Rise of the Empire Total War

Facing the unprecedented mysterious weapon such as the matchlock gun, the cavalry of the coalition army felt fear in their hearts. In their eyes, the mysterious long stick held by the enemy could kill several layers of soldiers at a long distance after emitting lightning. Armor protects oneself, which is no better than bows and crossbows. The arrows fired by the latter can be seen and avoided, but the new weapon used by the enemy cannot see what is shot at all.

witchcraft! Only witchcraft can explain all this!

Out of fear of witchcraft, the coalition cavalry ignored the officer's scolding and directly turned their horses back to retreat, allowing Richard's archers and crossbowmen to take the opportunity to retreat into the battle line.

And with the help of the cavalry to disperse, the coalition infantry continued to advance, and a bloody fight was about to begin!

In the name of the Lord, we shall prevail.

Seeing the ferocious enemy getting closer and closer, a soldier in the shield wall of the heavily armored sergeant prayed in a low voice, then kissed the cross in his hand, and put it back in his arms. look.

shooting!

bang bang bang—

After scaring off the enemy cavalry, the arquebus soldiers did not retreat. They still stood in front of the shield wall and fired at the approaching enemy. Due to the large number of enemies, they did not need extra aiming, as long as they aimed roughly in one direction After that, you can shoot, and each shot can take away the life of an enemy.

boom! thump--

The gunshot rang out again, and a lead bullet pierced a small hole in the shield of a running coalition infantry soldier. The sawdust flew horizontally, but the deformed lead bullets did not diminish their power, piercing his chain mail and penetrating into his body. The soldier who was shot ran a few steps forward, then fell to the ground, blood slowly flowing from under him.

After firing the last bullet, the arquebus soldiers quickly put away their weapons, turned around and retreated into the front line, leaving the battlefield to the reliable imperial infantry. In this era, cold weapon warfare is still the mainstream of warfare. After all, the firearms troops owned by Richard can only be used as auxiliary troops. If they want to be the main combat troops, they are likely to be defeated by the natives of this world.

You know, even if the Spanish colonists invaded the Americas, they did not rely on firearms, but mainstream iron weapons. Even the Native Americans who were still in the Bronze Age could not win with firearms, let alone the civilization of this world. There is no difference between the level and the natives of Richard.

The speed of the arquebus soldiers was very fast. When the enemy rushed to a place only ten meters away from the battle line, they all withdrew into the battle line. Immediately afterwards, the shield walls of the heavily armored soldiers quickly closed together. With a roar, the spears were clamped on the shield at the same time, and the iron spearheads that were still shining with cold light were aiming at the enemy from afar!

Charge! Break them down!

Hold it! For the Empire!

Countless slogans sounded one after another, and the coalition forces rushed to the front of Richard's army like an overwhelming wave, like a violent wave crashing into a black embankment. Amid the violent impact of shields, many of the heavy-armored soldiers who resisted the line were killed. Knocked down, knocked over, and then slaughtered by the enemy, but those who stood firm, immediately began the most violent counterattack!

Under the sunshine of the warm spring day, countless spears and daggers stabbed back and forth, the sound of shouts of killing, the sound of weapons striking, the sound of collision of iron armor and solid shield resounded one after another on the entire front, and soldiers fell on the ground every second. Between the battle lines, blood is irrigating this nameless plain.

At the same time, the coalition cavalry who had withdrawn from the battlefield made a comeback again. Under the leadership of their respective generals, they roared towards the flank of Richard's army, uttering the fiercest battle roar. Amid the neighing of the horses, the heavily armored soldiers on the flank quickly Form an anti-cavalry hedgehog circle, crowd together, and block the violent charge of the enemy cavalry with flesh and blood!

Steady! Hold on to shield and spear!

The moment the horses charged, the officers in the hedgehog circle roared loudly with all their might. All the soldiers clutched their shields and spears tightly, and the veterans in the front row even made the determination to die. Each of them knew that under the charge of the enemy's large-scale cavalry,

No one can escape, especially the people in the front row, that is the position that must die.

In the next second, the coalition cavalry rushed towards the hedgehog circle formed by the heavily armored sergeants with shouts. Although the war horse was born with a fear of sharp objects, it still had to bite the bullet and bump under the hard work of its master. go up.

boom!

At this moment, people were turned on their backs, their shields were destroyed, and the heavily armored soldiers standing in the front row died almost instantly. with. Those soldiers who couldn't stand still were trampled to death by the horses on the spot, or couldn't get up when they were stepped on the ground by their comrades-in-arms, but the coalition cavalry also had a hard time. The impact caused many knights to fall off their horses, and were trampled into flesh by the following friendly horses.

After breaking through the defense of the hedgehog circle, the cavalry charged in from the rear fought with the heavily armored sergeant for a while, and then quickly withdrew. In close combat, the spear is still the nemesis of the cavalry, and they can only retreat. Re-array, ready to launch the second round of charge.

When the coalition cavalry withdrew, the entire flank was covered with horrific corpses. Undead horses and people moaned everywhere, and blood flowed.

Both flanks were attacked by coalition cavalry, which made Richard a little overwhelmed. He knew that if he didn't send cavalry support, the battle was likely to be overturned-cavalry charge was not exclusive to him alone, in this flat terrain However, the cavalry on both sides has a lot of room to play, but the number of coalition cavalry far exceeds that of Richard, which is more advantageous.

Frank, the cavalry is dispatched to support the two wings!

After the order was issued, Lieutenant General Frank rode away immediately. Then, more than 3,000 heavy cavalrymen divided into two groups to support the two wings. The cavalry killed.

Charge! For the Empire!

Defeat them! We must win!

During the charge of the heavy cavalry, various slogans came from the mouths of the knights of the two armies, the most unique of which was the Teutonic knights wearing black cross robes. These Teutonic knights were a German knight group formed to fight against heretics. The pagans are very cruel. Their enemy was originally the Lithuanian pagans in Northeast Europe, but now, their target has become the pagans who believe in the phantom deer.

In the name of the Lord, charge! Crush the heretics!

The cavalry of the two armies collided at high speed, and the movement almost shocked the ground. The moment the cavalry crossed, countless knights screamed and fell off their horses, whether it was the German knights under Richard or the cavalry of the Principality of Lasik. Allied cavalry is like this.

If Richard had a detailed understanding of the Duchy of Lasik, which he was about to hostile to before the war, he would be surprised to find that the strength of the knight army of the Duchy of Lasik ranks among the top three in the Vadasia Peninsula. The hometown of knights, most of the army is cavalry fighting...
