Chapter 293: Mangu

"But...... Your Excellency, the enemy is not within range of the archers!" an officer of the Blue Wolf Legion whispered to an exasperated General Clark Gallup. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

To be able to be the commander of the four major legions, General Clark Gallup is of course not a straw bag, but he didn't expect that the range of these Mongolian cavalry's cavalry bows was far beyond his imagination, and even the range of the legion archers' longbows was not comparable to the other party.

After two heavy breaths, General Clark Gallup ordered: "Order the cavalry squadron on the left flank to attack and destroy these enemy forces." I suspect they must have something to do with that Marquis Leo!"

Although the Blue Wolf Legion is an infantry legion, it is also equipped with 500 regimental light cavalry, which usually perform reconnaissance, raid, pursuit and other tasks.

The herald quickly passed the Legion's orders to the Legion's cavalry squadron. Just as the green wolf cavalry rode out to attack, the spear-wielding soldiers in front finally barely supported themselves under the cover of the giant shieldmen who rushed from behind. If those giant shields had come any later, the gunmen might have collapsed.

After all, sticking to his post against the enemy's constantly falling arrows, his colleagues around him kept falling, and there were constantly pieces of bowstring sound and feather arrows whistling in his ears, such a pressure was not something that ordinary people could bear. Although the soldiers of the Blue Wolf Legion have been tempered in the war of the orc invasion and are enough to be called elite, it is the first time that they can only be beaten passively if they can't fight back.

The centurion of the Mongol cavalry, Asgen, saw the cavalry on the flank of the Green Wolf Legion outflanking him, and with a whistle, he led his cavalry to turn their horses and turn to the right flank of the Blue Wolf Legion's formation. As they rode their horses, they set up their bows and released arrows, and the feathered arrows continued to fall in the circle of the Blue Wolf Legion through projectiles, almost every arrow carrying a blood flower.

Although the war horses of the green wolf cavalry are much faster than those of the Mongolian horse gods, and the speed is also faster, because Asgen saw the opportunity early and led the team to circle in the opposite direction, the green wolf cavalry could not catch up with the Mongolian cavalry for a while.

Standing in the middle of the formation and seeing those strange cavalrymen with the green wolf cavalry constantly circling and shooting his own soldiers as they ran, General Clark Gallup's eyes froze, he did not expect these enemies to be so cunning and difficult.

"Order the Legion to be in a thousand-strong brigade to round up the enemy, and tell the cavalry squadron to divide into two teams to outflank them, how long do they want to be tricked like this?" commanded General Clark Gallup in a loud voice.

The Green Wolf Legion quickly changed formation, making it impossible for Asgen to circle around the formation, but the Mongol cavalry apparently didn't care. Under Asgen's command, they controlled the horses under their crotches to run in a large circle and ran into the distance, focusing all their attention on the green wolf cavalry chasing after them.

As the Blue Wolf cavalry approached, the Mongol light cavalry began to throw backwards, and the arrows that rained down caused great casualties to the cavalry of the Blue Wolf Legion. Since there were only five hundred people, they were divided into two teams, so the number of young wolf cavalry in each team was about the same as that of the Mongol light cavalry. Asgen was keenly aware of this as he galloped, and he planned to focus on the enemy army chasing after his ass first, and then settle accounts with the enemy army that planned to outflank him in advance.

Under the reflexive kite shooting tactics of the Mongolian cavalry named Mangu, the tighter the green wolf cavalry chased, the greater the casualties, but they still had no way to take these Mongolian cavalry. Although the Blue Wolf Cavalry was also equipped with cavalry bows, there were still a few cavalry that could accurately hit the enemy on galloping horses, and most importantly, their cavalry bows were only one or two stones at most, which could not be compared with the strong bows of the Mongol cavalry.

The most powerful thing about the Mangu tactics of the Mongolian cavalry is that even if your riding skills, archery skills, and strong bows are the same as those of the Mongolian cavalry, the range is far inferior to that of the Mongolian cavalry due to the escape, chase, front and back, and you can only look at their backs and sigh in vain.

Now the captain of the green wolf cavalry behind the Mongolian cavalry, Venn, is full of grievances and depression, if you want to talk about martial arts, physical fitness, horse equipment, the green wolf cavalry has to throw those Mongolian cavalry a street, but they just can't catch up with those Mongolian cavalry, they are next to the arrows in vain, let alone kill the enemy in this way, it won't take long for all of them to be shot to death.

Glancing at the cavalry team outflanked in the distance from a distance, Vane decided to slow down and distance himself, at least to let his men slow down, and then be shot like this, maybe before the other party was outflanked, his cavalry team would all die.

Although Vane and his cavalry slowed down, Asgen made a decision that made him stunned and scolded. As the Blue Wolf Cavalry behind him slowed down, Asgen ordered the Mongolian light cavalry to slow down their horses as well, and took the opportunity to replace the spare horses, and then continued to reflexively throw arrows at the Blue Wolf Cavalry.

Looking at the enemy's raining down of feathered arrows, Vane blocked as he turned to look at his cavalry. Originally, there were only about 100 of the original 250 light cavalry left in the short period of pursuit, which was a loss of more than half, which made Vane a little unbearable.

The cavalry team that was carrying out the outflanking task in the distance saw the slowing down here, and knew that something must have happened, so they hurriedly accelerated and rushed over. Vane gritted his teeth and ordered his cavalry, "Turn around, let's retreat!"

When the Mongol light cavalry, who had turned back to shoot arrows, saw that the enemy was about to run, they were willing to give up, and the skilled Mongol cavalry pulled the reins of their horses and turned around at a very small angle, even before the green wolf cavalry made the turn.

Vane turned with the wolf cavalry, thinking that even if he couldn't defeat them, he could bring them to his own formation and give them to the archers to teach them a lesson, or cooperate with the outflanking cavalry to return to attack. Just as Vane was thinking about it, he suddenly heard an exclamation from the cavalry on his side, and a terrible sound of breaking the air sounded in his ears, and an arrow hit Vane's neck accurately, knocking him off his horse.

In the distance, Asgen raised his riding bow with a contemptuous smile and shouted loudly to the Mongol cavalry beside him: "Children, kill these frightened lambs!"

When the Mongolian cavalry saw Asgen shoot the opposing officer, they shouted and cheered loudly, and the speed of the arrow in their hands increased significantly, and in a few breaths, a whole group of green wolf cavalry was shot to death by them.
