Rise of the Empire Total War

Establish the shield! Raise the spear!

After the crossbow militiamen withdrew into the first line of defense, the heavily armored sergeants who had just experienced the cavalry charge resumed their original formation. The shield stood obliquely on the ground, and the whole person bowed and hid behind the shield. The two-meter-long spear was placed in the gap between the shields and pointed at the charging enemy!

Charge! For the king!

boom!

Like a variegated torrent crashing into a black dam, a large number of Ramirez infantry crashed straight into the line of defense composed of heavily armored soldiers, making a deafening sound as if the whole earth trembled!

Just at the moment of contact, the heavy armored soldiers in the first row were almost knocked to the ground, but the all-out push of the comrades behind them saved them from the danger of being knocked down. These are the backbone of the Holy Roman Empire Gritting your teeth, you put on a large kite-shaped shield to resist the impact from the enemy.

The charge of the Ramirez made the entire formation retreat a few steps, but they also paid a heavy price. The spears of the heavily armored soldiers directly pierced into the body of the enemy who hit the line of defense, and then quickly pulled out. The latter After screaming in pain, he knelt down and clutched his wound, losing the ability to fight. The Ramirez soldiers in the front row died under the spears one after another, but they who were also equipped with spears had no chance to use their weapons at all, because the constant pushing from the comrades in the back made them only helplessly move toward the enemy. The blood-stained spear tip slammed into it.

puff!

Immediately, the freckled young soldier in heavy armor stabbed the spear into an enemy's chest, but his spear was caught by the enemy's breastbone, and he couldn't pull it out no matter how hard he tried. At this moment, a spear stabbed diagonally across him, and he felt a black shadow approaching in front of him. Before he could react, the sharp spear point actually pierced through his face, and the spear point appeared from the back of his head. At first glance, there is still sticky brain tissue attached to it...

Fight them off! For the kingdom!

Fierce battles broke out not only in the central army, but also in the two wings of the Ravana Kingdom Army. The quality of the soldiers on the two wings could not be compared with the heavily armored sergeants in the central army, so it was not easy for them to fight. From time to time, soldiers would scream and fall to the ground, letting the blood spurt out from the wound, and then be absorbed by the plants on the ground—if nothing happened, the plants would grow very well in the next few years in this place where the war broke out.

what--

After killing an enemy who intended to attack him, Baron Strand wiped away the warm blood splashed on his face, and looked around. The Ramirez's attack caused the conscripts he brought and the troops of other barons to fall into a bitter battle. .

Among the troops brought by the barons of the same level as him, only the three or five knights and their cavalry servants and a dozen or so militiamen equipped with light armor are still capable of fighting, and the rest can only be regarded as powerful at best. farmers and soldiers.

However, those knights with horses were transferred by Richard and unified into the cavalry brigade, leaving only some weak chickens. Therefore, the left wing of the Ravana people was the weakest in resistance, and they also retreated steadily under the attack of the Ramirez people.

Don't retreat! Don't retreat! For the kingdom! Hold on!

Baron Strand let out a loud roar, and then continued to fight against the enemy. In order to stabilize the line of defense, these barons took the lead and went to the battlefield. If they were not suppressed by their prestige, I am afraid that the left wing would not only retreat steadily, but the whole front would be defeated. Rout!

Richard looked at the disadvantaged left wing and sighed slightly. The heavily armored sergeants of the central army performed very well. Even after experiencing the devastation of Ramirez's heavy cavalry charge, they still withstood the enemy's infantry attack, and even had a faint drive to overwhelm them. Although the performance of the right wing was not as good as that of the central army's system troops, it was still quite satisfactory. Under the command of Mabuku's military commander, Copperfield, Mabuku's army was like a chopping block sticking to Ramirez's army. , making it impossible to escape to support others.

But the left wing...Richard witnessed with his own eyes a baron who was fighting tenaciously was surrounded by the enemy, and finally died under the chaos of swords. The escape of people led to the escape of more people. For a time, the entire left wing almost collapsed, except for those nobles who were determined (they dared not escape, because the honor of the nobles forced them to fight to the last moment, unless there were other nobles Take the lead in surrendering) and some soldiers are still choosing to fight, and the peasants and soldiers who are equivalent to cannon fodder all flee with their heads in their arms and flee in all directions.

The collapse of the left wing was beyond Richard's expectation. He was surprised and quickly ordered the foot feudal knights who were originally deployed on the left wing as a reserve to press on. 450 fully armed steel knights immediately raised their shields, raised their swords and joined the corrupted battlefield. These elite knights who had no horses and chose to fight on foot did not disappoint Richard. Before the soldiers had time to cheer, the Ramirez soldiers were beaten up and screamed and fucked.

After the feudal knights on foot joined the battlefield, the situation on the left wing reversed instantly, and the status of both sides changed drastically. The sharp long sword set off a rain of blood among the crowd.

Woo--

Just as the left wing gradually launched a counterattack, the dull horn sounded again from the Ramirez army formation. As the horn continued to extend, the Ramirez soldiers gave up fighting the enemy in front of them and receded like a tide. Only the corpses and those wounded who did not die on the spot and were still moaning in pain were left behind.

Hoo...hoo...

Did we... win?

On the battlefield, there was silence. Every soldier was watching the backs of the Ramirez people retreating, but none of them made any stupid moves of chasing them. They just stood there panting, feeling the joy of being alive after the war.

After about ten seconds of silence, cheers erupted over the defense line of the entire Kingdom of Ravana, whether it was the Holy Roman Empire army that accompanied Richard from Cuban Island or the conscripts from all over the Kingdom of Ravana. They all cheered loudly, celebrating their lucky survival in this tragic war.

In the sea of ​​cheers, Richard's face did not reveal the slightest joy. This was just a small warm-up before the big battle. Ramirez didn't even use his full strength at all. Besides, the enemy's commander must have seen the weakness of his wings.

The next battle will probably be the real war.
