In the face of the resistance of these high court spearmen, the knight's war horse became a burden, because as long as the war horse was killed, the knight would fall down, and the knight after the fall would almost become a "king eight" who could be slaughtered, and the wailing of the war horse was heard everywhere, and then the scream of a certain knight, although Robert rode the "sun", rushed left and right, and killed the enemy in front of him, but it did not help the overall situation.

One might think, "Why don't you let the cavalry retreat and then charge repeatedly?" "The reason is very simple, because it is very difficult for a large army to turn around in time, and those behind may not receive orders in time, and if they rashly turn around and retreat, it is likely to be regarded as a sign of collapse, leading to a great rout.

In addition, it takes time for the horses to speed up, which means that from the time this order is given to the beginning of the rear team's execution, the knights at the front will be blocked by the troops in the rear, and they will not be able to move for a while, which will put them in an extremely dangerous situation. The tactic of repeated charges requires a very high quality of the entire unit, and it must be able to carry out orders and prohibitions, and only real elite soldiers can use this tactic.

After all, a real-life army is made up of living people, not machines, which makes this tactic tried and tested in the game "Medieval 2 Total War" not feasible in reality.

And the Robert army was obviously not a good army, although they were indeed well-armed, but a month ago they were only knights scattered throughout the Stormlands under the command of various lords, they were not a whole army, but only united under the leadership of their respective loyal nobles. This leads to the fact that sometimes they can make a mess by changing formations and lining up, and it is too difficult for them to play such a difficult one.

Think about it! When we train in the military, we line up and walk two steps, and we may not be able to walk neatly for a few days, not to mention this group of unruly knights who pursue "personal heroism"! Even if they buy it, the "Uncle Ma" under their crotch may not give face.

After all, war horses will feel tired, and after the first charge, the carbine will break a lot, and when the second charge comes, the effect will be much worse, and their carbine will not be conjured.

"Knights! Dismount and fight! This was Robert's response, he ordered loudly. He took the lead in choosing to dismount and fight, with a shield in his left hand and a sledgehammer in his right hand, Robert roared and rushed into the spearmen camp of the High Court, with this fierce weapon, Robert was full of mourning everywhere, the scene was extremely bloody, and everywhere the High Court soldiers were hammered to a bloody blur wailing on the ground, so that those High Court soldiers unconsciously fell backwards in front of Robert.

What is the nemesis of a spear? Sword and shield! The ancient Roman legions left everyone with a glorious record of defeating the long-established Macedonian phalanx of pikes, which vividly illustrates this point.

So how far is the knight from the sword and shield? The answer is the distance of a horse! shields, they have; Sabers, they also have them, all they need is to leave the warhorse. In fact, knights are more skilled in melee combat than swordsmen, after all, swordsmen are just a group of "amateurs" such as mercenaries, while knights are killing machines who have been practicing melee skills since childhood.

This was quite a groundbreaking idea, and of course, the reason Robert thought about it was certainly not because of the Roman legions, because he had never heard of Rome. He thought of this more like a mistake, and the only reason was that he was better at foot combat than horse fighting, so he thought of this as soon as he had an idea.

Those knights were quite surprised when they heard this at first, because after all, the war horse is the life of the knight plus the best companion, and taking the initiative to give up his speed advantage sounds like "death". At this time, Robert's powerful prestige played a role, and his outstanding achievements in the Summer Hall made the nobles admire him, especially the "Silver Axe" and the Earl of Grandeson who were subdued by him, and unconditionally obeyed his orders. With the two of them setting an example, the other nobles followed suit.

It must be said that Robert's mishaps were very effective, and as the knights dismounted, they immediately reversed their offensive and counterattacked the spearmen of the High Court. Although these spearmen of the High Court can be called well-trained, after all, they are "quick" by Randolph Tully, which is equivalent to becoming a monk halfway.

Their melee skills are quite poor, and they rely entirely on solidarity and repeated monotonous training of simple spur techniques, which, of course, have proven to be the route that should be taken by large armies, because it is easy to train and quick to form combat effectiveness.

But in the face of the dismounted knights, the spears in their hands were useless, and the tragedy in the face of the swordsmen repeated itself in them again, the spears were blocked by shields, and even if they hit, they did not do much damage, and penetrated the armor could only cause very little damage, and then they were hacked alive by the knights at close range, or the spears were cut off directly.

The dismounted knights had doubts about fighting on foot, but when they saw that the troops of the High Court, who had just caused them a headache and were as difficult to swallow as hedgehogs, were defeated so easily, they immediately saw that they were overjoyed, and rushed forward to fight with their shields and spears.

Today's High Court army can be described as embattled, the swordsmen on the right flank of the Robert Army are slaughtering the spearmen on the left flank of the High Court Army, and the cavalry that should have supported them was dragged by Han Xing. The left flank of the Gao Ting army and the rear of the Chinese army were attacked by the knights led by Robert, and although the Gao Ting army relied on its training to survive, as long as this situation was maintained, it was only a matter of time before the Gao Ting army collapsed.

But at this moment, a sudden mutation occurred, and shouts of killing were heard in the rear of Robert's army.

A group of elite Gordon cavalry is raiding the rear of Robert's army, and the leader is none other than Randolph Tully, just like Han Xing is worried, Randolph Tully and half of the cavalry have mysteriously "disappeared", obviously, they were not captured by aliens, but detoured back to their rear.

Randolph Tully is worthy of being the god of the Westeros army, he used two thousand miscellaneous cavalry to drag Han Xing, don't look at them as miscellaneous cards, but because they are from the High Court, all of them are wearing exquisite armor, so that Han Xing believes that they are knights, but in fact they are not, they are just a group of "quasi-knights" wearing gorgeous armor, no wonder Han Xing will meet several "silly boys" who look as if they have never been on the battlefield at all, because they have never been on the battlefield.

After using 2,000 cavalry to hold off Han Xing's cavalry, Randolph Tully led his most elite troops from the right flank of the Robert army to the rear of the Robert army. This effect was fatal, because unlike the well-equipped and well-trained Gao Ting Army, the second column in the rear of Robert's army was a veritable miscellaneous fish, which could only fill the scene and wave the flag and shout.

As the elite High Court Knights led by Randolph Tully himself rushed towards this group of second-echelon levies like a tide, they didn't even come to their senses, because as members of a large army, they thought that this battle had nothing to do with them. Just wave the flag in the back and take a look at the scenery. Ser Harbert Baratheon, who had remained in charge of the Chinese army, did not realize that they were being outflanked until he heard the sound of their horses' hooves, and when he turned to find that the distance between them had been reduced to within a kilometre.

Fortunately, the old uncle was also a man who had been fighting on the battlefield for half his life, and immediately organized his troops to form a phalanx of spears, and it was not until the enemy approached within 100 meters that they reluctantly set up a loose defensive formation at the urging of Sir Harbert.

Different from the "old family" of the Gao Ting Army, the second echelon is composed of the old, weak, sick and disabled and poorly equipped troops selected by Robert, as mentioned above, how poor their equipment is, they don't even have a decent spear, the spear is either bent or the spear head is rusty, or even simply a sharpened wooden stick, the shield is even tattered, exuding a musty smell, as if it will be broken when pinched, the armor rate on the body is outrageously low, and few people have armor.

No way, Stormlands is a difficult place, this has been said a long time ago, unlike the wealth of the High Court, the civilians of Stormlands live quite hard, and the mobilization of conscripts is the mobilization of the whole people, and these old, weak, sick and disabled are also the goods of fighting a good war. Leaving the group behind was Robert's wisest decision, but now it was a fatal wound.

On the other hand, Randolph Tully's side is the most elite knight unit of the High Court, and a small part of them are Randolph Tully's own soldiers, which is like a command. And all of them have distinct armor, more powerful than Robert's four thousand knights, because the high court is mostly a plain terrain, so the high court knights are far stronger than the Stormland knights, their horses, armor, weapons, and equestrian skills are all overpowering the Stormland knights.

It was such a most elite unit against the worst unit of the Upper Robert Army, and unless a miracle happened, the result would speak for itself. The knights of the High Court began to lower their pistols, their faces invisible to their armor, but even if they could see them, they were probably indifferent.

And the second echelon of the Storm Land, their hands were trembling slightly, and their bodies couldn't stop shaking, obviously, for these conscripts who had hardly been on the battlefield, let alone received systematic combat training, it was an extremely difficult thing just to obediently set up a position to meet the Gaoting cavalry, and perhaps the only reason that could prevent them from escaping was that their own legs and stomachs had been weakened by fear.

The High Court Knights, led by Randolph Tully, crashed into the second echelon of recruits like a torrent of steel, and countless recruits were knocked to the ground by the High Court Knights' horses, their shabby and rudimentary weapons in their hands did little harm to the High Court Knights.

A Robert levy mustered up the courage to raise his spear and head towards the galloping High Court Knight, who theorized that the High Court Knight's horse would be pierced by a spear, and then the High Court Knight would fall off his horse.

But this is only theoretical, the fact is that the rusty spear in the levy's hand can pierce the vest of the war horse, and then it stops there, because the material of the spear is not good, and the head of the spear is directly broken. So the levy was knocked to the ground by his horse with a spear turned into a stick, and then he followed in the footsteps of the soldiers of the High Court under Robert's iron hooves, and was directly trampled into meat sauce by the horses that followed at a gallop.
