Chapter Forty-Seven: The Knights! Charge!
"Hehe, the commander of the other side is not too stupid, but, it's too late! Order, the Archer Legion and Storm Wings waited for the enemy infantry to block the fire after entering the firing range, ordered the Savage Force and the Champion Swordsman to speed up the strangulation of the enemy knights, and ordered, Grand Master Kane to prepare for the attack! ”
Al Andergrims looked at the enemy infantry who were in chaos all over the mountains, without the slightest formation discipline, and directly began to charge under the leadership of the officer, a mocking smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and his mouth did not hesitate to give orders one after another
More than three miles away, enough time, you must know that the soldiers of this era are not like the athletes of the earth, the armor and weapons on their bodies are enough to consume their already small physical strength on the road, not to mention, will he give the enemy a chance......
All the soldiers also saw the situation in front of them, and under the new order, in addition to the champion swordsman and the savage force, even the spearmen and spearmen who had suffered heavy losses drew their short swords to defend themselves and gritted their teeth to rejoin the battle
This purposeful, strangulation of the enemy knights has entered the most critical moment at this moment, and the Savage Force Legion, led by Edward and Tedamire, broke out in the melee with a terrifying combat power that made everyone jaw-dropping
Or, to put it another way, if the Champion Swordsman is the impregnable shield of the infantry of the Duchy of Pande, then the newly formed Savage Force is the spear that is unrivaled in its sharpness that can destroy everything......
"Hah!"
Edward did not dodge or retreat, raised his sword with both hands, and forcibly took the powerful and heavy slash of one of the other party's glory knights, and his tall body sank into the ground a few inches in the roar, and he actually relied on manpower to carry the opponent's attack with the help of horsepower
Raising his head, Edward licked the blood gushing from the corner of his mouth because of the concussion, and looked at the somewhat helpless rider in front of him with a bloodthirsty grin
"Kill!"
Almost at the same time as Edward, while the knight's attention was distracted, the three highland swordsmen who were quietly approaching swung their man-high swords together......
Spat bloody smearing at the dismembered knight on the ground, Edward wiped the corners of his mouth and led his group to his next target......
And such a hunting team composed of highland swordsmen, there are thousands of them on the battlefield, you must know that the highlanders who have hunted for a living for generations in the barren wasteland have always been the most cunning and cruel hunters!
In complete contrast to the highlanders led by Edward, the fighting style of the nearly 1,000 barbarian warriors under Tydamir was more frantic and reckless......
Perhaps it was the difference in customs or the difference in living environment, the barbarian warriors admired their personal bravery, and each warrior had to go into the forest alone at the coming-of-age ceremony to hunt their first prey with their own hands, and their strong bodies and terrifying recovery ability also made them not care too much about their own injuries
Covered in heavy iron armor but retaining the custom of bare his left shoulder, Tydamir is like a humanoid beast, rampage through the narrow battlefield, and the artifact [Omen's Wolf Axe] from Pander in his hand has become a killing machine
"Ahhh
Tydamir, who was so fierce that he attracted three knights to besiege at once, only slightly turned his head to let go of the attack that slashed at the neck, while the curved breastplate slid away the second weapon for him, and then in a frenzied cry of pain, his muscles and ribs firmly stuck the sword of the third knight......
Without giving the other party any chance to escape, the bear slayer's face was unnaturally distorted by pain and ferocity, and the left elbow struck hard to break the long sword inserted into the ribs, and then held the battle axe with both hands, and the whole person spun quickly in place like a big windmill
How could the sharpness of Pande's artifact be an existence that the armor forged by mortal iron could resist, and the three knights who surrounded them, along with the war horses under their crotches, were twisted into broken blood clots by the people and horses without even having a chance to scream......
In the long roar of the sky, Tedamir's ribs, which were still bleeding before, slowly began to stop the bleeding under the natural contraction of the muscles, and he took a few breaths and dragged the wolf axe of omens, and he looked for the next prey again
A similar way of fighting also happened to every barbarian warrior at the same time, maybe ordinary warriors are still far from knights in terms of strength, but, under the bonus of morale and the decline of the other party, the exchange ratio has been maintained at three to one or even lower, not to mention, in addition to Tedamir, there are more than a dozen warriors who also have honorable titles in this group of barbarians......
The vanguard of the enemy infantry had already rushed to the land of Rich, and even when Ardarian with the Knights of the Dawn and Tyr above the city had begun to kill the enemy officers with accurate firing points
Although the rescue could already be seen close at hand, but until now, the enemy knights with less than 300 men left could no longer hold on, and when the first knight from the command of a certain nobleman gave up his honor and took the lead in turning his horse's head and starting to run away, this behavior completely shattered a certain persistence and obsession in the hearts of the knights
Except for the few dozen glorious knights remaining, almost all of them began to rout, and in front of a group of infantry who had never been looked at by them, the knights of the noble coalition retreated......
***********************
500 meters!
By the time the coalition knights began to collapse, the advance of the enemy infantry had reached a distance of 500 meters, and as they approached, they had deliberately slowed down their pace and began to recover their strength a little, and the long-range strike corps on the city walls were also prepared to block and delay to the maximum extent under the orders of Tyr, and bundles of arrows were piled up everywhere!
400 meters!
As the last knight fled, the champion swordsman, who was powerless and unable to pursue, regrouped and regrouped as a whole team without time to rest, and the reckless minority warriors were also driven back to the flank by Edward and Tedamir......
300 meters!
The first wave of long-range strikes from Leo's side had already arrived, and thousands of enemies who were exhausted and even lost their breastplates and shields in the charge tasted the bitter fruits, and the original 30,000 infantry deployed outside the city, and the last remnants of more than 20,000 people, were now ready to fight again around the champion swordsman
At this time, Marshal El Andréstes did not even look at the fleeing knights of the enemy, or the enemy infantry that was about to make contact......
"Your Excellency Grand Master Finn, a thousand, only a thousand knights, how much time can you buy for us warriors after a hard battle? Or rather...... How long will it be before our warriors can follow the breach you have breached and crush the enemy once and for all? ”
In the face of Al's meaningful questioning, Fain first bowed solemnly to Leo on the horse, and then looked at the other party's unorganized charge and said flatly
"Let your soldiers hurry up and rest, or I'm afraid they won't be able to keep up with the speed of our assault!"
Keith also glanced at Al and sneered
"You've done so much just for the sake of this moment, El, Marshal, you don't need to use such a child's trick as agitation, you'll see it soon...... See what we're really capable of! ”
With that, the two captains smiled at each other, nodded slightly, and turned back to the head of the Knights, where Ardalian was waiting for them with a playful smile
"Guys! You're too harsh, and we Noldor often deal with the soldiers of the Empire, and that's how they are, calculating and calculating everything...... But, frankly, Al did a good job."
"Yes, he did a good job, using pure infantry to break through against the enemy's 2,000-strong knights, and he could play a nearly 5 to 1 exchange ratio, but I just hate this feeling, as if it was ignored and despised as a feeling, although I understand that this is not true"
Clapping his hands, Finn interrupted Keith's grumbling, looked at several regimental commanders, including Alexander, and spoke with solemn faces
"In that case, let's show him our strength, sometimes, no matter how good the strategy is, it can't withstand the crushing of absolute strength!"
After a brief conversation, the Knights of Punishment, led by the four Captains, together with the Knights of the Dawn, the Knights of the Dawn, and the Swan Knights under the command of the Earl of Leicester, formed the arrows of the assault
They will lead the knights of the rest of the nobles in the rear with a total of 1,000 men, and for the first time in a major war, they will show the enemy and the entire continent the high-end power belonging to the emerging Duchy of Pande
As Finn took the lead in pulling down his armor and holding his cavalry spear high, the thousands of knights maintained a perfect charging formation, and at the same time raised the weapons in their hands, and the mounts under their crotches slowly accelerated and slowly appeared at the front of the array from the passage reserved by the champion swordsman
On the city wall, the archers also stopped shooting, and the air above the battlefield was almost frozen at this moment, and a scorching and irrepressible frenzy gradually arose among the soldiers who finally saw their knights after a bitter battle......
"Ho! Ho~~Ho~~Ho~~Ho~Ho! ”
The sound of spears and weapons striking shields, from chaotic to neat, filled Leo's army in an instant with the frenzied shouts of the soldiers, and this shout dispelled the few fears among the knights
200 meters!
Finn held aloft the riding spear with the banner of Leo in his hand, and his voice was as high as a hundred miles of thunder and roared
"For the sake of honor!"
"For the sake of honor!"
At this moment, no matter where they belonged, all the knights followed Finn to exhaust the last breath of air in their lungs, and at the same time shouted the battle cry that represented the knight's ultimate faith
After that, thousands of knights who had been recuperating to this day did not hesitate to rush towards the enemy at the front who had even lost the ability to escape due to the rapid charge......
The four hooves of thousands of war horses are constantly beating on the hearts of their own and their enemies like neat drums in the snow, but behind this sound is the strongest sound of this era!
Don't be afraid of strong enemies! Loyalty, honor trump life
Knights! Charge!
