18th century total war

Chapter 219
The adjutant sighed and had no choice but to obey the order.

He knew that if he continued to contradict him, Ollie would probably give the officer his rank in public.

On the battlefield, it is a serious crime for subordinates to disobey the orders of their superiors!

The urgent whistle sounded suddenly, and a group of light cavalry stepped out of the small woods, and began to slowly speed up and rush towards the logistics team in the distance.

However, this time, the enemy soldiers guarding the logistics team did not flee in a panic, nor did they form a loose line of gun battle in a flat and open area, stupidly confronting the charge of the light cavalry head-on.

Most of them established a simple defense line relying on the transport convoy without panic. Although some soldiers still wanted to escape, they were quickly forced to stay by other soldiers and officers at gunpoint.

As for the laborers, they were all driven to fixed areas one by one, leaving only a few soldiers to guard them.

The task of the Black Dragon Legion is to wipe out the enemy cavalry fleeing in the rear. Whether the laborers escape is a small problem.

In this transport team, most of the soldiers are officers who retired from the front line, and brought their own guards to 'redeem'. They are essentially infantry guards!

Just put on the uniform of the garrison corps.

If you are a careful person, you can find the difference between these infantry guards and ordinary garrison soldiers through long-term observation.

It's a pity that Oli was urged by Kleber's order and was eager to make some achievements and relieve the pressure on the front line, so he didn't think about it at all.

The most important thing is that the Black Dragon Legion has never disguised itself as other friendly forces before. For the soldiers of the Black Dragon Legion, their Black Dragon battle flags and military uniforms represent their own honor.

This makes Ollie give no association to the 'camouflage' aspect.

Many seemingly simple tactics often achieve unexpected results when used for the first time.

Olige, who was leading the charge, didn't take it seriously even though he found that the soldiers had become more disciplined than before.

After all, many soldiers in the transport team still look rather scumbag.

These soldiers are also real garrison soldiers.

Of course, they were surrounded by the infantry guards of the Black Dragon Legion, so they didn't dare to make mistakes, so they could only bite the bullet and fight.

bang bang bang~
A piece of gunpowder smoke filled the air, and the timing of this round of salvo was very appropriate. In an instant, dozens of light cavalry fell from their horses or their horses fell to the ground!
Oli glanced at the losses around him, and his expression suddenly became serious. It wasn't until then that he realized that something was wrong.

It's just that he and his troops were about to rush into the crowd and kill them, and it was too late to turn their horses around.

At this moment, Ollie's eyes suddenly widened, because he saw the soldiers of the "garrison corps" relying on the transport convoy throwing smoking grenades in unison!

Is this something that the soldiers of the garrison can play with?
And the strength of the throw seems to be the technique of the Black Dragon Legion!

Even the standing legion of Li Wei's rebel army can only be done by a very small number of grenadiers. Those troops are not in this province at all, so it is naturally impossible to appear here...

"Oh my God!
Those despicable soldiers of the Black Dragon Legion of Li Wei's rebel army have learned to disguise!
Everyone, retreat! ! ! "

In the noisy battlefield with gunshots, Oli's voice had no effect on the entire army except for a few light cavalry who could hear him nearby.

And the voice given by Ollie was quickly suppressed by the roar of exploding grenades one after another!

Ollie, who was charging at high speed, suddenly felt a cry of pain from the horse under his crotch, and then his whole body was thrown away by the huge inertia, and his head hit a wheel in front, elegant and gorgeous fainted...

Fortunately, the use of the commander has become weak at this time, and all the light cavalry knows that they only need to step over the convoy, and then slash and kill the 'cowardly' enemies hiding behind.

The frame of the transport team is not high, which is why Ollie dared to charge at a high speed. The horse can cross the frame with a single leap.

Moreover, the carriages of the transport team did not have time to get close to each other, and there were obvious gaps between them, and each gap was enough for one or two cavalrymen to slip through.

However, the biggest role of these transport team frames is not to stop these National Salvation Revolutionary Army light cavalry, but to slow them down!
Whether it is stepping over the frame or drilling through the gap, it is impossible for the light cavalry to maintain full speed, otherwise it is easy to cause serious traffic accidents...

With this deceleration, the opportunity came for the infantrymen of the black dragon army hiding behind.

A bayonet that had been waiting for a long time suddenly stabbed from directly below and obliquely below. The experienced infantry guards easily cut open the horse's belly or leg without wasting much effort. With the help of the horse's momentum, It can turn a live horse into a dead horse.

And the war horse under the crotch was in severe pain, either flying the cavalry above it, or pressing the cavalry above it under it...

If these light cavalry had charged into the crowd of the garrison, they would never have encountered such a fierce resistance. Among the soldiers of the garrison, few of them dared to face the charging horses and handed out their bayonets.

But for the guard infantry, it's not a big deal to shoot a bayonet against the horse.

The wailing of the horses quickly resounded across the battlefield. Even if the light cavalry behind saw the tragedy ahead, they had no time to turn their horses, so they had to forcefully slow down. During the deceleration, they were hit by lead bullets from nowhere. , and even throw a few grenades from time to time!
The area around the carriage frame of the transport team immediately became a slaughterhouse for these hundreds of light cavalry. What Ollie, who was already in a coma, didn't know was that he personally sent his direct troops to the chopping board of the Black Dragon Legion's infantry guards!

The adjutant who had warned Ollie in advance had shrapnel from two grenade explosions stuck in his body, lying on his side not far from where Ollie was unconscious, spitting blood constantly from his mouth.

When he was dying, the adjutant just wanted to curse Ollie fiercely, but all he spit out was his own blood!

In the end, the adjutant looked at Ollie's sweet sleeping position, and swallowed his last breath unwillingly...

He didn't understand why Ollie, who was the culprit, didn't die in such a big defeat?

An hour later, except for dozens of light cavalry who fled in all directions, most of the remaining light cavalry were killed, and a few became prisoners.

And Ollie, who was sleeping soundly, was woken up by a basin of cold water.

Ollie opened his eyes, and suddenly realized that he had been stripped of all his clothes. In front of him were two burly men with bare chest hair, staring at him with malicious smiles on their faces!
