Chapter 2534 Lion clan giant shield line of defense
Those burning stones could explode. Although their power was not as strong as Liu Mang's super bomb, the cavalry within a radius of ten meters were killed and injured. Under the intensive charge, the cavalry suffered heavy casualties.
In the lion army camp, siege thieves were constantly used to throw huge rocks that exploded from cocoa, like shells, landing in the army behind Liu Mang, killing and injuring waves of cavalry after wave.
Before Liu Mang's army could rush to the formation of the Lion Clan army, more than a thousand people had died or injured.
Liu Mang knew very well that it was a catapult for siege. It was really powerful. Now we must close the distance with the lion army as soon as possible. He shouted loudly: "Everyone rushed for me, rushed to their formation, and broke into their formation. Those catapults were useless. Kill!"
"Kill!"
Amid the sound of the mountain, Liu Mang's army was getting faster and faster. Seeing Liu Mang rushing to a place only a thousand meters in front of the Lion Army, he suddenly stepped out of the Lion Army.
Each strongman carries a heavy shield in his hand, which is three meters high and at least twenty centimeters thick. The whole body is made of metal and iron, weighing at least a thousand pounds. There are several holes in the shield, and the bottom is a triangle shape.
The strong men came to the front of the formation and inserted a heavy shield on the ground, and pressed it against it with thick logs behind it.
In just a short time, there was an additional steel defense line in front of the formation of the Lion Clan army. The densely packed tall shields connected one by one, blocking the formation of the Lion Clan army, forming a steel defense line.
The spearmen behind extended the spear tip from the hole in the shield, waiting for Liu Mang's army to come.
Looking at the steel defense line in front of him, the burning stones falling in the sky, and the formation of the lion army, Liu Mang understood why Victor Bolun called the main force of the lion clan the Iron Army.
Even if the head coach is seriously injured and dying, he can still carry out defensive counterattacks in an orderly manner, which is definitely not easy to deal with.
But now that it is at this point, Liu Mang will never be able to lead his troops to retreat, so he can only grit his teeth and rush forward.
The position of the Lion Clan army was getting closer and closer. Seeing that it was less than five hundred meters, countless arrows suddenly burst out from the Lion Clan army formation.
It is an arrow with a diameter of four centimeters and a length of more than one meter, and with a long distance, it is obvious that it is shot from a hard crossbow.
At least a few thousand hard crossbows shot into the cavalry army behind Liu Mang. Facing the hard crossbows, the cavalry had no way to resist. A round of hard crossbows attacked, and at least a thousand people fell in a pool of blood.
Immediately afterwards, another round of hard crossbows attacked, more than the last time.
When Liu Mang rushed forward, he was only two hundred meters away from the lion army. The dense rain of arrows shot over the tall shield, and it was covered with sharp arrows.
Liu Mang paid a heavy price to throw a stone, a hard crossbow, and a rain of arrows. He finally rushed to the formation of the main army of the Lion Clan.
Liu Mang's perspective eyes found that the heavy shield blocking in front of him had been placed in more than twenty layers, which was more than four meters thick. It seemed that those guys wanted to block themselves as the cavalry's knife.
Liu Mang roared, and the one who was far away was a fire dragon kill.
The violent flame dragon took action and flew straight to the shield ahead.
The hard shield made of three meters high and twenty centimeters thick, made of metal and iron were torn apart like rags under the Flame Dragon Kill.
Even though it was more than 20 layers and more than four meters thick, it was still easily shattered by the Flame Dragon Kill. The undecreasing Fire Dragon rushed into the enemy formation and strangled one lion soldier after another.
Immediately afterwards, Liu Mang waved the Dragon God Fist to the shields on both sides, and with his own strength, he made a steel defense line composed of heavy shields by the Lion Clan army, which was at least eighty meters away. He took the lead and led his troops into the Lion Clan army formation with the Dragon God Sword.
Following Liu Mang closely were hundreds of wolf cavalry who had experienced hundreds of battles. Under Liu Mang's leadership, they stabbed into the lion army formation like the tip of a knife.
Behind were the bald cavalry of the Lion Clan, constantly rushing forward.
But more cavalry could only face the inverted steel defense line, rushed to the shield under the rain of arrows, and hit it hard, and many of them were killed on the spot.
Countless cavalry rushed to the front of the shield, and few people could break through the huge shield with thick logs behind them, mostly blocked.
The lion spearmen hiding behind the shield, the spears were constantly assassinating the cavalry of Liu Mang who were blocked by the shield through the holes in the shield. One by one, the cavalry died under the tip of the spear, and the blood quickly flowed into a river in front of the shield.
With shields and spearmen in front, the archers can draw bows and shoot arrows from behind very safely, shooting sharp arrows again and again.
Liu Mang's army suffered heavy casualties, but more and more cavalrymen rushed to the front of the shield, and many of them could no longer withstand the impact and fell down.
Some cavalry rushed to the shield, climbed onto the shield on the back of the mount, flipped over the shield, fought with the gunmen, or directly pushed down the large wood that was reinforced by the shield without fear of death, so that the companions outside could push down the shield relatively easily.
Not only the main force led by Liu Mang, the left and right armies led by Xiong Ba and Meng Ao, also encountered the steel defense line of the lion army. The 200,000 army was like an iron barrel, using shields, spearmen and archers to continuously consume the strength of Liu Mang's army.
It was also very difficult for Liu Mang to lead the army to rush into the inside. The soldiers inside were densely packed with soldiers, and they were all brave and fearless. They were not comparable to those of the soldiers of the Lion Clan led by Jin Wudi. Often, if one of them was killed, two people would come up and they could not be killed.
What's even more terrible is that the archers of the lion army, who completely ignored their companions, kept shooting sharp arrows at this place, and the cavalrymen who entered the formation suffered heavy losses. In just a short period of time, dozens of wolf cavalry died in battle.
Those wolf cavalry are all elite cavalry in battle. Eight hundred wolf cavalry followed Liu Mang to the present, and after several death battles, they only lost 300 people. Now, they lost dozens of people in a short time, which shows how tragic it is.
Seeing that the cavalry was about to be blocked, Liu Mang knew that it was not a solution to continue like this, and if he continued like this, he would be trapped like a quagmire.
The central army had a total of 200,000 cavalry troops, but most of them were stopped by the lion clan's steel defense line and spearmen. Only he led his troops in here, and the cavalry army was completely restricted.
Liu Mang pointed to the right and ordered Victor Boren, "Let's separate, you kill to the right, destroy the shield defense line as much as possible!"
With the order, Liu Mang separated from Victor Bolun, and each led half of the cavalry to cover the left and right, and began to attack the army of spearmen hiding behind the shield.
The spearmen were born to restrain the cavalry, and even if Liu Mang led his troops to rush over, he was not afraid. Many reserve spearmen quickly formed a formation and aimed the muzzle at the cavalry army behind the shield.
