Chapter 43
Carrie had a total of 1000 heavy infantrymen which was already a remarkable number for any territory. The main reason being that it was very costly to maintain a troop of heavy cavalry. Although it wasn’t as powerful as heavy cavalry but it was a money burning machine.
Carrie lost about 300 heavy infantrymen because of Demolishers, Glaive Throwers, and riflemen. Moreover, this figure was constantly increasing because of ongoing onslaught.
Their speed of retreat was very slow because of the heavy armors and s.h.i.+elds. In addition, they were retreating in a formation. If the heavy infantry dispersed then the reorganization of the formation would be very difficult. Their movement in formation made their speed much slower. The range of the Demolishers was far so they could hit the heavy infantry almost at any point.
Xiao Yu wasn’t planning to use Demolishers to deal with light infantry. He let them climb to the walls so that archers and grunts dealt with them. The right weapons had to be used in right place for the efficiency.
“Scatter! Scatter! Release the formation!” The commander of the heavy infantry issued an order as he saw the huge casualties and slow speed that they were facing. This way the attack of the Demolishers will be limited and the casualties would decrease. If they went on with the formation then they were just live targets that were waiting to be stoned to death.
The heavy infantry scattered around as soon as they heard the commander’s order. Actually, the front rows of the phalanx were already in panic and about to scatter any time. It was only the rear of the formation that hadn’t seen the terror of the Glaive Throwers that stayed still.
The commander was quick to issue an order to disperse but by this time more than 400 heavy infantrymen were already killed. Carrie’s face had turned pale as he looked at the situation. He fantasized about his heavy infantry breaking through the gates of the Lion town and capturing the place. But who would have thought that let alone winning the battle he lost almost half of his heavy infantry troops in the initial stage of the battle.
“Why the h.e.l.l I have fed those heavy infantry men? I have spent so much to train them and they can’t even beat the orcs! I’ll use them as slaves in mine when we get back!” Carrie had lost his n.o.ble image and was shouting right and left.
“Young master, the enemy has a strange weapon. It looks like a crossbow but with two big wings. They can launch blades nearly two meter in length and cut the heavy infantrymen in half! Neither s.h.i.+elds nor armors can withstand the impact. We will lose more people if we push forward"
Commander from the front line report to Carrie and at the same time waited for Carrie’s instructions.
“Two meter long blade?! It can cut the heavy infantry into two?! What weapon is that?” There was fear in Carrie’s tone as he had never heard of it.
“Master, I a.s.sume it is Glaive Throwers of the elves. I have seen the picture of this Glaive Thrower in the books. It had two huge wings and can send out a blade. The elves had used these weapons in the war with humans in the past. Some human kingdoms had collected those machines but reproduction was very difficult. I a.s.sume, Xiao Yu had made elves to craft it to help him in the battle.” Carrie’s military advisor Dotu whispered the explanation.
“I have heard something similar but have never seen pictures of it. It is said that the glaive thrower is an extremely terrifying weapon on the battlefield. Moreover, the casualties would be more serious the intensive the formation is. IT is a formation killer weapon!.” Carrie’s face was pale than the snow.
…
…
Carrie’s army withdrew back because even the heavy infantry had suffered losses. In short time, they had lost 6000 soldiers.
Hooray~~
Cheers of victory began to echo from the Lion town as they defeated first attack of Carrie’s army.
Xiao Yu didn’t have casualties on his side. There were several grunts who were seriously injured but none was killed. He used healing potion to treat those wounded grunts. The potion was good as it could save anyone as long as the they were not dead. It was a first-level potion so the effects of the treatment weren’t awe-inspiring. But it was good enough to let the wounded person to survive.
Xiao Yu thought that it would be priceless if he could get this potion in his previous life.
Xiao Yu hadn’t lost a warrior but Captain Hui had lose at least dozens of soldiers who were carried down. At the end, the main reason of the death of Captain Hui’s soldiers or the injuries to the grunts were the crossbows used by the Carrie’s army.
The military crossbows could launch arrows from dozens of meters away. Their threat was very large. The grunts weren’t afraid of close combat as their levels had reached new heights and they had armors. However, crossbows were another matter that couldn’t be avoided. Xiao Yu pondered about a solution to solve this crossbow problem but couldn’t come up with a good method.
…
…
The first wave had finished. But Carrie’s army was planning for the second wave of attacks.
“Master, it was very strange that this Xiao Yu can get so many orcs and elves to help. There has to be a demon that has taken over him. I think we can’t be way to aggressive and should carefully get intelligence from the Lion town before doing a final attack!” Military advisor Dotu spoke out his mind.
" Are you r.e.t.a.r.ded? I have brought 20000 soldiers, attacked less than 2000 and ended up with 6000 losses! How do you think I will explain this to father? The other two brothers of mine already have begun to slander me in front of my father. If I go back this time with a failure then I’ll be facing heavy punishment! My life is under a big question now let alone me being the successor to our territory!” Carrie’s eyes were bloodshot as he shouted around.
Carrie was aware that it was going to be very difficult to win the Lion town now. He had brought 20000 troops but didn’t expect to be screwed royally.
“But, young master…” Military advisor Dotu tried to talk but was interrupted by Carrie.
“No~ If I go back like this I will fall out of favor. I must win! Moreover, if I take back powerful weapons like Glaive Throwers then it will be worth it even if I lose 20,000 soldiers. We can work on them and imitate the weapons. Afterwards, we will be invincible. That b.a.s.t.a.r.d Xiao Yu must have other secrets too… Once I learn them and can control grunts then I can conquer the world!” Carrie had turned mad. Normally, madness would push a man to ruin and Carrie was in this state. At this point, nothing or no one could change his mind.
He thought that he must defeat Xiao Yu and take over Lion town. He must learn the secrets of the Glaive Throwers and rule over the orcs! He thought that he could get his chances back in being the first heir even if he lost 20,000 troops but he had to win!
“Inform the army! We will launch a total attack half an hour later! There won’t be any reserves at the back. The infantry, mages, warriors, catapults… Everything and everyone will partic.i.p.ate in the attack!"
Carrie fiercely clenched his fists. His knuckles began to crack while there was a crazy determination in his eyes.
