"Heavy Iron Rider?" Diodemir was shocked, he had a great fear of the heavy armored iron cavalry, twelve years ago when he was only in his twenties, he and his father Valamir followed Attila to attack the Gallic region of the Western Roman Empire, and saw the power of the iron armored heavy cavalry in the Battle of Chalon, and over the years he has often heard how terrifying the heavy armored cavalry of the Great Qin Empire is, and now after seeing this Great Qin heavy armored cavalry in front of him, he feels much more terrifying than the heavy armored cavalry of the Visigothic Kingdom, After all, the Visigothic Kingdom is small in size, has a small population, and has limited resources, so the equipment and weapons of the heavy armored cavalry created by the Visigothic Kingdom cannot be compared with the heavy armored cavalry equipment created by the Great Qin Empire, which has a large land and a large number of people and a strong national strength.

The brave wins when they meet on the narrow road, and it is impossible to evacuate at this time, evacuation is equivalent to complete defeat, it is equal to destruction, and it is almost impossible to turn around and evacuate on this high-speed sprint battlefield, so the only way to fight to the death with the Qin army is to fight to the death.

"Kill—" Diodmir let out a loud roar, and the generals and soldiers behind him shouted loudly.

When the Qin army's archers and cavalry separated from the two wings just now, Qin Dong did not go around together, but slowed down his horse and waited for the heavy armored cavalry regiment behind, and after the heavy armored cavalry regiment rushed up, he immediately maintained the same speed with the heavy armored cavalry regiment and killed the Ostrogothic cavalry that rushed over on the opposite side.

Qin Dong was wearing golden armor very eye-catching, although Diodemir didn't know him and hadn't seen him, but from the sound of golden armor, it was determined that it was Qin Dong. Against the Qin Army's Iron Cavalry, Dio Demir was not sure of victory. The only way to win is to capture the thief and capture the king first, and shoot the man before the horse, although he did not know that there was such a poem, but he also understood such a truth. Therefore, he set his eyes on Qin Dong, thinking that as long as he killed or captured Qin Dong, he would win the battle, so he hit his horse and rushed straight towards Qin Dong.

A horse came at him from the diagonal side, which attracted Qin Dong's attention, Diordemir's figure is also very burly, and he has been used to being a tribal leader over the years. Naturally, there was a momentum of a superior person on his body, Qin Dong was very sensitive, and he shouted when he was still far away: "Diodemir? ”

"It's King Ben!" Diodemir confessed his identity with a single face. In his opinion, showing his name in front of the enemy is a kind of respect for the enemy, and it is also a cheer for himself and himself.

After answering, Diodmir shouted loudly: "Qin Dong, go and die!" Kill—"

The speed at which the cavalry charged each other was very fast, and the two were still far apart just now. But it only took two words to go head-to-head. "When, when!"

"Ahh In the third move, he was swept in the back by Qin Dong's three-pointed two-edged knife, fell off the horse, and did not know whether he was alive or dead.

Qin Dong swept Dior Demir off the horse with a backhand, and then didn't care anymore. He continued to charge forward, and the Ostrogothic cavalry rushing on the opposite side was chopped left and right by him and fell off his horse, and the heavy armored cavalry behind him also rushed into the Ostrogothic cavalry formation with him.

This was a sign of the incomparable weight of the heavy cavalry in the short sprint, and the Ostrogothic cavalry was knocked to the ground. Because the cavalry's sprint speed is too fast, so each cavalry basically only has one chance to hit the opponent, and only the chest area is the largest in the body parts, and it is also a very easy part to die after being hit hard, so basically the first reaction of the cavalry is to attack the opponent's chest position, and the chest of the Qin army's iron cavalry has heavy armor, and it is not a divine weapon that cannot break through its defenses at all, so the Ostrogothic cavalry is almost difficult to cause fatal damage to the Great Qin heavy armored cavalry.

In the case of a blow that cannot kill the opponent, it will inevitably be killed by the opponent's companions in the rear, the spear array of the Qin army's iron cavalry is too dense, and the spear tips of the spear array are all to the right front, so that there is basically no gap when the cavalry cluster charges, even if the enemy can dodge the spear assassination of the first row, the second row, and the third row, it is impossible to dodge the spear rush of the many rows behind, unless it is a highly skilled leading general, the average soldier is very unlikely to survive such a dense cavalry cluster charge.

The phalanx of the heavy armored cavalry regiment plowed the cavalry phalanx of the Ostrogoths and the chaotic infantry phalanx to a huge iron plow, the Ostrogoths suffered heavy casualties in both cavalry and infantry, and after the phalanx of the heavy armored cavalry regiment of the Qin army sprinted, the Ostrogoths were completely frightened, and the Ostrogoths, who were originally 30,000 horses, lost more than half of them in this charge, and killed more than 5,000 people in direct battle.

That's not all, the archers who made a detour on both flanks did not stop attacking, they kept opening their bows and shooting the sideways Ostrogothic cavalry and infantry, of course, the Ostrogoths could not bear the situation of being beaten passively, their archers began to fight back, and many Ostrogothic infantry broke away from the formation of protecting the archers and turned around and rushed to the left and right flanks to chase and kill the archers of the Qin army, how could the infantry catch up with the archers? This is purely an act of seeking death.

The Qin archers retreated and shot the pursuing infantry until they had shot all the pursuing Ostrogothic infantry and returned to continue harassing the soldiers who shot the Ostrogothic formation.

In the Ostrogothic army array, because the infantry protecting the archers went to chase and kill the Qin army's archers, their own archers were unprotected, and at the same time, the dense range of the army formation became sparse, and the Qin army's heavy armored cavalry regiment, which had just penetrated the Ostrogothic cavalry formation, continued to rush forward to kill, and the Ostrogothic archers phalanx, which had lost the protection of the dense infantry phalanx, was exposed to the incomparably strong man of the Great Qin Heavy Armored Cavalry Regiment like a girl who had stripped off her clothes.

The cavalrymen of the Qin army's heavy cavalry regiment pierced the bodies of those Ostrogothic archers with their riding spears like poking tofu, how easy and graceful the action was, and they strung the corpses of the Ostrogoths on the spears, like a bamboo skewer with a lamb skewer.

When the second wave of the Qin army's attack was not yet completed, the third wave of attack had already arrived, and the heavy cavalry regiment was followed by the light cavalry regiment, and the cavalry of the light cavalry regiment held their snow swords to kill the Ostrogoths who had already lost their phalanx and gathered alone or a few or a dozen or a dozen people.

After being charged by the heavy cavalry regiment, the Ostrogoths had no military formation, and the battlefield was full of Ostrogoths, who fought alone, or in groups of three or five, or in a small phalanx, but at this time they had already lost the courage to fight, and they only wanted to leave here completely.

Seeing that another light cavalry of more than 3,000 people came to kill, those remaining Ostrogothic cavalry no longer had the heart to fight, they immediately beat their horses and turned around and fled, Diodmir did not know whether he was alive or dead, and there was no one to command on the Ostrogoths' side, so when would they not flee at this time?

Hordes of Ostrogothic cavalry began to flee from the gaps in the battlefield, they rode horses, fast, and the chances of escaping were much greater than the infantry, in terms of numbers, the Ostrogoths totaled more than 30,000 people, nearly twice as many as the Great Qin cavalry division that participated in the battle this time, so when these remnants of more than 4,000 cavalry fled, the Qin cavalry did not pursue, because there were more Ostrogothic infantry waiting for them to pursue and capture.

It is not too difficult for 12,000 cavalry to defeat an army of more than 30,000 infantry and cavalry head-on, at least Qin Dong has done this, in fact, Qin Dong also took advantage of the shortcomings of Diodemir's lack of information, and killed Diodemir by surprise.

In this battle, Qin Dong did not give Dior Demir enough time to set up the formation, so he opened the city gate and led the cavalry to kill, and then wave after wave of attacks did not stop, and he cut down Dio Demir and made the Ostrogoths lose their main command, so the Ostrogoths would be defeated so quickly.

If Diodmir is more cautious, and then advances in the direction of the city wall after the general formation is complete, the heavy infantry is arranged in front of the formation, the cavalry protects the two wings, the archers are arranged in the formation, and then the light infantry is arranged in the rear, it is basically very difficult for Qin Dong to disrupt the Ostrogoths' military formation, after all, the Ostrogoths have an absolute advantage in terms of strength, and the impact of the heavy infantry to resist the heavy cavalry is the most suitable in the Ostrogoths army at this time, and other arms cannot resist the front of the heavy cavalry, If the heavy infantry phalanx is arranged thick enough, it is a question whether the heavy cavalry of the Qin army can break through the heavy infantry phalanx of the Ostrogoths, let alone defeat the Ostrogoths, once the heavy cavalry loses the power to charge and falls into the middle of the heavy infantry phalanx of the Ostrogoths, it will be a dead end.

After leading the heavy cavalry regiment to kill the Ostrogoths' military formation, at this time the heavy cavalry's horses were already out of breath and sweating profusely, but they were afraid that they would not be able to fight again, Qin Dong turned his horse and saw that the remnants of the Ostrogoths began to flee, and the infantry were scurrying around on the battlefield, knowing that the defeat of the Ostrogoths was decided.

At this time, Zheli, who was holding the command on the city tower, immediately ordered the whole army to pursue and kill the enemy, and the horn of chasing and killing the enemy sounded, and the archers and light cavalry began to pursue and kill the Ostrogoths, and even the crossbow cavalry who had just come out of the city followed, and the heavy cavalry began to assemble back to the city after a short rest, and the rest of the aftermath was handed over to the infantry to deal with.

When Qin Dong returned to the city, he deliberately explained that he wanted to find Dio Demir, whether he was dead or alive, he wanted to see people alive, and he wanted to see corpses when he died!

The remnants of more than 4,000 cavalry of the Ostrogoths fled, and only a few infantry ran into the dense mountain forest, and it is unknown whether they could survive, and all the remaining Ostrogothic infantry who were still alive were basically captured, with a total of 14,000 prisoners and more than 4,000 wounded.

Diordemir's body was found, and with the exception of his head, which was still intact, his body had been trampled by the horse's hooves during the battle, and was almost a puddle of flesh.

The death of Diodemir means that the Ostrogoths have lost their leader, which is definitely not good news for the Ostrogoths who have just occupied Illyria, not to mention that the 100,000 iron horsemen of the Great Qin Empire have already occupied Shamat and can go south at any time, and the survival environment of the Ostrogoths is facing an extremely severe test.
