The cavalry of the Principality Army was already in sight, and it looked like a mixed cavalry, with light cavalry in front of it and heavy cavalry slowly following behind. They did not carry any baggage, but were in a posture of being able to feed the enemy as soon as they were paid. Such a strategic idea cannot be regarded as wrong, because the cavalry of the principality originally came to loot military supplies, so they could not bring their own military supplies with them, right? Moreover, since the opponent was a rabble, and he was the vanguard, there was no reason why he could not defeat it. Robbery is their job.

It's just that this rabble exists in the imagination of the military top brass of the principality. No matter how bad the armies of the other lords are, as long as there are new troops trained by themselves, Lu Jingzhi is extremely confident that he can win.

The light cavalry discovered the baggage base in the woodland, gradually gathered the undead horses, gathered and sorted out the formation, and waited for the heavy cavalry behind to follow. At this time, Lu Jingzhi saw the opponent's clothing clearly, the white battle robe worn by the light cavalry, the upper body of the robe was covered with a silver chain chain armor, the right hand held a long knife for chopping horses, and a small cavalry round shield in the left hand, and the horses sitting down were full of energy. The heavy cavalry pressed up behind was draped in full body armor, holding a heavy cavalry spear in his right hand and a kite-shaped shield in his left hand.

Seeing the heavy cavalry coming up from behind, the light cavalry turned to the back of the line, and the vanguard must be a heavy cavalry with strong and stubborn strength, so as to break through the enemy's defensive position with minimal losses and bring maximum damage to the enemy with a crushing force.

The appearance of the duchy army undoubtedly gave a heavy slap in the face to the lords who still had illusions, and they shouted for their auxiliaries to go to the front and raise their guns, the enemy was coming, so that they could cut off these worthless heads first. The real infantry and cavalry retreated behind the first line of gunfire and made a defensive stance.

However, before the baggage defenders in the woodlands could make any effective deployments, the duchy cavalry began to organize an attack.

When Lao Gasuo saw the enemy attacking, instead of being nervous, he looked relieved, and said to Lu Jingzhi: "Magic makes Your Excellency have no last resort, and the old man really admires it." ”

Lu Jingzhi hurriedly replied humbly: "Lord Gasuo is too humble, what I thought, you must have thought of it too, but you didn't say it." ”

The Duke of Windsor couldn't help but feel a little strange when he saw it, these two guys were cheating on me in the castle, and they hated to kill each other and then quickly, and at this time they seemed to be confidants. It's okay for you to be each other's confidants, think about whether there's anyone you don't understand here, okay?

Old Gasso, who had been with the Duke of Winsha for a long time, knew what he was thinking, and when he saw that he was unhappy and silent, he knew that he was depressed because he couldn't guess it. So he preached for him: "My lord, you see that the enemy is coming as we expected, and as soon as he comes, he can't wait to charge his horse, which is actually a sign of their weak heart. ”

The Duke of Wensha became more and more incomprehensible, and asked: "Isn't it the case that the cavalry storms the defensive line?

Old Gaso smiled and said: "My lord, the enemy army is attacking from afar, but when they arrive in front of the battle, they do not rest for a while, but attack with all their strength regardless of fatigue, even if they can do something, the damage will be great. Why did they not even give themselves time to rest from a long distance, but were eager to attack us? On the one hand, they felt that our army was chaotic and could be bullied, and on the other hand, they also felt that time was running out and that we must be driven out of the woods before the time came. Your Excellency the Magician."

Although Duke Wensha felt that Old Gaso's explanation was quite reasonable, he still said: "The soldiers are very fast, and this is not wrong." After arguing this sentence, he ignored Gasso, and only asked Lu Jingzhi: "My son, do you think the friendly army may be able to resist?"

Lu Jingzhi said: "It's a little bit of a blow." ”

The Duke of Windsor didn't understand what this slight blow meant, so he watched the battlefield intently. I saw that the cavalry of the principality army was lined up in a six-way column, led by heavy armored cavalry, holding huge shields and spears, and picking every spear, and the first spear formation was easily torn apart like a coarse cloth. The light cavalry in the rear followed, slaughtering the infantry along the horizontal lines who had lost the cover of their positions. There were also dozens of cavalry rushing up to block it, like powdered sugar sprinkled in ice fruit wine, and disappeared in an instant. One of the knights, who was an extraordinary martial artist, struggled to block the three spears that pierced him, but was swept off his horse by the fourth, and after hundreds of hooves had stepped on him, there was no sign of protrusion on the ground.

As soon as the hundreds of cavalry burst into the formation, they were immediately pressured from both sides, and as long as they were not the first to bear the brunt, they would attack the enemy column from the flanks. Seeing this, the leader of the enemy army took the column in a circle and rushed towards the road from which he came. Some of the infantrymen who were slow to react were beheaded from behind by the enemy cavalry before they could adjust the direction of their spears. With this entry and exit, the infantry positions of the two lords were completely destroyed, and one of the lords also took in all his cavalry troops.

"Again, the front is almost collapsing. Lu Jingzhi said to Duke Wensha, whose brows were furrowing more and more, "Father, among these lords, you are also highly respected, so it is better to take the opportunity to collect the defeated troops and think it is for your own use." ”

"Oh?!" Duke Wensha's brows furrowed suddenly, "That's a good idea!, but what am I going to do?" If you want to talk about combat, you may not have enough strength in this area, but it is no problem to collect the defeated soldiers.

"Father, as long as you take the soldiers to the settlement site, those exhausted soldiers will definitely regard you as their savior. Lu Jingzhi said, "If the enemy army comes over, I will block them and not let go of a pursuer." ”

Duke Wensha wondered, "It's that simple?"

Lu Jingzhi smiled: "I'm just pushing myself and others." If I can't run anymore, I'll be grateful to see a strong team of knights willing to protect me. And once they rest for a while and their combat strength recovers a little bit, they will pick up their weapons and fight with their protectors so as not to be killed by the attacking enemy troops. ”

The Duke of Wensha thought so, and said, "That's a good thing. He turned his head and beckoned, "Old Gaso, you come with me to clean up those cowards, let them hide in a safe place, and see how my son fights." Gomez, you take a small squad of infantry to fortify the perimeter of the settlement area and avoid being attacked by small groups of enemy troops. "The resettlement area is a temporary glade, and if a small group of enemy cavalry infiltrates it and attack, I am afraid that these defeated soldiers who have not yet settled down will become frightened birds, and they will be frightened away before they can be retracted. From this point, it can be seen that the Duke of Wensha was born in the army and has a lot of combat experience.

Lu Jingzhi looked out of the woodland, and through the sparse trees, he saw that the Duchy cavalry had completed the whole formation on the outskirts of the woodland, and began to attack the defense line of those small lords again. The heavy cavalry in the first row had long since thrown away the cracked cavalry spears and replaced them with one-handed swords. If it is a frontal battlefield, it is very dangerous to do so, and a one-handed sword cannot pre-pick the spear of the stronghold like a cavalry spear, and it is very vulnerable to fatal damage. But here, they are not at all worried. Because these infantry guarding the woodland no longer have the slightest will to fight, they become chaotic after being attacked once. In the eyes of the Principality's cavalry, there are gaps everywhere that can be attacked.

"Your Excellency, such a rebel cannot withstand the attack of the cavalry, please let us attack and help them stabilize their position. Busen led the heavy cavalry and pressed to the front.

Lu Jingzhi shook his head and said, "It's not time yet." ”

Busen hurriedly said: "Your Excellency, if you don't fight, the enemy will drive out all the friendly forces." ”

Lu Jingzhi: "Don't worry, Busen, my warrior, wait a little longer, you and your people will have a chance to play." His children's voice said such mature words that Busen was stunned to hear it.

As they spoke, the Principality's cavalry was already on the second assault, and more infantry were reduced to pulp under their iron hooves. Some of the stronger undead infantrymen who had a slight ability to resist used their shields to block the cavalry's one-handed swords, and tried to slash back, but they couldn't even cut through the hard heavy armor, and then they were knocked away by the huge impact and fell far to the ground.

Behind the line, a small lord couldn't stand it anymore, raised the long sword in his right hand, roared at the guards knights around him, and rushed forward first, and his knights also raised their spears and swords to follow. They took advantage of the fact that the enemy had penetrated the first line of defense and had lost a little momentum, and they stuck to it and became entangled with the enemy. This is a very good tactic that can make the Principality cavalry lose their speed advantage and have to stop and fight a bad fight with themselves. But he had too few knights, less than even a tenth of the opponent's. While the other lords had gathered their soldiers and retreated along the forest road, the Duchy knights had already knocked down the Imperial knights who were close to them one by one and picked them on the knights' spears.

The chaos on the battlefield was slightly beyond Lu Jingzhi's expectations, he had thought that the undead army who were not afraid of death could run to the open space containing them in an orderly manner through the escape passage he had set up, but he underestimated the determination of those lords to retain their strength. Before the Duchy's cavalry could form again, the minor lords gave up their positions and retreated to the center of the woodland, leaving behind a large amount of supplies piled up at the front of the Ecdot glade. The retreating soldiers were barely in formation, and Lu Jingzhi had to send Busen with his troops to maintain order.

The leader of the Duchy's cavalry looked quite cautious, and although the enemy was in disarray and did not look like a deceit, he still sent a group of five light cavalry to probe the piles of supplies on the position. When he was rewarded with the fact that the supplies were genuine military supplies, he was finally relieved and immediately led his troops to pursue the Imperial army, which was still in defeat. In his mind, no one would be able to use such a large amount of supplies as bait just to let his hundreds of cavalry rush through the trap.

If it is an ordinary regimental battle or a staff officer, I am afraid that there is really no such a large-scale plan to lure the enemy, even if you dare to think about it, you may not dare to do it, in case the enemy does not have a plan, but moves the materials away or burns them, you will have to bear the charge of benefiting the enemy. Except for Lu Jingzhi, no one dared to do this.

Lu Jingzhi not only used that pile of strategic materials as bait, but also used the defeated friendly forces as bait. With such a big game, I can't help but miss the opponent.

The cavalry of the principality pursued and killed the unmotivated defeated soldiers unscrupulously, not that these soldiers or auxiliaries were afraid of death and fled—the biggest characteristic of the undead troops was that they were not afraid of death—but that the lords who commanded their retreat would not cooperate at all, and often the soldiers and knights of several units were mixed on the same road, interfering with each other, and naturally unable to resist the principality army that was organized from behind.

When Busen appeared in front of the Duchy army with a cavalry team of more than 400 knights and servants, they even thought that a fleeing rout had gone in the wrong direction, and rushed over with great interest to collect more military merits. After about 120 meters, Busen lowered his visor and ordered to prepare for the attack. When the two armies were 60 meters apart, Busen began to lead the cavalry to charge, while the opposite Principality cavalry was significantly slower than them. It's no wonder that even the tireless undead war horses need to eat ice crumbs to replenish their strength, and the Principality cavalry team killed two back and forth, and pursued the rout non-stop, at this time it was already the end of the crossbow.

Although Busen is not a high-level undead knight and has not comprehended moves such as the Ice Sword or Shockwave, he has a wealth of combat experience and a very keen battlefield intuition. Seeing that the leader of the opposing cavalry team waved his weapons at the same time, he knew that something was wrong, and hurriedly ordered to disperse the formation that was rushing forward. Sure enough, when they were close to 40 meters, several forwards in front of the opposing cavalry team dropped their long swords at the same time, sending out several different qi and rushing towards Busen's cavalry. At this time, the cavalry that had begun to disperse was not dense, but there were still more than a dozen cavalrymen who were shot down and dismounted, and even two cavalrymen were trampled by the horses behind them and their arms were broken, but the knights and most of the cavalry reined in time to dodge

These shockwaves slowed Busen's cavalry a little, but also spread his formation even more. Busen raised the sword in his right hand and slashed forward twice, which was the order to charge with all his strength, and all the cavalry took the reins and rushed in the direction pointed by Captain Busen's sword.

The two streams of iron collided suddenly, sparks, limbs, and minced flesh flew all over the sky, and the hoarse neighing of war horses, the terrifying roar of warriors, the sharp roar of weapons, and the muffled sound of armor falling to the ground were all intertwined. Even Lu Jingzhi, who was hiding behind the barricade and watching the battle, couldn't help but tremble in his heart when he heard it. Fortunately, the battle was over, and Busen's cavalry broke through the cavalry of the Duchy army, and used a gradually converging formation to intercept and kill a tenth of the enemy's cavalry, and only two of them rose and fell, and cut down all the tenths of the Duchy cavalry.

It's not that Busen is so capable of playing, but that he has an advantage in physical strength and tactics. Despite this, Busen's cavalry also lost at least thirty cavalry.

After this hedging, the combat power of the Principality's cavalry team further declined, laying the foundation for Lu Jingzhi's first victory in the Imperial Army.

If you want to know what happens next, let's see the next breakdown.
