Realm of Power

In the southern part of the Great Plain of Kyoto, Istanbul, a sheet of raindrops rolled over like this, covering the sky and the earth. Thunder roared among the low clouds, making people's ears buzz. Lightning and blue light flashed across the earth, illuminating the earth. Liang Rui Tang Ting The fiery red armor on Na's body was like a wisp of flame between heaven and earth. A coalition camp in front of it that had not yet been completely built was emitting thick smoke. The corpses of coalition soldiers lay scattered all over the area. The East Court Cavalry was speeding past. Stepping over it, the horse's hooves rolled up pieces of white water. None of the cavalry looked at these corpses. The target was just towards the front. "Your Highness, the direction is correct. Since they have touched the periphery of the coalition base camp, , the coalition base camp should be right in front! "A Dongting Qianqiu commander wearing a wolf helmet was riding on a war horse. He wiped the blood-stained scimitar on his leg armor and put it back into its sheath. Xiang Ce looked respectfully. Ruitang Tingna came on horseback to report,

"This direction is indeed the route to Aslando, but the coalition adopts a step-by-step strategy. Even if they get close, it will be difficult to gain the advantage of a surprise attack!"

An accompanying Hungarian guide confirmed the statement of the East Court Thousand Cavalry Commander. Although he knew that one of the two empires must be very powerful and his words may not be recognized by the other party, he still reminded him very responsibly, In response to the Hungarian guide's reminder, Ruitang Tingna's expression did not change.

Her bright eyes swept across the ground in front of her, and she didn't know what she was thinking. With only 50,000 Dongting cavalry, she wanted to swallow up the coalition headquarters with 300,000 troops in one go. Even if all 50,000 people were filled in, she would only Even if you are afraid, you can't do anything. Ruitang Tingna is not a fool. How could she not see this? It's just that the army came with full vigor. Did she choose to retreat just because of fear? What would be lost would not only be Ruitang Tingna's face, but also the face of the entire Dongting people. On the grassland, the most admirable thing is not the scheming conspirator. But a brave and fearless warrior! In this battle, she had to build up her prestige and not be as exhaustive as the fat man. Could it be that she still lacked courage? "Everyone, bring your scimitars and hunting bows, and hunt to your heart's content on this land!" Ruitang Tingna rolled up the riding whip in her hand and ordered in a cold voice. They all looked excited and shouted. They all galloped out from beside Ruitangtingna and headed forward with their respective cavalry. The wild grass under the horses' hooves swayed crazily. In the white raindrops, countless war horses swooped down like eagles, covering the front of them all at once. Confused earth,

The bait tactic, as the name suggests, is to release bait. This is the most commonly used and most skilled prairie cavalry. One of the most defenseless tactics for the enemy is to tear a gap in the opponent's perimeter with a sharp knife, then break up part of the army into pieces, and cast it like a big net. There are five hundred people in the team, all riding light and fast horses. There are two barrels full of arrows inserted in the cross-bag, which facilitates continuous harassment of the target. If the target does not launch a counterattack, it will be difficult to move under the harassment of the cavalry. But if the target wants to launch a counterattack, the decoy troops will start to retreat,

Once the opponent is provoked and chooses to bite, it is basically a dead end. The prairie cavalry has its own unique communication method. The scattered cavalry will quickly close up at this moment and cut off the target's retreat from the back. In front, the main force of the prairie cavalry, which has been lingering without showing its face, will also open a huge pocket. This method of combat was learned by the prairie people from the wolves. In fact, in this era, in field operations, except for the Imperial Army, which had crossbows that were enough to suppress the bow shooting tactics of the prairie cavalry, the infantry groups of other countries were not interested in this kind of combat. The tactics are not very good, so in this era, cavalry is still the top combat force in combat. Unless you choose a field battle with cavalry against cavalry, you can only choose to retreat to a safe and stable stronghold.

Ruitang Tingna chose this tactic to break the Allied Forces' step-by-step tactics. As a pure grassland tribe, a people who grew up on horseback, facing the Allied Forces' step-by-step tactics is naturally different from most of the grassland tactics that have been left for hundreds of years. Comparable to the forgotten Hungarian army,

The Hungarians have settled in the Barro region of Central Europe for hundreds of years. Although they are still of steppe blood, their customs have changed a lot. Not much of the courage of their ancestors has been retained. In addition, the influence from the surrounding areas has affected the behavior of their ancestors a hundred years ago. Grassland tactics are also mostly forgotten, like In the Battle of the Rise of Hungary, the hundreds of thousands of Hungarian Spanish troops actually adopted a step-by-step battle posture. Attacking the city and fortifying the stronghold would only drive away the prisoners and launch a sea of ​​​​people, which would have long cut off the sharpest mobility of the steppe cavalry. The battle was completely lost. If there were really 500,000 prairie cavalry,

But the Dongting Cavalry is different. They are pure grassland people. In their thinking habits, there is no habit of fighting. There are only wolves on the grassland. They are ferocious, fierce, strange and cunning. They want to make the 50,000 Dongting Cavalry look like Huns. How is that possible for the tooth cavalry to attack the coalition base camp like that!

The cavalry strength of the coalition forces has been defeated by the Hungarians. Now it sounds like there are 300,000 people. In fact, to put it bluntly, they are just a group of infantry gathered together. Let alone 300,000 people. No matter how many there are, there is nothing to worry about. , the highly mobile prairie cavalry is the natural nemesis of the infantry group. Under the rain of arrows of the prairie archer cavalry, even if the infantry group has an iron wall, it will be nailed to the spot, let alone continue to advance northward. Lulan area rescue To rescue the trapped 200,000 remnants of the coalition forces, for the southern coalition, every extra day of delay is an extra day of danger. Therefore, Ruitang Tingna can conclude that the opponent's last choice is to bite them and be dragged to death. To collapse, or choose to ignore the fact that 200,000 people are trapped, leave the Istanbul Kyoto area immediately, and choose a stable stronghold before stopping. In that case, no matter what happens to the coalition forces in the end, the morale of the military will drop to freezing point! There is even a possibility of internal collapse! When the time comes to gain momentum, anything is possible!

The prairie cavalry who entered through the gap pushed forward in the direction of the entire fan, like mercury pouring down the ground, expanding to a width of thirty or forty miles. On a mound, Wallace, the strong knight of the Temple of the Wishing Tree, Just about to raise his hand high, Leading a thousand Templar cavalry down the slope, suddenly his eyes narrowed into a line, his arms tugged, and the horses stopped on the spot. Amidst the noise of the rain, the rumble of horse hooves was far away and could not be heard. , but it seems to be close to everyone's ears. In front, a group of 500 prairie cavalry also saw the cavalry of the Order. Without much hesitation, the 500 prairie bows had already begun to draw. "Hungarian cavalry! How dare these guys rush here?" "You are really looking for death." Knight Wallace glanced at the corner of his mouth. Turning his arm, an oval cavalry shield appeared in his hand. He did not take the cavalry in front of him seriously. Two raids by the Hungarian cavalry almost caused the coalition base camp to collapse. It even led to the death of the Grand Knight of the Order State, Commander Luo Shan, so this time, the Order State specially sent out 25,000 Knights Templar, each of whom is a strictly selected knight with firm faith, loyalty and reliability , and the equipment has reached the level of half-body armor,

Even for the powerful troops placed in the south of Obarro, the Templar Cavalry is enough to rank among the top five in terms of combat strength.

As for the Aden camel cavalry who were beaten miserably in front. The Templars have never recognized their opponents as cavalry. The advantages of camels are their good endurance and body odor, which can easily frighten the opponent's horses in melee. However, their shortcomings are also very obvious, that is, they cannot behave like well-trained horses. Like war horses, it forms a real group impact. How much power can a camel cavalry that cannot even achieve group operations really exert in cavalry operations? For the real battle, Wallace was confident of an array of a hundred trained Templars. Enough to defeat two hundred to three hundred camel cavalry,

Aden is a country with many desert oases. It is impossible to raise a large number of war horses, so camels can only be used instead. In this battle, it was impossible to temporarily replace camels with war horses, and it was also impossible to find so many excellent riders at once, so 60,000 camel cavalry were put into the battlefield. Their performance was indeed quite unsuitable if it was in the desert. Even the imperial cavalry may not be an opponent of the camel cavalry, but this is not a desert, this is a plain. The combat effectiveness of the camel cavalry is naturally greatly reduced here, but the situation is different for the Temple Order State.

The Order State, which occupies the finest Calabash Forest turf in the south, also possesses the best war horse in the south, the Rowan Bolma.

This is recognized as the most expensive horse in Obaro and the most beautiful horse in the world. It is known as the noble among horses. It is the purest descendant of horses. It is a true purebred horse with great potential and endurance. It has fine hair and an outstanding tail. When it is excited, it will naturally show its noble qualities. There are even rumors that the horse of Grand Knight Wallace, who is known as the descendant of the sacred beast Unicorn, is a pure white Rowanbol horse. When running, the pure white mane looks like a gorgeous and eye-catching battle flag. , performed extremely well in several wars, so they were called the "Battle Flag". "All forward! The wish lasts forever!"

Seeing that the cavalry from the prairie on the opposite side dared to raise their bows and arrows, the knight Wallace protected his upper body with a shield and held up the heavy knight's spear. Seeing the knight's appearance, the other cavalrymen of the Order of the Order raised their spears and taught him. The Tuan Kingdom's knight spear is absolutely domineering in appearance, with a four-meter-long barrel and a rose-red lion shield flag flying at the front. , that is the battle flag mark of the Knights of the Order. Under this battle flag, hundreds of cavalrymen of the Order formed a triangle with Wallace as the center. Hundreds of stabbing spears were like a huge sharp point. The cones moved forward neatly and fiercely towards the front. The rain hit them and turned them into a blur. It felt like a sharp sword coming through the air.

According to Wallace's assumption, even if the number of prairie cavalry on the opposite side is greater than his own, it is true that the Hungarian cavalry is tough, but the shortcomings of the Hungarian cavalry are also very obvious, that is, the Hungarian cavalry is not very disciplined. Against the strict attack formation of the Order's cavalry, the opponent will inevitably be broken by one blow. If the opponent wants to use bows and arrows to deal with the Order's cavalry, it is a big mistake.

The knights of the Order wearing half armor are not afraid of the bows and arrows of the Hungarians at all, not to mention the shields in their hands. These arrogant Hungarian cavalry will know later that the bows and arrows they are proud of are in front of the knights of the Order. How powerless, if it is the Imperial Cavalry, or if you are still a little afraid, the Imperial Cavalry equipment Knights with the best armor and best horses, extremely rich combat experience and superb martial arts skills, and powerful cavalry crossbows that can penetrate heavy armor are indeed the most powerful arms in this continent, but the opposite side is only the Hungarian cavalry. To actually want to fight like an Imperial Cavalry is to seek death! The sharp spears arranged in a triangular formation are like a spear that cuts through the earth,

The Dongting cavalry in the distance were extremely calm. They were sitting on horseback, holding powerful recurve bows that were one-third longer than ordinary compound bows. They looked quietly at the cavalry of the Order rolling in front of them, their sharp eyes clear. His eyes flashed with bloodthirsty luster in the cross forehead helmet, staring at the charging cavalry of the Order. Feng's gaze was like looking at a prey that had fallen into a trap and was struggling to its death. Since the chaotic days of Ikadiva, the bows of the Dongting cavalry had hit the Ridian knights who were also equipped with heavy armor all over the ground. How could Xian Ya be afraid of the cavalry of the Order who were not even equipped with full body armor?

The charge of the knights of the Order was filled with a strange atmosphere. For a moment, the spirits of the knights of the Order seemed to have heard the crisp sound of the spears from both sides piercing their bodies at the same time. The kind of life and death depended on the simultaneous sound of the two sides. Sound, every cavalry of the Order is equipped with a knight's thorn If the spear breaks, they will immediately be replaced with heavy swords that are good for slashing. They will keep going forward, forward, and forward until there is no longer any living creature standing in front of them. They will charge in a duel style. Unfortunately, What they met were Dongting people who did not follow the customs of Obalo.

In front of the cavalry of the religious order that came like the wind, the leading Dongting cavalry captain just made a gesture, and hundreds of prairie cavalry were like separated waves. After shooting the first arrow in their hands, they quickly moved towards The wings parted, "Shameless!" Wallace's eyes widened. It was about to burst. He didn't expect that the opponent would be so shameless. He actually dodged it and had no intention of facing it head-on. However, the cavalry of the Order behind him couldn't see the specific situation in front. He only saw that the opponent collapsed before they even fought. , still making exciting impact sounds,

Only Wallace felt a hint of danger from the cold air. From the corner of his eye, he saw a prairie cavalry loosening the bow string in his hand. There will be light cavalry or retinue cavalry on the flanks of the charge, but at this moment, it is impossible for the knights' group charge to change direction in a short time. The flanks of the entire queue are undoubtedly exposed to the strong bows of the opponent's cavalry.

"Bang bang bang"

Waves of trembling sounds like cracking came into Wallace's ears. Each sound seemed to hit Wallace's troubled nerves.

These countless precise and sharp arrow clusters shot from both sides created beautiful and fast white shadows, crossing a short distance and shooting effortlessly from the side with extremely powerful penetrating power. Entering the body of the Templar cavalry horse, red horse blood gushes out from the inside of the metal armor.

"Neigh" The war horse that was hit by the arrow made a shrill neighing sound, and threw the cavalry on the horse hard, causing the charging queue behind to flip over. People shot and horses trampled, causing countless casualties. It was like a giant falling while running. , everything fell apart, the curved spears, the concave and convex shields, the men and horses almost completely squeezed into a ball (to be continued.)
