The mighty lord of online games

Chapter 639 The Scale of Victory Has Tilted

Six thousand cavalry, maybe in modern times, six thousand is just a number that can be counted by a primary school student, but in the wilderness, six thousand cavalry is covering the sky and covering the sky, making people frightened.

At the beginning, about [-] cavalry came up.

After being attacked by crossbowmen at a distance of 150 meters, more than a dozen cavalrymen fell off their horses one after another, but it did not affect the fighting spirit of many cavalrymen.

The crossbowmen in the first row only had time to shoot a round of crossbow bolts before they were forced to retreat. The second row and the third row shot the crossbow bolts in their hands one by one, and chose to retreat in a panic. Next, the enemy's cavalry lost less than [-] cavalry and continued to move forward. Zhang Qiang had to order the god-armed crossbow archers to advance and shoot arrows at the same time to block the enemy's charge. Three horizontal lines.

The entire battle formation retreated 150 meters with the retreat of the crossbow battalion, and opened a distance of about 200 meters from the enemy cavalry.

Seeing that the light infantry could not resist the enemy's cavalry charge, Zhang Qiang had no choice but to drop a group of heavy infantry. The heavy infantry's spears, broadswords, and steel shields finally stopped the enemy's cavalry charge at a distance of 50 meters. Both sides strangled Together, facing the stable heavy infantry, the enemy's light cavalry finally stopped. Zhang Qiang let the crossbow troops advance to the flank 50 meters behind the heavy infantry to cover them, and the god arm crossbow covered them on the other flank.

The enemy's cavalry was restrained, and the casualties on both sides rose sharply. When the enemy's cavalry lost about 800 people, they had to retreat.

Zhang Qiang and the others wiped off their sweat, feeling terrified. If it hadn't been for the reorganization of the troops and the replacement of the system of knights leading the troops to fight against the lord to fight against the enemy, how could those soldiers who have not undergone joint training be able to fight against the enemy in such a critical moment in time? I am afraid that the enemy's cavalry has disrupted Zhang Qiang's main formation at this time, and the [-] heavy cavalry and cuirassiers behind will take the opportunity to charge up again, and Zhang Qiang will suffer a defeat. The hit to his prestige would be huge.

So far it is not easy, this may be a temptation of the enemy, if it is a full-scale attack, then Zhang Qiang's troops would have been in chaos, maybe King Yaroger on the opposite side was still upset, and did not take the opportunity to send all the cavalry to press on and defeat them in one fell swoop Zhang Qiang's troops.

Seeing the enemy cavalry pressing again, Zhang Qiang immediately dispatched all the scout cavalry and rangers to harass the enemy cavalry. There are more than 2000 heavy cavalry and cuirassiers left in the formation.

Zhang Qiang gritted his teeth and once again ordered Fatis' heavy armored cavalry to attack Fatis' cavalry.

Seeing that the enemy's cavalry still had great combat effectiveness, Zhang Qiang ordered all the heavy infantry units to push to the front line, took the opportunity to expand the formation, and expanded the battlefield. The light infantry protected the crossbowmen and slowly advanced to a place 50 meters away from the heavy infantry .

King Jaloger himself led the cuirassiers and his guards to press up.

The defensive power of the cuirassier and his guards is much higher than that of the light cavalry and cavalry cavalry. The first volley of the crossbowmen and the god arm crossbow troops only caused seven or eight cavalrymen to fall off their horses to the enemy. , This is bad news for the heavy infantry on the front line. Compared with the light cavalry, the enemy's heavy cavalry has much higher impact, combat effectiveness, and lethality.

It's all a head-to-head battle.

The two sides were fighting fiercely on the battlefield, Zhang Qiang had no choice but to bring his guards closer to the battlefield.

Ready to join the fray at any time.

The enemy's heavy cavalry slammed into the formation of the heavy infantry. The horses neighed, and the screams of bones and flesh shattered made people frightened. , It makes people feel empathetic, the heavy infantry lined up, under a collision, there were many breaches, and they were not injured or fell during the collision. The heavy cavalry who was pulled off the horse leaped over people's heads, fell, jumped up, and the sound of weapons colliding There was a sound, some heads flew into the air, some fell to the ground with serious injuries, and were trampled by their companions.

There were hundreds of enemy heavy cavalry who broke through the formation of heavy infantry. After experiencing a wave of crossbow arrows from the crossbowmen, there were still nearly 50 horsemen rushing towards the crossbowman line [-] meters away.

Driven by the knight officer, the light infantry quickly passed through the gaps between the crossbowmen arrays, and they lined up ten meters in front of the crossbowmen in a chaotic manner. approaching enemies.

More than a dozen assembled cavalry scouts and messenger cavalry from knights and civilian knights quickly rushed out from the gap in the middle to fend off the enemy's heavy cavalry. There is no choice. If they live, they can immediately jump up one level and become knight servants. If they die, they will be loyal to the lord and fall down on the road to fame and fortune.

The enemy's heavy cavalry units from three directions were like three heavy arrows shooting at Zhang Qiang's three light infantry battalions. After firing a wave of crossbow arrows, at this time, no matter what the aim is, under the command of the knight, they concentrate on shooting the enemy's heavy cavalry rushing to the front.

The heavy cavalry at the front of the enemy were covered with crossbow arrows from Zhang Qiang's crossbow battalion, and blood flowed. Several cavalry rushed to the front and fell off their horses. They were trampled and seriously injured by the horses of the teammates behind them, and some died.

The cavalry who faced the god arm crossbow in the middle suffered the most losses. An average of three god arm crossbows could cause a knight to fall off a horse, and an average of five god arm crossbow arrows could kill a heavy cavalry.

In the end, the god arm crossbow retreated to a place less than 50 meters away from Zhang Qiang's military guards before stopping to form a team.

The more than 100 Swadian guards led by Zhang Qiang slowly drove up, and placed two rows of crossbows in front of the God Arm Crossbow Squadron. The battalion and the retreating crossbowmen ran back and forth in front of them, preparing to prevent the enemy's heavy cavalry from breaking through the light infantry battalion.

In the middle, about five of the enemy's heavy cavalry were still on their horses, and the others were about 30 meters away. They pulled out their crescent axes and leather shields on their backs, and ran towards the formation of the light infantry battalion.

Five heavy cavalry broke through the formation of the light infantry battalion without difficulty, causing about seven or eight light infantry casualties, and then circled behind them, a heavy cavalry rushed to Zhang Qiang's guard, the Swadia Kingdom Guard The four cavalry rushed to the rear of the light infantry battalion.

On both wings, about 20 knights rushed into the light infantry battalion.

The two sides fought at a place less than 200 meters away from Zhang Qiang.

As the war progressed, all the heavy cavalry in the middle that rushed to Zhang Qiang's squadron of the Swadia Kingdom were wiped out.

Those rushing to both sides were still fighting stubbornly, and the enemy's heavy cavalry continued to break through the block of the heavy infantry and rushed towards the formation of the light infantry battalion.

Zhang Qiang waved his hand to let the guards of the Kingdom of Swadia attack, help the light infantry battalion in the middle, and let the god arm crossbow squadron shoot at the enemy heavy cavalry fighting behind the light infantry battalion on both sides.

At the front, Fatis' cavalry showed the combat effectiveness of the knights of the Swadia Kingdom, chasing the enemy cavalry squad for annihilation.

Halaus had to invest more than 600 light cavalry troops with heavy losses to pursue the ranger troops led by Bestur, and liberated more cavalry and heavy cavalry to deal with Fatis' cavalry troops and Lecky's cavalry troops. The troops returned to protect the heavy infantry, and fought the enemy's fallen heavy cavalry on the left and right.

The two sides fought in full swing near the Kurao Stone Bridge, and Zhang Qiang's elite guards were always just dealing with the crisis that had to be dealt with.

He also had about 4000 infantry and crossbowmen, as well as supplies, siegemen, farmers, and militia, who did not go into battle, but only [-] infantry, [-] crossbowmen, and [-] cavalry went into battle against the enemy.

At present, it seems that King Jaloger should be distressed, because he has invested all [-] cavalry, light cavalry and heavy cavalry, and even has his own elite cuirassier guards.

At dusk, King Jaloger finally realized his mistake. At this time, he had lost 1000 light cavalry and scout cavalry, more than 600 cavalry and [-] cuirassier troops.The total loss reached more than [-] people, but Zhang Qiang's troops were helpless.

Zhang Qiang may have lost more heavy infantry, two light infantry battalions, and one crossbow battalion. It seems that the number of troops lost has reached 100, but those are ordinary soldiers. Heavy cavalry and cavalry troops are the same The cavalry who suppressed him fell face to face, but he still didn't lose too many elites.

King Jaloger had to order a retreat.

In the end, only more than 800 elite cavalry escaped back, and about 500 cavalry were captured.

Zhang Qiang ordered all the infantry to guard the camp. Zhang Qiang led all the cavalry in pursuit. Two thousand and eight hundred cavalry, plus more than 500 scout cavalry, plus Zhang Qiang's guard heavy cavalry and black flag Kujit cavalry, Zhang Qiang's cavalry strength There are still more than 600 people, and there may be some cavalry with the enemy's tomahawks, weapons remaining, and some injuries. These people are still fighting high and their morale is high. After all, have they won?
After chasing to the city of Kurau, King Jaloger took the remaining [-] soldiers and the remaining [-] cavalry who had not escaped to Serezke Castle and fled.

Seeing Zhang Qiang's aristocratic flag appearing at the foot of Kurao City, a heart-piercing and painful cry erupted from the top of Kurao City. It was a cry of joy and luck that finally saved his life.

Ignoring the cheers of the soldiers of the Principality of Vikia on the top of the city, Zhang Qiang led the cavalry to bite King Jaloger's troops tightly, and chased them out, leaving only more than 300 wounded cavalry into Kurau City.

After chasing for less than ten miles, there was thunderous hoofbeats behind him. Zhang Qiang looked back and saw that it was the cavalry of Rod Laboye Principality led by Mamunboye. There were more than 1000 people, many of whom were heavy cavalry and wore light cavalry. Light armor, it seems that they have been besieged for some time, and their armor and weapons have lost a lot.
