Power and Empire Chapter 2513: Falcon falling (23)
In the southern part of Istan’s Kyoto Great Plain, a raindrop covered the sky and the earth rolled over. The thunder blasted in the middle of the low clouds, making people’s ears humming, lightning, and blue light flickering. The earth, illuminating the fiery red armor on Rui Tang Tingna, is like a touch of flame between the sky and the earth. A coalition camp in front of which has not been fully completed is smoking thick smoke. The bodies of coalition soldiers lie all over this area. The eastern cavalry who passed by stepped on from above, and the horseshoe rolled up pieces of white splashes. None of the cavalry's eyes looked at the corpses, and the goal was only toward the front.
" Your Royal Highness, the direction is correct. Now that you have touched the periphery of the coalition base camp, the coalition base camp should be in front! "An Dongting Qianqi captain wearing a wolf helmet rode on the war horse and stained his hands with blood. The scimitar wiped the leg armor and then retracted the scabbard, with a respectful expression to report to Rui Tangtingna who was riding the horse,
"This direction is indeed the route to Aslando, but the coalition forces adopt a step-by-step strategy. Even if they are close, it is difficult to gain the advantage of a surprise attack!"
, a Hungarian guide who was accompanying affirmed the statement of the Eastern Court Qianqi Chief. Although he knew that one of the two imperial courts must be very powerful, and what he said may not be recognized by the other party, he is still very responsible. The reminder said that to the Hungarian guide’s reminder, Rui Tangtingna’s face did not fluctuate,
Her bright gaze swept across the ground ahead, she didn’t know what she was thinking about. With only 50,000 Eastern cavalry, she wanted to swallow the 300,000-strength coalition base camp, even if it was 50,000 people. Go in, I'm afraid I can't do a little bit, Rui Tang Tingna is not a fool, how can I not see this, but the army came with full of spirit, did you choose to retreat just because of fear! It was not only her face that was lost, but also the face of the entire Dongting people. On the grassland, the most admirable one was not the conspirator full of conspiracies. It is a brave and fearless warrior! In this battle, she wants to build her own prestige, and can't do it like a dead fat man. She can't do the word courage?
" Everyone. Take your scimitars and hunting bows, and enjoy hunting on this land! "Raidang Tingna rolled up the whip in her hand and said in a cold voice
" is, Her Royal Highness, "The Qianqi chiefs of the East Court behind them all looked excited and uttered a shout. One after another, they galloped out from the side of Rui Tangtingna, leading their respective cavalry to the front. The weeds under the horses' hoofs swayed wildly. In the white raindrops, countless war horses swooped down like eagles, and immediately covered the front. Lost Land,
Decoy tactics, as the name suggests, is to release the decoy. This is the most commonly used and the most skilled by the prairie cavalry. One of the most defensive tactics for the enemy, such as a sharp knife tearing a gap in the opponent's periphery, and then breaking a part of the army into pieces, spreading it like a big net, with 500 people as a team, all riding fast, waist Two full barrels of arrows are inserted in the cross-bag, which is convenient for continuous attack on the target. If the target does not launch a counterattack, it will be difficult to move under the harassment of the cavalry. But if the target wants to launch a counterattack, the decoy troops will start to withdraw,
Once the opponent chooses to bite without being irritated, it is basically a dead end. The prairie cavalry has its own unique means of communication. The scattered cavalry will quickly close at this moment, cutting off the target's retreat from the back, and in front, the main force of the prairie cavalry, who has been wandering facelessly, will also open huge pockets. This method of combat was learned by the steppemen from the wolves. In fact, in this era, in the field operations, in addition to the imperial army possessing a crossbow that is sufficient to suppress the steppe cavalry’s bow shooting tactics, the infantry groups of other countries are very much There is no good response. Therefore, in this era, the cavalry is still the top combat power in combat. Unless you choose the same field battle with cavalry against cavalry, you can only choose to retreat to a safe and stable stronghold.
Rui Tang Tingna chose this tactic to break the tactics of the coalition army. As a pure prairie tribe, a nation that grew up on horseback, confronted the coalition army’s tactics of step by step, which is naturally different from the tactics of having left the grassland for a hundred years. The Hungarian Army has forgotten about the grassland tactics.
The Hungarians have settled in Central Europe for hundreds of years. Although they are still of grassland blood, their customs have changed a lot. The courage of the ancestors at that time is not much retained. In addition, the influence from the surrounding areas for a century Most of the grassland tactics of the predecessors have been forgotten. It is like the battle of the rise of Hungary and Jamaica. The hundreds of thousands of Hungarian troops actually put on a battle posture of step by step. One, the sharpest maneuverability of the prairie cavalry has long been thrown away. If there are really half a million prairie cavalry,
But the East Court Cavalry is different. These are pure prairie people. In their habit of thinking, there is no habit of fighting. There are only wolves on the prairie. They are fierce, weird and cunning. How could it be possible that fifty thousand eastern cavalrymen smashed the coalition base camp like the Hungarian cavalry!
The cavalry combat power of the coalition has been destroyed by the Hungarians. It sounds like 300,000 people now. In fact, it is a group of infantry gathered together. Not to mention 300,000, there is no need for more. Where to worry, the highly mobile prairie cavalry is the natural nemesis of the infantry cluster. Under the rainy arrows of the prairie archer, even if the infantry cluster is a copper wall and iron wall, it will be nailed to the spot, let alone continue. Going north to the Lulan area to rescue the remnants of the 200,000 coalition forces trapped, for the southern coalition forces, every additional day of delay is an additional point of danger. So Rui Tang Tingna can conclude that the opponent’s last choice is either death. If you bite up and be dragged down to death, you can either choose to ignore the fact that 200,000 people are trapped, leave the Istanbul area immediately and choose a stable base to stop. In that case, no matter what the coalition forces are in the end, the morale of the army will be reduced. It's freezing! There is even the possibility of internal collapse! When the time comes, everything is possible!
The prairie cavalry who entered through the gap, advancing in the direction of the entire fan, like a mercury puddle, expanded to a width of thirty or forty miles at once, on a mound, a strong body wishing tree of the temple, the great knight Hua Rais, who was about to raise his hand high, led a thousand Templar cavalry down from the slope. Suddenly, his eyes narrowed into a line, his arm suddenly pulled, and the horse stopped on the spot. Amidst the noise of the rain, a piece of The rumbling of horseshoes is far away, inaudible, but it seems to be close to everyone's ears. Ahead, a team of 500 prairie cavalry also saw this sect national cavalry. There was almost no hesitation. The five hundred prairie bows had already begun to be opened
" Hungarian cavalry! These guys dared to rush here! Really looking for death." The great knight Wallace glanced at the corner of his mouth. With his arm turned over, the oval cavalry shield appeared in his hand. He did not put the cavalry in front of him in his eyes. The two surprise attacks by the Hungarian cavalry nearly collapsed the coalition base camp. It even led to the death of Rushan, the great knight commander of the Order Nation, so this time, the Order Nation specially sent 25,000 Templar Knights. Each of them was strictly selected knights with firm beliefs, loyalty and reliability. , And the equipment has reached the level of half-length armor,
Even for the powerful troops located in the southern part of Obalo, the Templars are enough to rank in the top five in terms of combat strength.
As for the miserable Aden’s camel cavalry who was beaten in front. The Templars never admit that the opponent is a cavalry. The advantage of the camel lies in its good endurance and body odor. In the melee, it is easy to cause the opponent's horse to be frightened, but the shortcomings are also very obvious, that is, it cannot be as well-trained. Like the horses of the United States, forming a real group impact, a camel cavalry that can't even achieve group combat can really exert the power of cavalry combat? In the real battle, Wallace is confident of the formation of a hundred Templars who have been trained. Enough to defeat two hundred to three hundred camel cavalry,
Aden is a country with many desert oasis. It is impossible to raise horses in large numbers, so camels can only be used instead. In this battle, it was impossible to temporarily replace camels with war horses, and it was impossible to find so many excellent riders at once. That's why 60,000 camel cavalrymen were put into the battlefield. Their performance was indeed quite unsuitable, if it were in the desert. Even the imperial cavalry is not necessarily the opponent of the camel cavalry, but this is not a desert, this is a plain, the combat power of the camel cavalry is naturally greatly reduced here, but the Temple State is different
Occupying the best gourd forest mats in the south, it also has the best war horse in the south, the Rounpol horse
This is recognized as the most expensive horse of Oubaro, and also the most beautiful horse in the world. It is known as the nobleman among horses. It is the purest offspring of horses. It is a true thoroughbred horse with great potential. And endurance, with slender hair, outstanding tail, when it is excited, it will naturally show noble qualities, even in rumors, it is called the descendant of the holy beast unicorn, the great knight Wallace The horse is a pure white Luoyun Boer horse. When the pure white mane runs, it is like a gorgeous and eye-catching battle flag. It has been extremely eye-catching in several wars, so it is called the "battle flag".
"All forward! Wish forever!"
Seeing the prairie cavalry on the opposite side dared to raise their bows and arrows, the great knight Wallace shielded his upper body with a shield, holding a heavy knight's lance, and seeing the great knight commander like this, the other sect's national cavalry raised their stabs. The gun, the Knight's stabbing gun of the Order is absolutely domineering in appearance. It has a four-meter-long barrel and a rose-red lion shield flag floating on the front end, which is the battle flag mark of the Order of Knights. Under the battle flag, a very large number of cavalry of hundreds of religious regiments centered on Wallace, expelling a triangle, hundreds of spears are like a huge sharp cone, and they are slammed forward fiercely. The rain hit it, turning into a blur, and there is a feeling of a sharp sword breaking through the air,
According to Wallace’s vision, even if the number of steppe cavalry on the opposite side is more than himself, it is true that the Hungarian cavalry is sturdy, but the shortcomings of the Hungarian cavalry are also very obvious, that is, the Hungarian cavalry is not disciplined. Strong, in the face of the rigorous impact formation of the cult cavalry, the opponent will inevitably be broken by a blow. The opponent wants to use a bow and arrow to deal with the cult cavalry, which is a big mistake in itself
The order knights in half-length armor are not afraid of the Hungarian bows and arrows, not to mention the shields in their hands. Wait for these arrogant Hungarian cavalry to know that their proud bows and arrows are in the order. How powerless the knight is. If it is an imperial cavalry, or if there is a bit of fear, the imperial cavalry is equipped with the best armor and the best horses. The knights with extremely rich combat experience and exquisite martial arts are more powerful and can penetrate heavy armor. The cavalry crossbow is indeed the most powerful unit on this continent, but the opposite is only the Hungarian cavalry, and they want to fight like the imperial cavalry. It is simply looking for death! The sharp spears in a triangular formation are like a spear that cuts through the ground, rushing forward,
The eastern cavalry in the distance is unusually calm. They sit on horseback and hold a powerful recurve bow that is one-third longer than an ordinary compound bow. They quietly watch the sect cavalry rolling in front of them. , Ming Rui’s eyes flashed bloodthirsty in the cross-headed helmet, staring at the gaze of the cult cavalry charging, like watching a prey falling into a trap doing a dying struggle, since the troubled times of Ikadiva, The East Court Cavalry’s bows have already been hit by the Swadian knights, who are also equipped with heavy armor, looking for teeth all over the floor. How can they be afraid of the cult cavalry who don’t even have full armor?
The charge of the cult knights was filled with a strange atmosphere. The spirit of the cult cavalry seemed to have heard the crackling sound of the two spears piercing the body at the same time. The kind of life and death depends on a moment. And there was a sound that every sect cavalry was equipped with a knight's stabbing spear. If it broke, they would immediately replace it with an epee that was good for slashing. They would also keep going forward, forward, and forward until they were in front of them. There are no longer any standing living creatures, duel-style charges, but unfortunately, they did not meet the Dongting people who followed the Obaro customs.
In front of the cult cavalry that was hitting like the wind, the leader of the Eastern Court cavalry just made a gesture. The hundreds of prairie cavalry were like separated waves, after shooting the first arrow in his hand. , Quickly separated to the two wings,
"Shameless!" Wallace's eyes were about to split open. He didn't expect that the other party would be so shameless that he even escaped~IndoMTL.com~ There is no plan to fight head-on at all, but the order cavalry behind I can’t see the specific situation in front. I only saw that the opponent collapsed before fighting, still making an exciting shocking sound.
Only Wallace felt the danger of a faint cold air. From the corner of his eyes, he saw a prairie cavalry loose the bowstring in his hand, and the other side released the middle and flashed to the sides. If it is a formal battle , There will be light cavalry or subordinate cavalry on the flanks of the knight’s charge, but at this moment, the group charge of the knights cannot change the direction in a short time. The entire flanks of the queue are undoubtedly exposed under the strong bow of the opposing cavalry.
"Beng Beng Beng"
A burst of shivering sound like cracking came into Wallace’s ears, and every sound seemed to hit Wallace’s annoyed nerves,
These countless clusters of precise and sharp arrows shot from both sides, just like this, draw a beautiful and fast white shadow, over a short distance, with extremely powerful penetrating power, effortlessly Shot into the body of the Templar horse from the side, red horse blood poured out from the inside of the metal armor,
hiss" The war horse in the arrow made a stern neigh, threw the cavalry on the horseback heavily, causing a burst of people in the assault queue behind to turn their horses on their backs. Falling down in the middle, everything fell apart, curved spears, bumpy shields, almost completely squeezed into a ball of people
