrall coated the inside of these heavy armors with a rubber-like substance.
That thing is an insulator to a large extent. As long as the thunderstorm technique does not smear the face, and only hits the armor and shield of the dwarf heavy-armored infantry, there is this layer of insulator there, and the bursting current will be there. largely blocked.
Even if the barrier is not complete, it has already left the deadly level. At most, it will be paralyzed for a while, or the movement will be stiff for a while.
John Thrall's move is indeed disgusting to the junior thunder mages to a certain extent.
They are still weak in spell cultivation, and it may be difficult for them to achieve anything against this method.
At the same time, John Sal was quite clever to coat the layer of matter on the inside, not the surface.
If it is plated on the surface, then a few fireballs will hit it, no matter what material it is, it will definitely burn clean.
After confirming this information, Gawain undoubtedly had to sort out the follow-up attack plan.
After a night of silence, with a mentality of chasing after victory, the next morning, Gao Wen decisively led his troops to suppress the situation again.
After seeing the siege firepower of the Western Frontier army yesterday, Karadin Hei Tie clearly realized that there was a dead end for defending the city.
This made the smell of gunpowder on the main battlefield appear particularly strong.
At this moment, Guo Zhen, who rushed into the battlefield, basically didn't do what he thought, and shouted, 'Fight again! ' After that, he fought directly with Karadin Dark Iron.
Yesterday's battle, the two of them could be said to be inseparable, and no one could do anything about the other. This time, Guo Zhen's fighting spirit was undoubtedly aroused.
And as a dwarf, Karadin Hei Tie is also a violent temper, and coupled with his unrepentant nature, how can there be any reason to admit counsel?
In this regard, Du Yuanzhi, who was standing in the back, didn't care.
Anyway, his warning to Guo Zhen at the beginning was just one sentence, that is, to entangle the fierce general on the opposite side, and then leave it to him.
Under Du Yuanzhi's mobilization, the well-trained human infantry quickly changed their formations, specifically targeting the opposing formation, which made the opposing dwarf army inexplicably uncomfortable.
This kind of uncomfortable feeling is absolutely impossible to experience in the army of orcs.
On the main battlefield, the soldiers of the two armies were fighting round by round, while Gawain, who was located on the periphery of the battlefield, continued to hold his binoculars to observe him.
In terms of military strength, their western army has a clear advantage.
Continue to fight according to this momentum, and fight for a maximum of two days. The casualties of the opponent's troops will definitely be suppressed until they can no longer go out of the city to meet them.
This matter, Gawain calculated clearly in his mind.
However, during the siege battle on the third day, something unexpected happened...
In the gate of the city of horns that rose again, the thunderous shouts of killing suddenly broke out, and a huge army of dwarves was killed from the city.
At a glance, the total number of troops has more than doubled from yesterday!
"Damn! Could it be that reinforcements from the opposite side have arrived?!"
Putting down the telescope in his hand, Gawain's face showed a bit of incredulity.
The sudden surge of troops on the opposite side undoubtedly hit the morale of the army in the west to a certain extent.
This situation obviously disrupted Gawain's original plan to a certain extent.
After a simple round of confrontation, Gao Wen, who had hurriedly ended the siege on the third day, after retreating to the camp, decisively called Du Yuanzhi and Guo Zhen and other generals to his coach's tent to discuss matters.
When talking about reinforcements from the opposite side, as a general who charged on the main battlefield, Guo Zhen was undoubtedly the most powerful.
"The reinforcements on the opposite side don't feel right."
"What's wrong?"
Gao Wen asked directly.
In this regard, after thinking about it for two seconds, Guo Zhen said with a certain look...
"Simply put, unlike the regular army, there is no tacit understanding between each other. When rushing to kill on the battlefield, the whole state is completely over-stressed. Even when colliding with our soldiers, the first reaction is not to attack... "
Speaking of this, the expression on Guo Zhen's face was obviously slightly subtle.
"It's a shock. Seriously, this kind of low-level mistake, in our regular army of Wanjie Civilization, even the soldiers who are new to the battlefield will not make it."
"To make such a mistake can only show that they have not received strict and formal training."
"Besides that, it's my personal feeling. There are so many more troops on the opposite side, but when we were fighting on the battlefield, we didn't feel the pressure increase significantly. Moreover, in the process of fighting against me, The state of the general on the opposite side is always solemn, and there is no joy in the arrival of reinforcements at all."
If Luo Ji was here, he would definitely not be able to sigh, Guo Zhen has really grown up over the years.
No longer the reckless man who picked up the axe and did it.
If he can perceive these in battle, it means that he is thinking and observing.
This information is undoubtedly useful to Gao Wen and Du Yuanzhi.
"Master Goblin King, according to the general's statement, the defending troops on the opposite side have probably recruited the militia in the city."
As soon as Du Yuanzhi said these words, the originally solemn atmosphere in the tent suddenly relaxed a lot.
They also have the system of military service. Therefore, Guo Zhen and Du Yuanzhi, who are military officials, know the combat effectiveness of the militia better than anyone else.
In the final analysis, how strong a civilization's military is depends on the regular army, the militia and the reserve are only a last resort.
Especially the militiamen who were recruited temporarily. They may be farmers who cultivated the land, hawkers selling vegetables, and waiters in restaurants. After being recruited, they were directly thrown into the battlefield without even receiving a short recovery training. .
If you pile up troops like this, no matter how high the number is, it will be 'fake'.
To put it bluntly, it is vulnerable.
Therefore, if the other party is only at this level, then they don't need to be too nervous, they just need to be vigilant.
I will send it to the 6th edition of the guild leader 'Gu Mingdi Lemi', and also thank the book friends for their monthly tickets of 'I don't know why' and 'Walk and walk and disperse 233'!
