Section 328 Cavalry Tactics

The sound of weapons clashing and the roar of horses neighing were intertwined, and the first wave of impact launched by the knights in fresh clothes and angry horses hit the morale of the Boar Brothers soldiers hard, and the charge of the twenty knights was like a rainbow as if thousands of horses were galloping up, and Grover immediately desperately dispatched soldiers from other companies to support, he knew that if he could not stabilize his position, he was afraid that the light infantry engaged with the knights would break up and flee.

"Launch~~~~." Grover ordered the archers to shoot arrows at the position where the knights and light infantry were fighting, and the arrows fell on the heads of the soldiers at forty-five degrees, and the skilled and experienced knights immediately picked up the pointed shields hanging on the side of the horses, protecting the weak links in the armor, and the arrows not only did not cause damage to the knights, but shot many of the light infantry who were fighting, and seeing that the effect was not obvious, Grover had to make the archers stop shooting.

"Blow the trumpet." Arold picked up a single-hole telescope to see this scene very clearly, and he signaled to Harroun and other standing attendants who had crossed the enemy's right flank, and the dull sound of trumpets was blown through this area of small plains and forests.

"The Earl's signal has arrived, it's time for us to play." Harlan wears a family heirloom iron helmet and chain mail from Mecklenburg, and his smock bears the coat of arms of Arrod's Black Lion, who is also Arold's squire and therefore cannot use his own coat of arms.

"Come on, I can't wait." Osvid had long been gearing up, eager to show his skills on the battlefield, and as Harlan kicked his hip horse, the young heavy cavalry force of twenty men moved, and after three phases of rapid pace, galloping and charging, the squire heavy cavalry burst in from the right flank of Grover's unit, and it was time for Grover to move a company away in order to counter the knightly charge on the left flank. A gap was created between the companies, and it was a good time to charge, but the only threat was a company of swordsmen from the nobles in the flanks and rear.

"Boom~~~~ Gray Law." The heavy cavalry slammed into the flank of the light infantry company like a wild bull, and the light infantry without armor could not resist this fierce attack, and the heavy cavalry cut into the butter like a hot knife.

Little Pine fought on instinct on the bumpy horse, and he trained according to the rigors of his daily life. The horse pistol is tightly clamped under his armpit, the chain mail on his body makes a rope sound in the running of the war horse under the crotch, he wears a long-eared cloth hat filled with cotton wool on his head, the iron helmet is worn on the outside of the hat, the soft hat is to prevent the helmet from rubbing and also plays a certain defensive role, and the neck is like all heavy cavalry wearing cloth pads to protect the skin at the neck from being worn by the chain mail.

"Hmm." Little Pine saw his rifle stab a light infantryman in the head with his own pistol, a black object being swept away by the sharp rifle, and several white bloodshot pieces splashed in his face. Little Pine immediately realized that it was the brain of the fallen light infantryman, and a stream of acid water rushed up his throat, and he turned his head and spat out a few pieces of rabbit meat that he had eaten in the morning, although he had undergone rigorous training, the first killing and this terrifying scene still made little Pine unable to adapt.

"Hold on, my friend, ah~~~." Osvid's carbine assault was immediately discarded with great skill, and the saber at his waist was drawn. Slashed from the right and charged into the ranks of the light infantry. The roaring horses stunned the light infantrymen who had never seen such tall horses, and Osvid's sharp sword slashed at the face of a light infantryman who was close to him, and hot blood splattered onto his robe.

"Oh." Little Pine shook his head, trying to stay awake, he threw away the heavy pistol in his hand, drew his saber and swung it from side to side. After tasting the first blood of the enemy, and after experiencing the initial discomfort, he gradually got used to it.

"The squire did a good job." Arold raised his single-hole binoculars and looked at the heavy cavalry attacking from both sides, although it was the first time for the little squires to go to the battlefield, but with the rigorous training and armor they wore on weekdays, the squires had the upper hand over these ragged light infantry.

"Damned. Sneak attack from behind, and order the swordsmen to resist those stinky boys. Grover, who was hurriedly responding to the knight's attack, suddenly noticed another heavy cavalry attacking from the side, and immediately ordered in a hurry, knowing that with the strength of the light infantry, it would not be possible to stop the attack of the squire, and only the heavy infantry could withstand the attack of the heavy cavalry.

"Go ahead, let the false Earl see the masquerading of the Mason nobles." A company of fifty swordsmen from the nobles, dressed in smocks representing the coats of arms of their respective families, marched with firm and heroic steps, saddling the ancestral sword on their shoulders, and they faced the heavy cavalry of the squire regiment with the confidence of the nobility.

"Kill~~~." Most of the families of the noble children were wealthy, so they could afford heavy equipment such as iron helmets, chain mail or heavy leather armor, they raised the big sword in their hands, opened their legs and rushed to the attendant group, the two sides quickly engaged together, the sword and sword collided with a crisp sound, these noble swordsmen were as skilled as rainbow warfare, and the squire team battle was inseparable.

"Lord Earl, the enemy has dispatched elite troops, what should we do?"

"It's our turn." Arold nodded, although the squire regiment has undergone rigorous training, but after all, it is still a bit hasty to go to the battlefield, in Arold's mind, it belongs to the second-class army, and the elite troops used to entangle the enemy are the most suitable, and the time when the heavy cavalry led by Arold converted from experienced soldiers can attack and give the enemy a thunderous blow.

"Oh~~~~." The heavy cavalry led by Arold himself let out a roar, and followed the black lion banner towards the four hundred light infantry, twenty heavy cavalry straightened their pistols and crashed headlong into the ranks of the already panicked light infantry, these twenty heavy cavalry were experienced soldiers, they immediately let go of their hands and drew their swords after the horse stabbed the enemy, and the roar of the horses and the roar of the cavalry made the light infantry even more frightened.

"Oh, die, die, send me to hell." Arrod's eyes were red with blood, he no longer knew how to slash and kill a few enemies in front of him, he pulled the horse's reins under the crotch to stand up, and kicked the enemies in front of him with both hooves, and the corpses and blood under their feet were already soaked in the ground.

Under the impact of the three heavy cavalry on three sides, the light infantry finally couldn't hold on, they were originally forced to go to the battlefield farmers, in this harsh war environment, looking at the bloody scene next to them and their falling companions, the light infantry began to turn around and flee quietly, seeing that the morale was unstable, the wild boar brothers finally couldn't help but urge the horse forward.

"Don't run away, deserters have only one way to die." Grover stepped forward in a fit of rage, and with a wave of his cross-wing hammer, he smashed the deserter to the ground as it passed by a light infantryman fleeing past him.

"Go back, or I'll pick at your eyes." Ogden drew his sword and stopped the deserters, giggling and saying to the frightened serfs, stopped by the terrible boar brothers, the light infantry had to regroup and plunge into the terrible battlefield again.

"That's not going to work, Zippa give me that little cub and go up and help those fools." Grover looked at the timid light infantry and said to his brother Zipa, who was as tall as a half-iron tower.

"Zippa~~~." A dull and rough voice sounded, Zippa clenched the heavy mace made of pure iron in his hand, and strode towards the battlefield where the heavy cavalry and light infantry led by Arold were entangled, he held the mace with both hands and looked at a heavy cavalry surrounded by four light infantry, the mace with the whirring wind instantly knocked on the head of the cavalry war horse, the war horse didn't even have time to neigh, and the cavalry on his back fell to the ground as soon as he knelt on his legs.

"Ahh The light infantry showed joy in their eyes, and they saw that the heavy cavalry who had been besieged by themselves and others for a long time and could not be killed was actually knocked to the ground by Zipa, and hurriedly pounced on it to prepare to replenish the cavalry's sword, such a feat falling from the sky is rare.

"Ping~~~." But at this moment, the light infantry who pounced on them only felt that something hit them heavily in their waists, and the whole person flew to the side, it turned out that it was Zippa who once again waved his mace to knock away these light infantry in front of him, in Zipa's strong body, the brain accounted for a small proportion, he would only obey Grover's orders, and would not recognize the enemy or the enemy, as long as he stood in front of him, both heavy cavalry and light infantry would be attacked.

"Whoosh~~~." At this moment, the javelin cavalry also rushed over, they threw the javelins in their hands at the entangled light infantry, and saw the opportunity to pull out the scimitar at the waist and attack from the back of the light infantry, this time even the wild boar brothers could not stop the collapse of the light infantry, the sharp scimitar whistled past, the heads of the light infantry fell to the ground in response, and the three light infantry companies fled in large numbers.

"Blow the horn again." Arold watched the light infantry in front of him flee, let the herald of the trumpet blow the horn again, and the last of his heavy cavalry troops appeared, their target was the enemy's commander Boar Brothers, Arold knew that victory could only be achieved by defeating the commander, and at this time the defense of the large group of light infantry guarding the outer layer began to collapse, and this was the best opportunity.

"Boom~~~~~." The last twenty heavy cavalry left behind by Arold crossed the back of the hill, and they heard Arold's signal and immediately launched a final assault towards the position of the Boar Brothers.
