King’s Kingdom
Chapter 69: Out of breath
The scene was very **** at one point. After killing the rebel cavalry like chopping melons and vegetables, the Lanyin heavy cavalry patted their buttocks and ran back to the main line in a low-key manner, waiting for Theodosius to dispatch on the right wing.
This is a hearty little victory, and Theodosius is also very satisfied. This kind of cavalry confrontation in front of the two armies is no less meaningful than the battle generals in the Romance of the previous life.
When one side sees its own people go out to fight, but is easily annihilated by the enemy, this is a huge blow to morale.
Just like now, the rebels have begun to feel their hearts fluctuate. The peasants and soldiers who were forcibly conscripted into the army are all thinking about the way forward. The demise of this cavalry has made their fears unbearable.
"Nice job!" Theodosius came back to his side, the panting Critidos gave a thumbs up, while the girl who was a wife raised her brows proudly. Recently, she and Theodore When getting along with the West, the expression of emotions has changed a lot, and it is no longer the previous character similar to facial paralysis.
It is not difficult to annihilate the enemy cavalry. The enemy not only has a huge gap in training with the iron armored paladins and the Rhine knights, but also the equipment is almost the difference between the rich and the beggar, and they can't even do a set of chain armor. .
The well-equipped Lanyin heavy cavalry is naturally easy to deal with them. After all, even the prairie hussars under the command of Critidos have undergone a change of clothes. Everyone has a set of excellent full-body chain armor, not the previous one. That kind of rudimentary grassland scale armor.
The battle between cavalry is the bloodiest. Even if you are wearing the best armor, you can easily be fatally injured or even die under the confrontation of horses.
Even if the Rahn knights wore such fine armor, they still could not completely avoid being killed by high-speed sharp spears when the cavalry dashed, but relatively speaking, their survivability was greatly improved.
This is also the reason why Theodosius intends to further stack their armor... Anyway, this group of people has a strong load-bearing capacity, and the iron-boned horse under the crotch is also a pressure-resistant expert. If conditions permit, try to increase the thickness of the armor, which is also conducive to improving their fighting power.
However, under the multiple blows, the rebel cavalry did not even have the ability to resist, and there was no chance to hedge against the Lanyin heavy cavalry. The moment the formation was divided, their defeat was already set.
Not to mention the more deadly roundabout blows of the steppe hussars.
So, in this cavalry duel, the Lanyin Kingdom was unharmed!
Duke Brando's face was already extremely ugly at this time, and his gloomy expression seemed to be able to squeeze out the water. An ace army under his command was easily annihilated by the enemy, and he couldn't even exchange his life for injuries.
This made him feel distressed and dull at the same time. Before that, he was proud of having a cavalry force of 300 people.
"Go forward! Go forward! Crush this bunch of damned things! Kill them all! I'm going to kill them all!" Duke Brando gradually became furious, no longer indifferent and high-spirited at the beginning.
The furious roar made the nobles around him shuddered, and some people's eyes had changed when they looked at him.
After all, not everyone is willing to follow him to rebel together, and even if they are willing to rebel, it is not to support him as a king.
It took a few minutes to reach the various square formations under the order, and in the chaos, the huge army of up to 50,000 people moved slowly and unevenly.
Seeing the dark crowd pressing towards him like a mountain, Theodosius licked his lips, and he also felt some pressure.
Not only was he commanding the army to fight head-on for the first time, but the sheer number of enemies also made him nervous. After all, even if it were 50,000 pigs, even if the total... Lan Yin army could capture it for three days, it wouldn't be enough!
Tension turned into nervousness, but Theodosius' judgment was not affected. In his opinion, although the number of enemies was large, in fact, his morale was probably worrying.
He frowned slightly, thought for a while, and found that things were so simple, so he started with morale!
The steppe hussars have returned to the left flank. The central army is the central military area directly under Theodosius. After removing the Varangian Guards arranged on the left flank, the central army has a total of 2,400 men armed with spears and wearing heavy armor. warriors, and eight hundred archers.
There are two large military regions on the left and right wings, and two small military regions are connected to the central army. This is a deliberate arrangement made by Theodosius.
Because the number of enemies is larger and the width of the front line is larger than that of the Lan Yin Army, in order to avoid being pinched by the enemy forces relying on the width of the front line to attack the flanks, more troops were deployed on the left and right flanks.
"The enemy army on the right side of the target! The first round of shooting!" Theodosius ordered the 400 archers with elven bows beside him. Ordinary archer.
The range of the elf bow can reach more than 500 meters, and the limit range of ordinary military bows made by humans is only 200 meters. If they are arranged at the back of the infantry queue, their range will be pitifully short.
Theodosius focused his attack on the enemy's left flank, mainly in order to cooperate with the Lanyin heavy cavalry on the right flank, weaken the enemy's formation thickness, and make it easier for the knights to move.
I saw more than 800 arrows fall into the crowd accompanied by a scream, and a scream rang out. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com
Lack of protective equipment, even the rebel peasants and soldiers with only a few shields have no way to do anything, even the softest arrows will cause a lot of damage if they fall on them.
Two rounds of arrows fell, and the chaotic but dense formation caused them great damage. The 1,600 arrows caused more than 400 people to fall to the ground, screaming and screaming incessantly.
Before they could recover from the rain of arrows of despair, Theodosius issued a second order.
"All knights, charge to the right side of the enemy army, destroy their rightmost phalanx, and try to drive them to the direction of other enemy forces!"
The rumbling sound of hooves reappeared on the battlefield, and the heavy footsteps of the iron-boned horse resounded on the battlefield like thunder.
They charged aggressively from the flank to this fragmented thousand-man team, and this formation of peasants and soldiers was also unexpected, and completely collapsed before they could make contact with the knights.
They were crying and screaming. They only hated that they didn't have four legs, and they ran wildly in the direction of the friendly army, just like sardines. As long as they were crowded around the same kind, the probability of death would be greatly reduced.
The collapse was like a plague, quickly infecting the adjacent square formations. The peasants and soldiers, who were already demoralized, saw their comrades beside them rushing towards them, and subconsciously believed that their side had been defeated.
So, before the entire formation was in contact with the enemy, it completely lost its organization along with it. No matter what the regular army overseeing the battle did, it could not prevent the collapse from happening.
"Damn it! These idiots who can't support the wall!" Duke Brando was even more irritable, and he had to send the 500 regular troops around him to suppress the rout.
The means of their suppression were very simple and rude. Under the instigation of Duke Brando, a **** massacre began.
