Chapter 80: The Great War

As soon as the Emperor's slogan was shouted, the army behind him advanced rapidly towards Mordred and Artoria in an orderly manner.

Columns of soldiers lined up in a neat phalanx, marching in an orderly manner.

This is the Emperor's reliance on three continents - the Macedonian phalanx.

Since the Battle of Issus in 333 BC and the Battle of Gaugamela in 332 BC, the prestige of the Macedonian phalanx spread throughout the ancient Mediterranean, and Macedonian's enemies shuddered at the mention of the Macedonian phalanx, because the Great made the phalanx a kind of legend: he was invincible.

The Macedonian phalanx played a huge role in the Emperor's conquest.

The Macedonian phalanx reached its peak in the time of Philip II the Great, with a basic formation of 16 men armed with six-meter spears, covered by cavalry and light infantry in loose formations. The various arms of the army were organically combined into a primitive multi-arm mixed army, which exerted great power in the Emperor's Eastern Crusade.

The Emperor took the lead, slashing heavily at Mordred's blade with his sword. However, the Emperor's Noble Noble level was not superior, and the attack failed to cause much trouble to Mordred. Mordred still had the strength to block it.

But isn't the advantage of cavalry flexibility? When the emperor saw that the blow did not work, he did not like to fight, and wandered to attack.

The Great's army was not slow to move either. The cavalry forces followed suit and engaged Artoria. The dense army came like a tidal wave, wave after wave, endlessly.

Although they are all heroic spirits, the level of the soldiers of the Emperor's army is too low, and the individual threat is not very large. It's just that there are a lot of people. With the tactics of crowds, the consumption also consumes the opponent to death.

"Click!!" Once again, the sword in the lake sliced through a soldier's armor and took his life. There was no scene of blood splattering, and the soldiers who lost their lives directly dissipated into particles.

Artoria was surrounded by the Emperor's army, layer after layer.

A steady stream of soldiers rushed towards Artoria. Kill one, and then another one comes up. Between the swords and shadows, Artoria's sword never stopped.

In the distance, Mordred was entangled by the Emperor and had no strength left to relieve Artoria.

Surrounded by a crowd, Artoria gritted her teeth and persevered, waiting for a turnaround.

Such a scene reminded Artoria of the Battle of the Sword Fence.

At that time, the battlefield was like hell on earth.

Corpses were strewn all over the field, rivers of blood flowed, and weapons were scattered everywhere.

Roaring knights and galloping horses collided. The British army was killing each other. Forgetting the old friendship, those who were loyal to the king and those who betrayed the king were red-eyed.

The rebellion sparked by the rebel knights was staggering. Although it was a rebellion launched under the banner that King Arthur was dead. But if it weren't for the king's loss of popular support, the rebellion would not have been supported at all.

Until the sun went down and turned the sky red. The battle gradually came to an end.

Both sides of the battle have been killed and wounded. The war was a great drain on Britain's vital forces and dealt a heavy blow to a country with a small population. Winning or losing is meaningless, and even if this war is won, the country will inevitably go to extinction.

On the hillock, the land was stained red with blood.

The angry rebellious knight and the disheartened king meet.
