Chapter 1711: Chapter 836: Desecration Plan (Part 3)

The main thing they need to enhance is the coordination between squads.

Only with good coordination can they be considered a legion, otherwise, they’re just a pile of loose stones.

When they have a crushing advantage, they can sweep through everything.

But once things are evenly matched, they easily suffer setbacks.

Amidst the drumbeats resounding through the sky.

This seven-thousand-strong Laiserman Berserker Legion charged out once again.

Two kilometers away, the Great Valley Chariot Legion had already set up in a defensive formation, ready.

The dream combat simulation was starting again. Thɪs chapter is updated by novel[f]ire.net

After eight rounds of simulation over three nights, both sides were quite clear about the situation, but the fighting spirit was only higher, not waning, because both sides were determined not to lose, especially after each had showcased their unique traits. Since this was the last battle of the night, they were going all out.

This dream combat simulation allows for a maximum of three sessions each night, any more, and the soldiers’ spirits couldn’t bear the load.

Even so, after three consecutive days, each side had suffered over a thousand casualties—not deaths, but experiencing repeated deaths in the True Dream Realm has seriously impacted their souls and spirits, leaving psychological shadows being the least of their worries; the main issue is the weakening of the soul.

They should not participate in such simulations again in the short term and should wait until they have healed sufficiently for reassessment.

However, Gaven and his team have no intention of calling off the dream combat simulation.

Because it has already shown its powerful role.

Compared to the massive deaths that would occur in real combat, what’s a little mental weakening?

After all, with Healing Divine Arts as a fallback, as long as they don’t have special constitutions, it generally won’t develop into mental illness.

The Laiserman Berserker Legion’s overall formation still looked a bit loose, but by the time they were a kilometer away from the War Chariot Legion, they began to show something different from before.

They split like a rushing flood, charging at a distance of five to six hundred meters from the War Chariot Legion. At this distance, the maximum effective range of the cart crossbows loses much of its accuracy and power, so the War Chariot Legion is not likely to attack at this distance.

In just a few minutes, they formed a large circular encirclement around the War Chariot Legion.

The Laiserman Berserker Legion’s approach surprised the War Chariot Legion for a moment, but soon the commanders realized what was happening, loudly ordering: “This time, the barbarians are smart, planning to use encirclement tactics. They will certainly attack from all sides simultaneously. Adjust the direction of the cart crossbows’ aim according to the central command vehicle, covering the enemies on the outside while ensuring fire coverage, and avoid becoming obstacles behind the cart crossbows.”

Eight rounds of dream combat simulation were enough to showcase personal abilities to the fullest extent, and Gaven promoted middle and higher-level commanders on the spot.

This is real combat; whether someone is brave, flexible in applying strategies and tactics, and decisive is obvious and can’t be faked.

Again, the battle drums roared fiercely, and the Laiserman Berserkers launched another attack in the form of the Hunting War Team. This time, they didn’t all charge in recklessly.

Instead, from various directions, a Hunting War Team would suddenly charge out and stop abruptly a certain distance from the War Chariot Legion, slowly retreating.

It was just like a wolf pack testing prey.

They were luring the War Chariot Legion to fire their crossbow arrows, depleting their stock of arrows, while also looking for dead angles in the cart crossbows, whose dense vehicle arrangement created obstacles for themselves.

The War Chariot Legion’s combat experience and psychological quality have greatly improved, and they won’t easily fall for such tactics or change their defensive direction with the crossbows because that would only disrupt their formation.

Those Fearless Warriors at the forefront were indeed shirtless, but in truth, their defensive capabilities were not weak at all. Besides the barbarians’ damage reduction ability, they were protected by the Stone Skin Spell and Arrow Protection cast by the Laiserman Witch on them.

Unless multiple crossbow arrows from the carts are aimed point-blank at them, it’s hard to cause substantial damage.

Once all the Fang Battle Squads were in position, the Laiserman Berserker Legion launched a main assault on the four corners of the hamburger car formation of the War Chariot Legion, where the mutual obstruction of the cart crossbows was most severe, causing many shooting angles to be compromised.

Soon, under the leadership of the Fearless Warriors, they reached beneath the first row of the War Chariot Legion. However, this time, they didn’t rush in, which would have trapped them amid enemies on all sides.

Now, those tall war chariots became their shelter, blocking the cart crossbows behind them.

Quickly, the gathered Fang Battle Squads formed a scene of locally outnumbered opposition, overturning tower war chariots one by one. Without the protection of chariots, the War Chariot soldiers were no match for the Laiserman Berserkers.

Using the same method, by the time the entire War Chariot Legion was overturned and eliminated, the Laiserman Berserker Legion had lost less than a third of its number.

“The power of strategic tactics is indeed extraordinary. Simply changing the method of attack significantly reduced casualties, this is our failure, and we should further develop our legion’s potential in this area.” The Sunrise Witch said joyfully, full of praise.

This witch exuded a sense of solidity and was most adept at using earth spells.

This is evident from her codename, derived from the Sunrise Mountain Range, the highest peak in the Laiserman Kingdom, showing her profound skills in this field.

She is most enthusiastic about dream training, and the implementation of strategy and tactics is very much her concern, as many of her abilities relate to berserker combat.

“This is related to your Laiserman Berserkers’ formidable combat power. Most enemies are overwhelmed by your berserk charge as soon as they engage, so why need complex strategies and tactics?

Moreover, once berserkers enter the Berserk State, many intricate tactical cooperations can no longer be used, relying instead on the berserkers’ inherent formidable combat power.”

Gaven was not merely flattering; he pointed out the strengths and weaknesses of the Laiserman Berserkers sharply. “Therefore, your strategies and tactics should focus on creating situations where they can outnumber opponents locally, thereby increasing their isolated battle victory rates, ensuring they will prevail.”

“Thank you, Commander, for your advice. I will pay more attention to this aspect in the future.” The Sunrise Witch also assisted Gaven in analyzing, “Your War Chariot Legion has very obvious strengths and weaknesses: more defense, less offense. Once their details are known, they’re easily targeted.”

“I know,” Gaven nodded and said, “But this type of legion relies heavily on war chariots, mainly limited by the capabilities of the chariots. If the chariots were updated, their combat methods would naturally change.

In fact, this War Chariot Legion is primarily prepared for defense. Individually, they indeed have clear disadvantages, but if they are placed upfront, and your Laiserman Berserker Legion follows behind, what kind of combat power would they erupt with?”

“That would be a perfect complement to their strengths and weaknesses.” The Sunrise Witch sincerely praised, “The Commander had already considered this; I worried too much.”
