Main text 3754 Under the sword (XIX)

At dusk, a group of cavalry wearing dark red armor appeared on a wasteland covered with shrubs. Poros, the deputy commander of the Aden Red Dragon Cavalry Regiment, looked at the undulating forest in front of him. Behind him were hundreds of Aden Red Dragons. The cavalry soldiers came out of the forest at the foot of the mountain in a steady stream. The rumble of hooves and footsteps resounded through the foot of the mountain. The soldiers and horses raised a cloud of dust.

"Sir, Sir Luo Fei suggested that everyone take a rest and run twenty miles in two hours. The horses can stand it, but the infantry can't stand it either. Moreover, the attention of the empire is on the southern princes. For our I don’t care if I leave.” A red dragon knight captain wearing armor rode up from behind, looked around and said.

"It's better to be careful and tell Mr. Luo Fei to wait until we have passed this valley." Boros frowned slightly on his thin face. Although the Aden army is not the main target of the imperial people, it shouldn't be like this. He easily allowed himself to evacuate, but everything in front of him was calm, and there was nothing strange at all. "Sir, Lord Luo Fei said that the empire only has 80,000 troops, and it is already a miracle to suppress the 200,000 southern princes' coalition. If you want to divide Send out troops to pursue me We're afraid not. In the battle outside the capital of King Erro, the imperial cavalry was like that. We don't need to scare ourselves at all." The red dragon knight commander hesitated and said, "Okay, I know what I know, and I will execute the order." Poros took a deep breath and said in a decisive cold voice, now is not the time to rest. As long as he has not left fifty miles from the southern princes' coalition camp, he may still be chased and intercepted by the emperor at any time. Being too optimistic will lead to death. Few people

The imperial army is approaching the border. It only requires a preliminary strangulation of scouts, but the soldiers of the southern princes and coalition forces are panicked. It is conceivable that when the empire completely takes the initiative on the battlefield, the next step is to attack across the board.

Although the 80,000 Imperial Army is only half the number of the Southern Allied Forces, but when did the Imperial Army use numbers to measure combat effectiveness?

I didn’t see the Battle of the Holy Capital of the Order State that determined the hegemony of the entire Southern Europe. The total troops invested by the Empire did not exceed 100,000. On the Martin Fang side, there were 200,000 elite cavalry who came all the way north, and 150,000. The infantry group holding the formation at the rear, together with the logistics force, totaled as many as 500,000. It could be said that it was an absolute advantage in terms of military strength. It was also completely overturned by the empire's 100,000-strong army with the help of an inconspicuous small river!

Boros is now a little regretful that he should not have launched the ambush in the capital of Elro. He would have wanted to break the impression that the Imperial Army was always victorious, so that his subordinates would not feel pressured by fighting against the Imperial Army. ! However, I didn't expect that the ambush was so easy that the attitude of the entire army towards the Imperial Army took a 180-degree turn.

I felt a lot of pressure at first, but now I regard the Imperial Team, which has swept the entire Nordic Barrow, as a bunch of chickens and dogs, unable to stand a fight!

"Send the order, the whole army speeds up and rest after crossing the valley in front." Aden ordered the cavalry to gallop in front of the tired-looking Aden soldiers.

"Hell, what's the difference between resting here and resting in the valley? We've been running around all day. Not to mention people, even horses can't stand it." An armored Aden Red Dragon Knight Commander said to him with an unhappy expression. Another knight commander next to him said, running for twenty miles continuously, even if it is an iron fight, You will feel tired, not to mention it is so peaceful along the way. There is a long ravine area ahead, where the earth has formed a mountain-like geographical environment. If you want to cross this valley, I am afraid it will take less than three or four hours. By then, It's already midnight, so everyone should finally rest in the wasteland? Lord Poros's courage is really getting weaker and weaker! "

"There's no point in complaining, just carry out the orders."

Another red dragon knight riding on a war horse said with a wry smile. He held a spear with a circle in his hand. There was a golden flag flying on the top of the spear. The pattern on it was a fire-breathing flying dragon with its wings spread. Under the setting sun, this fluttering military flag looks like it is full of energy. The water vapor in the air was removed, and it was just stuck heavily on the flagpole. The red dragon knights were neatly riding on their horses. Because they were located on a high ground, no one noticed the Aden people below who were entering the valley in front. A black line happened to be Emerging from the slope on the side of the canyon exit,

"It's the emperor!" Someone suddenly shouted in panic, and all the advancing Aden troops stopped.

"People from Aden?" Olled, commander of the Fourth Banner of the Imperial Central Army, stood on his horse, his eyes fell on the densely packed Aden army across the valley, and his pupils tightened unconsciously. He did not expect that his luck would be so good. Everyone predicts that if the Aden people want to run, they will choose the south, which is the shortest distance, and this is also southwest.

The valley suddenly turned into a battlefield where the two armies encountered each other. The encounter was so sudden that neither side had any room to retreat. If you had a pair of eyes in the sky at this moment, you would have seen such a strange scene. This valley is not too narrow. At the two exits of the corridor, the dark red Aden army and the black imperial army were blocked at both ends without any hesitation. It was like two torrents of steel being poured into a furnace at the same time. Sparks were destined to fly!

Tens of thousands of pairs of eyes looked towards the opposite side at this moment. In the silence, the sound of wind blowing across the valley could be heard. Up and down the slope, the two sides stationed their horses and observed each other. While observing the other party nervously, he could clearly see his tanned cheeks and haggard, chapped lips. Neither party spoke. There was a tense atmosphere in the air, and there was a dense crowd of people.

"The entire army is on combat readiness and will immediately report the situation here to His Majesty!"

At the critical moment, Olled drew his saber and shouted an order. The Fourth Flag Regiment of the Central Army is a mixed flag regiment of infantry and cavalry. It has two cavalry squadrons totaling 1,700 cavalry and 17 infantry squadrons, totaling 6,400 people. , and as the foundation of the Empire's Central Army, the Fourth Flag Regiment is one of the few mixed flag regiments with 300 Imperial heavy armored cavalry.

"Asshole, how could we encounter the Imperial Army here!" As for the Aden Army, Boros's face changed. He did not choose the most likely option to evacuate along the southern route, just to avoid the Imperial Army's interception, but he didn't expect it. We encountered the Imperial Army. Since we have encountered it, let’s fight! Poros ordered the Aden army to attack the valley entrance. The small red dots gathered into a line and advanced intensively. The black infantry queues continued to advance into the valley. The red dragon knights wore gorgeous armor and held flags in front. As a guide for our team.

"Stand firm and stay in line!"

"Keep the speed!"

"The front team...slow down...!" The military formation was as majestic as a mountain and as mighty as the sea.

"Ready to shoot" the imperial crossbow shooters raised their arms neatly towards the 45-degree sky, the cold light flickering like starlight

"Heavy armored cavalry forward!" Olled raised his right hand high, and a row of imperial cavalry wearing heavy armor drove out from the queue. They were as cold as cross helmets that did not resemble human beings. Their eyes were cold, "It's the empire's heavy cavalry." Armored Cavalry!" No matter how confident the soldiers of the Red Dragon Cavalry were, they suddenly saw that everyone and their horses were covered in armor. The heavily armored Imperial heavy cavalry also couldn't suppress the commotion. However, when they heard the horn sound from the main army, the commotion quickly subsided. As the Red Dragon Cavalry, they have been indoctrinated into the Holy Spirit since childhood. The belief in fighting for the palace, once the order is given, even if there is a dead end ahead, we will charge without hesitation.

This concept has been deeply imprinted in their blood. Although the feet of their army are shaking, the hands holding the spears are tightening. The low sound of the horns "woo woo" brings a sense of mysterious prayer. Aden The bodies of the hibernates trembled slightly, and the fear in their eyes suddenly disappeared, replaced by burning blood.

"Fire the guns!" In front of the Aden infantry line, densely packed spears were put down neatly. From a distance, they were like a death scythe coming down on them, piercing into their bodies and tearing apart their body armor. This was unique to the imperial crossbow. The Mitsubishi arrow flew a hundred meters from the upwind direction and penetrated deeply into the armor of the Aden soldiers, causing a puff of bright red splash in their bodies.

"Change queue, shoot"

The first team of imperial archers retreated, and the second team moved forward. The archers of the imperial team released their fingers on the triggers, and arrow clusters flew out in an instant. Beautiful arcs continued to draw in the air, covering the sky above the valley. , densely packed like a huge black curtain, the cold light of these arrow clusters quickly expanded in the pupils of the Aden infantry, and then turned into a metal rainstorm

The heavy sound of galloping war horses echoed through the valley walkways at the same moment.

Three hundred Imperial heavy cavalry crashed into the crowd of the Aden army like bulldozers. For a moment, the spears collided with the heavy armored cavalry, and sparks bounced off the heavy armor of the Imperial cavalry. Immediately there were Imperial heavy armored cavalry. They were pushed off their galloping horses, but more heavy armored cavalry just kept their heads down and moved forward desperately. The palms holding the spears had already been wrapped with a thick layer of cloth, just to avoid being hurt by human blood. The stabbing gun flowed until the palm of my hand slipped,

"Papa pa pa"

The sound of weapons breaking through armor, the sound of people groaning and screaming, and the heart-wrenching sound of sharp weapons cutting into flesh and blood, resounded densely throughout the melee battle line, like a huge rolling dragon pouring into the mouth of the canyon. The earth trembles under the rumble of horse hooves

The triangular heavy cavalry attack line was like a huge awl, slamming into the crowd of the Aden army. Blood flew away, people turned on their backs, and their bodies turned into a splatter of terrifying bright red like a collapsed snowdrift.

"Puff puff puff" The sound of the heavy cavalry spear piercing the body and breaking bones, the front points of countless spears shining with cold light, the numb spear tips flashing the red of blood,

The iron flow of the Empire's heavy cavalry carried huge inertia, encountered obstacles in time, and still rolled forward more than twenty meters in one breath, directly smashing the Aden people who were crowded together in front.

After casually throwing the heavy cavalry spear lance that could no longer be used on the ground, the imperial heavy armored cavalry pulled out the heavy imperial sword specially used for slashing from their horses, and slashed at the people around them.

Click! Click! Click! The light of the sword was like streaks of bright lightning, streaking across the armor. Bright red blood shot out from the neck. Blood-red eyes were wide open. He wielded a heavy sword in his hand and slashed wildly. His face was twisted and ferocious, and his armor was stained with blood.

From being broken at one point, to being torn apart from side to side, revealing the red inside

Under the impact of the heavy armored cavalry, this wave of Aden infantry was smashed to pieces and torn to pieces. The heavy cavalry charging into the formation made the people of Aden tremble with fear. This scene fell into the eyes of Poros, with a calm expression on his face. But there is no change at all

The Empire's heavy armored cavalry is indeed powerful, but how effective can only three hundred cavalry be?

Heavy armored cavalry, bulldozers on the battlefield, require considerable consumption every time they impact. They are the heavy hammer at the most critical moment in the war. After a big battle, there are only a handful of heavy cavalry who can charge back and forth three times.

It was quite a mistake for the Imperial Army to press the heavy armored cavalry as soon as they came up. In fact, this happened to show that the Imperial commander on the opposite side had no confidence in stopping him! Want to scare yourself with heavy armored cavalry

"The other side has become timid, so charge forward and overwhelm them!"

Boros raised his hand with a cold look, and the Red Dragon Knight pressed down from the high slope on the other side of the valley. Almost in the blink of an eye, the frontline cavalry of both sides did not retreat or dodge at all, and just tore open the "Kill!" without any tricks.
