Chapter 651

The start of the battle was more than 20 days ahead of pastor Kent's expectation, but it didn't matter. The human army was ready for war.

For the Centaurs in Beidaying, the human coalition has formulated two sets of action plans. If the northern camp centaurs withdraw in batches, the log city will stand still. When the number of Centaur soldiers is reduced from 60000 to about 30000, 200000 elite cavalry will attack on the whole line, wipe it out, and then turn to the southern camp of the centaurs, join forces with the armies of Guangming city and Crystal City, and completely wipe out the main force of Sidon centaurs.

As for the Centaurs who fled back to the tribe's nest in advance, it doesn't matter. Most of their females are pregnant and have little combat effectiveness, and tens of thousands of male centaurs can't turn over any waves. The Eastern Development Leading theater first defeated the Centaurs of the two camps in the South and North, and then summoned the coalition forces in the theater of boulder fortress to go deep into the Sidon Khanate to jointly suppress and kill the defeated soldiers of the Centaurs.

However, the strong of Beiying Centaur sensed the danger from log City, and they decided to retreat to their most familiar territory, where there were golden mature green wheat everywhere. As long as there is food and depth, the Centaurs are fearless.

It is almost impossible for the army of log city to wipe out 60000 centaurs at one time. If they shake it head-on, they will inevitably suffer heavy losses. Under such circumstances, the commander pastor Kent did not take the total annihilation of the opponent as the combat goal, and tried to drive the Centaurs of the North Camp to the South Camp, increasing the food burden of the Centaurs of the South Camp, resulting in chaos and division among different tribes. The human coalition forces broke them one by one like peeling onions.

Pastor Kent presided over the pre war meeting. There was an episode. The queen and the crown prince happened to be in log city. Of course, Queen grace did not need to participate in the war, but crown prince Siegfried had no reason to escape the battle since he ran into the general mobilization. His Highness the paladin clozier made some arrangements for his grandson, and the legendary battle priest agreed. The guards and cavalry brought by the crown prince are elite veterans of the blood wolf castle. They are familiar with the Centaurs. There is no need to worry about their mistakes.

After the battle meeting, the heavy suspension bridge of log city was slowly put down, and the paladin messenger rode on the horned wolf to various castles, barracks and sentries to convey the orders of the commander pastor Kent.

In the early morning, fully armed mobile cavalry poured out of the back doors of various fortifications and circled into the giant wood forest north of log city. In the moonlight, they set off quietly to the East under the cover of the forest.

The log city defense line is more than 200 kilometers long and nearly 30 kilometers deep. More than 100000 cavalry detour in such a large area is not very noticeable. Moreover, the human coalition forces have eliminated the orc entrenched forces in the East frontier. The Sidon centaurs are ignorant of the situation behind the human defense line. The fierce centaurs feel that the danger is imminent, but they come from different tribes. No Centaur leader can make the decision to retreat overnight.

The more dangerous it is, the more we should hold together. Everyone is afraid that if they lead their peers to withdraw first, they will be dealt a devastating blow.

Wild intuition is not omnipotent. In such a battle, the will of powerful individuals will be shackled by group consciousness. Centaur leaders can easily break through, but they must consider the safety and interests of their people.

One night is not enough for the Centaur leader to reach a consensus and decide whether to fight or withdraw.

Of course, they are not doing nothing. Many Centaur scouts enter the giant wood forest to investigate the trend of human troops, but few Centaur scouts can go back alive. They brought the news of the human army in the giant wood forest to the tribal leader. However, the Centaur leaders were helpless or indifferent.

Centaurs are not suitable for fighting in the forest. The vast field is their home. In addition to the forest in the north and the human fortress in the west, the Centaur can also move east or south. If the main force of the human army dares to leave the cover of the forest, the Centaur army will give them a painful defeat.

In this way, 120000 elite cavalry detoured to the east of the Centaur Beidaying, cutting off their retreat to the East.

"... because the Centaur commander of the golden order deliberately avoided the edge of the Golden Knight."

A Paladin with light blond hair and blue eyes smiled and said: "In a battle of this scale, the strong on both sides should try their best to kill the ordinary soldiers of the enemy. The Centaurs are vigorous and more flexible than our heavy cavalry. In fact, the high-level Knights don't kill many centaurs. Their formation spreads out to let the heavy cavalry go deep... Look, they will close the gap and eat those who fight with the Knights Heavy cavalry. "

The situation on the battlefield soon changed. The Centaurs tried their best to avoid knights and alienated war animals, and concentrated their efforts to give priority to shooting the horses of Armored Cavalry. Some ferocious centaurs simply hit the cavalry with refined iron maces, cutting off an armored torrent.

The horses were shot into hedgehogs by dense arrows. The heavy Armored Cavalry fell to the ground and tripped many partners. The cavalry team following the beast assault became thin with the naked eye, and they gradually couldn't catch up with the high-level knights.

Seeing that the heavy cavalry and the war beast knights were about to be separated, Qi Ge frowned, put on his side and asked respectfully, "uncle, how should those heavy Armored Cavalry deal with this situation?"

The paladin sighed and said: "High level knights and dissimilated war beasts must not turn back to protect the backward heavy Armored Cavalry, otherwise they will fall into the ring firing array of centaurs. The Centaur commander mixed with ordinary centaurs and shot with heavy javelin, which is as powerful as a crossbow. Even extraordinary knights can't last long. They must chisel through the Centaur cluster, meet with the main cavalry in the East, and then Return and kill. "

"... heavy Armored Cavalry."

At this point, the paladin paused and continued: "their task is to rush into the center of the Centaur cluster, lay a tortoise armor knife array, build fortifications by themselves, create charging obstacles for the Centaur, stand firm and wait for the cavalry on the East and West wings to rush into the battlefield, and then fight with the Centaur."

At this time, the surviving heavy Armored Cavalry abandoned their mounts one after another and quickly approached their companions in the face of fierce arrows. In a group of more than a dozen, they squatted on the ground with fine iron shields. The shields were buckled together to form a semicircular tortoise shell shield array. The bright long handle machetes stretched out from the gap between the shields. The Centaurs who dared to rush against the tortoise shell knife array would be cut off their limbs by the blade, and even It's a broken stomach.

The tortoise armour sword array invented by the temple army and the Sassanian empire is specially used to restrain the attack of the Centaurs and create an opportunity for the follow-up troops to fight with the Centaurs. However, the tortoise armour sword array can't move. The fierce centaurs will throw maces and kill them one by one. Especially the fierce centaurs above the silver level can shock more than a dozen soldiers to death with one blow. The heavy armor cavalry can How many people survive depends on the assault speed of the main force.

The tortoise shell sword array seems simple, but the soldiers who set up the array need the strength of their companions and the support of the earth to resist the heavy javelin thrown by the Centaur. Almost all Sassanian soldiers can skillfully form the tortoise shell sword array. However, the auxiliary cavalry of the iron wall knights and the Xunlong Knights have been trained for several months, but they are still in a hurry. They either can't get together the number or can't find it in place At that time, the casualties were heavy.

"They are really brave..."

The paladin gave a comment and suddenly gave another "eh".

Qi Ge looked at the paladin's eyes and found that some auxiliary cavalry of the Xunlong cavalry completely gave up the arrangement of the tortoise sword array and rushed directly to the Centaur. They were wearing dark red leather armor and holding two fine iron machetes. They were as agile as apes. They rolled and fought under the belly of the Centaur. The machetes flashed indigo light and quickly stabbed into the back door of the Centaur, bringing blood And intestines. Then, under the cover of the screaming Centaur, they kicked their limbs and turned to the next target.

These soldiers in red armor are like cold and evil ghosts, effectively spreading death and pain on the battlefield, and all centaurs close to them end up miserable.

Ziggy quietly pinched his ass and heard the great Knight responsible for protecting him say, "there can't be hundreds of swift and fierce soldiers in Gambis! They are..."

"The secret guard cultivated by kite castle!"

The paladin looked cold and said, "these secret guards are all over... Gambis didn't send Golden Knights to fight, but they also made a lot of money."

Although the red armour soldiers are fierce and brave, causing local chaos to the Centaur, their number is too thin compared with the Centaur. The frightened Centaur soldiers are afraid of being entangled by these evil spirits. They don't care about hurting their companions. They shoot out like rain with heavy arrows and spears, shooting the red armour soldiers into hedgehogs.

However, the tenacity of the red armour soldier exceeded the limit of human beings. A red armour soldier torn in half by the ferocious Centaur actually took advantage of the carelessness of his opponent and dragged his incomplete upper body to insert the machete in his hand into the ass of the ferocious centaur.

Ziggy saw his scalp numb and murmured, "is this still a man?"

The paladin first closed half his mouth and forcibly explained: "well... I heard that the pharmacist of kite Castle developed a secret medicine that makes people ignore pain and stimulate their potential. The more painful the soldiers who take that secret medicine, the stronger their desire to kill. This medicine... Is still very effective in the battlefield."

The Jedi counterattack of the red armor warriors won time for other cavalry to arrange the tortoise armor knife array. The high-level knights and the Warcraft Knights also chiseled through the Centaur camp, but more than 1000 Warcraft knights could not defeat more than 60000 centaurs at one time. They suffered the damage caused by the tortoise armor knife array. Under the command of the leader, they gathered into a torrent and launched a cluster charge towards the cavalry in the West.

This change caught people by surprise. The main cavalry of log city is in the East, and there are only more than 20000 cavalry in the west, and they are closer to the Centaur. If they are careless, they will be destroyed.

The hammer suddenly becomes a cutting board, and the cutting board can also become a hammer.

More than 20000 cavalry immediately covered the eyes of the horses with cloth towels, turned over and fell to the ground, and then stabbed the horse's ass with a dagger, prompting the horse to run in the direction of the Centaur. The chaotic horses won the soldiers a moment of time. They quickly gathered together and laid a turtle armor knife array.

The main cavalry in the East joined with the warbeast knights, and under the leadership of the Golden Knight, they slowly approached the Centaur army. When the range of the Centaur's bow and arrow covered the tortoise armor knife array in the west, 100000 cavalry in the East sounded the horn of charge.

The tremor of the earth reached Ziggy's feet, and the wave of cavalry pressed tens of thousands of centaurs into a thin belt and pushed it to the south.

"Win... Let's attack?" The eldest son of the emperor clenched the handle of the sword and asked eagerly.

The paladin observed for a moment and said calmly: "Our heavy cavalry lost at least 6000 people, and I'm afraid less than 3000 centaurs died. The strength of both sides is still complete. Centaurs choose to feint at the cavalry on the west side rather than the east side, because they understand the characteristics that human cavalry can't turn once charged, so they use the natural advantage of flexibility and mobility to detour to the south. If they go around the flank of the cavalry and launch a war Counter charge, then the main force of our cavalry will be in danger. Now is not the time to be greedy for merit... "

"When the order goes on, the Rangers of Jumu forest detour to the east to support 20000 Rangers in the East, prevent the Centaurs from charging back and force them to run south!"

"But..." the eldest son of the emperor was unwilling to argue. He didn't even kill a centaur in the battle.

"Zig, driving these centaurs to NANDA camp is the combat goal set by your excellency Kent, not killing them as much as possible." The paladin patted his nephew on the shoulder and said, "they have no supplies. The more centaurs who take refuge in the South Camp, the greater the trouble and the smaller our loss. As the crown prince of the Empire, you should focus on the overall situation, okay?"

Siegfried lowered his head and said, "uncle, I see. I'm ashamed..."

The paladin smiled and said, "the eagle lion Knights of the balelius family have not achieved much merit. They have not killed as many centaurs as the secret dead of Gambis."

"... unfortunately, all the hundreds of fearless soldiers were killed."
