Chapter 505: Lure Attack
"Order, prepare for a second charge. ”
In the tent of the southern army commander, old Tywin waved his arms vigorously, "Seize the opportunity, strive to defeat the enemy's advance this time, and then let the cavalry encircle from both flanks!"
"Yes!"
The generals ordered them to go down, and only the Lannister father and son were left in the tent.
"Jaime, do you think this charge will be able to defeat the Northern Coalition once and for all?" Tywin asked with a smile, the latter shaking his head slightly with a serious expression, "Ivy's guy isn't that easy to defeat, and he still hasn't come up with the same weapon he used to defend against our attacks. ”
Tywin laughed, patted his son on the shoulder, and said, "Jaime, you have too many concerns. We can actually develop that kind of weapon, but it can only be used to attack and defend cities. And on this plain, there is little use. ”
Indeed, the catapult is not effective on the plains, after all, the enemy will not stand there and let you smash it, and people will charge directly! When the time comes, the two soldiers will be entangled together, and the catapult will be completely abandoned.
So you can only smash the back row, but the effect is not very good after all, and it is not even as effective as the Lannister's giant crossbow, at least pull out a row, which can instantly crush the enemy's forwards.
It's just that Tywin doesn't use it this way in this battle at the moment, on the one hand, this thing is not easy to make, and the few that he originally owned were smashed by Jaime by a catapult during the attack on Harrenhal last time.
On the other hand, Tywin also has absolute self-confidence, in the plains battle, he is the king of galloping, and Ivey is far worse than him, in his opinion it is completely worthless, easy to defeat.
In fact, almost all the generals thought so, thinking that Ivey was crazy to toss this Northern Coalition Army!
If he is honestly nested in Harrenhal, then the Iron Throne has nothing to do with him in the short term, and he can be a "king" at ease. But what he didn't expect was that he didn't stay well, and he actually launched an alliance to go south to capture King's Landing!
But come to think of it, but old Tywin didn't take it lightly. He knew that his opponent was a treacherous and cunning boy who could not be underestimated. Therefore, the tactics he chooses are also steady and steady, not giving the opponent even the slightest chance.
This can also be regarded as Ivey's special treatment, if it were someone else, maybe Tywin would not be so cautious, and directly the infantry cavalry would pass over, crushing the opponent to death with absolute superiority!
"He was too anxious. Old Tywin sighed, a hint of regret flashing across his eyes, "If he keeps in Harrenhal and unites the north at the same time, I'm afraid that in two years' time, we won't be able to do anything about them." ”
Jaime was also silent when he heard this, it is true that the riverland is no worse than the south, the land is fertile and the population is vigorous, if Ive, who occupies this place, develops well for two years, then it will be really difficult for the south to regain it.
But now it's different, now Ivey is raising the Northern Alliance to fight, as long as it is defeated, the army can directly advance to the north, recapture cities without effort, and the Civil War can be over.
At this time, in the forward, Li Lingyi had already put on his armor and determined his position, that is, the forward army, which was almost the most important position, and it was also the most dangerous position.
And Ian and Robb persuaded a few more times, and when they saw that Li Lingyi insisted on standing on the front line, they gave up, and at the same time, they also had a slight idea in their hearts, that is, once the next charge failed, as soon as something happened to Li Ling, then the coalition army was estimated to be self-defeating.
However, it is worth mentioning that Rams did not persuade him, which also made Li Lingyi notice, although this does not directly represent anything, but at least it can show that this kid does not care much about his safety.
It's not that Li Lingyi asks everyone to care about him, in fact, Robb and Ian don't care about him, but they are afraid that if he dies, the army will also be defeated, so that they themselves are in danger.
But Rams's attitude is different, and this also strengthens Li Lingyi's idea, that is, this little peel, the skin is definitely doing something.
In the absence of evidence, Li Lingyi cannot openly make trouble, and for the time being, he can only respond to all changes with the same, and the first thing to do now is to raise the morale of the Northern Coalition Army in the next hedging.
By this time, the opposing Southern Army had slowly pressed, apparently preparing for a second charge. So Li Lingyi also waved his hand and asked everyone to move forward with him.
I have to say that it is indeed more convenient to command myself standing in the forward, and all the soldiers in the front row use him as a benchmark to advance or retreat, remaining on the same level.
And when the distance between the two sides was less than fifty meters, the Southern Coalition Army also saw Li Lingyi at the front, and they all showed shocked looks, and this look turned into greed and murder in the next moment!
If Li Lingyi can be killed, the credit will be unimaginable!
Now the Iron Throne has offered a high price of 300,000 gold dragons for Li Lingyi's head! Moreover, if the successful person wants to, his official position can be directly promoted by many levels, and he has almost struggled for fifty years.
Although they don't understand why Li Lingyi, as the commander of the coalition forces, will personally take the forward position, it doesn't matter, the most important thing is to grab his head!
Thinking like this, the southern soldiers had red eyes, and they didn't even listen to the commander's orders, and rushed directly towards Li Lingyi!
Good!
Li Ling was also quite happy when he saw everyone rushing towards him, because in this way, the perfect formation originally arranged by Tywin was all in chaos, which meant that the opportunity for the Northern Alliance Army had come!
"Everyone keep in formation!" Li Ling raised his sword and shouted, "Kill!"
"Kill !!"
The Northern Coalition pounced like a wolf, and Li Lingyi naturally rushed to the forefront, bending his upper body, and using a cross-sword technique with both hands, this was still the killing technique he had learned by himself in the giant world.
Puff puff puff——!
The hand-to-hand combat was flattered, and blood was splattered.
Li Ling's weapons and two were superb, and the steel armor and iron helmet were no different from tofu to his sword blade, and they were easily pierced and scratched, so the flesh wrapped in it was also fragmented, and there was no one enemy.
"Kill Ive!!"
The southern soldiers were all red-eyed, and they didn't even care about the other northern soldiers, they all rushed to Li Lingyi's side one by one, squeezing in and slashing them, hoping that they were the ones who made great achievements and ascended to the sky in one step.
But they didn't realize that the confusion of the individual would lead to the collapse of the group, and the entire Southern Army forward was already in chaos under the lure of Li Lingyi!
