The Rhapsody of Mounted Blade Players

Chapter 144 Encirclement and Killing of Beast-Transforming Heavy Cavalry (Part [-])

After marching for most of the day, Count Reiss led his troops to a small river. Seeing that the cavalry horses were getting very tired from rushing on, Count Reiss ordered them to rest here. After a while, let those war horses go to the river to drink some water.

There is a small river on one side, and a few hundred meters away is a hill, which is lushly covered with various plants.

In order to avoid being ambushed, Count Reiss sent many scouts to the opposite mountain to check if there was any enemy ambush while the troops stopped to repair.

After some reconnaissance, the scouts who were sent out found that there was no ambush on the opposite mountain, which made Count Reiss relieved. I thought that my worries were unfounded. You should know that Ye Tianlong had only a few troops. Except for the more than [-] troops in the novice village, the remaining troops should have been tightly entangled by the other two enemy armies. There was no chance of coming here to ambush him.

However, Earl Ruis would not have thought that the so-called [-]-strong army of the Kingdom of Sirona had been completely annihilated by Luo Chenguang overnight. This also led to Ye Tianlong being able to mobilize some troops to contain this army. A heavy cavalry that transformed into beasts.

Just as the soldiers of the Kingdom of Swadia stopped by the river to rest and eat dry food to replenish their strength, Ye Tianlong, who had been following them not far behind, led his troops and quickly approached.

This immediately aroused the vigilance of Count Ruis, who immediately began to assemble his heavy cavalry troops, ready to launch a counterattack at any time.

As a result, the cavalry on his side had not yet finished gathering. In the other direction, Luo Chenguang had already led thousands of people to block their return route.

After discovering that he was actually blocked from both ends, Count Ruis finally realized that something was wrong. After all, once the cavalry lost the space to maneuver, their combat effectiveness would be greatly reduced. The opponent had obviously planned this in advance, that is, to Block this heavy cavalry unit in his hands here.

Unfortunately, it was too late for Count Reiss to understand this. Now they are blocked on both sides, and they have a river on one side and a hill full of trees on the other. Both of these terrains are not convenient for the cavalry to move. If they go down to the river, The speed of the cavalry in the water will definitely slow down greatly, and they will directly become a living target for the opponent's muskets and artillery. If they enter the mountains, the dense speed will make it impossible for the cavalry to charge up at all, and they will soon be overtaken by the opponent's infantry.

And if they stay still, as the two armies arranged by Ye Tianlong continue to approach from both ends, the small space will be completely compressed, leaving the heavy cavalry under his command no room to even charge and accelerate. .

After quickly observing the surrounding terrain, Count Reiss decided to charge at the enemy army in front first. After all, that army only had about a thousand people, while the heavy cavalry unit under his command numbered two. With more than a thousand, maybe you can break away from the opponent's car array!

So soon, all the beast-turned-heavy cavalry were gathered by Count Ruis and began to slowly approach the unit led by Luo Chenguang, while the remaining thousand infantry and crossbowmen stayed behind. Ye Tianlong, who was guarding the rear, suddenly came with his troops.

After Luo Chenguang saw the enemy's heavy cavalry troops gathering, they began to slowly accelerate towards him, and quickly ordered the soldiers to prepare for battle.

These lycanthropic heavy cavalry of the Kingdom of Swadia are very powerful in combat. Luo Chenguang did not dare to be careless. After all, the nobles of the Nord King had organized thousands of elite soldiers to go to the Kingdom of Swadia. Fighting against the autumn wind, but the result was that the heavy cavalry force was beaten to a loss and the generals were defeated. They had no temper at all, and in the end they could only retreat to the country in despair.

As soon as the enemy entered the artillery range, Luo Chenguang immediately ordered the gunners to fire. Unfortunately, these small-caliber artillery were obviously not lethal to these powerful lycanthropic heavy cavalry. Except for those unlucky ones who were directly hit, the others Even if the heavy cavalry was affected by the explosion, they would only suffer minor injuries at most, and they could still continue to charge.

Seeing that high-explosive shells were not lethal to the enemy, Luo Chenguang quickly asked the gunner to replace the shells with steel ball shotguns. At this time, the enemy cavalry also began to accelerate a little bit, and was almost within the range of the shotguns.

Before the gunners completed loading shotgun shells for the artillery, hundreds of musketeers equipped with flintlock rifles had already launched rounds of volleys amidst the orders of the officers.

These large-caliber flintlock rifles are still very powerful. After those lycanthropic heavy cavalry are hit, their thick armor will be directly penetrated, and then the bullets will continue to advance and penetrate into their flesh. After some of the more unlucky lycanthropic heavy cavalry were hit three or four times in succession, their blood volume quickly bottomed out, and they fell off their horses screaming.

And just when the beast-turned-heavy cavalry approached within fifty meters of the car formation, the shotgun shells of the small-caliber artillery were finally loaded, and suddenly more than a dozen artillery pieces sprayed at the rushing enemy cavalry. Large tracts of shotgun were released.

This wave of attacks knocked down more than two hundred lycanthropic heavy cavalry at once, and the group of enemy cavalry at the front was almost wiped out.

However, the enemy cavalry, which had experienced the power of artillery many times, had no intention of retreating and continued to charge towards the car formation.

"Fire! Keep firing!"

Under the loud shouts of the officers, after the soldiers completed loading the faster-loading rifles, they pulled the triggers again and fired at the lycanthropic heavy cavalry that were getting closer and closer to the vehicle formation. The dense bullets beat every enemy cavalryman and his mount into pieces.

And because of the closer distance, the soldiers in the car formation can already clearly see the appearance of the enemy soldiers who mutated into half-human and half-animals under the influence of the animalization agent. Looking at these, they look like those in the legends. The veterans were fine with the monster-like enemy heavy cavalry, but the recruits were a little panicked.

But at this time, Li Rufeng and Lin Chong, several martial arts masters, also led more than [-] spearmen in the army who were specialized in close combat to the front of the formation. This immediately made the recruits feel more at ease. After all, in the previous battle, , they have all seen how powerful these masters are.

At this time, the enemy heavy cavalry was only more than [-] meters away from the car formation. Under Luo Chenguang's order, a group of soldiers with amazing arm strength threw grenades at the enemy cavalry.

After these grenades were thrown out, they immediately exploded violently not far in front of the vehicle formation, killing at least hundreds of lycanthropic heavy cavalry.

However, before the bombardiers could throw the second wave of grenades, several enemy heavy cavalrymen, who were covered with bruises and bruises, suddenly rushed out from the smoke that had not yet dissipated, and then carried out their long heavy lances. Launched a sprint towards the car formation.

The lance poked into the extremely strong armor of the artillery carriage and broke weakly. However, the artillery carriages that had long been connected together to form a vehicle formation only swayed slightly, and there was no big problem at all. hinder.

Upon seeing this, the beast-turned-heavy cavalrymen either pulled out the two-handed swords slung on their backs or pulled out maces from their waists, and then brandished their weapons and smashed into the car formation in front of them.

The sharp spearheads stuck in front of many artillery carts were quickly chopped off or bent by these beast-turned-heavy cavalry.

However, at this time, the spearmen who had been waiting behind the artillery cart all thrust out their spears under Lin Chong's order. These spears were not the dead objects inserted on the artillery cart before, but were held in In the hands of a soldier with at least Ming Jin cultivation, they all had good spear skills under Lin Chong's teachings. At this time, they all thrust out their spears with astonishing power. The beast-turned-men were heavy The cavalry was caught off guard and was directly knocked off their horses by the densely thrusting spears.

Soon, more lycanthropic heavy cavalry rushed in front of the car formation and began to engage in fierce hand-to-hand combat with the spearmen.

Compared with the lycanthropic heavy cavalry who were eager to make a breakthrough, the spearmen on Luo Chenguang's side, under the guidance of Lin Chong, the instructor of the Forbidden Army, fought steadily, pursuing less killing and more pursuing the ability to entangle the enemy. The square cavalry made it impossible for them to break through the interception of the car formation in a short time.

As long as these enemy cavalry are successfully stopped, the musketeers and even gunners at the rear of the team will quickly kill these enemy cavalry with shells and bullets. At such a close distance, they can almost hit them one by one. , such as those artillery pieces, have been replaced with solid cannonballs. These solid cannonballs rely on their strong penetrating power to penetrate at least two or three enemy cavalry in one shot.

However, these lycanthropic heavy cavalry from the Kingdom of Swadia are indeed powerful in combat. Even when they are blocked by spearmen and lose their speed advantage, they can still use the melee weapons in their hands to fight against Luo in face-to-face hand-to-hand combat. Chen Guang's soldiers caused some casualties.

At this time, Lin Chong happened to see an enemy heavy cavalry who should have the combat power of a powerful warrior. He actually abandoned his mount and jumped directly into the car formation. He was in the air, with big hands in his hands. With a sweep of the sword, he cut off the heads of several spears that were thrust towards him. Then, after falling down, he slashed vertically with the sword in both hands, and connected the head of one of his own melee spearmen with his helmet. They were split in half together.

If such a powerful enemy heavy cavalry was allowed to kill randomly in the car formation, it would definitely cause a lot of casualties to our own soldiers. Therefore, Lin Chong immediately rushed over with his snake spear and fought with this powerful cavalry. The enemy's heavy cavalry exchanged hands.

In addition to Lin Chong, masters such as Li Rufeng, Sun An, and Shi Xiu also attacked one after another, taking the initiative to eliminate the stronger lycanthropic heavy cavalry.

While Lin Chong and the others were fighting fiercely with the enemy masters, hundreds of lycanthropic warriors with the ability to fly quietly approached Luo Chenguang's troops from the air, preparing to launch a surprise attack from the air.

But before they could take action, a black vortex suddenly appeared among them without warning, and then a vampire count wrapped in a black cloak floated out from it like a bat.

"Haha! Suffer death!" The Vampire Count looked at the surprised enemy lycanthrope soldiers and suddenly lifted his cloak, revealing a pair of exquisite black armors under the cloak and a weapon exuding a faint green light. Two-handed sword.

As a faint green sword light flashed, a thin line of blood immediately appeared on the seven or eight lycanthropic warriors beside the vampire count. Then, amid the screams of these lycanthropic warriors, these tiny blood lines The blood lines suddenly exploded, and streams of bright red blood quickly poured out from these wounds, like tired birds returning to their nests, and merged into the two-handed sword in the hands of the vampire count.
