With an order, a thousand heavy cavalry rushed towards the French army with an overwhelming force.
The torrent of steel trampled the earth, and the knights shouted the name of glory. Under the leadership of Char, there was no hesitation or confusion as the world trembled. The sharp and straight knight's spear groaned for blood.
When the French army in charge of escorting saw that Knight Pullen launched a charge regardless of the life and death of the prisoners, they were frightened and retreated hurriedly. The French army in this formation also launched another formation change amidst bursts of rapid and loud horn sounds. No one expected that King Pulun would be so radical, completely ignoring the feelings of his allies and acting only for his own mood.
Although it was a rainy day, the power of the frontal charge of the thousands of cavalry was not affected by the weather at all. No, because it was Char's personal visit to the battle line, it made the Plun knights even more excited. In the past, under the leadership of the Yuexia Knights, they just silently launched charges and completed tasks silently. They were neither anxious nor super emotional. Now they were actually excited. On the back of the rapidly galloping horse, there were roars one after another!
"Our King!! For the glory, for the Royal City of Purun!!"
The French army no longer cares about the life and death of the prisoners, leaving them to kneel on the spot in a daze, waiting for the final result of being trampled into pulp by the Pullen Knights.
King Pullen¡¯s decision not only stunned the English, but even Carroll was stunned for more than a moment.
"That lunatic! Didn't he think that the consequence of doing this would be to break with Great Britain?!" Carol reacted angrily. But he knew that this was not the time to curse. He hurriedly took Qi Man and rushed out of the tent, and immediately ordered all the soldiers to form a tight formation, with the shield hand in front, the sickle hand in the back, and the outer soldiers arrayed in the middle. Immediately, he ordered the soldiers from the headquarters of the Three Lions and Leopard Corps to rush to the front line immediately, bypass the two wings, and complete the charge on the Pullen Knight to form a two-sided attack!
Long shield bearer, this is a very special unit of the Three Lions and Leopard Legion. But it can also be said to be a relatively useless unit.
Not only because of their low combat capabilities, but because this unit exists for "defense" from the moment it was born. The long shield hand holds a huge shield over one meter, and has a short sword at his waist. Although their individual power is very low, when combined together they can be as thick as an earth wall. It is an extremely practical unit for sieges, but it is extremely unsuitable for long-distance raids in the wild. Because of the heavy weight of their shields, their marching speed is extremely slow and their close combat capabilities are very poor.
So they were placed at the forefront, forming a "shield wall" more than two hundred meters long to block the first wave of impact from the Pullen Knights. However, no one would place any hope on this kind of shield wall, and the power of the cavalry charge cannot be stopped by human power. In this world, no, any infantry on any ancient battlefield must rely on geographical advantages if they want to meet the knights' charge! Or man-made location!
When facing the frontal charge of thousands of heavy cavalry on this endless grassland, just listening to the loud moaning sound from the earth, you can understand how powerful the charge of those Pullen knights is.
The sicklemen and peripheral soldiers are actually equivalent to ordinary infantry, but because they are soldiers of the Three Lions and Leopard Legion, they are somewhat different from ordinary people. The most direct characteristic is that they are generally powerful in combat and fight ferociously. However, because of their overly aggressive nature, they generally have high attack power but low defense power. Their combat power is probably equivalent to the hook and sickle of King Purun City.
By the way, three hundred hooks and sickles vs thirty general guards, the knights of the guard won completely.
During the charge, Xia Ya was keenly aware of a hint of cold murderous intent. When he looked up, he saw that two dark troops suddenly appeared on both sides of the French army. They carried long swords on their backs and had iron shields wrapped in iron sheets in their hands. Coupled with their extremely fast movement speed, And the psychological quality that is not timid when facing the charge of heavy armored cavalry.
Xia Ya grinned, that is where the real power of the Three Lions and Leopard Legion lies
"Gun!!" With the help of the system (it feels like I haven't written it for a long time), Xia Ya immediately passed this order to all the knights.
The movements of the Pullen knights have changed. Both Britain and France generally believe that this is when they will put down their knight's spears and prepare for the final sprint.
"Oops!" Artoria, who was just getting started, felt a chill in her heart when she saw this action of the Pullen knights.
"Xia Ya, are you really planning to kill all my compatriots in front of me?" !
"Stop!! King Pu Lun!!"
Barona rode her horse and galloped forward like a gust of wind, hoping to stop King Pulun's crazy behavior.
Merlin, who was standing on the wall, saw this scene and smiled instead of angry. Waves of extremely cunning laughter came from his mouth. It's like he's laughing at something, and it's like he's laughing at something
"Shield! Shield! Shield!!" The French army shield hand blocked the huge shields in front of him, and then his companions behind him continued to add thickness to the shield wall. In terms of speed of action, the Three Lions Leopard Army is completely different from any opponent Charia has ever encountered. From the time of launching the charge to the time for the French army's shield-bearer to build a thick shield wall, it only took less than twelve seconds. Seconds, but within these short twelve seconds. A solid shield wall two hundred meters thick and one meter thick was completed.
The sicklemen and the peripheral soldiers were waiting behind the shield wall. As soon as the Pullen knight broke through the thick shield wall, they would immediately start a bloody fight.
However, the reality was beyond everyone's expectation. The Pullen knights who were charging on the trembling ground suddenly all moved around the French army's wings. While avoiding the prisoners, they also gave up the spears in their hands. On both sides of the horse's crotch, four relatively short and thin spears were placed on each side, with a total length of about one meter. The body of the spear was made of ordinary wood, and the head of the spear was forged of thick iron. While it has lethality, the gun body is also relatively fragile. Once the shot hits a hard object, it is likely to cause the gun body to break directly, while the gun head remains on the hard object.
"Javelin formation!" Xia Ya led five hundred cavalry around to the right side of the French army. He was seen bending his waist, with veins in his right hand bulging and holding a javelin tightly.
Boom! ! The javelin takes off!
With an extremely exaggerated sound of breaking through the air, the grinning Chara fired the javelin directly towards the French camp.
At the landing point of the javelin, there was an extremely dense French army. Because they were afraid of the charging power of the Pullen cavalry, these soldiers basically crowded together as much as possible. In this way, it can effectively block the charging power of the Pullen Knight, and it can also increase the survival rate of himself and his companions. However, this perfect formation at this moment fulfilled Charia's javelin.
I saw a rapidly flying javelin falling straight over the heads of the French army with a burst of spiral airflow!
That javelin attracted the attention of almost all the nearby soldiers. As they raised their heads and looked up, the javelin shot by Char had already reached less than one meter above their heads.
"What is this?" A French soldier locked by a javelin said strangely.
Immediately afterwards, the French soldier was instantly shot through the head with a javelin! Blood and brain matter suddenly sprayed out from the back of his head. The powerful penetration of the javelin continued straight forward after it penetrated the French soldier's head! It wasn't until he shot another French soldier in the thigh that it became stuck in his bones.
The soldier who lost his head fell directly to the ground and died, while the soldier who was shot and lost his thigh was holding his leg and crying bitterly.
This was the first thing Carol saw when he rushed nearby. When he shifted his gaze again and found that all the Pullen knights were in the same posture as before Char fired the javelin, he immediately felt that something was wrong. !
"The shieldmen scatter! Protect the soldiers in the rear, withdraw the shield wall, and form a turtle formation!!" Carol shouted loudly with a hoarse voice. If he guessed correctly, the attack just now was just the beginning of a bloody prelude. The real drama is still about those Pulun knights. With their attack, their own legion is likely to suffer the heaviest losses since its founding!
When the general issued an order and hurriedly urged the soldiers to disperse, it was too late. The God of Death swooped down from the sky and plunged into the shield array!
Whoops! call out! call out! call out!
Five hundred Pullen knights on the right threw their javelins with all their strength, and a black spot of light in the sky brought the invitation document from the God of Death.
Whoops! call out! call out! call out!
Five hundred Pulun knights on the left also attacked at the same time! The left and right sides formed a pincer attack, launching a devastating blow to the infantry in the center!
¡°Pu Chi, Pu Chi,¡± there was a continuous sound of the blade cutting into flesh and blood, and pieces of blood suddenly appeared in the enemy¡¯s legions.
Nearly a thousand soldiers were killed and injured mostly by the javelins fired by the Pullen Knights. The enemy soldiers screamed and howled in pain. As the Pullen Knights launched round after round of javelins, the casualties of the French soldiers were increasing sharply!
All the French soldiers were stunned. They had never encountered such an attack and did not know what a javelin was. Just like before, they did not even know the power of the archer group, or in their cognition I don¡¯t even know what the accurate judgment of javelin and bow and arrow is. They only know that the ones who caused all this tragedy are the demonic Pulun knights in their eyes, and the "wooden sticks" in their hands are simply the weapons of death.Knife! Anyone who comes across it will definitely be killed by the God of Death!
"Second round! Shoot!!" Xia Ya pulled out the second javelin on the left side of the horse and threw it again!
At this time, the Pullen knights behind him and the Pullen knights on the other side also completed this step in unison. Following the javelin thrown by the King of Pullen first, they also threw the javelin in their hands!
There was a neat sound of tearing the air! Thousands of iron-tipped javelins rushed toward the French position with the roar of the wind.
"Wow!"
"ah!!"
¡°My thighs¡my thighs¡I¡thump!¡±
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?Puch, ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?
With the end of the first and second rounds, more than 400 French soldiers have been killed by javelin attacks, and nearly 800 more people have been injured due to various reasons. The Three Lions Leopard Legion began to waver, and the soldiers inside them were almost frightened to the point of fear by the Pullen knights who kept throwing javelins.
The silver and bronze helmets galloping in the heavy rain, the steel horses sitting down and wearing armors, the Knights of Pullen are obviously extremely majestic, but in the eyes of the French, they are more terrifying and feared than the devil.
The maximum number of javelins that each Pullen knight can carry is eight, with four placed on each side. Originally, this attack method was an extension of Char's reference for arming light cavalry, but as the light cavalry javelin soldiers gradually demonstrated his ability Excellent combat performance, he can retreat far away if he misses a hit. If the enemy does not pursue him, he will immediately turn around and harass him with javelins. Charia immediately fell in love with this fighting method.
Under Char's order, all Pullen knights, whether they were the General Guards or the October Knights, were equipped with this extremely practical and cheap javelin.
So, at this moment, the Pullen Knights are enjoying the pleasure of killing, using the "third-rate" weapons in their hands that they have always looked down upon, and began to kill the enemy on a large scale!
Each Pullen knight has eight javelins, and a thousand knights have a total of eight thousand javelins. When the Pullen knights shoot all these javelins! The number of casualties of the Three Lions and Leopards was at least over 10,000! This unprecedented fighting method made Carol so frightened that even Merlin on the city wall almost lost his footing and fell into the city.
"put!!"
"put!!"
The continuous attacks made the French army miserable, and some smart ones knew to run in the direction of the shield bearer! But helpless, sometimes people's wisdom is always so huge. When one thinks of it, there will be a second one, and if there is a second thought, there will be a third one. When the third one is available, then other people, even blind people, can Guess what to do.
For a time, under the threat of Pullen's javelin formation, thousands of French soldiers rolled and crawled towards the protection of the shield bearer. At this time, the long shield bearers who were able to deploy the turtle formation immediately dispersed in all directions and gathered all the soldiers who came to avoid them into the formation, and immediately protected all their compatriots in a tight protective formation!
"Archers!!" At this time, a commander in the French army roared, and more than 300 French archers ran out.
They drew their bows and arrows, stretched them to the bow strings, aimed at the Pullen knights on the left and right sides, and started shooting in turns!
Whoosh!
A feather arrow passed through the rain curtain and hit the running Knight of Pullen straight.
Hearing the crisp sound of boring, the stunned French archers looked at the arrows that were bounced off by the armor, and looked at the Pullen Knight in disbelief, who looked like nothing had happened.
The Pulun knight who was attacked had an angry look on his face, a sinister smile on his fleshy face, and pointed the sixth javelin in his hand at the archers.
"Target! Archer!!"
This roar immediately chilled the hearts of all the French archers. They screamed and fled in all directions. It is definitely not a good thing to be targeted by a monster that cannot be killed or penetrated. Although the officers in charge tried to prevent the spread of the rout by killing and arresting them, the sixth wave of javelins from the Pullen Knights swept across, sending all the already sparse 300 archers to the west.
Blood flowed into rivers, and under the clouds, almost countless French troops fell in the rain.
Misjudgment, misjudgment! Carol, who had never expected that Pullen's heavy armored cavalry could use this move, gritted his teeth in hatred. The two generals behind him were even more stunned. This attack method was the first time the Pullen people had used it since the Pullen Arrow Rain Formation. The miraculous attack method displayed in front of them, and although the area was not large enough compared to the Arrow Rain Formation, the lethality was far greater than the Arrow Rain Formation! The javelin fired from the fast-moving horseback was like a rampaging bull, with huge power!
"Blow the trumpet! The whole army attacks! If this continues, you will only be treated like a monkey by the other party! "Carol roared!
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? !
The horn sounded urgent and shrill, and the French troops howled wildly, raising their swords and shields high to charge the English garrison!
"Compared with those monsters that cannot be killed or penetrated, the Three Lions and Leopards are more interested in massacring English soldiers.
"Attack!! Attack!! Forward!!" The Three Lions and Leopards shouted in waves, and more than 30,000 soldiers rushed towards the English garrison, which had a total of only 9,000!
"More fierce than the charge of Knight Pullen, the vibrations between heaven and earth shook violently like an earthquake as tens of thousands of people stampeded on them!
"Charge the whole army! The Three Lion Guards will follow me, and at the same time send the Leopard Guards to immediately block the Pullen Knights and prevent them from joining together! Separate them for me and snipe them individually!"
The leader of the Three Lions and Leopards, Carol Badron, ordered the loudest. Then he climbed on the white war horse brought by the servant and rushed to the battlefield with more than a hundred cavalry behind him! His target is unbiased, it is the King of Pullen, Drak D. Char, who is still launching the last round of javelin shooting at this moment!
¡°King of Pulun¡ª¡ª!!¡±
Qi Man sits in the military formation and is responsible for unified deployment, while Serena follows Carol to attack the King of Pulun together!
At this moment, Merlin, who was on the city wall, whispered a few instructions to the guards around him.
Then he gave the order: "Blow the trumpet! Attack!!"
Immediately, the British garrison also launched an attack. After they were shocked by the power of the Pullen Knight, they immediately became excited about it. Mighty knight, mighty king! People who are our allies! For the dead souls, for the women and children who were massacred, for the compatriots and the country!
¡°Glory to Great Britain!!!¡± the leader shouted.
¡°The sun never sets on our empire!!!¡±
Nine thousand soldiers roared together. They quickly alternated their legs and launched a charge at the 30,000 French troops!
At this moment, Artoria and the others had already jumped onto the battlefield. While Artoria breathed a sigh of relief, she was also a little aggrieved. If Xia Ya comes here every time, God knows whether he will be struck down by his sword sooner or later.
Then, the melee in the heavy rain finally began
In this battlefield where soldiers versus soldiers, generals versus generals, kings versus kings, there is no trick, only strength versus strength.
Finally, the second battle between the King City of Pulun and the French Empire has come. The King of Pulun, Drak D. Char, will fight to the death with all his fighting power in order to wash away his shame! The surrounding loyal knights are extremely supportive, swearing to defend their king to the death, at the cost of their own lives and souls, and shouting to fight to the last man!
And at the same time
On another battlefield, the United Irish Army finally began to take action. Because the French Empire's invading army in front of them had begun to move forward, forcing them to take action in advance.
The Earth Knight in armor and the Paladin Knight with full concentration are making final plans for the upcoming bloody battle.
Aragon, who was in charge of logistics, was so tired that he vomited blood, but he still actively prepared various material arrangements.
At this moment, the Knight under the Moon is desperately rushing towards the city of London. The reinforcements she leads may not be able to arrive in time. But fortunately, the Psalm Knight is also there. If arranged properly, it may not be completely impossible to catch up.
As for the last force in the British Isles, Scotland.
What decision did they make for the already turbulent British Isles?
¡¡¡¡¡Looking forward to the next chapter¡¡¡¡
