Chapter 2217: Reversal of the Battlefield

The desert is vast, the yellow sand rises and falls like waves, and there is a solemn atmosphere in the dead silence. The sunlight at sunrise has no temperature, and it sprinkles coldly on the empty sand, casting mottled shadows, like ghosts.

The Niposo army was in place yesterday, but he did not act rashly. He is also a general who has experienced many battles. Naturally, he knows how strong the cavalry regiment is that can capture several cities in the territory of Sand Flame. Moreover, the opponent now occupies Shahe City. This ghost place is also a very difficult terrain for the locals of Sand Flame.

Niposo thought that Lin Jiu's cavalry regiment would choose to contain them here, but he did not expect that Lin Jiu would lead his army to kill them early in the morning.

Fifty thousand male sheep cavalrymen rode on strong goats. The goats' hooves knocked on the yellow sand, stirring up bursts of dust, as if the pulse of the earth was beating violently. The cavalrymen were in a vigorous posture. As the goats galloped up and down, the war hammers and spears drew silver arcs in the air, like meteors across the night sky.

Niposo's 200,000-strong army, with iron cavalry camps, flags covering the sun, lined up in battle array. Shields were like walls, spears were like forests, exuding a strong fighting spirit and oppression. The two armies confronted each other, and it seemed that only the shocking shouts and hoof sounds were left between heaven and earth.

The air was filled with a strong smell of gunpowder and a tense atmosphere, and the eyes of the soldiers on both sides were burning with a fiery fighting spirit. The wind seemed to solidify at this moment, and only the angry glares of the soldiers on both sides and the occasional low roar of the war beasts were left between heaven and earth, foreshadowing the upcoming war.

It can be seen that the Shayan army lined up to face it, and the beast cavalry corps on both wings were also ready to go. Niposo's figure was not seen. A great commander like him naturally had to stay in the camp. Not all commanders were like Lin Jiu and Su Xiao, who led the way on the battlefield.

Even a great commander like Niposo, who is also a demigod, would not put himself in danger. In this world where the power of the legion crushes everything, personal strength is not enough, and once they die or are captured, the morale blow to their own army can be said to be earth-shattering.

Lin Jiu rode on Gun Gun, holding the Dawn Spear in one hand and the master of spearmanship, a battlefield killer, it is naturally impossible for him to sit in the rear safely. It's a pity that he didn't get the battlefield ability of the Iron Feather King at the time, otherwise Lin Jiu would be absolutely invincible in the same level in the war environment.

Lin Jiu didn't shout, but just raised the Dawn Spear in his hand, and then pointed in the direction of the 200,000 troops, and the whole army followed. 50,000 ram cavalry rushed towards the 200,000 troops like a fierce storm. The sound of goats' hooves, the shouts of soldiers, and the collision of weapons intertwined into one, deafening.

The beast cavalry corps on both sides of the Sand Flame Army broke away from the army and rushed towards the ram cavalry regiment. The number of the Beast Cavalry Corps is much larger than that of the entire Ram Cavalry Regiment, but Niposo does not expect to be able to take down the Ram Cavalry Regiment with the Beast Cavalry Corps. If it is really that simple, he does not need to be here at all, and Lin Jiu's Corps would have been annihilated long ago.

What Niposo needs is that the Beast Cavalry Corps and the Ram Cavalry Regiment, both of which are cavalry, will confront each other to delay the impact of the Ram Cavalry Regiment. Stop the momentum of the cavalry's charge, and then surround them with hundreds of thousands of troops.

Relying on its advantages of large numbers and well-equipped equipment, it adopts the tactics of "positional warfare". Then hold the position, use shields and spears to form an indestructible line of defense, and firmly surround the Ram Cavalry Regiment within a certain range, so that as a cavalry, it cannot charge and will be useless. On this basis, concentrate superior forces to counterattack the Ram Cavalry, and you can defeat it in one fell swoop.

This is like two teams with completely different styles on the court. One team uses the running and gunning tactics, while the other team wants to slow down the overall rhythm and pull the running and gunning team into a positional battle. Then the victory is basically determined.

Niposo is worthy of being the commander-in-chief of the Sand Flame Country. He has not really fought with Lin Jiu yet, and there are almost no survivors after Lin Jiu captured the city, so Niposo has little intelligence against him. Still quickly make the best response plan, artificially create an environment that is not conducive to cavalry operations, so as to limit the strength of the corps on Lin Jiu's side.

But the premise of doing so is that the Beast Cavalry Corps can withstand the charge of the Ram Cavalry Corps. In Niposo's view, even if the 70,000 or 80,000 Beast Cavalry Corps cannot defeat the opponent, it should be able to slow down the pace.

But the reality is not affected by his will. The Ram Cavalry Corps swept in like a gust of wind sweeping fallen leaves with superb riding skills and unstoppable momentum. Although the Beast Cavalry Corps is also extremely brave, they seem a little powerless in the face of the fierce offensive of the Ram Cavalry Corps.

The two armies charged at each other, the mountains shook, the ground was trembling, mud and water splashed, and grass leaves flew everywhere. Soon, the vanguards of both sides encountered each other. Weapons collided, and the war sheep lowered their heads, and their curled horns directly knocked the war beasts away, making a muffled sound.

Deafening metal collisions and tragic roars rang out on the battlefield. The soldiers of the Sheep Cavalry Regiment fought bravely like tigers descending from the mountains. Their war hammers and spears drew deadly arcs on the battlefield, smashing the soldiers of the Beast Cavalry Corps to pieces.

Although the soldiers of the Beast Cavalry Corps fought hard, their defense line was gradually compressed and finally collapsed under the tide-like offensive of the Sheep Cavalry Regiment. The battlefield was left with the broken limbs and arms of the Beast Cavalry Corps soldiers and the wailing of wild beasts.

The charge of the Ram Cavalry Regiment was unstoppable, tearing through the defense line of the Beast Cavalry Corps in an instant. If it was the Beast Cavalry Corps led by Su Xiao, it would be no problem to achieve Niposo's goal, but now, even the Beast Cavalry Corps is no different from an ordinary corps in front of this Ram Cavalry Regiment.

Under the leadership of Lin Jiu, the Ram Cavalry Regiment tore through the army's formation and rushed all the way to the core area in the rear, where Niposo was. In front of Lin Jiu's Ram Cavalry, the army led by Niposo was like wheat being cut. Wherever the Ram Cavalry went, a large area fell.

The same scene happened in the battle between Su Xiao and Spring Iron Sheep in the central battlefield. It's just that the roles are reversed. The war sheep and the war beast ran wildly, and the soldiers on their backs confronted each other. At the moment when the two crossed each other, the battle axe and the heavy scimitar drew two cold rays. A large amount of blood sprayed, a sheep head turned in the air, and behind it was the upper body of a dwarf soldier, the battle axe in his hand had been cut in half.

The warrior who killed the enemy looked at the scene sideways, praised the war beast beside him, and rode on the back of the war beast again. On his chest, a wound spanned the entire torso, and the beating heart in the chest could be seen, but he didn't care. As a soldier who followed Su Xiao from Shadu to now, this degree of injury was the third time he suffered it. Killing for a while will be fine.

This soldier was cruel and fearless of life and death. The main reason why he didn't get promoted was because this guy was too murderous, and he was worried that he would need to command others after being promoted. Unfortunately, this kind of person under Su Xiao is not an exception. He has a very bad character, but he is extremely brave on the battlefield.

On the battlefield, soldiers were fighting one after another. 600,000 dwarf soldiers were fighting against 300,000 of their own soldiers. It was not two against one. The war beasts were also powerful. They completely let themselves go and cooperated with their respective riders to kill and bite the enemy.

Looking down from the sky, you can see that the dwarf soldiers fell quickly under the slashing of their own soldiers like wheat. The only one who could resist was the ram cavalry regiment.

In fact, if the military strength was compared, the dwarves would not be beaten so badly. The key is that the black dragon created by Su Xiao restrained the war weapons made by the dwarves, forcing them to use this close combat method.
