Chapter 158: Obligations of Allies
No one noticed it, I don't know when it started, on the periphery of the battle between the two sides, where a knight stood, his figure was so small that it was difficult for others to discover his existence, and the Terrans did not have the extra attention to find out, and Kakar, because on his periphery, there were 50,000 people in Elbi on guard, and there was no need to find out.
The goshawk circled, and finally flapped its wings and flew towards the ground, and in his direction was the lonely knight figure, the race that could have such falconry, in the whole of Middle-earth, there was only the centaur clan.
"Khanate~!"
The knight raised his right hand where the goshawk was parked, and shouted with all his strength, and his voice was so loud that his cry could be faintly heard throughout the battlefield, and the people turned their heads in confusion to see a lonely figure, and the terrifying tide that had joined the battlefield like the sea!
Centaur Clan, join the fight!
The wind of the battlefield blew the beggar coat, and he looked at the fierce battle at his feet, the battle intent in his eyes was particularly high, and behind him were the men and horses who were constantly walking up the high slopes, they were all armed: horses and spears, scimitars like the moon.
10,000 centaur knights lined up on the ground, and the slightly scattered lineup made them look like a sea of cavalry on the entire land, although there were only 10,000 people, but because of their own huge individuals, they created an momentum that was almost not weaker than that between the Terrans and Mordor.
"How is this possible? How could Elbi not have any news come from here?"
Kakar was stunned to see the enemy who suddenly appeared, and the Terrans were so demoralized that even Lelouch waved his right fist excitedly:
"Mankind's eternal best friend, the Centaur Clan is here!"
Beggar Yan looked at the stunned two sides, his eyes were full of pride, how many years, how many years have the centaur clan not received such a gaze, the once powerful centaurs, wherever they go, they will definitely receive a look of fear and awe, but with the defeat of the khanate, how many years have they only had white eyes, and nothing else?
Now, it's finally coming back!
Qi Yan turned to look at the warriors behind him, 10,000 centaur riders panted to face the battlefield, they were in order to support the battle of Fort Horn, it can almost be said that they were traveling all the way, and finally arrived at the battlefield at this time, everyone couldn't help but feel a little out of breath, Qi Yan looked at them, most of these centaur knights were prime-age centaurs, they included almost all the centaur men in their prime, at this time they were wearing armor, holding weapons, and looking at their leaders firmly.
Qi Yan raised his scimitar, and he said loudly:
"Today, we stand here as promised, not only for our covenant with the Terrans, but also for the revival of our Centaur Khanate. ”
Qiyan's words ushered in some restlessness in the crowd, and Kakar in the distance was hurriedly mobilizing the forces of various fronts to form a new line of defense, which gave the Terrans a chance to breathe, and Qiyan continued as if he didn't see it:
"They have been oppressed for a hundred years! They have rebelled! But we, the kingdom, have been in the kingdom for nearly a thousand years, and we have waited for a thousand years, and now we are starting to rebel!"
"However, this does not mean that we are weak, we wait, we accumulate, because we know that the moment we really rise up and fight, we will let Middle-earth know that the former king is back!"
The beggar began to run, and he kept slapping the knight's cavalry spear with his scimitar, and he shouted over and over again, making everyone's blood boil:
"Khanate!"
"Khanate!"
"Khanate!"
Those two simple words aroused the long-stirred blood in the hearts of the centaurs, and their breathing became heavier, and they looked at the people running over, and raised their weapons, bows, broadswords, and riding spears, and they were ready.
Qi Yan stood in the middle of the line, he picked up the banner of the people and horses on the side, held it high above his head, and pressed it down:
"For the khanate!"
"For revival!"
Beggar Yan rushed, and the terrifying cavalry tide behind him also rushed, they shouted these two words over and over again, the morale was extremely high, and the knight charge all over the mountains and fields was an unbearable fear for anyone who was going to face him, and the orc soldiers looked at the knight ocean rushing over in fear, their hands holding spears were constantly trembling, they might be able to rely on the spears to kill one or even two centaur knights, but the spear soldiers in front of them would definitely not survive
"Shoot them with arrows!"
The Mordor officer in charge of the command yelled in fear, he ordered his soldiers to release arrows to stop the charging centaur army, but the vast majority of the crossbowmen were in the middle at this time, they didn't have time to get to the flank and rear positions, and the few soldiers here were mostly pikemen, so when the few archers began to shoot, the sparse rain of arrows did no damage to the charging centaurs at all, and only a few unlucky ghosts were shot to the ground.
However, this obviously did not stop the enthusiasm of the men and horses from charging feverishly, and the beggar Yan rushed to the front, and the banner in his hand looked extraordinarily unusually unwavering under the full run.
And after withstanding the attack of the orc soldiers' arrow rain, the centaur nomadic rider counterattacked, the centaur horse archery, unparalleled in the world, when a large number of centaur riders pulled out the bow, the neat arrow Weng Ming, so that the battlefield seemed to suddenly appear a sound of insects flapping their wings, and then, is the terrifying scream of the arrow rain.
Dense rain of arrows fell from the sky, densely arranged orc pikemen became sparse in an instant under the attack of arrow rain attack, this scene also happened when Elby attacked the dwarf supreme royal city, this is also the strong place of the centaur army back then, the cavalry can not compare to the natural advantage of the men and horses, and the spear phalanx can not avoid the terrifying arrow rain under the cavalry, if it is not for their own side has enough long-range strength to suppress the opposite side, the defender is almost only pressed and beaten.
At this time, Qiyan reproduced such a situation.
The originally dense spearman phalanx was constantly harvested by the army of men and horses who deliberately controlled the rhythm at this time, and the pressure that was getting closer and closer made the orc gunners behind dare not fill it, this kind of consumable low-level gunner soldiers were almost all composed of half-orc soldiers, and their courage was slightly weaker, so it also gave the beggar an opportunity to take advantage of.
Finally, under the continuous waves of dense arrow rain, the gun forest in front of the centaur became sparse, no matter how the orc soldiers replenished, it was difficult to make up for it, and the vast majority of the heavy forces attacked Richard on the right flank, so there was almost no force to call on in the rear of the entire Kakar, and he could only watch Mordor rush in.
The sparse infantry couldn't stop the terrifying cavalry tide of 10,000 people at all, the centaurs were like an eraser, wiping away the long filth in front of them, and the hastily formed flank defense line, under the impact of the centaurs, collapsed in an instant, the centaur army did not hesitate at all, he rushed directly towards the entire Kakar's middle formation, as long as the middle phalanx was broken, then Mordor would be in a state of division and encirclement in an instant.
Where would Libert let go of such an opportunity, not to mention that the mid-formation opportunity concentrated the long-range strength of the entire Kakar, but also concentrated Kakar's strongest reserves, as long as the mid-formation was broken, the Terrans would have won half of the battle in this battle.
Libert directly launched the order to attack, and the Terran troops in the middle rushed towards the orc formation regardless of it, and at the forefront were the garrison soldiers, who held steel shields to block the oncoming attack, and behind them, the Terran coalition soldiers whose morale had been greatly boosted because of the arrival of reinforcements, they rushed to kill with a roar.
In an instant, the Mordor mid-formation that was attacked from both sides began to be in chaos, they were not timid, but they didn't know how to deal with it at this time, Kakar's heralds couldn't come at all, the centaurs with their absolute mobility ability, instantly cut off the connection between the command system and the mid-formation, and now there was no commanding mid-formation, thinking about turning around and counterattacking, and thinking about preparing to resist the Terran soldiers who rushed over, they didn't have a unified command, but they didn't know what to do.
The lineup lost its tight formation for a moment, became fluffy, and then, was squeezed on both sides.
The frontal Terran attack did not make the Mordor orc soldiers feel any special pressure, but the collision of the 10,000 knights behind them also made them feel the powerlessness of the Terran right flank in the face of the onslaught of heavy trolls.
They want to go up, but it's too late, the back want to resist in a group, but often a little denser personnel, they will be shot away by the rain of arrows, they can only respond to the dense attack in a loose formation, they may have better personal combat strength and equipment than the Terran peasants, but they are not as close as the Terran peasants, and they don't think that the 'great shaman' is behind them to inspire the war, so their defeat is doomed.
You can't imagine the image of 10,000 cavalry rushing towards you, and Mordor can't imagine that this kind of knight can't be created by no amount of wolf cavalry, how can the soft wolf legs and the hard hooves of the horses trample on the ground with the same sound and shock?
In the middle of the battle, defeated!
The strong orcs fought in groups, the half-orcs fled in all directions, and they were defeated in just over ten minutes, and they had no other way but to retreat.
This brief change in battle stunned everyone present, Kakar looked at the scene in front of him in distraction, under the ups and downs, Kakar's heart changed dramatically, he hated!
"Ten thousand cavalry, how come Elby, ten thousand cavalrymen, didn't find out?
Kakar closed his eyes unwillingly, his mind kept replaying his struggle for the leadership of the Third Legion at the meeting, encouraging the clan to send his children to join the army, and even taking them out of the black land with a high temperament, but now, in the blink of an eye, it seemed to be empty, 150,000 children of his own clan, this battle was completely over.
"No! I can't let them die, I'm going to retreat, I'm going to retreat!"
Kaka opened his eyes suddenly, he seemed to have finally figured out something, he decided to withdraw the army, and evacuated the 40,000 people of his clan among the 140,000 people, he didn't care about his glory anymore, and he didn't even care that he seemed to be able to continue to be a great shaman, he only knew that if his clan children died, then at least thirty or forty years would be unable to breathe, half-orcs and strong orcs were not as good as goblin goblins.
"Pass my orders and let them"
"Kakar, Lord Karui told you to keep attacking!"
Elby appeared again, but Kakar paused as if he hadn't heard Elby's words, and continued:
"Let them"
"Master Karui sent you a hundred mammoths!"
Kakar was finally stunned, he looked at Elby in disbelief, as the technology that Mordor ordered, the mammoth's breeding technology was extremely secretive, and it was by virtue of the mammoth that the Mammoth strengthened the absolute ruling authority of the Demon Tower over the Orc clan in the Black Land, generally speaking, Mordor would never give the mammoth to the clans for use unless it was absolutely necessary.
But now, Karui gave!
Kakar swallowed, and finally spoke:
"Let them keep attacking!"
"I still have a chance, as long as I use these hundred mammoths well, I still have a chance!"
Kakar cheered himself up one by one, and finally stood up:
"Where are the mammoths? I'll charge them myself!"
Rushing and killing, constantly rushing and killing, with the addition of centaurs, the rout of the middle formation, the remaining two wings of the third legion soldiers began to retreat uncontrollably, they were scattered by the centaurs on the way back, and finally uncontrollably lost the rigor of the lineup, and without the filling and cover of the orc soldiers, the pressure of the trolls on the right wing of the human race on the left wing of Mordor was instantly reduced, and the elite knights and warriors could finally start to encircle and suppress from the periphery, and slowly kill the remaining enemies on the right flank.
The morale of the Terrans was high, the sudden victory seemed to be in sight, and the terrifying combat power of the centaurs seemed to be confirmed again and again at this moment, but at this moment, the earth was shaken!
Earthquakes, not tremors!
The trembling under the tide of 10,000 horsemen was nothing under the vibration under the eyes, and the Terran and Centaur coalition looked in shock in the direction where the vibration came, and their pupils instantly dilated.
A hundred huge war mammoths swept in a long line, each as huge as a hill, giving endless pressure to everyone, and on top of the huge body was a wooden castle that was also not much smaller, where dense orc soldiers were pointing at them with bows and arrows.
Lelouch looked at this scene, putting aside everything else, he finally had the feeling of being out of the modern age of the earth, this is no longer a different world with only races and eras, but a real, fantasy continent!
"How can such a shocking scene be created by those special effects?"
