Realm of Power

The long bows and fast horses of the prairie cavalry use the high rate of fire of the prairie bows to burst out a hail of arrows at a certain distance. They often fail to harass them, so they pull away and retreat. However, once the real soldiers of the prairie cavalry launch a charge, there will be a scene of endless death. The prairie wolf's fearless nature will also burst out at this moment. Death belongs to the immortal sky, and the success of prairie men lies in horses and horses. Scimitars and 30,000 Xiting cavalry moved in across the board. The heavy-edged blade armor as the main force of the assault stepped into the white river in front of them. It was like the waves of pebbles stirred up in huge waves, seeming to want to drown everything in front of them. ,

Although these close-combat cavalry of the West Court Army cannot be equipped with double-layer armor like the Empire's heavy cavalry, they are also equipped with more than two layers of chainmail. Both men and horses are armored, and they are not afraid of long-range bows. They have a cavalry buckler in one hand. A heavy scimitar with a long handle in one hand. This heavy scimitar used by the prairie assault cavalry is longer than the average prairie scimitar. It is twice as long as the knife. The length of the knife and handle is generally one and a half meters, and the blade is sixty or seventy centimeters long. The sharp edge and thick back of the knife, with the help of the heavy impact of the war horse, once a charge is launched, even There is no need to slash, you just need to flatten the blade and you can draw a long line of flesh and blood in the crowd in one breath.

Martin Liya soldiers looked at these clearly heavily armored cavalry coming like a torrent, and their shouts instantly turned into fear. They ran, "Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh" hysterical voices, running through everything. The cavalry rushed in like a tide. The cavalry rushed into the river at high speed and collided with the human body. The sword light tore through the crowd, and the fighting shook the sky.

The collapse of tens of thousands of troops had stunned the generals of the Martin Liya Army behind them. In just a moment, all the troops in the river collapsed. The imperial cavalry in black armor slashed wildly inside the crowd, like a wave of waves. During the frontal collision, the flanks had already spread. It quickly began to extend towards the center, and soon, this black color seemed to cover the entire water network battlefield.

The arrows fired by the black-armored cavalry on the opposite side at close range cannot be stopped unless the heavy infantry wearing two layers of infantry armor can stop them. The water net is only so big, and only two or three thousand black-armored cavalry on the opposite side can jump into the water net. , what really caused the most heavy losses to our troops in the water network was not the assault of the opponent's heavy cavalry, but the opponent's foothold. There are a large number of cavalry archers outside the water net. These cavalry archers stand on the edge of the water net. They do not squeeze in swarmly. Instead, they draw their bows and draw strings in unison to cover the melee cavalry that rushes into the water net. They often fire a series of arrows. The clusters fell apart, just like a wheat field swept by a strong wind. They fell down in groups.

In this situation, who can still gain a foothold? Even if they still subconsciously dare not retreat, they are completely unable to organize an effective counterattack. He just stared blankly at the piles of corpses around him and the injured people struggling and wailing in the water. For a moment, he didn't know what to do!

"What are the archers in Biyayan City doing? What are they doing if they don't shoot!"

Carnason shouted with a pale face. The water network is less than a hundred meters away from here. If it were Biyayan City, from a high position, the range would be one-third farther. The enemy cavalry had all reached the water network. Biyayan City The shooters didn't even react at all. If these shooters were willing to shoot arrows to stop them, the situation in the water net would never be so miserable.

"Sir, there are still some of our people in the water network."

A general from the Cananello family replied with a stunned expression. As a large number of defeated troops in front ran back, these generals were also spinning their flags and blowing their horns frequently. He was desperately trying to gather his retreating troops, but there were still as many as ten or twenty thousand soldiers struggling and running in the water network. These soldiers had already mixed with the enemy cavalry who had stepped into the river.

"What time has it been? Do you still care so much? If you don't shoot at this time, what's the point of waiting for the cavalry from the opposite side to rush ashore! The shooters in this formation will follow my orders and cover the river immediately!" Carnason said with a livid face and anger. , there are also twelve squadrons gathered in the direction of the formation, all of them are the elites of the Cananello family. The establishment has always been full, and the officers are all outstanding disciples of the Cananello family. There are five thousand strong men in armor. These are the capital of Cananello's rule in the Irun Valley. The Cananello family can be famous. Rank among the top ten lords of Martin Riga and be able to rule the Elon Valley Like an iron bucket, they are also a very good fighting family. Even Carnason, who made frequent mistakes in front of him, was just because of his lack of experience in combat, but his initial layout was still remarkable. If he had not thought too hastily about the strength of the troops Supreme, the situation will never be like this!

But the gap lies in experience. It is not an exaggeration to say that Duo Weiyan of the imperial army has experienced hundreds of battles, not to mention the two battles of the empire on the Obaro battlefield, the destruction of the Gallic Empire and the destruction of the Gangfei Empire. Duo Weiyan Wei Yan personally participated in it, and he was already well aware of the weaknesses of Oparo's infantry operations. As for the Elun Valley, he knew Commander Carnason, as the acting head of the Cananello family, has no war experience. There were some small slave rebellions in the past, and they simply used the advantages of the regular army to directly crush them. The maximum number of troops he commanded was only three. There are more than a thousand people. Once they arrive on a battlefield like this where tens of thousands of people are fighting, Carnason is completely confused.

You know, there is a huge difference between a battlefield with thousands of people and a battlefield with tens of thousands of people. In the battle of the cold weapon era, one team after another drove up, killing blood like rivers, and the armies fought together. Basically no orders can be passed on, and most of the soldiers can see it. Yes, it is the military flag, so the military flag is the soul of an army. If the military flag is there, the general is there, so fight to death. If the military flag falls, it means the general died in battle, so why fight? If you run away early, you can survive, let alone It is said that the commander of the army is not a god, and it is impossible to pay attention to the details of the entire battlefield all the time.

Many times, when an order is issued, the commander himself does not know what the consequences will be. It is completely a gamble. This is the importance of experience. If an error occurs, the experienced person will work hard to stabilize the situation, and the inexperienced person will Then you will be in a hurry and in a mess. Who can seize the opportunity to defeat the opponent in a flash and execute it with utmost determination to the end? This is the difference between ordinary generals and famous generals.

And this difference often means life or death!

At this moment, Carnason was betting. Although it was a major mistake to attack without authorization and let the army fall into the water net, on the other hand, it also completed an important step in luring the enemy. The cavalry on the opposite side also began to enter the water net unscrupulously. Got it!

Upon hearing the order, these archers in the formation fired together, and the bows and arrows in their hands began to be raised towards the sky at 45 degrees. With a cry of "shoot," the neatly connected bow strings were loosened, and the bow strings trembled. Like a strong wind, dense cold light flew up into the air. In the direction where the cold light fell, arrow clusters hit the body of the melee cavalry in the West Courtyard, making a jingling sound.

"Attention, arrow attack." The nearby companions were shouting. The Xiting cavalry raised their round shields and quickly protected their heads. Arrow clusters fell like locusts, and screams of arrows were heard one after another. Neither the Xiting cavalry nor the Martin Liya people expected that the other party would release an arrow at this moment. Under their stunned eyes, the one who was hit by the arrow was on his horse. Most of the Dingliya people were in front of them. The Martinliya people who were originally blocking the horse's hooves were completely wiped out. The Martinliya people were already in a chaotic situation, and even more so. "Stop, why, why?" You have to shoot arrows at your own people." He looked at the arrows raining down, even his own people were covered without mercy. Many soldiers were hit by arrows falling from their backs and were immediately hacked to death by the enemy on the opposite side. The Martin Liya soldiers at the other end of the water network were also stunned. Was this arrow shot from their own direction? "Cum, don't stop!"

But Carnason had a ferocious look on his face and shouted in the direction of the hesitant shooter. In the dense rain of arrows, he saw the black-armored cavalry on the opposite side beginning to fall off their horses. This was enough. The soldiers were dead and they could still be recruited. It wasn't Carnason anyway. Most of the direct elites of the Nairo family belong to the vassals below. As long as they can dismount the cavalry on the opposite side, it is worth exchanging five for one!

A high ground outside the water network. Hundreds of Xiting cavalry were guarding from the bottom of the mound layer by layer, surrounding Duo Weiyan who was standing at the top. The golden eagle flag of the empire was flying above his head. The person holding the flag was a big man with a height of two meters. , riding on a majestic horse, motionless, Duo Weiyan frowned and looked at the fallen Xiting cavalry in the water net, and the hedgehog Xiting cavalry stepping into the water with their wings.

They are also arranged into two charging arrays with small width and deep depth.

At this time, the large group of people strode forward in response to the sound of the horn. A leader of the Xiting Wanqi leader roared loudly, waving the long sword in his hand, boosting the morale of his subordinates, and driving them away. He crashed directly into the bloody water net filled with the dead and injured on both sides, like a black rolling dragon stirring in all directions. "I ordered the Xie Feng Department and Si Lang Department on the left wing to press forward. I don't believe that the other party can still use the bow and arrow. Compete with me in Xiting! "

Duo Weiyan snorted with disdain, and coldly ordered to the messenger cavalry behind him, long-range attack, apart from the imperial bows and crossbows, Xiting has never been afraid of anyone, not to mention that the current Xiting army has already advanced in terms of equipment and weapons. It can't be compared to before. Martin's army in the water network has almost collapsed at this time. How could it be possible to give up the victory just because of a little resistance from the opponent? There is no doubt that the opponent's commander was an inexperienced rookie. He ordered the attack without authorization and lost tens of thousands of corpses. When the army was defeated, in order to stop the enemy again, Issuing such a bastard order is even worse for the opponent's military morale.

She was not sure at first, but now, Duo Weiyan is 70-80% sure.

As long as they can break through the obstruction of these water nets, as long as the iron hooves of the Xiting cavalry step on the opposite land, maybe in today's battle, the 60,000 to 70,000 Martin Li Ya army in front of them can be completely destroyed! The entire Elun Valley was captured completely at once. The emperor offered a high bounty of 1.5 million gold for this valley. If it were captured, it would be enough for the entire Xiting Department for the whole year.

In the Battle of Hokuriku, the Xiting Army had already made a fortune. Although the Hokuriku nobles were not rich, they also made a fortune after plundering the nobles from the royal capital who fled the Hokuriku. Part of this money fell into the West. The Ting army's pockets contained about one million gold, and the rest fell into the emperor's pocket. After all, the West Ting army only raided the last few In the poor northern and half-central parts, the Hokuriku families behind them all surrendered to the Empire without exception after the sinking of Ellensburg. Their fiefdoms were taken back by the Empire and their warehouses were sealed, but the Empire still left them for the Hokuriku families. On the front line, the castles where each family lives are retained as private property, and fixed properties other than land are still the private property of each family.

At the same time, the emperor issued an order to seal the sword to the Xiting Army, and then the Xiting Army was ordered to go south to Calisu, and was thrown into the war against the Martin Liya people by the emperor. The Xiting troops had just tasted the sweetness in Hokuriku, and their appetites had just been expanded. How can it be possible to satisfy the emperor? The 1.5 million imperial gold reward was released, and all the ministries were already screaming. Therefore, although the Martin Liya Army in the Elon Valley did not go out as planned, the West Court Army was determined to take this big piece of fat. Bite off the meat," ordered Xie Fengbu and Silangbu "Go forward, press forward!" The cavalry shouting orders were flying like meteors, "Go forward, press forward!" There were shouts one after another, and thousands of cavalry archers were arrayed on the river bank, roaring in order. Riding forward without fear Stepping into the red water net that has been stained with human blood in front of me, controlling the horse with both feet, the prairie compound bow in my hand is still being opened, and the flying arrows are flying out like locusts. Every ten meters forward, there will be a tacit understanding. Stop to sort out the queue, then move forward again. These Xiting cavalrymen pushed forward in the water network like an iron wall. Almost in the blink of an eye, the hundreds and thousands of Xiting cavalry did not retreat or dodge at all, just like this without any tricks. Lifting the bow forward, "woo woo woo"

The sound of the horns blowing continuously made the irritated Xiting cavalry red-eyed. The bowstring was loosened from the fingertips, and the familiar sound of "Bang, Beng, Beng, Beng!"

Streams of metal rain curtains streaked across the sky and headed straight towards the Martin Liya shooter standing opposite. The sound of war horses neighing echoed through the water network and river land. How many people were thrown onto their backs at one time, how many arrow clusters were stabbed into the body by the wolf fangs, how much blood was splashed out in the crowd, and the bloody arrow clusters were torn out from the chest cavity!

At the same time, in front of Martin's army, arrows covered the sky and blocked the sun. On top of the earthen ramparts that had been stained red with blood, countless more arrows were inserted into the soil, and the shaking arrows shone in the sun. Martin The Li Ya archer still gritted his teeth and insisted on being on the front line, watching his companions fall one by one and loading arrows on his own string. Then another round of powerful arrows came out!

The land that should have been dry and hard is now full of mud and blood flowing in a low-lying area. The number of Martin Liya archers has rapidly decreased, and the arrow clusters have become sparse and messy. Rushing out, like an avalanche, it jumped out of the water net. Without much hesitation, it surged up almost at the same time.
