When the sky was going to be clear, the sound of the horn had already spread all over roglan's position.
The order had been passed down in advance last night. After hearing the horn, the soldiers quickly reorganized their armor and regrouped in the cold morning fog. The earth was filled with a faint blue fog. In the fog, the soldiers' armor was cold, and the blade of the sword was shining with cold stars.
Near the kava forest, vehicles carrying goods were connected to form a "vehicle array", providing a protection for the bowmen who extended from the left wing of the king's army.
The officers in charge of all parts of the army are in place.
Moore is in the middle of the battle with dismounted knights and infantry. He holds a long gun and looks at the sky. I don't know if the Blaise noble army will really arrive at the battlefield at this time as the king predicted. He didn't know how the king made this judgment, but it was easy for the soldiers to feel tired after too long preparation.
Seeing the thin blue fog on the earth gradually disperse, Moore began to get nervous as he looked at the impatient soldiers around him.
Just as he was about to blow the horn again to alert the soldiers, smoke began to rise on the distant horizon.
"Here it is
Moore cheered up and gave a loud order.
"All ready -"
the sun just appeared on the mountain, the light swept across the sky, and half of the earth was still in the dark. At this time, the holy army of the old nobles of Blaise came as expected.
In the command post, the king listened to the sound of the horn outside. He stood up and reached for his helmet.
"Here they are."
Looking out of the window, the devil suddenly showed a murderous smile.
Hearing this, the king took a look at the direction of Blaise's army. The housekeeper adjusted the size of each joint of the armor for him.
The devil turned to look at him. For a moment, he felt as if time was turning back. They were like thousands of years ago. He is familiar with his Majesty's fully armed appearance. With each part of the armor assembled on the king, his majesty is like a magnificent rose, which is dyed by steel. In the end, there is no softness, no temperature, cold and sharp.
His monarch is a sword enough to cut off the world.
"Then let them come."
The king put on his helmet. He looked up and his voice was cold.
Fierce, dignified, sharp, at this moment, all the green and astringent that had not been taken off because of youth disappeared from the king. Standing here is the king who is invincible on the battlefield and dominates tens of thousands of lives.
"Then let's kill them, your majesty."
The devil laughed happily.
The King opened the door and stepped into the fire.
………………
The army led by the Duke of West is approaching the line of the Legrand.
Most of the troops led by the Duke of West were composed of the original brassie heavy cavalry. For a long time, brescians are proud of their knights. They think they are the most standard knights in the world, and charge is their role in the war.
The difference between the Knights of Blaise and the Knights of other countries is that they use a heavy broadsword. When the Blaise knight with broad sword and shield charged, he was magnificent. There is no word "retreat" in the dictionary of Blaise knights. Because of this, every charge of them is irresistible.
West's plan is to attack rogrand's position before dawn.
Originally, the Duke of West did not intend to launch an attack on the position of Legrand so early. His initial plan was to arrive near the Legrand position, take a short rest and then launch an attack.
Last night, however, a light cavalry from Legrand circled their rear and launched a night attack. The whole back team was in chaos and the noise affected the front team. The news between the front and rear teams was not delivered in time, which caused the front team which was not attacked to be in turmoil. In a muddle, the army began to move forward.
By the time Duke west finally got in touch with the murderous Rudolph, the light cavalry who attacked them had retreated.
This night attack has thrown the camp into chaos. It will take a lot of effort to reorganize the camp. After discussion, the commanders generally believed that since the enemy was afraid of their attack and tried to contain their advance by night attack, they should simply make plans and march all night. Before Legrand regained consciousness from his rest and had time to set up the queue, he raided them.
The Duke of west finally agreed to the plan, seeing that it was more difficult for the control team to stop and relocate than to March.
"Damn it."
However, when the two sides approached and saw that roglan was ready, Duke West's heart sank to the valley.
What surprised him was not only that the soldiers of Legrand had already been lined up and killed, but also that a group of knights slowly stepped up the mountain line on the slope of the opposite camp. They spread out in the cold fog of the early morning with scarlet flags, and in the middle of the knights, surrounded by a young emperor.The Duke of West could only vaguely see the surrounded king, but he felt that the other side was looking down on the battlefield.
In fact, all their plans, which they thought they had made to see through the enemy's reality, were in the other party's calculations.
"What shall we do, Duchess?"
A young man in a priest's robe urged the horse to the Duke of West and asked.
He was an emissary sent by theolde, and played a religious role in the holy army. But before that, he knew that his role in the army would not be welcomed, so he was silent and did not compete with the Duke of West for the command of the army.
It was the first time he had asked West about his plans for the war.
"Attack
The Duke of West gritted his teeth and ordered.
He is a member of his family and knows his own business. The fighting power of the Blaise cavalry lies in that they never retreat and live for the charge. Once they retreat, the order of the whole team will fall into chaos again.
The bronze horn blew, and all the Blaise Knights raised their shields in one hand and their swords in the other. The roars of the Blaise Knights gather together, which is their usual means in the battlefield to intimidate their opponents. However, the opposite camp is quiet.
It's like a roaring waterfall falling into an abyss without any response.
In this different signal, the horses of the Blaise Knights galloped, and they rushed forward with their swords.
The priest looked at the Knights charging and shook his head. He looked up at the young emperor standing still on the hill overlooking the battlefield. The Duke of West could not see the monarch's face and look clearly, but he could see clearly - across the distant battlefield, the other side's eyes accurately fell on him, and the ice blue eyes were like the ancient ice on the snow mountain.
It's horribly sharp.
The minister retreated slowly.
In the middle of the army, surrounded by infantry, there were three carriages.
………………
"Archery! Archery! Let them know that Legrand is not a place for cowards to come! "
The commander yelled in the position, his voice almost hoarse.
"This is our territory! Get these brassies out of here
Every Bowman is doing the same thing, drawing, stringing and shooting. It was the most arrow they ever shot in a war in their lives. The sound of the bows and arrows breaking through the air converged like a rapid but never short whirl. The battlefield was covered with arrows, just like the torrential rain.
There are so many enemies that they can shoot people or horses without aiming at them. The square headed arrows modified by military designers are more lethal than before.
The Duke of West was furious when he saw this at the back of the camp.
The roglans fought their knights with spear infantry. As the cavalry charged forward, the infantry planted their spears on the ground to form a dense forest of guns. What's more insidious is that they dug a long trench before the formation of the infantry, and pulled up the trip rope. When the brassie cavalry rushed, the careless cavalry was tripped by traps and trip ropes, which in turn blocked some of the cavalry coming behind.
When the cavalry were successfully stopped by a regiment of dismounted armour and spear infantry, the longbowmen arranged by Legrand on the flank seized the opportunity to launch a fatal attack.
No wonder the king of Legrand gave up the choice to fight with the same charge. When the rain of arrows fell from both sides, the advantage of quantity was quickly wiped out.
The Duke of West dares to guarantee with his own head that the king of Legrand must have sent all the best bowmen of the whole Legrand here for the current round of killing. One by one, the Knights of Blaise were in front of the position of Legrand. The living and the dead were stacked together. The other side did not retreat. They built a battle wall with the bodies of themselves and the Knights of Blaise.
"Kill those damned longbowmen first!"
the Duke of West roared.
"They made our way!"
Some of the Knights turned around and went to attack the archers on both wings under the terrible rain of arrows.
The chariots arranged by the king played their role at this time. A carriage loaded with stone or wood, extremely heavy. They fell across the slope where the archer was, and the cavalry launched two charges, leaving no more harvest than more bodies on the slope.
The whole grass was dyed dark red.
"Back up! Stand back
Officer Blaise gave a loud order.
Some of the Blaise Knights retreated, and some of the knights who insisted on the principle of "never retreating" continued to charge forward. The retreating people blocked the retreating of the advancing people, and the horses who had been shot by the arrow collided madly in the charging camp. At the same time, most of the infantry of Blaise's army acting as protection on the knight's right flank were poor people who wanted to get rich. They didn't even have complete armor, and they fled in this bloody battlefield.The knight who can't retreat can only use his own sword to cut a bloody road in the chaotic army.
When the first scattered brachy cavalry mingled with the second charging cavalry, the third cavalry arrived again.
The third group of cavalry bypassed the chaotic frontal battlefield and wanted to advance from the side to attack the dismounted Jias of Legrand. And just as they slanted to the side, a left-wing army led by count Puan was spinning towards the middle battlefield, which was about to form a closed encirclement.
"It's terrible."
Looking at the bloody and chaotic battlefield, the priest shook his head helplessly.
He retreated to the three carriages and bowed.
"Our soldiers are brave, but they have no plans. They need help."
The author has something to say: the note missed yesterday
[1] about chivalry in war, here, let me happily nominate the magic Frank (Hello). Let's look at Byzantine emperor Leo VI's evaluation of the Franks in tactics: "the Franks and the Lombards are bold and reckless. Although the Lombards are no longer brave, they still think that even the smallest movement to the rear is a humiliating act, and if you line up really, the other side will fight with you. When their knights were unable to fight on horseback, they would step down and fight back-to-back against the overwhelming number of enemies, instead of choosing to flee... "The medieval army really insisted on" Chivalry "in war, such as frank, who thought it was mean to win by ambush, night attack or surprise attack, The way they attacked until the fourteenth century was the same as that of the Goths "... From beginning to end, they were mainly charged, and each charge would make the order more chaotic than the previous one"
the way they attacked was the same as that of the Goths
