Why did Henry choose to attack at night? Because the effect of night on people will indirectly change the entire battle situation.

In the medieval era, in addition to some alien races born with special characteristics, including humans, dwarves, elves, orcs, etc., they all suffered from a disease that was not considered a disease, that is, night blindness.

You must know that there is no high technology in this era, and the medical level is extremely low, so there is no so-called medicine that can treat night blindness, and there is no so-called night life in most areas, and even most of the food people eat is mainly hungry, and there is no so-called intake of the concept of golden ratio nutrition, in this case, ordinary people will not get night blindness, which can only show that these people's genes are absolutely too good.

Although the Sun Never Sets Empire advocates the use of dietary therapy in the army, so that soldiers can consume enough food with vitamin A, but the effect is not obvious, so far about 1 out of 5 soldiers in the army of the Sun Never Set Empire suffer from night blindness, and at present, nearly 1,000 of the 3,000 griffin knights in the Sun Never Set Cavalry Regiment suffer from night blindness.

In this case, coupled with the fact that the Sky Cavalry is unable to use torches at high altitudes (not because the torches burn the bearer while moving, but because the Griffin Knights can easily extinguish the torches when moving quickly), Henry's choice of night attack is a bit of a stretch, as the Griffin Knights, whose formation becomes chaotic after the start of the battle, are prone to collisions in the air. However, since Henley chose this way, there must be a reason for his choice, and this reason is - the royal griffin has night vision.

This is the conclusion reached after many tests by the griffin trainers of the Great Empire on the New Delhi Peninsula, in addition to the fact that the royal griffin mutated into an ordinary griffin due to the intervention of the system also has a strong ability to adapt to the environment, etc., with the night vision of the griffins, the griffin riders who never set the sun are like having an automatic navigation system at night, and they do not have to worry about accidents when using dive combat at night or when flying in the sky.

On the contrary, the horses of the King Continent and those Cumans from the Sivian steppe do not have the so-called night vision, although they can fight with torches in their hands at night, but even if there are many faint fires, as long as they are scattered and the size of the flames is not large, no matter how strong the riding and archery ability is to find the target of the Cuman black iron archers, how can they find those griffon knights flying at an altitude of 500 meters? Not to mention that those torches will not only not help these black iron archers, but will also make them the first target of the griffin knights who never set the sun.

"Attack! Burn these Cumans in asphalt clay pots! Let them know that there is no good end to going against the great empire on which the sun never sets! At the command of the commander of the Armies of Anli and the roar of the griffins, 3,000 griffon knights swooped down from the sky following the tried and tested tactics of the old and tried and tested tactics, and threw the lit pitch clay pots at the Cuman Black Iron Horsemen who marched at night. Even some of the most daring griffin knights actually let their griffins glide forward smoothly at a low altitude of about 100 meters, smashing the asphalt clay pots that were remembered on the griffin's body and the storage behind them one by one, quite a rudimentary form of carpet bombing. Although this would increase the mortality rate of the griffin knights to the maximum, the results were also impressive, as the Cumans' black-iron archers had not yet recovered from their panic.

"These shameless people the sun never sets! It's no wonder that Sunset Valley and New Mochizuki Fort were captured so quickly, and this kind of air cavalry unit that specializes in dealing with the army is simply not something that the army can handle. "Looking at the brave and good Cuman warriors beside him, who did not die on the battlefield against the Sunset, but died in the night attack of the Sunset, Lisa, as the leader of the team, is now heartbroken.

I thought that the 5,000 black iron archers who were originally hidden in the rear would be combined, and with the help of the night, with the help of a scattered formation, they would hide it in the open around the 5,000 black iron archers to calculate that the sun would never set, but I never thought that the royal griffin had more night vision than ordinary griffons, so that now my side not only lost 5,000 black iron archers on the bright side, but also lost the black iron archers who were hidden around the troops before. However, there is no regret medicine in this world, so Lord Lisa also knows that this is not the time to think about it anymore, and how to save the 10,000 Black Iron Archer from danger is the most critical thing now.

Perhaps it was the sound of panicked horses' hooves drowning out all the battlefields that gave Lord Lisa an idea, and he himself immediately discovered that in fact, the number of cavalry troops attacking his side at night was not very large, not even less than half of his own troops. Although the Black Iron Archers were heavy archers and were equipped with armor that was almost the same level as the heavy cavalry, the archers were archers, and they could never unleash an unstoppable charge like the heavy cavalry, and the same archers would definitely move much faster than the heavy cavalry.

At the same time, Lord Lisa also thought of a common sense of all ranged troops, that is, in field battles, no matter how high your weight is, the arrows, javelins, etc. used will inevitably run out: "The panicked and crowded formation will only increase the casualties of the soldiers, and you must pull the team apart and wait for the opponent's ammunition to run out." If the sun never sets, the air cavalry of the Great Empire really wants to destroy us, then they will definitely land and fight our cavalry hand-to-hand, and then we will be able to test the superiority in numbers and counterattack. With this in mind, Lord Lisa immediately ordered his troops with a horn to keep all the Black Iron Archers as far apart as possible, and if they could, cast a ring firing formation.

"Commander of the Angli Legion, those Cumans have reacted back, they are now trying their best to distance the distance between the soldiers, and even some of the Black Iron Archer Cavalry have also used a ring firing array, the lethality of our asphalt clay pots has now been minimized, unless we let the griffons kill those Black Iron Archer Cavalry at a low altitude, otherwise it will be a waste of war resources to continue to kill and injure these Cumans with the few remaining asphalt clay pots." Sure enough, the Cumans' approach did bring some trouble to the Sunset Cavalry and Angli, but it was only a little trouble.

"Herald, you're right, it's time for General Bobby......... Hehe, I didn't expect that His Excellency Bobby, one of the eight conquerors in the northwest where the sun never sets, would actually be interested in the black iron cavalry of the Cuman people, and it seems that it will not be long before Sun Linmian will form his own bow and cavalry regiment troops. ”
