Lord of Riding and Slashing

The situation is a bit dilemma for both sides. It is difficult for Lehman and others to give up their current advantages. After all, they have already breached the city gate and can win the victory by working harder. This temptation is not easy for ordinary people to give up.

But Lehman also understands that the soldiers of the Guard are at the end of the battle. It is difficult to squeeze out a force. They are all recruits on the battlefield for the first time. It is difficult to demand them as strictly as experienced veterans. Just now They were able to hold on without being defeated, and Lehman was very thankful.

The mercenaries on the opposite side saw the regrouped spearmen, and they did not dare to act rashly for a while, because in the narrow gate hole, the spearmen's compact formation and dense spear tips are like a group. The hedgehog makes them unable to speak.

In the end Lehman made up his mind to retreat. Continued stalemate will not make the situation better. On the contrary, it may miss the opportunity. The principle of slamming, declining, and exhausting, Nord has also mentioned to Lehman before. In fact, Lehman In fact, this winter has already begun to study some knowledge about war.

However, the current Tammy Village does not have many resources for Lehman to study. One is to listen to Hill scholars telling some historical stories about war, and the other is to ask Nord for advice. At this time, Nord, who is the king of the mouth, can Tell Lehman about all kinds of tactics, all kinds of warfare, and Nord came in handy, although I haven't practiced it once...

At this time, Nord was standing outside the gate of the castle waiting for the battle. Because of the narrow terrain of the gate hole, the team of more than sixty spearmen was already full, and there was no room for other soldiers. As for why Nord did not rush in with Lehman and others. Do you think I am a person who is greedy for life and fear of death?

Yes, yes, Nord is worried about his dog’s life and does not want to be the first batch of cannon fodder, and Nord is not asking them to die. Nord cherishes the lives of every soldier under him and does not want to make fearless sacrifices. Of course the enemy is another matter. The best enemy is the dead enemy.

But Nord also understood that there were no undead in the war, so Nord was already prepared. At this moment, Nord saw the spearman in the city gate and slowly retreated.

Nord sighed in his heart. It seemed that Lehman and others did not break through the defense of Christenburg as they wished, but depending on the pace of their retreat, the situation should not be too bad.

Soon Lehman and the others evacuated from the city gate, bringing a spearman covered in blood, to Nord, followed by four heavily armed knights and mercenaries from the Christen family. , They stood at the gate of the city and looked around, but did not chase them out.

And everyone’s faces are a bit ugly, because they just walked out and discovered that there were more than a hundred enemies outside, which made the mercenaries’ morale fall directly to the bottom because of the small victory. Double-edged sword.

When fighting a tailwind, they are a group of excellent soldiers. Not only are they rich in combat experience, they are also very cost-effective. They are more cost-effective than training a soldier in their own family.

This is also the reason why most of the small aristocrats in this era do not have many private individuals. Rather than putting money in the hands of soldiers, they prefer to spend money on themselves. Of course, the cheapest is the cannon fodder forcibly recruited from civilians. There is no cost at all, even weapons and food have to be prepared by themselves.

But now Viscount Ollie has no chance to recruit farmers, because Christenborg has only one gate, and the surrounding area is surrounded by a four- to five-meter high wall. Is Viscount Ollie completely enclosed in the castle now? He couldn't even reach the nearby shack, so how could he conscript the civilians in the shack to give him cannon fodder.

Even if Viscount Ollie can send his men out of the castle, the civilians in the shack area will not necessarily obey their orders. They are not stupid, how can they willingly participate in the war, and the remaining civilians in the shack area are all They are overly shrewd and cautious. They may be afraid of Viscount Oli, but they definitely cherish their lives even more.

Nord is not at all worried that Viscount Oli will escape over the wall himself. With his size, it is difficult to go to the Kang (this Kang is an adjective), let alone over the wall, and people can cross the wall, but the horse can never pass the wall. Well, so now Viscount Ollie is the turtle in the urn, and what Nord has to do now is to find a way to crack open this layer of tortoise shell.

Nord looked at the enemies at the gate, and did not order the archers to shoot. Instead, he watched these people close the heavy gates of Christenborg, because Nord knew how much damage might be hurt by shooting now. Individuals, but also expose their hole cards, completely outweigh the gains.

And Lehman also briefly told Nord about the scene of the battle just now. Nord can also understand that there are probably less than 100 soldiers inside Christenborg, and more than 60 spearmen can break through. Risenberg, Nord had to admit that he was really wishful thinking.

But the opportunity lies in front of NORD. Why wouldn’t NORD try, in case it succeeds, so even if it fails, NORD is not too frustrated. NORD has long anticipated this situation. I had already prepared for the siege before.

The previous siege pile Nord has no plans to use ~www.readwn.com~ Not to mention that the heavy city gates will be difficult to open for a while, and it has just been proved that it is impossible to break through the city gates to break into Fort Christopher. of.

Obviously, there is still a little gap between the lancers and those experienced mercenaries and the veteran oily in a purely close combat ability. This point Nord has to admit that the current level of the lancers needs to be improved, maybe After this battle, they can truly be promoted to Amon Spearmen, and they will be able to fight the mercenaries.

Of course, what I'm talking about here is pure combat power. Actually, there are many reasons that affect the strength of a soldier on the battlefield. The most important thing is morale. Although morale is invisible and intangible, it does affect the key to the outcome of a battle. .

I have heard of a theory before. In a chaotic battlefield, a soldier can be considered a good soldier if he can play 30% of his strength. Therefore, even if he is capable, it is difficult to perform on a **** battlefield. come out.

High morale can enable soldiers to exert their strength better, and there are other factors, such as willpower. Firm-willed soldiers are not swayed by external affairs, and often perform better, and Nord handed over to Marko. The training method can hone the willpower of the recruits.

This means that although there is a difference in strength, the key reason why the spearman can stand with the mercenaries, dare not to say that their morale is very high now, even the **** battle just now in the city gate did not affect their morale in the slightest.

They were just a little annoyed. They almost broke this familiar but very strange castle. The reason for the strangeness was that they had never entered. Of course the soldiers would think so, and of course they couldn’t do without Nord’s enlightenment. Of course, Nord knew that it was time to comfort these soldiers who had just come out of the battlefield.
