392: General Binglan
The light cavalry assaulted after a surprise attack.
It's a bold directive, and a strategy that's worth trying, at least on the bright side.
However, the Emperor of the Locke Empire was surrounded by Bai Hua and Estes, and it was impossible to break through without injury.
Therefore, if you want to achieve huge gains, you must take the corresponding risks, which is suitable there, and in the breakout battle, the risks that need to be borne have been foreseen by the generals of the Rock Empire.
Presumably, even if it succeeds in breaking through, the light cavalry battalion will have a third of the casualties.
After all, the Locke Empire did not equip the light cavalry battalion due to the poor stability of its guns, and now it still uses primitive spears and bows and arrows.
However, he believed that the light cavalry battalion would be able to break through.
You must know that before the Locke Empire advanced to the [3] level civilization, it was most famous for its cavalry.
Needless to say, its sophistication and combat power, each cavalry has a brave force of one as ten, even if the casualties that will occur are really distressing, but compared to the overall victory or defeat, it is nothing.
"Light cavalry battalion, start assault, charge me!"
After the order was given, the soldiers of the light cavalry battalion, one by one, with red eyes, rushed out like sharp arrows.
In just a blink of an eye, they rushed to the reloaded phalanx of the second battalion of the empire, as if they didn't expect them to make such a bold breakthrough, they didn't react for a while, and not a single bullet was fired.
100 meters.
80 meters.
50 meters!
At such a close distance, even the effect of the guns was not great, and the Imperial Army reacted to no avail, and the breakthrough was even smoother than expected!
The corners of the Locke Empire's general's mouth unconsciously cracked into a smile.
The light cavalry battalion in the wild gallop even showed murderous intent in his eyes, and set up spears and men and horses as one.
However, none of them noticed that a pair of golden vertical pupils were watching all this.
In addition to firearms, the strongest thing in the Rock Empire is the cavalry, the Rock Empire knows this very well and knows how to apply it, so, as the enemy, Bai Hua, don't you know?
Yes, of course.
Knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent is invincible, but it is the foundation of military law.
Naturally, Bai Hua also has a plan to deal with it.
"The time has come, close the net."
Fifty meters below the battlefield, a team of imperial soldiers looked at each other, couldn't help but smile bitterly, looked at the wooden stakes in front of them like precision machinery, shook their heads, and said: "I hope General Bai Hua can remember to dig us out after the war, I don't want to die in this hellish place." ”
"Work for you."
With that, the soldiers picked up their sledgehammers and slammed them into the stakes in front of them, then dropped their hammers and quickly drilled into a metal ball.
"Squeak squeak—"
With a piercing cracking sound, the stake suddenly split into small pieces and disintegrated, and the rocks and soil supporting it collapsed instantly.
Above this empty mine, there were several similar mines, and with the collapse of the lowest level, the structure of the rest of the mines also collapsed, and countless earth blocks and rocks fell, and the battlefield above it collapsed.
On closer inspection, a huge pit of more than 30 meters fell directly.
And the light cavalry battalion of thousands of charges was in the middle of the hole.
"Boom Boom ——————!!!"
With a bang, the attention of everyone on the battlefield was concentrated, and the hope of the Locke Empire's counterattack was inexplicably shattered.
I don't know if the light cavalry battalion is alive or dead?
No, look at that terrible pit, even if it is buried, it is buried by surprise, and it is buried.
"No, it can't be, how can this be?!" General Locke fell to his knees as if he had collapsed.
In a head-on battle, they had no chance of defeating the Imperial Army, and could only win tactically, but at this moment, the last counterattack was actually extinguished due to the collapse of the ground, how could he accept it?
You must know that the Locke Empire now only has the imperial capital left, and there are not many war horses, thousands of light horsemen, which are already the last batch of cavalry in their Locke Empire.
"Could it really be that the heavens are going to destroy my Rock Empire?"
At this moment, several sword lights flickered, and in an instant, the sword qi was vertical and horizontal, and a long sword quietly rested on his neck.
"It seems that you are the existing supreme general of the Locke Empire, how, do you still insist on resisting? That would only increase casualties. Bai Hua looked at the general and said very sincerely.
"Casualties? Haha, yes, even the sky is on your side, what's the point of us resisting again? General Locke slowly turned his head and sighed sadly.
"You think it's a natural phenomenon?"
Bai Hua was slightly stunned, no matter how you look at it, it's impossible.
"Could it be that you can't control it?" General Locke didn't believe it, this is their imperial capital, how could anyone be allowed to build a mine under the imperial capital, if it was the handiwork of the imperial army, it would be even more impossible, the imperial army came to the imperial capital only one night, not to mention whether they had the ability or not, even if it was a mining hole dug by the imperial army, it was impossible for them not to be unaware.
Bai Hua thought about it, but didn't tell him after all that there was a dangerous species called 'Earth Dragon' under his command.
Those, but each of them is a little hole digging expert.
The breakthrough of the light cavalry battalion was also expected, and the weak defense of the left flank was deliberate.
"That's enough, let the soldiers stop."
“······ Good. ”
General Locke sighed faintly, and gave an order as if he had lost his soul, just like Bai Hua said, there is no point in fighting any longer.
The soldiers of the Locke Empire surrendered one after another, and Bai Hua handed over the command to Alay, leaving some soldiers to guard the prisoners, and led some soldiers directly into the city, intending to attack the south gate from the inside.
If you're lucky, you can open the gates for the Estes Army.
No matter how bad it is, it can quickly end the battle with a two-sided attack.
In addition, a team of elites was divided to capture the Emperor of the Locke Empire and his children.
Not long after, Bai Hua led the army to the south gate and directly caught the defenders of the south gate off guard.
Maybe it's because I didn't expect the North Gate Front to lose at such a fast pace.
As soon as the city gates were opened, the soldiers immediately felt an abnormality.
It's cold, it's too cold.
Even Bai Hua felt a hint of coldness.
At this time, it is the frost and snow season, and it is normal to feel cold, but here, the cold snap is constantly converging in a certain direction, as if a frozen beast is about to wake up.
Sure enough, with a loud shout, the Frost Giant spun around the battlefield.
"General Binglan!"
In the next moment, the snow suddenly changed direction, and spun and spread out at an accelerated pace with the Frost Giant as the axis.
The extreme cold current blows on people, giving people the illusion that blood is frozen, no, that's not an illusion, everyone who was affected slowed down in an instant, and their hands were unconsciously let go because they couldn't stand the biting cold, and the weapon slipped off their hands.
The energy gathered in just one move made Bai Hua secretly smack his tongue.
"One blow can freeze the entire country, one person can fight the country, and the ability has grown a lot, but even the friendly troops have been indiscriminately affected, it really hasn't changed at all, and as always, I like to cause trouble to people."
Bai Hua let out a long sigh, and the flames around him swirled, making the imperial army behind him feel a lot better.
