Chapter 152: Analyre's Secret
"The leader of the enemy is really fast, his vitality and foot strength like a wounded cockroach. Of course, his men were no slower than him. But I don't think it's like a knight to run away so quickly, even if it's chaotic. ”
Hyde waved his sword and looked at the fleeing Kugan cavalry and made his comment. In fact, the tactics negotiated with Fischer were successful. When the Divine Favor of Namor commanded two or three hundred cavalry to assault from the front, Hyde and Frey and others led one hundred and fifty cavalry and some infantry to stand by in the smoke they had raised. When the enemy launched a detour against Fischer, Hyde led his troops to launch a counterattack at the most critical moment, and as Fischer predicted, it achieved a surprising victory.
However, in this battle, the two chaotic teams of five hundred people did not fight, so the gains of Hyde and the others were not very large. In fact, when the Chaos Thousand Men were knocked into the dust by Hyde's blow, the Chaos Heavy Riders, who were engaged with Fischer head-on, immediately sped away. The Chaos Hussars engaged in Hyde ran even faster, turning their backs and driving their lightly armed horses to the extreme, distancing themselves from the Imperial cavalry almost instantly.
In fact, the fleeing procession also included their wounded thousands. The lanky Chaos Knight named Suho was not killed after being knocked off his horse by Hyde, who only broke his spear with a sword and slightly wounded his right arm. When Hyde found out that the guy wasn't dead, he had already fledgled into another horse and fled, even leaving the Thousand Men Banner behind. In a sense, this Chaos Knight wearing black barbed armor and a bit of an insect feeling really doesn't look like a knight, I don't know how he became the head of a thousand people.
After a short pursuit of several hundred meters, the deputy commander, Baron Fischer, informed the troops to stop and return to the division to join the troops on the southern flank. Hyde agreed with the order, for he felt that the horses were starting to get tired, even Ugol's. After a series of fierce battles, this is inevitable, and the Imperial Coalition does not have as many spare horses as the Chaos Kugans, and it is not a good choice to compete with the Kugans who come and go like the wind.
So the cavalry quickly approached the phalanx, their banners and spears shining in the wind. Everyone's armor was covered with blood, knife marks, arrow marks, and many wounded, but the joy of victory overwhelmed the untidy appearance, and the scars and blood stains were the glorious medals of the warrior.
In the battle just now, with more than 350 cavalry and less than 100 infantry troops, they launched a heroic assault against more than 1,200 Chaos cavalry, and crushed all the enemy in one fell swoop. Killing nearly 100 enemies and losing less than 20 self-inflicted losses is a miracle that can be written in the history of the war!
The last phalanx and the remaining cavalry on the southern flank greeted the heroic reinforcements with earth-shattering cheers. In the fierce battle just now, they also launched a counter-charge against the Chaos Kugans from behind, and achieved certain gains. However, upon discovering that the enemy had fled very quickly, the disciplined force immediately stopped the pursuit and re-formed the phalanx under the orders of Jerome, the commander of the phalanx. The infantry facing the cavalry on the plains had to be cautious and cautious, this was a fixed law of the battlefield, and it was not to be slackened by a temporary victory.
"For now, I have one hundred and forty or fifty cavalry in my hands. His Excellency Jerome still had more than 800 infantry and about 300 non-combatants. By the way, there were about sixty dwarf musketeers not counted. On the whole, there are still a thousand combatable soldiers on the southern flank, which is the credit of His Excellency Jerome's good command. ”
Marshall and Hyde rode side by side, the tall red-haired young man's armor covered in smoke and indentation, and he had suffered a few minor injuries, but he was in good spirits. He modestly introduced the current strength of the southern flank troops to Hyde, with a solemn look on his face.
"The enemy has just fled so quickly, and His Excellency Fischer and I have not been able to catch them. Otherwise, we will crush them between the spear walls of your phalanx and the iron cavalry of our army, and kill at least a few hundred of them. But at present, almost all the enemy troops have fled, and their losses are actually not large, which is really cunning enough. ”
Hyde wiped the blood from his sword, and sighed in a somewhat regretful voice to his old friend. As soon as the battle stopped, the soreness and exhaustion all over his body rolled in, almost squeezing his strong body like a mountain. The great tricolor seal that shrouded his sword and spine had faded, and only the thorny pattern of Tal Divine Power left by Frey still shone faintly on his armor strewn with the marks of war. The Divine Favor is not a machine or a god, and there will inevitably be a huge exhaustion after a huge explosion, and after killing several Chaos Generals in a row, Hyde's strength has been exhausted.
