Chapter 325: Fatal Blow
"It seems that Duke Bunkerson's ridiculous reinforcements have fallen, what can an eight-thousand-strong army do?"
Although King Brolin was thirty-three years old, he was still quite arrogant, and he didn't pay any attention to the more than 7,000 troops sent by the Kingdom of Riborn.
Even with the addition of four hundred Templars, King Brolin was not afraid, and the country's thriving strength over the years made him very confident.
He has always had a downward attitude towards the defeated subordinates of the Kingdom of Ribone four years ago, so he did not take the enemy seriously.
"All the knights! Take your glory and crush the ridiculous reinforcements of the enemy! ”
King Brolin said with a smile, and without even asking about the number and specifics of the enemy, he dispatched all the knights to charge.
More than 2,100 knights gathered together in this way, their smocks and pennants were varied, and the nobles to which they belonged were also very different, and the royal knights of the Friends wore the same smocks.
As soon as the commander of the royal knights gave the order, the two thousand and one hundred knights began to trot slowly, and then began to slowly increase their speed.
With the acceleration of the war horse and the blessing of inertia, the speed of the horse began to get faster and faster, and finally, the sound of the two thousand and one hundred knights trampling on the ground under the crotch of the war horse actually converged into a thunderous sound.
Bombarded everyone's heart, the feeling of depression that was about to come was enveloped in everyone's head.
Charging in the opposite direction, the knights were clearly influenced by the king of Brolin and did not take the strength of the enemy into account.
The charge was almost like a game, or a regular training session.
What they didn't expect was that a crack parted between the enemy's camp, which looked like it was more than seven thousand men, and then a large number of knights dressed no less than their equipment came out of it.
Gradually, the knights felt that something was wrong, because the number of knights who came out was obviously a bit abnormal, and in their opinion, it was already very surprising that the enemy could come up with more than seven or eight hundred knights.
But now, the number of knights who appeared in front of him alone has roughly reached seven hundred, and there are still knights coming out in the back.
That number was obviously far more than seven hundred, and later, the enemy directly said that the formation was separated, and all the knights came out.
This is a good thing, the knights originally speculated that there were only seven or eight hundred knights, and it seemed that there were more than them, and it might be more than three thousand.
They were also dressed in a variety of smocks, and pennants of different patterns and colors were tied to their rifles, and after the long sound of brass trumpets from behind, they quickly set up their formation.
After the formation was completed, they began to move slowly, and this number of knights could no longer charge at will like dozens of knights.
With this amount, making any tactical move and deployment requires a long period of preparation and difficult mobilization, so they can only move slowly now.
However, the distance between the two sides was not close, and the enemy knights had enough time to increase the speed of their horses.
Of the nearly 3,000 knights, 700 were affiliated with the Kingdom of Riborn, 500 were Templars affiliated with the Church, and the Kingdom of Lillard had more than 1,200 knights, and the remaining 300 were wandering knights who fought with the army.
They hoped to gain prestige, honor, and wealth through war, and it would be even better if they could be valued by a nobleman, and be accepted as a knight and have a fief of their own.
With this in mind, these wandering knights joined the battle sequence.
The nearly 3,000-strong knightly force had already broken away from the initial trot and began a slow process of speed.
Thirty seconds passed, and the war horse finally reached the speed of charging under the premise of carrying people, armor, weapons, and horse armor.
This time, it was the louder sound of horses' hooves, almost resounding in the sky.
The king of Brolin on this side still did not realize the crisis of the situation, and still thought that the enemy had only dispatched 8,000 men, instead of thinking about the two alliances in front of him, which included 3,000 knights alone, adding up to more than 20,000 people.
"Doing your best! We must conquer Fort Cancherin today! ”
King Brolin tried his best to boost morale at the front, but he did not find the unreasonableness of the battle situation behind.
The sound of horses' hooves was almost the only sound in the world at this moment, and the sound of stamping on the ground made almost everyone tremble.
"Boom!"
There was a shaking of the heavens and the earth, and the sound of the mountains and seas colliding, and the knight troops on both sides, which totaled more than 5,000 people, finally collided together like Mars hitting the earth.
The sound of the spear breaking was endless, and the neighing of the death of the war horse was also heard one after another, and in this number of charges, the war horse forced to stop by the enemy still charged forward with the unparalleled impact power given by the war horse behind him.
And this caused the situation that the horses in front agreed to break their sternum and front legs, and their mouths were neighing in pain, and they could only fall to the ground and wait for death.
The other knights were still charging at the enemy, trying to insert their rifles into each other's chests.
The Knights of the Tskema were inferior in numbers, and it was obvious that the battle situation was a little difficult, after all, it was a small fight and a lot, and this gap could not be eliminated.
It was just a round of charge, and the losses of both sides combined were about 400 people, and in this case, as long as the horse fell, there was almost no hope of survival.
After the knights broke their rifles in the first charge, they threw down their broken spears, drew their maces and swords from their waists, and prepared for a tough horseback battle with the enemy.
The war between the cavalry was like this, if it was against the infantry, they would continue to rely on their shock to rush forward until the enemy collapsed.
But both sides are cavalry, and both are war horses, which means that their impact is almost equal, so there is no point in impacting in that way.
In the horseback battle, because the number of knights in the kingdom of Cikma was not as good as the other party, they gradually fell into disadvantage, and there were even many knights who were fighting one against two.
The king of Brolin, because he was too confident, or rather untimely conceited, did not pay attention to the battle situation here, but let a team of sentinels observe for himself, while he himself went to the siege front to supervise the battle.
In this way, just as the army of King Brolin was about to completely occupy the city walls, there was a sudden shout of killing from the rear of the troops.
King Brolin looked around, and an army of absolutely no less than 10,000 men rushed into his camp and began to slash and slaughter, inflicting considerable casualties on the soldiers and a considerable blow to their morale.
