Chapter 623 Cavalry Attack

None of the griffins in the sky could escape and fell.

The Royal Knights of the Kingdom of Madeira sent a group of people, more than a hundred tin cans, to the front of the position 500 meters away, followed by three or four hundred escort light cavalry.

They deployed their troops and put pressure on the Wesson army.

Eugene did not let them open fire, but ordered: "The air defense alarm is lifted."

"Cavalry Regiment 3 attack."

He knew very well that Frederick's purpose was to train the troops, and he had to let everyone fight.

Andre, the commander of the 3rd Cavalry Regiment, was one of the second generation of knights who grew up with Frederick. He had performed mediocrely in the previous war. Now Jurgen, who had performed well in the Kingdom of Kush, was promoted to the commander of the 4th Division. He was holding back a strong desire to make some achievements.

"Everyone!" Andre ordered, "Get ready, and start the pre-war self-inspection!"

A cavalry regiment has more than a thousand people, including more than 300 combat personnel.

Together with the logistics personnel, they rushed out of the anti-aircraft camouflage position, removed the camouflage around more than 300 puppet horses, and began the final automatic inspection.

One cavalryman was assisted by two people, one to help prepare weapons and the other to inspect the puppet horses.

Thanks to the load-bearing capacity of the puppet horses, the Wesson Army cavalry can carry different weapons when fighting on solid roads.

After the inspection, the 3rd Cavalry Regiment flew three flags and set off.

One was the flag of the St. Elizabeth Knights of the German Brothers of the Church of Light. In the middle of the golden sun logo of the Church of Light were three Elizabeth potatoes with countless lives.

The second was the red-bottomed golden double-headed eagle flag of Grand Duke Wesson.

The third was the flag of the 3rd Cavalry Regiment, with a yellow tractor on the red flag.

The Madeira Royal Knights saw a cloud of dust rising from the distance of the Wesson Army position, knowing that the enemy's cavalry was coming, and immediately prepared for the battle.

In cavalry battles, because horses have limited endurance, they need to stop at a certain distance after marching to accumulate horsepower and reorganize the formation.

The Madeira Royal Knights had been here for a long time, and their horses had recovered a lot of strength. It stands to reason that the horses of the Wesson cavalry had come from afar and were at a disadvantage.

They were well prepared, with the heavy cavalry leading the way and the light cavalry following behind, intending to launch an attack when the Wesson cavalry stopped to organize their formation.

"Everyone get ready!" The leader of the Knights shouted loudly, "There are no war horses in the Wesson Army. The cavalry that will come out are all packhorses, so there is nothing to be afraid of!"

"Follow me later, we will launch the first..."

"[Madeira swears]! What a monster!"

The knights of the Madeira Royal Knights were panicked for a while, thinking that the war horses with a shoulder height of about 1.5 meters under their crotch were already rare BMWs, but the black horses on the opposite side were estimated to be 1.8 meters tall, and covered with iron armor, and even more deadly, they ran very fast.

The cavalry on horseback were also dressed in black, and people soon saw the big round eyes and long noses on their faces.

They originally did not believe the rumors about the devil army of the Principality of Wessen, and the officer who was captured was just like them, with two hands, two legs, and a [Ding Ding], but he was very good at having sex with women.

But now they kept muttering in their hearts, could it be a real devil?

Andre saw that the other side was ready, so he did not charge hard, but commanded the cavalry regiment to run far to the north.

Now the north wind was blowing, and they had to seize the upwind position.

The Royal Knights of Madeira responded by turning in small steps to avoid being attacked on the flank.

Andre moved in place and ordered the whole regiment to disperse, form a loose formation, and then throw tear gas.

The white smoke was like a wall, very wide and thick, floating towards the cavalry in the south.

The Royal Knights of Madeira did not expect that they had such a trick, thinking it was a trick to block their sight with smoke, and then maneuver to their flank or even attack from behind.

However, the sound of the large group of cavalry running was not blocked by the smoke, so it was basically useless.

They soon realized they were wrong. The smoke was poisonous. After inhaling it, their throats burned and their eyes kept tearing up.

People began to cough violently. The tin cans found that they could hardly wipe away their tears. The war horses were also stimulated and restless.

The Madeira Royal Knights had to rush in the opposite direction of the smoke with tears in their eyes. When they left the smoke and slowed down a little, they found that the cavalry of the Wesson Army ran to the west.

They were immediately shocked and broke into a cold sweat. Their mission was to buy time for the soldiers in the west to gather. Now that the enemy cavalry ran over, the mission failed.

There was no way, they could only make the infantry suffer. Anyway, they could escape into the woods.

The Madeira Royal Knights immediately turned back to the west, but did not move quickly. Instead, they walked and widened the width, trying to sandwich the Wesson Army cavalry between themselves and the woods.

They thought that their own infantry would slow down the opponent's speed. When they launched a flanking attack from the side and rear, the opponent could only hide in the woods. The cavalry in the woods was like meat on the chopping board against the infantry. They could not speed up and could only be slaughtered.

The other end of the communicator behind Andre was the observation post on the mountain. He had almost mastered the entire battlefield situation.

At this time, some infantrymen of the Madeira army had already walked out of the woods, and the small team was lining up at the edge of the woods. The scene was a bit chaotic.

The cavalry regiment led by Andre was like a scraper, holding a standard saber and scraping along the edge of the woods.

Those infantrymen did not expect that the enemy would break through the interception of the Knights. Some lords immediately asked their men to set up a gun formation, and even if they could not stop the enemy, they had to let them bypass it.

However, they soon discovered that these horses were not afraid of lances at all. The lances were broken, and the soldiers were chopped down by sabers. The steel-clad horses and the devil-like enemies rushed straight from north to south without stopping, leaving a road paved with blood and corpses behind them.

The Madeira Royal Knights did not expect that the cavalry of the Wesson Army had such a strong assault force, and the infantry could not resist for a moment. They had to change their tactics, with the light cavalry moving forward to intercept and entangle, and the heavy cavalry pressing from behind, attacking from both sides.

Andre ignored it, controlled his speed, and continued to harvest the infantry that had collapsed in front.

The woods were already in chaos, and the fleeing soldiers kept running in, and the morale of those who had not yet left the woods collapsed, and many people ran around like headless flies.

The light cavalry of the Madeira Royal Knights ran hard and gradually surpassed the 3rd Cavalry Regiment at a distance of dozens of meters.

Some of them were proud of their proficiency in archery and horse riding, and they shot arrows at the Wesson Army cavalry while parallel.

This round of arrow rain did not cause any trouble to the 3rd Cavalry Regiment. Only a few people were unlucky and were injured by boots or armor gaps, and some people's gas mask ventilation tubes were shot through.

Seeing that the time was ripe, Andre immediately ordered: "Horizontal formation, single-shot lance shooting!"

The Wesson Army cavalry began to change their formation to form a horizontal formation, and at the same time put away their sabers, took out short-barreled pea guns that were convenient to use on horseback, and fired volleys at the backs of the light cavalry in front.

These light cavalry had not seen that the Wesson Army cavalry had long-range attack methods, so they relaxed their vigilance and did not take any precautions.

The sudden rain of bullets was like a sickle for cutting wheat. Every time a burst of gunfire sounded, dozens of people fell off their horses.

Andre did not give the enemy too much reaction time. After the light cavalry in front was dealt with, the whole regiment circled out and turned to rush towards the enemy's heavy cavalry.

The heavy cavalry of the Madeira Royal Knights immediately turned and charged at the enemy.

The mission of covering the infantry assembly has been ruined. The escort light cavalry is gone. If the enemy in front of them is not eliminated or at least severely damaged, there will be no explanation when they return.

The iron cans are the elite of the Madeira Kingdom. They quickly organized the formation. The first row of knights held shields and traditional lances, and the second and third rows of knights held blunt weapons such as maces and charged at the Wesson cavalry.

They sang a heavy war song together, and a yellowish light emerged from all of them.

The earth-based protective magic of the Earth God Cult is unique in the world, making the warriors invulnerable to swords and guns, and the heavy cavalry is unstoppable like a mudslide when launching an attack.

However, 14.3, a sacred constant, as long as the attack energy is greater than 14.3 times the energy contained in the volume formed by the depth of the magic shield contact surface and the direction of the attack force, the defense is invalid.

The iron cans didn't care when they saw the first row of the Wesson cavalry took out the "heavy hammer" with an olive-like head, and they were confident in their own defense.

The two sides were fifty meters apart. The Wesson cavalry held the "heavy hammer" under their armpits. After a moment, the "hammer head" flew out with a trail of white smoke, aiming at the iron cans in the first row.

The hammer head flew at an extremely fast speed. Some were knocked off by traditional lances, but most hit the shields in the hands of the iron cans.

A thunderous sound rang out, and the flames formed a piece.

The jet composed of metal and fire elements penetrated everything in front of them like a steel knife inserted into tofu.

Only a few of the iron cans in the first row survived the first shooting, but then there was a more intensive concentrated fire shooting twenty meters away.

The first row of soldiers of the Wesson cavalry used iron fists to shoot and quickly moved sideways to make way for the second row to charge.

The second row of cavalry held a 3.5-meter-long Wesson traditional lance with a circle of cylinders near the lance head.

They stabbed at the neck of the enemy's warhorse. The metal jet shot out of the cylinder was beyond the iron cans' expectations. It pierced the horse's neck and hit the solid armor.

Some tin cans were less injured because of the angle. Even if they fell to the ground, they would raise their weapons and hit the legs of the enemy's horses.

"Ding!"

The sound of metal collision was heard when the weapons hit the horse's legs.

The battle entered the close combat stage.

Revolvers replaced traditional blunt weapons as the main weapon. When facing the enemy, they would empty the bullets first, and then see if they needed to make up for it.

But some tin cans increased their defense because they were rich. Some of them had strong vitality. Some could even launch a counterattack after taking a round of revolvers.

But they could not stop the offensive of the Wesson army.

The battle ended after more than ten minutes. Andre arranged for people to be on guard and ordered some people to collect the spoils, including the flag of the Royal Knights.
