Chapter 30: Victory
When Huo Shizhen's reserve left in the rear saw this, they rushed up desperately, but the infantry naturally couldn't compete with the cavalry.
However, in just a distance of more than 200 meters, for the cavalry who charged with all their might, it only took more than ten seconds, although Huo Shizhen was also a veteran on the battlefield, when he encountered this kind of change, he had no time to react effectively, and could only watch more than 200 cavalry crash into the side of the fish scale array.
Fifty heavy cavalry, with the Knights of Ples as the tip, lined up in two rows, like fifty tanks, crashed into the infantry formation of the Beihai King's army, and went straight to the small phalanx where Huo Shizhen was in the center of the formation.
Count André was not in the ranks of the heavy cavalry, as a part-time mage of the Arcane Knight, he was not wearing metal armor, but enchanted leather armor, and he held a magic ranger crossbow in one hand and a white staff in the other.
More than 200 rangers, in a slightly loose formation, followed behind the heavy cavalry and rushed into the infantry formation.
The Rangers, with their short lances in one hand and ranger crossbows in the other, turned to the officers in the army formation wearing fish scale armor to shoot.
The former army of the North Sea King deserves to be considered elite, and even in such an unfavorable situation, it still reacted.
First of all, the small phalanx that was hit by the heavy cavalry desperately wanted to entangle the galloping heavy cavalry and slow down their speed, and the nearby small phalanx of fish scales also quickly converged towards the target line of the heavy cavalry, wanting to form a tighter formation and slow down the speed of the heavy cavalry.
As soon as the cavalry loses speed and gets stuck in the infantry group, it becomes a lamb to the slaughter, which is obviously an army with a lot of experience in cavalry combat.
If the heavy cavalry were specially cultivated high-grade war horses with arcane beast blood in the Salen Continent, these infantry would just come to send them to death, but now they were riding no more than ordinary fine war horses, and such war horses were obviously not enough to kill such an elite infantry formation.
Fortunately, Count André personally took part in the charge. I saw him chanting incantations and waving his staff, and a basin-sized fireball quickly converged at the top of his staff, and with the gentle swing of his staff, the fireball flew into an infantry phalanx with a long trail of lightning. It exploded.
The coverage area of the fireball technique is about a circle with a diameter of more than ten meters, a small square array of fish scales of one hundred people, ten rows horizontally and vertically, and the side length is only more than ten meters.
The fire element that exploded and splashed out of the fireball technique almost completely covered the small phalanx of fish scales, and the terrible screams suddenly resounded throughout the battlefield.
At this time, the first guard of the former army, who had been very brave, was finally timid!
Taking advantage of the enemy's timidity, the heavy cavalry quickly dispersed the small phalanx blocking the way in front and quickly approached Huo Shizhen's phalanx.
The fireball technique just now not only made the soldiers spacing the holes. Even Huo Shizhen's face was afraid, the soldier was afraid of the fireball itself, and what Huo Shizhen was afraid of was the meaning behind the fireball technique.
When a martial artist reaches level five or above, he can become a monk, and after becoming a monk, he can also learn spells, but the power of the monk's spell is worse than that of the mage, and Huo Shizhen obviously regarded this spell as a monk's spell. This undoubtedly means that there is a sixth-level or even seventh-level monk in the opposing array......
The Knights of Fergostan quickly rushed to the center of the Fish Scale Formation, approaching Huo Shizhen's phalanx. Without hesitation, Count André raised his staff and chanted a spell......
When the previous fireball technique showed its might, Huo Shizhen had already taken out a bright yellow talisman from his arms and sandwiched it between his middle finger and index finger, and now saw that the caster waved the staff to this side again, Huo Shizhen did not hesitate to hold the talisman and draw a few times in front of him, and the rune paper exploded. An earthy yellow light appeared on Huo Shizhen's body.
In the next moment, the second fireball technique had already exploded beside Huo Shizhen.
The power of the fireball burst is not great, and the main thing is to rely on the intense fire element that splashes after the explosion to kill a large area, in fact, its single killing ability is not strong in the third-level spell.
The splash of fire elemental ignited Huo Shizhen's pro-soldier phalanx, protected by that earthy yellow light. Huo Shizhen was not hurt, he looked at the soldiers around him who were howling miserably, roared in pain, flew up, and flew backwards.
For every general, the pro-soldiers are the core of the team, Huo Shizhen's pro-soldiers are some of his relatives, some of them are his disciples, and some of them are promoted by him from the soldiers, a hundred people are all martial artists above the first level, all of them are battle-hardened, with one as ten elite soldiers, the loss of these pro-soldiers is equivalent to cutting off his foundation in the army, no wonder he did not retreat until the last moment, but he retreated too late.
Just when Huo Shizhen took off and flew back, Count Andre raised his staff again and aimed it at him, after a short spell, a snow-white lightning beam pierced the sky and shot fiercely at Huo Shizhen's chest, and the earthy yellow light armor burst out with dazzling light, just like a brilliant firework, the light was as brilliant as a firework, and it was as short as a firework, the dazzling light flashed, and the earthy yellow light armor that protected Huo Shizhen from the fire element disappeared, and the lightning beam penetrated Huo Shizhen's chest and disappeared into the distant sky.
Huo Shizhen's death became the last straw that broke the camel's back, and the brave first guard of the front army began to flee......
Seeing this scene, the knight who was entangled with Beima in the distance knew that the defeat had been achieved and could not be saved, so he could only command his subordinates to quickly get rid of Liu Beishan's entanglement and quickly leave the battlefield.
Liu Beishan's subordinates have good individual combat effectiveness and good horses, but they lack excellent armor and can only be regarded as light cavalry.
The Blue Dragon Iron Cavalry is a heavy cavalry, of course, the heavy cavalry in the east is not as extreme as the heavy cavalry in the West, the Green Dragon Iron Cavalry is all equipped with fine fish scale armor, this armor is slightly heavier than the Saron Continental Ranger battle armor, and the defense is slightly stronger.
In the face of such heavy cavalry, Liu Beishan of course did not dare to charge head-on, he could only rely on the horse briskly, around the Qinglong Iron Cavalry, and attack from a distance with cavalry.
The knight was concerned about the battle on Huo Shizhen's side, and he was not in the mood to entangle with Liu Beishan, so he simply ignored Liu Beishan's harassment, and urged his subordinates to forcibly rush through Liu Beishan's obstruction and gallop towards the main battlefield, but the infantry was defeated too quickly......
The knight was also a decisive man, and when he saw that he could not do anything, he immediately turned his horse's head and quickly left the battlefield with the speed of his cavalry.
In fact, there was another reason why the knight fled so resolutely, there were two fifth-level powerhouses on his side, one died and one rebelled, and without the support of the strong, he was really afraid that Bai Qi would borrow the hand of the strong man on that side to kill him.
