Chapter 46: Centaur Hurricane (Asking for a Monthly Pass)
At that time, the Norman Empire was surrounded on three sides, and victory was in sight, and Harold, the commander-in-chief of the Holy See on that side, was helpless and couldn't think of a way. Book mí group 4∴ (8) 0 (sat) 5 Some frightened papal soldiers dropped their weapons and ran back. In layman's terms, this kind of behavior is the so-called running away, fleeing from battle, and throwing away armor.
The soldiers were sure to flee as they threw away their helmets and took off their armor. Get rid of these heavy burdens so that you can run a little faster. Of course, such an act was quickly retributed. After a roar of "Shè!", after nearly half an hour of detour, the Norman lightly armed archers, who finally ran to the back of the battlefield, rained down arrows and turned these unprotected enemies into hedgehogs.
At this point, the Norman Empire, the Norman army, completely cut off the retreat of the Papal army.
"We are going to die here today!" Some of the Holy See soldiers who observed this situation wept bitterly, crying and shouting, shouting and fighting. The Holy See army was also infected, and they saw the robes that fell to the ground one by one, and the enemy soldiers who were fierce and vicious, and they were close to each other. The Holy See army was grieved, and then exuded a mournful aura.
"Since they don't let us live, they want us to die, then we will fight with them! Fight to the death!" Many of the Papal Army soldiers shouted, anger, sorrow, fear, and indifferent will to die, so that they burst into a huge fighting force in an instant. This time, he tried his best to change the situation a little.
"Is this the so-called victory of the mourning soldiers?" Egil watched as the Papal soldiers fought desperately one by one. Snorted. But my heart was also a little shaken. Secretly regretted, if he wasn't so tight, the other party wouldn't have responded like this. Or, again, a heavy cavalry unit, a charge. Directly crush the troops behind the opponent's palace. Then the other party can't fight even if they want to fight hard. It's just that he is greedy for cheap, and his heart is a little impatient, but he sent a team of fast but not strong impact hussars and lightly armed archers.
Unlike the knights, the Norman III horse ridden by the hussars was not a professional charge mount. I used the bō section charge just now. After a long time of rapid marching, the horsepower was greatly lost at this moment. If you rush again, then the war horse will be wasted.
"Damn it. If the No. 5 war horse is cultivated, I won't have to worry about this. Egil thought angrily. At the same time, the troops continued to be dispatched, moving towards the weakest southern defensive line. But he planned to fight hard, desperately lose some troops, and kill all this group of enemies.
"If I am in my hands. There could be a working heavy cavalry—no, even a hussar with well-preserved physical strength. Then I don't have to be so- wait, I see, there really is such an army!" Egir thought of this, and immediately reacted - that is, the Centaur ** army that he had hidden in the snow and had not used in this war.
Five thousand centaurs jīng sharp. One thousand-man super-heavy cavalry, two thousand-man lancers and two thousand-man light cavalry. Such a strong army. It's just that at first, Egil felt that there was something inappropriate to use a formed alien army in a human civil war. Plus the previous campaign was smooth sailing. and did not do so. However, now, seeing the good battle situation, it was interrupted by the other party's grievances. Egil was in a hurry, and he couldn't care about anything. He directly ordered: "Order, dispatch the Centaur ** Legion, and make a detour behind the other party to launch a charge!" The troops originally mobilized will not move for the time being. Relax a little!"...,
This moment the Centaur ** Legion. And other conscripts were in the large camp a few kilometers away. The sound of killing on the battlefield shook the sky. Even if there were hundreds of trumpets, they might not be able to hear them clearly. So Egil gave the order. The knight of the guard only conveyed his orders for the second half. A few other fast-paced horses ran down the watchtower, mounted their mounts, and galloped towards their own barracks.
In a short time, I heard the earth tremble, as if a large army of cavalry was rushing by. The sound of soldiers on both sides on the battlefield shook the sky, but they couldn't stop the sound of horses' hooves. After a while, I saw the direction of the northern camp, and five thousand centaurs and horses were all draped and holding riding spears. It was still neat as it ran - even a little tighter than the trained Norman knights.
Back then, people praised the Jīng Sharp Cavalry, saying that it was a combination of men and horses. It's just a name. However, this centaur clan is truly a human-centaur one. Naturally, its power is much stronger than that of human knights. And the Norman Emperor was a gentleman who was willing to pay for his money. Back then, five hundred jīng sharp heavy armor centaurs could make General Méng Gu Su Butai speechless. And such a heavily armored centaur warrior, there are a thousand under the command of Egil!
A large number of centaur warriors galloped past where the Norman emperor was, and was protected by a group of heavily armored centaur warriors in the middle, wearing half-body plate armor and holding a longbow, the heroic centaur lord Printhia raised her head and smiled at Egil, like a hundred huā blooming, making the Norman emperor dizzy for a while.
Immediately afterward, the centaur regiment turned around, bypassing the soldiers of the two armies who were fighting in the battle of Jī Lie Jiāo, and went directly to the back of the Holy See army. The two thousand centaurs shè opened their bows and arrows, and the large compound bow, which was barely inferior to the power of the heavy crossbow, opened like a full moon, and the three consecutive rounds of shè knocked down the papal guard shè wearing plate chain composite armor on the opposite side. There was a gap in the formation at that time. Immediately afterward, the heavily armored centaur warrior wearing a four-millimeter-thick full-body plate armor raised his four hooves and leveled the wall, like a mountain collapsing and the sea pouring in, and launched a fierce charge with incomparable momentum and speed!
"Enemy !!" In the hands of the centaur shè three wheels of speed shè, there was a horn of the soldiers of the Holy See like killing pigs. Seeing a group of heavily armored cavalry rushing towards the opposing side, some Holy See soldiers with bows and crossbows in their hands turned their heads and aimed at the centaur shè. The bow is an oriental-style long compound bow, a crossbow that is native to Italy. The Holy See pays for the purchase, and it is naturally first-class. However, shè only made a clanging sound on top of the centaur's heavy armor. Either it was bounced off, or it was simply broken in two. Doesn't hurt a single centaur warrior at all.
Seeing that the bow and arrow were useless. A group of soldiers looked left and right, and it was either the enemy or their own people, and there was not even a place to hide. The papal guards armed with cross guns gritted their teeth, and dozens of them formed a formation. Raise your shield and grapple your cross-spear in the hope of being able to stand up to the charge of the heavily armored centaur warriors with your formation.
And yet how is that possible.
Seeing the soldiers on the opposite side arraying hedgehogs, they tried in vain to resist their own charge. The centaur warrior on the opposite side, wearing a full-coverage Charrell helmet, leaving only a gap between his eyes, sneered, and his speed increased a few more - when he rushed to the front, the particularly elongated, four-meter-long heavy cavalry spear suddenly pierced the enemy on the opposite side with armor. And that wasn't enough, the centaur continued to charge with strange force, and the heavy cavalry with a slightly deformed spear pierced the first enemy behind it, the other in the second row, and then the third and fourth in the same way. The centaur warrior charged and shot down, but the four enemy heavy infantry wearing plate chain composite armor on the opposite side were generally dressed in a string of sugar gourds...,
I heard only a terrible howl among the Holy See troops. One thousand and a half centaur heavy cavalry lined up in four columns of two hundred and fifty men, and this time they charged, each of them had three or five lives strung on their rifles. Tearing down the Papal Array's array in a mess - if it were a human knight, this round of charging would be understood, or pulling out a saber and battle axe to do a ròu fight, or turning the horse's head and preparing for another charge. However, this centaur is different, after piercing several enemies with a spear and killing several enemies, he still continues to move forward with a bloody heart, and his power is undiminished. Immediately afterward, it crashed into the ròu string of the barrel of the gun, and another column of enemies.
The papal guard of the Holy See army was well-trained, and the cross spear in his hand had already been aimed at the centaur heavy cavalry, and stabbed it with the help of kinetic energy - this time with the power of the centaur charge, the power was quite strong, but he didn't expect that after stabbing the armor of the centatrium, the armor had a large arc, and it had been waxed and oiled before the battle. It's slippery.
The head of the spear stabbed at it, and the force was deflected by a few points. There was a "stab" sound in the armor, and a trace was drawn. Didn't get in. But the handle of the gun could not withstand this force, and it was broken in half at once. The papal guards also screamed, and the arms with guns were suddenly gone. Immediately afterward, he was knocked out by the centaur. Several of the soldiers beside him were also breached, and they fell, buried under the hooves of the centaur warriors, trampled to pieces.
At this moment, if it still hits the human knight, although it does not penetrate the armor, but the force enters the human body through the armor, it can also break the human ribs, and even hurt xìng's life. However, the centaur warrior who had been hit by this trick only snorted lightly, and his mouth ached faintly, and at most it was just a bruise. It doesn't hurt at all!
However, it was this bit of pain that brought up the ferocity of the centaur warrior. The heavily armored monster roared angrily and threw away the unusable riding spear, and then Chōu took out the axe that looked like a wheel at his waist, clenched it with both hands and swept it, and then heard another scream on the other side, and this blow directly cut off the three Papal Guard soldiers!
A round of charge, a round of attack, a thousand heavily armored centaur warriors, they forcibly broke through more than 5,000 soldiers and horses in the rear formation of the Holy See, and under the frantic slashing, they completely defeated the formation of the Holy See army!
