Chapter 155: Winning with Few?
Sighing in his heart, Wang Xiao looked at Tian Gang.
The twelve [Skeleton Soldiers] with swords and shields had already been divided into two groups and formed a triangular formation in the order of “1, 2, and 3”. The [Skeleton Soldiers] at the front seemed to be a little stronger, but it was only on the surface.
...After all, these [Skeleton Soldiers] were all iron level one and were the most basic soldiers. There was no difference in their appearance.
Looking at the three [Dwarf Artilleries] in front of him, Wang Xiao muttered thoughtfully, “Although the number is only a quarter of the other party’s, it shouldn’t be a problem, right?”
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhou Xiruo whispered, “Wang Xiao, you seem to be ‘conceited’ again.”
Wang Xiao was speechless. ‘You call this conceited? If a bronze level level three isn’t even confident in defeating iron level one, isn’t that being too cautious?
Zhou Xiruo opened her mouth but before she could say anything, a red shadow suddenly flew over.
The red shadow was very slow. Wang Xiao stretched out his hand and caught it steadily. He discovered that it was a small flag half the height of a person.
“I’ll now announce the overall rules.”
Tian Gang shouted loudly from the other side. As he spoke, he took out a small flag and placed it in front of him. “You’ll win the flag battle if you obtain the other party’s flag. There’s no time limit, but you have to pay attention to the flag not to be damaged or stained.”
When he first heard the first part, Wang Xiao did not take it seriously. However, when he heard that the flag could not be damaged or stained, his expression immediately became subtle.
The soldiers he and Zhou Xiruo used were [Dwarf Artilleries]. Although their attack range was not very large, each shot would still take up an area of five to six units.
The current rules were already quite unfriendly to Wang Xiao. If Tian Gang continued to guard the flag, he and Zhou Xiruo would definitely lose!
Thinking of this, Wang Xiao could not help but raise his hand and shout, “Teacher Tian! Isn’t this rule too harsh? The situation on the battlefield changes rapidly. Who can care about so many things?”
“How will you know if you don’t try?”
Tian Gang sneered and patted the flag beside him. “If I were the enemy and your teammate was captured by me, would you think of a way to save him or negotiate with the enemy?”
Wang Xiao was immediately speechless because such a situation might indeed happen, and the possibility was very high.
Seeing that Wang Xiao was silent, Tian Gang retracted his hand and retreated to the edge of the arena. “If there are no problems, the training will begin now!”
With Tian Gang’s order, two groups of twelve [Skeleton Soldiers] immediately stepped forward.
Wang Xiao sighed helplessly and instructed Zhou Xiruo, “Attack with the cannons. Pay attention to controlling the distance.”
“Got it!”
Zhou Xiruo agreed, and the three [Dwarf Artilleries] immediately raised the muzzles a little.
Thump! Thump! Thump!
After three loud bangs, three burning iron balls spat out the barrels. Atter drawing a standard parabola in the air, they smashed heavily towards the two teams of skeleton soldiers!
Almost instantly, Wang Xiao calculated the approximate landing point of the cannonball in his heart and could not help but give Zhou Xiruo a thumbs up.
The two teams of [Skeleton Soldiers] formed a triangular formation. It was obvious that the leading [Skeleton Soldiers] were attracting the firepower. If the [Dwarf Artilleries] really attacked it, the five skeleton soldiers behind could also resist the impact of the cannonballs together.
However, Zhou Xiruo’s attack points were very ingenious. She did not directly attack the [Skeleton Soldiers] at the front, but chose the two [Skeleton Soldiers] in the second row.
In this way, although the leading [Skeleton Soldier] had dodged a calamity, its companion had lost the strength of a soldier!
“Well done!”
Wang Xiao could not help but praise. However, before Zhou Xiruo could respond, the smiles on their faces froze at the same time!
The moment the cannonball landed, the two groups of [Skeleton Soldiers] suddenly changed their formation from the initial two groups of six to three groups of four.
Then, they squatted on the ground and placed the shields at the four corners. The three cannonballs landed on the empty space surrounded by the shields.
With a loud bang, the shield instantly shattered, and the twelve skeleton soldiers were also sent flying by the air wave. However, because the shield had offset most of the impact, the skeleton soldiers were actually unharmed!
“What the f*ck? You can do this?!”
Wang Xiao could not help but exclaim. He did not expect this exquisite attack to be resolved by the other party in such a way!
However, although he was surprised, Wang Xiao did not take it to heart. The shields of the [Skeleton Soldiers] had already been shattered by the explosion. This meant that they had already lost their defensive methods! “Continue! Fire the cannons!”
With Wang Xiao’s order, Zhou Xiruo immediately ordered her [Dwarf Artilleries].
With another three loud bangs, three burning iron balls soared into the sky and smashed heavily at the [Skeleton Soldiers] who had yet to reorganize their formation!
BOOM!
After the explosion, the two [Skeleton Soldiers] shattered into light on the spot, and the remaining ten were also blown away by the air wave.
Wang Xiao’s eyes lit up as he pursued. After another round of volleys, although he did not kill any [Skeleton Soldiers], he completely turned their formation into scattered sand!
The ten [Skeleton Soldiers] were scattered all over the arena and could no longer organize a decent attack. However, Wang Xiao gradually frowned.
Zhou Xiruo’s expression was also a little solemn. She went to Wang Xiao’s side and said in a low voice, “The [Dwarf Artilleries] use an area attack. The targets are too scattered now, so it’s very difficult to aim… Why don’t we try the triangular attack?”
“No, the risk is too high.”
Wang Xiao shook his head without thinking. He knew that the so-called “triangular attack” was an attack that locked the target in the middle of the killing range.
This method was indeed very useful when facing a single enemy. However, now that there were ten targets, the efficiency of attacking one by one was too slow.
Moreover, there would be a few seconds between every attack of the [Dwarf Artilleries]. If the operation was not good, it was very easy for the other party to take advantage of the time gap.
Afraid that Zhou Xiruo would think that he did not listen to her opinion, Wang Xiao explained briefly before starting to set up a new strategy. “Aim at the target and fire a cannonball first. If the target has the tendency to dodge, follow up with the second shot half a second apart.”
Zhou Xiruo thought for a moment and nodded. “What about the third shot?”
“Aim at the other targets. After the first shell leaves the chamber, immediately adjust the direction and cooperate with the third shot to advance. This way, we can lock onto two targets at the same time.”
As Wang Xiao spoke, his eyes continued to search the arena. Soon, he locked onto two [Skeleton Soldiers] that were close to each other.
The distance between the two [Skeleton Soldiers] was only three to four meters. If he chose the right spot for the cannonball, he might even be able to kill two birds with one stone! “Let’s test the waters with them first!”
“Good!”
Zhou Xiruo agreed and immediately raised her cannon to attack!
With a loud bang, the cannonball accurately smashed into the [Skeleton Soldier], and as expected, it chose to dodge to the side.
At this moment, the second shell followed closely behind. The [Skeleton Soldier] had just taken a step forward and did not have time to change its direction at all. It was instantly torn to pieces by the air waves of the two shells!
“Success!”
Zhou Xiruo cheered and immediately continued to move according to Wang Xiao’s arrangements.
As cannonballs continuously landed, the number of [Skeleton Soldiers] in the arena quickly decreased.
Just as there were two to three [Skeleton Soldiers] left, a [Skeleton Soldier] with a red flag suddenly ran happily into their vision…
