Chapter 674: Deserted and Fleeing

He hated these damned infidels, and although he hated them before, he never hated them to the point of hatred.

But now, they have actually killed General Baander, which has brought his attitude towards the Piyers to the bottom, and if possible, he even wants to exterminate them!

He stood up, laid the body of General Banled, and began to command the soldiers.

He was the aide-de-camp of General Bannade and the second-in-command of the army, and he had the right to take over the army after General Bannader's death.

Soon, the Piars at the rear of the line were defeated by the royal army, and their morale finally collapsed completely, and they began to scatter and flee.

Immediately afterwards, the light cavalry also launched an attack on the Piars in front of the kingdom of Arisala.

They didn't charge directly, and he didn't want too many casualties among his men.

They rode to the enemy's side, harassed and drained them with their bows, and fled before the enemy could react.

After all, their riding bows were modified from the recurve composite bow, and their range and power were much stronger than those of the Piars.

At least, the fact that the range of the rifle bow far exceeded that of the mounted bow did not happen to the light cavalry, who used their riding bows to achieve great deeds and kill countless enemies again and again.

The Piyard soldiers were annoyed by the light cavalry, and the Balayan warriors were furious, but since they had no ranged weapons, they could only sulk helplessly.

Every time the hussars rushed to their side, the archers would shoot at them in a covering manner, but to no avail, for their pitiful range could not pose a threat to the hussars.

At this time, the Iron Cross Knights finally regrouped, and after defeating the Normasra cavalry, they shifted their goals.

At this time, the Iron Cross Knights only had about one hundred and fifty men left, and they had lost more than forty of them in the battle just now.

After all, the enemy was the terrible Nomasra cavalry, and even the Knights Templar were not a powerful army of opponents, and it was already good to be able to defeat the enemy with such small casualties.

The enemy, on the other hand, paid the price of nearly a hundred casualties, and in fact, if it had not been for the flight of Prince Saraska, they would not have been defeated so quickly.

To be sure, the Normasra cavalry were slightly superior to the Iron Cross Knights in horseback fighting, except that they were inferior to the Iron Cross Knights when charging down.

But the Iron Cross Knights' well-groomed wall charge combined with their four-meter-long lances gave them an advantage when it came to hedging.

What's more, their equipment is better than that of the Normasra cavalry, and all these things allow the Iron Cross Knights to win this battle.

Many of the remaining 150 Iron Cross Knights had broken armor, and it was not uncommon for them to receive blows in previous battles, but due to the excellent armor protection of both sides, there were not so many casualties.

They no longer had lances in their hands, but the Iron Cross Knights, who were heavy cavalry, were no ordinary infantry to compete with.

They quickly set up a charging formation, but this time it was no longer a wall charge, but a wedge formation against the infantry formation.

They are very neatly formed, and although they only hold a long sword and a knight's shield in their hands, they are still very intimidating to the infantry dreaming of you.

The rumbling hooves of the horses sounded, and the horses, with their masters, gathered incomparable inertia and impact to the enemy's side.

Facing the Knights of the Iron Cross at this time were the Piard archers, who were supposed to be at the back of their troops to be protected.

However, the location where the Iron Cross Knights appeared was behind them, which also exposed the archers directly to the attack of the Iron Cross Knights.

The roaring hooves of the Iron Cross rang out behind them, making their hearts beat erratically.

"Ahh

With a burst of screams, the horses rushed into the midst of the Piard archers, and in addition to the long swords wielded by the knights from time to time, the horses' chests and hooves also inflicted a lot of damage on the enemy.

Many people were knocked out by the heavy horse Kai war horse, and the people who were knocked away were all broken in the chest and injured in the eyes.

In addition to this, many people were trampled by horses' hooves.

The Iron Cross knights wielded their swords, but it has to be said that the damage caused by the swords was not as great as the number of damage caused by the horses.

Soon, under the blows of the Iron Cross knights, the archers also collapsed.

But the Knights of the Iron Cross did not stop there, and set their sights on the Piard infantry behind.

They began to accelerate, and their horses had lost too much kinetic energy in the charge just now, so they needed to speed up again before they could continue the charge.

And Sirleaf looked at the battle situation in front of him and immediately seized the opportunity, and ordered the soldiers under his command to cooperate with the Iron Cross Knights to launch a flanking attack.

"Attack! Offensive! Kill all the damned infidels! Avenge General Baanlede! Sirleaf shouted loudly.

And the soldiers of the kingdom of Arisera are also marching quickly, and their hearts are also full of hatred for the Piars.

General Bannade, as their commander-in-chief, is very good to them on weekdays, whether it is food, salary, or life, all of them will be concerned.

Therefore, the soldiers of the Diliste Line loved him very much, and his death at the hands of the Piars made everyone indignant.

When the light cavalry saw that the Iron Cross knights had started to charge, they couldn't just put arrows on the side, so they carried their riding bows behind them, picked up the three-meter cavalry spears hanging behind them, and charged with the Iron Cross knights.

They wore a piece of leather armor with a layer of iron chain mail, and the helmet was a top-chain armor-style helmet, with the exception of iron plates on the top of the head and cheeks and the back of the head, and the eyes were held down to the neck, which fit the armor they wore to avoid being decapitated by the enemy.

And this helmet also has a brim on it, which is similar to the structure of the pot helmet, to prevent arrows from the top of the head.

Their formation was noticeably looser than that of the Iron Cross Knights, who were light cavalry and didn't do much formation training.

In this way, together with the Iron Cross Knights, they launched a charge against the enemy.

Their spears are also relatively easy to break, and they will quickly throw away their spears and draw their sabers after stabbing them into the enemy's body.

The Balaya warriors are extremely elite, but after all, they are still infantry, and they are still helpless against the impact of cavalry, even a group of light cavalry can use their impact and mobility to defeat them.

Eventually, some of the enemies realized that something was wrong and began to flee elsewhere.
