Eagle Byzantium
Chapter 31 Mutual Clash
The sound of artillery stopped, and the anger of all Mosia's horse warriors was ignited. Even if Kadam restrained the heavy cavalry of the rear group in time, a large number of Wallachian light cavalry on his left and right wing came like a rain of artillery. Shooting and rushing out of the snow and fog stirred up by their own horses' hooves, they drew their bows and began to engage in the outpost harassment battle that they were very good at.
Among them, the target of the Wallachian light cavalry on the left wing was the group of artillery that was pushed out by the enemy and fired wildly. They saw that these cast iron or cast copper pipes sprayed flames and projectiles and required a long time to reload. "We moved forward like the wind, killing them back into the vehicles, and then Destroy these weird big pipes of prisoners!" With this thought, the hooves of the more than a thousand plundering light cavalry were about to fly. Many of them leaned under their stirrups and held the horn bows in their hands, staring at each other intently. Artillery positions, their riding skills are terrifying, they can easily hide under their saddles and dodge enemy arrows.
In addition, a similar number of Wallachian light cavalry on the right wing could not hold back and rushed towards Gawain's left wing, where almost all of Gawain's cavalry teams gathered.
Even on the central outpost line, in front of Gawain under the banner and the three hundred cavalry attached to the Red Hand Brigade, hundreds of enemy light cavalry rushed towards them. They set up clusters of arrows full of hatred, gathering and scattering. They were approaching the location of the Roman Emperor.
Arrows came in a whoosh, some hit the side of Gawain's mount, and some hit the custodial guard beside him, but these arrows didn't even damage the sides of Gawain's silver-gray armor, they bent, slipped, and fell one after another. Falling under the emperor's horse, the rest of the forbidden soldiers also said, "Hahaha!" Everyone, including the emperor, expressed ridicule at the weak arrows of the Wallachian light cavalry.
General Kadam continued to try to gather the troops.
But the shrimp cannons planted on the ground by the attached cavalry began to roar!
On the central front, more than a hundred balls of orange light exploded at the same time, and then large tracts of shotgun sprayed out, whizzing sideways and smashing over - this kind of light shrimp whisker cannon can be carried by an attached cavalry, and the other can Carrying projectiles and ignition short (The other end of the short pole is a spear blade, which can also be used for close combat). Before the battle, fill up a shotgun. When the enemy cavalry approaches, concentrate more than a hundred bullets and shoot them out at the same time, which is enough to kill the enemy cavalry. Feel the sour feeling of "a wasp riding on your face"!
"Long live Romana!" Before the firepower of the cavalry's shrimp-bearing cannon could be poured in, all the deployed shooting muskets followed the cry, squeezed the triggers, flicked the dog-head matchlock, and began to fire in a deafening manner.
Bullets and shotgun shells "washed away" the entire Wallachian cavalry group that rushed towards them. They originally tried to approach the enemy and shoot arrows, but the enemy did not give them a chance and directly taught this group of steppe cavalry how to behave. No, they don't need to behave. : Rows of Wallachian cavalry, some of their horses flipped over in the air, some fell to their knees and fell to the ground, and were instantly crushed.
On the right wing, Nexus and the gunners dragged the artillery back. At this time, the tanks lined up in a row also showed their ferocious faces. The various artillery and muskets behind the carriage panels also began to fire under the control of the craftsmen. Fiercely firing, the more than a thousand Wallachian cavalry who rushed towards them fell back like a tide after leaving behind more than a hundred corpses.
The Ogus Cavalry and Archery Regiment and the Guards Cavalry on the left took the initiative to attack. They drove their "Helan" horses and drew their buffalo horn bows to directly engage the approaching Wallachian cavalry. Crazy hedging and shooting. Are the Wallachians the rivals of the powerful Oghuz? In addition, the bows, armor, and helmets were not as good as those of the people, so they were shot down one by one. The rest of the people still wanted to circle around on both sides, or pretend to be defeated and shoot back the horse arrows.
But all this was "pediatrics" in the eyes of the Ogus cavalry. They laughed and charged directly from the center, shooting left and right, or shooting directly forward. Those Wallachians who tried to return the arrows , his back was shot through one after another, and he died on the spot before he could even coil his bow and draw the string.
What started as a false defeat soon turned into a real defeat.
The cavalry on the second line of the Bulgarian side were horrified to see many Wallachian cavalry lying on their saddles covered in blood, with many arrows stuck in their backs and being carried by their mounts, running back to the formation in twos and threes.
Following behind him was the enemy general Diogenes. He commanded Emperor Gawain's left-wing cavalry. Taking advantage of the victory, they rushed all the way to Kadam's right wing. Diogenes personally drew his bow and shot down the cavalry. The four flag officers rushed back with great force, but the rest of the cavalry on Kadam's right wing did not dare to resist or pursue. After the tide receded, they moved several hundred feet away.
"Long live!" The infantrymen of the brigade and the Imperial Guards warriors who stayed at the front line shouted angrily upon seeing this.
"Tell the whole army to be careful." At this time, looking at the enemy's retreat and disintegration, Gawain still did not dare to take it lightly. He wanted to control the rhythm of suppressing the Mosia cavalry, which was to first defeat their spirit, and then use Harassed by long-range artillery, and finally eaten one bite at a time.
As a result, before the emperor finished speaking, the "Imperial Tomb Forbidden Army" on the second line on the right let out a roar that broke off the charge. This group of "axe-raising barbarians" was probably caused by blood spurting, or it may be caused by greed for merit. They formed a group The team started running with their battle axes, passed the stationary red-hand cavalry array, and began to launch a self-initiated assault on the enemy - Mikhail could not control his team at all!
"Bastard, what are they doing? These lawless Danes and Saxons!" Gawain was very angry when he saw the reckless behavior of the right-wing infantry line.
In the Battle of Durazzo, it was this group of barbarians who rushed without discipline, which led to the counterattack of the Normans on the plains, and caused Emperor Alexius to turn victory into defeat.
The Imperial Guards even blocked the route of Diogenes' troops who were returning, and the infantry and cavalry collided with each other and lost their original steps and order.
Kadam seized this opportunity and ordered his reserve cavalry on the right wing to outflank again. Most of these people were rebellious Pronian and Bulgar knights. They were all wearing armor and used heavy bows to shoot forward, killing and wounding many Imperial Guards at once. This group of frightened reckless men had no resilience, and soon they were defeated like a landslide, carrying kites and dragging axes.
The terrified Red Hand Cavalry rushed forward to fill the gap in the battle line, but a part of the enemy cavalry was able to turn around and rushed directly to Gawain, drawing their bows and shooting arrows.
A correct version can be found in the 16-9 book forum!
The spearmen and shooting soldiers of the Red Hand Brigade bravely stepped forward to protect their emperor. After a long battle, they finally forced the enemy back.
The Bulgarian cavalry took the opportunity to charge again. Thanks to Nexus's artillery team in front of the right wing fortress, they fired another round in time, disrupting the enemy's cavalry's pace. The battle lines of both sides were retracted, and the confrontation and calm were restored.
