Commander Kabu led the Black Hawk cavalry to charge towards the Storm Army's array, and he had already seen the change in the Storm Army's formation on the way to the sprint. But in the face of this situation, the Black Hawk cavalry has no choice of retreat, because if they do not rush into battle, then the casualties of the Black Hawk Army will be greater.

Now there is only one thought in Kabu's mind, and that is to rely on the numerical superiority of the Black Eagle Army and the strong impact of the cavalry to forcibly break through the carriage formation that Duke is now arranged!

The horse's hooves rumbled, and even as the Black Hawk Knight approached, Duke felt the ground shake like an earthquake. All the Storm Army soldiers clenched their spears tightly, but there was not much nervousness or fear on their faces, because the carriage formation in front of them gave them good cover, which they had not been treated in the field before.

As the Black Hawk Knight rushed to him, the musketeers began to fire at this time, and the loud sound of the three-stage row of guns was like thunder, and Duke's ears were buzzing, this was just a musket, if the storm cannon appeared in the future, how loud would it be?

Now Duke also understands a little, why when the Sea Clan charged the hydroelectric factory, he was directly frightened back by the sound of artillery, as the natives of this world, it is normal for them to be startled when they have not heard this kind of loud noise, and the Sea Clan Fishman warriors are far from the discipline of human soldiers, and scattering birds and beasts is their basic operation.

The cavalry that sprinted in front fell in rows, but the number of them fell was far less exaggerated than the previous Black Hawk military phalanx, because the cavalry formation was far less dense than the phalanx, and the skirmish line waited until after the First World War before it began to slowly spread.

It is this kind of dense phalanx combat that makes soldiers become meat grinders in the face of modern firearms, and the huge casualties in World War I are caused by the intensive charge of these phalanxes.

The cavalry in the front row fell, but the cavalry in the back still rushed forward and backward, only they crashed either into the spears or the partition of the storm carriage. If this kind of impact had been the previous Storm Army, it is estimated that the shieldmen and pikemen would have broken bones.

But now with the cover of the storm carriage, the most that could be done was that the planks of the carriage were shattered, and then the pikemen, who were hiding behind the partitions, stabbed the Black Hawk cavalry to death with one shot.

Originally, Duke thought that this was a tough battle, but when the second round of gunfire rang out, Duke was surprised to find that there was a serious confusion within the Black Hawk cavalry that had been charging, and these war horses were not attacking in the direction of the storm army, but began to run around, and even caused many war horses and cavalry to crash together, as if there was a problem with the war horses.

When he first saw it, Duke still didn't understand what was going on, could it be that there really a god in this world would help this thing tomorrow, and even God would help him?

But thinking about Duke, I don't think it's right, because the main god of this world is the god of light, and he happens to be the biggest heresy of the god of light, even if the god of light is blind, it probably won't help him, a believer in scientific atheism.

However, this hilarious thought was only for a moment, and Duke immediately understood the reason for the situation of the Black Hawk cavalry warhorse. The reason is actually very simple, that is, the sound of musket fire and the smoke of gunpowder frightened these horses, causing them to lose control.

The war horses of this era, unlike the military horses of later generations, have undergone adaptive training to the sound of explosions, and even plug their ears and so on. These war horses are the first time to hear the sound of muskets firing, there was nothing far away before, and now that they are fired at such a close distance, the war horses are naturally easily frightened.

That is, because the war horses began to be frightened on a large scale, which led to the chaos of the Black Eagle cavalry's attack, so that now they can't even maintain the basic formation of the attack, and they collide with each other, and the Black Eagle knights who fell to the ground were ruthlessly trampled to death by the war horses.

When he saw this situation, Duke knew that his opportunity had come, and as long as he could seize this opportunity, then the Black Hawk Knight in front of him would be completely collapsed. So at this time, Duke began to shout loudly: "Storm army press forward, Musketeers prepare!"

Almost at Duke's command, the carriage defense began to open one opening after another, and shield axemen began to swarm out, and these axemen were specially prepared by Duke to cut the horse's legs. Now the Black Hawk cavalry is completely out of control, and it is impossible to fight back against the Storm Army.

On the other hand, the storm musketeers also began to shoot wildly, and they didn't even care about the tactical actions of three-stage shooting, as long as they kept the gunfire continuous, they could continue to scare these war horses.

In the face of the sudden chaos and the one-sided situation, even Duke Blair looked at the scene in front of him with a face full of disbelief, and he didn't know how to make the next offensive plan, because the entire Black Eagle Army was now in a situation of being beaten passively.

"Lord Duke, what should I do now, the Black Eagle cavalry can't rush up at all, and all the horses are out of control. ”

The attendant officer standing on the side asked anxiously, the Black Hawk cavalry is the elite of the Black Hawk Army, if you die in battle, it will be forgotten, and now that your horse is out of control, it is too embarrassing to die in this unclear situation.

"Let the Black Hawk cavalry retreat, and let the Black Hawk Second Legion go up again!"

Duke Blair gave the order in an instant, this can be said to be a way to lose the car to protect the commander, the Black Hawk cavalry is too precious to be wasted in such a place.

As Duke Blair's order was delivered, the Black Hawk Knights in the back row began to do their best to control the retreat of their horses, but in less than half an hour, the chaos resulted in up to 3,000 casualties among the Black Hawk Knights, half of which were due to the cannibalism of the war horses.

Seeing that the Black Hawk Knight had retreated, Duke did not announce the pursuit, because it was difficult to pursue on two legs, which was also the most embarrassing place for the infantry in the face of the cavalry, that is, there was no way to expand the results.

So Duke also made a quick decision, immediately shrunk the formation, and began to deal with the second legion of the Black Eagle Army with all his might, as long as the infantry phalanx in front of him was completely available, even if the gap in the encirclement was really opened, Princess Jina's hope of salvation was much greater.

The Second Legion of the Black Eagle Army, also under the call of the officer, launched a charge towards the Storm Army, because if you don't rush, you will wait for death, and if you rush, you may have a chance to live. But Duke's expression was very indifferent, they still used the charging method of marching in line with each other, and there was no chance of survival!
