Chapter 1035: The Battle of Poland (2)

"The Poles are about twice as strong as our army, but there are too few armored soldiers, especially the hoplites."

On Lu Yue's side, the weather-faced veteran Yelu Dezhong said so. looked at the Polish army opposite, and there was a trace of contempt in his eyes.

Lu Qi's army had been marching west for such a long time, and he had a clear understanding of the political, social, and military systems of the monotheistic world. The so-called "heavily armed knight" in his mouth can be regarded as the armored iron cavalry of the Qi army. Although the texture of the human armor and horse armor is much inferior to that of the Qi army, the advantages of the heavily armed knights in the world of one god must also be clearly understood.

The latter has been practicing martial arts since childhood, proficient in immediate combat, only a single force, every Western heavy knight is like the son of the Western army general of the Zhao and Song dynasties, and the martial arts will of course be stronger than the armored cavalry born in ordinary soldiers.

However, the Qi army's armored iron cavalry combat valued more discipline than individual martial arts. Unless you can compete with the world's fierce generals such as Lu Junyi and Shi Wengong.

Moreover, even if Lu Junyi and Shi Wengong are such fierce generals, it is really useless when they face Lu Qi's military equipment and iron cavalry like a wall.

"There are quite a lot of infantry, but there are few armored soldiers, and the quality of individual soldiers is even worse." Yerod looked at the array on the other side and said disdainfully.

The sun has not yet risen to the middle, and the Poles have only been arrayed for an hour, but look at their infantry array, what has become of them now?

It's not just the obvious cannon fodder conscripts in front, but also the armored infantry later, and the array is just as spicy-eyed.

If so, this Polish army, which numbered 40,000 people, would be spicy in the eyes of Jerod.

In this joint operation of the three countries, Lu Yu and Lu Yun provided 8,500 soldiers and horses for Lu Yue, and the fully mobilized Wu State also burst out the strength of nearly 15,000 troops, not to mention the conscripts and transport troops left behind.

In this way, there were 23,400 soldiers alone, and a fraction of them were left in the back, and now the number of the Triple Alliance troops outside Krakow is about 20,000.

Lu Yue has the same psychology as Yelude, and he doesn't pay any attention to the Polish army twice as large as himself in front.

And how many Poles? It's just a rabble. Although there were only 20,000 soldiers under his command, most of them were wearing armor. Even those slave soldiers, servant armies, and vassal armies were also clothed in armor, chain mail, and armor, or cotton armor, cloth armor, and the like.

Henrik glanced at his eldest brother Władysław, "Will the Chinese face the battle?" ”

If the opposing coalition forces do not attack and sit back and watch the Poles line up, it will be tantamount to asking the Poles to take the initiative to attack, which is a very unpleasant and unpleasant result.

"If you were the commander on the other side, would you fight?" Władysław asked.

"Of course, of course I'll fight. The Chinese fought all the way to Krakow, and they were the victors on the battlefield. The winner will not refuse the challenge of the loser! Henrik said without hesitation.

"Then I think they'll fight too." Władysław's voice drifted slightly.

In any case, his losses in this war were great. The things that the Chinese did in the rear had already reached his ears.

At this time, in the church, Yelu Dezhong, Xiao Heda and others were listening to Lu Yue's instructions, just like Władysław said, Lu Yue chose to face it without hesitation!

"Why don't you wait a thing or two and look for another opportunity? After another hour or two, the enemy soldiers were exhausted and their morale was declining. Our army will take the opportunity to fight in, and it will be invincible. It's easy to break the enemy! ”

Yelu Zonglei said puzzled. With the quality of the Polish army, if you wait another hour or two, their array will be in chaos.

"Destroy the enemy's front in Zhengrui, so that they are defeated and have nothing to say, and it shows the prestige of our army."

Lu Qi's name is already very big, but no matter how loud his name is, he can't ignore the power of distance. And they are vassal states, in the eyes of the world of one god, they are equivalent to vassals like swords and nobles on the border, China is powerful, but when it comes to the current Lu Yue, how much strength do they have left?

At this time, Lu Yue will teach the Poles, even the Hungarians, the Shinlos, and the entire Europeans a good lesson. Let them all understand that Wu Luomu is not easy to mess with.

A terrible trumpet pierced the heavens and the earth. Władysław, Henrik, and others, who had already dismounted to rest, hurriedly got up and turned on their horses, looking in the direction where the sound came.

I saw not far from the coalition army in the village, a huge Wu character flag hunting and flying in the wind, around the flag is a variety of flags, spread out in the coalition front, a pole flag fluttering, the yellow flag and a black big character reflect each other, far away reveals a formidable slaughter and majesty.

The Chinese are coming!

Seeing this scene, Władysław and other Polish nobles breathed a sigh of relief, but immediately their hearts were raised to their throats again - a crucial battle that was enough to determine the direction of Poland and even Europe's history for hundreds of years will soon begin! If the battle ends in a crushing defeat ...... them, then Chinese have established a firm foothold in the Land of Rus, establishing a solid bridgehead on the edge of the world of the One God. Perhaps in the future, when the Chinese kill again, it will be the fall of the entire Bode Plain and even the French Plain!

When the glory of God is obscured by Chinese, then the whole of Europa will also enter an unimaginable dark age......

The trumpets sounded, and the Poles began to regroup. After the priest finished praying, Władysław said to the nobles around him: "Our long-range projection power is obviously inferior to the Chinese, so we must quickly assault with cavalry forces and settle the battle with the Chinese in close combat." Rather, the longer it drags on, the greater our casualties will be. ”

On the left bank of the Wawel River is a wide, flat field, as is the case throughout Poland. Perfect for cavalry galloping!

The former army of the Poles only used crossbowmen to protect a large number of Signmen troops. These men were peasants, untrained and war-by-war, and were easily disorganized by casualties and enemy intimidation.

The Polish light cavalry on both flanks were the first to charge, and the battle began.

Władysław's plan was to entangle the enemy's cavalry units with a large number of light cavalry, and then put in the main force of elite cavalry, the combat effectiveness of the Chinese should not be underestimated, and it was difficult to defeat the enemy cleanly. He doesn't need to be so 'easy' to defeat the enemy. Władysław's real killer was his infantry, a huge number of infantry.

When the Polish cavalry was in a melee with the enemy, a large group of infantry with absolute superiority in numbers entered the battlefield in unison, which could definitely change everything.
