156 The war sheep are fierce
The Stormcastle cavalry fought bloodily, but they only had five hundred men on the left and right flanks, and they faced multiplied mountain cavalry. The war horses were still galloping, but the knights sitting on the horses kept falling, and after some ownerless war horses rushed over, they stood in place blankly, not knowing what to do next.
The Storm Army cavalry regiment charged in a round, and almost half of them were still on horseback, and the opponent's mountain cavalry was almost the same number in terms of the number of people who fell.
Duke felt heartache for this one-to-one battle damage, but as a cavalry regiment that had been established for less than half a year and the vast majority of the cavalry were newly recruited, the Storm Cavalry Regiment had done a very good job, and they had caused equal damage in the face of twice as many opponents.
"Cavalry regiment, attack!"
As Cassel charged, he let out a roar and led the Storm Troopers to turn their horses, ready to continue the charge. Because only by defeating the mountain cavalry in the fastest time can they avoid being rushed to the encirclement by the Bright Army, so they don't have any time to delay.
Cassel's face was covered with blood at the moment, and the storm armor on his body also had two deep sword marks, and he could even see blood seeping out of it. Although the defense of the Storm Armor is strong, it is still very difficult to achieve 100% defense under the sprinting power of the War Horse, and if you can do this, the Storm Armor is already qualified.
The other knights, without the slightest hesitation, directly turned their horses' heads and prepared to charge again. As the inferior side, they launched a counter-charge far faster than the Alpine Army, and when their horses galloped again, the Alpine cavalry had just finished the formation.
The most powerful side of the cavalry is the sprinting power brought by the war horse, once whoever is faster and whose war horse is more explosive, then it is the opponent who falls off the horse. Faced with such a situation, the knight captain of the Alpine Army frantically urged the knights, maybe he didn't expect that the opponent would be so powerful and fight for his life!
The second round of charge began, and this round of the Storm Knights began to take advantage, especially the previous group of mountain knights who had not yet run, they were like wheat fields blown down by the wind, and they were cut down in unison.
The blood of the enemy made the Storm Troopers even more aggressive, they brandished their sabers faster, and even some of them were cut by the enemy, they had only one goal, that is, to crush the enemy army in front of them, and cover the retreat of all the Storm Army into the Storm Fortress.
Compared to the hard battles of the Storm Cavalry, the Dwarven Sheep Cavalry was much easier, and these goats were simply freaks, even jumping over the head of the Alpine Knight.
I don't know how this rare war sheep cavalry and a small tribe like Iron Hammer insisted on preserving. Moreover, the strong strength of the dwarves basically uses blunt weapons, even if there is no armor breaking, what axes and hammers go down, and the mountain cavalry will directly knock off their horses.
After a round of charge, even if the mountain cavalry had an advantage in numbers, the casualties were at least several times that of the dwarf war sheep cavalry. If it was really the same number of one-on-one, maybe the Alpine Knights would have been directly defeated in this round, and the gap between the two sides was too big.
Duke had considered the strength of the goat cavalry before, because when he saw these goats, he felt that they were not the kind of goat creatures on earth, but completely a bloodthirsty carnivore. Moreover, the Alpine Knights have also recently expanded their troops, and most of the high-quality war horses have been acquired by Storm Castle, although the number has expanded to two thousand, but their combat effectiveness has not actually improved, because their expansion time is shorter than that of Storm Castle.
As a result, I didn't expect that the ferocity of the war sheep cavalry completely exceeded Duke's expectations, and the war sheep cavalry of this strength, even if it was against the Teutonic knights, without the blessing of the Light Priest, Duke didn't feel that there would be any disadvantages, the only regret was that this kind of war sheep was even rarer than war horses, and the legend said that it was the product of a hybrid of Warcraft, just like the war horses of the Holy See Knights mixed with Warcraft genes.
And the cavalry is a noble army, which requires a lot of financial and material resources to be able to raise, and now the dwarf tribes in the human kingdom of the general continent are all small tribes like the Iron Hammer Tribe, and it is not easy to have dwarven heavy infantry, let alone dwarf cavalry.
Like the 1st Storm Cavalry Regiment, the Dwarven Cavalry Regiment also turned around at the first moment, preparing to launch a second charge towards the Alpine Cavalry Regiment. This time, the goal of the Dwarven Legion was to completely defeat the Alpine Cavalry, surprise the Teutonic Knights from behind, and complete the encirclement of the Teutonic Knights with the 1st Storm Cavalry Regiment.
If the strategic purpose of the encirclement is achieved, then not only the first regiment of the Storm Army will break the siege, but even the cavalry corps of the Holy See Front will be encircled by the inferior forces of the Storm Army. Once the cavalry is completely wiped out, it means that the Papal Army has lost the ability to maneuver quickly, and then the possibility of Stormcastle being maneuverable is greater.
The war is going in favor of Stormfort, something that no one expected, including Duke. Especially Ore, even if Storm Castle doesn't have a stronghold to defend it, they still have the courage to fight in the field, and the result is that the field battle still has an advantage?
It is simply an incredible thing that the Teutonic Knights, one of the three major knights of the Holy See, have not broken through the position of the Storm Army until now. Even if Ole had seen the battle between the Storm Army and the Spartan Legion before, he still didn't take the Storm Army seriously, or the general lord army on the continent, the Holy See didn't take it seriously.
As a result, reality taught him a lesson, and Stormcastle was so stubbornly withheld, and there was even a certain chance of joining the Teutonic Knights. Although the Teutonic Knights in Andorra la Vella are only a small detachment, the Teutonic Knights are also the weakest of the three major orders of the Holy See.
But as one of the three major cavalry regiments of the Holy See, the Teutonic knights represent the face of the Holy See, from the battle of the rise of mankind to the present thousands of years, the number of times the Holy See knights have been surrounded and annihilated is simply a handful, let alone surrounded and annihilated by a small territory of a viscount.
So in order to prevent such a thing from happening, Ole finally decided to lead the Holy See Priest Corps to intervene magically, and they will directly use the "Judgment Light" in the light magic to directly destroy the defense line of the Storm Legion!
Once the 1st Regiment of the Storm Army is defeated, then the Teutonic Knights will be completely liberated, and at the same time, with the absolute superiority in numbers, they will complete the counterattack against the Storm Troopers, and then all the advantages will be in vain!
