1805 Battle of Danny (VI)

"Woohoo"

The long horn with a sense of tragedy echoed in the black smoke-filled sky, and the Gallic Praetorian Guards still resisted stubbornly and unyieldingly in the face of the destructive Falcon Empire siege force, the tortoiseshell array was broken from the front, and the Janissaries abandoned their neat shield guns and used all their melee weapons,

"Bell! bell!"

In the collision of strength and power, countless sparks emerged, and knives, spears, and swords slashed and poked at the Falcon Empire siege soldiers with heavy shields in their hands.

The sharp swords and axes poked and chopped at their black heavy armor with only a shallow wound, and the spear pierced through the heavy armor would be stuck, in front of the array of the two armies, the cheers had stopped, and the soldiers of both the Gallic army and the falcon army were now looking at the battlefield with a solemn gaze, the squeezed formation of the Gallic Praetorian Guards was scattered, even if it fell into the chaos of melee combat and strict zhòng, these Janissaries still did not collapse, this is a group of respectable warriors,!

Seeing that his descendants were making the last resistance, Hasenranpo thrust the sword in his hand into the ground under his feet in pain, and let out a sad groan from the bottom of his heart, what kind of weapons did the Falcon Army use? How could it be so sharp? What about us? Hasenranpo saw a Praetorian Guard officer he knew, with only a broken sword left in his hand, still slashing bravely and violently on the enemy's heavy armor, the dark armor was so strong, the broken sword was bounced off

"Die!

The attacked Falcon siege soldier grinned nonchalantly and waved his hand. So the brave young Praetorian Guard was immediately smashed on the head by a siege cone weighing fifty pounds, and fragments of brains, blood, and skulls flew sideways, and the whole head was gone. There were many Praetorian Guards like him, fighting desperately, although they knew that they could not recover the defeat, in the face of the black armor shadow in front of them, no one flinched, the blood rolled into a river in vain, and the corpses piled up on the slopes of the flanks of the battle.

"Steady!" they wielded their weapons in vain, before their heads were smashed by the falconers' hammers. Even if you can't penetrate the opponent's heavy armor, you have to work together to cut down the weapon

Algernonkatya's eyes moistened, and although the general he sent to command the 10,000-strong team was not a brave general, he could still do it at least in a decent manner. Faced with an unfavorable situation. Bruta struggled to maintain a front that was about to be broken,

He led a dozen Gallic Janissaries who were blocking the advance of the Falcon Army, and was chased and intercepted by a group of tall warriors who were close to madness, and while smashing them into minced flesh one by one, he also won a short but precious buffer time.

"Blow the trumpet, order the left flank to send forward, get them back!"

Algernonkatya raised his head and shouted to the trombonist behind him with all his strength, watching as the main general's banner in the middle of the tortoiseshell formation was smashed with a hammer from a falcon soldier. The battle flag is like a kite with a torn string blown by the wind,

"Onward!

The 30,000 Gallic troops on the left flank heard the trombone on behalf of the sortie. The officers of the Northern Army roared angrily, and they ran back and forth in front of the ranks, guiding and directing the pale soldiers of the Northern Army to quickly form a new advance line,

Some of the short-eyed fellows were still hesitating in place, and were whipped with whips by the officers of the Overseers behind without hesitation, and the blood taught the sluggish Gallic soldiers what choice they should make, and they followed the tide of the queue forward in fear, "Forward!"

The infantry captain who led the team drew his sharp sword, the triangular dovetail battle flag representing each squadron on his head rattled in the wind, the group of 30,000 people wriggled forward like an ant colony, and the dense bayonet spears seemed to conjure a large dense forest out of thin air on the surface of the ground.

The Gallic hussars on either side turned their horses and galloped out of the ranks of the infantry like locusts with a whistling wind like clusters of arrows.

The white satin on the leather helmet fluttered like a battle flag in the wind, and the horse wore a round cavalry shield on the crotch, and held a light cavalry spear wrapped in a sharp tip at the front, forming a column of two hundred and fifty horsemen

Shaking the reins, he moved forward with the horse's hooves, rolling like the tide of the sea,

The horse's hooves raised the debris and yellow shaking smoke on the ground, like a sandstorm rolled up on the flat ground, approaching the battle area at an unstoppable speed, and the "booming" ground began to tremble uncontrollably as the cavalry group approached, and the gravel seemed to be held up and pressed down by an invisible hand.

The Gallic Praetorian Guard had lost more than two-thirds of the battle, and the remaining third was still holding on, feeling the thunderous sound of horses' hooves behind him, a Gallic Praetorian Guard turned his head covered in blood, his eyes and pupils constricted, and immediately burst into a luster of joy, "Gather the formation, our cavalry is coming!"

The excited shouts of the Gallic Praetorian Guard made the rest of the people feel for a while, just a few hundred meters away, with the speed of the light cavalry, unless these monsters on the other side can form a defensive formation in the chaotic battle, it will be the result of being slaughtered, "Vertical spear!"

The heavy gasps of the war horse erupted from his mouth, and under the shout of the captain of the leading cavalry, the spears of the Gallic light cavalry were neatly put down, and the cold light of the spear was like a neatly jumping forward killing line rushing forward, and the Gallic light cavalry let out a strange howl from their mouths, and rushed to the front with great speed, "Rush, rush, charge, let these falconers die!" The cavalry general who led the team was already roaring angrily at his subordinates, and the corpses of countless Gallic Janissaries in front of him made all the Gallic cavalry who saw this scene on the verge of losing their minds. "Despicable Gauls!"

Seeing that the Gauls were so untrustworthy, the eyes of the Falcon soldiers were red, the battle area was only a few hundred meters away from the left flank of the Gaul army, and the impact of the light cavalry was as fast as an arrow, just a few minutes, from starting to accelerating to charging, there was no time to react, like a flickering torrent hitting the black cliff. "Smack, smack"

The Falcon siege force and the Gallic light cavalry collided fiercely, and this time the collision was far more tragic than the previous infantry battle! The high speed of the Gallic light cavalry turned the war horse into a terrible weapon like a battering ram. Even if he was wearing heavy armor, he was knocked out and flew out, although the assault formation accelerated by the light cavalry was disorderly. But at least the rough prototype was ensured, and the king status of the cavalry cluster in the hand-to-hand combat was reflected, and even the elite of the Falcon Empire was shocked by the "kill, kill them all!"

A maniacal grin appeared on Algernonkatya's face, and even the most dull commander knew that once the infantry was divided by the cavalry, it was cheese on the plate.

But no sooner had he laughed than a white line with a cold light shot into the chest of one of the Gallic hussar captains from afar! A powerful piercing force penetrated through the back of the hussar, and with blood and broken bone shards, it pierced into the body of another hussar.

The head of the Longbow Banner of the Central Army, Xast, slowly put down the longbow in his hand, looked at the Gallic light cavalry in the distance, and his pupils made people tremble, "This." Be. Miscellaneous. Whatever!"

The captain of the Gallic hussars, who was the first to be shot, shook his body on his horse. He looked down in disbelief at the pierced wound. I couldn't believe that I had been shot, and I tried to turn around, poof, a mouthful of blood mixed with fragments of internal organs spit out of his mouth, and my body shook and fell off the warhorse, "Thorn Tile Longbow! I should have thought that where the demon king is, there must be a Thorn Tile Longbow!"

Algernonkatya's face rose into a look of astonishment, and he threw angry punches into the saddle one by one. A trace of red blood flowed from between his fingers, and his face, which was still very happy just now, felt like a slap in the face. The first combat force of the Falcon Army,

"Ah" another galloping Gallic light cavalry was hit in the forehead by the arrow shot from inside, and the whole head was blown to pieces by a powerful force, and even the corpse and horse rolled out more than ten meters, and thousands of longbows and arrows as thick as thumbs were like a big net,

Countless white lines have been shot from 200 meters like flying locusts. The precision is terrible, the tall figure of the cavalry on the war horse is simply a natural target, one by one from the war horse overturned, the extremely destructive Mitsubishi crossbow arrows pierced into the leather armor of the Gallic light cavalry cavalry,

The powerful impact force penetrates the back of the armor,

Like wheat stubble harvested by a sickle, hundreds of light cavalry rushing in were quickly cleared, often an arrow pierced the body of a cavalryman, and the remaining strength was inserted into another cavalryman, the cavalry seemed to be hit in the face by a fierce punch, the man fell from his horse, and was rushed up by the nearby falcon hoplites with a sneer, and his mouth watched "let you go crazy" and smashed down with a battering cone, and the burst leather helmet was like a tomato that was violently stepped on, "Forward!

Greeting the Gallic infantry cluster were tens of thousands of crossbowmen in front of the Falcon Army, these crossbowmen of the Falcon Empire ran forward, while raising the crossbow in their hands at an angle of thirty degrees, calculating the approximate distance and pulling the crossbow, the powerful crossbow in their hands made an explosive taut sound. Because it is equipped with the latest type of pole-loading crossbow,

These skilled crossbowmen were able to reload in less than ten seconds, and the bursts of arrows slashed through the air in a curved arc, raining down on the formation of the Gallic infantry still on the left flank, and the metal arrows flashed a chilling light in the air, and then turned into a howling rain of death, "Poof!

The sound of a sharp weapon piercing through the soft human flesh was like the light crispness of cutting through the leather with a knife, and the entire platoon of Gallic soldiers fell under this stormy blow, and at a distance of only a dozen steps, the soldiers in the front queue were shot into a miserable state full of arrows and hedgehogs, "Mom!"

The northern Gallic soldiers behind were frightened and did not dare to move forward, and between the light and flint, like a violent rain of arrows, struck again,

The Gallic left-wingers flipped on their backs, and soldiers sprayed blood in the air, screaming and throwing dust from their horses. The body was instantly pierced by countless arrows, and the arrows shot the second person into the air with blood flowers, and some people were even nailed to the ground, and the blood flowers bloomed in the air. The soldiers screamed and cried, you hit me and pushed me to the ground and trampled on each other, some people lay down to dodge, but the panicked horses stepped on the back of the head, and their brains flew out!"The left flank can't stand it! The generals ask for reinforcements from the right flank, or please allow them to retreat!" A herald jumped down from his horse covered in wolves, "Withdraw, withdraw, where is the courage of these guys!" Algernonkatya's face was bruised, and he threw his horsewhip to the ground in anger. The fiery eyes looked at the golden falcon battle flag slowly advancing in front of him, and the other party was simply playing with himself as a monkey.

The left wing could not bear it. The right wing does not dare to move!

Because under the battle flag that made everyone tremble, the skilled crossbowmen of the Falcon Central Army lined up in several rows on the edge of the higher ground, and countless crossbows followed the shouts of the captains, ordering the war horses to run back and forth on the battlefield,

The huge steel phalanx appeared in front of him just now, and the shields all over the mountains reflected the dazzling sunlight. Like a large ribbon of snowy light, several huge Falcon formations were spreading out in an orderly manner from the middle to both sides, lined up. Behind the metal shield wall were a forest of spears and uncountable crossbow arrows, like a huge and powerful falcon wing, posing in a nearly fully open V-shape, based on an army of 50,000. The sniper longbow array set up by the Vicchian Falcon himself!"It's a bloodthirsty beast!"

A hint of defeat flashed across Algernonkatya's face. He could feel that the man under the banner on the other side was looking at him with a teasing gaze, and the terrible feeling like a beast baring its fangs and smiling was already causing beads of sweat to burst out on his head, "Order the whole army to withdraw from the battlefield!"

Algernon Katya slowly raised his right hand, his eyes were gray, and his face was heavy and he said word by word, in just one morning's battle, the 110,000 army lost 20,000 people, and the blow to morale was immeasurable. But in any case, he has completed the strategic layout. Without a trace, he gave the Danny Portal to the Vechia Falcon, the more tragic it is, the more it can prove that it values this portal! The Vekia Falcon would never have thought that this gateway city would eventually become the deadbolt of the Falcon Army!

"Woo!"

The mournful sound of the horn on behalf of the retreat of the whole family finally reached the ears of the general of the Northern Army who had been waiting for a long time, and the Gallic army began to break away from the battle, and even the wounded soldiers did not have time to drag them away.

The fat man's face was grim and ordered the soldiers to search Kozi City, before the Falcon Army arrived, the citizens of Kozi City had been relocated to Danni, the houses inside were burned by the siege of the city by a third of the incendiary bombs, the three outer walls were destroyed two, and the remaining one also collapsed half, after a large search, no abnormalities were found in the city, and no large-scale accumulation of wood was found, when the Gauls withdrew, they also set a fire themselves, burned down the warehouses in the city, for safety reasons, the fat man asked the soldiers to strengthen the city wall with wooden strips, clean up the debris of the city, and the collapsed part was filled with a wooden fenceThe moat outside the city is a branch of the river that flows outside the city, "Your Majesty, there seems to be something wrong with the water level of the river!" Hukochili looked strange and found the fat man who was resting in the tent outside the city, he was holding a ruler in his hand to record the water level in Gaul, on which the depth of the water level was marked,

4 meters!

The fat man glanced at the depth on the ruler, and his face changed a little, "Let's go, go and see!" casually put on a sackcloth and walked out with Hukeqili, the water level of the moat in a small city like Kezi City is actually 4 meters deep, isn't it a joke! Even if it is a large military fortress, the depth of the moat will not reach this depth,

The fat man is not an architect, but he has attacked countless cities in the past few years, what kind of moat has not been seen, and he has also noticed the problems inside, the water level of the moat in small and medium-sized cities can be about 2 meters, and the water level of large cities can reach 3 meters.

Although the city of Kozi is the gateway to Danny Gaul, it is at most a small and medium-sized city in terms of scale, this is a city for non-military purposes, this can be seen in the moat outside the city of Kozi, the fortress built with stones, the water flow on the white flower river is extremely fast, like a monster constantly rushing left and right under the feet, "If I am not mistaken, the upstream of this tributary of this river is blocked!" The fat man picked up a stone from the river and threw it into the moat, only to see the water splash gushing, and the fist-sized stone actually rushed to the pass downstream with the current, which reminded the fat man of a place, the Sona River!" Who is Your Majesty, the other party is hoarding water upstream!" Hu Keqili's face changed, he looked up at the ruined city in front of him where the city wall almost collapsed, and then looked at the narrow moat, and seemed to understand something, "Just by hoarding water, you can't achieve the effect, send someone to the place where the downstream meets!" The fort of this river was only recently repaired, and the original river should have been wider than the current one, so in order to prevent us from seeing it, a stone barrier was specially added!"

The corner of the fat man's mouth sneered, he was still thinking about where Hasenrampo would put a smoke in Robbicasa, where would he put the body, but now there is no need to think about it, Hasenlimbo is in the upper reaches of this river! Cut off the river channel and use it to turn this area into an unwalkable marshland at a critical moment, just to make the marsh an advantage to be able to fight, there is also a crucial condition "There has been no rain for a month! I remember that before the winter of last year, it rained a lot in western GaulThe fat man looked up at the sky above him, the sun was blazing, "Your Majesty said that, that's true! Last year's rain washed away many of our military camps!" Hukochili's face became very ugly, yes, it was a torrential rain that could destroy the Miè plain! He knew what the Gauls were waiting for! That rain would turn Danny into a huge swamp! If trapped in it, even the brave Imperial soldiers would become difficult to mobilize and resupply. (To be continued......)
