Chapter Fifty-Eight: Rollin's Knight Charge!

The battle in the center of the battlefield has come to an end. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Fifteen hundred legionnaires were not inferior to two thousand heavily armed spearmen. Instead, with its tight formation and tacit cooperation, it constantly inflicts damage on the enemy. On the other hand, Renard's heavy spearmen, although they can also be called regular troops, are not comparable to the legionnaires in terms of training and combat effectiveness.

In the early stage, they were able to suppress the legion infantry by virtue of their numerical superiority, but after the legion infantry formed a phalanx, they lost their offensive nature. Under the resistance of the shield wall, the chaotic gun array could not break the defense of the legionnaires at all, but was pushed back by the legionnaires little by little.

The casualties on both sides could be maintained at the level of 1 to 1 at the beginning, but the further the battle progressed, the battle losses of Rollin's side became higher and higher, and the battle loss ratio gradually became 1 to 2 and 1 to 3.

In the face of such a large difference in the battle loss ratio, the morale of the feudal army, which was not up to the mark, dropped rapidly. When the casualties approached half, they looked at the corpses of their comrades, and the fear and powerlessness in their hearts had overwhelmed their courage.

Retreated!

The remaining more than a thousand hoplites retreated. They simply threw down their weapons, turned around and fled backwards, not daring to face the formidable phalanx of legions at all.

However, just as the legionary infantry was preparing to pursue, the fierce sound of gongs and drums suddenly sounded.

"Huh?"

The squadron leader gasped and looked behind him in confusion. This is the retreat signal of the army. But he has just defeated the opponent's vanguard, so he should pursue it.

Without waiting for the squadron leader to be puzzled for long, the soldier next to him suddenly exclaimed, "Captain! It's cavalry! The enemy knights are rushing over! ”

The squadron leader immediately looked back, and sure enough!

The tall knights lined up in a tight line, and the tall spears were erected, as if a forest had grown on the earth in an instant.

Colorful flags on the spears fluttered and danced in the air, like children cheering before the celebration.

Suddenly, the cavalry moved.

The horse's hooves lifted up and rained down again. Gradually, it converged into a majestic force.

"Formation! Formation! Together! Fast! ”

The squadron leader shouted desperately at the soldiers beside him. He knew very well that the speed of their two feet would never outrun a four-legged cavalry. The only chance of surviving is to rely on a dense array of hard resistance.

"Rush! Charge! ”

Lambert pulled the reins in his left hand and slowly flattened the rifle with his right hand. At the same time, the legs clamped the horse's belly, and the well-trained war horse showed an incomparable tacit understanding, and the speed of cooperation was accelerated, and the sprint began.

Just as a thousand legionary infantry in the field had just formed an array, Lambert's cavalry had reached maximum speed. At this moment, the distance between the two sides is less than 20 meters.

Rumble!

The collision of steel with steel, the collision of flesh with steel. The difference between manpower and the strength of hundreds of catties of war horses is too great. Even in a dense queue, in front of the canned knight of Rollin, he couldn't hold on.

This round of charge, with a thousand knights against a thousand infantry, even if it is Allen's legion infantry, the result is no suspense.

The soldiers in the first row could not be stopped, nor could the second row, the third, the fourth, and until the sixth. In the face of the powerful impact, a thousand legionnaires were directly rushed into a scattered form by the knights. The original formation collapsed in an instant, and the soldiers scurried like headless flies, and then the knights took their heads one by one. Some of the soldiers tried to resist and fought to the death, but their short swords could not reach the knights on horseback, and the javelins could not penetrate their armor at all. In the face of such an enemy, it can only add a touch of tragedy to the war.

"Hahaha! Good! Well done! Kill all these Essisians! Lambert gasped and shouted excitedly.

Before Renard's return, he was the first man under George VI and John, and the head of a group of nobles. His territory is Tuscany in the northern county, which accounts for a quarter of the area of the entire Rollin Kingdom, and can be said to be one of the largest nobles in the Rollin Kingdom.

If it weren't for Renard's return this time, I'm afraid that in the case of George VI's lack of political affairs, it is likely that he would fill John's vacancy and become the first person under the king. Therefore, he attached great importance to this battle, and although Renard guarded himself at every turn, it was absolutely impossible for Lambert to be so willing to succumb to an old man in his fifties and sixties. He just turned 40 this year, and it's a great time for him to make a big difference.

In the face of Alan Ouranos, Lambard has learned the power of Allen. He was in the last battle of Luohe. But Lambert was not afraid of Allen's strength, on the contrary, he felt that Allen's victory was just due to Rollin's ignorance of Allen and his mistakes.

Before the battle began, the knights' first tentative charge gave him confidence. Alan Ouranos is indeed powerful, but Rollin's elite hoplite knight, which is what Alan said about the Tin Can Knight, can also be regarded as a cross between the north and the south. With an excellent record against both barbarians and dwarves, Lambert believed that as long as the knights could accurately charge Eren, they would be able to crush Allen's army in one fell swoop.

"Team up again! Team up! Keep charging! Crush the Essis in one fell swoop! ”

Frembert shouted around as he sent out his knights to regroup the knights who had indulged in killing.

"Keep charging! Rush into the opponent's main formation! ”

Under Frampard's constant urging, the knights gave up the pursuit of the routs and reorganized the array, this time their target was Allen's Chinese army!

"First team! Above! ”

The first team of a thousand heavily armored knights gathered and charged again.

Waiting for them were 2,000 legionary infantry under the leadership of Augustus himself, and 2,000 heavy crossbows under Robin Hood.

"Robin, against these Rollin knights, is your crossbow really useful? You see, not even the javelins of my legionnaires can penetrate their thick armor. ”

Augustus asked Robin Hood solemnly.

Robin Hood said: "Don't worry, general, if it was before, I might not dare to guarantee it." But now I can tell you for sure that our heavy crossbows can penetrate their armor completely! ”

"Is it really that strong?"

"That's right! And the killing range of our new crossbow has also been increased to one hundred and fifty meters! At the same time, we use a new combat platoon launch. I can assure you that when those knights rush in front of us, I can shoot two thousand arrows into a full round! (To be continued.) )
