I think one can live in obscurity in the world, completely unknown, without fame, ambition and cruelty.

- Krishnamurti (the greatest spiritual teacher of the twentieth century)

Squadron Leader Claire, a squadron leader of the 2nd Squadron of the 1st Lance Wing of the Lance Regiment, and his 7th Squadron, as the best squadron in the 2nd Squadron in normal training, was rightfully deployed next to the Captain of the Cabitus.

The 1st Lance Wing is the most powerful of the four Lance Wings, and it is also the main wing that forms the first spear defense line.

Among them, the 1st Brigade, which was slightly stronger in training than the 2nd Brigade, was deployed by Cabitus in the fourth platoon of this spear line to improve the combat endurance of the spear line, and the 2nd Brigade, which was second only to the 1st Brigade, was deployed in the first platoon to face the enemy's charge.

As a veteran of the southern invasion of the steppe tribes, Claire has never made any commendable feats on the battlefield, and if escaping the favor of death is a kind of ability, then Claire is indeed a capable veteran.

In the Lance Legion, which was formed entirely by new recruits, Claire, who had actual combat experience, was naturally promoted to squadron leader, but even so, Claire, who had seen the strength of the steppe cavalry, still disdained her commander's intention to confront the steppe cavalry head-on.

Perhaps, it was not his own corps commander who wanted to use the spear corps to confront the steppe cavalry head-on, but General Bai Feng, who was the supreme commander of the army.

Claire, whose hometown is in the province of Longchamps, was evacuated to Besançon with his family, and at that time he was only an insignificant soldier with no way to change his family's refugee status.

It wasn't until Bai Feng led his army to Besançon Province that Claire's family changed from refugees to imperial citizens and had a new house in the towns on the outskirts of Besançon.

Later, Claire was recruited into the Spear Legion and then promoted to Squadron Leader, and from the day he was promoted to Squadron Leader, his family was not only exempted from all taxes by Bai Feng, but also became a military family under Bai Feng's special care.

With such great kindness, Claire, who was born as a civilian and didn't know any big truths, felt that even if he died on the battlefield for General Bai Feng, he should have it, so he did not have the slightest resistance to the military order issued by General Bai Feng himself.

Seeing that the enemy cavalry cluster like a devouring beast was getting closer and closer, Claire, who followed his regiment commander to shout the slogan, comforted the soldiers who were trembling slightly beside him: "Remember the combat methods we have trained, and dealing with cavalry is our strength. ”

"Squadron leader, you say, will we be trampled to death by the war horses of the enemy cavalry?" The ordinary soldier who spoke, his voice already had a hint of crying: "I'm only twenty-one years old this year, I don't want to die!"

"Will we be trampled to death by the enemy's cavalry, I don't know. Turning her head to look at the warrior under her command, Claire said in a heavy tone, "But I know that if we don't fight to the death here until the last moment, then the family behind us will be killed by the enemy." ”

"I ......"

"Whew...... Shout...... Whew......"

Waiting for the warrior to say anything more, he could never speak, and when he was still a hundred meters away from the first line of spear defense, the Red Banner Cavalry, skilled in volleys, shot their arrows at the heavily guarded line as they galloped wildly.

Fortunately, Claire was as lucky as ever, the soldiers on his left and right were shot on the spot by the enemy cavalry at the same time, but he was still standing unscathed, and the next second, the two pikemen in the second row stepped forward to Claire's side.

When the cavalry with red flags were skillfully riding and shooting, the longbowmen and crossbowmen of the pikemen regiment, who had been gathering momentum for a long time, immediately launched a thunderous counterattack against the cavalry with red flags, and the dense rain of longbows and arrows and the powerful crossbow arrows flew towards the cluster of the cavalry with red flags in the charge.

Claire didn't know how many casualties his longbowmen and crossbowmen could inflict on the enemy's cavalry, but what Claire could see with his own eyes was that two of the three enemy cavalrymen who were almost rushing in front of him were shot like hedgehogs in an instant, along with their horses.

With the spear in his hand, can he resist the charge of this enemy cavalry? Looking at the fierce face of the enemy cavalry, Claire, who felt that she could not escape the fate of death today, closed her eyes and clenched the handle of the gun in her hand with both hands.

The impact of the cavalry rushing into the spear line was very great, and one second Claire felt the spear in his hand pierce into the body of the horse under the seat of the enemy cavalry, and the next moment he was almost knocked off by the powerful impact.

After moving backwards for nearly half a meter, Claire, whose hands were torn apart, opened her closed eyes under intense pain, and at this time, what appeared in front of him was not a fierce enemy cavalry, but a dead enemy corpse.

The extra-long spear in his hand, after stabbing the cavalryman's neck at an angle, pierced the horseman's chest with great inertia, and let the enemy's blood spray on his face, Claire discovered for the first time that the steppe cavalry was not invincible.

As it turned out, Claire was never the only one who was lucky, and there were not a few pikemen who successfully killed the onrushing enemy cavalry at the same time, but more often than not, they could not resist the charge of the enemy cavalry, and the pikemen who were killed by the brutal enemy cavalry were knocked away.

As long as the pikemen did not kill the enemy cavalry rushing up, it was impossible to avoid the fate of being killed by the enemy cavalry; a cruel war is like this, either you die or I die, especially the soldiers who rushed to the front line, the casualties are even more heavy!

Claire, who escaped the catastrophe, was not happy for long, and the endless enemy cavalry rushed like a tide, so that he didn't even have time to think, so he could only clench the spear in his hand and resist the fierce attacks of the enemy cavalry wave after wave.

"Thorn!"

A hoarse roar resounded through the battlefield, but it was very familiar to Claire's ears, it was the voice of his legion commander, Claire, who didn't have time to think, as soon as she heard the word 'thorn', she instinctively stabbed out the spear in her hand without the slightest hesitation.

Claire, who was covered in blood, no longer knew whether the blood on his body belonged to the enemy or his own, he only knew that he mechanically stabbed out the spear in his hand, and then pulled it back vigorously, and unconsciously muttered in his mouth: "The seventh!"

The pikemen who were only in their eyes were fighting, and they had no time or opportunity to think about things that had nothing to do with killing the enemy, and in order to survive, they had to keep track of their kills while obeying orders unconditionally, just like Claire.

The red banner cavalry who did not rush to the forefront of the battle, the longbowmen and crossbowmen behind the pikemen hoplites, their shooting never stopped;
