Section 132: The Use of Cavalry
The noble cavalry rushed into the battlefield, like a strong wind, the infantry had a natural fear of the cavalry, when this cavalry rushed over, the vassal's infantry dodged, the neighing of the horses and the sound of iron hooves on the ground made the infantry feel terrified.
"Take it, for the honor of your lordship." The noble cavalrymen clenched their spears tightly, and when their horses missed the side of the infantry who were dodging in all directions, they jerked their spears from their horses to one side, and the spear tips stabbed the infantry, and the deadly spear tips led by the horses pierced the infantry's back, easily penetrating the infantry.
"Can't let them get too complacent." Sir Wallace watched angrily as Jeffrey's noble cavalry went on a rampage, and he rode forward to meet his squire.
The knights and squires temporarily halted the attack, but some of the noble cavalry fought with Sir Wallace and others, but others rode around and rushed straight towards Bruce, knowing very well that the thief captured the king first.
"It's now." Bruce grabbed the flag held by the soldier next to him and held it high, and when he saw Bruce's signal, Eve and the others immediately started to act.
"Flag, that's Baron Locke's flag." At the same time, in the midst of the chaotic crowd, the noble cavalry also saw the banner being raised, and they immediately turned their horses and rushed in that direction.
"Protect Lord Baron." Seeing the noble cavalry rushing towards Bruce, the spearmen and pestle men immediately spontaneously escorted Bruce in front, compared to the vassals' infantry, they already had several confrontations with the cavalry.
The noble cavalry suddenly saw several infantry armed with spears and pestles appear in front of Bruce, but they did not take these infantry seriously, and the nobles in heavy armor believed that when they rushed forward on their horses, the reckless infantry would scatter and flee.
"Take it." The noble cavalry tossed on horseback, they clenched the spears in their hands, leaned forward, and bent their elbows to pull the spears back a distance, so that when they were about to be stabbed, the strength of their whole bodies would be concentrated in one point, and it would be easy to pierce the opponent's body.
"Array, roar~~." Unfortunately, this time the noble cavalry miscalculated their opponents, and Grintton's spearmen were the first troops created by Bruce, and they were extremely loyal to Bruce, and the weapons in the hands of the spearmen were also designed for cavalry.
The cavalry slammed into the middle of the spearmen, and the horses neighed in pain, throwing the horsemen off their horses, and of course the spearmen who were directly knocked into them were also hurt, but no one would run away from fear.
"Oh." A noble cavalryman fell from his horse, but fortunately he fell from the soft dirt and grass, and the hard leather armor on his body, but he also fell to his feet, but he still staggered to his feet.
"Kill~." Just when the noble cavalry stood up, a spear pestle soldier stepped forward and raised the spear and pestle to hit him, the noble cavalry did not have time to draw his sword and was hit hard, the spear and pestle compared to the noble sword is a very rudimentary weapon, but it is extremely effective, the heavy spear and pestle as a blunt weapon hit the noble cavalry, and the leather armor is extremely limited in defense against blunt weapons.
"Uh-huh." The noble cavalryman was knocked to the ground, and when he struggled to stand up, he felt a sharp pain in his lower back, and the spear and pestle man picked up the spear and stabbed the noble cavalry in the back, and the iron needle at the front of the spear and pestle could easily pierce the leather armor.
"Damn fellow." The noble cavalry saw several of their companions being dismounted, and their angry horses rushed forward to engage the spearmen and pestle men.
Bruce, of course, was not idle, he clenched the sword of the brave in his hand, and rode into the battle, and when the horse was about to approach him, Bruce suddenly inserted the sword back into the scabbard, and then he took out a crossbow from the other side of the horse's belly, which was already wound and crossbowed.
"It's the Baron, kill him." When a noble cavalryman saw Bruce rushing towards him, he immediately shouted and turned his horse's head and ran straight towards Bruce.
"Whoosh~~." Bruce looked at the noble cavalry rushing over, he raised the crossbow in his hand and didn't have time to aim, he pulled the trigger on the other party, the crossbow arrow made a sharp sound that broke through the air, and shot directly into the face of the noble cavalry, the other party slipped off his horse and fell to the ground with a muffled snort, while his war horse ran past Bruce's side with a neigh.
"Squeak." Bruce pressed the back end of the crossbow to his chest, pulled the bowstring with the strength of both hands, and reloaded the crossbow.
"Despicable guy." Enraged by the sight of Bruce killing his companion with his crossbow, the noble cavalry left behind their rivals and rushed towards Bruce.
"Take it." Seeing that the situation was not good, Bruce immediately turned his horse's head and fled quickly to the rear, and the war horse carried him all the way to gallop, followed by several angry noble cavalry.
The noble cavalry were in hot pursuit, and they wanted to tear Bruce to shreds immediately, but Bruce took the time to turn and pull the trigger as he fled, and fired the crossbow bolt at the pursuing noble cavalry.
"Uh-huh." A pursuing noble cavalryman was shot in the shoulder, but he gritted his teeth and insisted, bent on killing the despicable baron.
"Woo woo ~ ~." At this moment, there was a horn sound from the direction of Jeffrey's military formation, and the noble cavalry stopped in surprise when they heard the horn.
"Why blow the horn of retreat, why blow the horn of retreat?" The noble cavalry looked at each other, wondering what was really going on.
"Look where."
"Damn it."
"The Lord God is above, and we have been fooled."
The noble cavalry saw the direction of Jeffrey's military formation, and saw that a Grington cavalry was raiding there, and the archers who had been resting in place after shooting the arrows in their hands were attacked by the sudden light cavalry, and without the protection of the infantry and the noble cavalry, these archers were hunted like a pack of rabbits.
"Whoosh~." Eve was riding on a horse, and she bent her bow on horseback to shoot an arrow in one go, and the arrow struck one of the archers in the throat, and the other fell to the ground with a terrible howl, and the archers who tried to draw their short knives at their waists were drowned by the horse's hooves in an instant.
"Bastard, get the cavalry back." Jeffrey was temporarily unattacked under the protection of several retainers, but Glinton's light cavalry struck him hard in the rear, and the archers fled the battlefield.
"Whoosh~~."
"Crackle~~."
Suddenly, an arrow struck the banner behind Jeffrey, and the pole of the banner snapped in two, and the lord's banner floated on the ground in the wind.
