The Norvids had lost more than 5,000 men in just one round of shooting, and if they had not moved and had gathered more densely, the enemy might have lost 7,000 or 8,000 men in this round of shooting.

However, even so, they created an extremely great deterrent effect on the Norwids, and their offensive momentum suddenly slowed down for a moment, and the archers took advantage of this time to shoot arrows with their bows again.

More than 10,000 arrows flew out, and the enemy again lost more than 2,000 casualties.

After all, someone has already experienced it once, and they have some resistance to the perverted firepower of the army of the Kingdom of Lorik.

At this time, they were not far from the army of the Kingdom of Lorik, and it was estimated that the archers would only be able to fire one more rain of arrows.

After all, there are only three arrows in the battle, this sentence is still very reasonable, not to mention the huge scale of this battle, even if it is necessary to talk about the archers to withdraw to the rear, it will take a long time.

Unlike small-scale battles with hundreds of people, the mobilization of hundreds of combat forces is very convenient, and military orders can be heard as long as they shout.

And now, in this kind of super-large-scale war with nearly 200,000 people on both sides, even if the herald gallops on horseback and gives the order, it will take several minutes.

It was very cumbersome to mobilize, so William had to allow time for the archers to evacuate.

"Archers prepare to evacuate!"

William watched the last round of arrows fired, inflicting more than 2,000 casualties on the enemy, and then said to the herald beside him.

"Archers prepare to evacuate!" The herald beside William began to shout loudly, and the herald farther away shouted as well, and just like that, William's order was passed on by the herald to a distant land.

"Your Majesty has ordered, let's evacuate!"

The commander of the archers and crossbowmen immediately gave the order from the herald who came on horseback and ordered his men to prepare for the evacuation.

"Retreat! Your Majesty has an order! Retreat now! "The orders were passed down by the officers layer by layer, and the archers and crossbowmen began to evacuate in an orderly manner, without any confusion.

When the enemy saw the archers withdraw, he was also happy in his heart, and finally he no longer had to face the enemy's arrow rain.

They had lost nearly 10,000 men in just three minutes, and they had not even touched a single hair of the army of the Kingdom of Lorik, so they lost 20,000 men.

The Norweed regular army at the front also suffered a lot of losses, but after all, they were wearing double chain mail, and the damage caused to them by the arrows was not particularly large, and they could only be fatal with an arrow within a range of about 100 meters.

What really killed them was the perverted pulley crossbow with a range of 500 meters.

After the archers left, the royal infantry became even more nervous, knowing that the real hand-to-hand combat between the two sides was about to begin.

Although there are many veterans and they have good battlefield experience, after all, the enemy is indeed tall and powerful, and it is much more difficult to deal with than their previous enemies.

Coupled with the fact that there were many more recruits in the royal infantry, they had never faced such a formidable enemy.

Even if some soldiers had fought during the militia period, it was just some bandit suppression mission, and William gave it to them in order to temper them, and they did it well.

But the Norwid warriors are different, they are not comparable to the bandits who claimed to be nobles when they occupied a mountain, and their combat effectiveness is definitely the top group of people in the world.

Their strong bodies give them unparalleled combat effectiveness, and they are not trained as systematically and brutally as the army of the Kingdom of Lorik, but their combat effectiveness is still extremely strong.

Even the royal infantry who have been trained for a long time can hardly defeat each other in a one-on-one situation.

Therefore, this war must be fought by lions and rabbits with all their might, not to mention that the enemy is not a weak rabbit, but a brown bear as strong as them.

The recruits were getting shorter and shorter, and even after years of training, plus four months of training in the army, they couldn't help but be a little nervous.

After all, it was such a big scene, it was impossible not to be nervous, even some veterans, their palms were slightly oozing with sweat.

However, this was absorbed by the cotton gloves lined with the iron gloves and gauntlets they carried, and they were also a little nervous, they had fought the Norwids, and knew that the next battle would not be easy.

Finally, the vanguard of the Norvids, their regular army, rushed into the ranks of the army of the Kingdom of Lorik with great strength and speed.

The sword and shield infantry in the front row had already put their shields on the ground, and the pikemen in the back also carried their spears on their shoulders.

The Norweed regulars were killed by several spears before they could touch the sword and shield infantry, but that was all, they slowed down the enemy's onslaught, but they could not completely eliminate their speed.

The Norweed regular army behind them still rushed forward quickly, and they rushed towards the army of the Kingdom of Lorik with their round shields in this way.

Many of the sword and shield infantry had been hit or killed, and the pikemen in the back kept stabbing their spears out of the water, and the enemy was killed without the ability to resist with several spears.

William looked at the battle situation at this time, and the two sides suffered casualties on each other, narrowed his eyes, and then said to the herald next to him: "The light cavalry is harassing and firing on the enemy's flanks, and if necessary, you can charge the formation and cause a riot, but definitely don't get caught in the enemy group!" ”

The herald rode out of here, and if such a long order had been given in the same way as before, it might have been worn out beyond recognition.

If such a thing happened on the battlefield, it would be absolutely devastating, so the herald went to give the order himself.

As soon as he received the order, he sprang into action, and the six thousand light cavalry divided into a dozen points and began to harass the Norvids in all directions.

They either shoot from a distance, or make a charging gesture and make a sharp turn, so that the opponent's defense is missed.

And when they were really not on guard against the hussars, they would go close and slash them, and by the time the enemy was on guard again, they were already gone.

In this way, the repeated actions of the light cavalry made the Norwids tireless, they had no cavalry and no strong archers, so they were completely helpless against the light cavalry, and could only let them come and go freely.

The battle between the two sides was very fierce, the combat effectiveness of the Norvid warriors was extremely strong, while the army of the Kingdom of Lorik was in a strict formation, and its strength was only slightly inferior to the enemy.

On the whole, the difference in casualties between the two sides is not particularly large, and it is only a small difference.
