Lord of Riders
Chapter 286: Rout
Defeating the cavalry led by the Nubian lord, Shao Yu beheaded most of the enemies of the Salander Sultanate directly on the battlefield, but the Nubian lord still fleeed with a team of cronies.
Nubia had long known that it was not the opponent of the elite force of the Shao Ming Kingdom, and did not fight against the opponent at all. The Nubian lord directly handed over the command of the army to a lord, hiding behind himself, watching the situation. If it was wrong, he ran away. So Nubia was spared, but the other lords and soldiers were all beheaded on the battlefield. Even if they were not killed, they were all seriously injured. There is little hope of survival.
The army of the Shao Ming Kingdom marched very quickly. It was very close to the main forces of the Salander Sultanate. Only after ten minutes, Shao Yu led the army to the front of the Salander Sultanate.
Originally, Sultan Hakim was still considering whether to go to war with the Shao Ming Kingdom’s army, but now it seems that there is no choice. After the Iron Army arrived on the battlefield, they directly attacked Salander's army.
The first is that the Kingdom of Shao Ming is almost an iconic crossbow arrow shooting
The rain of crossbow arrows fired by 50,000 cavalry can really cover the sky. These 50,000 crossbow arrows directly covered the army of the Sultanate of Salander. Although the soldiers had prepared in advance, they were facing up. In such a dense arrow rain, casualties are absolutely inevitable.
A round of arrows rained down, and the soldiers of the Salander Sultanate suffered five to six thousand casualties.
Then the soldiers of the Iron Legion put away their crossbows, replaced them with scimitars and hooks, and killed them.
The charge of a group of 50,000 cavalry is quite powerful. In this era without heavy weapons, the charge of heavy cavalry is like the crush of a tank group, and the infantry can't stop them from charging.
Human power simply couldn't stop the horse's full sprint, even if the horse was killed, the remaining impact would still hit them.
"Brothers, the reinforcements are here!" The Kujit Khanate guarding the highlands saw from a distance the troops of the Shao Ming Kingdom who came to rescue them. Although they did not notify them in advance of which country’s reinforcements, they knew this by looking at the situation. The army that attacked the Sultanate of Salander belonged to the Kingdom of Shao Ming.
This is easy to guess. Originally, the Kujit Khanate had only two allies, but now it is only the Kingdom of Swadia that can rush over to support it.
Although the soldiers of the Kujit Khanate were embarrassed by the beating, they immediately became excited when they saw the army of the Shao Ming Kingdom. They saw the hope of victory at that time.
Because the Salander Sultanate was at a loss, the cavalry tried to stop the cavalry charge of the Shao Ming Kingdom, but soon their team was dispersed by the cavalry of the Iron Army.
Shao Yu personally wielded a machete to slash around. The shadow guards and the sword knights around him are undoubtedly the most powerful in the Iron Legion. Following the leadership of Shao Yu, they slaughtered all the way into the hinterland of the Salander Sultanate. Wherever he went, there was a corpse left behind.
The attack of the sword knight was cruel, and a living person was cut in half from the middle.
"Warriors! The friendly army has come to support us, let me kill this high ground! Destroy the enemy and drive them out of our country!" Muren Khan shouted, and the soldiers of the Khergit Khanate responded in a casual manner. Muren Khan killed him.
The Salander army, which was still in an advantageous position, suddenly fell into a passive position. The Kujit Khanate’s return attack has not a big impact on the situation. The Salander Sultanate’s army can handle it, but the Shao Ming Kingdom’s offensive is fierce. Although the Salander Sultanate has some advantages in its military strength, it simply blocks it. Can't help Shao Ming Kingdom's offensive?
Of course, the Salander Sultanate has no military advantage anymore. The Salander Sultanate now has only more than 70,000 people left, and the combined strength of the Kujit Khanate and the Shao Ming Kingdom is about 70,000. When the strength of the two sides is equal, the soldiers of the Sultanate of Salander are far inferior to that of the Shao Ming Kingdom.
The soldiers of the Salander Sultanate may not have inferior or even stronger combat experience than those of the Shao Ming Kingdom, but they have no effect at all in front of the Shao Ming Kingdom’s steel knives and iron armor. The Shao Ming Kingdom’s steel torrents are soon submerged. These shrimp soldiers and crabs from the Sultanate of Salander.
No matter how high the skill is, people are afraid of kitchen knives. People are always flesh and blood. Although there is some armor protection, the steel knives of the Shao Ming Kingdom can easily cut through the armor of the Salander people and cut it down with a single knife. The soldiers of Salander Simply can't hold it. Many were hacked to death on the spot. This is the gap between the two sides, I mean?
In addition, the army of the Shao Ming Kingdom is still a cavalry. The fully armored cavalry is highly mobile and can easily create an advantage in local forces. However, it is more difficult for the infantry to mobilize support. It is said that these soldiers of the Shao Ming Kingdom can turn into infantry and dismount to fight at any time.
The army of the Salander Sultanate was immediately caught in a two-sided attack between the Kujit Khanate and the Shao Ming Kingdom. The Kujit Khanate pushed forward based on the terrain, while the Shao Ming Kingdom massacred them all. The army of the Rand Sultanate began to fail. In just two hours, the Salander Sultanate once again increased the casualties of nearly 30,000 horses.
Sultan Hakim, who wanted to fight to the death, immediately lost his belief in continuing to fight. According to Sultan Hakim’s observations, the soldiers of the Shao Ming Kingdom had no casualties at all. Their plate armor is too protective. If they attack the body part, their plate armor can directly block it. Most of the attacks. Only a small number of cavalrymen of the Iron Army were hacked and killed after their horses fell off their horses, or they were shot in the head and died on the spot. In other cases, there were basically no casualties in the Shao Ming Kingdom, and the corpses on the battlefield were basically soldiers from the Salander Sultanate.
"Send the order, the cavalry unit is responsible for cover, and the whole army retreat as soon as possible! Don't entangle the enemy!"
In just a few hours, the Sultanate of Salander killed 40,000 horses. In addition, more than 50,000 people have been injured or killed before, and it is even close to the loss of 60,000 horses. Sultan Hakim couldn't hold on anymore, and quickly issued an order to retreat in a panic.
The combat power of the Shao Ming Kingdom’s army is really amazing. Sultan Hakim has no doubt that if he fights here for a few hours, all the remaining 40,000 troops under his hand will be accounted for in this place.
The soldiers were horrified by the army of the Shao Ming Kingdom. Now that the king has ordered the retreat, they have directly transformed the retreat into a great escape, and the soldiers have almost disorderly escaped.
And the end of the collapse of morale is definitely a massacre. A more massive massacre has begun.
