Chapter 207: The Fate of the World (15)
Ironclad cavalry galloping.
Clusters of stones are flying.
The speed of both of them seems to be slow, however, they collide violently!
No matter which time and space, which region it is, it must abide by the physical laws of this world.
While! While! While!
The fist-sized stone easily knocked the ironclad cavalry off the horse, and it can be said that as long as it is rubbed to a point, it is a heavy injury, not to mention that it is right in the body.
Of course, even if you hit the war horse, the war horse will do the same.
The entire front row of the ironclad cavalry was smashed by the flying stones, and the fall of their cavalry or even the men and horses fell to the ground, causing the teammates who followed closely behind to suffer secondary injuries!
If you get too close, even if you dodge the first blow, you will directly trip over your teammates in front of you...... They're just in the speed up phase, and there's no way to slow it down right away!
The combat effectiveness of the ironclad cavalry mainly depends on the impact force, and without it, their lethality is reduced by half.
There were some lucky cavalrymen who dodged the first blow and also dodged the second damage from their teammates...... However, they lose their greatest reliance: speed.
Taking advantage of the confusion of the ironclad cavalry, the crossbowmen, with the help of donkeys, finally completed another winding.
"Waste!"
"Suddenly!" "Suddenly!" "Suddenly!"
Once again, all the bolts were fired at the 3rd Infantry Regiment of England!
This time they didn't kill the longbowmen, but instead targeted the ironclad cavalry...... The cavalrymen, who were in the midst of the confusion, were shot by crossbow arrows.
Due to the straight flight path of the crossbow arrows, the cavalrymen who were shot were carried off their horses directly by the crossbow arrows...... What's even more terrifying is that a crossbow arrow the thickness of a child's arm actually pierced two ironclad cavalry at once.
Immediately afterward, the second round of stone artillery was fired...... This time the effect was not as good as the first, because the remaining ironclad cavalry had already turned and fled, and the two unexpected blows completely frightened them!
There was some commotion in the armored infantry of the 3rd Army of England...... The Scottish coalition began to rejoice.
Once again, Duke Robert the Bruce took a hard look at the strange stone cannons...... When he observed the second firing of the stone cannon, he understood exactly how it worked.
Ah, why don't you make it bigger and hit farther?!
But the situation is no longer the same as before, giving everyone plenty of time to fight slowly and leisurely.
William Wallace pointed diagonally at his two-handed longsword and shouted, "For Scotland!" For freedom! Rush to kill! ”
He took the lead in the assault...... The peasant rebels behind him screamed and charged with him!
Whether it's the Scots or the English, that's what they do best...... William Wallace also had to play this way in the end:
The Flower of Freedom must be irrigated with blood to bloom!
At the sound of trombones, the English armored soldiers also sorted...... However, they were definitely not as resolute as the Scottish peasant army, because they did not know what terrible weapons would appear on the other side!
Two armies of tens of thousands of people began to hedge, and when they looked down from above, the two sides were like two torrents, about to collide together!
It's a shocking scene!!
Even Duke Robert the Bruce's war horse was excited, and it began to spin...... Duke Robert the Bruce was so excited that he tried his best to reassure his horse.
The situation is now in favor of the Scots!
He quickly drew his sword, raised it high, and shouted in the same way as William Wallace: "For Scotland!" For freedom! Rush to kill! ”
When the other nobles saw this scene, they immediately followed suit...... They could all smell victory on the battlefield, and their privates were infected by the rags-clad peasant rebels.
For Scotland! For freedom!
The 3rd Infantry Regiment of England received an unprecedented blow...... One by one, their armored infantry fell to the ground!
Of course, many fell in the Scottish coalition.
William Wallace on the battlefield was already covered in blood, and he swung his two-handed sword and slashed his enemies non-stop.
Beside him, the old Walker father and son and Olibi Populan swung their axes and steel forks to protect his flanks...... They had formed a small warband, picking up the enemies they encountered one by one, but they themselves were not damaged in the slightest.
However, Old Walker broke away from the small warband and went to challenge the enemy alone...... Unfortunately, one of his hands was cut off by the enemy!
The screams and the clashing of weapons seemed to fill the entire sky, the whole world.
The generals of the 3rd Infantry Regiment of England understood the whole situation, and they were completely defeated!
He gave the order to retreat!
Ah, we defeated the regular army of England!!
All the Scots, nobles and peasants, they were all boiling!!
William Wallace wiped the blood from his face and smiled with relief...... He also continued to stop the peasant rebels from killing and wounding prisoners.
In the evening, many Scottish women searched for dead relatives on the battlefield, and they kept looking at the corpses...... If you find it, you kneel there and weep, and the whole field always seems to hear the cry of sorrow.
At this time, the cheerful Scottish bagpipes were played in the camp, and most of the people in the camp sat around the campfires.
William Wallace was also sitting by a campfire, contemplating his next move.
Victory in the first battle was important, but it was far from a sign that they could defeat the invincible long-legged Edward.
Not to mention the navy and cavalry, an infantry regiment like this, there were seven more long-legged Edwards!
They relied on two extremely advanced weapons to achieve victory, so will the next war still have such a big effect?!
More importantly, what's next...... Fighting is not the only condition for final victory.
An old blues dedicated room in Bruceburg.
Old Bruce calmly listened to Duke Robert the Bruce's description, and he was not in the least impressed by his son's passion.
It seemed like an easy victory...... The army of peasants did not seem to suffer much damage.
Bruce Sr. praised his son in a quiet way: "You are glad to see the favorable situation on the battlefield and to be able to take the lead, my son, you have experience in military command...... You can become the leader of the aristocracy. ”
Duke Robert the Bruce couldn't explain it, but he still had a little impulse at the time.
Old Bruce said calmly, "Edward Longleg should have the patience to listen to us and talk about his conditions......"
Duke Robert the Bruce frowned and said, "We're going to negotiate with them now?!" Can't we take the opportunity to take York Town and then talk about it?! ”
"My son, you have to know how to learn moderation...... You can hurt Edward Longleg, but you can't tear his face. ”
Duke Robert the Bruce bowed his head and remained silent.
"My son, I've already sent someone to London...... You want to control the entire Scottish coalition, you want to control that William Wallace, and the power that is not in our hands should not exist in Scotland. ”
The conference room in Bruceburg.
The nobles and nobles quarreled again, and there were all kinds of references.
Duke Robert the Bruce had a headache, and sometimes victory was more troublesome than defeat.
