Chapter 243 Elf Civil War
As Dark Elfs, each Dread Lord was specially trained in dealing with the High Elves.
After all, for the Witch King, his essential goal is to regain the position of Phoenix King, and the Dread Lords he trained must naturally serve his purpose.
Even though Mousse had spent most of his time in the north fighting Chaos and the Huns, he had still received tactical training against the High Elves.
The tactics of the High Elves are very simple, and it can even be said that they have not changed in thousands of years.
The Phoenix King can mobilize the assistance of dragons and magicians to form the most powerful positive force in the entire world.
The princes and princesses of ordinary kingdoms can deploy White Lion Guards and various types of chariots, and their frontal combat capabilities should not be underestimated.
However, the elven nobles in an ordinary territory can only mobilize a few things.
The basic High Elves' army is pretty bland and boring.
The army composed of spearmen and archers is the combat system commonly used by all elven nobles.
Well-trained High Elf spearmen can hold up their shields to resist most frontal fire.
And in long-term military battles, they also knew very well how to use the spears in their hands to defend against enemy attacks.
It can be said that the High Elves' spearmen are almost impossible to be broken through head-on.
At the same time, in order to make up for the firepower problem of spearmen, archers came into being.
Every archer of the High Elves has more than twenty years of service experience and is able to shoot his arrows in all kinds of extreme situations.
No matter what kind of tortuous terrain or distorted environment, they can shoot arrows up to 180 yards away.
Or to explain it using the shooting range that the High Elves are most accustomed to, that is about the height of 200 dwarves.
Dense rain of arrows, extremely long range, and protection from spearmen.
Such a combat system has been in operation since the establishment of the High Elves' military force, helping them win the initial Chaos invasion.
The only setback was the battle with the dwarf Longbeard.
The tactic of combining spearmen with archers is naturally unstoppable, but the dark elves have already figured out a complete set of methods to deal with this tactic.
The Dark Elf spearmen, known as Dreadspearmen, also have thick tower shields that can withstand most fire from the front.
Very useful against High Elves who rely on bows for damage.
There are also Black Crossbowmen using thick tower shields.
Although their range is not as good as that of archers, crossbows have more powerful damage capabilities than bows and arrows.
Therefore, the dark elves have only one tactic to fight against the high elves, and that is to charge.
Everyone charged forward under the rain of arrows and stopped only after creating shooting space for the Black Crossbowmen.
As long as the Black Crossbowmen were given the opportunity to shoot their crossbows, the High Elves' troops would be the first to be defeated.
At this time, Mousse was already wearing heavy armor and holding a shield and standing in the front. When he saw that the high elf troops had completely stopped and the archers were reaching for their quivers, the opportunity had come.
"Charge! Duruchi! Charge!"
At the command, Mousse ran in the front, and the other soldiers behind him also became more motivated and charged forward with their shields raised.
The sound of arrows breaking through the air became closer and closer, until they were about to hit, and the battle-hardened Dread Spearmen immediately raised their shields.
The arrows that were powerless to penetrate armor had no way of penetrating their spears and armor.
The Dread Lord Mousse didn't even put up his shield. He just slashed the arrow with his sword and continued to charge forward to close the attack distance.
Inside the city, Feselin turned to look at Izeshi. The magician Hoss was just about to raise his right hand to gather the magic wind, but he didn't expect that his action was completely seen through by the sorceress.
He could only put down his hands that were originally about to be raised, and the former also lowered the index finger that he had just raised.
The two magicians were monitoring each other, and no one could intervene in such a battle, no matter what the reason.
In a moment, the troops led by Mousse had rushed into the predetermined range. The Dread Spearmen immediately half-crouched on the ground and stopped advancing. The soldiers in the second row pushed their shields forward to completely cover the people in front.
This can help them resist almost 90% of the arrows shot from the front, and the only cost is that they cannot move. They don't need to move in the first place.
Behind them, the Black Sharp Crossbowmen had already calculated the optimal throwing distance and raised their bows and crossbows. No matter how dense the rain of arrows from the High Elves was, they did not disperse their formation, nor did they attack randomly.
"shooting!"
At the command, all the Black Sharp Crossbowmen seemed to have the same reaction speed, and the interval between firing crossbow arrows would never exceed one second.
Like a torrential rain, the crossbow arrows formed a black cloud, drew an almost identical arc in the air, and fell into the ranks of the high elves.
Although the high elves' spearmen also had tower shields that could protect against penetrating fire, the archers behind them became the targets of attack.
After one round of arrow rain, more than half of the archers were killed or wounded. The most terrifying thing was that this was only the first round of attack by the Black Sharp Crossbowmen.
He quickly squatted down, loaded the crossbow, and then stood up. The whole process did not make any unnecessary sounds. Only eight seconds later, another round of crossbow arrows was ready.
"Shoot! Follow me!"
Another round of arrow rain came. On the front battlefield, victory or defeat is often decided in a split second.
As the second round of arrow rain was thrown, the Dread Spearmen launched a charge. This was the tactic the Dark Elves were most looking forward to, tasting the enemy's fear and blood at close range and triggering the most insane killing ability.
The distance was less than fifty meters, and both sides could even clearly see each other's expressions.
Although the High Elves are not as afraid of close combat as the Empire, they will inevitably feel cowardly when they see the crazy Dark Elves.
The high elf noble who led the team seemed like a fool, his eyes filled with fear.
In his memory, no matter what kind of enemy he encountered, he could kill them all with just two rounds of volleys from the archers.
But in such close combat with the dark elves, he had no morale and was trembling.
"I am your fear!"
Mousse spotted the high elf noble in the crowd almost at a glance and jumped out fiercely. Killing a general is the goal of every fear lord.
On the battlefield, they were born to bring fear to the enemy.
The long sword thrust out, but was deflected by the breastplate made of Iselama silver.
"No blocking or dodging?"
Mousse smiled. It was the first time she met such a fool high elf noble.
"Are you so scared that you can't see my movements? Die!"
