The lord hunted down by the game

Chapter 38 The Kujit Lancers
"It's a cavalry unit again. This time there is no good terrain for the remaining soldiers of Sauron's Legion to output firepower. Moreover, they are still clearing the battlefield and are defenseless..."

Yuri couldn't help showing a trace of pity when he looked at the officers and soldiers of Sauron's Legion on the battlefield.

As for the three of Andrew, they had already left to organize their teams.

Just suffered a big loss, this time the three commanders did not disperse all the soldiers to clear the battlefield, each left half of the troops lined up in a battle formation.

Facts have proved how wise the decision of the three Andrews was!

With the familiar blue light flashing, the officers and soldiers of the Sauron Legion who were clearing the battlefield looked desperately at the positions where the Qin army and Jingchu soldiers had appeared, and 500 ancient cavalrymen appeared out of thin air!

The Kujit Lancers are light cavalry.

Of course, this is relative to the heavy cavalry, compared to the armor of the ordinary light cavalry Kujit Lancers.

The Kujit Lancers are troops from the Horse-and-Blade Battlegroup in Yuri's previous life computer. Kujit is a nomadic country, so their Lancers focus on mobility and sprint speed, and the armor is not very heavy.

Of course, there are also factors here such as the underdeveloped military industry of the Kugit Khanate in the background of the game.

However, in the eyes of the officers and soldiers of the Sauron Legion, they would rather the cavalry appear to be ancient heavy armored cavalry, which at least charge slower and give them more time to shoot!

Anyway, whether the armor is thick or not is a hole in front of the flintlock gun. The heavy armor will actually slow down the speed of the horse, which is more conducive to musket shooting.

If the test soldiers who came this time were Swadian heavy cavalry instead of Kugit Lancers, the officers and soldiers of the Sauron Legion would definitely be happier...

Of course, there are no ifs in everything!
The Kujit Lancers are a very traditional nomadic cavalry. They do not know how to charge into a wall-like formation. What they are good at is charging to demonstrate personal bravery.

As a result, the officers and soldiers of Sauron's Legion scattered on the battlefield were immediately massacred by the Kugit Lancers who swept over like a hurricane!

Yes, unlike the ancient infantry and Sauron's scattered musketeers who could shoot back and forth, facing the high-speed cavalry, the Sauron's musketeers who lost their formation support were completely slaughtered.

"There must be the birthplace of the curse, and the three cursed spirits all appeared from there!"

With a heavy tone, Andrew pointed to the humanoid target area where the Kujit Lancers appeared.

However, no one can listen to what he says now.

While the scattered Musketeers were being slaughtered, the more than 1000 platoon formations led by the three Andrews who were on alert in battle quickly moved closer and spread out to form a hollow formation.

The three Andrews even wanted to thank the scattered musketeers who cleared the battlefield. The Kugit Lancers' pursuit of them bought precious time for the musketeers in the distance to change formations!

The officers and soldiers of Sauron's Legion knew that they had to rely on the formation to face the cavalry in such a flat area, so under the restraint of the officers, even if the compatriots not far away were facing massacres, the soldiers in the formation still did not appear to desert.

From this point, it can be seen that the combat level of the Sauron Legion has reached the standard of the elite regular army of the British Empire!
It didn't take long for four hollow phalanxes to form, and these four hollow phalanxes also formed a larger quadrilateral, which could form a crossfire network with each other.

In other words, as long as the cavalry rushed into the gap between the phalanxes, they would be shot by muskets from at least two sides.

If the cavalry does not rush to the gap in the phalanx, they must face the bayonet formation on the periphery of the hollow phalanx.

Ordinary war horses have a natural sense of fear of sharp objects. Therefore, even if they are driven by cavalry, the war horse will stop suddenly when it encounters a spear formation or a bayonet formation instead of hitting it stupidly...

Any creature has the instinct to survive!
This is also the reason why many cavalry need to cover their horse's eyes when charging into the formation, otherwise they would not be able to forcefully charge into the infantry's spear formation.

But for the war horses produced by the trial soldiers, this is not a problem at all.

Like game soldiers, the horses of the Kugit Lancers have no concept of life and death. They are like a flesh and blood machine under the control of the Kugit Lancers, where they point and bump!
So, after killing all the scattered Musketeers in sight, the remaining 400 Kugit Lancers pointed their spearhead at the hollow phalanx of Sauron's Legion!
In the center of the hollow phalanx are wounded soldiers who can still move. They stand or sit next to each other, holding their muskets, ready to face the test of life and death.

After two battles, the officers and soldiers of Sauron's Legion all understood a truth.

In the face of these sudden enemies, it is useless to surrender, and you cannot escape on four legs. Only resistance has a chance of survival!
This is also the reason why the remnants of the Sauron Legion have not collapsed so far!
They don't want to die!
The Kujit Lancers quickly gathered together to form a loose nomadic charge array. They made strange whistling sounds from their mouths, raised their spears high or waved their heavy scimitars, and charged towards the hollow square of Sauron's legion. Array!

Yuri, who was staying further back, had ordered his Iron Guards to prepare for battle.

Although there is still a balance of [-] game coins in Yuri's account, Yuri has no intention of using it.

Because the newly recruited Steel Guards only have one sword or saber in hand, no muskets to use, and have not yet undergone basic formation training, which will not be of any help in the battle.

Most importantly, Yuri believed that the hollow phalanx in front could stop hundreds of Kujit Lancers, or at least cause the Kugit Lancers to suffer heavy casualties.

What's more, Yuri believes that even if the nearly 400 steel guards under his command are used alone, they can wipe out the more than [-] Kujit Lancers on the opposite side.

After all, the Iron Guard is also composed of game soldiers who are not afraid of death!

Facing the hollow phalanx, the Kujit Lancers chose very simply...

Hit it directly!
bang bang bang...

Puff puff……

Gunshots and the sound of bayonets piercing flesh sounded one after another. The Kujit Lancers in the front row almost carried out an exchange movement with the musketeers in the bayonet formation, while the fallen Kugit Lancers were under the horseshoes of the follow-up horseshoes that charged forward layer by layer. Soon to be trampled into meatloaf...

Of course, those musketeers whose formation was broken were not much better, and were quickly trampled into flesh by the Kujit Lancers who rushed away from the hollow square formation!

In just a few minutes, the thin bayonet array was completely broken by the Kujit Lancers!
Immediately afterwards, the Kujit Lancers started a scuffle with the wounded soldiers in the center of the hollow phalanx. At the same time, the Musketeers on the other three sides of the hollow phalanx turned their guns and aimed at the Kujit Lancers who rushed in. Pull the trigger!

This is the terrible thing about the hollow phalanx. Even if one side is broken through, the other three sides will baptize the rushing cavalry with lead bullets!
