764 Battle of Staros (3)

On November 6, the 4th year of the Falcon Calendar in Ikadiva, it rained heavily all day and the ground was muddy. It was like God was crying for this day. In the vast southern area of ​​​​Palavon, a great battle was held to determine the situation on the mainland. In the south, a fortress called Staros was deployed. The 200,000 Riedian troops from Palavon were blocked by the Falcon Dynasty's 30,000 troops under the Staros Fortress.

The fierce battle lasted from morning to afternoon, with both sides trying their best. There was a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood under the Star Fortress, and every inch of the fortress wall was covered in blood. With their tenacious will and powerful combat power, the 30,000 Northern Army of the Falcon Dynasty, Under the fierce attack of Ruidian, who was several times his own, he still stood on half of the incomplete city wall of Staros.

The 50,000 main force of the Falcon Dynasty appeared behind the Ruidian army like magic. In less than ten minutes, this was the largest raid at the time, right in front of the Staros Fortress, covered with mud and spread out in the bloody depressions,

The sound of galloping horse hooves was like rolling thunder in the heavy rain. Tens of thousands of the main force of the Falcon Dynasty's central army, which had been waiting for a long time, suddenly attacked from behind the more than 100,000 Ruidian troops who had fallen into a state of exhaustion after half a day of fierce fighting. ∷ ¤The earth is shaking violently , a black iron wall, forced its way into the array of Ruidian people, like a sharp knife, being cut open along a visible incision, revealing the bright red flesh inside, this iron wall In the rapid expansion, it even occupies the entire field of vision!

"Kill" The sword in Hu Keqili's hand suddenly hit the head of a Ruidian soldier. The yellow-white brain mixed with blood exploded from the head of the Ruidian soldier. Behind them, tens of thousands of falcon cavalry rolled around with killing swords and mercilessly attacked the Ruidian soldiers blocking them in front of them. Book m3∴35686688 urged the horses to come over fiercely,

Following the impact of the sharp knives, thousands of falcon light cavalry follow up. The war horses are like thunder, as unstoppable as the iron flow. Countless iron hoof swords will flood the exposed Ruidian soldiers in front like a flood. Overwhelmed and submerged, the war horses passed by, leaving only corpses and remains on the ground.

The group of cavalry rushed in so fast and unstoppable that the more than 100,000 Ruidian rear troops were thrown into chaos. Amidst the screams and exclamations, the first flag regiment that came into contact with the Falcon Cavalry was instantly cut into pieces. Two halves were broken up, and they were dispersed after a while. Then, tens of thousands of Guards cavalry galloped and pounced on the second one. The flag regiment was in a panic. These were troops who had just withdrawn from the siege battle to rest. Exhaustion and fear were still written on their frightened faces. Some of the proud Ridian knights were unwilling to be overwhelmed by the momentum of the Falcon Cavalry. Overwhelmed, he insisted on standing where he was, but was immediately overwhelmed by the torrent of flying swords.

The Falcon Cavalry swept through the right rear wing of the Rendian army like a whirlwind, pulling in more than 60,000 troops who were still resting. They used the high maneuverability of their war horses to move around fiercely among the resting Rendian troops. Sweeping across, the spear formation of the Ruidian people was overwhelmed by the cavalry, and only the snapping sound of spears could be heard everywhere.

The Falcon Cavalry's all-out attack made Ruildian's flag regiments feel threatened from the right wing. The phalanxes that were hastily arranged to resist the cavalry's attack were destroyed one by one in front of the flying hooves of the Falcon Cavalry. The battle-hardened Falcon Cavalry is so good at attacking hastily formed phalanxes. They can break down a formation as easily as a carpenter chopping firewood.

Under the pressure of the strong impact, Ruildian's army of more than 100,000 people began to waver, and the array had to retreat across the board. Behind the cutting edge of thousands of light cavalry was a dense and mixed mix of 40,000 steadily advancing Central Army infantry and crossbowmen. Arranged iron walls,

They are the real main force attacking the more than 100,000 Ruidian troops in front of them!

"Aim, one hundred and fifty meters ahead, cover the projectile!"

Seeing the direction in which the cavalry was sweeping past, the squadron captains standing in the crossbow formation raised their hands. Behind them, 20,000 skilled crossbowmen from the Central Army were arranged in dozens on the edge of the higher ground. row, none

Countless crossbows began to lift upwards with the shouts of the captains and the raised arms. Several huge sniper formations of Vecchia crossbowmen spread out in an orderly manner from the center to both sides, like a The huge and powerful falcon wings spread out their death arms in an almost fully open V-shape towards the more than 100,000 Ruidian troops more than 100 meters away.

"attack!"

Seeing the instruction flag from the legion's main formation fall, almost at the same time, all the crossbow units sounded the same voice

"Collapse!" The sound of 20,000 powerful bowstrings vibrating even shook the entire space. It was a very strange feeling, as if the air was boiling at this moment. If you hadn't experienced it in person, it would be difficult to imagine the number of The feeling of thousands of bowstrings shaking and tearing at the same moment is so shocking. A dense and terrifying black cloud instantly covers the sky.

The metal arrows flashed with a chilling light in the air, and then turned into a howling rain of death. Often the Vecian Falcon Cavalry in front would just sweep past, and the crossbow arrows falling all over the sky would hit many injured Ruidian soldiers who fell to the ground. The top of the head fell, and the Ruidian infantry who were not dead, or who were congratulating themselves on escaping the disaster, were shot alive into hedgehogs full of arrows.

The screams and lamentations of the wounded soldiers often turn into chilling silence at this moment.

Bodies all over the ground were soaked in the rain and slipped into the mud. The bright red human blood dyed the large and small mud pools on the ground the same color. Some died from the impact of the Falcon Cavalry, but more people died from Falcon Legion Crossbow Coverage

"Hold on. If anyone flees, kill them!"

Ridian's knights, wearing red cloaks representing the royal guard knights, waved knight swords full of their own blood in their hands, running between the squadrons, shouting and roaring, chowing with whips, slashing with knives, giving orders, Threatening and driving the scattered deserters back to the queue. It cannot be said that his efforts were ineffective, but the attacking Falcon Cavalry was too fierce and did not give the Ruidian people a chance to steady their steps.

Tens of thousands of falcons fully attacked the right wing of the Ruidian people, and then brought this chaos to the middle of the Ruidian army. Rows of Ruidian infantry were madly charged into the falcon cavalry and trampled on the horseshoes. Under this, only the dense and orderly square formation was spared because of the bypass of the Falcon Cavalry.

"Order the right wing to hold on to the spot. If anyone retreats and flees, kill them! All other troops move closer to the center!"

On a high-lying mound, the second prince Harauskos of Ruedian, who had just ordered the flag regiments to stay on the spot, found that the number of Falcon Cavalry was not large enough to eat up his own number in one fell swoop. It was aimed at the right wing that had just withdrawn from the front line. It should be with the strategy of defeating the right wing and then driving the defeated army to disperse the entire army.
