Chapter 100: Heading to the Battlefield
The next day, as soon as the sky was dawn and the war meal had been full, the neatly dressed Andris army had already completed the assembly in the city, and the passionate assembly horn continued to sound, accompanied by the trembling sound of the armor of the soldiers when they moved, and the entire royal capital of Kevin City was awakened.
Many people also stayed up all night, and they spontaneously walked out of their homes when they learned that the decisive battle was coming, holding the Andris flag that had been made overnight, standing on the side of the street, quietly waiting for the soldiers who were about to go out to pass by, so as to cheer them on with all their might! They knew very well that most of the hundreds of thousands of soldiers who went out to fight would probably not be able to return to the city alive, but this made the people want to pay their respects to the soldiers even more.
Regardless of whether they were friends or foes before, most of these soldiers from the eight surrounding countries are now defending them, the Andriesians, and they are not a conscienceless people!
Charles Andris stood neatly on the city wall in armor, refreshed, he pressed his sword in his hand, and watched with satisfaction the hundreds of thousands of soldiers who were still decadent and routed a few days ago gathered at his feet, these elites of the eight countries have completely recovered their morale and fighting spirit, and even more fanatical than before, in the face of such an army, King Charles's heart is full of pride. Today, he will lead them to smash the monster army that has ravaged the Western Continent for thousands of years, and send out the unyielding roar of humanity to the whole world!
There was a sound of armor leaves, and the generals, who were also wearing armor, walked up the road to the city wall.
"Your Majesty!"
The generals saluted their kings and commanders with a beating of their chests.
"Have all the armies arrived?" King Charles asked.
General Barnes stepped forward and saluted, "Back to the king, all the armies and horses are ready to go, and now they are all standing in the city pass. ”
"Good!"
King Charles nodded, a smile on his face. This time, he will not only lead the 110,000 infantry army adapted from the original defeated army and the Andris Praetorian Guard, but also expand the original light cavalry unit, absorbing thousands of defeated soldiers who had been light cavalry to join, integrating a light cavalry corps of 8,000 people, and the war mage corps has also been further strengthened, and has also absorbed some of the defeated troops, and now there are 7,000 people, but King Charles does not plan to use them with the original royal war mage regiment, This is because chanting forbidden spells requires a tacit cooperation produced by long-term cooperative training, and the new two thousand war mages obviously do not have this ability, so these two thousand people were organized into two battalions by him, and they are on the front line of the battle, and the mission of these war mages is to help the spear infantry phalanx stabilize its position, and use the magic barrier to resist the blood captives and iron cavalry charging formation.
The only thing that has not changed is the Praetorian Heavy Cavalry Regiment, the training requirements of this legion are too strict, not only the people need to be trained hard, but even the war horses need to be carefully adjusted, so it is impossible to replenish the troops by absorbing the routed troops, and at the same time, this most elite cavalry regiment will also become the most important card in the hands of King Charles.
"Then let's get out of the city and line up!"
When King Charles saw that everything was ready, he gave the order to go on the expedition.
"Yes!" The generals replied in unison, and hurried down the city walls, the total of 130,000 troops were now assigned to them, and they needed to return to their own troops to command the battle.
"Jamie, you wait." King Charles called.
"Your Majesty." The hussar general, Jamie Bunier, stopped and turned back to face his king.
King Charles looked at him solemnly: "The task of covering the infantry formation will be handed over to you in a moment!" ”
"Don't worry, your majesty!" Jamie immediately replied loudly, his face showing no fear.
King Charlie's voice trembled slightly: "Jamie, you must come back alive!" ”
Before the battle begins, when the two armies are in formation, the light cavalry of both sides will go out in a big way, trying to harass and delay the opponent's formation, win a certain advantage for their own side, and if the other side is really unbearable, they can also disrupt the opponent's array and lay the foundation for their own victory.
However, the latter situation rarely occurs, under normal circumstances, the light cavalry of both sides are fighting on the battlefield, and even the effect of harassment and retardation is very limited, but when facing the first blood clan in the cavalry world, this link becomes extremely dangerous!
The light cavalry is equipped with simple equipment, poor protection, and is generally used to fight bad battles, charging into battle is not its strength, and the cavalry of the blood clan is fast and sensational, and the armor protection is amazingly high, and such an opponent is engaged, the mobility of the light cavalry is not advantageous at all, naturally there is no way to fight, can only be hard, but in the face of the blood clan's three-layer heavy armor and killing weapons, these light cavalry are too fragile, only to be crushed, for example, this is like a tank crashing into a bicycle, The bike can't hit the tank anyway......
And the reason why King Charles is so solemn is because Jamie's light cavalry may be the first legion on the human side to suffer heavy casualties in this battle!
Jamie shook his head and smiled bitterly, for the first time he did not obey his king's order, but slammed his breastplate and said emotionally: "Your Majesty, Jamie Bunier has no regrets in this life to serve under the king!" With that, he turned around without hesitation and walked down the wall!
"Jamie......!"
King Charles clenched his fists in regret, but after a while, he let go again, he couldn't have asked Jamie Bunier to come back and change someone's place, which was unfair to the other person, and for the commander, fairness was the key to winning the hearts of the army!
Only by having clear rewards and punishments and setting an example can the soldiers be obedient and the soldiers use their lives!
"Your Majesty, General Jamie, he ......" At this time, they were also dressed neatly and walked up to the city.
When he passed by just now, Buchen keenly noticed that Jamie's eyes were a little red, which surprised him very much, because this light cavalry general was the most familiar person in King Charles's army, and they had been dealing with him for the longest time, and the reason why he appeared here was captured by Jamie......
As far as he knew, Jamie Bunier was not a sentimental man, he was iron-willed, tenacious, and like many of King Charles' generals, he was a man of iron bones!
Looking at Buchen inexplicably pointing at Jamie Bunier who walked down the city wall, King Charles barely managed to squeeze out a smile. He said something meaningful: "Brother Henry, each of us has our own destiny. ”
"Fate?" Buchen was confused by his words, too, what kind of fate do you say? He chewed on this sentence and waited for King Charles's next words, but he didn't expect the other party to explain more.
"Brother Henry, how are you doing today? Is it possible to fight a strong enemy for 300 rounds? King Charles asked with a smile, changing the subject.
As soon as Buchen heard him mention this, he immediately put the fate and stuff behind him just now, and put on an excited look, anyway, he couldn't figure it out, did he?
"No problem! Your Majesty will look at it, as soon as the war starts, I will go straight to the Chinese army captured by the other side, and promise to take back the head of their general! Buchen patted his chest and said.
"Henry!"
"Second goods!"
Ai Ai whispered from behind as a reminder. Fei Fei was more direct, raising her leg and kicking him.
"Ouch! I said, what are you doing? Buchen glared at Fei Fei angrily.
Fei Fei turned her head, didn't look at him, and pouted, "Who made you not have a long memory?" ”
Buchen was called a big fire, and he jumped on his feet and said, "Long hairy memory? Like I failed? ”
"Shh Fei Fei pursed her lips and stopped talking, because Buchen seemed to ...... It really doesn't seem like you've ever failed, huh?
King Charles smiled bitterly, stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder, and persuaded him in a good voice: "Brother Xian's courage and loneliness are known, but it is too anxious to rush into battle as soon as the battle begins. ”
Buchen nodded, he naturally believed in Charlie Andris's character.
"Good." King Charles smiled and said, "Then Brother Xian will hand over the opportunity of today's attack to Lone!" ”
Buchen frowned, a little reluctant, but he had already nodded just now, and it was not easy to regret it at this time.
"Then leave it to Your Majesty." He had no choice but to say.
"Hmm." King Charles also nodded, and swore solemnly: "Lone will definitely not disappoint the virtuous brother, the head of the Marquis of the Blood Clan, Nicklaus, must be in the pocket of the virtuous brother!" ”
"It's a deal!" didn't listen to his assurance, and couldn't help but be overjoyed.
"It's a deal!" King Charles repeated it cautiously.
By this time the gates had been opened, and Jamie Bunnier's light cavalry had already rushed out of the city.
King Charlie, hearing the sound of rumbling horses' hooves, glanced back at Jamie and the others, and the smile on his face immediately disappeared.
"Brother Xian, it's not too early, we should also prepare to go out of the city!"
"Good!" Buchen agreed, and was about to go down to the city, but at this moment, a knight with a panicked face ran up from the road.
"What's wrong? Why are you so flustered? King Charles asked displeasedly.
"Back to ...... Back to the king, Sean ...... Sean Sterling has escaped from prison! The knight replied breathlessly.
"What?!" Hearing this, King Charles and Buchen's eyes widened.
