Chapter 316: Reckless Attack (66/104)
Walking out of the tent, the icy rain poured down his head and face, drenching all over Kyiros's body, and the water slid down the folds of his silk pajamas.
However, at this moment, Kyiros didn't feel any chill, anger filled his chest, and his whole body seemed to burn.
"Damn it! And which force is this? Saxon Legion, destroy them for me! ”
With a loud shout, Kylos strode to the lookout, where he could see his surroundings more clearly.
I saw that at the rear of the Prussian camp, a cavalry corps was charging at them, and at this moment, the distance between the cavalry corps and their camp was less than a kilometer.
At this distance, the vision was still a little blurry, and it was impossible to distinguish the number of opponents, nor could they see the enemy's banner clearly, and it was impossible to distinguish which family's troops were under their command.
"Humph! Whoever you are, since you're here, don't even think about leaving! Kyiros said coldly, and then gave several orders in quick succession.
The Prussian regiment immediately moved, like a huge monster slowly showing its claws, and the infantry phalanx on the east and west sides of the camp began to move outward, and the middle phalanx retracted, so that the whole Prussian army immediately became an open net, waiting for the poor man who accidentally broke in.
As soon as those cavalry broke in, the infantry on both sides would immediately surround them, and by that time, it would be impossible for the cavalry team besieged by a large number of infantry to escape.
Kylos stared gloomily ahead, as if he had seen the destruction of the cavalry team, and could even faintly hear the other party's pleas for mercy.
At the thought of these scenes, Kylos couldn't help but want to let out laughter, but in the next second, he couldn't laugh at all.
I saw that the cavalry team in front of me, which was charging, suddenly ...... when it rushed to a position about 800 meters away from the Prussian battalion Turned.
The forward of the cavalry ran off track, and the cavalry at the front began to turn to the left, and after drawing a huge arc on the plain, turned back to the Prussian battalion.
The same is true for the soldiers behind the forward, the whole cavalry team is very tacit, the front and back are connected, like a nimble water snake, dexterously turning, and quickly fleeing into the distance along the road from which it came.
Kyiros was stunned, the soldiers of the Prussian regiment were stunned, the whole audience was silent, and more than 20,000 Prussian soldiers stood in place in the rain like fools, watching the brigade of cavalry gradually move away.
From beginning to end, they didn't see clearly how many people there were on the other side, nor did they figure out what kind of people they were, but they could vaguely see dense flag shadows, floating in the sky above the cavalry.
What does that mean? Trick me? The thought crossed Kyiros's mind, and he suddenly had the feeling of being teased.
As a child, he used to see a juggler teasing a monkey on the streets of Berlin City, and now, he feels like that monkey.
The other party rushed over in a hurry, but he didn't say hello and left directly? What is this called?
Kylos was furious, not only Kyiros, but also the Prussian legions, up to the generals at all levels, down to an ordinary sword and shield infantryman, all of them were angry.
The other party provoked them so recklessly and teased them, even if it was a torrential rain, it could not extinguish the anger of the Prussian army.
"Prussian Left and Right Wing Corps! Strike, catch up with those damned cavalrymen for me, and hack them all to death! ”
With a roar of rage, the ten thousand-strong phalanx chased after him, and the soldiers ran forward quickly, striding into the muddy puddle, and the muddy water immediately splashed.
The sound of the 10,000-strong army marching across the plain was so intense that it seemed to beat countless heavy drums, and because there was no interception, the impact speed of these Prussian infantry was also quite slow, and they rushed up after the back of the cavalry.
The left and right flank legions attacked, and 10,000 soldiers of the Chinese army guarded the large camp, and Keilos estimated that the opponent's cavalry could never exceed 3,000 people, and the infantry phalanx of 10,000 people was enough to defeat the enemy.
It would have been foolish to chase the cavalry with infantry, but now the situation was different, because in the direction of the cavalry fleeing, there was a hillside in the way.
The speed of the cavalry as it crossed the hillside was bound to slow down considerably, and the heavy rain made it more difficult for the cavalry to climb the hillside, so it was impossible for them to catch up with the cavalry.
Although Kylos was furious, he did not lose his most basic judgment and strategic command, and sure enough, when the cavalry troops reached the bottom of the hill, the speed of advance immediately slowed down a lot, and the Prussian infantry pursued quickly, and the distance between the two sides became closer and closer.
Keilos very much wanted to leave all the cavalry behind, in fact, he was still a little afraid now, thanks to the fact that these cavalry appeared at this time, if the time was a little earlier, and the large camp that suddenly attacked him in the middle of the siege battle, the situation would definitely be even more dangerous.
Eugen rode through the plains on black gold, rushing towards the top of the hillside, with a confident smile on his face, seemingly unconcerned about the pursuers sent by the other party.
In fact, what he was afraid of was that the other party would not chase him out, and at this moment the Prussian soldiers came out to pursue, but they were right in his hands.
"Hehe, Kyiros, enjoy the great gift I have in store for you, and let me see how bold you really are." Eugen said with a chuckle.
The reason why he chose this time to attack was to make Kyiros panic and disturb his mind.
During the previous siege war, he didn't think about attacking the Prussian camp, but at that time, the Longxiang army had already been sent out by him, and it was too risky to storm the camp with only a thousand infantry converted into cavalry.
After weighing the two, Eugen finally followed his original plan and did not rush into action.
On rainy days, the mountain roads on the hillside became slippery and muddy, and when the cavalry came here, the speed of advance suddenly slowed down considerably.
In some cases, the cavalry had to dismount from their horses and lead their horses up the hill carefully, while the Prussian army in the rear kept approaching and seemed to be chasing to the foot of the mountain.
However, observing the expressions on the faces of these cavalrymen, there was no trace of panic, but they were very calm, as if they were waiting for the enemy to catch up.
Turning over a small hill again, Eugen stopped directly and looked back at the situation below, with a confident smile on his face, as if waiting for something.
