Heroes of Silver Moon
Chapter 329: : Old King's Means (38)
Before the war, the force ratio between the Hawke family and the Hood family was 2500 to 6500.
In other words, the Hood family has nearly three times the strength of the Hawke family.
Moreover, coupled with the exhaustion of the soldiers of the Hawke family, the power ratio should be one to three!
But from the morning until now, the Hood family has thrown in 2,000 light infantry, 1,200 archers, 1,500 spearmen, and 1,000 infantry cavalry, a total of 5,700 people. troops.
Even excluding the withdrawn militia archers and the first wave of light infantry who placed the baffles, there were still 4,800 people, but they still couldn't take down the Hawk family on the opposite side.
Now the only troops that Marquis Hood can use are the 800 reserve soldiers in the main formation, the 200 remnant soldiers who were withdrawn from the first wave, and the 700 militia archers who were just withdrawn.
The two hundred remnant soldiers who were withdrawn from the first wave suffered heavy losses when they placed the baffles, and they simply lost their fighting spirit to continue fighting.
The weapon of the militia archers, except for the longbow, is only a short sword, and it is definitely useless to send them there now.
In other words, now that Marquis Hood wants to break the deadlock, he can only send his reserve soldiers into the battlefield just like the Hawke family.
But doing so would undoubtedly tell the nobles watching the battle in the royal capital that their Hood family was also cornered.
All strength must be used to defeat this Hawk family from the desolate land.
6,500 people beat 2,500 people, and in the end they had to use reserve soldiers. Afterwards, their Hood family would definitely be laughed at to death!
Although he was extremely reluctant to send out reserve soldiers, Marquis Hood couldn't help feeling distressed when he saw the fallen Hood family soldiers on the battlefield.
For the lord, apart from the territory, the most precious wealth is undoubtedly the retainers and private troops.
In order to train these private troops, the Hood family spends a lot of gold coins every year.
Now every time a soldier falls, it is a pile of gold coins, constantly moving away from the Hood family.
Now the battle loss ratio between the Hawke family and the Hood family has been maintained at about one to two.
In other words, for every two soldiers they died in battle, they could kill one soldier from the Hawke family.
If the battle damage continues like this, even if they defeat the Hawke family in the end, the Hood family will definitely suffer heavy losses!
"Send the order to let the reserve soldiers go up and attack the Hawk family's defense line from the left and right sides." After thinking over and over again, Marquis Hood finally figured it out.
Made, the nobles watching in the royal capital, just make a joke!
Anyway, it was not their private army who died in the battle here, so of course they don't feel distressed.
Now the Hood family's casualties are close to 1,500 people. If the final casualties exceed 2,000, then their Hood family must suffer a hemorrhage afterwards.
Pensions for casualties, maintenance and replenishment of weapons and equipment, and re-recruitment and training of soldiers.
Just thinking about it in his head made Marquis Hood feel dizzy for a while.
Ma De, this war burns more money than money!
"Yes, Lord Marquis." After receiving the order, a retainer beside him quickly directed the reserve soldiers of the formation and rushed towards the two sides of the Hawke family.
There are 800 reserve soldiers of the Hood family, half of them are light infantry with short weapons, and the other half are spearmen with spears.
Under the command of the retainers, these reserves were divided into two parts, the light infantry went to the left wing of the Hawke family, and the spearmen went to the right wing of the Hawke family.
As for the front of the Hawke family, the light infantry of the Hood family's first attack and the spearmen of the second attack were still crowded together, and they couldn't squeeze in even if they wanted to.
The Hawke family's main formation watched the reserve soldiers of the Hood family attack from the left and right sides respectively, and Valery's eyes could not help but flash a trace of solemnity.
On the current battlefield, the soldiers of the Hawke family fought one against two, barely able to maintain their formation.
But if these 800 soldiers join the battlefield, the formation of the Hawke family will collapse in an instant, and then the entire battlefield will fall into melee.
In the melee, the Hawke family, whose numbers were absolutely at a disadvantage, couldn't last long at all.
However, although this is a crisis, it is also an opportunity. The Hawke family has been waiting for this opportunity since the war between the two sides began.
Even before the war, the Hawke family obtained two thousand sets of leather armor, but the disadvantage of numbers was still the flaw of the Hawke family.
Therefore, if it is played normally, the Hawke family will lose 100%.
And to win, the Hawke family must use a surprise army from other places to directly establish the victory.
To shoot a man is to shoot a horse first, and to capture a thief is to capture the king first. As long as the defense around Marquis Hood is empty, Valéry dares to use the cavalry of the Hawke family to charge directly at the main line of the Hood family.
Now, this opportunity was finally waiting for him.
Although there are only more than one hundred cavalrymen of the Hawke family, although there are more than seven hundred militia archers and more than two hundred remnant soldiers beside Marquis Hood.
But for Valéry ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ all this is nothing to worry about.
Who let it be, this is the Hawke family's only chance to win!
The reserve soldiers of the Hood family attacked from both sides of the Hawke family. Just as Valery had expected, the Hawke family's defense line could not be maintained in an instant.
On the left and right sides, the line of defense formed by the two spearmen and the reserve soldiers was directly overwhelmed.
After being attacked from the left and right sides, the shield wall formed by the heavy infantry directly in front of the Hawke family also lost its formation.
The formation of the shield wall was chaotic, and the Hood family's light infantry and spearmen instantly poured into the Hawke family's formation like a flood.
Since then, there was no line of defense, no formation, and soldiers from both sides fought together. Under the attack of nearly three times the enemy, the soldiers of the Hawke family had a hard time resisting.
Because the two sides fell into a melee, in order not to hurt their own people, the archers on both sides also stopped attacking at the same time.
The vassal of the Hawke family, who commanded the archers, looked back at Valery after seeing that the two sides were completely engaged in a melee.
Seeing the retainer looking over, Valery nodded firmly.
After receiving Valery's signal, the retainer asked the Hawke family's archers to throw away the long bows in their hands and draw out the long swords, short swords, and daggers from their waists.
Under the roar of this retainer, the archers of the Hawke family also joined in the melee.
Although the melee abilities of the archers are low, in this melee, every time their Hawke family lasts a moment, it will increase the odds of winning for their Hawke family.
Seeing that the soldiers of the Hood family were all dragged into the melee, Valery took the helmet handed over by the attendant and firmly put it on his head.
