Chapter 691: Lion VS Golden Phoenix (20)
PS: There are suddenly some things at home, update 2000 words first, and make up for it tomorrow at noon.
"Your Excellency General, the battle record has been counted." On the plains that had been stained red with blood, when the soldiers of the day began to clean up the battlefield, a light spear dragoon riding a speed dragon came to Bobby's side while waiting with what Bobby wanted most now, and said to Bobby while jumping off the speed dragon and handing the information in his hand to Bobby.
"Well, then you go down first, by the way, help me pass the order to my herald, tell him to use the war eagle to inform the commanders of our army, at the latest before dusk to stop the pursuit, although their speed dragon has night vision, but there will always be some situations in the night pursuit, for the sake of safety, the fleeing Divine Light Empire cavalry will not be killed, anyway, now we have more than doubled the number gap between the army and the army, those guys will definitely choose to rest rather than counterattack in the near future."
"Yes! Then I will take my farewell to Your Excellency the General. After the light lancer dragoon left, Bobby also hurriedly opened the information in his hand, and got what he had almost predicted before: according to the number of cavalry retreating from the Holy Light Empire, in addition to the more than 50,000 cathar knights who had evacuated at the beginning of the siege, nearly 20,000 more cathar knights had escaped from the battlefield by relying on the border between the forest and the plains after avoiding the encirclement and interception of the English heavy cavalry and the members of the Field Order.
Although at present, because the sun never sets, the Cuman hussars and light lance dragoons are still chasing the triary knights of the Holy Light Empire, and at the same time using the long-range weapons in their hands to harass the retreating triage knights, resulting in the number of Tribune Apher Knights of the Holy Light Empire who are killed by random arrows on the way is still increasing, but because it is now less than 2 hours away from dusk, and according to the information shown on the intelligence, The vast majority of the pursuing cavalry began to retreat in batches as they ran out of arrows. Until now, the number of cavalry in pursuit of the sun has been sharply reduced to less than 10,000, so the number of personnel who fled from the Holy Light Great Empire shown in the current battle report is basically the number of personnel who fled from the post-war war report, and the number of casualties of the Holy Light Great Empire cavalry army can also be derived from this number of escapes.
"Lost more than half of the combatants! It seems that the cavalry units of the Divine Light Empire have been crippled by us before they have established some meritorious deeds! It's a pity that among the more than 80,000 cavalry killed in the Holy Light Empire, 30,000 are knight attendants of the Holy Light Empire, and 20,000 are reserve members of the Guardian Knights of the Holy Light Empire. After putting the record statistics in his hand into the cuirasse, Bobby first muttered discontentedly, and then laughed at himself: "Hehe, what's not to be satisfied with all such a record?" You must know that in this battle, the combat effectiveness of the Guardian Knights of the Holy Light Great Empire was not even half of their combat power displayed in the case of successive surprise attacks! ”
"Your Excellency, Your Excellency Uda has already met with the Grand Chief of the Centaur Tribe. Now you and a few generals who don't set the sun are not yet there. At that moment, a Cuman warrior on a Cuman horse galloped up to Bobby and said to him.
"Tell them I'm coming, tell them to wait."
At the same time, the junction of the Western Regions of the Central Continent and the Southern Regions of the Central Continent
"Shoot!" In the roar of the centurions on which the sun never sets. Thousands of carefully camouflaged, green-cloaked members of the Longbow Guards shifted from crouching to combat positions, and with their piercing eyes they glanced at the warriors of the Pilgrimage Legion of the Great Empire of Divine Light, who were 200 meters in front of them. Start the mode of territorial suppression immediately. Tilt the armor-piercing arrows at these soldiers of the Great Empire of Light who dare to attack the edge of the Realm on which the sun never sets.
As auxiliary half-heavy and half-light soldiers of the Holy Light Empire, although the members of the Pilgrimage Corps of the Holy Light Empire are equipped with weapons that are better than other second-line troops of the Holy Light Empire, and even these equipment can be compared to the auxiliary cavalry of the Great Empire of the Sun Never Sets in terms of completeness, and the degree of sophistication is second only to the auxiliary cavalry of the Sun Never Sets, but after all, they are cannon fodder troops in the army of the Great Empire of Divine Light, and the equipment equipped with them is stronger than other second-line troops of the Great Empire of Divine Light. It can't change the essence of the cannon fodder troops, and besides, even if the equipment of these pilgrimage regiments is excellent, can they survive the equipment of the great empire? You must know that although the Great Empire of the Road where the sun never sets, it was a poor iron force before the 7th year of the new calendar, but with the creation of steel inlay armor. Which cannon fodder unit of the power can be stronger than the second-line arms of the great empire, and the army system of the great empire is different from other forces, and the second-line troops it is a semi-professional army, which can compete with the regular troops under certain circumstances, that is, the troops of the professional army, in this case, the second-line arms of the sun never sets can be compared with other second-line troops of the powerful force in the century.
To get back to the point, although the pilgrim legion is well-equipped, after all, the shield in their hands is an iron shield, and what they are facing is in terms of long-range lethality, no less than the purple shirt longbow diplomatic armor-piercing arrows in the hands of the crossbowman, so the so-called defensive ability of the pilgrim legion is a layer of paper paste in front of the great empire on which the sun never sets, and this can be seen from the fact that after those armor-piercing arrows fell from the sky, the soldiers of the pilgrim legion all fell together.
However, it is worth mentioning that it is not only the armor-piercing arrows shot by the members of the Sunset Longbow Guards that make the pilgrim soldiers fall with their brushes, except for this kind of trap that was designed to penetrate the plate armor when it was designed and created, in fact, on the path of the Pilgrim Legion, there are also traps designed for everyone present by the dwarf craftsmen who brought Sunset from the Machine Empire, these traps hidden in the forest look like they are completely integrated with the ground from the outside, but if someone really steps on them, For a second, it was either poked into a hornet's nest by countless sharp wooden stakes, or it was directly smashed into a meatloaf by the boulders that followed after it fell into the ground.
However, although from the moment they landed on the beach and entered the forest, the Divine Light Empire encountered strong resistance from the side on which the sun never set, but the Pilgrim Legion did not back down, as for the reason, it was because they had no way out with the upcoming Dwarven Legion behind.
