The squires of Theodosius swarmed around his king in droves toward the city walls.

On the way to the city wall, Theodosius and his party met Mutaliaan and his guards unexpectedly. As for where the Dwarf King was at this time, it is temporarily unknown.

The two nodded in greeting, and after a few words of greeting, they walked together and continued to walk towards the city wall.

They met a lot of people along the way. After the news spread, Mutariyaan and Theodosius ordered the soldiers and officers under his command to go to the city wall to stand by.

It's just that they haven't seen a large army of dwarves so far.

Coming to the front of the city wall, he quickly climbed up the internal stairs. Theodosius leaned his hands on the battlements and looked into the distance, but he did not see the so-called army of monsters, but he was aware of the weather changes in the sky.

He didn't feel that the elves were making a fuss because of this. The sharp eyes of the natural archer were an attempt. He even learned from the book that when the army of monsters gathered, it would definitely be accompanied by dark clouds covering the sky.

The city wall was already busy, bundles of arrows were opened by the soldiers, and the archers climbed the arrow tower through the ladder and began to string their bows.

The soldiers fighting head-to-head carried their own armor, and took over the city wall in groups in an orderly manner. The formed soldiers found their own defense area, and then immediately helped each other wear the armor. In about ten minutes, all the soldiers. People's armor has already been put on. Although their armor is cumbersome, it is not as good as Theodosius.

The army of the Lanyin Kingdom has almost taken over the city walls of Ikopixi, and all the elf archers have been dispatched to the arrow tower. Even Theodosius thinks that his archers are excellent, but he has to admit the difference of races. exist objectively.

The rare marksman among the human beings is only average among the elves. An elves archer with an elf bow is one of the best city defense forces. It’s just a waste to put it on the front city wall. make the most of them.

After the human warriors put on their armor, they began to choose their own weapons. Usually, only two people in a team can use spears, and the others choose swords and shields or swords and hammers.

This is a wise choice. When fighting in a relatively narrow place such as a city wall, it is a better choice to use short weapons with both offense and defense. The length advantage of the spear has been reduced a lot.

If it is not clearly stipulated in the code of conduct of the Lanyin Kingdom, that a squad must have at least two spears when defending the city, I am afraid that no one will be willing to fight with this weapon.

After all, although the spear is a well-deserved king on the frontal battlefield of the field battle, it would be too silly to use it in battle on the city wall. A squad or a squadron put up a scattered formation to cooperate in combat, a phalanx or something is completely impossible.

However, this configuration actually has a certain meaning. If all the short weapons are used to fight, it will become a short-handed fight, and there are not many opportunities to cooperate with each other, but if the long weapons are matched with the short weapons, then The effect is much better.

The specific effect is similar to that of the mandarin duck formation. The soldiers holding swords and shields are the sword and shield players in the front row, and the soldiers using spears are the wolverine and spearmen. The combination of length and length is definitely quite good.

That's right, Theodosius still doesn't know whether this method of warfare can really shine like the mandarin duck formation. First of all, this method has never been clearly practiced on the battlefield. Although spearmen cooperate with sword and shield players often It appeared on the battlefield, but there was no code of practice, and there was no clear regulation for cooperation with each other. Now that there is an exact method of combat, he does not know whether it can produce excellent results.

In the many previous wars and battles, the Lanyin Kingdom has never been defending the city, but in a cycle of attack, siege, and pursuit.

Naturally, spears are not used when sieging a city, and swords and shields or hammer shields are used for close combat. Therefore, whether it is the king, commanders at all levels, or soldiers of several layers, they have little experience and confidence in this.

The Varangian Guards also quickly came to the city wall. They were all dressed in armor and armed.

In addition to the two-handed sword in their hands, their weapons also have a one-handed shield on the back and a one-handed hammer on the waist. When sieging a city, they need to use this set of equipment in the face of human heavily armored units, because The environment inside the castle is often cramped and unknown, and it is more appropriate to use this weapon.

However, on the city wall, the combat environment is relatively wider, and the two-handed sword can also be used to slash horizontally and downward. In the face of dark creatures that are difficult to have any protective equipment, heavy sharp weapons are obviously better than blunt weapons.

These Varangian warriors were not clearly assigned by Theodosius to which part of the city wall to be responsible for the defense, but as a reserve team, they were dispatched wherever emergencies occurred, and served as the responsibility of the firefighting team.

In addition to them, the same is true of the Knights of the Rhine Kingdom. The Ironclad Paladins and the Rhine Knights are late, and their equipment is more complicated than that of the Varangian Guards, which is harmless.

The knights rode their horses on the frontal battlefield and charged into the battle, galloping horizontally and horizontally, almost invincible, but this did not mean that they were weak in foot combat.

Although charging on a warhorse will make them harder to kill and more efficient to inflict damage on the enemy, the warhorse also plays an important role in this. Their kill numbers are nowhere near as good as foot combat.

Just like the heavy tanks on the battlefield of World War II, the soldiers killed by the tank guns are definitely not as many as the vehicle machine guns.

The knights in foot combat, especially the iron-clad paladins, can liberate their great strength and superb swordsmanship, and the effect is absolutely extraordinary when facing unarmored units like dark creatures.

As for the prairie hussars~www.readwn.com~ they were very embarrassed when they were defending the city. This group of light-hearted children of the prairie who came and went like the wind were fighting with the enemy, dividing the battlefield and chasing the remaining enemies, but they were very good at it. Let them dismount and fight on foot, and the hand-to-hand combat with the enemy's hand-to-hand combat will be weaker.

It's not that they can't beat those monsters, but they are better at fighting on horseback than on foot, not like the knights, both are very skilled and powerful.

To let this group of excellent cavalry and the enemy fight on foot would be pure waste, and Theodosius would not let them participate in the defense of the city unless it was a last resort.

As a result, the elven officers in charge of logistics have obtained a large number of strong helpers, and the efficiency has been directly increased by 20%.

After the elf army and the human army all arrived at the city wall, and had been waiting for more than half an hour, the lovers arrived in a hurry. King Godolin's face was still flushed, and the strong smell of alcohol could almost make people feel Smoke a somersault.
