Two-volume - 9 cavalry raid
Soon, within a few days, the second step began.
Soldiers of the Auxiliary Regiment and the Provincial Defence Regiment will participate in the operation.
Participating in this operation were three sword-throwing auxiliary infantry phalanxes, two short spear auxiliary infantry phalanxes, three sword-throwing provincial defense infantry phalanxes, five short spear provincial defense infantry phalanxes, and several lancer cavalry phalanxes.
The cavalry and infantry were now hiding in the woods on the edge of the local camp.
Judging from the current situation of the other party, it seems that they have not yet discovered the ambush in the woods.
In the ranks of the woods, the phalanx of lancers was at the front of the line, and the phalanx of infantry was at the rear.
The lancers are ready to charge, and the next step is to charge at the enemy from the flank.
"Everyone, listen to me. The captain of the lancers said confidently to the cavalry beside him.
The cavalry on the side immediately straightened up and wanted to carry their backs.
Even the mounts of these cavalrymen seemed to be able to understand human speech, and their ears pricked up.
"Alright!
The captain of the lancers gave an order.
The lancer on the side lightly slapped his mount with his legs.
Then the cavalry phalanx began to slowly advance - it was still a little early to speed forward, to save the horse's physical strength and explosiveness for the next charge at closer range.
The cavalry was on the grass higher than a man, advancing unhurriedly in the direction of the opposing camp.
The opposing camp remained quiet - it looked like the battle was going to be very simple.
"Guys, judging from the current situation, with our cavalry, we can handle this battle!" said the captain of the lancers, confidently to his teammates on the side.
"They don't look defenseless!We, the assault cavalry, are best suited to deal with such an unprepared enemy!" said the lancer on the side, also in a relaxed tone.
These cavalry phalanxes continued to advance in the grass at the same speed as before.
"What's going on?" said a lancer next to the captain of the lancers, who seemed to notice something unusual.
"What's wrong?" asked the Lancer Captain, somewhat puzzled.
"Nothing...... It's just ......," the lancer said, pausing slightly, "they're too unalert, aren't they?"
"Maybe it's really ......," the spear captain was halfway through his words when a sound came from afar!
The opposing sentries spotted their cavalry and began to attack in this direction.
"Just this ?...... attack," said one of the lancers with some disdain.
The sentinel's attack just now did not hit any of its own cavalry.
"All right, guys, start ......" Before the Lancer Captain could finish speaking, suddenly there was another noise not far away—unlike the previous one, this time it was a very neat sound!
Suddenly, the screams of the soldiers and the neighing of the horses were mixed together!
The lancers in the first row, along with the captain of the lancers, fell to the ground along with their mounts in the midst of the attack.
It turned out that the soldiers on the other side were all half-squatting in the grass just now!
The lancers they were attacked, they were tricked!
The enemy has long spotted them and is ready for an ambush!
"Don't retreat, charge quickly!" shouted the cavalry captain of the lancer phalanx on the side, "Rush forward and stop the attack!"
The horn of the charge sounded.
The horses began to accelerate, and the sound of horses' hooves around them began to become denser and louder!
However, the opponent's attack is far from over!
