The Lion King of Middenland, Warhammer

() But just as the ranks of these armored cavalry were about to approach the phalanx, hundreds of Ugole cavalry suddenly screamed and galloped out from the flanks of the phalanx, attacking the side of the armored cavalry in a roundabout way.They fired a torrential rain of armor-piercing arrows, and launched a swift charge towards the lined up chaotic armored cavalry.This sudden blow immediately destroyed the Chaos Armored Cavalry's attack plan, forcing them to turn around to meet Wu Guo'er's sword. Lin, broke a few spears, and then fell down with his horse and man neighing.

But the lightly armed Ugol cavalry never fought with these heavily armored opponents.They took advantage of their speed and left with one blow. They never wanted to fight. After destroying the formation of Chaos Iron Armored Lancers, they immediately turned around and fled, and returned to the cover of the gun forest on the side of the phalanx.Their arrow rain poured like the wind, accompanied by a small number of magic-breaking arrows, which shot into the ranks of the chaos armored cavalry like a storm.Although it cannot cause major casualties, it is as annoying as poisonous mosquitoes.At the same time, the musketeers and crossbowmen who had reloaded in the phalanx fired again, and the gunpowder smoke filled the air, and the armored lancers who had lost their troops had to retreat.

"Sanger, this stupid bastard! He ruined our plan to flank the unbelievers' southern phalanx! If he had flanked us from the north on time, the enemy would have been trampled to ashes. But not only did this bastard not come to join the battle, Instead, he and his donkeys were beaten by unbelievers on the way, and the whole army collapsed! The honor of the brave Kulgan Lancers was tarnished by him and his lowly men like donkeys. It's on Alyssa's little bitch who only knows how to handle stinking beasts!"

The Chaos Knight with a black beard, Mosul, the 500-man captain of Kugan's left-wing armor, swung his battle ax angrily, cursing the dead ghost Sanger who was already decapitated.In the original attack plan, Sanger's 500-man armored cavalry column should have swept across the center, swept the enemy's broken artillery positions, and then turned to the left to form a pincer attack on the southern phalanx with him.But now everything is in vain, and his own attack on the phalanx is not going well, which really makes this fierce bearded knight furious!

"That tall red-haired unbeliever boy is really cunning and mean, and he always rushes out at just the right time to sabotage our cavalry charges with the cursed Kislev cavalry. If it weren't for this damn mouse and fox old man If it’s trouble, then even without Sanger’s support, we would have taken down the damned phalanx long ago, it seems that we need to deal with this brat first!”

Another Chaos Knight with braided hair and half a monster mask covering his face also cursed fiercely, his voice was gloomy, and his fingers unconsciously rubbed the patterned nine-foot iron spear spear body.The Chaos Iron Spear, with its forked tip as sharp as a viper, was a powerful enchanted weapon he had taken as a spoil from his adventures in the Northern Wastes many years ago.

In fact, this chaotic left-wing cavalry column fought very well at first.Their first wave of charge repelled the Ugols who were confronting them, and killed the leader of the Ugol cavalry on the spot, driving them far away, and then took advantage of the victory to spin and rush at Nayu with gorgeous equipment. A square formation of golden armored pikemen.Under the impact of their iron armored horses and sharp flag spears, many of the super-long spears that stood in a row were snapped, and pieces of golden armored spearmen were trampled under the hoofs of their horses. The victory came almost so easily.

Although the general infantry phalanx basically collapsed under this blow, the tenacity of these golden armored spearmen and musketeers far exceeded the imagination of the chaos cavalry.Regardless of the heavy casualties, they rushed forward, stabbed the horse's neck and belly with long spears, and knocked down the cavalry who had not had time to cheer.The musketeers swung their swords and slashed at the legs of the horses without armor protection, their bravery was indescribable.Some warriors even grabbed the banner spears and dragged the Lancers off their horses recklessly!The breached gap reclosed in an instant, and several cavalry who rushed into the phalanx also fell off their horses one after another under the onslaught of double-barreled muskets, axes, and big sticks by the dwarf technicians, grooms, and servants on the baggage train. blocked.

But the key to ending this first charge was a red-haired knight.At some point, he had taken over the command of the chaotically retreating Ugol cavalry, and then reorganized the troops with lightning speed, and quickly returned to the battlefield to attack the flanks of the chaotic armored cavalry.This sudden two-sided attack turned Mosul's armored cavalry column into a meat pie squeezed between swords and spears, and had to retreat in panic, leaving behind dozens of human and horse corpses.

In the ensuing battle, the red-haired knight commanded more than 200 Ugol cavalry to flexibly compete with Mosul's armored cavalry column and many light-armored cavalry.He cleverly used the phalanx to cover his cavalry, avoiding any head-on reckless fight, and always rushed out to make a beautiful side attack the moment the Chaos cavalry charged.This makes the advantage of the Chaos Iron Armored Cavalry --- accelerated full charge is always impossible to implement, and it also allows the phalanx to fully exert their powerful firepower, causing great casualties to the Chaos Cavalry.

In fact, the most terrifying power of heavy cavalry is the thunderous charge of thousands of horses.After the horse, knight, and flag spear are combined into one under the cooperation of stirrups, they have the majestic power to break through everything on flat terrain.As long as you repeatedly seize the opportunity to make a determined charge, the overwhelming horseshoes and banner spears will crush any opponent without the protection of parapet fortifications and multiple layers of horse-repelling trenches.Because even if a thousand-pound to two-thousand-pound armored horse dies, it will break into pieces of spears, crushing rows of soldiers to death, and the huge kinetic energy and inertia will knock everything in front of them into the air.Charge, charge repeatedly, charge with the highest speed!This is the iron rule used by heavy cavalry!

But the tall, red-haired knight made it difficult for Chaos to attack.Because he commanded the nimble and maneuverable Wuguoer archers to swirl like water, always destroying the impact of the chaotic armored cavalry at critical moments, making them as difficult to use as mud cows entering the sea.The sharply cut sword and heavy hammer can destroy the strongest armor, but it will not cause any harm in the flowing water. This is his tactics!The bow cavalry covered the phalanx, and the phalanx supported the bow cavalry. The effect of one plus one was far greater than two, making the powerful Chaos Knight and the ferocious armor cavalry helpless for a while!

"Your Excellency, Marshall, what you have done is really beautiful! Under your command, the Ugos seem to have turned into real cheetahs!"

A Tubalo infantry officer in golden plate armor and a tall red-feathered helmet couldn't help but praise Marshall.Holding a six-foot fine steel hammer and spear, the officer over half a century old is Cicero's deputy and the current leader of the southern phalanx.In the fierce battle just now, he wielded the [-]-pound precision hammer and spear, dismounting several Chaos armored cavalry continuously like a wheel, possessing quite strong combat power.But even this veteran soldier, who has experienced many battles, deeply admires Marshall's excellent cavalry cooperation and response.

"Without the wonderful performance of the cavalry under your command, Your Excellency Marshall, I think our current phalanx would be difficult to defend. The warriors in Tubaro will remember your name, I assure you!"

The chubby officer paused, took out a water bag and took two sips, then continued to praise Marshall's achievements.The attacks of the Chaos cavalry were repelled again, and he was in a good mood, as if he had opened a sleeping chatterbox.The people of the Tyrell Federation are cheerful and talkative, and the waves and hot winds in the south have forged their enthusiastic characters.

"Your Excellency, Jerome, I'm just using some tactical skills that my teacher taught me. The backbone of this battle is your warriors from Tubalo. The phalanx that was broken by the Chaos Armored Cavalry can still be re-established." Hold the line, which is rarely seen in war. In fact, your valor is comparable to that of His Majesty's icon guards."

Marshall rode his horse close to the officer named Jerome, bowed his head modestly to pay tribute to the fat old soldier.His dark blue cheetah knight armor was full of arrow marks, and he also suffered a little injury on his head, which was simply wrapped with a bandage.However, this tall young man is in good spirits, and his dark blue eyes are full of excitement and confidence.

"If your words are published in the Great Hall of our Principality's Citizens' Assembly, I believe there will be thunderous applause. Because the warriors of the Parliamentary Guard are also the pride of Tubaro. By the way, you are very thirsty now, try some Tubaro wine, which is as precious as blood to us citizens of Tubaro."

The tall and fat officer Jerome smiled and handed Marshall a skin bag full of wine at his waist. He keenly saw the chapped lips of the cheetah knight.In the bloody battle just now, shouting, commanding and coordinating were also a tiring job.Marshall was probably on the verge of hoarseness, and it was a fitting gift.

"Thank you for the wine! Brave and generous Lord Jerome! By the way, did you see that? Our army has also defeated the enemy on the center line. Your Highness Hyde and Your Excellency Cicero did a great job. But the enemy should still have more A general attack, our test here is yet to come."

Marshall unceremoniously took the water bag full of wine, and took a few sips happily.He was really thirsty, there was no need to be hypocritical.This young cheetah knight is a person who has experienced the battle of 10,000+ troops in the Ugolan Valley, and can easily estimate the strength of the enemy army.He understood very well that this chaotic army still had cards to play, and everyone must be alert now, so as not to be dazzled by a few small victories.
