The prairie cavalry's longbow fast horse, using the high rate of fire of the prairie bow, bursts of arrow rain from a certain distance, often failing to harass, and then pulling away. ┏Ⅹ④③⑨⑨┛ However, once the prairie cavalry begins to charge, there will be an endless scene. The prairie wolf’s fierce and undaunted nature also bursts out at this moment. Death is attributed to the longevity day, which is the foundation of the prairie man. With steeds and scimitars, thirty thousand Xiting cavalry drove in across the board, as the main force of the assault, the heavy blade iron armor stepped into the white river channel in front of you, like a wave caused by a stone in a huge wave, it seems that you want to take everything in front of you. All overwhelmed,
The melee cavalry of the Xiting Army cannot be equipped with double armor like the Imperial heavy cavalry, but they are also equipped with more than two layers of chain armor. The men and horses are armored, and they are not afraid of long-range bow shooting. The cavalry buckler is a heavy scimitar with a long handle. The heavy scimitar used by the prairie assault cavalry is twice as long as the ordinary prairie scimitar, and the handle of the knife is generally 1.5 meters in length. The blade is sixty or seventy centimeters long, the sharp blade, the thick back, and the heavy impact of the warhorse, once the charge is initiated, you don’t even need to slash, you just need to flatten the blade and you can breathe in a pile of people. Make a long scar of flesh and blood
Martin Liya soldiers watched these clearly heavily armored cavalry come like a rush, and the shouts turned into fear in an instant, running, "Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh) After all, the cavalry rushed like a tide, and the cavalry rushed into the river at high speed and hit the person's body. The knife light tore apart from the crowd, and the battle shook the sky.
The collapse of the army of tens of thousands of people has already left the generals of Martin Liya stunned. Just like this, the troops in the river channel collapsed, and the imperial cavalry in black armor slashed in the crowd frantically. Like the ocean tide in the frontal collision, the flanks have spread over. It quickly began to extend to the center, and soon, the black seemed to cover the entire water net battlefield.
The black-armored cavalry on the opposite side emits a sharp arrow at close range. It is not a heavy infantry wearing two layers of infantry. The water net is only that big, and the black-armored cavalry on the opposite side can jump into the water net. Two to three thousand. It is not the assault of the opposing heavy cavalry that really caused the worst loss for the troops in the water net, but the large number of cavalry shooters on the periphery of the water net. These cavalry shooters are standing on the edge of the water net. Not a swarm of squeezed in, but unanimously pulled the bow and opened the string, covering the melee cavalry who rushed in the water net, often a burst of arrows were abolished, like a wheat field swept by a strong wind, there are groups of them. Fall down,
Under such circumstances, who can still stand on their feet, even if they still subconsciously dare not retreat, they can no longer organize an effective counterattack. Just staring blankly at the corpses stacked on top of each other, and the wounded who were struggling and wailing desperately in the water, for a while, they had no idea what to do!
"What are the archers in Yancheng doing, and what are they doing?"
Carnathan yelled pale, that the water net was less than 100 meters away from here. If it was Yancheng, it would be condescending, and the range would be one-third farther. The enemy cavalry had all killed in the water net. The archers on Yayan City didn’t even react at all. If these archers were willing to put arrows to stop them, the situation in the water net would definitely not be so miserable,
"My lord, there are still our people in the water net"
A general of the Cananello family replied with a stupefied expression. As a large number of troops rushed forward, these generals were also turning their flags around and blowing their horns frequently. Desperately to gather their defeated troops, but there are still 10,000 or 20,000 soldiers struggling in the water net. These soldiers have mixed with the enemy cavalry who stepped into the river.
"When is it all, do you care about so much? Don't shoot at this time. What's the use of waiting until the opposing cavalry rushes ashore! The archer in this formation listened to my order and immediately covered the river!" Carnathan's face was pale. Angrily said that there were also twelve squadrons assembled in the direction of the current formation, all of which were the elites of the Cananello family. It has always been fully staffed. The officers are all outstanding disciples of the Cananello family. There are five thousand strong in armor. These are the capitals of Cananello's ruling the Irun Valley. The Cananello family can be named. Liemartin Liya, the top ten lord, can rule the Irun Valley like an iron barrel. It is also a very good fighting family. Even Carnathan, who makes mistakes in front of him, is only because of lack of experience in battle, but at the very beginning The layout of the army is still remarkable, if it is not rashly thinking that the force is supreme, the situation will definitely not be like this!
But the difference lies in experience. Duo Weiyan of the Imperial Army said that it is not an exaggeration to have experienced hundreds of battles, not to mention the two wars of the Empire in the Obaro battlefield, the destruction of the Gaul Empire and the destruction of Gangfei In the empire, Doveyen was personally involved, and he knew all about the weaknesses of the Obaro infantry combat. As for the Irun Valley, Commander Canason, as the surrogate head of the Cananello family, had no experience in warfare. In the past, there was a small slave rebellion, which was completely directly crushed by the advantage of the regular army. At most, the army commanded was more than 3,000 people. Once on the battlefield of tens of thousands of people, Kana Sen is completely confused
You must know that a battlefield of thousands of people is completely different from a battlefield of tens of thousands of people. In the battle of the Cold Weapon Age, one team went up one by one, killing blood, and the army was fighting. When it came together, basically no order could be passed on. Most soldiers can see the military standard. Therefore, the military standard is the soul of the first army. If the military standard is there, the general is there, so I will fight to the death. If the military standard falls, Even if the general died in battle, what else would he fight? Run early and survive, not to mention that the commander-in-chief of the army is not a god. It is impossible to be able to notice the details of the entire battlefield all the time
Many times, when an order is issued, the commander himself doesn’t know what the consequences will be. He is just betting. The importance of experience is here. If there is a mistake, the experienced person will try to stabilize the situation. Inexperienced people will be in a mess. Who can seize the opportunity to defeat the opponent in a flash of opportunity, and implement it with unparalleled firmness, is the difference between ordinary generals and famous generals,
And this difference often means life or death!
At this moment, Carnathan is betting. Although it is a major mistake to attack the army without permission, it is a major mistake to trap the army in the water net, but from another aspect, it has also completed an important step to lure the enemy, and the cavalry on the opposite side has also begun to act unscrupulously. Enter the water network!
Hearing the command, these archers in the formation started to raise their bows and arrows forty-five degrees toward the sky. With a shout, "Shoot", the neatly continuous bowstrings were loosened. The bowstring trembled, like a gust of wind, and the dense cold light flew into the air with a single click. In the direction of the cold light, the arrows hit the Xiting melee cavalry, jingling non-stop,
"Attention, arrow strikes" nearby comrades are shouting. The Xiting cavalry raised the buckler in his hand and quickly protected his head. The arrows fell like locusts, and the screams of the arrows came one after another. , Neither the Xiting Cavalry nor the Martin Liya would expect that the opponent would release arrows at this moment. Under the stunned eyes, most of the arrows were shot by Martin Liya, who was still blocking the front of the horseshoe. People were completely wiped out. The situation in Martin Liya was already chaotic enough, and even more so, "Stop, why, why do you want to shoot arrows at your own people?" Watching the arrows rain down, even oneself. People are covered in mercilessly. Many soldiers were hit by arrows falling from their backs, and they were immediately hacked to death by the enemy on the opposite side. The Martin Liya soldier at the other end of the water net was also stunned. Was this arrow shot from its own direction? "Shoot, don't stop!"
Carnathan had a hideous look and shouted in the direction of the hesitant archer. In the dense arrow rain, he saw the black armored cavalry on the opposite side start to fall. That's enough. If the soldier is dead, he can recruit, anyway. Not the direct elites of the Cananello family, most of them belonged to the vassals below. As long as the cavalry on the opposite side can be pulled down, it is worth changing five for one!
A high ground outside the water network. Hundreds of Xiting cavalry guarded from the bottom of the mound layer by layer, surrounded by Duo Weiyan standing on the highest point. The golden eagle flag of the empire was fluttering above his head. The person holding the flag is a man with a height of two meters. , Riding on a majestic horse, motionless, Duo Weiyan frowned eyebrows watching the Xiting cavalry falling in the water net, the hedgehog Xiting cavalry stepping into the water with two wings
It is also arranged into two arrays of small width and deep depth
At this time, the brigade of men and horses strode forward with the sound of the horns. A leader of the Xiting Wanqi roared loudly, waving the large blades in his hands, encouraging the morale of his subordinates, and driving the men and horses. I crashed into the **** water net that was already piled up with the dead and wounded on both sides, like a black rolling dragon churning around." Order the left-wing Xie Feng and Si Lang to press on, I don’t believe it, the other party can still be on the bow and arrow. Fight with me in the West Court!"
Duo Weiyan snorted disdainfully, and coldly commanded the cavalry behind him, long-range attack, apart from the imperial bow and crossbow, Xi Ting had never been afraid of anyone, not to mention the current Xi Ting army, whether it is equipment or Weapons are no longer comparable. The Martin Liya Army in the water net has almost collapsed at this time. How could it be possible that the opponent’s commander was an inexperienced rookie because of a little resistance from the opponent. Ordered an attack without authorization, and lost tens of thousands of corpses for nothing. When the army was defeated, in order to prevent the enemy from issuing such a **** order, this was even worse for the morale of the opponent’s army.
I wasn’t sure, but now, Duo Weiyan is sure about it.
As long as they can rush through these water nets, as long as the iron hooves of the Xiting cavalry step on the opposite land, perhaps, today’s battle will be able to completely destroy the 60,000-70,000 Martin force teeth in front of you! The entire Irun Valley was taken down in one go. The emperor paid a high bounty of 1.5 million gold for this valley. If it was taken down, the entire Western Court was enough for the whole year.
The Battle of the Northland, the Xiting Army has already made a fortune. Although the Northland nobles are not wealthy, they also broke out after plundering the nobles who fled to the Northland. Part of the money was lost. It entered the pockets of the Xiting Army, about one million gold, and the rest fell into the emperor’s pockets. After all, the Xiting Army only raided the poorest north and half of the central part, and the northern part of the back. After the sinking of Ellensburg, all families surrendered to the empire without exception. The fief was taken over by the empire and the warehouses were sealed up, but the empire still left a line for the families in Hokuriku, and the castles in which they lived were kept as private property. , Except for land, fixed industries are still the private property of each family
At the same time, the emperor issued an order to seal the sword to the Xiting Army, and then the Xiting Army was ordered to go south to Kalisu, and the emperor was thrown into this battle against the Martin Liya people. The various ministries of the Xiting had just tasted the sweetness and appetite in Beilu. It just opened, how can it be satisfied? The emperor’s 1.5 million imperial rewards were released, and the ministries were already screaming, so although the Martin Forceya Army in the Irun Valley did not launch as planned, the Xiting Army went up and down. But he was determined to bite down this big piece of fat," order, Xie Feng and Si Lang to move forward and press up! "The cavalry who shouted orders are galloping like a meteor, "Go forward, press up!" One after another, I saw thousands of cavalry archers lined up on the bank of the river, roaring, riding horses neatly, stepping into the red water net that has been stained with human blood without fear, and controlling their feet. The horse, the grassland compound bow in his hand is still continuously pulling away, and the flying arrows shoot out like locusts. Every ten meters forward, they will stop tacitly to sort out the queue, and then move forward again. These Xiting archers pushed forward in the water net like an iron wall, almost in the blink of an eye, hundreds of thousands of horses in Xiting did not retreat in the slightest, did not dodge at all, just like this without any tricks. Lifted his bow forward, "Woo woo woo"
With the continuous blowing of long horns, the irritating Xiting Cavalry has red eyes, the bowstring is loosened from the tip of the finger, and the familiar scream "Beng Beng Beng Beng!"
A metal rain screen cut across the sky and went straight towards the Martin Liya shooter standing opposite, and the sound of war horses neighing resounded through the water nets and rivers. At a time, how many people turned their backs on their horses, at a time how many clusters of arrows pierced into the body, how much blood splashed out of the crowd, and clusters of **** arrows tore out of the chest cavity!
At the same time, in front of the Martin Liya Army, feather arrows came to cover the sky, and on the soil that had been stained red with blood, countless more inserted into the soil, swaying arrow feathers shining in the sun. Next, Martin Liya archer still clenched his teeth and insisted on the front line, watching his companions fall one by one, opening the strings and setting arrows. Then there was another round of powerful arrows spilling out!
The land that should have been dry and hard is now full of mud and blood flowing in a low-lying land. The number of Martin Liya shooters has rapidly decreased, and the arrow clusters have become loose and chaotic. Xiting cavalry flies up from the water. The front end of the net rushed out~IndoMTL.com~ It popped out of the water net like an avalanche, without much hesitation, it almost all came up at the same time
