It was the Praetorian Guard's tiger and leopard riders and dragon blood warriors who raided the Melbourne army.

After landing on the outskirts of Sydney, the two cavalry legions made a detour through the wilderness, bypassing the royal city of Canberra at a wind-like speed, and finally delivering a fatal blow before the Melbourne army reached the royal city.

The tactics adopted by the Great Xia Jingqi this time are still long-distance attacks in the traditional sense, and there is nothing eye-catching.

It's just such a tactic, and it always succeeds.

The Janissaries' long-distance tactics worked every time, certainly not accidentally. A Praetorian Guard, under the training of Huo Quzhi, the commander who is best at cavalry warfare, has long been implanted with the gene of long-distance running.

How to step on points, how to cover, how to march, and even how to find water sources, there are a set of effective methods, which is why there is a legend of the Praetorian Guard.

Second, the strong territorial characteristics of the Great Xia Dynasty endowed the cavalry with endurance and speed beyond common sense, as if it had become the most elite cavalry in the world, and became the capital of the Great Xia to dominate the world.

The combination of two factors created the legend of the Praetorian Guard.

Back to the battlefield.

In the face of the combined surprise attack of the Tiger and Leopard Riders and the Dragon's Blood War Cavalry, the Melbourne army was neither prepared nor parried to attack. After the success of the raid, how to quickly expand the results of the battle, the Praetorian Guard also has a set of tactics within the army.

The Praetorian Guards first took advantage of the agility of the light cavalry to quickly sweep away the outer barriers, and then the heavy cavalry appeared on the stage, brazenly smashing into the enemy's core formation with unrivaled momentum and crushing the enemy's formation.

The rumbling hoplites were like rows of bulldozers with full horsepower, roaring and roaring in the enemy's formation, and no matter how strong the shield array was, it could not stop them in the slightest, and they ran over all the way, which was very terrifying.

The hoplites were followed by the larger light cavalry.

Like the Grim Reaper, they quietly came from the two wings, like driving a flock of sheep, driving away the enemy who was already in disarray, constantly using the strong bow and crossbow in their hands to harvest the enemy's life.

The light and heavy cavalry cooperated tacitly to weave a web of death.

Before the enemy even had time to engage the light cavalry head-on, he had suffered heavy casualties and demoralized. In the face of such an enemy, the officers and men of the Melbourne army were not only helpless, but even more desperate.

Just when their morale was low and they were about to flee, the killing moves of the Great Xia cavalry really showed up.

The Great Xia light cavalry, which was originally gathered together, quickly scattered in all directions with the cavalry brigade as a unit, and took the initiative to kill into the enemy's formation, using the spear and Tang knife in their hands to continuously harvest the enemy's life.

What is even more desperate is that even if they disperse, the cavalry brigades still maintain cooperation with each other.

Either encircle, or send reinforcements, or pursue, or fight head-on, cooperate with each other, and constantly divide the enemy army into small pieces, and then devour them one by one.

In the face of such battles, the less timid can only surrender.

On the outskirts of the battlefield, Avila, the lord of Melbourne, fled in the direction of Canberra under the escort of his own army. Only by returning to the royal city can Avila have a chance of survival.

Finally out of the battlefield, Avila was about to breathe a sigh of relief.

At this moment, the guards next to him exclaimed: "My lord, be careful!" I saw a sharp arrow suddenly burst through the air, and before Avila could react, it shot into Avila's back with a "whoosh" and pierced through the chest.

"Uh~~"

Avila vomited blood from her mouth, could no longer hold the reins, and fell off her horse.

Before the guards could dismount and rescue, Avila had turned into a white light and disappeared into the battlefield, thus unexpectedly ending his journey in the main plane and quietly falling.

I don't know if Avila felt any remorse in her heart the moment she turned into light.

If Avila hadn't listened to Jack and rashly showed the "Iron Restriction Order" to Great Xia, with Ouyang Shuo's original intention, it was not necessarily for Australia to take it, and Avila could live very freely.

Instead of dying, as is the case now, he dies before he gets out of school.

It's a pity that there is no regret medicine in the world, and there is a good saying: "If you come out to mix, sooner or later you will have to pay it back." ”

In the midst of the chaos, the one who accurately shot Avila was the leader of the Dragonblood War Cavalry Legion, the generation of war god Lu Bu. Seeing that the target turned into light, Lu Bu slapped his horse and led his troops to kill.

And with Avila's unexpected death, the Melbourne army lost the last trace of its will to resist.

Even the Javanese army, which had been ordered to come for reinforcements, no longer struggled uselessly under such circumstances, and the survivors very simply chose to surrender, declaring the battle gradually coming to an end.

Towards noon, the battle was drawing to a close.

In addition to more than 10,000 soldiers who escaped by chance, the 200,000-strong army was killed by the Great Xia guards, killing more than 60,000 people and capturing nearly 130,000, which can be described as a complete victory.

At the end of the war, the Great Xia Janissaries did not rush to attack Melbourne, but escorted the prisoners of war and slowly rushed towards the royal city of Canberra. Presumably, at this time, Canberra had already received news of the rout at the front.

Not attacking Melbourne is to test the courage of the lord of Java, Uace.

Java has already lost 100,000 elites, and if Uace dares to send reinforcements again and teleport to Melbourne, Great Xia will not mind using Australia as the main battlefield and fighting Java.

Three in one.

Great Xia holds the initiative in the war, and the core purpose is not to attack and destroy any country, but to annihilate the living forces of the three.

As long as the territory army is defeated, who will be cleaned up in the future is not a matter of words.

…………

Canberra City.

In just one day, players in Australia have gone through the transition from heaven to hell.

Just yesterday, the prospects for the national war were still bright, and everyone was in high spirits and was bound to expel the enemy and defend the rivers and mountains. This is by no means a utopian dream, but is backed by a strong army.

But today, the news that the Melbourne army was ambushed and almost the entire army was defeated came, making the originally lively and noisy city of Canberra suddenly silent.

Quiet on the side of death.

The follow-up intelligence made the Australian players even more desperate.

Not to mention the destruction of the expected 200,000 reinforcements, the army that attacked Australia in Great Xia actually added two field legions out of thin air, one increasing and one decreasing, is not the difference between heaven and hell.

Ask yourself, can only 200,000 forbidden troops stop the Great Xia Praetorian Guard?!

No one has that ability.

Despair, like weeds, spreads wantonly through the wilderness.

Perhaps, the only hope for Australia is that Java will be able to send a second reinforcement army. However, with the defeat of the Melbourne army, the country of Java on the other side of the river also fell into an embarrassing silence.

When people fall into despair, they often do crazy things.

Players in Australia are going crazy and are ready to give it a go when faced with a war that has no chance of winning.
