Chapter 114: The Norsland Cavalry
Alonso's own losses were not small, and many Imperial soldiers fell on their way. Because he did not carry the magic crystal cannon, all the battles were fought by Alonso with real swords and guns.
"Your Excellency!" the lieutenant in charge of leading the team, riding a tall horse, grabbed the reins beside Alonso and reported loudly: "The magic crystal artillery has arrived!"
"Very well, take a break, fight to the death with the enemy!" Alonso knew that he had no patience to go any further, and that he had to end the fight immediately.
As for the damned Seru Khan, he was in no mood to bother anymore. Even if the other party escapes this time, he will settle the account with this Seru Khan in the future!
Alonso finally waited for his main magic crystal cannon unit. He personally supervised the magic crystal artillery unit to set up positions at the commanding heights, and soon thirty guns were lined up on the perimeter, ready to open fire.
"Let them see, what is the real war!" Alonso sat on his horse, out of range of his bow and arrows, and watched Kurut's camp in the distance.
As his order was relayed, the distant cannon let out one dull loud bang after another.
"Boom!" "Boom!" As if the earth was shaking, one magic blast after another flew towards the distant target in a dull thunderous sound, blooming with demonic flowers in Kurut's camp.
The rubble spread with the shock wave of the explosion, the billowing smoke filled everywhere, and the ground trembled under the sound of cannons.
Alonso squinted as the Kurut soldiers fled, some of them running away.
"It seems that the other party's courage is nothing more than that. Alonso pressed the long sword at his waist and gave a not-so-high rating. He clamped his legs between the horse's belly and slowly marched forward with his troops.
"The whole army is pressing! I will personally supervise the battle! If you don't succeed, you will become a benevolent!" Riding on his horse, Seru Khan gritted his teeth and gave the order to counterattack.
He saw with his own eyes that half of a soldier's head had been blown off, and his ears were buzzing with the sound of the loud explosion. He couldn't hear the cries around him, which annoyed him.
A muffled trumpet sound of "Woo ......" was sounded, and all the Kurut steppe cavalry began to charge Alonso's army.
Then the Delman Empire's magic crystal artillery began to counterattack, and the roar completely suppressed the cavalry charge. The situation was basically one-sided without suspense, and soon the leading cavalry was wiped out under the enemy's shells.
"That damn Imperial Commander! If I can catch him, I'll break him to pieces!" "Seru Khan, who had long known that he couldn't defeat the enemy, clenched his fists and cursed someone in the opposing formation.
"Boom!" a cannonball exploded among the soldiers, sending the armored Kurut soldiers into the air. A gap appeared in the formation, and all the soldiers were overwhelmed by this asymmetrical battle.
They are not afraid of countless arrows coming at them, and they are not even afraid of being surrounded by enemies ten times as much. But now they were at least a delhi away from the enemy, and they were so badly beaten by the shells that they began to fear.
Watching others fight and trying it yourself are completely different things. Even if you have seen the enemy's magic crystal cannon, but when it is your turn to face the artillery fire, things will be completely different.
"Keep going!" Seeing that another soldier began to disorganize, Seru Khan drew his saber and loudly urged his troops to continue the attack: "For Kurut! For the city of Larma!
"Long live the Khan of Seru!" the Khan's pro-army roared, braving the artillery fire, and the 20,000 elite iron horsemen of the Kurut continued to charge towards the enemy, stepping over the corpses of their comrades and rushing towards the increasingly dense military formation of the Delman Empire.
As in the previous battle on the border, facing more than thirty magic crystal cannons and ten more than the last time, these Kurut soldiers seemed to be slaughtered, with empty losses but almost no damage to the enemy. They were blown to pieces by a magic blaster at a great distance, and they died in vain without even seeing the appearance of their enemies.
"If this consumption continues, the Khan of Seru will die sooner or later, and there is no need for us to come from afar. Pulling the reins of the Norslan horse, Anna, Gravel's henchman who rushed from the Norslan Kingdom after receiving a letter from the Khan of Seru asking for help, said lightly to the officers around her.
She buttoned up her visor, a heavy armor that shone faintly with a faint glow. These armors are magically blessed, making them very expensive armor.
"Whoa!" Behind him, all the Norsland cavalry buttoned up their face armor, and the white armor matched the armor of the Norslan body so well that it looked like a perfect work of art.
The cavalry spears of these cavalrymen were pointed at the sky like a forest. As everyone buttoned up their visors, Anna clamped the horse's ribs between her legs, and the Norslan horse under his crotch began to slowly stride forward.
All the horses behind him began to stride forward, and the muffled sound of the horses' hooves hitting the ground even overshadowed the war drums, and the "bang" was like the beginning of a piece of music, which was breathtaking.
"The cavalry of the Kingdom of Norsland has been dispatched, and the reinforcements have arrived!" an officer stopped beside the already anxious Seru Khan with the reins, and excitedly reported what he had just confirmed: "They have bypassed our left flank!
"Saved!" Seru Khan, who felt the sweat dripping from his forehead, let out a breath and shook his body, almost falling off his horse due to collapse, but when he stabilized his body and broke free from the ecstasy, he shouted hysterically: "Keep attacking! Keep attacking! We are saved! What are you waiting for! Keep attacking!"
With his shouting, everyone saw those war horses appear on the battlefield, and everyone saw the white armor that was somewhat out of tune with the blood on the battlefield.
"It's coming!" Alonso felt the uneasiness of his horse, and saw the unusual cavalry in front of the phalanx, who had easily rushed to within a few hundred meters of the front of the Delman Empire's military formation, and raised his eyebrows.
"Norslan cavalry! Gravel's newly formed cavalry unit is said to be very strong," Marshal Alonso frowned, very worried that his front line would be penetrated by such fierce cavalry.
On the frontal battlefield, seeing those heavy cavalry, the soldiers of the Delman Empire did not panic, they turned their guns, wanting to bombard the enemies who were constantly approaching them.
