Chapter 433: Chopping melons and vegetables
General Vidason's face couldn't help but distort slightly when he heard such casualties, and then, he suddenly reacted and said to Vidason beside him: "Quick! Tell me to get out of here at once! ”
He only reacted now, the sudden burning of the flames in the forest just now must be because of the Holy War Army, since it was the Holy War Army that set the fire, then even if their purpose was not to wipe them out, then they must also drive them out of the forest.
Now that their purpose had been achieved, how could they not take advantage of the weakness of the Norweeds when they had just come out of the forest to strike a blow at them?
Although he did not think of and guard against the Holy War of the Holy War in advance, it was all due to the difference in his way of thinking, not only was he not stupid, but his IQ was quite high, otherwise he would not be able to be the commander of a full 80,000 soldiers.
At the same time, the Holy War Army was also quickly ready for battle, and more than 2,000 Holy Grail Knights were quickly assembled, as were 500 Templars, and William's Iron Cross Knights were not weak, and they completed the assembly almost at the same time.
The three knights of the Eastern Road Holy War Army are competing in secret, they usually look at each other unpleasantly, they are all knights, and their reputations are all so prosperous, no one is convinced of the other, and no one wants to admit that the other party is stronger than themselves.
This is especially true of the Knights of the Iron Cross, who are only eight years after their founding as young knights in terms of name and seniority as the Knights of the Holy Grail and the Knights Templar.
But they asked themselves that they were no worse than anyone else in terms of combat ability, and that was indeed confirmed in battle.
The other noble knights were far inferior to them, not only were their equipment and combat effectiveness much worse than these knights, but they were also inferior in discipline.
Although they are also very high-status and relatively combative, they can still be said to be almost useless in front of these knights.
Finally, more than an hour passed, and these noble knights and wandering knights were finally ready, and the infantry were ready early.
Two thousand Knights of the Holy Grail, one thousand fifteen hundred Knights of the Iron Cross, plus five hundred Knights of the Holy Grail, and seven thousand Knights of Dominic Nobles and Wandering Knights, more than 11,000 knightly troops of extraordinary combat strength were assembled on the high ground of the valley and ready to fight.
The horses under their crotches all felt the blood and the coming tragic war, and the sound of sneezing sounded from their noses, and the horses' hooves were constantly gouging on the ground, as if they wanted to take their masters to the battlefield to show their strength.
King Leonac watched such a grand scene from behind, and even the ruler of the kingdom of Astra, a country of knights, had never seen such a battle.
Although the kingdom of Astra can do it with great efforts to mobilize, it has never encountered anything like that since he ascended the throne, so he has never seen such a situation.
At the level of William, he can no longer fight with the army for the first time, leading the troops to fight and command the battle is what he should do, and as for charging into battle, he handed it over to Norwen and Hurim.
As the deputy head of the Iron Cross Knights, Norwen was tasked with leading the Knights' charge and directing the Knights in battle on the front line.
The sound of the war horse's nose was incessant, as if it was a powder keg about to be ignited, which made people shudder when they heard it.
William was granted the right to give the order to charge, and the Knight of the Iron Cross overtook the other knights, waiting quietly at the front of the entire ranks of knights, waiting for their lord's order to charge.
All their attention was on their backs, waiting for the order to charge.
After all, the queue of 10,000 people was too long, and if the order was given like this, it would not be possible to wait for the herald to leave them and charge.
The Iron Cross banner in William's hand fell suddenly, pointing to the front.
After seeing this, Norwen in the first row immediately pressed down the four-meter cavalry spear tied to the Iron Cross pennant, clamped it under his armpit, and shouted loudly in the direction of the enemy: "Iron Cross Knights!" Charge!!! ”
The silence before the battle was immediately broken, and in an instant, it seemed that only this command to charge was left in the heavens and the earth.
And then, the sound of horses' hooves, which was louder than the spring thunder, as if it was about to crush the whole earth, gradually sounded, and the body of every knight was a spirit.
They were hardly individuals at this time, but tens of thousands of souls gathered together by the command of the charge, fearless for their goal, for the crushing of their enemies.
With the acceleration of the horse's hooves, the chaos at the beginning became orderly, and the horse's running began to have a rhythm.
Not a single horse increased its speed to the extreme, accelerating faster and faster under the slope of the valley, like lightning bolts, galloping towards the enemy.
Speed brought the wind, a bitter wind ringing in the ears of the knights, and through the peephole of the helmet poured into it frantically, the cold wind and whistling blocked the knights' ears, causing them to fall into a state of madness.
Their veins did not seem to be filled with blood, but with gasoline filled with the Fury Factor, and the roar of the charge was the smallest of sparks, small but capable of igniting entire barrels of gasoline.
Let all the gasoline start to burn violently, and the knights also rushed towards the enemy with the war horse under their crotch as if they were ignited with the anger and fury factor in their hearts.
At this time, they will not be afraid of casualties, they will not be afraid of pain, they will only have one thought in their hearts, that is, charge and charge, crush all the enemies in front of them, and break everything that stands in their way.
All the knights, including Norwen, were very crazy, and the sound of horses' hooves resounded throughout the world, even dozens of kilometers away.
And General Vidasen and the Norweeds who had just escaped could hear it.
General Vidasen's face was as pale as earth, and he muttered with some dejected words: "I didn't expect them to move so fast!" ”
Although General Vidasen is helpless, he is the commander of the entire army after all, and he must not fall into the back and helplessness and cannot extricate himself.
He said to Salim, "Give me another command!" Let everyone disperse! Spread out and flee, we are definitely no match for the enemy in such a state! Let everyone retreat separately! We meet at Fort Darlings! ”
With that, he fled to the left rear with thousands of soldiers, hoping to get out of here as soon as possible.
What so-called setting an example for the soldier is useless, even if he stays here, it should be a rout or a rout, and it will not play a role in boosting morale at all.
It is better to go to Fort Darlins as soon as possible to regroup, defend, and then stop the Jihadist Army.
In this way, these Norweed people also began to find their own way to escape.
The speed of the knights' charge was also quite fast, and in a few minutes, they rushed from the hillside to the flat ground, and then rushed towards the Norwids who were about to flee.
In this way, the impact of the knights was almost unbeatable, killing countless enemies like chopping melons and vegetables.
