Rise In Calradia

Chapter 234: : Nords who are not good at horse warfare

"Nord's cavalry are here, kill them!"

Fatis led the cavalry unit trying to go around the back of the opposing infantry array, and used a neat charge to overwhelm the Nord infantry unit before the other Nord infantry arrived.

But after they launched the charge, they discovered that the battlefield ground behind the mist that obscured the view was full of potholes filled with sewage and moist mud that made the soles of their feet slippery. The heavily-dressed Swadi runner horse's hoof was stuck in the mud and potholes, its speed was severely weakened, and it was left behind by the prairie horses that Byron had bought.

Fatis had to wave a flag to slow down the cavalry. He knew that the cavalry tactics used by Byron would decline severely once the force was dispersed, and he had to reorganize the charge.

But it took Fatis a lot of time to reorganize the cavalry unit. When some cavalry attendants arrived, they even drove their horses all over the mud. It is easy to slip in a puddle with a horse and a man.

The cavalry's raid lost its original effect. The Nords are not fools. Although they admire infantry, they also know how much the heavy cavalry threatens their infantry, except for those royal guards who are simply coming out of biographical stories. Besides, there is basically no solution.

A Nordic cavalry riding a Northland pony immediately joined the battlefield to intercept the cavalry unit led by Fatis. Their horses are short and unsuitable for combat, and their personnel are all Nord warriors who are not accustomed to horse warfare, but on this terrible battlefield, their disadvantages have been made up for.

When Fatis regrouped the cavalry, the Nord cavalry was in front of them, and it was impossible to go around. Fatis could only clamp the lance and led the troops to rush up.

Two completely different cavalry units rushed together in this way. Although the muddy ground and the short distance severely weakened the impact of the heavy cavalry, the densely packed lance wall still directly hit a piece of Nords. The frightened northern horse ran around. Because they do not advocate cavalry combat and frontal impact, the Nords do not wear blindfolds to their horses. They believe that such horses will be more flexible and protect their riders. But judging from the results of this shock, these untrained northern horses caused more trouble after being frightened than Fatis’ cavalry.

The Nord riders were thrown off by their horses, and the injured and frightened pony hindered the advance of the cavalry behind. But the worst was the horses that turned around in fright when they saw the lance on the opposite side. Many Nordic cavalry were knocked over by their own horses.

Because of the distance and the fog, it is difficult for Byron to see how far the battle is going. But when they found the panicked northern horses scurrying around the battlefield, he was still relieved.

"Attack, continue to attack, in the name of the Father, we will surely win!"

The poor performance of the Nord Cavalry made the Cavalry who had failed the charge retry their confidence, and it was time for Fatis to lead several Swadian noble heavy cavalry into the Nord's team packed with horses and landing soldiers. Among them, chanting slogans and lances constantly stabs, the soldiers also responded to his call and rushed into the enemy's queue.

"In the name of Heavenly Father!"

"The name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit!"

"The sky is up!"

"True the highest!"

The beliefs of the soldiers in the Peony Regiment are even more different. If they shout together, it is difficult to respond, and it is easy to cause conflicts. But at this moment, these rivers of faith in different directions gathered into a wave, with strong confidence and courage to the Nord warriors.

"Warriors, don't retreat, the king of the gods is watching us!"

Terrible waves of faith came surging, but they did not drown the fighting spirit of the Nord warriors. Under the leadership of the leader Gal, the riders who landed picked up shields and weapons, used dead horses as cover, and tried to intercept the rampage heavy cavalry.

For this kind of behavior, Fatis has only one sentence to describe: "Courage is commendable..."

Facing the heavy cavalry that split into waves and launched a intensive charge, the formation was broken up, and the Nord warriors, who had only long axes and spears in their hands, naturally couldn't stand it. Their courage in the battle was admirable, and their roar trembling, but after a strong charge and shot down a few heavy cavalry, they were smashed into the formation by the peony cavalry who hit them in batches like waves. After being surrounded and cut into pieces, they were gradually swallowed up.

After successfully defeating this inexperienced Nord cavalry team, Fatis immediately commanded the remaining cavalry to move to the position of the infantry formation where the two sides were stuck in the battle. When the Nord's army formed a regiment in the cavalry battle, they sent additional manpower to support their front-line infantry. Although the Peony Mercenaries and Rodok Spearmen are still fighting hard, if there is no support, it will only be a matter of time before they fail.

Fatis organized the remaining cavalry into four teams and divided them into four waves. Although the queue was not as close as Byron had previously requested, it was still tight. This tactical change stems from the fact that the formation of the infantry in the front has become chaotic, and there is no way to form enough anti-cavalry defense lines. The continuous cavalry charge can directly crush the messy skirmish formations and the Nord reinforcements busy rushing to the front. , To directly support the infantry team caught in the melee.

On the other side, Byron also received a report from the scout cavalry sent out, knowing the plight of his infantry and the victory of the cavalry. He looked back at the Swadia army behind him. At this time, the large army finally took action, but only less than 500 people rushed to the front battlefield, and most of them were Swadia militias and light infantry. The number of them is pitiful, and there are basically no cavalry. In comparison, the support sent by the Nords is much stronger. Not only are there sufficient numbers, but also the number of level 3 troops such as skilled light infantry is very impressive~www.wuxiaspot.com~Byron is thinking whether to use the remaining troops as well. Into the battlefield.

Before he could make a decision, an envoy dressed like a Swadia knight rode through the crowd and came to him, bringing the accountability of His Majesty the King.

"Baron Byron, King Harrods ordered you to attack as a forward. This is a glorious task. How many warriors dream of rushing before the army and showing your majesty's prestige. But you, with half of the troops hiding behind, you Is it to despise this honor, or to despise His Majesty the King?!" the messenger asked.

"Please tell your Majesty the King, warriors need not only courage but also wisdom to defeat the enemy. The main force of the Nords has begun to move towards us. If I attack with my strength, I will only be crushed by the shield wall of the northerners. I need enough reinforcements. In order to break through their defenses." Byron answered truthfully.

"Very well, this is the king's order. The reinforcements have arrived, and the army will launch an offensive soon. Baron Byron, perform your duties and lead your troops to attack, otherwise His Majesty will be punished for cowardice and cowardice. you!"

The messenger left this sentence, and turned away before Byron could answer.
