Chapter 918 Joint Operations

In the upper reaches of the western Tunguska River, a cavalry of more than 3,000 people lined up neatly on the steppe, their bodies wrapped in black iron armor, their round flat hats looked a little nondescript, but the dark swords exuded a bloodthirsty and mysterious aura. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoThe cavalry of the Holy Roman Empire had a different tactical discipline than the Slavs. This cavalry was the vanguard of the Germans, and was stationed here to help the Slavs, and was headed by the judicial officer of the cavalry regiment, Dorle. Dolle's expression was grim, his eyes were cold, and he had the rigidity and tenacity of the early Germanic people, "Potten, order the soldiers to charge, these Orientals are very powerful, their infantry formations are rigorous, and they are very skilled in cooperating with each other, those Slavs are not opponents, and after a while, these Slavs will probably give up their horses and jump into the river." While the Slavs are still tossing, we must rush over and wait for the Easterners to solve the Slavs, and we will be under a lot of pressure. ”

The previous victory did not make Dolle have a heart of contempt, the first battle of the Sayan Ridge, the Orientals were defeated, but they retreated in an orderly manner and did not rout, this is not the tactical quality that a rabble has. The Germanic people were inherently rigorous, and even in the twelfth century, the Germanic peoples still possessed this rigorous characteristic, which is unique in the Western world, and a rigorous and meticulous people is destined to continue to dominate the world trend. When the Slavs' fury and physical advantages could not be brought into play, watching the surrounding companions continue to fall, this group of bloodthirsty beasts finally knew what it was to be afraid, and these thin yellow monkeys in front of them were so capable of fighting. When the Slavs were completely scattered, they slammed through the middle like a rainbow sword, and then turned around and scattered the formation, like a wave ferociously crushing the Slavs who had lost their fighting spirit. The development of the war situation is very similar to what Dolle knew, and countless Slavs had nowhere to escape, and fell into the boiling river on their horses. In summer, the Tunguska River is not only turbulent, but also bottomless, especially in the southern part of the Taimel Plateau, where the water is deep and wide, and the Slavs who fall into the water are not so brave, and the arrows fly over, and the river surface is covered with red blood.

Schurrle put on his helmet, only his two eyes were shining, his hand slowly raised, more than three thousand Germanic cavalry shouted, and rushed from the high ground towards the Tunguska River, they were in a tight formation, their speed was the same, and their whole bodies were shrouded in black, like a group of black deaths from the desert. The Germanic people did not roar like the Slavs, but the charge was already a declaration of a cold will. The earth was trembling, the blood was burning, Lin Chong only felt an invisible pressure rushing towards him, he knew that after experiencing the brave and warlike Jurchen Iron Horse, Ding **** once again ushered in a powerful enemy. It was the terrible cavalry that launched a charge at the most critical moment, and when is the most critical time on the battlefield, that is, when the opponent is about to win but there is no victory, it is difficult to choose, and it is difficult for people to make a choice. Jerusha, who was in charge of the front-line command, was even more angry, and he was about to drive this group of Slavic big bears into the river to become kings, but he didn't expect those strange cavalry to come at this time. No matter how unwilling he was, Jerusha had to retreat and reorganize his formation, "Damn, order all the troops to assemble north, and leave these Slavs alone." ”

In this way, because the Germans came too timely, the Slavs were able to escape, and after escaping, many Slavs couldn't help but tremble in their legs and stomachs, and the battle of the Tunguska River made them see the power of the Eastern Empire, and these seemingly thin yellow monkeys were not weak at all in battle. Finally, the two sides collided again in the western half of the Tunguska River, and the Germans adhered to strict tactical discipline, and did not advance at all without breaking through the Iron Float, and the entire formation was maintained very intact, so that the idea of outflanking the two wings of the Cheetah battalion was temporarily frustrated. In the battle with the Iron Float, the Germans saw the power of the heavy cavalry, once the speed was stopped, the advantage was gone, the Iron Float deliberately dragged the Germans, the infantry behind slowly pounced, and when the infantry formation was formed, the Iron Float actually gave an order, left and right, and the wind generally ran backwards.

Dolle obviously felt a hint of something strange, it was obviously the other party who had the advantage, why did the opponent's strongest cavalry flee backwards? Dolle needed time to think about it, but the Germanic cavalry trapped in the battlefield didn't think much about it, they only saw fighting. With a bang, Dolle understood, the other party was not fleeing at all, but to lead the Germanic warriors forward, although I don't know what will happen next, but it will definitely not be a good thing, "Potten, quickly order everyone to withdraw, don't chase, this is a trick of the Orientals!" ”

Pottenn agreed, and he was about to give the order, but the situation in front of him was really out of control, because after the Slavs who had escaped death regrouped, they saw the retreat of the Iron Float cavalry, and they rushed forward with the Germanic warriors, and the formation was completely disrupted by the Slavs. Pottenn suddenly felt the urge to cry, these Slavs are simply a group of pig teammates. Pottenne and Dolle had no choice, as soon as their orders were passed down, they were drowned in the sound of frantic fighting, the combined cavalry of the Germans and Slavs did not catch up with the Iron Float, but collided with the infantry formation of Ding****, nearly two people high heavy shields, impermeable infantry shield arrays, the coalition cavalry was like hitting a copper wall, the speed just raised came to an abrupt end, the cavalry stopped, the shields were slightly separated, and many spears with hooks stretched out from the gaps, dragging the horse's legs and pulling hard, The cavalry in the front row lay down in a hurry. The iron shield was the wall, the hook and sickle spear was once again powerful, and when had the Germans and Slavs ever seen such a strange way of playing, they were helpless for a while.

Dolle's scalp was numb, he found that the Oriental offensive methods on the opposite side were endless, it was simply unguardable, and he always felt that the attack on the Tunguska River was too hasty, and he didn't know anything about the Orientals, so he rashly launched a big war, and now he finally reaped the consequences. At this point, victory was no longer possible, and Dolle rode forward, raised his sword inlaid with blue gems in his hand, and shouted, "Retreat, retreat to the high ground to the west, and do not fight." ”

The Germans and Slavs were cavalry, and if they wanted to retreat at this time, there was no way to set the **** infantry. After encountering a stubborn resistance, the hot head of the cavalry of the rebel army was also poured a basin of cold water, at this time, when they heard the order to retreat, no one ignored it anymore, the coalition army turned the horse's head and wanted to evacuate, but at this time the earth trembled slightly, looking to the west, Dorle's handsome face had become iron and blue, and a steel hero swooped in head-on, the horse's hooves were heavy, and there was no collision, and he already felt the indestructible impact. If anyone dares to underestimate the charge of the heavy cavalry, they will definitely be crushed into a meat pie, and Tiefutu is the kind of top heavy cavalry, their charge even the ancient town cavalry has to retreat by three points, at least for decades, the soldiers and horses who dare to face the Tiefutu to hedge against the Tiefutu have not ended very well. Dolle finally understood why the Eastern cavalry had to take the initiative to retreat, they retreated in order to reopen the distance so as to launch a new round of charge, and the coalition cavalry, reproaching the infantry for dragging it, one rushed up, the other did not rush up, the consequences can be imagined, and the hedging with the heavy cavalry is thankless, not to mention that they did not rush up, "spread out.... Disperse..... Spread out...."

At this time, there is no need for any formation, as long as you can avoid the first round of charges of the Eastern Cavalry, the tighter the formation at this time, the easier it is to be overwhelmed. Dolle's shout was powerless, many coalition cavalry had been frightened by the close Tiefu Tu, and in the blink of an eye, the Tiefutu rushed into the coalition formation, and the black cavalry spear stabbed straight past, bang.... Countless coalition soldiers were directly knocked down by the powerful impact, a Germanic could not dodge, the heavy cavalry spear against the chest directly knocked the iron armor on the chest into a dent, the whole person was pushed into the air, after landing, there was no time to shout, and it was trampled into meat by the subsequent horses' hooves.

Yes..... The screams and neighing of war horses filled the entire battlefield, and death became the main theme under the sky. The light cavalry pounced from behind, and the infantry began to advance slowly, and the coordination of the various departments was seamless and invulnerable, and the previous square infantry formation, I don't know when it became fan-shaped, and the purpose of the **** was very obvious, that is, to use the infantry and cavalry to unite and swallow this incoming enemy in one bite. Dolle suddenly felt a kind of fear, the speed of the Oriental people's formation change was unusually fast, and the coordination of infantry and cavalry was also amazing, such an Oriental people, is it so easy to defeat? For the first time, Dorle became suspicious of King Lothair's plans for an eastward crusade, and was it really worth it for the Holy Empire to travel thousands of miles to provoke a powerful Eastern Empire?

The infantry and cavalry were strangled together, and the coalition forces were already in a tendency to rout. Dolle was no ordinary man, he was the heir to the great Germanic nobles Frederick's family. Frederick's family has a high status among the Germanic peoples, and almost all the dignitaries of the Holy Empire are full of traces of Frederick's family, and the Frederick family has influenced the Germans for hundreds of years, and this powerful influence has been until the 21st century. The Bismarck, which was admired by the Germanic people in later generations, was also supported by the Frederick family, and today, the reason why Lothair II is able to sit on the throne of the king is because of his strong prestige on the one hand, and the support of the Frederick family on the other. If the heir of the Frederick family died on the battlefield of the Eastern Crusade, then the Frederick family would continue to support the great cause of Lothair, the result can be imagined. For his own sake and for the sake of the Frederick family, Lothair II could only order all the remaining cavalry stationed near the Yenisei River to rush to the Tunguska River.

The aristocracy has always influenced the Germanic peoples, not to mention the Frederick family, a powerful family that has become the invisible overlord of the Junker aristocracy for hundreds of years. With the Germanic reinforcement of troops on the Tunguska River, what was originally a tentative attack inevitably turned into a fierce battle, and Lothair increased the troops on the Tunguska River, and Viache could only follow, because the two sides were grasshoppers on a rope, one was prosperous and the other was lost. The follow-up infantry slowly rushed to the Tunguska River, near the evening, near the Tunguska River, it was unbelievable that no less than 100,000 troops on both sides were concentrated, and the coalition reinforcements were more and more, and the disadvantage of the small number of Siberian garrisons was slowly revealed, and the most fierce attack of the western coalition forces was the first to be breached, but at this time the two sides had been strangled together, and the Siberian garrison could not withdraw if they wanted to. There is no fortified city near the Tunguska River, and the opponent has a large number of cavalry, so retreating at this time, the road from the Tunguska River to the city of Tula is long, and the allied cavalry is chasing all the way, then the retreat is likely to turn into a major rout.

Bai Song's soldiers and horses had been killed and wounded, and he was seriously wounded, and when he returned to the temporary camp on the Tunguska River, he knelt on the ground and cried bitterly, "General Lin, you should think of a way, if you continue to fight like this, the brothers can still survive a few times, woo..."

Lin Chong was already upset, and when he heard Bai Song's cry, he raised his eyebrows, raised his foot and kicked Bai Song's chest, "Bai Song, if you are still a man, give Ben will stand up and speak, command the envoy in a dignified manner, kneel on the ground and cry bitterly, what kind of system." Do you know the retreat, but will you not know the retreat? But don't you see that those black cavalry have been standing still in the east, and the other side is waiting for us to retreat, as soon as we retreat, this group of cavalry will pounce on them like mad dogs, and what will we use to resist when the time comes? ”

Lin Chong didn't have any way, what he could do was to do everything possible to resist and not let this war turn into a big rout, I hope that the people of the Mongolian Hongji tribe can come quickly, as long as the Mongolian cavalry arrives, let the two sides temporarily truce. Lin Chong did not expect to be able to defeat this group of coalition forces, and with the Mongols in time, it was still impossible to defeat this group of Western barbarians at once.

Knock knock, the rough war drums sounded, Lin Chong looked from afar, only to see a group of strangely dressed Siberians appear in the west, they took over Bai Song's defense line, and fought desperately with the coalition army. It turned out that Yelena, who stayed in Tula City, led the people to arrive, but Yelena did not have many soldiers, so how long could she hold out? By this time, everyone understood that if the Siberian garrison was defeated in the battle of the Tunguska, then the cities of Tula, Siberia and Phoenix behind them would also be lost, and without the fortified cities, large areas of eastern Siberia would also be taken away by the Western barbarians. So, instead of staying in the city of Tula, Elena came to the Tunguska River to contribute her part. (To be continued.) )
