Chapter 140: The Final Battle (3)

Although this result had been expected for a long time, seeing that the heavy cavalry corps was only attacked by a burst of magic artillery from the Luxin coalition army, they turned on their backs and fell into chaos, and the generals in the Candela Empire and the Maro Empire still had extremely ugly faces.

These heavy cavalry with heavy armor even on their horses are the only two empires in the entire Sainz continent that have enough strength to form the highest force formed and formed into legions, and in previous wars, as long as these heavy cavalry are dispatched, then in this endless great plain, there is no enemy who can stop them at all.

Even, there is no enemy who can slow down their charge even a little, and will only be directly crushed by them with a frantic charge.

But now, a random magic cannonball will immediately blow up a huge gap in the hoplite cavalry formation, and just one round of attacks will make the originally dense and orderly hoplite charging formation fall apart.

The hoplites, with their men and horses and heavy armor totaling more than two tons, could be invincible in the face of the enemy's endless crossbow arrows in previous battles, and they could still move forward in the face of the enemy's spear array, but they could no longer be invincible in the face of the incomparably powerful explosive power of the magic cannonball.

As the mana cannonballs exploded one by one, countless hoplites were blown into the air like scarecrows, as if their terrifying weight of more than two tons did not exist.

Many of the hoplites had even broken into stumps and had already lost their breath when they flew up.

Starting from a three-kilometer distance from the Luxin coalition army, they began to charge with all their might, and waited until they advanced to a distance of about two kilometers from the Luxin coalition army with great difficulty. The two empires that had previously charged from all directions, a full 20,000 heavily armored knights, could still keep their horses on their horses and continue to charge. There are less than 30% left.

Scattered across the vast plains of Tara. It looks even more sparse.

Seeing this, Marshal Sudirman let out a long sigh.

"It seems that it's time for us, the traditional soldiers, to withdraw from the battlefield. ”

The other generals of the Candela Empire around him all looked gloomy.

Although it has been shown in countless previous battles that the military magic machinery invented by the New Flying Chamber of Commerce has completely changed the mode of war on this continent, it is difficult for these veterans who have fought for many years to reverse the inherent concepts they have formed over the years, and it is difficult for them to accept the new gadget of military magic machinery to dominate the battlefield, so they have always had some inner resistance to military magic machines.

But countless battles are constantly hitting their inner persistence. In today's battle on the plains, the power of the heavy cavalry was originally the easiest to exert and actual combat, but they could still only obtain such miserable results, and the last trace of persistence in their hearts also collapsed.

"Marshal, let those two new legions get out of the station, as for us old fellows...... Just try to cooperate with them. Chief of Staff Porogol put down the telescope to observe the battle situation in the distance, and his face was very solemn. "This is our last chance and I don't think we need to have any more scruples. ”

"As it should be. Marshal Sudirman nodded slightly, and the general issued the order. "Send a signal to the Maro Empire and tell them what we think. ”

Watching the herald leave in a hurry. A general said worriedly: "Lord Marshal, we showed our hole cards so early. In case there is a reservation on the side of the Marlo Empire......"

"It doesn't matter that much. Marshal Sudirman waved his hand. "This is the final battle of our Candela Empire, and we have no choice. If the Maro Empire is smart enough, it knows what to do. ”

"I don't think so. Since the Maro Empire is willing to send reinforcements, it proves that they are well aware of the current situation, so I don't think they should have reservations. ”

This passage of Borogor was unanimously approved by a group of generals.

The order was quickly passed on, and the Candela Empire's army was further approaching the encircled Luxin coalition army.

"Count Darcy, since your Ruerson Kingdom and our alliance formed an alliance, you have always taken the initiative to attack, and this is the first time to defend, right?" Captain Hart in the Luxin coalition formation suddenly spoke.

Count Darcy was stunned for a moment, his eyes rolled as he quickly recounted the battles of the last few months in his mind, and was surprised to find that Captain Hart was right.

Since the formation of a coalition to invade the Candela Empire, the Luxin coalition has been attacking on a large scale, winning every battle.

As for the offensive of the Luxin coalition army on the opposite side, it is difficult for the Candela Empire to even put up decent resistance, and it is naturally impossible to force the Luxin coalition army into a defensive situation.

In the months of fighting, this was the first time that the Luxin coalition had defended the Candela Empire's attack.

Thinking of this, the expression on Count Darcy's face was a little strange.

He didn't think it when he didn't think about it before, but now that he thinks about it, he thinks it's a little too incredible.

Their enemy is the Candela Empire, one of the two most powerful empires on the continent!

And they are just a small Ruerson kingdom, plus a chamber of commerce, to be able to force the Candela Empire to such a point, it is really incredible.

But after thinking about it again, the facts in front of him are here, and he can't help but believe it.

But...... What does Captain Hart mean by this sentence out of nowhere?

Seeing the confusion in Count Darcy's eyes, Captain Hart laughed, slapped Count Darcy on the shoulder, and said heartily: "I'm afraid you don't know, the military magic machinery of our Chamber of Commerce is powerful for attack, but for defense, it is only more powerful." ”

Count Darcy smiled reluctantly, thinking to himself that although I believe that military magic machinery is indeed more powerful for defense, but now I am facing as many as 450,000 enemies, and it is still an elite army composed of the two empires, how can it be so easy to successfully defend against each other's attacks.

Captain Hart ignored the strange look in Count Darcy's eyes, grabbed the magic phone box, and shouted loudly: "Attention the magic artillery brigade, give me full fire! If any enemy cavalry can rush within a kilometer of us, I will write a report to deduct each of you from a month's salary and all bonuses when I return!"

The corners of Count Darcy's mouth twitched.

The gods are above, and he has seen a lot of people on the battlefield who disobey military orders and cut off their heads to urge his soldiers to fight bravely, but he has only seen Captain Hart threaten with salary deductions and bonuses in his life.

However, considering that the guards of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce's escort team claimed to have the lowest monthly salary of twenty gold coins a month, plus all kinds of bonuses could not exceed thirty gold coins, Count Darcy felt that this threat was indeed very terrifying.

If you were to be a soldier of the Ruerson Kingdom, if you were willing to give him thirty gold coins, most of them would not hesitate to send them to their lives immediately.

After all, although the lives of the people of the Ruerson Kingdom have improved greatly in recent years, thirty gold coins are still extremely important to many families, enough to buy a life and have nothing left.

Perhaps it was really affected by Captain Hart's threat, and countless dense fires broke out in the magic artillery brigade of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce Escort Team in the Luxin Alliance, as if countless fireworks suddenly exploded.

Countless magic cannonballs smashed down in all directions like torrential rain, and in an instant, the Sierra Plain around the Luxin coalition army was already drowned in a cloud of fire and explosions.

The first batch of heavy cavalry corps sent by the two empires to launch a charge were only less than thirty percent left in the first wave of counterattacks by the Luxin coalition army, and after this overwhelming bombardment, all of them were wiped out.

Originally, behind the heavy cavalry, the two empires sent a larger number of light cavalry, intending to take advantage of the heavy cavalry to attract the firepower of the Luxin coalition army, find a gap and quickly rush into the Luxin coalition army.

However, under the extremely dense artillery attack of the Luxin coalition army, they did not have any chance to find a gap at all.

At first, they were able to barely evade artillery fire with the high mobility of the light cavalry, and the casualty rate was much lower than that of the heavy cavalry.

But now the Luxin coalition army suddenly went crazy and unleashed such a terrifying artillery attack, which actually shrouded all directions around the Luxin coalition army, so that they could not avoid it at all.

"Boom, boom, boom—"

The sound of explosions resounded throughout the plain of Serra, and as far as the eye could see, there were fires everywhere, and people were turning on their backs everywhere.

In less than two minutes, most of the nearly 40,000 light cavalry legions had been killed and wounded, and none of them were able to maintain a complete formation.

In the Candela Imperial Army, several generals looked at the miserable situation on the battlefield with pale faces, and were speechless for a long time.

They had expected the battle to be so fierce, but they had never expected it to be so fierce.

So far, this battle has only started for less than twenty minutes, and the heavy armored cavalry regiments of the two empires, which were originally claimed to be the highest combat power, have been completely wiped out, and the light cavalry regiment with the highest mobility that they have high hopes for has also been killed and wounded in an instant, and almost lost its combat ability.

And corresponding to them, there is not even the slightest damage on the part of the Luxin coalition army.

Even...... So many hoplites and light cavalry couldn't even rush into the Luxin coalition formation.

"Marshal, or ...... Let those light cavalry retreat......" one of the generals couldn't help but whisper.

"Nope. Give me the order to go down and let them continue to rush forward, and whoever dares to escape will be beheaded on the spot!" Marshal Sudirman had a gloomy face, and there was not the slightest hesitation in his tone. "You have remembered to me that if you want to win this battle, you have to be ruthless! The sacrifice of these knights was not in vain, for they had already consumed a great deal of the enemy's ammunition for us. ”

The generals looked at each other with gloomy faces.

The hoplites and light cavalry, which they had always been proud of and known as the most powerful in their hearts, only played a role in consuming the enemy's ammunition. (To be continued......)
