Chapter 226: Captured
The sun gradually rises in the east, and the light of the rising sun spreads all over the earth, sprinkling light all over the world, but contrary to the wonderful scene at this time, the blood splatters everywhere on the ground, and the severed limbs and broken arms scattered everywhere.
The contrast between the Asura Hell and the Radiant Scene was striking, and if someone could record it at this time, it would be enough to make him famous for eternity.
It's a pity that no one has the ability to have this leisure and leisure, painting on the battlefield.
In the rear of the battle, a fierce battle is also going on, and the Manders infantry are cooperating with the militia to outflank the enemy knights.
"Damn it! Get out of my way! I must not be captured by the enemy here! ”
Viscount Serindil spoke in an impatient tone, danced with the sword in his hand, and ordered his knights to keep attacking the rear, hoping that they would break through a way.
But at this time, their space has been gradually compressed, and the space between the war horses is also very narrow, so it is already very difficult for the knights to turn around.
After his order was given, although the knights wanted to carry it out, they could not carry it out at all, so they were still huddled together in the encirclement.
The Mandees infantry and militia were also uncomfortable, more than 120 of the 300 Manders infantry were killed, even if they were seriously injured and disabled, and they could no longer go to the battlefield, there were also more than 50 people, so it can be said that more than half of the 300 people had been lost.
Moreover, the casualties of the Menders infantry who fought the enemy on the frontal battlefield were by no means less, and after the end of the war, the Mendes infantry could be left with 400 men, and William was already thankful.
As for the 500 militiamen he brought out, they also lost nearly 300 men, but the remaining 200 people, with a little training, can serve in the battle sequence as official Mandeesian infantry.
After all, they have been baptized by a war of this scale, and their will to fight, experience, and psychological quality have matured.
As long as they raise their training to the level of the Manders infantry, then they will definitely not be much worse than the veterans!
"Shrink the envelope!" William shouted loudly, delivering his orders, the enemy was all surrounded, and the next thing was to close the net.
Although his army suffered heavy losses, it was all worth it, as long as he could win the war, then he would be the real master of Denlenburg.
Even those nobles who followed him in this war and joined his camp would never dare to have any resistance against him, because the strength of the two sides was not at the same level at all.
"Damn it! We are noble knights! We can be defeated! But there must be no surrender! Fight to the end! ”
Viscount Serindil raised his sword in the air, took off the helmet from his head, threw it on the ground, and shouted loudly in a loud voice.
Although Viscount Serindil was a little short-tempered, it was because he was young and successful, and he was very successful after inheriting his father's title, and as a young man in his twenties, it was normal to be short-tempered.
However, his talent is undoubted, and at the same time, as a nobleman, the glory of a knight is also very important to him.
Therefore, even if he dies on the battlefield, he will never surrender to the enemy.
The knights were encouraged, shouted loudly, and swung their swords and maces at their enemies.
There are also many knights who jump off their horses, drag their slightly heavy armor, and engage in foot combat with the enemy with weapons because they have no effect after losing their horse speed.
In addition to riding and horseback combat, the knights' training was also very important, so they were very strong even in foot combat.
So at this time, after jumping off the war horse, not only did they not fall into a greater disadvantage, but they actually had a tendency to successfully break through.
Neither the Manders infantry nor the militia were opponents of the knights, and although it was impossible to say that they could cut melons and vegetables, it was true that they could not be stopped.
William frowned and watched as the remaining twenty or so knights in the field slaughtered in all directions, after this group of knights dismounted and fought, more than twenty Manders infantry and more than fifty militiamen had fallen.
It is not a way to go on like this, and even if you succeed in completely destroying the enemy, your own losses will definitely not be small.
Now the reason why the Manders infantry were defeated by the enemy knights in this way was mainly because their formation was out of order, and after the encirclement, they abandoned the formation and began to fight on their own.
Otherwise, with the physical fitness of the Menders infantry, which was not inferior to the knights, how could they be so embarrassed by the enemy knights.
"Manders infantry! Array of triangles! William waved the sword in his hand and said to the soldiers in battle.
And the officers of the squad also realized that something was wrong for a long time, and wanted to start the formation of the squad for a long time, but they did not receive orders, according to the provisions of the Menders military law, no one was allowed to give orders to transfer soldiers without instructions from their superiors.
In addition, the Manders military law was extremely highly enforceable in the army, so that no officer or sergeant dared to give orders.
However, after obtaining William's permission, the column commanders asked the flag bearers around them to wave the military flag in their hands, and the military flag was able to give orders.
After waving the military flag, the officers blew the wooden whistle in their hands, and then issued a combat order for the triangular array, which is not complicated, that is, the three people they often train to fight together.
This formation is very useful when it comes to dispersed operations, and is far from being comparable to the phalanxes of large-scale group operations.
The execution of the Manders infantry was extremely strong, and in less than a minute, they had set up a triangular formation, and the three triangular formations formed a large triangular formation.
This is a basic combat sequence, team!
They can be present anywhere, perform any mission, and if the column commander needs to, the pair of triangles may also be combined with other teams to form a larger triangle.
Sure enough, after forming a formation, the offensive of the enemy knights was slowed down, and although the militia was a little different from the Manders infantry, they also quickly formed a triangular formation, which was also their training formation.
After they formed a triangular formation, the counterattack of the enemy knights was obviously much easier, and the two sides began to stalemate.
Soon, however, most of the enemy knights were killed through the armor or knocked unconscious, and only four men were left standing in the encirclement, including Viscount Serindil.
The Manders stopped attacking, after all, the four men could no longer pose any threat.
William rode his horse to the outside of the encirclement, and the soldiers gave way one after another.
William walked in along the road, glanced at the Viscount of Serindil in the center for a while, and said: "Surrender, Viscount Serindil, I will promise to give you the treatment that matches your status, and at the same time, I will not insult the honor that belongs to you, give up resistance!" ”
