The Lord of the Rings: Lords of Middle-earth.

Chapter 759 Projection! Strike halfway across the river!

  "These pigs! They can actually capsize themselves?" Alistar frowned. Fighting with such an opponent was simply an insult to himself!

"Oh! Sorry, my friend, I don't mean to insult you. In fact, they are not as good as you!" The Tutu pig under Alistar's seat suddenly grunted, and Alistar quickly reached out to comfort his companion.

  "Dragon God! What an ugly march!" Alistar frowned and fell silent as he looked at the charioteers who were thrown to the ground in the river. Was he going to fight against such a coward?

Because it is located at the confluence of the Hongshui River and the Jiliu River, the river here is wider and the water flow at the confluence is also faster. The Dongyi people who have lived on horseback and in chariots all year round will naturally make various mistakes during the tense armed swimming.

"Boom!" The sound of the water surface exploding was heard. Alistar looked in the direction of the explosion and saw that it was an aquatic monster attacking a wooden boat... This made Alistar's mouth twitch. What is this saying? When it rains, it pours. Disasters always find the unfortunate? Are these Dongyi people punished by the Dragon God? Alistar, who originally did not believe in the Kingdom's Dragon God, could not help but increase his faith in the Dragon God.

"Hmph~" The grunting of the Tutu pigs merged into one, and the heavy breathing of the Savage Goblins also sounded. This was the first time they faced such a large number of enemies. There were at least several thousand Dongyi vanguards who were pressing towards them in a black mass.

  "Raise your guns!" Alistar said calmly. He couldn't panic. Besides, the powerful Goblin Banner Knights were not something they could easily shake!

"Throw!" Alistar poured his fighting spirit into the short javelin in his hand, swung his left arm vigorously and threw it out fiercely. The javelin with fighting spirit flew straight and steady! Nearly a thousand javelin followed closely behind it!

This is a skill that Roland specially matched for the Goblin Knights! Because the Savage Goblins are so thin and small, they can't use long-range weapons very well. The bows and arrows that can be pulled by their bodies are basically not strong enough, and it's inconvenient to use crossbows. So after comprehensive consideration, Roland decided to equip them with the ancient and easy-to-use long-range armor-piercing weapon - javelins! The 1.2-meter-long javelins of the Empire standard are a bit long for the Goblin Knights, but it doesn't matter! The skillful dwarves will take action! The 1-meter-long javelins are directly presented! The javelins with three-edged armor-piercing spear heads take into account both penetration and killing!

The javelin skill, one of the core skills of the imperial infantry, is a rare thing for the imperial knights. The noble knights disdain to use "villain weapons" (in fact, it is just not as convenient as laying the lance flat...). In order to find the javelin specialized skills for knights, Roland searched all the senior knights in the kingdom, and finally found the knight skill from the treasure master - projection! It can give the target a 100% increase in range and 25% penetration damage. It must be said that Master Adile is really a treasure. He has all kinds of strange knight skills...

Roland went to great lengths to get the arrogant old man to lower himself to teach skills to the goblin mercenaries whom he had previously disdained. Although the old man was loyal to the king, he did not obey the king unconditionally. In the old man's view, this requirement was no different from an insulting clause and was simply an insult to his identity as a hero.

In the end, Roland tried his best to persuade Adile until he was dry-mouthed, but failed. It was Nyx's casual remark that these goblin knights would be the vanguard of the kingdom's counterattack on Lagrande City that triggered the old man's mysterious switch, allowing these goblin knights to learn the knight skill - projection.

……

"puff!"

"puff!"

"thump!"

"laugh!"

As the spears rained down, the Dongyi charioteers on the rafts or boats fell into the water or were nailed to the boats like dumplings. The sound of the spears missing and falling into the water, along with the screams and wails of the Dongyi charioteers who were not dead, formed a horrible symphony. As the blood spread in the river, the entire area turned light red, and the bloody smell attracted the predators in the water! Those aquatic monsters also joined in this bloody carnival.

"Kill! Ah!"

"Kill these beasts!"

"Fire the arrow! Fire the arrow!"

The Dongyi charioteers, who were stunned by the wave of javelins, finally came to their senses. They frantically attacked the monsters in the water and angrily fought back at the goblin knights on the shore.

Don't underestimate the archers of the East Yi Tankmen! There are many nomads who are good at archery among the East Yi Tankmen! Among the professionals of the East Yi Tankmen, archers account for the largest proportion! These East Yi Tankmen archers have shot and killed the King of Gondor on the "moving wall"! Their level of danger is second only to the East Yi Guerrilla Knights! Rune not only gave birth to the Lordaeron Knights of the Empire's Lordaeron Elf Principality, but before the Empire conquered this land, the East Yi Guerrilla Knights wandering here were still deadly!

Compared to the somewhat nondescript lightly-armored shock knights of Lordaeron, the Dongyi guerrilla knights are masters of kite warfare tactics. It is their instinct to wander outside the enemy's range and within their own range. Giving up the long spear and choosing the scimitar and longbow has forged their tactical characteristics. Giving up the clamped spear charge has made them lose their unparalleled impact, but also brought them high mobility that other knights have never had! Moreover, they gave up the noble plate armor of the knights and chose light leather armor and mail armor. With armor on key parts, they have maximized their mobility! It is one of the few archery knights in Middle-earth.

At this moment, these Dongyi guerrilla knights organized themselves spontaneously. They bent their horn bows and shot directly at the goblin knights. In the state of glory, the battle qi flame shield connected with the battle qi easily blocked the arrows flying from all directions. Similarly, their pistols could not threaten the Dongyi guerrilla knights who held up the battle qi flame shield.

  "Bang, bang, bang!" The dense shooting sound made Alistar frown. The Dongyi archers who reacted didn't care who they were. They just pulled up their longbows and shot! Moreover, with the blessing of the archer skills, the arrows thrown by these longbows were dense and heavy. The battle spirit consumption of the entire knight group rose sharply, which made Alistar a little unhappy. Not only did the enemy not surrender, but they dared to launch a counterattack?

"Throw!" Alistar pulled out another javelin and threw it suddenly. The goblin knights behind him did the same as if they had received a wind vane. Immediately, a large number of Dongyi people on the river fell to the ground again. The sharp-eyed Alistar also found that some Dongyi archers were shot dead among them.

"Retreat!" Alistar, who knew when to quit, would naturally not stand there and be hit by a rain of arrows.
