Chapter 46: Heavy Rain

When Herman's cavalry arrived, the end of the Vikings came. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 The cavalry of the Info Klose family, after bypassing the soldiers on their right flank, took out all the remaining Vikings with a perfect giant roundabout charge, and whether these Vikings went to heaven or their Valhalla is not something that mortals can know.

After dealing with the Vikings, the heavy cavalry unit did not rush back to its main position to regain its horsepower, but turned around and rushed to the wide area further to the right under the leadership of one of the knights and began to monitor Andy, who had rushed to the front of the Orton army.

Andy's men marched very fast, and when he reached the front of the line, he was just in time to see the last Viking warrior crucified to the ground with a javelin by one of the Klose family cavalry. Looking at this elite cavalry, Andy took a breath of cold air and immediately ordered his men to deploy along the flanks of the Brave Mercenary Group to prevent the sudden attack of this cavalry.

However, the cavalry of the Klose family did not want to take advantage of Andy's initial arrival to gain a stable foothold, but just stood at a very far distance and kept changing their positions to monitor the every move of the Orton family's army, as long as they did not retreat, then Andy had to leave a team of people to guard against them; Anyway, the number of cavalry of the Orton family is very small, and Herman is not afraid that this cavalry will be wiped out if he stays outside, and Herman is ready to show his cavalry advantage thoroughly.

"Well done." Caroline was stunned when she saw Andy with his men, because Andy's unit was too visually striking on the outside, and they were marching fast, so it was clear from this that they must be a tricky unit. But now they're half gone, and the mere mere standing there and watching the cavalry sent by Herman made Andy shrink.

"Of course, the commander of that cavalry is Edbed. His father sent him out to find an opportunity to attack the Orton family. Rudolph was not slow to react militarily, and naturally praised Edbed after hearing Carolan's admiration, and Rudolph did not skimp on his praise in this regard.

This shows what a good mid-level commander can mean to the army of this era, and if a mediocre officer, he is likely to return to his home after eliminating the Vikings, then this gives Andy an opportunity. Even if Carolan and the others were standing in the rear, they would have thought of this method, but it would be too slow for them to send a herald to let Edbede and them return to the right flank to contain Andy, so after Adebede had done the most correct thing himself, it was the perfect way to send someone back to ask Herman.

Sure enough, after seeing the herald sent by Edbed rush back, Herman did not let people recall Edbed, but instead sent more cavalry to support them, so that Edbed could use more leverage to contain Andy.

In this way, Andy, who originally planned to rely on the opportunity of the Vikings to attack the Klose family army, was nailed to the left flank by Edbede, and did not dare to act rashly, and even if Herman continued to send reinforcements to Edbed, Richard not only could not rely on Andy to turn the tide of the war, but also had to send other elite troops to Andy to assist him. The Vikings' impulsiveness completely destroyed the strategic initiative of the Orton family, and for now, neither Andy nor Richard could ignore the danger of a cavalry breaking through from the flank and throw all their forces into the frontal battle.

Andy was very irritated now, because the cavalry had been following him closely outside the range of his bow and arrow, and the commander of the cavalry would advance towards the rear of the Orton army and act as if he was about to attack every time he wanted to leave his men and go to the front of the battle to observe the Klose army, which made Andy not dare to leave his men at all.

"Worthy of Herman." This game between Richard and Herman was a big win for Herman, and everyone in the audience silently made this decision in their hearts. The loss of Vikings is actually nothing, not to mention that the Klose family also suffered a lot of casualties in order to eliminate this group of Viking warriors, but before the official battle, the Orton family has an absolute advantage in numbers but loses the strategic initiative, which is the real defeat.

"Damn Richard, what's going to happen next." Eberhard, the heir to the Duke of Bavaria, was also a sophisticated commander, or rather, almost all the tribal nobles of the era were military commanders; When he saw this scene, he immediately burst into foul language, the cavalry of the Klose family accounted for the majority, and they had an innate advantage in tactics, and now this made the Orton family have to fight according to the will of the Klose family, because they had no choice at all. Should the Orton choose to adjust their strategy, the harassment that occurred during the transfer of the army would help the Klose cavalry send everyone to heaven.

“。。。。 Everything is God's direction. Reding opened his mouth to say something, but as if interrupted by something, he touched his face and looked up at the sky for a moment before he said something that seemed to mean something.

"God? What do you mean, Ledeen. Eberhard was naturally confused by Leiding's words, and when he was about to ask what Leiding meant, he seemed to feel something and looked up at the sky.

"Yes, the will of God." Redin and Eberhard were silent for a moment before speaking at the same time, but Redin smiled a little sly as he finished speaking. Eberhard smiled a little cruelly as he finished speaking.

After a period of trekking, the brave mercenary group, which had suffered from the harassment of bows and arrows, finally rushed to the front of the Klose family. With the order of the regiment commander, a group of heavily armored samurai walked out of the ranks of the mercenary group, this group of samurai was larger than the rest of the mercenary group even in appearance, and then walked to the front of the line under the order of the regiment commander and began to prepare for the final charge. Obviously, the brave mercenary group can't stand the baptism of bows and arrows of the Klose family a little, and is ready to rely on the most elite warriors to directly attack the Klose family's army and drag the battlefield into hand-to-hand combat, as long as the two armies fall into hand-to-hand combat, then the archers of the Klose family will definitely not wash the ground with bows and arrows like now, after all, accidental injury is super demoralizing, and mature armies will not make such low-level mistakes.

"Damn it, Captain of the Guard, you take a hundred guards over to the right flank to be Warlords! Drive the herd forward! Let them entangle the left flank of the Klose family as the mercenary group charges! Richard, who had been silently observing the overall situation, soon discovered the problem of his right flank, when the Brave Mercenary Regiment was only a little demoralized because of the bow and arrow attack, the militias on the right wing of the Orton family army were already a little about to collapse, and even some militiamen who seemed to be more clever quietly pulled to the back of the team and were ready to flee at any time. However, this group of poor fellows probably can't escape, and a group of Overseers armed to the teeth have appeared behind them, and they will force this group of cannon fodder to step forward and entangle the left flank of the Klose family with blood and life, preventing the Klose family from opening the battle from the left flank.

"Warriors! Crush them! After the victory, we will get gold that can buy the whole of Ruktor! We will return home with glory and wealth! After speaking, the commander of the Brave Mercenary Regiment pulled out the Italian long sword at his waist and waved it violently, asking the whole army to prepare for hand-to-hand combat.

"Defensive formation! Get ready to throw a spear! Heinrich naturally made a relative countermeasure, preparing to meet and shoot a spear first.

The Orton family is also extremely well prepared for this battle, the elite armor of the Brave Mercenary Group is extremely good, and some people seem to be wearing multiple armor, specially used to impact the Klose family formation. I don't know what the leader of the Brave Mercenary Regiment and these soldiers promised, but after they finished the whole team, they rushed towards the main formation of the Klose family army with high morale.

Because these warriors were all death squads specially designed to break through the formation, in addition to the usual chain mail, they didn't know where to get a set of scale armor, and even wore thick linen clothes inside, and then held a huge shield with a collision point. This equipment to some extent ensures that they are almost invulnerable to bows and spears as long as they are not hit by any vital points.

This group of warriors deserves to be the best warriors of the Brave Mercenary Group, and with this equipment, after some struggle, they quickly squeezed a gap in the Klose family's military formation. No way, they are too well equipped, and it is difficult for the first row of warriors with giant shields to inflict any substantial damage on them. Even if you don't pay attention to it, you will be put away by them with a short sword. After all, there are not many warriors with the same armor as them.

"Haha! The Klose family can't stand it! All the army is attacking! Crush them! Seeing the results of his warriors, the commander of the Brave Mercenary Regiment decisively mobilized the whole army to press, maintain the pressure on the Klose family's army, and finally strive to crush them in hand-to-hand combat.

“。。。 The armor-piercing infantry attacked and knocked the turtles to their stomachs. Heinrich naturally discovered the threat of this group of elite hoplites a long time ago, but in the face of such fighters, ordinary soldiers are really difficult to contend with them. If you purely order the front-line soldiers to besiege and kill, not to mention whether you can surround and kill this group of elites, let's just say that the lives to be sacrificed to besiege and kill this group of soldiers are not something that the Klose family can bear, and unlike the Orton family, the soldiers of the Klose family who go to the battlefield today are all children of the Klose family. So Heinrich waited until the group of warriors had penetrated deep into the Klose family army before sending out two-handed heavy infantry units armed with armor-piercing weapons.

Such heavy armoured troops must be armed with armor-piercing weapons such as two-handed axes and two-handed hammers, and ordinary bladed weapons cannot break through their heavy armor, only these murder weapons that can kill enemies by weight alone can kill these enemies.

With the addition of the armor-breaking force sent by Heinrich, all the warriors of these brave mercenary groups were finally wiped out. Yes, the warriors, perhaps with the encouragement of money, Carolan prefers to believe that it is with the encouragement of honor that this group of warriors fought to the last moment. With the death of this group of warriors, the Klose family army stabilized its position, and relied on its superior fighting qualities to effectively kill and injure the Orton family army.

As the damage of the Orton family army began to increase, Richard began to get anxious, and then began to look for other opportunities to break the deadlock on the battlefield, after all, if this was consumed, even if they had a numerical advantage, the collapse of the Orton family army would be in the blink of an eye.

The militia on the right wing can't be counted on at all, even if they reluctantly exchange fire with the Klose family under the coercion of the overseer, but in terms of their quality, let alone killing and injuring the Klose family soldiers, some Klose warriors can't bear to kill and kill, and they can't help but be a little softer.

Andy on the left flank was firmly crucified by Edbed's cavalry and did not dare to move, and now Richard only has his own guard in his hands, a reserve, if this force is put into the battle and the situation does not improve, then the Orton family can be said to have lost this time.

"Damn! Captain of the Guard! No matter how worried he would be able to deal with the main cavalry force of the Klose family without mobile forces after the guards were dispatched, Richard decided to send his last troops to fight for his life.

Just then, there was an explosion in the sky, and then heavy rain poured down!

"Opportunity! God is on us. After reacting to this sudden heavy rain, Richard and Andy were ecstatic!
