Volume 4 The First Kuroshio War Chapter 93 Forward! Breakthrough, breakthrough!
"Kill them all!"
"For the god of the wind!"
"To my lord!"
With hoarse shouts and the sound of heavy horses' hooves, the heavily armed knight lowered his gun and charged at the battle array of skeletons and zombies.
The cyan blue light fell one after another, and the knights who launched the charge seemed to be covered with a blue shield, and before they knew it, the speed of the charge had also risen to a new level.
A series of dull crashing sounds rang out, and the skeletons and zombies that formed the flanks of the battle formation instantly fell in large swaths. Many of them were knocked into the air, and many of them were directly crushed because they could not withstand the powerful impact of the knight's charge.
The knights chose not to attack in the front of the formation, but to the left and back. With just one charge, he managed to destroy most of the left side of the battle formation, pointing straight to the center of the battle formation.
If it was a battle formation composed of humans, then the commander could already think about how to escape at this moment. In in-game terms, morale is at zero, and there is a total rout. However, at this moment, it is not humans who form the battle array, but undead spirits who have no autonomous consciousness, so instead of collapsing, the battle array has signs of outflanking and counter-encirclement from both sides.
- Forward! Breakthrough, breakthrough!
The knights kept advancing, and they were so strong that there was no enemy in their path. The oncoming ghouls were knocked straight into the air, the skeletons armed with swords and shields were easily crushed, and the arrows lit with phosphorus fire were blown away by the strong wind from nowhere.
However, as they went deeper and deeper into the enemy formation, the speed of the knights gradually decreased. They are like boats moving forward in the mud, although little by little they are discharging the mud around them, but they are also surrounded by mud.
For cavalry, speed is everything, and a cavalry that loses speed is even inferior to a sworn enemy infantry. Low-level undead are generally not autonomous, but this does not prevent them from making movements such as dragging and grappling. As long as the knights lose speed, then waiting for them will be countless hands that will only forcibly drag them off their horses. And once the horses are dragged off, it means that they cannot keep up with most of them, and the swarming undead will overwhelm the fallen knights with sheer numerical superiority.
Will this happen? Of course not. Long before they burst into the battle array of the undead, the knights were prepared.
At the forefront of the fiercest battle, a blue-blue light suddenly lit up. The light that lit up at this moment was different from the scattering and non-condensing when the previous buff spells fell, not only was it extremely condensed, but you could also feel the sharpness hidden in the light.
The teal end of the blue glow appeared on the blade of the sword in the hand of one of the knights in the front row. I saw that the knight leveled the knight's sword in his hand, and then slashed at the dense undead in front of him from left to right. In the next moment, the cyan blue light turned into a skyrocketing sword, sweeping away the undead in front of the knight. Wherever the sword passed, whether it was a bony skeleton soldier or a drugged zombie, they were all separated up and down.
If it weren't for the fact that he was in Elune, a pure high-magic world, the scene in front of him would definitely be reminiscent of a beam weapon.
The area ahead suddenly emptied, and the knights, who had to slow down due to the undead who had been rushing forward, regained space to gallop, and immediately urged the horses to start accelerating. A moment later, another blue-blue sword light lit up, followed by another.
Whenever the speed of the knights' charge began to decline, a blue-blue sword would open the way. After repeating it many times, the battle array of the undead was chiseled through!
The knight at the head swung his sword and slashed at the zombie in front of him. Before the sluggish zombie could react, it was wrestled by a sword, and behind it, a ready-to-attack figure suddenly flew out.
The figure that flew out was a muscular ghoul. Its sharp claws poked out and went straight to the knight's door.
The knight swung his sword upwards without panic. The sharp blade easily sank into the ghoul's waist, then severed it at the waist.
The ghoul was hit hard before he could reach his target. Ignoring its own injuries, it screamed and stretched its claws with all its might, trying to die with its target. However, its efforts were in vain, and the sudden extension of its sharp claws only touched the target's visor and fell weakly.
The knight's bland gaze swept over the fallen ghoul, then reached out to rip off the visor and discarded it.
Ghouls' fingers and claws are generally poisonous. What's more, the ghoul in front of him has a strong body, it should be an advanced demon ghost, and there is obviously a strong fishy smell on its claws, which is obviously more poisonous. And under the cover of the mask is the mouth and nose, and it is easy to be hit, so the mask can only be discarded.
Beneath the visor was an ordinary and bland face, Ms. Moghley. She swung her sword again and slashed at the other zombie as she looked ahead.
As the commander, Ms. Moghley not only leads the battle on the front line, but also keeps an eye on the situation around her. It's just that she doesn't completely observe through her eyes, and the images transmitted to her heart allow her to know the layout and location of both sides more intuitively.
Directly in front of the place where he was now, an undead battle array that was more elite than the one in front of him was slowly approaching; On the left side, at a glance, you can see that the suture monster who is not good at stubble is eyeing it; In the rear, the undead who had pierced through the battle array had begun to assemble again.
Although the number of undead killed has been several times that of the knights who entered the battle, the results have been quite good. However, due to the absolute inferiority in numbers, the undead still formed a situation of encircling the knights on three sides. Overall, it is still the undead side that prevails.
But there is good news. The good news is that so far, there are quite a few injured knights, but none of them have been killed!
Lady Moghley swung her sword again to slash down the ghouls that swooped down at her side, then shifted her horse's head to the right and made a simple gesture behind her.
With her gestures, a low horn sounded.
The knights, who heard the sound of the horn, gave up on their opponents, tightened the reins, and turned their horses' heads to the right. Just as fearless, as resolute as they were when they first charged the undead array, the knights were clean-cut and ...... Retreat!
It only takes a few more moments for the Stitch on the left to throw the wire with the anchor hook out. As soon as the stitching monster was delayed, the undead battle array in front of him could successfully seal the retreat passage of the knights. The scattered undead will also have enough time to assemble and attack the knights' flanks and rear.
The Cavaliers seem to have the upper hand, but it's hard to say who really has the advantage. The undead don't care about battle damage, but the knights do! They are living human beings, and if one dies, one is less. And once the undead are encircled, it is estimated that there are very few knights who can retreat with their whole body!
As the blade leading the knight's charge, and as the commander, Lady Moghley made the most accurate judgments. Not only did it ensure that the knights under his command had enough time to "bleed" the undead, but it also left enough time to evacuate. Such on-the-spot judgment can undoubtedly be crowned with the title of "famous general".
However, it was clear to Ms. Moghley that the title of "Famous General" did not actually belong to her, but to the young nobleman who proposed the relevant plan, and the kitten charm who was providing real-time images in the sky.
Ms. Moghley is not unprecedented, and she also has her own experience and experience of cavalry combat. However, after coming into contact with Fang Qiuling's "intelligence first" combat method, she found that command suddenly became simpler.
The "eyes" in the air provide a view that covers the entire battlefield, and then transmits it to the front-line commanders through telepathic links. Commanders on the front line can make targeted adjustments and command based on the real-time dynamic situation of both the enemy and us......
Ms. Mogre couldn't understand the terms of "God's vision" and "fog of war" from the young nobleman's mouth, but her most intuitive feeling was that she was invincible!
For example, the initial charge from the back of the left wing of the undead array is to discover through the aerial vision that the undead have a clear focus on the formation of troops - although the number of undead on the left flank is large, it seems that the strength of the individual is far from comparable to that of the right flank. At the same time, most of the skeletons are deployed behind the left flank, and most of them are not equipped with decent weapons!
After discovering this, Lady Mogre decisively used the left flank of the undead array as a breakthrough and led her team to charge from the rear of the left array. Sure enough, one blow!
At this moment, the battle formation on the left flank of the undead had been completely pierced, but instead of further expanding the results of the battle, they immediately retreated, also because the eye in the sky had heard the information that the undead had begun to encircle.
In the past, cavalry commanders could only decide whether to continue the battle or withdraw quickly based on experience and the strength of the enemy's resistance. Sacrifice during evacuation is usually unavoidable, and being bitten by the enemy's tail is not uncommon, and the knights at the end of the assault queue should be accountable to them if nothing else.
Lady Moghley led her knights to quickly rush out of the undead's left side of the battle formation, ran for most of the battlefield, and then turned around and launched an attack on the war on the right side of the undead.
At the same time, a javelin with a cyan blue glow fell from the sky, and landed in the right flank battle formation with a "bang", and red flames and cyan lightning burst out at the same time, instantly sweeping a large area. A large gap appeared in the neat battle formation, and Lady Moghley immediately took the lead in slashing through the gap.
In the air, Eliza, who was riding on the back of a Pegasus, cautiously poked her head out and looked down. On the little face, there was joy after the attack was successful, and there was also worry for the stormtroopers. However, she also remembered the teaching of "Brother Thurik", no matter how the result of a single shot, immediately increased in height, and flew to the height of the characters on the ground again.
However, compared to the fight on the ground, Catwoman cares more about the battle in the air on the other side.
The three griffons are rising and falling in the air in the distance, constantly making various air maneuvers. Accompanying the griffin were dark, dark green rays rising from the ground, apparently some kind of ray-like spell. Not to be outdone, the griffon's rider continued to attack downward, with javelins and fiery glue dropping one after another.
