Chapter 255

EP.255

Laura von Wenner lifted the shield from her helmet on her horse and looked around.

In the forest to the right of where the knights are passing, the hidden Imperial infantry reserves are walking carefully, not even breathing, to attack the rear of the enemy infantry.

On the left, the Reich infantry was crushing the dismembered Warsaw soldiers as if they were going to kill every single one of them.

“Reserves! Are there any reserve shifts? If this continues, we will all die!”

“Ugh, you fucking surrender, you bastards! “Why aren’t you accepting my surrender?”

“You crazy imperial pigs!”

In this situation, the Grand Duchy of Warsaw, which had more troops, would naturally have to send out reserves to rest and reorganize the frontline troops for a while.

The reserve unit was only conserving its strength at the back and had no intention of switching with the soldiers at the front.

As for the Imperial Army, we are in a situation where we can only be thankful.

Although she was not as good as Peter Jaeger, Laura had the ability to become a pillar supporting the imperial army in the future, and she was able to guess what the condition of the infantry units in combat was just by looking at them a little.

If the commander of the Grand Duchy of Warsaw’s army had not been incompetent, he would have already ordered the reserve units to be mobilized 30 minutes ago and replace them with the soldiers at the front.

No, unless the thing on your head was bread or pork, you would have to be given an order for a shift change.

So this guess is possible. An order to shift was given, but the division and corps commanders in the reserve unit were caught up in Peter Yeager’s distraction tactics and could not trust other generals or commanders.

Even after receiving instructions from the commander, the generals under him would have protested by saying this.

‘It seems to me that the soldiers on the front lines are not in much danger right now. So let’s wait until the enemy gets more tired.’

If you put a star on it, it’s hard to charge them with defiance by bouncing once or twice and then moving, so they’ve held on until now.

As a result, they missed the optimal situation to deploy the reserve unit...

‘The captain was definitely trying to induce this situation and use splitting tactics on the enemy troops, right?’

Laura realized that even though she had been watching closely for over 10 years, she was not tired of it, but was even now falling in love with Peter Jaeger’s new appearance as a capable commander every day.

And soon enough, she saw a huge amount of dust rising from the other side of her.

“Colonel Benner! Colonel Benner! There are 15,000 enemy knights at the vanguard. “The enemy is coming straight at us. What are you going to do?”

Whether it’s a knight’s charge or a battle between infantry, head-on combat is always at a disadvantage when the number of allies is insufficient.

This is especially true in fights between knights, where everything is decided by a single lance charge, similar to a body slam, unlike infantry soldiers who fight over long periods of time with long spears.

Because of this, Laura was worried about how she could overcome this situation, but just then a cavalry cavalry unit appeared from the side and began to provide cover.

‘Since the archer cavalry joined at the right time, the odds of victory are with our troops as long as they slow down the enemy vanguard a little and disperse the ranks a little.’

“Ensign Milton! Break out of the ranks right now and tell our cavalry archers. “I want you to focus and fire arrows at the enemy vanguard!”

‘As long as we kill the Reich Empire’s knights and send down the infantry, we will become the main players in this battlefield.’

Those who were worried about whether they would be able to return alive just a moment ago, but as they ran on horseback holding lances, their fear disappeared, and the number of imperial knights approaching in front of them was smaller than them.

But “Damn the left!” Reich archers are approaching from the left!”

At those words, the good atmosphere that had been blooming for a moment between the knights was instantly thrown into the gutter.

“Fuck you Reich bastards! Did you have to do it this way to feel relieved?”

“Don’t you think it might be a bit difficult?”

The lieutenant general swore out every swear word he knew at the crazy guy named Peter Yeager and shouted at the knights.

“You can ignore all the flies cackling next to you! No, just ignore it and run! “If you worry about them for no reason, you’ll all die!”

As soon as the order was given, the Reich Empire’s archers, instead of approaching the knights, passed in a line and fired arrows into the sides of Warsaw’s battle horses.

The horses neighed loudly and ran wild, refusing to be controlled, but then suddenly collapsed or broke their legs in place and collapsed.

“Oh shit! “Hey, don’t step on it!”

“Is this something a human bastard would do, stepping on his allies?”

“No, save me!”

“You were wrong to block the road!”

When the horses in front fell, the horses following them naturally stopped running and were soon pushed down by thousands of horses following them.

Those who fell once were equally turned into meat paste and died, regardless of whether they were horses or people.

The lieutenant general commanding them gritted his teeth and felt the urge to cut off the head of Peter Yeager, put him in a salt shaker, and turn him into salted meat.

‘You bastards of the Reich Empire invaded someone else’s land and harassed us who lived peacefully like this...’

If Captain Jaeger had heard this, he would have protested, saying, ‘If I do it, it’s romance, and if someone else does it, it’s adultery.’

The knights of the Reich Empire seemed to have no intention of listening to the lieutenant general’s protest, so they raised their lances and rushed towards the enemies in front of them at high speed.

“Kill at least one more guy!”

“Turn it into fertilizer for the development of the great Reich Empire!”

“Long live the Empire! Long live the Imperial Army!”

In this way, the distance between each other gradually became closer.
