Power and Empire Chapter 1813: Falcon’s Arrow (3) Next

The defeated army in front was killed and retreated. At the same time, under the squeeze of the cavalry behind, it rolled like a blood gourd, chasing up the defeated Gallic army in front, cutting off his head, and carrying Hu Keqi of the team squeezed the horse violently, his eyes were blank, his murderous eyes narrowed slightly, his sharp eyes passed through the rain curtain in front, his spears were like forests, and the back of an infantry corps that was waiting. Leaning on the mound next to the road, a huge pincer-shaped army was formed. Pikemen and archers were scattered in groups, or stacked together. The densely packed weapons pointed here at the same time, and the cold light of the tip of the gun and the arrow was in the air. It was a little dazzling in the rain, and at the same time, a thorn wall was erected in front of it that could block everything. If you bump into it without noticing it, you will immediately be pierced into a hedgehog by countless lancets and arrows

"The whole army! Stop chasing!"

Hu Keqili held up his right hand with a solemn expression, his horse hoof stopped heavily in the blood on the ground. Human blood splattered like flowers. The imperial cavalry behind him stopped their horses one after another. The cavalry were covered in blood, their eyes full of violent factors were still bloodshot, and the nose wings of the warhorses were white, and the wind was floating in the wind. The smell of blood, but the sturdy momentum, made the opposite Lescart slightly moved. The Falcon Empire Cavalry is indeed a well-deserved elite unit, and the rapid assault is like a tiger, and it can be instantly affected by a command from the commander. Stop it,

Hu Keqili slowly came out of the cavalry formation, his eyes swept across the Gaul army formation in front, and the opponent's defense was almost impeccable. Large swaths of the bodies of the defeated Gaul army were piled up in front of this formation, but the soldiers behind looked like He saw nothing, his gaze was firm like iron. He retracted his gaze from the military formation in the distance. Hu Keqili knew that he had encountered a tricky and fierce opponent. He licked his chapped lips and felt the person. The salty taste of blood. The empire general smiled coldly at the corner of his mouth,

Is a cold-blooded guy! He threw thousands of his companions to the enemy and killed two-thirds by himself. The other party unceremoniously raised a butcher knife and killed one-third. "Who is familiar with the Gaul banner, tell me. The Gaul army is in front!" Hu Keqili turned around and raised his hand. The saber that had been stained with human blood pointed at the military formation in the distance. Someone who was really familiar with the Gallic army flag replied, "Look at the shield and gun superimposed marks on the flag. It should be the Eighth Infantry Regiment of the Gaul Northern Army. !"

"The Eighth Infantry Regiment?" Hu Keqili was searching for information about this enemy force in his mind

"I heard that it was a glorious unit that participated in the Battle of Ankra! The commander was a general named Lescott, with a tenacious fighting style and best at fighting tough battles!" The Imperial Cavalry who answered him continued.

"Oh. You know very well!" Hu Keqili's gaze swept across the face of the imperial cavalry with a bit of surprise. He was so familiar with the Gaul army, he would never surpass him in the Falcon army. A hundred, even the kind of military adjutant who specializes in the war situation all day will not have such detailed information

"I am Quentin, the guide assigned to the Central Army by the Southwest Intelligence Division." The imperial cavalry smiled awkwardly. Seems to see Hu Keqili's thoughts, saying, "Before we set off, each of us must memorize the history of the enemy's troops and the character of the enemy's generals!"

"Guide? There seems to be such a thing!"

Hu Keqili touched his nose subconsciously and remembered, before the battle began. His Majesty Falcon did say that a guide who is familiar with the terrain and the enemy's situation should be sent from the Southwest Intelligence Department to all armies, but he has never cared about it. I didn't expect this guide to be an excellent intelligence officer! It seems that such a configuration is very necessary, otherwise the two armies will not know who their opponents are after the battle. That would be called an injustice. For example, the defeated Gaul army would never know which unit of the Falcon Empire cavalry that attacked them!

"After the fifth squadron, the other squadrons are turning to Glennberg!"

Hu Keqili commanded loudly that the rain fell too timely. The fire that burned Gulensburg had been completely extinguished, and even the thick black smoke in the sky seemed to clear away a lot. His goal was Gulenburg. Rather than tell the difference between life and death with the Gauls, as an imperial general with outstanding vision, he knew very well that it was time for this joyous encounter to end, and the cavalry turned one after another, shouting and moving their horseshoes. Running towards Grumburg behind him, he saw the Falcon Cavalry turn around and leave arrogantly. The Gaul Eighth Army on the opposite side was silent. Not all the Falcon Cavalry were evacuating. A cavalry of two thousand men was like a nail. Stopping in place, looking at them coldly, it is the fifth squadron as the back of the palace. Although there are only 2,000 people, it looks at the picture of Gaul's eighth infantry like a tiger looking at its prey.

The same arrogant Eighth Infantry Regiment can bear such a contemptuous look. "My lord, the other party is too arrogant, let us fight back!" A squadron commander of the Gaul Eighth Infantry Regiment complained to Leskat. Please fight "Their main force has dispersed, and there is only a small force in front of us!"

"Rush up, as long as there is a staggered opportunity, they will definitely be able to kill them!" another squadron captain yelled,

The other squadron leaders are also beginning to commotion, sir, do it! Lescart’s expression loosened. He was thinking that the opponent was a cavalry after all. Relying on the infantry to chase the cavalry is an adventure in itself. At this moment, I don’t know who yelled.

"My lord, there are no squadrons in the Seventh Squadron of the Imperial Guard! Brothers' heroic souls are watching you!"

Lescart trembled slightly, and his eyes reddened. He took a deep breath and ordered, "Light infantry advance and entangle them! Other troops advance slowly! If you find enemy cavalry returning, immediately The battle flag is getting closer, do you know it!"

"Yes! I understand!"

Gaul’s squadron captains were enthusiastic and eager to fight, and they ran back to their respective troops.

Soon, with the 3,000 fastest light infantry as the advance, the formation of the 8th Infantry Regiment moved "forward, forward!" The officers urged the soldiers, and the light infantry was very fast. Wearing thin leather armor, the defense is mainly a light circular shield tied to the right hand, and the weapon is a light long sword or hatchet. The distance is shortening, and the morale of the light infantry has expanded to the extreme. Kill! Kill them all! Shouting slogans, at one hundred meters, it’s impossible to take into account the orderliness of the formation,

At 80 meters, the middle and the left and right sides are already out of touch, like an arc that stretches and bends violently,

At fifty meters, the dull Falcon cavalry on the opposite side began to move. I saw these cavalry proficiently withdrawing from the war horse weapon slot and inserting them inside. The cavalry with a half-moon bowstring assaulted the crossbow. They were fluent and quickly moved the triangle. The piercing arrow is placed on it

The gaze is flat and steady, the power of the piercing arrows can penetrate the armor of heavy infantry at a distance of 50 meters, not to mention the light infantry of leather armor,

"Aim!" The commander of the Falcon Central Army Fifth Squadron gave an order, and the Central Army cavalry slowly flattened the crossbow body of the assault crossbow in his hand. Light infantry, the air has stopped at this moment,

"Attention, the arrow strikes!"

The officer shouted ~IndoMTL.com~ It was like being hit in the face by a pair of huge invisible palms. The shouting Gaul officer was shot through the chest with an arrow, and then shot in the forehead with another arrow. The impact of the crossbow arrow turned into a face-up posture. With a fierce pressure inward, blood exploded from the body of the Gaul officer so easily, a fifty-meter arrow attack! More terrifyingly shocking, go forward! go ahead! The enthusiastic Gaul light infantry saw the assault crossbow raised flat in front, and their feet trembled subconsciously

"Shoot!"

Countless clusters of arrows hit like raindrops, and the Gaul soldiers in the front row fell down. The Gaul infantry behind them raised their small bucklers. The small bucklers could not provide complete defense. Can only protect the upper body of Gaul soldiers,

‘Wow! Whoosh! Whoosh! "When the second round of arrow clusters flew, the Gaul infantry who held up their shields to block their faces exposed all the bodies below their chests to the sharp arrow clusters, and with very unwilling eyes, they fell again. ,

"The whole army is retreating!" It was like having had enough. Without waiting for the Gauls to recover from the blow, the captain of the Falcon Cavalry opposite waved to his men and led people to quickly turn around and ran away. ! The Gauls behind the anger jumped, they wanted to continue chasing, but looking at the ground full of corpses, they gave up angrily!
