331.Chapter 331: Harvest
The long, low sound of a horn is rarely used in skirmishes, and soldiers with little combat experience don't even know what it means, and only a "veteran" like Wellington, who has fought in several wars, would be extremely sensitive to such sounds.
The pursuing enemy on the river beach was directly stunned by this sudden rain of precise arrows - the effect of heavy armor against arrows was recognized, so Bussel and the others were able to pursue within the range of Lando's group of wood elves without any scruples... But no one thought that there would be arrows that could be so strong that they could directly break through the iron armor, and even be able to kill the Bussel knight with the "battle spirit" protection in seconds!
Not only Bussel, but more than a dozen knights who rushed to the front were all shot and fell to the ground within five seconds, this scene gave people the feeling that it was as if a vicious dog that was about to bite its prey was cut off by an axe, and the original momentum suddenly disappeared, and even the charging speed was slowed down by fifty percent!
Such a blow had such a huge effect on the morale of the entire team, so much so that the running infantry slowed down with wide eyes, not knowing what to do.
Immediately afterward, a cavalry team of forty men rushed out of the woodland next to it.
The cavalry sent by Viscount Juan totaled fifty people, and more than thirty came to pursue Wellington, and after ten people were shot dead in one face, only twenty-three cavalry were left in front - so at this time, facing this murderous team that was more than twice as large as them, they had no strength to meet the attack without the leader of the Bussel Knights, and they could only face the attack from the side...
They instinctively raised their battle shields to block, trying to withstand the opponent's attack with their sturdy armor - these cavalry were the "hard work" of Viscount Juan for nearly ten years, and their equipment and training consumed a lot of resources and energy, so they had the confidence that conventional troops could not match when fighting any enemy...
This team is the hope of the Hu Security Department, and they have built a lot of money to think that they have an absolute advantage in equipment and strength when facing any troops in the territory.
But when the two sides got in touch, everything didn't go as they imagined.
In terms of equipment, the armor they were proud of was as pitiful as beggars in front of Roddy's troops.
In terms of strength, these are just cavalrymen who have been trained for several years and have never experienced truly cruel and bloody battles - they have not faced the wolf cavalry of orcs, they have not faced the undead knights riding skeleton horses, and they have not faced the siege of zombies with more than 10,000 numbers...
They are only trained "recruits" who have not experienced the test of blood and fire.
And the average level of Roddy's cavalry is 13, and the high level has reached level 15, and Sodrore is even more advanced to the fourth level of "ghost knights", in terms of defense, blood and attack power, they are almost twice as many as these knights!
In such a situation, when Roddy's troops struck from the flanks with twice the number of people, the result was only two words:
Crush!
The entire cavalry team was like a hammer smashing into an iron nail, suppressing the morale of the enemy from the moment of contact - Sodrol, who was wearing the "Holy Shield", broke through the enemy line without injury, and the "Guardian Fang" in his hand was full of power due to the full battle energy, and each sword swing brought up a large piece of broken arm and stump!
Their charge was unstoppable, as if they had trampled the enemy's cavalry ranks directly under their feet.
In just a dozen seconds, there were only four of Viscount Juan's knightly forces left that had not yet fallen.
The absolute superiority of strength made the cavalry duel end in the blink of an eye, and Sodrol did not stop, and continued to rush towards the rear of the enemy formation without slowing down!
There were more than one hundred and fifty infantry following the Busero knights, which sounded like a lot of numbers, but because they had been chasing the cavalry team to attack together, the queue had already been sparsely stretched, and it was impossible to form a dense formation to resist the onslaught of Sodrore's cavalry. In the face of the roaring cavalry, they had to choose to spread out to the sides, trying their best to dodge the impact of this killing team.
However, no matter how much they dodged, the infantry was targeted by the cavalry in the open area, and the result could only be a one-sided slaughter - the cavalry of forty men swung their swords and divided them without difficulty!
Roddy's figure was in the center of the group, and instead of slashing with a tomahawk, he kept a scan of the battlefield and sniped at the seemingly threatening foes with his short bow. And after this extremely successful charge, he directly ordered to continue to move forward and rescue the surrounded Henry and the others as soon as possible, so he did not turn back and kill the second time.
The sound of horses' hooves fading away made the remaining infantry think that they had escaped, but before they could breathe a sigh of relief, a team of more than fifty infantry was killed in the forest again!
At the same moment, the Wellington knights, who understood the reversal of the situation, had already led the team in a circle, leading his subordinates and the remaining knights of the caravan to turn back and cover up...
The situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly, Wellington keenly grasped this critical opportunity, and changed his identity as a "chaser" to a "chaser", and cooperated with Roddy's infantry to start a counter-encirclement and suppression!
In this process of role reversal, only Lando and these wood elves were the most sluggish, but this was not to blame for their slow reactions, but because they were not familiar with controlling war horses. But no matter how stupid they are, they can see the situation in front of them clearly: Lando reacts quickly, and immediately understands that it is time for him to fight back... He shouted the order to "dismount", jumped down from his horse first, and then reached out to get a few arrows from the hunter next to him, and put on his short bow and was ready to shoot, but before he could release the bowstring, he suddenly noticed a familiar figure next to the team.
A huge longbow, sharp leather armor in black and red, a short cloak with camouflage... Nata, dressed in elaborate gear, appeared beside the wood elves without warning, causing them to collectively be a little stunned.
Her image has changed so much that it is difficult for these companions, who have lived together for many years, to identify her.
Nata used to be lonely and isolated, not very strong, but her personality was stubborn, and she was always alone when hunting... At this time, she took the initiative to appear beside these wood elf hunters, and raised her hand, pointed at the enemies in front of her who were preparing to resist, and said, "Advance, cover and shoot." ”
Nata rarely speaks, and there are even many hunters in the same village who have lived with her for many years who have not heard her speak, so the "order" she took the initiative to say made Lando and the others a little unbelievable.
It's only been half a year since she left, and she has changed so much?
Lando had a lot of things to say in his heart: how much his archery skills had improved, how much his status had changed, what had happened in the village during this time, etc., etc., but as Nata raised her bow and began to shoot, Lando understood that Nata at this time completely represented the team that saved her people, and her words were equivalent to the orders of the human named "Roddy"...
The situation was stronger than the people, and although Lando didn't have a good impression of Roddy, he finally saved himself, so he immediately started a cluster throw with the surrounding wood elves - and with their cover shots, the charge of the Wellington knights and the advance of the infantry seemed to be extremely smooth, and when all the arrows he could find were fired, the battle here gradually came to an end.
[Today's Kavin is serious, only more than two thousand have been written, tomorrow if the mind is smooth, try to make it back, the new week, there are not many things at home, I try to double more times. 】
