The drums are bursting, ringing like thunder, and the military flag is hunting, and the majesty is magnificent.

With the iron thorn banner waved by the flag bearer of the Western Army, and the loud horn of the herald that seemed to blow out their lungs, the soldiers of the Western Army, who had been waiting impatiently for a long time, finally began to move forward.

The avant-garde, who had been waiting for a long time, began to trot forward with a neat pace. As for the heavily armed warriors who had been holding their spears and were ready to resist the onslaught of the cavalry of the Northern Army, they quickly put away half of the spears on the ground, or took out the halberd that had been behind them for a long time, or drew the half-man-long broadsword, and marched forward in a non-hurried manner.

However, it is useless for them to be in a hurry, not to mention that with their speed, they are no match for those ordinary clans in light armor, and if you want to talk about the first battle with the northern army, it is natural that the knights of the western realm who have already rushed forward.

After all, a two-legged one is still not as good as a four-legged one, let alone a fully armed one.

There were no heavy cavalry in the Western Army brought by Eyre. Whether it is heavy cavalry or hoplite, as long as the word "heavy" is stained, the weight consumed is enough to make every quartermaster in the army cry bitterly, and he wants to sell himself. The hoplites were fine, at most they gritted their teeth and suffered a little, using fewer pack horses and carrying more on their own backs. However, the horses ridden by the heavy cavalry were much more expensive than human beings, and in order not to lose weight, not only did they have to eat three meals a day like a human being, but they also had to add soybeans and eggs to their feed.

Although it is not necessary to have three horsemen in order to maintain maximum combat strength, even according to the standard of one person and one horse, just those tall horses and strong soldiers are not something that this long-distance expeditionary force can afford. Therefore, the so-called cavalry units of this Western Frontier Army are actually just light cavalry.

However, these recuperated light cavalry were really fast, and it would not be an exaggeration to describe them as off-string arrows. Hearing only the neighing of their horses, they swept past the cavalry of the Northern Frontier who were still entangled with the Holy Cult Army, leaving behind them corpses that had fallen into the mud and panicked ownerless horses.

These cavalry of the Northern Army have been fighting with the Holy Sect Army for a long time, they have long been exhausted, their bones are soft, and they no longer have the momentum that they had when they rushed over at the beginning, so they are naturally not the enemy of these cavalry of the Western Army.

In just one shot, many cavalry of the Northern Army were directly stabbed off their horses, and some were not injured much, but they were still directly knocked off their horses. But this was not luck, but a greater misfortune, they were still alive and fell to the ground, already wounded, how could they dodge the galloping horses behind them?

There were still some of the northern knights who survived and knew that there was no chance of survival, but none of them flinched, and none of them surrendered, still chanting the slogan "Long live the falcon", and fought fiercely, and in the end only a few people remained, but they still staggered and rushed towards the Holy Cult with their weapons, and finally they were all killed in front of the battle.

"I have heard for a long time that there are many heroes and warriors in the Northland, and today I have seen it and it is worthy of my name. Seeing this scene, Al sincerely admired the left and right.

Xu is to prove that the warriors of the Western Frontier are no less heroic than the Northern Frontier, and the attacks launched by the soldiers of the Western Frontier are as fierce as a storm.

The first to attack was naturally the lightning-fast light cavalry, and they were not like the northern cavalry that had preceded them, but rather the opposite. Before and after rushing out of the formation, they were extremely skillfully divided into two teams, turned into two beautiful arcs, like a full moon scimitar, and stabbed towards the two weak flanks of the northern army. However, when they reached the place where they were an arrow in front of the northern army, they suddenly stopped their horses and raised their bows and arrows to shoot a rain of arrows. After inflicting a certain amount of casualties, when the Northern Army sent troops to pursue, they fled directly, and when the pursuers turned back, they also turned back to the two flanks of the Northern Army and continued to shoot arrows to harass.

In this way, the soldiers on both flanks of the Northern Army were harassed in a miserable way, and even the formation was a little loose.

And Reinhardt the Great's previous decision to use cavalry as an outcast showed its consequences at this time. Without the pursuit of the cavalry of the Northern Army, these cavalry of the Western Army came and went whenever they wanted, roaring back and forth in front of the Northern Army formation, extremely arrogant, as if they were visiting their own backyard, and the Northern Army had no way to take this cavalry for a while.

For a while, the morale of the army was greatly lost, and when the soldiers of the two armies began to fight, in the face of the onslaught of the western army, the northern army slowly began to be at a disadvantage, and the position was a little unstable.

However, when those "stone statuettes" finally arrived in front of the battle, relying on these "giants" on the battlefield, the northern army also slowly stabilized its position. After all, they are all elite soldiers in a hundred battles, and they will never collapse at the touch of a button, until they are defeated on a large scale.

However, Al was also prepared in his heart, knowing that this battle should be a fierce battle, and it was impossible for his side to win easily. And for those "stone statuettes", who had the experience of fighting with the dwarves in the previous life, he was also prepared.

I saw some sturdy soldiers in the Western Army, each carrying several heavy infantry repulsion rifles thrown in the rear, flashing left and right, jumping up and down, and actually touched the territory of these stone statues and puppets under the cover of their comrades.

These repulsive rifles were made of fine iron, about three meters long, and were used by hoplites to resist the onslaught of cavalry, and these spears were so "long" that they were naturally useless when the two armies were engaged in a battle and the short arms were in contact. Naturally, the hoplites would not march with these "big guys" to fight, not only because they were heavy but also hindered their movements, so they were thrown in the rear and recycled after the battle.

However, these horse rejection guns had an effect at this time, and these specially selected western soldiers attacked under the chassis of the stone statue puppet under the cover, which was a dead end, and the soldiers of the northern border army on the stone statue puppet could not see here at all, and naturally they could not attack them with arrows. After these soldiers from the western border touched it, they quickly stuffed the horse repellents into the chassis of these stone statues one by one.

After hearing only a few screeching sounds that made people squeak and "click", these giant-like stone statues slowly stopped, and they could no longer move forward! Although the soldiers of the Northern Army could still shoot arrows from the opening on the stone statues, they would have no effect at all if they were far away. What's more, the soldiers of the Western Frontier Army originally watched these behemoths slowly crush towards their own military formation, and naturally had a sense of depression and fear in their hearts, seeing that these stone statues were forced to stop by their own tactics, this suppressed fear suddenly disappeared, and their morale was greatly boosted!

On the battlefield, it was already said that there was a trend of "one thing and the other growing", and the morale of the western army was greatly boosted, and the morale of the northern army naturally began to decline again, and the entire battle situation slowly tilted towards the western side.
