Chapter 570 571. Battle formation coordination

As a battlefield weapon, long swords actually require a lot more application skills and maintenance requirements than war hammers and battle axes.

Therefore, in terms of the general requirements on the battlefield, it is actually not suitable to be the main battle weapon of soldiers.

Geralt has now fully verified this.

The hurried sword fight with the enemy just now made him unable to grasp the angle well. As a result, the primary steel sword of the Wolf School in his hand was not only cut out, but also nearly a quarter of the length of the sword. blade. There is an angular deviation from the other parts of the blade.

The combined damage caused the blade of this long sword to become crooked!

Blades are a key to the lethality of slashing weapons.

Simply put, it is the ability to master the angle at which the blade cuts into the target. An immature swordsman may swing his weapon, but in the end the sword surface will hit the enemy instead of the blade cutting into the enemy's body.

"What the hell!"

Geralt cursed in fear and anger, then stretched out his left hand, and with a 'bang' sound, a cold white shock wave was released, pushing the enemy in front of him two steps away to prevent himself from being injured.

Without any time to think about it, he quickly threw away the scrapped steel sword in his hand, and then pulled out the spare weapon from his waist.

A native Sintra longsword.

The craftsmanship and materials are definitely not as good as the Witcher's long sword. It's just a village item, but it can be used at least.

"Sorry, something went wrong."

Geralt was pushed back to Gerd by the enemy, and he apologized reluctantly.

According to his plan just now, he should be one step away from the crossbowman after cutting down two enemies within two seconds.

Then [Alder's Seal] was directed at the opponent's hand. Even if the opponent's stone crossbow could not be destroyed, the whistle arrow would not be able to fly into the sky.

At most, it was barely launched, and then it was inserted into the ground due to the angle, so even a muffled fart couldn't come out.

The ground was covered with sticky mud. Even if you picked up the whistle arrow, cleaning the mud in the arrow's internal pipe would not be something you could do in a short while.

But now, no matter how good the idea is, it is useless if it is not executed properly.

"It doesn't matter. The situation is not that bad. We have killed a lot. It's not too late to prepare to escape."

Gede swung his sword horizontally, and the neck of a Nilfgaardian soldier made a sound like a big bundle of celery being snapped. The head wearing Nilfgaard's iconic winged helmet flew into the sky.

Then he raised his arm and blocked the side of his face.

Three sparks bloomed in the next moment.

"Ding ding ding!"

Three crossbow arrows bounced off the wrist armor of the High Bear School armor.

In addition to the crossbowman holding a special crossbow, the other long-range soldiers in the Nilfgaardian scout team also began to regain their status.

Gerd and Geralt originally had the advantage of 'surprise' and were able to kill everyone at the beginning.

Now, although there are less than ten enemies left, they are all elites with complete armor and skilled tactics.

The panic of the surprise attack had been eliminated after the first round of offensive.

Three Nilfgaardian soldiers picked up two large shields from the backs of their dead companions on the ground.

Gerd and Geralt had picked out the difficulty of the large shield, so they prioritized taking advantage of the surprise attack to kill the large shield soldiers.

But now that the Nilfgaardian soldiers had lost their panic, they quickly regained their tactical literacy and adjusted their targeted weapons and equipment.

The flickering firelight made the blood-stained great sun emblem on the opponent's shield shine brightly.

The three soldiers who picked up the big shield kept huddled behind the shield. They didn't even have the desire to stretch out their hands and swing their swords. They just focused on getting closer to the two enemies.

Compress the activity space of the two demon hunters.

This is a type of battle formation coordination.

The shield soldiers stepped forward to compress the space, the spear soldiers poked in through the gaps, and the long-range archers and crossbowmen looked for opportunities to shoot in.

There is no way to break through the shield, so just wait until it is pressed inside and poked into a honeycomb!

But witchers are different from ordinary warriors.

Even if they can't smash the shield with their long swords, they still have other tricks that can come in handy.

"You just used the seal, this time I'm here, it's [Yaxi]."

Gerd calmly explained the tactics to Geralt, and the veteran [White Wolf] standing back to back with him understood instantly and nodded calmly.

Gede's left hand suddenly pointed at a shield soldier approaching, and a burst of white magic aura suddenly enveloped the opponent's eyes.

It caused him to lose consciousness for a moment.

And Geralt, who didn't even turn around to take a look, rushed behind him and in front of Gerd without hesitation the moment the necklace around his neck trembled due to the chaotic magic power of [Yaxi Sigil]. past!

"bass!"

Geralt was worried about the quality of the sword in his hand, so instead of slashing, he stabbed straight!

Precise swordsmanship, taking advantage of the moment when the enemy was distracted and lowered his shield, the sword blade inserted into the enemy's mouth!

Then the two of them quickly ran out of the gap surrounded by three parties.

Before Geralt could even take two steps, an arrow made a whoosh sound and almost passed by his arm!

It made him break out in a cold sweat.

Turning around, I saw a Nilfgaardian soldier who had just put down his long bow. He was covering his arm wrapped in armor and grinning.

In the mud at his feet, a stone just fell to the ground that shouldn't be there.

It's Dandelion! He really hit an enemy! And he smashed the arrow!

This can be regarded as saving Geralt once.

But Bai Lang had no time to be grateful to his poet friend. On the contrary,

He shouted anxiously in Dandelion's direction: "Go! Dandelion, go!"

This group of Nilfgaardian soldiers wearing full armor couldn't catch up with the witcher with just two legs, but by the time they got on their horses, the witcher would have already run out of the clearing and entered the woods.

Chasing the witcher on horseback in the woods, this one is like seeking death.

A single [Yaxsi Sign]'s lack of concentration can cause the pursuers to break their necks.

But Dandelion is different, he is just an ordinary person! Or the kind of person with weak kidneys among ordinary people!

And in the distance, the poet, who couldn't understand the situation on the battlefield and thought he had helped, but had already put himself in danger, was still hiding behind a low slope to cheer himself up and prepare to throw out a few more pieces to help. A stone from one’s own friend.

But in Geralt's eyes, the archer who had just been hit by a stone looked at the direction of the stone and had clearly determined where Dandelion was.

Although the current lighting conditions are not good, for archers, judging the direction and distance based on the thrown objects is a basic skill.

So the archer pulled out a Nilfgaardian dagger from his waist and walked in the direction of Dandelion.

Against enemies who can only throw rocks, a dagger is definitely enough.

Geralt was still running after Gerd, but this was just a subconscious move.

After two steps, he suddenly reacted, turned suddenly, and ran towards Dandelion's location.

When he was traveling with the poet, he would always say, "Any god is good, just take this annoying spirit away quickly."

But when it seemed that he was really going to lose this friend, his body started to take care of itself.

But the bad news kept coming.

Not long after the sentry arrows were released, there was the sound of hoofbeats of a group of horses in the distant woods, heading here.

But wait

"Dong dong dong!"

Geralt's already paralyzed expression showed confusion.

Why does it sound like a particularly heavy buffalo is running wildly amidst the hoofbeats of a group of horses?
