The second person who traveled through time and space and became a pig

The troops sent by Kaidehong this time were still mainly cavalry. He dispatched all the cavalry to the South Gate. One reason was that the cavalry were fast, and the other was that this group of heavy cavalry were also his relatives and their combat effectiveness was not weak.

As long as all the heavy cavalry arrived at the South Gate Camp, even if Kaidwei had hundreds of thousands of infantry, he would not dare to attack the South Gate Camp easily, because the infantry would simply be committing suicide when facing the heavy cavalry.

"Your Excellency, the scouts have received news that the guards at the other three city gates have sent their troops to the South Gate for support."

"Well, what kind of troops? Are they heavy cavalry?" asked Kateri.

"Yes"

"Haha, okay, pass on my order for 30,000 light cavalry to assemble on the road that must be passed from the east gate to the south gate, and ambush the heavy cavalry. We don't seek to kill all of them, but only to kill effective casualties. Kill as many as we can, and slowly consume them, and don't fight them head-on."

Although the Minister of War is rough, he still has certain insights into military forces, otherwise he would not have become the Minister of War of the Longwei Empire.

The light cavalry, who had just returned to the camp to rest, received another order, assembled immediately, and then rushed towards the road that must be passed from the East Gate to the South Gate.

Kaidehong did send a heavy cavalry unit of 2000 from the east gate to the south gate. All the heavy cavalry were armored and mounted on horses, and the horses slowly moved towards the south gate. The heavy cavalry horses usually only galloped fast when they were sprinting, otherwise they would be too tired to show their due explosive power when the time came.

The sound of the heavy cavalry's hooves stepping on the ground was also very loud, and no one felt anything unusual. However, Kadwei's light cavalry was approaching quietly, and a strong murderous intent and a battle were about to break out.

The Kedway light cavalry began to surround the 2000 heavy cavalry like ghosts. As the distance between the two cavalry groups got closer and closer, the heavy cavalry finally discovered something was wrong.

"General, we found a large number of Kedwei's light cavalry on the outskirts. I think we may be surrounded."

The scout captain came to the captain and said.

"What are you doing for a living? You only realized it when we were surrounded."

It is said that our team leader directly picked up his sword and chopped at Captain Chihou's head.

The scout captain's eyes were filled with fear, but the captain's knife had already reached him. It was too late for him to dodge, and his head was chopped off. The head rolled to the feet of the cavalry captain. The captain didn't care, but shouted loudly.

"All personnel stop advancing and form a defensive formation immediately."

Following the captain's order, 2000 heavy cavalry immediately dismounted, formed a circle and began to build a low wall, which was an important means of defending against cavalry shooting.

This action was also discovered by Katewe's light cavalry and reported to the commander-in-chief of the light cavalry.

"Haha, a trapped beast fighting on the lam. Pass my order to all light cavalry to speed up immediately. Once they reach the attack distance, they must attack immediately. They cannot get too close. They must destroy the enemy's heavy cavalry forces by harassment."

The commander of Kedway's light cavalry ordered.

The order was scattered in the hands of the messenger and conveyed to the front-line troops. Then the light cavalry responded quickly. A large number of light cavalry quickly approached the heavy cavalry camp and began harassing shooting.

This tactic was very successful in previous battles, but it was a long process and could not be achieved overnight, and the consumption of arrows was also very huge. It was inevitable to consume some supplies during the war, so no one cared about it, but ordered a large number of hired guns in the city to continuously make arrows.

The warehouse in Longwei City reserves a large amount of materials for making arrows and crossbows every year. Although Katewei has been relatively slack about this matter since he took office, there are still a large amount of reserves.

"Whoosh whoosh"

Arrows fell towards the heavy cavalry camp like dense raindrops, but although they were armor-piercing arrows, they had little effect on the heavy cavalry wearing armor. More than a dozen people were shot and fell to the ground. Although they did not die immediately, their wailing could be heard in the camp.

The wounded soldiers were quickly carried to the camp by the logistics personnel to bandage or treat their wounds. Compared with the simple way humans and orcs treat the wounded, humans are much more humane because human emotions are more complicated. If the wounded are not treated in time, the uninjured soldiers will also be greatly affected, thus affecting their combat effectiveness.

This was just a small episode on the battlefield. The light cavalry outside kept shooting arrows, trying to kill more soldiers in the camp. However, after being alert, the heavy cavalry used small round shields to protect their heads, and the casualties were significantly reduced. The two waves of arrows from the light cavalry did not cause any damage to the heavy cavalry, because the heavy cavalry was covered with armor and protected by small round shields, so no damage was caused.

The light cavalry commander once again gave orders to the messenger beside him.

"Everyone, take out the heavy oil bombs."

Heavy oil bombs are made by filling a small ceramic jar with heavy oil, and then leaving a hemp rope soaked in oil outside. After being ignited, they are thrown to the enemy's location.

Then the heavy oil bomb exploded. After the heavy oil bomb exploded, it would not burn wildly, but continue to burn.

The liquid carried in the heavy oil bomb will flow everywhere, causing large-scale burns. This is also a powerful weapon for siege.

For heavy cavalrymen wearing armor, once they are stained with heavy oil, the heavy oil will continue to burn and penetrate into their bodies, and the people inside will definitely not feel good. In addition, heavy oil bombs will release a lot of smoke.

There was a not-so-strong explosion, and the heavy oil bombs thrown by the second and third level soldiers in the team flew into the temporary camp of the two thousand heavy cavalry.

A faint flame accompanied by thick smoke continued to spread in the camp. No matter how strong the defense of the 2000 heavy cavalry was, they still needed to breathe. Only a small number of high-level soldiers did not need to breathe and could hold on for a while. Although soldiers below the first and second levels could hold on, they could not hold on for long.

"High-level fighters activate their fighting spirit while low-level fighters cover their mouths and noses with cotton cloth."

The general among the heavy cavalry was shouting loudly back and forth in the camp. His whole body was covered with fighting spirit, and he was obviously a strong man above level three. He was using his loudest voice to remind all his comrades to make the most correct choice.

A soldier who was directly hit by a heavy oil bomb had no time to care about the general's words at this time, because his whole body was already burning. Although the burning was not so fierce, the sticky fire was still burning.

A trace of heavy gas flowed into his body through the gap in his armor, but the soldier didn't notice it. However, the heavy oil was soon ignited, and the flame slowly spread to his armor. The scorching heat was immediately transmitted to his brain through his nerves. At this time, he wanted to slap the flame away, but the heavy oil in the flame bomb seemed to be a burning dog. The more he slapped the flame, the more oxygen it got, making the flame burn more vigorously.

The flames released even higher heat, and the soldier screamed and continued to fall to the ground. This was a vicious cycle, the more they put out the flames, the more intense the fire became, and the heat became higher and higher, until finally the soldier was burned to death. It was a horrible sight, and the soldiers around him were also frightened. Although they had been soldiers for many years and were used to seeing life and death, being burned to death was really too tragic.

The general's words were somewhat useful. Many soldiers tore off cotton cloth from their clothes and covered their mouths and noses. Although breathing became more difficult, they survived longer.

"Clear Wind Technique"

In the camp of Katehong's heavy cavalry, a wizard flew up from the team and waved his staff, causing a gust of wind to quickly sweep across the camp from south to north. Although the wind was not strong, it still blew away the smoke that was bothering everyone.

Those who were not affected by the smoke could finally breathe deeply, but those who were affected by the smoke had been poisoned. The smoke was highly toxic, and everyone's mouth corners were black, their bodies were stiff, and they kept wailing on the ground in extreme pain.

"Pastor, priest, please heal my soldiers quickly," shouted the general of 2000 heavy cavalry. Obviously he was not harmed by the smoke.

The priest came to the general, but there were already many poisoned people. The priest took a look and was afraid from time to time, but he did not stop working. He injected gentle energy into the soldiers' bodies. The soldiers' originally black and purple lips slowly turned pink and returned to normal. However, this treatment was too slow, and he could not cure all the hundreds of people sent here. He could only save energy as much as possible and treat as many soldiers as possible.

"Okay, okay, okay, just watch. Many people on the opposite side have been poisoned. Soldiers of the Longwei Empire, don't stop. Keep attacking the heavy cavalry camp. Victory today will definitely belong to our Longwei Empire."

The commander of the light cavalry was extremely happy when he saw the heavy cavalry in a panic after being attacked by his heavy oil bullets. This was the first battle between Kaidehong and Kaidewei. If he came out on top, it would definitely leave a good impression on the emperor and his promotion would be just around the corner.

The light cavalry turned around the dock again and began to run back and forth around the heavy cavalry camp, constantly shooting arrows in their hands.

The heavy cavalry camp, which had just calmed down, was once again faced with the enemy's attack.

The uninjured archers in the heavy cavalry camp also began to fight back, but it was obvious that the archers in the heavy cavalry camp were not as numerous as the light cavalry outside, and they were always suppressed. From time to time, a few archers would be shot to the ground by the light cavalry's arrows.

At this time, the heavy cavalry camp was already in a panic. As the saying goes, morale can be boosted but not lowered. Once morale is lowered, it will not be so easy to raise it. The soldiers were on the defensive and suffered many injuries. At this time, morale had dropped to the lowest point.

In less than half an hour, more than 300 people in your heavy cavalry defense camp were killed or wounded.

The heavy cavalry general had no other good solution for the moment, and he did not have the power of magicians in his hands. If he had, he could still resist, but the power of the magicians all followed Lord Kaidehong.

He didn't have it in his hand. At this moment, the general was thinking that Kaidehong's strategy might have made some mistakes this time, but he didn't dare to say it out loud, because Kaidehong has always been the spiritual leader of this army.

"We can't go on like this. If we continue like this, we will be exhausted. I think we should rush out with our soldiers and fight the enemy to the death."

A man who looked like a leader stepped forward and suggested.

"No, if we rush out now, what will we do with the wounded? They are all our brothers. Even if we die, we must die together. But I believe Lord Kaidehong will definitely send troops to support us. Everyone stay calm and don't be afraid. I believe victory will belong to the great Lord Kaidehong."

The general who said this was very moved. Until this moment, the captain still cared about the safety of the injured soldiers. He was not a coward, so he continued to carry out the general's orders.

"The commander-in-chief has ordered that all light cavalrymen throw all their heavy oil bullets into the heavy cavalry camp to let them know how powerful our Longwei Empire is."

Although the constant harassment would slowly deplete the entire heavy cavalry team, the commander-in-chief of the light cavalry could not wait any longer. He wanted Katewe to hear the news of his victory as soon as possible.

The light cavalry who received the order took off the heavy oil bombs from their bodies without saying a word, then lit them and threw them out. The heavy oil bombs were like meteors falling from the sky, ruthlessly hitting the camp of more than 2000 heavy cavalry. Each one burned slowly after touching the ground, and then a slight flame and thick smoke emerged directly, which quickly enveloped the entire fleet cavalry and heavy cavalry camp.

The smoke this time was ten times thicker than the last time. The magician, who had just reacted, was ready to release the Breeze Spell again, but the thick smoke was also highly toxic. After inhaling a few breaths of the smoke, he lost control of his body and fell to the ground.

It was just a second-level magician, and was found by the cavalry captain himself. He knew the importance of magicians in the army, but this time Kaidehong did not equip himself with better magician power.

Let the general recruit his own personnel. I didn't expect that this second-level magician would die in this poisonous smoke.

Seeing that the poison was getting stronger and stronger, the heavy cavalry general finally made a decision.

"Order everyone to put down the wounded, and those who are capable to put on armor and mount their horses, and follow me out immediately."

The captain sighed deeply. They really suffered a loss this time. They wanted to support the South Gate, but they didn't expect to be attacked by Katewei's cavalry who came to attack the reinforcements.

"Okay, okay, the heavy cavalry is just like this. Aren't they falling one after another in my light cavalry brigade? Pass the order not to let the light cavalry escape and increase the intensity of the attack."

Kill the enemy while he is ill, this is the consensus of all war leaders. No one will pretend to be kind, and no one will pretend to be sympathetic. This is the reality that everyone must abide by.
