Lord of the Oasis Chapter 234: .The victory of the heavy cavalry charge
Kant did not intend to involve the infantry in the ensuing reconnaissance.
Therefore, he told Bandak, who was still waiting beside him, "You lead these infantrymen to light a bonfire for warmth, and set up a temporary camp here. If there is any danger, I will send cavalry to notify you for support."
"Yes, I see."
Bendak nodded solemnly, and said to Kant solemnly: "Lord Kant, please be careful."
"Relax." Kant's face was calm.
No nonsense, he immediately got on his horse, but before he moved forward, the mage apprentices stopped him.
The mage apprentice at the head said eagerly: "Lord Lord, we can perceive the evil breath, and maybe even those demonized creatures. If possible, please take us forward."
"Just kidding!"
Bandak frowned tightly and reprimanded: "Lord Kant led the cavalry forward, how can you mages keep up, if you encounter an enemy, you can't even ride a horse, you can only cause chaos!"
A docile traveling horse can be ridden by apprentice wizards.
Compared to the obedient, but tyrannical character of Swadia's armored warhorse, it is absolutely uncontrollable.
Their riding is very poor.
This is Bandak's reason for rejecting them.
"Isn't our traveling horse just behind? We hide behind to help sense those demonized creatures. If we encounter a large number of demonized creatures and want to sneak attack, we can also be the first to find out!"
Mage apprentices are still requesting.
Kant frowned.
Turn his head to look behind him, the traveling horses of the seven of them are used as pack horses, carrying a lot of supplies on their backs.
These supplies are charcoal and food to keep the infantry warm.
But after hearing the self-recommendation of the apprentice of the mage, saying that he could perceive demonized creatures, Kant raised his eyebrows slightly and asked them in a deep voice: "I can perceive demonized creatures, is this true or false?"
"Really!" The mage apprentice headed nodded and said quickly: "Every time they appear, they carry a strong negative energy from hell. After we are familiar with their energy fluctuations, we can vaguely perceive them roughly. information, such as quantity, distance, and class type."
After a failed magical experiment, they no longer dared to boast about anything other than their own abilities.
Kant understood this.
Weiwei thought for a moment, then he directly waved: "Keep up!"
"Understood!" The mage apprentices saluted in surprise and ran towards their traveling horses.
Unloaded the supplies and threw them by the wall, and rode their horses behind the Kant crowd.
"Let's go!"
Kant tapped his horse's belly and led the team to the front.
In the back are 188 Swadian heavy cavalry and 7 apprentices riding on traveling horses, continuing to go deep into the ancient tunnel, letting the sound of horses hooves beat on the flagstone road, and the rumbling sound spread like thunder for miles.
The momentum is unrivaled!
The width of the ancient passage is a good 10 meters, although it is narrower than the plain.
But still galloping to the fullest.
Even if you encounter an enemy, you are equally fearless.
The narrow ancient passage extends straight without any corners or corners. It is almost the passage prepared by these Swadian heavy cavalry to launch the best battlefield to charge!
Just charge.
Sharp spears and mighty steeds will destroy you.
Even if the demonized creatures are ferocious and terrifying, they must face each other.
Want to fend off the onslaught of heavy cavalry groups?
Maybe think too much!
They can only survive by relying on complex mountain terrain.
Although it is a huge threat to the surrounding lords, it is these demonized creatures who are really slaughtered. As long as traces of these guys are found in the lord's territory, they will definitely be dealt with in a short time. If it is dropped, there will also be specialized senior knights to deal with it.
So only demonized creatures slaughtered and used as trophies can be seen, but not destroyed territories, maybe a few lumber and quarries destroyed, but for the lords to be built at any time .
Those demonized creatures are really dead when they die.
Kant led the team to advance rapidly.
Seems to be aware of their aggressiveness, not even a trace of the demonized creatures.
The heavy cavalry, who were still carrying spears at all times and kept vigilance secretly, did not relax in their hearts. Instead, they were a little bit puzzled. They were even more vigilant looking at the darkness ahead, daring not to be careless.
Unusual means unusual, and unusual means dangerous.
Slow down.
Kant also noticed this.
Behind the heavy cavalry next to him, the apprentice mage was hugging the neck of the traveling horse, gasping for breath from the jolt.
Obviously, such fierce galloping makes it a little difficult for them who are not very good at riding.
The Swadian heavy cavalry at the back stood on the sidelines with no intention of helping. For them, they couldn't even control the traveling horses, just like the student-like mage apprentices, there was a fundamental difference.
Similar to melee cavalry, looking down on ranged crossbowmen and archers.
But the mage apprentices didn't care.
They also disdain to have anything to do with these silly soldiers on horseback.
Instead, he rode his horse to the front and came to Kant's side, panting and reporting: "Lord Lord, we sensed that there were groups of demonized creatures at a distance of about 300 meters in front!"
"Well done." Kant nodded, squinting at the silent darkness ahead, his face was calm.
It's not what he expected.
It's so quiet, almost eerie, that it wouldn't be possible without the ambush of demonic creatures.
This is a soldier's sixth sense.
Now the reminders from the mage apprentices just prove his guess.
Drawing out the slender knight sword around his waist, Kant turned his head and said solemnly: "Five minutes of rest, after five minutes, start preparing for battle, go straight into the charge stance, and crush them!"
"Yes!" The answer of the many Swadian heavy cavalry was simply and forcefully.
But the five-minute break was not wasted.
Using the light released by the burning torches, they were all quickly checking their armor and weapons, straightening their helmets, tying the linen gowns outside the armor, each with a fan-shaped shield in their left glove and a tight right in their right hand. Holding a 5-meter long spear, he looked at Kant in front of him with a stern face.
At the end of just five minutes, they were already ready, waiting for the orders of their lords, and they were able to brazenly urge the armored horses under their crotch to enter into a violent charging stance.
After more than ten years of hard training and life-and-death struggle on the battlefield, this has almost become their instinct!
"Forward!"
Holding the knight's sword tightly, Kant rode ahead.
The horseshoe taps lightly on the flagstone.
Sounds in the ancient tunnel grow louder as the speed increases.
In less than 50 meters, all the Swadian heavy cavalry had already started to accelerate, and the sound of horseshoes hitting the flagstones began to echo through the ancient passage like rolling thunder.
Even the rushing sound of the underground river was completely covered up.
At the same time, in the dark depths of the ancient passage, there was a low growl that seemed to sense something wrong.
Magic creatures are in ambush.
In just a short distance of 300 meters, the Swadian heavy cavalry had already entered the posture of full charge. The roaring thunder sounded from the feet of the horses under their crotch, with a violent impact that swept everything, and instantly entered the peak charge At that moment, the sharp spear drooped directly, and the sharp point of the spear was facing a position half a meter below the ground.
As long as there is an enemy in this position, the sharp and sturdy spear tip will instantly pierce through the bodies of several demonized creatures that appear to be tough, but are actually still flesh and blood!
And this is not the beginning, nor the only one.
Just behind the 188 Swadian heavy cavalry, apprentice wizards raised their staffs.
"Golden Blade!"
With a few words in a low voice, a golden light instantly bloomed between the staffs.
And shrouded the front row of heavy cavalry.
Even the darkness has been dispelled a little, and I can vaguely see the demonized creatures who are still in ambush with their eyes closed 100 meters away. start attacking.
But that's just a brief moment in time.
"For Swadia!"
The Swadian heavy cavalry in the front row roared.
The tip of the spear in his hand, on the sharp spear head, has been dyed with a faint golden glow at this moment.
And they don't seem to notice.
Only when charging, the two sides are approaching extremely fast and staggering.
The sharp spear was like a hot dinner knife slicing into the cold butter, easily piercing the supposedly tough fur, tearing the strong muscles, and stabbing it directly in the back, and then carrying the The terrifying power of the charge continued to stab into the body of the demonized creature behind it, and pierced through it in a flash!
A series of nearly 3 demonized creatures finally became too heavy to be stabilized, so they could only let go of the long spear, pulled out the sharp half-sword in the backhand, and slashed frantically from top to bottom.
"Golden Blade!"
But behind, the golden light instantly reappeared.
Another mage apprentice raised his staff and whispered a few words to use his spell slot.
Although they haven't experienced actual combat, the Ainfas Empire, as a military power, has a lot of military training for these mage apprentices, otherwise there is no way to compete with other races with ordinary troops.
How to release spells at critical times is the most important part of training!
Gold glitters.
On the frontmost battlefield, in the hands of nearly 20 Swadian heavy cavalry, a faint golden light suddenly appeared on the half-sword that was still slashing. The tough scales, and even the fragile vertebrae, will be cut off directly, which is fatal in one blow!
The sound of the hooves rumbled, the whole body was armored to the calf, and the top horses that had been honed by the battlefield slaughter, these Swadian armored horses ran forward without fear, knocking any demons in front of them. biology.
Those sharp tusks and claws were unable to injure these warhorses at all.
Although the linen cover was torn and torn ~IndoMTL.com~ occasionally the tight chainrings on the chain mail were torn off to a small extent.
However, the war horses did not suffer any casualties. They still ran furiously forward, crushing the demonized creatures in front of them with ramming and ramming. Mud!
The torches swayed by the charge, and the light went from dim to almost dark.
Wait until fully finished.
The burning of the torches has stabilized.
The light illuminates the surrounding scene.
It is still the ancient passage deep underground, and the darkness condensed by the eternal ancient at the end, but the scarlet and green eyes of the demonized creatures are gone, only the warhorses are snorting, and the riders are breathing quickly Voice.
In addition, behind him, the tragic howl gradually weakened.
Winning.
