Chapter 199: Knightly Style
Earl Connor was cold all over, and he saw it very clearly.
The explosion caused by the unknown weapon completely destroyed the covered area.
This was not the most fatal. The most fatal was the pressure from above, which had caused chaos in the entire army, and some places even began to retreat.
To put it nicely, this is called retreat. To put it bluntly, this is a rout.
He reacted quickly and immediately ordered: "Let the reserve team go up, and the law enforcement team supervise. Anyone who dares to escape will be killed on the spot."
No matter how bad the situation is, we must hold on. All the troops in the eastern part of the kingdom are gathered here. How can we give up just like that?
And King Bruno can't fool around with repeated defeats.
Even more extreme ideas, even if they die, they must bite off a piece of Rockman's meat, so that they have no spare strength to continue to move westward.
Otherwise, it will not be a problem of the province of St. Peter, but the entire eastern part of the kingdom.
He can't bear this kind of crime.
Enduring the panic, Earl Connor forced himself to command.
But soon he saw a more discouraging scene.
While their soldiers were running away and shells were still falling, the knights of Rockman had already rushed into the battlefield.
These knights ignored the shells overhead, and some were even engulfed in flames and overturned by the air waves.
They still charged in formation and quickly passed through the area covered by the artillery fire.
Fortunately, the artillery fire stopped, but the soldiers of the Holy Cross Kingdom had not yet reacted.
After being bombarded by artillery fire, many people were still confused, and then they saw the fully armed cavalry in front of them again.
Even if they were usually attacked by the Knights, few armies could withstand it, let alone now.
"It's terrible, these northern knights... are they really invincible?"
Count Connor closed his eyes in pain. This was the third time he had fought with Duke Leopold, and each time the opponent became more powerful.
The first time, he took the initiative, and the opponent was completely unexpected, forcing him to retreat.
The second time, it was also a trick, using the weak to defeat the strong, but at that time the northern knights had already shown their style, and their performance on the local battlefield was outstanding.
I thought this was the peak of the Northland Knights, but now that they met again, Earl Connor knew that he had underestimated the other party.
This kind of courage alone was not something his knights could do.
Looking across the country, perhaps some individuals dared to charge like this, but it was absolutely impossible for the entire Knights to charge together.
They could think with their eyes closed that they had just encountered an attack that they had never encountered before, followed by the Knights' cavalry charge, and no army could withstand it.
As expected, the soldiers on the front line were still retreating in panic. The artillery fire from the sky had already caused many people to collapse.
The fleeing soldiers even threw away their weapons and wished they could leave the flaming hell immediately.
It was not easy for the reserve team behind to come up, and the law enforcement team had not raised their butcher knives yet, but Rockman came first.
The front-line officers who had just reorganized their forces stared at the knights who were getting closer and closer.
"Assemble, assemble."
The other knights charged, and they had to assemble and wait for death.
A dense formation can withstand the impact and then wait for death.
The lucky ones survived, and the unlucky ones were directly killed.
This is the common way for infantry to deal with cavalry, using cheap human lives to pile up knights.
Even this cruel method cannot be done at this time.
An officer just grabbed a spear from a soldier and tried to resist the cavalry charge.
However, the cavalry spear was longer than his spear, and it pierced him directly.
Until the whole person was lifted up by the huge impact force, he was still struggling and roaring: "Gather, quickly... Gather."
Unfortunately, not everyone can be as calm as him.
Most soldiers left their backs to the enemy and ended up falling to the street.
The so-called reserve team had just set up a formation, thinking that they could resist with the infantry phalanx.
But the impact of the northern knights was so great that it was beyond imagination. The war horses did not look like war horses, but were simply steel tanks.
The rumbling horse hooves directly passed through the middle of the phalanx, and the bottom was full of blood and flesh.
Individuals are the least valuable at this time, no matter whether you are excellent or not, and no matter whether you are a noble or a civilian.
Under the iron hoof, all beings are equal.
When the first knight rushed out, his body was already covered in blood, and the speed of the warhorse finally slowed down.
Blood dripped down the horse armor little by little onto the ground, and the breath exhaled by the warhorse was like white mist.
The knight threw away the cavalry rifle in his hand, leaving only some pieces of blood and flesh on it.
In front of them was the law enforcement team that had just come up.
It was the first time for these guys with big knives to face the Northland knights at such a close distance.
I have to say, it felt like flying.
They thought they had killed people before and would not be afraid of anything anymore.
But their bodies were flying in the air, and they had to admit that they were afraid now.
The knight tightened the reins again, and these unlucky guys thought their warhorses were unable to continue charging.
But the warhorses of the heavy armored knights have always been the most sophisticated, and there is certainly no problem with a second charge in a short period of time.
So they bumped lightly, and all the guys who tried to chop people with big knives flew away.
As for the result, there were a few more white marks on their bodies, which showed that they also used some strength.
Looking back, it was a chaotic battlefield.
There were still troops ahead, but not many.
Looking around, there are almost enemies all around.
This is because the battlefield is huge and incredibly wide.
What they penetrate is the thickest part of the front.
But the overall situation has been decided, and the next step is the enjoyable pursuit.
At this time, Derek had already seen his knight break through the square formation, which was equivalent to completely breaking the opponent's spine.
The collapse of morale is one thing. Without the support of the Chinese army, the radiation impact on the entire battlefield will be huge.
"Drum roll, after holding back for so many days, it's our turn to attack.
In addition, someone was sent to tell Simon not to play with the other party. "
Derek put down the binoculars, knowing it was over.
At this point, there is no longer a threat to the Northland.
Next... establish a principality and be called a Grand Duke.
The rumbling drums boosted morale, and Beidi Jiaoer, who had been holding back her anger, now came out like a tide.
The officers were all knights from the North, and their pride was unimaginable to others.
They couldn't accept being blocked at the door and beaten, even if it was a strategic necessity.
Now that I have the opportunity, of course I have to beat him back hard.
Some people even ignored military orders and took the lead in charging directly.
Everywhere you can see mid-level and high-level officers like captains rushing to the front, wearing dark armor, like the god of death coming.
The people of Holy Cross, who were already in chaos, were suddenly overwhelmed.
