"Chapter 91: The Wolf Rider Retreats"

We live in connection with others, and if we choose to be alone, we are choosing death.

– Alfred Adler (Austrian psychologist)

Thacker is one of the top powerhouses of the Orc Empire, and he is the supreme king of the werewolf race; for the wolf cavalry, the wolf king Thacker is a great existence second only to the beast god, even the beast emperor of the Beamon tribe cannot be compared with the king of their werewolf race.

In the past, when Sack personally led the wolf cavalry to fight, he was usually the most conspicuous position of the army to command the wolf cavalry to charge, or to take the lead in the front line of the battle at the front of the army, which is also the practice of the orc king.

The wolf cavalry, frightened by the slogans of the Spartan army, first searched for Thack in the most conspicuous positions throughout the army, and then searched for Thack at the front of the battle at the front of the army, but to no avail, they panicked.

If the wolf king of the werewolf clan, Tsar, really died here, then the werewolf clan, which was originally one of the strongest clans in the orc empire, would instantly fall to one of the weakest tribes, and the gap between them would be enough to make the werewolf clan lose everything they currently had within the empire.

In addition to the far-reaching impact, as far as the current battle situation is concerned, there is a strong man in the Celestial Dragon Army who can kill the wolf king Saker, which is an unparalleled blow to the morale of the wolf cavalry, and it can even be called fatal.

As the elite division of orc warriors, wolf cavalry has many excellent traits in their bodies, and courage and fearlessness are the qualities that every orc warrior has, but this does not mean that orc warriors will not be afraid, but they will suppress the fear in their hearts.

The fear that can be suppressed by the wolf cavalry is the fear that does not exceed the range of their hearts, and the astonishing fact that their own wolf king was killed is precisely the fear that exceeds the range of their hearts, making them feel panicked and irrepressible.

Thacker, who was frantically fleeing backwards, was so angry that he almost didn't immediately turn back to the front line of battle after hearing the slogans shouted by the Spartan army, and just a moment when he was distracted, Bai Yi, who had caught up, stabbed the long sword in his hand into Thacker's right arm again.

Originally, this was supposed to be the killer sword that pierced Thacker's heart, but in a hurry, Thacker instinctively blocked his heart with his right arm, and the wound in his chest was still bleeding, which added a wound on his right arm, and Thacker, who was full of grief and anger, had to turn his head and flee.

Without Thacker's clarification, all the wolf cavalry who saw Thacker were killed all the way by the five Flame Sword Masters who pursued him, and the wolf cavalry in a panic were demoralized far faster than Thacker had imagined.

After Leonidas personally ordered a counterattack, the spear phalanx at the forefront of the Spartan corps directly abandoned the original defensive formation on the spot and began to advance slowly.

The counterattack of the Spartan legion was not very smooth, and the battle between the two sides was still dominated by anxiety, and the active advance of the spear phalanx only partially increased the casualties of the wolf cavalry.

The slow advance of the pikes, the intensive fire of the longbowmen, the cover of the two wings of the infantry wing, and the tacit understanding of the Spartan legion were like tireless war machines, cutting wounds on the wolf cavalry group, making them constantly lose more strength.

More and more wolf cavalry fell either under the rain of arrows from the longbowmen or under the guns of the pike-phalanx, and the wolf cavalry, which suffered more and more heavy casualties, lacked both the command of the commander and the new tactics to deal with the counterattack of the Spartan army.

The wolf cavalry, who were fighting separately, were purely fighting with the rain of arrows and spears of the Spartan army with their blood, and Bai Feng, who had witnessed the situation developing step by step, seized the time to order the other three armies to surround the wolf cavalry from three sides.

Cabitus, who led the Spartan heavy infantry and royal pikemen to fight back against the wolf cavalry, was reinforced by the first reserve army and the second reserve army, and successfully annihilated more than 3,000 wolf cavalry behind the wolf cavalry cluster, and completely blocked the retreat of the wolf cavalry group.

With the blood of the Spartan warriors in his body, after the total annihilation of this wolf cavalry, he immediately reorganized the soldiers under his command.

The so-called main force for the breakthrough was actually the army led by the Marquis of Rundstead and deployed in the middle, and Bai Feng was worried that the Iron Guard, the Fire Legion, and the City Defense Army would not be able to stop the charge of the wolf cavalry, so Gapitus led the army to block in front of them.

Bonella's First Reserve Army and Carol's Second Reserve Army did not continue to follow behind Cabitus, but were transferred to the left and right flanks by Bai Feng to reinforce the Seventh Wing and the Assault Wing, which were not sufficient.

After ten minutes of fighting between the Spartan army and the wolf cavalry cluster, Hans's left flank army and López's right flank army finally completed the encirclement of the wolf cavalry from both flanks, and the main army that pressed up from behind the wolf cavalry directly launched a fierce attack.

The brave and fearless Spartan heavy infantry, with the cooperation of the royal pikemen, Cretan archers, and iron artillery spearmen, launched an attack on the weakest back of the wolf cavalry.

At this time, the wolf cavalry was not the wolf cavalry when they first entered the battlefield, their charge was no longer strong, their morale was no longer high, and even their wolf king Thacker hid in the army under the pursuit of the Flame Sword Master;

Soon after the main army of the Marquis of Rundstead joined the battle, Hans's left flank army and López's right flank army joined the battle one after another, and once the encirclement of the wolf cavalry group was formed, the wolf cavalry in the encirclement did not even have a chance to recharge.

The shield wall defense line on the left and right flanks, the pike phalanx on the front and rear, and the long-range strikes that were not weak in lethality, the 50,000 wolf cavalry under the command of Thacker had dropped to less than 35,000 as the battle went on, and their casualties were still rising.

Seeing that the 50,000 wolf cavalry under his command had already lost more than 15,000 people, Saker, who was so distressed that he was dripping blood, had just escaped the pursuit of Bai Yi and others, and ordered the whole army to break through and retreat to the left.

On the left side of the wolf cavalry cluster was the right flank army commanded by López, and the shield wall defense of the assault wing was not so easy to break through, but the other soldiers who did not have a shield wall defense line could not hold their line at all in the face of the wolf cavalry's fierce attack.

The total number of wolf cavalry groups still as high as more than 30,000 wanted to retreat, and the breakthrough army, which had a total strength of less than 150,000 and was divided into four armies, could not be stopped after all; at the critical moment, the cavalry wing of the Spartan army used a flank charge to inflict a heavy blow on the wolf cavalry for the last time.

Looking at the 50,000 wolf cavalry that swayed when he came down, and now only the 30,000 wolf cavalry that had retreated from the defeat remained, the pain in the heart of the wolf king Sakur could not be described in words, and as for the two deep wounds on his body, Sakur didn't care at all.

For the orc warriors who grew up in battle, the scars are a testament to their bravery, and as the wolf king, Thack has experienced countless battles that are more brutal than ordinary battles, and bleeding wounds are just a daily occurrence for him.
