As soon as Gerda and his men stepped onto the frozen lake, they saw the enemy, not because the Syndicate was not well hidden, but because they stood on the hill with a big grin, lined up.

"Leader on the other side, please come out and speak." Someone shouted from the hillock, and the mountain people did not hesitate, and all eyes were on Gelda.

He was a hereditary noble title after the famous general of the former Alterac, and was now the de facto commander of the force, and he was the only one who could take the lead.

It is already a common practice for the two armies to have an exchange before they face each other, but it is rare to fight when they come up, so the requirements of the syndicate army are normal. In the midst of everyone's attention, Gelda slowly stepped out of the battle and walked to the edge of the frozen lake.

Opposite him, a thin man emerged from the Syndicate.

"I'm Sauron, the current leader of the Syndicate." The person who came stood 10 meters away, first introduced himself, and his demeanor was calm and calm.

Gerda wondered, where did Facurrest go? This new leader has never heard of it at all, so who is sacred?

"Dispel your doubts, Your Excellency." Sauron smiled, "Facurrest has been executed by us for his misdeeds against his neighbors, and from now on, the Syndicate will be the people's armed forces to defend Alterac." ”

Hearing these righteous and awe-inspiring words, Gelda's face became gloomy, he never imagined that what the other party was talking to him about would be this, can he be trusted?

"It seems that when your army was first established, it also said such things." Gerda said coldly.

Sauron smiled dumbly and said, "I am not one of those corrupt and corrupt nobles, my promise is absolutely valid, and we Syndicate are willing to accept the supervision of the people."

Gelda's face became more and more difficult to look at, when you had the upper hand, you did whatever you wanted, and now you are cornered, and you want to return to the people, can it be so cheap?

"You have long been distrusted." With that, Gherda stopped rambling and turned to his own line, feeling that there was no need for the conversation to continue.

"Really? You'll regret it, proud fellow. Sauron muttered to himself and turned around, shouting, "Prepare for battle!"

"Prepare for battle!"

There were also people in the ranks of the mountain people who shouted orders, and the mixed legions immediately began to form a group, with those with armor stepping forward, and the hunters with bows living behind, and the rest of the people crowded in the middle. Although it was a little uneven, it was still an effective formation, and only the Thunderspear Dwarves were the only cavalry troops, wandering alone on the left flank of the group.

As the defenders, the Syndicate army was condescending and began to build a defensive line on the spot, lifting stones under the noses of the mountain people.

"Attack!"

With a wave of their hands, several leaders began to lead the men and horses forward, and the marching footsteps of the army "rumbled", and the ice lake was shaken.

It wasn't until they were about 150 meters away that the shieldmen in front of them stopped and raised their shields at the same time. This distance is exactly the range of the bow and arrow, and if you rush forward, the unprotected mountaineers in the rear will be exposed to long-range attacks.

However, unexpectedly, no bows and arrows flew from the opposite side, and everyone was still moving stones, and no one looked at this side at all.

After another ten minutes, the cold wind became more and more violent, and the ghosts and wolves howled between heaven and earth.

"Sir, it seems that they want to hold on with falling rocks, we can't wait any longer, let's order an attack." A dwarven cavalry rushed to Gelda's side and shouted.

Gerda couldn't call the name of this dwarf, only knew that he was the current commander-in-chief of the Thunderspear Dwarven Cavalry, and after hearing his request, after a little groaning, he decisively waved his hand and ordered loudly: "Let the Thunderspear Dwarf Rock Sheep Cavalry make arrows, immediately charge the enemy's position, and the other armies follow with the fastest speed, and be sure to eradicate these bandits in one fell swoop."

"Order!" The dwarven cavalry shouted viciously, galloped back to the headquarters with the reins, raised the war hammer in his hand, and more than a hundred dwarven cavalry lined up, forming a horizontal column in front of the formation.

"Follow me, break through the enemy formation, kill all these bandits, and avenge the old patriarch!" The leader of the Thunderspear Dwarves shouted, and began to gradually accelerate, and the cavalry on either side of him took turns to follow, and soon formed a "human" formation. The formation had just been formed, the speed was just raised to the limit, and the first echelon launched a charge without hesitation.

Attacking from the back is not good for the average cavalry, but the Rock Sheep Cavalry is not among them, and these Bighorn Rock Sheep climb the mountain like walking on the ground, and this angle is not hindering them.

As soon as the cavalry rushed up, the three columns of men and horses in the rear launched a charge at the same time under the command of the leader, and in order to seize the gap where the cavalry rushed out, they did not care about the formation, and soon ran into a group.

The curtain of battle opened, and on the top of a hill not far from here, two avengers stood up at the same time, watching nervously. One of the middle-aged soldiers frowned and shook his head, "Their combat quality is too poor, and they lack effective command, so if they continue like this, something will happen." ”

Another little soldier glanced at him and hesitated: "The enemy's combat quality is also average, and there are only seven hundred people, there shouldn't be any accidents, right?"

"I hope so." The middle-aged soldier muttered, his gaze never taking off the battlefield.

As he spoke, the two armies began to engage in battle.

The Thunderspear Dwarves in front of them were like sharp knives, piercing into the Syndicate's unfinished positions, only to be blocked by a few feathered arrows on the way. However, this was completely ineffective for a heavily armored dwarf, and after a few "clangings", the cavalry vanguard had already jumped over a one-meter-high low wall.

The Syndicate, which was charged by the cavalry, did not resist at all, and took the initiative to split into two and move to the sides. The "man" formation passed through, the attack front gradually increased, and the gap in the enemy formation was also pulled wider and wider, and it was completely divided in the blink of an eye.

Cavalry fighting infantry, first dividing and then maneuvering to encircle one part is the most commonly used and effective tactic. As soon as the thunder spear dwarf cut through the enemy formation, the knight at the head of the front immediately pulled the reins to the left, and the entire cavalry army was dragged to the left arc, and cut to the tail of the enemy on the left with murderous energy.

Without waiting for the cavalry to envelop the enemy on the left flank, the rear of the mountain people arrived, and their morale was high, and after turning over the stone fortifications, they immediately killed the right flank.

The left flank was attacked by more than 100 cavalry, and the right flank was attacked by nearly 2,000 infantry to attack more than 300 syndicate bandits.

However, the enemy troops on the right flank did not resist, and they did not wait for the mountain people to approach, and the formation immediately "collapsed", and they retreated in a chaotic group. There was a narrow valley behind, and the retreating Syndicates slid down the snowy slopes of the mountain wall in a panic, fleeing for their lives in the direction of the camp.

Once it is at a low level, it is equivalent to falling into passivity, and it is difficult to fight back. The mountain people were more demoralized and pursued above the mountain wall with shouts and shouts, while the rear simply slid down the valley and completely blocked the enemy's retreat.

The infantry here pursued and left, and the Rock Sheep cavalry on the hill had cut to the end of the left flank of the Syndicate, and the encirclement was about to be completed.

The encirclement of cavalry is different from that of infantry, relying on the advantage of mobility, they only need to wrap half of it, and then the opponent can intercept it no matter which way it runs, and the enemy will be driven to death like a flock.

However, this syndicate army was very calm and did not flee, but gathered tightly together to be on guard, leaving only one person at the end of the group to go out alone. It was a large man, with neither armor nor weapons, standing in place with his bare hands, blocking the maneuvering path of the cavalry. (To be continued.) )
