Chapter 348: Conspiracy
When the commander of the Swabian army, Count Landy, rushed back to Walloon with a hundred Swabian cavalry and saw the Burgundian cavalry facing each other half a mile, he knew that the main camp of the Walloon garrison had fallen.
The Adjutant of the Swabian army kicked his horse forward, "Lord Count, what should I do?" Do you want to wait for all the armies behind you to recapture the garrison camp? ”
Randy knew that the chances of attacking Wallonburg were very slim in this situation, so he must have pondered for a while, "Send someone to send an order to the army behind, except for the Hoffmann Legion (Landi's elite private soldiers, three hundred people) and cavalry, all the rest of the army will immediately return to the three castles of Genet, Médière and Capredière, you go and distribute the troops, and deploy more elites to Fort Genet, Fort Genet has just occupied the fortress wall and has not had time to repair it, I am worried that the enemy will take the opportunity to attack Fort Genet." ”
"Yes, Lord Count!" The adjutant was on call.
"What about the garrison camp of Fort Valonia?" The adjutant still asked, after all, the Wallonburg garrison camp was where Landi's Chinese army was located, and if it was discarded like this, I was afraid that it would be reprimanded by the Swabian court.
Lan Di's heart trembled, but his face was not revealed, "The garrison camp will definitely not be able to get it back, but I have to take someone for a trip." ”
Valon Fort could only garrison less than 300 men, and the enemy's infantry regiment plus the original garrison of Valon Fort was far more than 300, so Randy expected that they were still outside the city to meet the enemy, and he wanted to see how the enemy prepared to meet him.
Randy led his Earlguard and Swabian cavalry towards the confronting Burgundian cavalry......
On the opposite side of the Swabian charging cavalry, Lusignan, Reyek, and Jafar stood on horseback, and the horses under them snorted and kicked their front hooves, and the half-body plate armor and plate chain mail on their bodies glowed with a dark gray metallic cold light in the refraction of the sun; Lusignan held a mace with a mace, Jafar carried a riding bow, and the knightly Reyek held a riding spear.
Behind the three of them, there was much difference in the armament of the two dozen cavalrymen, each of whom had at least one set of chain mail and long and short weapons, and elite cavalry officers such as Red also wore a half-body plate armor made by the weapon workshop.
"Sir Rayek, you take the first and second teams to meet the enemy head-on, dragging their forwards."
"Jafar, you take the third team to the right flank to harass."
"I led the fourth team to attack from the left flank."
"Most of them are heavy cavalry, and we will definitely suffer if we hit it hard, but their horses can't outrun us, so we will circle around them to slow down the march of the enemy cavalry, and buy time for the sergeant to hurry up and prepare for battle."
As soon as Lusignnan deployed, he kicked his horse in the belly, and six or seven light cavalry leading the fourth banner of Red ran towards the left flank of the charging Swabian heavy cavalry.
The cavalry team led by Lusignan seized the only advantage to fight with the Swabian heavy cavalry, shooting a few arrows or throwing a few spears from a dozen paces, and when Swabia threw the reins, he pulled his horse and fled.
Swabian was in Wallonburg, and did not want to entangle with this enemy cavalry, which was clearly blocking the advance, so after driving the enemy from the side, they began to return to the group.
However, from time to time, someone picked out to harass, and occasionally injured one or two heavy cavalry, the speed of Schwabian's charge was still greatly affected, and when Count Landy rushed to the Swabian garrison camp outside Walloon Castle with a hundred cavalry, the huge camp had already burst into flames, dozens of military tents, more than a dozen large siege equipment, and more than 20 stacks of hay in the corner of the barracks to feed the war horses and livestock turned into flames.
"Tut-tut, it's a pity, it's all good things, it burns me hard!" On the east gate of the Walloon Fort Wall, Wez sighed incessantly, the smoke and fire in the east had enveloped the entire camp, and the good quality of the military tents and a large amount of military supplies had been burned.
Klaus, the captain of the heavily armored infantry team standing next to Weez, was very refreshed, these Swabians like to burn the village the most, and now it is their turn to be burned, which feels really good, "It's all Swabian things that are burned, and they don't feel much distressed, what are you distressed about?" ”
Weiz glanced back at this strong man in fine armor, and said resentfully: "Of course you bastard is not distressed, you heavy infantry eat the best food, wear the heaviest armor, use the best weapons, and live in the warmest camp tents, you look at our infantry flag team, in order to squeeze out some military tents for those prisoners, a squadron of more than a dozen people is crowded into a military tent, seeing that it is getting colder and colder, and even the felt blanket is not matched." ”
Klaus smashed his mouth and glanced at the smoke in the east again, "You really shouldn't have burned them all, but it's too late to transport them away, you see how fast the Swabian can return to help." ”
"The Swaben have gone to the north wall, you guard the east wall, and I will mobilize the defenders' crossbowmen to garrison the north wall." Weeds patted Klaus on the shoulder and stepped down the wall to dispatch the defenders' crossbowmen to the north wall
"What do those Burgundian mongrels want to do?"
More than two hundred paces east of Walloonburg, the Swabian cavalry stood still, and they were frightened by the formation of carriages under the eastern wall, and they had never seen such a strange-looking carriage.
"Lord Count, I'll take someone to attack and see what kind of conspiracy the enemy is engaged in." The knight beside Randy was about to take someone to touch the strange car formation.
"Stop! Haven't you been fooled enough by the enemy? Randy stopped the urge of the knight beside him, for he had seen the triangles on the side boards of the carriages, and his instinct told him that there must be a weapon behind the holes.
"Lord Count?"
The knight's eyes were already glowing with blood, and the enemy was too vile for him to feel humiliated.
"That Burgundian bastard is so despicable, we have fought them as promised, they have stepped down traps and potholes on the battlefield, and they have taken the opportunity to sneak up on our rear camp, and now they are cowering under the city and deliberately provoking. What kind of aristocrat is this TM? Where is the honor of the knights? "The knight has gone out of wrath.
Lan Di glanced up at the garrison camp that had turned into ashes, "There is only life and death on the battlefield, there is no conspiracy, if you are defeated, it is called a conspiracy, and if you win, it is a conspiracy." But such people will be punished by God! ”
The knight glanced at the chariot formation, and knew that even heavy cavalry would be difficult to break through, and even if it did, it would be meaningless, "Lord Earl, what should we do now?" ”
"Meet up with the infantry, let's go back to Ao Nang City first, and come back when we have gathered enough supplies, food and grass."
Randy sighed, "I have to deal with the court's reproaches again." "166 net
