Prince Will is very proud.
He saw with his own eyes that the Duke of Buckingham, along with those royal personal soldiers, was burned to ashes by the red fire of the war angels before him. The greatest fear of his life was gone at that moment - no one could fear him without Legrand, Duke of Buckingham.
The Gruendian heavy cavalry arrived as scheduled, and out of prudence, Prince Will arranged the Gruendian heavy cavalry as the central army to defeat the main force of Legrand's army.
When he arrived at the battlefield, Prince Will saw the bloody king's flag flying in the middle of Legrand's position from a distance - that is where the Legrand monarch is.
Prince Will has full confidence.
Even the cavalry led by the Duke of Buckingham can't compete with monsters like the Gulundian heavy cavalry, let alone a royal cavalry formed by a younger generation at the end of last year? When the heavy cavalry of Gulendi rushed into the opposite Chinese army battlefield to start massacres, and even let the young King Legrand die under the iron hoofs, the rebellion in the north was victorious!
They can even swept all the way down, like a thousand years ago, once again carve up the land belonging to the Qiangwei family.
The Grundian heavy cavalry has launched a charge.
Prince Will also led the main force of the rebel army to the battlefield - he wanted to tear apart the weak left flank of the Legrands, and then merged with the heavy cavalry of Gulendi, completely strangling all the power of Legrand!
The shadow of Legrand's cavalry appeared in front, and the opponent's army was less than one-third of them.
"Kill them!"
Prince Will did not take this flagless, extraordinarily low-key left-wing army in his eyes—generally speaking, those placed on the left and right flanks to hold the line are all secondary troops, and they are the main force of the rebel army.
The desolate horn echoed in the air at the same time as Prince Will ordered.
Their enemy and the huge army of Prince Will gave the order to charge at the same time, and the cavalry, which was far smaller than the rebel army, immediately rushed when the horn sounded.
The wind was blowing from the direction of Legrand's army, and along with the galloping horses, the wind lifted the snow on the ground high into the air. The figures of the cavalry were shrouded in thick fog-like snow smoke, and they couldn't see their specific appearance.
Prince Will suddenly felt that something was wrong—
Ordinary cavalry is not so fast!
As soon as this thought flashed, the distance between the two sides had shrunk sharply, and it was too small to change the order.
At this moment, among the cavalry who came with the snow, hundreds of flags were raised high at the same moment—
The all-colored scarlet flags bloomed brightly on the bottom of the blood.
Hundreds of king flags unfolded at the same moment, as if a blood-colored rage was coming in an instant, with great momentum.
The rebels remember this bloody flag too deeply!
A few days ago, the fallen imperial lion, wrapped in such blood, rushed into their army and launched a wanton slaughter!
"The Duke of Buckingham?!"
Prince Will almost blurted out. At that moment, those blood-colored banners seemed to have turned into ferocious ghosts in his eyes, roaring and biting towards him.
He almost thought that the ecstasy of the previous days was just a dream, that the Duke of Buckingham had made a comeback.
Soon, however, Prince Will came to his senses.
The Duke of Buckingham is dead! People killed by angels will never appear on the battlefield again!
"Not good! It's a hit!"
Prince Will woke up suddenly.
Besides the Duke of Buckingham, there is one more person, a team would use such a flag—
That is the king of Legrand! There is also the rose iron cavalry that the king just formed last year!
They were cheated!
Those bloody king flags erected in front of the army in Legrand's position are just a means to deceive them! The real elite of Legrand was not arranged in the central army at all! The king himself led the rose iron cavalry disguised as a vulnerable left wing, waiting for their attack!
It was too late to wake up.
The armies of both sides had slammed into each other hard.
The armor was strong, the soldiers met, and almost instantly, blood flew high into the sky.
"kill!"
At the front of the Rose Rider was a young knight who roared loudly.
The wind blew through the knight's helmet, and he became a majestic Iron Emperor in icy armor. He was the first to smash through the iron spear of the rebel army, and the sword in his hand quickly cut out curved crescent moons, and the enemy in front of him was mercilessly slit his throat.
The iron emperor-like knight led his army like a raging lion into the rebel front.
A bloody fierce battle broke out in the blink of an eye!
…
On the battlefield, the right front.
"Block! Block!"
The lieutenant growled, sweating.
With his roar, the longbowmen once again drew their bows and began to shoot. The horns echoed through the valley, and a new carnage began again.
Legrand's longbowmen are world-renowned, and they can shoot through chainmail within sixty yards.
The king assigned all the longbowmen in the vanguard this time to the army on the right flank. What they had to do was to use the terrain to stop the light cavalry of the rebel army, so that the light cavalry of the rebel army would not have the opportunity to bypass the battlefield to support Prince Will.
The lieutenant led the army to dig a triple trench on the hillside on the right side of the battlefield, and deeply inserted a root tipped stake into the ground to form a protective line of defense. Finally, the longbowmen were arranged in an echelon on the hillside. from above, firing from top to bottom at the light cavalry who attacked them.
With a dense rain of arrows, the lieutenant managed to reach the first two cavalry charges.
Longbowmen have limited lethality to heavy cavalry, but for light cavalry, they have lethality that cannot be underestimated.
The chainmail of the light cavalry is not as heavy as that of the heavy cavalry, which means that they cannot face arrows as easily as the heavy cavalry. On the other hand, unarmed cavalry horses were often fatally wounded in a rain of arrows.
The horses fell to the ground with arrows, and the rebel knights on the horses fell heavily, followed by the arrow rain and took the life of the fallen knights. In addition, many knights were trampled and died under their own hooves because their horses were injured and went mad. In an instant, the hillside was dyed red.
The first and second charges were carried.
But it didn't end there.
Relying on several times their own strength, the rebels forcibly charged against the rain of arrows. Relying on the sacrifice of human life, many light cavalrymen rushed to the slope occupied by Legrand's right flank and massacred the longbowmen behind the simple bunker.
By this time, there had been many casualties on both sides.
After the second charge was overwhelmed, the rebels retreated briefly to rest.
Seizing this short opportunity, the lieutenant commanded the soldiers to drag the corpses on the ground and nearer slopes to build a new protective wall to stop the enemy's third charge.
This is probably the most terrifying protective wall ever built.
It is made of piles of corpses of comrades and enemies. The blood was still dripping down the corpses, and every head was covered in blood and mud.
The horn sounded loudly again.
The lieutenant took the lead in pulling the bowstring, and he almost broke his voice: "Stop it! Stop it with my life!"
They must resist this charge after another!
At this time, on the battlefield on their left, the Gulundian heavy cavalry had already rushed into the central army.
Facing the top combat power of the knight era, the group of new knights in the central army had no spare power to fight back. Under the leadership of the rose knights at the front, the central army retreated diagonally by fleeing, and sacrificed hundreds of lives every minute and second to drag the footsteps of the Gulundian heavy cavalry to lead away. Grundy heavy cavalry.
After paying so many lives, they will never allow failure!
Their king is now facing the main force of the rebel army on the left wing. Even if they die, they have to resist this group of light cavalry for the king and buy enough time for the king to kill Prince Will!
As long as Prince Will is dead, this war is over! A mercenary without an employer would have no reason to fight, and a rebel army without a main army and a marshal would be crushed!
Therefore, it must be blocked!
"Archery! Archery!"
The lieutenant roared, his hand had been cut by the bowstring with ferocious wounds.
The cavalry charged in the rain of arrows, and the longbowmen drew their bows under the pressure of the galloping horses...
The battlefield has turned into a gigantic mill, and both sides are throwing their lives into the smashing flames at all costs.
…
When the Gulundian heavy cavalry was chasing the retreating central army and slaughtering the knife, the battlefield where the king was also fell into a fierce battle with his life.
It has turned into a huge slaughterhouse.
The corpses are stacked one on top of the other, the living person who just fell is still breathing, and the new corpse has been heavily pressed. The snow has turned into a swampy muddy land, and the bloody water flows like a river. People and war horses are fighting in the bloody river. Both sides were caught in a stalemate.
Human life becomes the least valuable thing at this time.
The madman-like rose cavalry abruptly held back the main force of the rebel army, which was several times his own.
Indeed, the rose cavalry led by the king has just been formed for less than a year, and they are far less than the experienced royal family soldiers led by the Duke of Buckingham before. But at this moment, the Rose Riders were inspired by a frenzy. This fiery passion comes from their king.
-The king gallops at the heart of the fight in armor.
The king came to the battlefield and put his head and all the warriors on the war!
Blood splattered around him, an arrow shot from the opposite side penetrated his shoulder, and he slashed the tail of the arrow with his sword, ignoring his injuries. No one can stop him.
When Prince Will pulled away from the fight and noticed this scene, he couldn't help shivering.
A nightmarish scene from decades ago overlaps with this one.
The young king rode his horse across the mountain of corpses and blood, splitting the entire battlefield, and charged straight towards him. All the soldiers standing between the two were beheaded one by one by the king mercilessly. He was the most terrifying knight on the entire battlefield. When he swung his long sword, the thick blood on the sword turned into a fan-shaped arc and flew out obliquely.
The same silver hair and blue eyes, the same madness.
The arrogant shadow of the Rose family for generations revived on the young king.
He came in blood, unstoppable.
"Archer! Archer!"
Prince Will shuddered.
At that moment, he found that the shadow of the Rose family did not disappear with the fall of the Duke of Buckingham, it shrouded him firmly from beginning to end.
The damn family of lunatics!
Prince Will stepped back while ordering the archers to abandon other targets and shoot the king at the center of the battlefield with all their might. He did not dare to fight forward, but shouted and ordered the surrounding shield knights to gather to protect himself.
Even though he was surrounded by thousands of troops, he didn't have the slightest sense of security.
He could feel that the young king's gaze was always on him, and that icy gaze was like a sharp knife, sticking tightly to his neck, ready to cut off his head at any moment.
The battlefield battle at this time was already extremely bloody.
No one could tell which side had the upper hand, and everyone was fighting fiercely. The archers gathered, but for a while they didn't know how to shoot—there were many warriors of the rebel army around the king. They were stuck together, moving and spinning quickly, and it was difficult to target a single person at all.
"Never mind! Kill him for me!"
Prince Will roared.
The archers received the order, no longer hesitated, and drew their arrows to the war zone that was getting closer and closer.
The iron arrow burst out of the air, and the sound was shrill.
The knights of the rebel army who were fighting to the death to protect Prince Will heard the sound of arrows raining behind them, and subconsciously raised their shields and looked back at the same time-they saw the archers, under the order of Prince Will, even brought them towards him. A shot of himself.
The knights of the rebel army widened their eyes.
Some of them opened their mouths in astonishment and wanted to say something, but an arrow broke through the air and fell into his mouth, directly piercing his skull.
The king was in the very center of the siege of the rebel knights.
At this time, his enemy became the city wall blocking the arrow rain for him. He grabbed a shield and protected most of the arrow rain, and he blocked the rest with his long sword.
The knights of the rebel army, not bothering to besiege the king any longer, scattered.
"His Majesty!"
Three rose knights with shields came galloping through the blood, and they gathered around the king. In the rain of arrows, they protected the king and dashed forward, straight to the center of the rebel army - where the white background of the salamander pattern was fluttering in the wind.
Prince Will is under that banner.
Prince Will realized the king's intention and frantically urged the archers to stop the king's approach.
The remaining rose knights on the battlefield always kept a short distance from the king. At this time, they all gave up their enemies and gathered together at the cost of being slashed a few times by the enemy.
The rose iron cavalry broke out a charge again.
This time, the charge penetrated the battlefield blocking between Prince Will and the king in one breath, and sent the king to Prince Will smoothly.
In the face of the rose iron cavalry that came fully armed, the archers of the rebel army broke out with an unprecedented shooting speed in the face of life and death.
In an instant, arrows rained down.
It was at this moment that the three shield knights roared and rushed forward to form an indestructible shield wall.
They raised their shields in unison, and let the arrows from all sides shoot themselves into hedgehogs, creating the chance for the king to strike the deadly blow.
Covered by three shields, the king broke through the line of defense of the archers and rushed to the banner of the white salamander.
Prince Will saw his enemy clearly at this moment.
There was no emotion in his cold blue eyes.
The young king was surrounded by a murderous team, and he finally killed himself on the mountain of corpses and blood. His armor was splattered with too much blood, showing a dark red color. He was a furious emperor who came here to decapitate his enemies.
Prince Will gave the final command from his throat, shouting for the shieldmen around him to protect him.
The shield players dutifully inserted the giant shield with a height of one person into the ground, trying to erect an iron wall around Prince Will to block the charge.
The warhorse was in front of him in an instant, but the shield players did not meet the expected impact.
At the moment when he rushed to the front of the shield formation, the king let go of the reins and jumped high from the horse's back - this was an equestrian technique used on the grasslands to show off his skills, but now it was used by the king on the battlefield. His figure was sharp and graceful at that moment, as if a goshawk fluttered its wings, and everyone's eyes were chasing his figure subconsciously.
The king held his sword in both hands instead in mid-air.
The long sword was raised high, and the sunlight fell on the blade of the sword, which instantly lit up like a splendid aurora.
Prince Will had a hunch.
"Do not-"
He roared, frantically trying to back away, to hide. But by his side was the shield player who protected him so tightly that he had no way out.
The dazzling light slashed diagonally from mid-air.
A scalding hot blood flew high along with the head.
The Shieldmen couldn't believe their eyes at all - the King of Legrand beheaded Prince Will under their heavy protection!
The king fell from the air panting, half-kneeling on the chariot where Prince Will had been, blood dripping down his somewhat broken helmet.
The shield players stayed on the spot, but the Rose Cavalry was not stunned.
Taking advantage of the time when the enemy was too frightened by the killing of Prince Will, the Rose Cavalry broke through the archer's line of defense. The horses galloped up and violently drove away the shield players around the king. Some shield fighters reacted quickly and fled to the side to avoid them.
The king's warhorse ran along with him.
It stopped beside the king.
The king reached for the reins and rolled back on his horse.
When the king mounts, the knights move forward again. The warhorse galloped, and at the moment when it passed through the central giant, the king held his sword and swung it horizontally.
The white-backed salamander banner snapped.
The author has something to say: [1] The big flag: the flag that marks the central position of the army. The fall of the Great Rabbit means that the army has been defeated.
