Chapter Ninety-One: Into the Urn
The 10,000 cavalrymen shouted in unison, and the sound shook the rock walls at the mouth of the entire canyon for a while, and then they neatly put on a charging posture.
These knights under Andy's command are all elites and have rich combat experience, even without Andy's on-the-spot command, they can form a battle formation at the first time.
The knights' charge was effectively divided into three waves, the first of which was carried out by heavily armored silver-armored knights, all of whom were armed with spears and their horses were strong and powerful, and were best suited to clear the way. The second wave of the charge will have a combination of heavy cavalry and light cavalry, mainly short weapons such as swords and halberds, which can effectively kill and damage the scattered enemy battle formations, but will not be in love, and the main purpose is to further divide the local camp. The final wave, composed entirely of light cavalry, whose goal was to clear the scattered enemy and eventually form an encirclement with the cavalry in front.
As the fog had been dispelled, the cavalry charge was directed against the camps that had been placed at the mouth of the ravine.
The momentum of 10,000 cavalry charging together was not insignificant, and the whole valley trembled. In the eyes of these knights, only a straggler of more than 200 people can have much combat power, even if there is high-end combat power, their charging lineup is naturally not vegetarian, and there are certain defensive means.
It's a pity that they thought wrong, and what they faced next exceeded their expectations.
Just as the cavalry had charged less than three miles from the camp, all of a sudden, the ground collapsed, and the cavalry who rushed to the front were too fast to react, and fell into the deep pit. The cavalry that rushed up from behind didn't have time to stop, and stepped straight past the cavalry in front.
Although those cavalry were carefully selected elites, they could not withstand the trampling after the horses rushed forward. Before many of the cavalrymen who had fallen into the pit could let out a scream, they were trampled into a bloody blur by the horses that rushed up from behind, and the horses let out a terrible neighing sound.
Although the appearance of the big pit suddenly reduced the momentum of the cavalry charge, for the cavalry of 10,000 people, this loss had nothing to do with the overall situation. Soon, the pits were filled with the corpses of the cavalrymen in the front row, and the cavalry following behind them did not even notice that the ground was no longer under their feet, and at this time the army was still two miles away from the camp tent.
The marching army was so imposing that no one even noticed that a cold puppet was clinging to the rock wall of the canyon directly above them. These puppets did not have a trace of expression, and the three crystal eyes on their mechanical faces flashed with silver light, and then their hands took on a posture of bending bows and arrows.
At this time, Andy only felt a chill all over his body, and a strong sense of crisis instantly swept through his whole body. subconsciously looked up at the sky, but was frightened by the scene in front of him for a while
Trembling, he instantly shouted: "Shield guards, defend, form formations, use rune shields!"
A series of orders were issued, which also made the hearts of the charging knights behind him tremble, and while quickly executing the order, they also looked up at the sky.
It's just that the sky, which was originally covered by the surrounding mountains and rocks, and appeared relatively dim, turned out to be a black oppressive piece at this time, and only when you look closely can you find that it is actually countless black arrows sprinkled down like raindrops.
The puppets on the cliff were naturally brought by Ron from Angela's side. However, these puppets are extremely exquisitely crafted, and the internal structure is simply breathtaking. Fortunately, he didn't let those people in the Chamber of Commerce know, if they knew, they would definitely have to rush back to study, this kind of product that belongs exclusively to the ancient elf clan has long been extinct now.
Most of these cavalrymen are ordinary people, but of course a very small number of them are awakened. Therefore, most of the defenses used in this type of army are powered rune armor. As the name suggests, this type of rune armor can also act as a defense by triggering the energy filled with the runes to activate the runes on the armor, even if the user is an ordinary person.
Andy and his cavalry reacted unpleasantly, and in an instant they held up their defenses.
The black arrow rain quickly fell on the defense formed by the rune shields, and only the popping sound was heard, and the runes on the shields were constantly disintegrated under the attack of the black arrows, just like when Ron and the others were attacked.
Ron also knew that the number of golems was limited, and it was impossible to break through the battle formation with a dense attack. You can only use a covering attack to increase the area of the attack to destroy some of the charged rune armor, so as to bring convenience to the subsequent attack.
Andy's eyes were fixed on the rain of black arrows falling from the sky, and he suddenly noticed the abnormality, and cursed secretly: "Damn, what the hell is this, why can it dissolve runes!"
At this time, he also didn't care about finding out the true origin of the black arrow rain, when he found that although the arrow rain covered a large area, it was not dense, combined with the strange effect. In an instant, he understood what the enemy's intentions were, and when he gave an order, he said: "The whole army is advancing at full speed, speed up!"
Everything Andy did was seen by Ron, and he had to be, this commander named Andy was indeed an incredible general. Even in a difficult situation, you can calmly think about countermeasures and make the most advantageous decisions, and sometimes even if you need to sacrifice some people, you are decisive and ruthless. Ron was sure that if he needed to be sacrificed to maximize the benefits of the battlefield, he would not hesitate to sacrifice himself.
Such a person is terrible, because he is too calm, so calm that he is like a cold machine.
After a rain of arrows, the cavalry even defended
They didn't know when the rain of arrows would fall again, speed was their biggest dependence.
In the blink of an eye, the cavalry had arrived at a mile from the camp. All of them had red eyes, and they looked extremely excited.
"Ready, let's catch turtles in an urn. Ron's faint voice was transmitted in the communication rune.
Hearing the sound coming from the runes, the many silver-armored knights who were arranged at the back of the camp tent were all riveted, with a resolute expression on their faces like looking at death. The man at the head was none other than Baron Utis. The two long-handled battle axes in his hands flew up and down in his hands, and there was a hint of solemnity on his face.
After a series of previous events, he no longer had the arrogant attitude towards Ron at the beginning, but with a hint of reverence. Because what Ron did outside would be revealed to all the nobles, royalty, and the Academy's temporary residences through the Tracing Crystal Cup.
That accurate prediction and the opponent's brilliant game, if it weren't for the fact that the commander of the vanguard army was also extremely powerful, I am afraid that they would not have to go to this step at all now, and they would be able to wipe out the so-called elites on the other side.
"Brothers, the opportunity to make a contribution has come, don't look like a dead parent, cheer me up, I believe that Ron will not let us die in vain. Utis raised his tomahawk in his hand and roared.
After the two hundred knights behind him looked at each other for a while, they all smiled, and they didn't know who shouted, "The time has come to make meritorious contributions, Lao Tzu has long wanted to change from a centurion to a thousand-commander, brothers, what about you!"
After everyone laughed for a while, they all raised their weapons and let out a beastly roar, and their momentum was not lost to the cavalry lineup of 10,000 people.
The rumbling sound of horses' hooves was close at hand, everyone could feel the strong tremor on the ground, and everyone's hands holding weapons were dripping with fine sweat, but the expressions on their faces were no longer as depressed as before, and they were all smiling.
Just when the cavalry formation was less than five hundred meters away from the camp, dark clouds suddenly appeared in the sky, and at the same time, a white viscous mist surged on the ground around it.
This scene made Andy feel excited, and suddenly an ominous premonition swept through his body, and he roared angrily in the direction of the distance behind him: "Yasin! What are you doing for Lao Tzu!"
It's a pity that his voice stopped abruptly less than a mile away, and Yasin, who was outside the big array, didn't even know what was happening here, and was still studying the magic circle enchantment set up by Ron, humming a tune in his mouth.
