182 Lust deserves to be killed
When our army attacked the Shang Allied forces from the north, they must have thought that we were coming for reinforcements, and they would definitely give priority to destroying the reinforcements, which gave us an opportunity. At the Desic Military Syndicate, Edward VI spoke eloquently and explained his plans for the twilight to his generals.
This plan was planned when Edward VI was still the second prince and Grand Duke. The Shang League were militarily simple-minded, they were often afraid of the combat power of the Desik army, and they would be accustomed to self-preservation in battle, lacking the initiative to attack.
Therefore, when this kind of battle situation is presented in front of the Shang Alliance army, their commander will never allow his army to be flanked from front to back, so between the heavily armed Desik army behind the city wall and the exhausted Desik reinforcements coming at high speed, they will definitely choose to turn back and deal with the reinforcements first.
Under normal circumstances, as long as ~ part of the army is left to monitor the enemies in the city, so that they do not have a chance to go out of the city to attack, the choice of the Shang Alliance army is not a problem. But if the defenders in the city were preparing to go out of the city to fight from the beginning, the army left to guard would definitely not be able to stop the Desik army attacking with all its might.
Absolutely, unstoppable!
Florian's capture of the city of Sedan with the army of Desic was a trap for the Merchant Alliance from the outset. Once in the city, he had his best soldiers recuperated in the castle of Carcassonne. What's even more amazing is that this group of troops is mixed with some wolf cavalry and a large number of war horses.
Yes, General Florian, there is a heavily armed attacking force in his army at all times.
When Etienne began to approach General Guo's army with reinforcements, General Jim and the Steppenwolf cavalry were already approaching the camp.
Steppenwolf Rider, more powerful than ordinary cavalry, is that the wolf rider itself is a powerful samurai, a thousand wolf cavalry, their impact is definitely more than five thousand ordinary cavalry.
After General Guo came to Southern Madur, he basically did not fight the Steppenwolf Rider head-on, and the Steppenwolf Rider, as the subordinate unit of the Desik royal family, has not appeared on the battlefield as a formation for many years. Therefore, General Guo was shocked to find that the walls of his camp could not stop Steppenwolf at all.
Jim's own Steppenwolf is an eight-year-old adult Steppenwolf, more than five grams in length and more than two grams in height, with a massive wolf head with a bloody mouth that can swallow an adult in one fell swoop.
The more than 1,000 Steppenwolf riders selected were the bravest and most elite of the entire Steppenwolf Warrior Regiment, and after many days of lurking, this was the time when the energy was the most vigorous and the momentum was the highest.
After rushing through the rain of bows and arrows of the Shang League, the soldiers of the Shang League were horrified to see those terrifying beasts that were more than one person tall, roaring and rushing towards the wall. The spearmen behind the wall, so nervous that they couldn't even hold their spears.
General Guo put on his trademark black armor and hurried to the front line, "General, it's not safe in front, just do it here!" General Christopher is in command in front. The adjutant stretched out his hand to stop it, and then pointed to the arrow tower next to it, "You can see it clearly here." ”
General Guo thought for a while, "Not this time, the situation ahead is unclear, I must be on the front line in order to give orders in time, I am the commander of the whole army, and I must be responsible for Christopher." After saying that, he didn't look back and walked towards the north wall. The adjutant general waved his hand again and again, and ordered the nearby soldiers to bring a few more shields over.
Jim was the first to "storm" into the camp, and as the commander of the Steppenwolf Rider, he naturally knew the importance of His Majesty's plan this time, so he took the lead in the charge. His huge steppenwolf rushed to the wall, and with a little force, he jumped over the two-person wall.
A huge black shadow flew through the sky, and Steppenwolf's sharp teeth penetrated the body of the first merchant alliance soldier in front of him, accompanied by a scream of "ahhhh Before the Shang Alliance soldiers could react, more Steppenwolves, with the warriors on the back of the wolves, also jumped over the wall in turn.
General Guo hurried to the first wall with his guards, and a large number of Steppenwolves were jumping over the wall and slaughtering the guards. The soldiers on the front line were soldiers from the newly formed Seventh Army, which was an army jointly formed by the three northwestern countries, and its combat effectiveness was weaker than that of the new First Army from Manning, so it was placed in the camp by General Guo Lao and did not participate in the main offensive mission.
And the sudden arrival of the Steppenwolf rode all the soldiers off guard, even if General Guo had already given the order in time, but in front of the giant beast Steppenwolf, which was more than one person tall, their spears were like children's toys.
A soldier took advantage of the unpreparedness of the Steppenwolf in front of him, and stabbed a spear into the neck of the Steppenwolf, and the spear pierced into the wolf's neck for no more than an inch, so he could not go any deeper. The merchant soldier was stunned in fright. The wasteland warrior on the back of the wolf naturally would not let go of this opportunity, raised his scimitar, and the arc-shaped cold light fanned, and a head flew into the sky in an instant. Blood splattered onto the wolf's fur, and Steppenwolf shook his neck, shaking the blood off, and turned his head to open the mouth of blood to the other group of merchant alliance soldiers.
"Don't panic, don't panic, use a spear to form a formation!" General Guo, who hurried from a distance, shouted and shouted to the soldiers of the New Seventh Army to organize the formation as soon as possible. Steppenwolf leapfrogging into the wall, somewhat huge, will soon be surrounded by multiple soldiers. It was only because it was the first time they had seen this ferocious beast from the Northlands, and most of the soldiers were frightened stupid.
After hearing the voice of their own general, the soldiers began to calm down, and a group of soldiers surrounded a steppenwolf from all sides, allowing it to "show its teeth and claws", and the surrounding soldiers just stopped approaching, but forced with spears and stabbed a spear from time to time, although they could not kill and injure the enemy in large numbers, at least stabilized the situation.
At this time, General Guo Lao breathed a sigh of relief, glanced at the battlefield, and found that the number of Steppenwolf riders who broke into the camp was not too many, and the first wave was only more than a hundred people and wolves. However, before he could give another order, suddenly from the southern sky, the sound of a horn sounded again, and "woo woo woo" lingered on the top of the cone tower of Carcassonne Castle.
At the same time, Etienne was rushing to the camp of General Guo Lao in the north with half of his army. When the Shang Alliance surrounded Sedang City, General Guo's camp was in the north of the city and the mercenary camp was in the southeast of the city, and the two camps were about an hour apart.
When the horn sounded, Etienne also heard the horn sound for the first time, "I'll go, the Desik are really ready to come out!" However, before they could react, the north and south gates of Sedan City opened instantly.
Neither General Guo nor General Etienne saw the appearance of the Desik army out of the city at the first time, if they could see it at the first time, they would understand that the Desik people were completely prepared, Sedang City, this is a trap.
Yes, the first to come out of the city was a row of about 500 Steppenwolf riders, also tall Steppenwolf carrying mighty warriors, and after Steppenwolf rode a heavy infantry wearing black iron armor and holding a one-degree "slashing sword" (Note 1), wearing a fan-shaped shield (Note 2) at their sides, a team of five people lined up in a neat queue, following the Steppenwolf riders running fast behind the Steppenwolf riders, and at the end, crossbowmen, holding the black iron crossbows that Desik was common to.
At the north and east gates of Sedang City, there were more than 10,000 soldiers each leaving the city quickly.
The Steppenwolf rider at the north gate came to the outside of the city first, spread out the formation as fast as possible, and surrounded the camp not far away without looking back. The Desik army that came out of the east gate was divided into two outside the city, one part went north to copy the mercenary rear, and the other part went south, preparing to block the advance route of the remaining mercenaries.
In addition to the Steppenwolf riders and crossbowmen, the Desik soldiers who went out of the city were well-armed Desik heavy infantry, because they were not far from the Shang Alliance military camp, and once the heavy infantry formed a formation, they began to charge towards the Shang Alliance.
If you can see it from the air, the current situation on the battlefield is quite complicated, and the Shang Alliance and the Desik people are once again mixed together: the back of General Guo's camp is the Steppenwolf cavalry led by Jim, and the front is the Desik infantry regiment from the north of Sedan City;
The heavy infantry regiments of the Desiks, armed with swords and fan shields, they did not need to think about the enemy in front of them at all, they only needed to close their eyes, protect their flanks with fan shields, and use their swords to chop everything in front of them into pieces.
The first to collapse was Etienne's mercenary army, who were on their way when they were attacked suddenly, and the soldiers were killed by the Desiks before they could fully react. The next to collapse was the camp of the new First Army in General Guo's camp. At the same time, the new army, which was attacked in front and rear, was easily torn apart by the Desik heavy infantry. The two main armies of the Shang Alliance in this battlefield suffered a fatal blow at the same time, and they couldn't even expand their formation.
In continental field warfare, once the warring sides are unable to form a formation, neither attack nor defense can be carried out. The soldiers would just huddle together, and they couldn't even see where the enemy was.
"Old General Guo, the new army in front is already in chaos, what should I do!" The herald rode a flying horse to report the news, and the old general Guo, who had just stabilized the situation in the rear camp, lowered the sword in his hand in a gloomy manner, and actually sat down cross-legged in the middle of the battlefield, and wrote and drew on the ground with his sword.
Note 1: The sword is a pure infantry sword. At least 1.5 grams in length, a blunt and rounded head, a broad but thin blade, and a bladeless blade above the grip, everything exists for the purpose of "chopping".
Note 2: An infantry shield that is convenient for sideways attacks.
