Realm of Power

‘Lord Commander, give us an order and let us teach these daring guys a lesson! ‘Behind Baron Saint-Sauveur, a young and vigorous blond officer wearing armor came out of the ranks of officers on horseback.

His name is Eric, and he is the newly promoted squadron commander of the third squadron of the Ohacha National Guard. The officers under his command are all passionate young officers.

These young men advocate military reform to change the weak situation of Ohacha in the northwest region, and especially worship the Denia model that pursues mass militarization.

He believes that the concept of 'the army is the country and the country is the army' advocated by the Duke of Denia in Linguo is the good medicine that can finally change the current situation of Ohacha.

'Only by militarizing the country and infinitely raising the status of military personnel above all other classes can remote areas like Ohacha experience explosive growth in military strength in a short period of time, and ultimately from the northwest region. Stand out and become a real force in the northwest region, instead of being sandwiched between several forces and relying on the branches of other big trees to survive as it is now. These inspiring remarks of the young men were heard by the nobles of Ohacha. The floor is very marketable. ?br /\u003e

Regarding Eric's request, Baron Saint-Sauveur, who had participated in the extremely tragic Battle of Egaze fifteen years ago, seemed much more cautious.

He did not immediately issue an order to attack, but ordered all the troops to move closer to him. Ohacha's troops gathered outside the forest, facing the prairie cavalry's long-range shooting like a rainstorm. In the past, they relied on the superiority of troops. Use the tactic of advancing layer by layer to drive them away, but if you do this, when the enemy realizes that they are invulnerable, they will immediately turn around and run away without any fighting spirit.

‘Lord Commander, our slow gathering is simply wasting time and will only make the other party laugh! 'Alec was a little impatient. Reluctant to ask Baron Saint-Sauvé again

"The enemy only has a thousand people, and we have seven thousand. If you are not worried, you can use my second squadron as the vanguard of the entire army. We will definitely be the first to break the enemy's front line."

‘Yes, Lord Commander, this is too cowardly! '

The young officer's words resonated with the others, and the officers all focused their eyes on the gloomy Baron Saint-Sauveur in front of them.

There was longing in his restless eyes. They already know that just last night, this lone enemy attacked the capital Oleron Castle behind them, causing more than a thousand casualties.

It's really an unspeakable shame. Every time he thinks about this, the young officer can feel the blood in his body burning. The current situation of the country is touching the young officer's nerves every day, within a few days. The loss of the country is simply a shame and humiliation, but these arrogant guys actually treat the soldiers of Ohacha as if they are nothing and attack the capital city wantonly. It is simply extremely arrogant!

Seemingly feeling that he was being too cautious, Baron Saint-Sauveur finally gave the order to attack under the persuasion of everyone, and the neatly lined up infantry began to advance forward like a wave. Two hundred-man cavalry troops were neatly guarding both sides of the advancing infantry.

The land of September. Flashing with a withered yellow color, the spears advanced neatly, like the light and shadow shining through the gaps in the forest, giving people a feeling of coldness rising in their hearts.

‘What a spectacle! ‘Even though he didn’t want to admit it in his heart, Baron Saint-Sauveur was so excited by the scene in front of him that his blood boiled with excitement.

In the morning light, on the grassland in front of the forest, 6,000 Ohacha infantrymen approached the forest with heavy and neat steps. I can’t remember how many years I haven’t seen this scene.

‘Go forward and defeat them! '

The young officers were at the back of the queue, loudly urging their troops. Their voices were full of unquenchable excitement. Finally, there was a real battle. Although the scale was not large and the comparison of forces was extremely disparate, all this did not matter. It doesn't matter. From victory to victory, the young officers want to show the prominent figures stationed in the capital that only a strong army can truly protect them. Soldiers should be the backbone of the world. This battle will become A turning point in the history of Ohacha

‘Target 100 meters, scatter! '

The prairie cavalry began to raise the bows and arrows in their hands towards the diagonal angle. In the face of this strong pressure, some panic finally appeared. Some scattered arrow clusters were shot from a distance, but they were not blocked by the shields in the front row. Just inserting into the soft soil in front of the military formation, this weak counterattack quickly boosted the morale of the Ohacha soldiers, and their neat footsteps shook the mountains even more.

‘Lord Commander, look, the enemy is completely vulnerable! '

Eric, who had just loudly requested an attack order, pointed to the prairie cavalry on the edge of the forest opposite, and said next to Baron Saint-Sauveur, "Our army is six times theirs. No matter how strong the opponent's combat power is, it is useless. Our army's morale is Zhisheng, I believe they are now in panic! '

‘No, you don’t understand. The way the prairie cavalry fights is not what you think! ‘Baron Saint-Sauveur’s expression was quite calm, and his eyebrows were knitted tightly together. He was not one of those young officers who were just starting out and had never fought in a real war. He was so aroused by the scene of the war that he forgot about it.

War is not the heroic epic that stirs people's hearts in the words of the bards, nor is it the inexplicably exciting and magnificent event that is recorded in historical documents. War is killing, it just depends on who kills whom!

He looked at the prairie cavalry on the edge of the forest in the distance, and miserable war scenes flashed through his mind. Arrows were whizzing in, soldiers fell in rows, and the enemy could not even be seen clearly. The troops appeared. Massive collapse,

The bright scimitar slipped from the air, bringing up streaks of ferocious red blood. The ground was dyed red, the village was burning, the place where the horse's hooves passed was full of bones, and both sides of the road were empty and deserted. Every ten miles or so you can see the landscape made of human heads.

When the prairie cavalry was wreaking havoc in Ohacha, Baron Saint-Sauveur, as a lord who proposed resolute resistance at that time, was quite unforgettable about the stormy assault combat method of these prairie cavalry. His deep eyes flashed with the luster of memory, and in his hands The whip of his horse lightly slapped his riding boots, and he said seriously, "Our battle started when the two armies met in close combat, but their fighting method really started at a hundred meters!" '

‘One hundred meters? Can this loose rain of arrows be called a battle? '

Eric pointed at the corner of his mouth and sneered with some disdain. Hearing Eric's ridicule, Baron Saint-Sauveur was unwilling to explain more. He just felt the vague uneasiness in his heart, which seemed to be getting more and more serious.

‘Why is this happening? This is not the style of the prairie cavalry! 'Baron Saint-Sauveur looked around with bright eyes and murmured in a low voice. The scattered arrow clusters of the opponent were completely different from the swift and wind-like cavalry shooting that covered the sky in his impression. It was not so much a battle as a battle. It's said to be tempting!

The horse hoof prints on the river beach are a bit too dense. It really doesn't look like the scale of a thousand people zuoyou, could it be... This idea passed through his mind like a cold flash, the prairie cavalry's seduction tactics! How could I have forgotten this!

‘Order, stop advancing! '

Baron Saint-Sauveur suddenly raised the riding crop in his hand and shouted nervously,

The neat footsteps of 6,000 infantrymen stopped, and everyone looked behind, wondering what happened suddenly. There was a faint vibration of the ground, like a groan coming from the ground,

"What's going on? What's this sound?" The officers looked at each other. Soon, this faint vibration sound was as clear as dense drumbeats beating in people's hearts, and it felt like the earth was shaking. It's very clear

‘What is this sound…! 'Eric, who was so proud just now, stood there stupidly. He looked at the handsome Baron Saint-Sauveur with confusion. But what he saw was the pale face of Baron Saint-Sauveur, and his trembling body on the horse.

Nightmare, why don’t you wake up from this nightmare?

Baron Saint-Sauveur's gray-white pupils even shrunk to a small point at this moment. The five knuckles of the hand holding the riding crop turned white due to excessive exertion. Fifteen years ago, that terrible memory was removed again. come out,

'Pay attention to the flanks, cavalry, a large number of cavalry are coming...! '

The shrill shout of a scout cavalry in charge of the flank shocked everyone. Before he could finish his shout, a white line as fast as lightning suddenly shot into his throat, and bright red blood shot out from his neck. come out,

The corpse shook and fell from the horse,

"What is going on!" The Ohacha army was suddenly stunned, but war never gives the loser a chance to sigh. A minute later, where the body fell, a long black line appeared like a line falling from the sky. Eagles swooped down from the highlands

'collapse! collapse! collapse! The juliè and rapid vibration of the bowstring brought a crisp sound like a heavy rain hitting the hard ground. Black armor and white feather tails filled the sky in an instant. There was a juliè whistling sound that shook the sky, and countless white lines , like a heavy rain falling from the sky, covering the Ohacha people on the plains from the side,

‘Attention, arrow attack! ah! '

The wavy advancing line of six thousand Ohacha soldiers immediately became chaotic, and countless arrow clusters pierced the sky. At that moment, the Ohacha people below even felt as if the sky was covered.

Before many soldiers could shout out, the falling arrowheads hit them hard on the head. A squadron at the front was shot through the body by countless arrow clusters without even saying a word, and their bodies were turned into pieces. Pieces rolled down onto the muddy ground,

In the eyes of the Ohacha people, the golden color of the morning sun is as bright red as the sunset, and the black tide brings a bloody ferocity.

In the first moment of contact, the officers of Ohacha performed very well.

‘Don’t be chaotic, stand firm! '

The officers of Ohacha loudly maintained their respective troops. Some elite soldiers formed a gun formation to block the speed of the cavalry. The soldiers began to erect tall and heavy tower shields, nailing their feet firmly to the ground and holding them tightly in their hands. Holding the cold metal shaft of the spear,

"Rumble" The raindrops turned into muffled thunder, and the vibrations on the ground made everyone's hearts beat wildly.

"Stay steady, there is nothing to be afraid of. The enemy's cavalry cannot break through the spear array!" Ohacha's officers tried hard to maintain their formation. Although each of them turned pale with fear, no one chose to retreat or flee.

The teeth of the soldiers in the front row involuntarily made a "clack" sound, their faces turned pale, and the ground was shaking, as if it would crack at any time.

In the remote northwest region, the number of cavalry has always been scarce. Most soldiers were not mentally prepared to deal with the cavalry. At the moment of the collision, the prairie cavalry riding on the horse was stabbed into the body by a spear, and the entire body was ejected, blocking them. Lancers in front. Then he was knocked away by a greater reaction force, the gun barrel was broken, and blood was spilled from the collision place. The second team of prairie cavalry quickly rushed in with the sound of wind and ferocious shouts, holding a sharp scimitar in hand,

In almost no minute, the thin temporary formation of spears, like building blocks without support, was completely overwhelmed by the heavily armored melee cavalry of the Royal Court, and the black cavalry completely rushed into Oacharang's queue. This momentum is like a violent surge, overwhelming everything, destroying everything, and the thunderous momentum. No one, no order, no commander can stop it! The Ohacha soldiers were so frightened that they ran back and said, "Oh my god, run for your life!"

In front of the Ohacha soldiers, the bright sword lights all over the mountains and plains rolled like lightning. Wherever the surging black-armored cavalry passed, the soldiers were scattered from the middle by the black cavalry group before they had time to react, under the heavy pressure of the thundering cavalry group. The soldiers were completely unable to withstand the attack and could not even steady their steps, so they retreated steadily. One after another, they were stabbed through by the opposing cavalry, and their bodies were chopped into dust. Trampled to pulp by the horses' hooves, the fierce attack of the armored cavalry surged like a huge avalanche. No one can stop it. "It's terrible! You can't even stop it for a moment!"

The energetic young officers of Ohacha have been completely frightened, and Eric is even more at a loss. Their energy is insufficient, and they only rely on their enthusiasm. When faced with a sudden change, they are a group of panicked rookies.

Only then did they realize that the opponent's number was almost equal to their own, and on the flat plains, the infantry was completely unable to compete with the cavalry group. The spear array mentioned in military scriptures was simply a joke in front of such a number of cavalry. , the bodies of the soldiers were trampled and scattered in all directions. No matter how loudly the officers screamed, the scattered soldiers were scurrying around like headless flies.

Everyone is running for their lives,

The cruelty of the war shattered all the dreams of the Ohacha officers. Victory turned out to be so far away.

This is not war, this is massacre, naked massacre,

No one expected that the impact of the cavalry group would be so terrifying, it was simply an unstoppable torrent of steel. On the plain, it was ridiculous to expect to use infantry to block the horseshoes of the cavalry group.

Many squadrons were maimed the moment they made contact, and turned into corpses underground in less than two minutes.

The crescent-like sword light swayed in front of the eyes of all Ohacha, like a sickle from the devil harvesting human lives from hell. When it fell, there was a tumble of bloody heads. Most of the soldiers of Ohacha had never been on the battlefield. The city militiamen on the battlefield were stunned by the brutal massacre in front of them.

‘Don’t kill me, I surrender! ‘

A soldier was so frightened that he yelled in fear at the oncoming black cavalry. He was answered by the sharp light of the sword falling head-on.

Before he could shut up, the head separated from the body and flew into the sky like a kicked ball.

The sound of horse hooves was like muffled thunder, which made Ohacha Jean tremble with fear. The squadrons blocking the middle one by one seemed to be swept in by a huge black typhoon. Those who were sucked in were spit out piles of minced meat residue,

Whether they were people or horses, they fell to the ground one after another under the weight of this black iron armor torrent. The earth-shattering sound of huge horse hooves was a long and decisive sound that launched a fatal blow to the Ohacha people. Ming

Everywhere was the hesitant clamor of the Ohacha people, 'Run away! Run away! ''Dead! ‘

"It's over, it's all over!"

It wasn't until this moment that Baron Saint-Sauvé woke up from his nightmare. What appeared in front of him was the collapsing Ohacha army. The soldiers fled in all directions. The disintegrated queue covered the entire hilly land, and black spots of jumping heads were visible. Like water that has opened a floodgate,

They trampled, crowded, jostled, and collided with each other, and their white weapons were scattered all over the place.

There were discarded flags everywhere. Behind them, the black cavalry followed closely. They kept using their bows and arrows to drive away the defeated army in front, consuming the physical strength of the defeated army. As long as they found signs that the defeated army wanted to stay, they would Rows of arrows, like the wind, were shot out from the hands of these black cavalrymen who followed behind them like ghosts, until the last man fell to the ground with arrows full of arrows.

Corpses littered the mountains and plains, and bright red human blood flowed along the ravines on the plain. The massacre lasted for four hours before five thousand prairie cavalry finally stopped at the river beach. The river was crystal clear, as calm as when it came.

A Qianqi commander got off his horse, picked up a broken pebble on the river beach, and poured it heavily towards the river in the distance. The water splashed up and was reflected in the red sunlight.

In the Battle of Ohacha, according to post-war statistics, the survival rate of this battle was zero. A total of 7,354 soldiers did not survive.

The commander, Baron Saint-Sauv, was chopped into pieces with knives during the fierce battle, so that his identity could only be confirmed with a severed finger bearing the Saint-Sauv family heraldic ring.

The demise of the main force of Ohacha left Fort Olleron, the capital of Ohacha, completely exposed to the attacks of the steppe cavalry.

There is a huge hole in the rear of the anti-Julius family alliance.

Three days later, news came from Fort Olelon that the Marquis of Pambouf announced its withdrawal from the alliance. This battle changed not only the fate of Ohacha, but also the fate of Ohacha.

The news spread, and the entire anti-Julius family alliance was shaken. First it was Haicheng, then Oacha, who would be the next? People were panicking, (To be continued...)
