765 Battle of Staros (4)
Baozi sincerely thanks: book friend Ajie voted for 1 monthly ticket, and Glow voted for 1 monthly ticket;
In the Battle of Starros, which decided the center of the continent, some glorious names were like bright stars in the night, and those glorious names were undoubtedly the most influential figures in this great era, some people said that it was the Northern Army known as the One-Eyed Marshal Salon, with 30,000 troops, the main force of more than 100,000 Ruierdian was worn out of sharpness.
Some people also say that it was the powerful impact of the central general Hu Keqili, who was later known as the falcon claw, that led the chaos of Rui Erdian's army, but all historians agree that it was the middle gathering tactics of Rui Erdian's army that made the most gorgeous and tragic scene begin to flash out in the entire Battle of Staros, and finally led to the rout of more than 100,000 troops.
And the center of that undisputed focus is Varisian, who was later known as "Gore", and the grenadier regiment under his command that has only been formed for less than 2 months and is still the first time to enter the war.
Gore in the Icadivar Continental language, represents only one meaning, ruin miè!
"Give up the right flank and assemble in the center!" The loud trombone finally suppressed the chaos of the Rui Erdian army to a certain extent, and the hundreds of squares on the left flank began to slowly gather, and finally turned into several huge banner and regiment-level phalanxes, like a constricted sponge pressing towards the position of the central formation, dense spears and steel shields covered with a layer of spiky armor outside the huge military formation, like a strong fortress appeared in the flat ground
At the Battle of Staros, there was an extremely strange scene,
On the one hand, there is the crying father who was killed, and the right wing that was chased by the Falcon Cavalry and ran privately, and on the other hand, there was no intention of rescue, but the 40,000 left wing and 30,000 central troops who made the decision to break the wrist of the strong man.
In this situation, the four flag regiments arranged on the right flank finally could not hold on and collapsed, and more than 20,000 soldiers with hesitant faces poured down like a tide, wrapping the officers who blocked them and rushing down together.
Someone shouted "surrounded." Hurry up!" The soldiers turned and fled, the officers desperately suppressed, and the overseers began to kill, but all means were useless. The collapse of the army is like the dam bursting, and nothing can stop it, as far as the eye can see. Everywhere there is panic and ruin. The fleeing cavalry rammed into their own infantry array, and before the infantry could set up, the Falcon cavalry kicked them to the ground.
The knights in heavy armor were pulled off their horses by the infantry when they fled, and the infantry cavalry crowded and rushed with each other, throwing away their armor, and on their flanks, ten thousand falcon cavalry kept running back and forth and sprinting, the sword light was like snow, and the heads of the fallen people were gurgling in the mud, and the battlefield was full of routs that had been disrupted in formation.
They hurriedly fled to the middle of the main formation, trying to avoid the falcon cavalry chasing behind, but they were greeted by a dense cluster of arrows from the main formation, many soldiers were open before they died, with an unbelievable expression, and their bodies fell in the direction of the main formation, and even some of the falcon cavalry who rushed too fast were also shot by the head-on arrows because they couldn't dodge, and mixed with the corpses of the Rui Erdian soldiers
"Your Highness, isn't there something wrong with this?"
Seeing his own people who ran towards the center, they were ordered by the second prince to be shot on the spot, and the faces of several generals who were standing behind Prince Ryerdian Harauskes were not good-looking.
It's not that the brutal people have never seen it, but the commander who is so cold-blooded that he can order to shoot arrows at his own people almost without hesitation, they believe that they have never seen it in their lives, especially His Royal Highness the prince who gave the order to shoot arrows, when he gave a cold-blooded order, there was a chilling smile on the corner of his mouth
"Soldiers take war as their duty, they are deserters, and they should be executed on the spot, otherwise, with what majesty, to command these more than 100,000 troops!"
The second prince, Harauskes, watched as the last soldier who ran towards this side was shot into a hornet's nest by random arrows, and his cold face looked a little absent-minded and said, "Since my father has ordered the throne of Ryerdian to be handed over to me, then you just need to obey the order, and I will naturally take full responsibility for the victory or defeat of this battle, don't forget, I am the king of Raldian, the only designated heir to the throne of His Majesty Haraus!"
"But Your Highness, they are all your people!" A general who was about fifty years old looked hesitant, still a little unwillingly said, "Although they hold weapons, it doesn't mean that they are real soldiers, it's already good to be able to fight like this, after all, they are facing the most elite troops in the entire Ikadiva continent!" It was the most elite Northern Army at the beginning, and it was almost wiped out in the Western Wilderness, if it wasn't for the final agreement, many people here would have died in the Western Wilderness"...,
For the old general's complaints, the second prince Harusquez seemed very unimpressed, but several henchmen next to him looked very embarrassed, and even looked at the eyes of the general Rui Erdian, which can be described as resentment.
In fact, in order to gather a military force loyal to him as soon as possible, in Harauskes's camp, many military commanders are the generals of the Northern Army who have been belittled by the Military Affairs Department of Ruierdian because of the unfavorable battle in the north, so this veteran's words have undoubtedly offended many people, but the veteran's fearless expression also shows that I just told the truth!
"General Ferranticu, please pay attention to your words and deeds" Finally, General Raines, who was in charge of the planning of this battle, said with some indignation, "If you say this, it is easy for people to think that the Northern Army, which was known as the first in the continent at the beginning, is on the same level as these cowardly and incompetent peasant soldiers now, or is not as good as these peasant soldiers!"
"Hehe, it depends on what others think, we can't even think what others are thinking, we also need to correct it!" said the veteran Ruierdian, who was over half a hundred years old. I just want to remind you that you are not fighting against a rabble, your opponent is the strongest army on the continent, they have defeated the Kugit in the north, the Salanders in the south, and their commander is the Vekia Falcon who has never been defeated, or, from the beginning of the battle in such a hurry, it is a mistake in itself, the other side is obviously prepared, now we should take advantage of the main force is still there, find another fighter to fight, the most appropriate way!"
"You're a coward, you're afraid of that good-for-nothing, just luck-based Vecchia Falcon!" Hearing the veteran general's Jianyì, a young and vigorous young officer next to him said loudly sarcastically, and there seemed to be only two words on his flushed face: fearless and brave
"Alright, stop fighting!"
At this time, the second prince Harauskes, who had always been absent-minded, interrupted their argument, and under the attention of several generals, he still stared into the distance with burning eyes, and said with a ruthless face, "I know what General Ferranticu meant, but have you ever thought that if we allow the rout army to attack our own formation, we will not only lose these tens of thousands of soldiers, but the entire Ruierdian,
This battle is already the last strength of my Rui Erdian, we can only succeed, not fail, otherwise once the battle fails, we will have no more available soldiers, and when the time comes, don't say Paraven, even the entire Rui Erdian, will also cease to exist under the pressure of the Falcon Dynasty's army.
"So......" the second prince Harusquez paused in his voice, and said in a fierce and cold-blooded tone, "If their death can be exchanged for the safety of the entire army, and the time to win the war, then it is not an inappropriate act to let these people who have been blessed by me sacrifice their humble lives for their most noble king!"
"Woo woo" hurried battle call, from the direction of the rushing right flank,
Thousands of Falcon cavalry, after driving the last rout to the direction of the main camp in the center of Ruierdian, finally began to attack the defense line of the main formation.
"Crossbow!" Hu Keqili's cavalry group of the Central Army almost simultaneously pulled out the cavalry assault crossbow that had already been wound from the weapon trough in the crotch of the war horse, and thousands of falcon cavalry with assault crossbows lined up in a huge wide side and roared towards the position of the Chinese army in Rui Erdian, the hooves of the horses flew up, and the soil under their feet was already covered with blood, and the red and black soil was thrown backwards violently
"Front-row vertical guns!"
The Chinese army was originally the descendant of the second prince, well-equipped, and saw the falcon cavalry attacking like a sea of mountains, and countless three-meter spears dedicated to blocking the cavalry charge stretched out from the gap between the dense shields like fish scales, like a hedgehog with spikes,
The distance of 100 meters came in a blink of an eye, and in the neighing of the long horses, the most faced falcon cavalry suddenly rose into the air at a distance of 50 meters, turned 90 degrees in the air, and when the front hooves hit the ground, the momentum of the forward charge had changed to the left and right! The whole platoon of cavalry was as neat as a person, and the head of the formation suddenly dispersed, and the whole team was divided into two, and with the lightness of a flying swallow, they rushed wildly to the left and right respectively.
At the moment when the people of Rui Erdian were still stunned, from the direction of the Falcon Cavalry, the black cumulus cloud attacked again, and in a dense and sharp wind, the arrow rain poured non-stop in the queue of Rui Erdian's spearmen, and thousands of Falcon Cavalry who were rushing to almost in just a few minutes, carried out a baptism of arrows on the position of Rui Erdian's main formation
With such skillful horse skills, such uniform movements, and such a neat and neat change of formation in front of the enemy, the front-line Ruierdian soldiers who witnessed this spectacle were all stunned, and behind the unconcealed shield wall phalanx, a miserable scream sounded, and the Ruierdian soldiers behind fell one after another with arrows, and blood splashed.
The military discipline of the Chinese army's own formation was strict, and without orders, the soldiers in the phalanx would never dare to move without authorization. Many soldiers could only stand upright, watching the falcon cavalry shuttling back and forth dozens of meters in front of their formation, shooting, arrows flying sideways in their ears, watching their companions fall one after another, more and more vacancies in the queue, and the originally dense formation became sparse.
The "rustling" sound of the wind tore the eardrums. The soil under his feet was soaked in blood and became wet, screams, moans, cries for help, and orders mixed together, and a heavy sense of fear controlled the hearts of the Rui Erdian soldiers, and the companions around him were more and more killed and wounded, and the queue of the phalanx could no longer be maintained.
Finally, unwilling to stand still and be targeted by the Falcon Cavalry, a knight of Ryerdian shouted "Glory is my life!" in defiance of the harsh military orders. Rushing out of the queue with a bright spear. Rushing wildly, he shouted at the falcon cavalry in front of him.
"Whoosh!whoosh!" Countless white lines from across his face shot through his body in an instant, shooting him and the war horse under his crotch into bloody holes
