Genius Archer’s Streaming Season 3 Episode 206
68. Monster Battle (3)
From the beginning, Sarang didn’t think she could win this map with just the Rush of Age 2.
The shooting skills he showed while climbing up the ladder and after receiving the command were truly outstanding, so the battle variables were resolved in his favor.
The only area where the Joseon army could operate was ‘on the walls’.
No matter how badly I behaved here, the game was not over.
It’s the same as modern warfare. No matter how much the air force destroys an area, ground forces must be involved to truly occupy and occupy that land.
However, the ancient castle wall map was a vicious map where you never knew what might happen if the ground forces pushed in at the beginning.
Uphill roads, narrow entrances, high castle walls, etc. It is full of things that cannot be overcome with 2nd era technology.
Just as Woody was able to withstand an army nearly five times larger on the steps above the castle wall, Persia was able to do the same on the ground.
Of course, since the Joseon army was on top of the castle wall, at least one of all the obstacles in front was on Joseon’s side, but that alone did not mean that they could break through to the main camp.
Persia’s turtling know-how is not that easy.
Moreover, this is the third Fast Archer Rush.
The enemy commander, Elifer, is already relaxed about blocking the early rush.
If you had tried to force it by adding ground forces and ending it in the 2nd era, the chances were low.
So love prepared another move.
She designed the Fourth Age.
I felt something from the last game. If we try to end the match against Persia without seeing the elephant, there is not much room for victory.
Due to the special nature of its civilization, Persia is overwhelmingly efficient in terms of food, gold, and mineral resources.
This feels different from the Franks, who simply mined gold quickly, or the Romans, who had easy financial management.
It just doesn’t cost much money.
Because there is no upgrade cost.
So, as the game progressed towards the end, it became more advantageous to be able to stay in one area for a long time.
There is only so much money to be spent without quickly depleting local resources.
Here comes the reason why Persian turtling is so powerful.
This is because no matter how many defense towers are invested in one area, there will be surplus business.
Because we will be using that area for a very long time.
And since there is no place to put money in the future.
So, despite such strong pressure in the 2nd era, Persia withstood and even created a multiplayer.
Even if you suffer damage to resources, you survive because you don’t have much money to spend.
This is the point at which Persia spends a lot of money.
‘elephant.’
That was the elephant.
Love paid attention to this point.
‘In the end, you have to kill the elephant to kill Persia.’
If all of Persia’s saved resources were invested in elephants, if the elephants were captured, Persia would collapse.
‘If you try to kill him before then, you will only lose money.’
Before the elephants appeared, Persia did not fall easily.
Even if you lose money, you still have money.
Although it may seem like they are fighting with the same number of troops, in reality, in terms of money, Persia is fighting with about half that number of troops.
Even if Joseon wins the battle, it continues to lose money.
The scale was tilted to begin with.
The moment when the balance is balanced.
That’s the moment the elephant comes out.
Phuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuut
it is a paradoxical thing.
Perhaps they are pouring everything into making the elephant appear.
In other words, it pushes them to the cliff.
‘done. I’m here.’
So love was rather timing when they launched the elephant.
The timing when the elephants tear down the walls that protected them.
Kugugugugung…!
Persia could not withstand the Joseon archers on top of the castle wall and eventually chose to destroy it.
From a third party’s perspective, this may have seemed like an impulsive and unexpected move by Persia.
From the perspective of love, this was a thoroughly calculated area.
The reason they defended the wall to the end in the first place was so that Persia could destroy the wall with their own hands.
It was made so that it could not be removed without breaking it.
And when the walls are broken….
[Mountain assault troops]
Boom!
These numerous cavalrymen, placed around the center of the map and waiting for orders, come forward.
The reason why all the troops that should have been recruited to the battlefield were made into cavalry.
[Occupation]
To occupy Persia at once.
Every single one of the tall, thick ancient walls has disappeared.
These numerous assault troops could now enter from any direction.
Sreung!
The breadwinner in the lead pulled out the commander’s sword and shouted.
“Turn it around!!!”
* * *
The 4th era.
Kinggyul’s eyes widened.
‘How fast is the replacement order?’
In the midst of such an extreme battle, we can’t believe we’re moving into the 4th era a few steps faster.
It was a lot of multitasking.
But what really surprised him was something else.
A mounted assault force gathered near the Joseon headquarters.
They started running as soon as the castle wall collapsed.
‘I can’t believe I was drawing a picture like this.’
I learned exactly why Joseon did not send reinforcements and why it did not stay on the walls until the end, even if it meant killing the archers.
‘I had the castle walls destroyed.’
Joseon destroyed all of the enemy’s walls using elephants without any siege weapons.
From the early rush to the hill tank strategy, everything is designed to destroy the castle walls at minimal cost.
‘Is this a rookie?’
In practice. It is also the round of 16 of the national competition. Even if you lose this game, you have to go home.
Is it really a rookie who can build up like this in such a situation?
‘Or is he just God?’
Stinging…
A strange tremor appeared around his eyes again.
‘what. Come on.’
Kinggyul thought he was absorbed in nationalistic sentiments and grabbed the microphone again.
“This was it!? “Joseon has gathered all its troops for this!!”
“yes!? But why now!”
“Now the walls have collapsed!!!”
“…Huh?! Is that so!?”
– ㄷㄷ
–
Wow
– I’m crazy
– Wow – That’s right ㅁㅊ
–
Wow – LOL –
Exclamations came up one after another in the chat window.
It had to be that way.
The same things that Joseon has been doing since the 2nd era are also present in their minds.
The moment when Persia destroys the walls of the city with his own elephants.
The moment you spent your own money destroying your own walls.
Joseon’s cavalry is ready.
I couldn’t help but shiver at this moment when all the flows were connected as one.
I couldn’t help but look forward to it.
“Waaaaaaaa!!”
“Let’s go!”
Almost 80% of the audience was standing up.
Some people put their hands together and prayed, while others raised their hands up and rode the waves.
Coo coo coo coo…!
A cavalry assault force of about 80 people running while raising dust.
They quickly approached 9 o’clock as they crossed the entire map.
“Mobility! Joseon strikes quickly and falls quickly! Spend less money! This is Choi Soon-shin’s Joseon! Siege weapons!? That’s slow! If you use it incorrectly, it’s a hollow toilet! “I don’t use it!”
“I think this is correct, at least in the Persian War!?”
-Kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk of
– A toilet that drains money ㄷㄷ
– Who are you talking to?
-Choi Soon-shin’s contact
-The siege weapon looks like a Reaver hahahaha
“Cavalry now! Enter this! Elephants are slow! Because it’s slow! “I can’t stop this one by one!!”
“Persian troops now! Fighting with Joseon near the castle walls! “They are spread out here and there and there is no formation at all!”
In Persia, the battle has just ended.
Even though the number of troops is roughly similar, they are not properly prepared to fight.
Moreover, they had no idea that Joseon would come running with cavalry.
It was Joseon’s perfect strategy.
But—
“Ah. however!”
Sometimes luck plays a role in even the perfect strategy.
Persia experiences some luck here.
First luck.
[Elephant movement speed research – completed]
Just in time, the elephant’s movement speed has increased.
“Ah… did you get a quick job with the elephant!?”
“Like this….”
Second luck.
“Two additional elephants are being deployed now! Are you going to run into this!?”
Two elephants and about 10 troops riding on them were taken without thinking to go to the main camp.
The routes of these and the Joseon cavalry overlapped.
“If it wasn’t for a quick job, I actually wouldn’t have encountered it!!”
As the elephant’s movement speed became closer to that of a basic horse, the probability of encountering them increased sharply.
“Uh oh…!”
In the end, it was exposed to Persia’s sight.
“ah! all right! Did you notice Persia!?”
[Move at full speed]
Elifer has already modified the elephant’s movement command.
Kwagwagwagwagwang!
Elephants running with tremendous force.
“Ahhh! See you in the middle of the week!?”
“This is Joseon! Avoid it! Must be avoided!”
“The cavalry is very inefficient when it encounters elephants! It even got a quick upgrade!! “Everyone falls down and makes a mess!?”
Elephants were basically strong against other vehicles.
If pushed by its overwhelming size and strength, small vehicles quickly become helpless.
“The location for the elephant is really nice!?”
Two elephants stab the cavalry’s waist with precision.
Kwaaang──
Three or four people are blown away by the ivory horn, and four or more people are knocked around by the kicks.
Even if not all of them died, they all fell out of the battle.
“Aaaah! Shipbuilding! It’s unfair! It’s unfair!!!”
-ㅁㅊ It’s a scam.
-Ah…
-Han’s emotions ㄷㄷ
-Is that Kinggyul that was just riding on a horse?
-Ssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss
.
_
Dust rose high due to the powerful collision.
“ah. Shipbuilding! The flow of cavalry has stopped now! Still, wouldn’t it be better for the rest to run away!? You’re not dealing with an elephant! “We have to infiltrate the main base!”
Even though my back is broken, I can run with my head.
That could have been true originally.
However, the Joseon cavalry turned its head and looked at the elephant.
“Huh!? Are you fighting!?”
Yes.
Joseon had no intention of avoiding elephants in the first place, right?
Perhaps it wasn’t Persia’s luck that she discovered them.
Sreung!
Bread and Coffee pull out their swords at the same time.
It was Joseon’s luck.
“ah! There is a corner in Joseon that believes in something! there is! A cavalryman is running down there right now?! That…”
“Ahh?!”
* * *
Phew.
Looking at the huge gray monster on the sand-colored plain, Bread remembered that time.
“Elephants as cavalry?”
It was when I was practicing the Persian battle with Cookie.
Cookie started practicing, saying he could catch an elephant even with a mounted assault force.
Of course, the opponent was not an elephant controlled by the Persian player, but just an artificial intelligence for practice purposes.
“okay. If you get the route right… “You can inflict multiple times of damage in an instant with your sword by going near or between the legs.”
This means charging while cutting the legs of a running elephant.
For a cavalryman, galloping in the opposite direction of a running elephant is no different from a suicide attempt.
“This is too dangerous.”
The bread certainly answered that way.
「In practice….」
Sreung!
But now she has drawn her sword.
The command was given to
[cut along the path] .
Can not help it.
“Let’s go!”
“Waaaa!”
Her platoon rode behind, while Coffee’s platoon headed in the other direction.
It was as if the two platoons were split in half with the elephant between them.
Shut up! Shut up!
‘I need to draw a route…’
The elephant and the cavalry are facing each other and running towards each other.
The distance is narrowing incredibly quickly.
In this situation, the assistant commander must draw a route. So as not to confuse other soldiers. Avoid bumping into each other.
But it couldn’t be easy.
No, it was impossible.
The bread’s hands move back and forth in the air as if it is anxious.
I have no idea where to draw it or how to draw it.
It was then.
Tsusssssssss…!
Rays of light fell and a path was drawn.
‘Between your legs!’
Cut half of the bread slices between the legs and the rest around the outside.
“Over there!?”
“This…”
The soldiers in the back assigned between the legs are embarrassed.
“Just go!”
She pulled out one more sword besides the commander’s sword.
And then I looked to the right for a moment.
Coffee and eyes met.
He nodded.
Just keep going.
Bread looked straight ahead again.
Puuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu–
“!”
The sound of the swirling wind in my ears.
Whoa!!
The thick legs of an elephant.
It felt like a huge concrete pillar blowing in a typhoon.
However, the cavalry ran through them and swung their swords.
“continue! “Run!”
I cut down the typhoon.
Sigh!
One soldier ran the wrong way and was hit by an elephant’s leg and was blown away, while another soldier survived.
Sigh!
Sigh!
They all swung their swords like crazy.
Sikbang swung his sword on both sides and shouted.
“Keep running! Don’t stop—”
Haha!
Her sword danced with red blood.
‘uh?’
But my vision suddenly turned dark.
Cooung.
“─Huh!?”
The sky and the earth turn upside down, and a horse stands upside down in the distance and trots.
Those were his own words.
Udangtang.
[Health 15%]
Stamina drained out as I rolled around on the dirt floor.
Fortunately, he didn’t die.
‘You have to wake up.’
She quickly raises her upper body.
It was then.
Puuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu
The elephant’s tusks rose upward like a white tower.
And slowly tilted.
“Fell down…?”
The elephant was falling. The huge shadow gradually narrowed in on the bread.
‘The elephant… I killed it, though.’
We caught the elephant, but she felt like she was going to die. There was no time to escape.
Even in this brief moment, Bbang couldn’t help but blame himself.
The assistant commander’s life was not just one life.
‘It’s a loss if you do this.’
Coo!
A heavy roar rang out.
“!?”
Apparently the elephant fell.
But he was fine.
Why?
Puuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!
It’s another elephant.
Another elephant’s tusks supported its falling body.
‘what…?’
She looks up.
The man on the elephant was not a Persian soldier.
It was the Joseon army.
‘almond?’
It was almond.
