Chapter 1085: Bindu State Cavalry

Up to now, Valad had never confronted the enemy head-to-head on the plains. He was "defending the city" and "besieging the city" from beginning to end, but in fact, he didn't have a chance to face the cavalry before, because the group of cavalry in front of him was the elite of the southern Bindu country, and they had never appeared near Laxia City before.

They rode tall horses with great endurance, and their speed was far from comparable to that of Rasiman's current cavalry.

"Array! Hurry up! Spell ready! Bow and arrow ready!"

Wallard glanced at the battle formation on his side, and immediately frowned, because the front army and the middle army were both combat units, the order was carried out very thoroughly, and the army formation was quite neat, but the sappers in the rear who were responsible for transporting trebuchets and other parts had a much lower military quality than other soldiers.

In the face of a cavalry raid on the open plain, either a sturdy barrel formation, passively waiting for the opponent to rush up, or you must take the initiative to send your own cavalry troops to meet the attack, although the losses will certainly be not small, but at least the decision is in your own hands.

Of course, Wallad understood this, and he was in the middle of the army at this time, looking at the enemy in front of him who had stopped to adjust, and he was thinking about how to respond.

At a glance, the number of these cavalry was about two thousand. The other party was dressed in typical nomadic decorations, but it could be seen that they were wearing some very different styles of armor, and Walad was able to identify them through spell observation, and was able to confirm that the helmet styles of these guys belonged to the type that only craftsmen in the country of Eskar could make.

In other words, this army is based on the rangers of the Bindu country, but after the optimization of the armament supported by the Eskar country, the combat effectiveness is probably much stronger than imagined.

He only had 800 cavalry under his command, and his combat strength was not comparable to that of the other party at all. It is estimated that the first shot will be defeated, but I am so passive and waiting...

Wallard's indecision was repeated.

This kind of sudden encounter is too late for him to pass on the information to the parliament to make decisions, according to the authority given to him by the parliament, the only thing Wallad can do at this time is to seek "stability", not waves!

The so-called "stability" is, in Wallard's eyes, "defense": in his opinion, these two thousand cavalry faced an army of 40,000, and it was not certain whether they dared to charge or not. If the opponent rushes into battle, it is very likely to fall into a positional battle, and if it can't rush out, it is impossible to say that all of them will be folded here.

Therefore, he calmly decided to defend.

At this time, the morale of the army was still acceptable, and there were many soldiers equipped with bows and arrows, and the mages began to use spells to quickly dig temporary trenches in front of the position, and it seemed that they were not afraid of the impact of the enemy army at all.

Time passed like this, minute by minute.

The two thousand cavalrymen stood a kilometer away for a short rest, and they took noticeably better care of their horses than the cavalry on Raciman's side, and the difference was evident from the glossy fur of the horses. Originally, the knights of Bindu Kingdom wore leather armor to fight, but at this time they all wore light armor and helmets protected by iron sheets, although they were far from the standard of "heavy cavalry", but the protection ability and impact were obviously much stronger than before.

Horses have been running for so long, and it stands to reason that the physical exertion is severe, but there are also priests in these cavalry ranks, who wear bird feather cloaks, but are not druids or mages, but shamans who are more similar to primitive religions, similar to the orc shamans of the Nehemian steppes, using some very crude and primitive spells.

These spells are not very powerful, but they allow the horses to regain their strength quickly. Wallard saw that they had a group of knights come to the front of the group, and the shamans cast spells in the rear, apparently to circumvent a part of the "forbidden realm".

In just five or six minutes, the whole team had completed its adjustments, and with shouts, they began a tentative attack towards Rasiman's formation!

The whole cavalry team was divided into three groups, approaching Rasiman's army formation from three directions, they were superb in horsemanship, and did not directly choose which position to charge frontally, and often began to circle after rushing over, surrounding the 40,000 troops from time to time close and far away, obviously looking for the weakness of the three-part army formation.

Of course, Wallard did not stand still and watch, and there were archers in the formation who fired in clusters, but the group of cavalry skillfully stuck in the range and was hardly affected. And the spells used by the mages were not unexpectedly annihilated above the cavalry ranks, and these cavalry were obviously fearless, and they were not afraid of any spells at all.

There was the hum of propellers in the sky, but none of the horsemen had looked up at them, and they had become accustomed to them on the other side of the river, and were now preoccupied only with dealing with the Rasiman army in front of them.

After cruising back and forth for more than ten minutes, one of the teams of about 500 people began to accelerate without warning, suddenly approached the rear army formation, and directly launched the first attack!

Wallard's face turned ugly, as he realized that the enemy had seen his worst vulnerability. But now he had no choice but to immediately command the archers to release their arrows.

However, with the battle formation stretching for a kilometer, there were only 2,000 archers who could support this direction. The two waves of arrows they fired in a hurry did kill and wound dozens of cavalrymen, but these Bindu knights on war horses rushed at a much faster speed than they had imagined, easily crossed the sparse trench, and crashed into the formation...

The momentum of this fearless charge was very amazing, because the weight of the war horse plus the armored cavalry was more than half a ton, and the logistics soldiers who were defending with shields and spears were not strong enough, and countless people were rushed out on the spot!

Although they gritted their teeth to support in the roar of the prison army, their basic skills in the battle formation were not enough, and they could not resist the swing of a scimitar in front of the most powerful Bindu knights, and they were often split together with people and shields, and the four rows of spearmen in front of them were directly flattened like paper, and the knights who followed up rumbled over, and easily inserted the sharp knives into the army formation of more than 10,000 people!

The team of five hundred people was extremely small compared to the huge military array, but the knights of Bindu Kingdom did not care at all, roaring angrily and splitting all the soldiers in front of them into pieces, the soldiers in the center of the military formation did not hold spears, they only had the long swords in their hands, and they didn't know how to stop the cavalry more than a meter higher than themselves...

In other words, these soldiers should not be on the front line to participate in the battle on the battlefield, but now this situation makes them rush ducks to the shelves, even if they are mixed with a few warlords who are not weak in combat, there is no way to change the fact that the overall strength of the rear army is weak.

And these soldiers present didn't know that many of the scimitars in the hands of these Bindu knights in front of them turned out to be stainless steel products supplied by the Karen Kingdom... This was the last time Roddy was here, he asked Houdini to trade with the little Khan, but who would have thought that now this weapon would be cut directly at the Rasiman soldiers?
