I was a knight in the Middle Ages
Chapter 75 The whole army returns to camp
"Stupid! How can the cavalry be dispersed! Let Bahom gather all the cavalry forces immediately! Defend with all your strength and wait for the return of Captain Truss." Bahom couldn't help but feel extremely anxious. He could only pin his hopes on Truss. If Truss could capture the other commander, all the losses could be compensated.
"Chief, this is bad. Chief Bahot has fallen into a trap. The enemy commander Alpha faked his death. All this is their conspiracy." Suddenly, a guard rushed into the meeting room in panic.
"What did you say? The enemy commander is not dead? This is all their conspiracy!" Bahom was shocked. Their attack was completely a trap set by the enemy and the situation was very serious.
"Tell Bahom to come back immediately, come back as fast as possible." Bahom realized the seriousness of the situation. If he was not careful now, the whole army might be wiped out.
"Notify Captain Truss immediately and ask him to return to support immediately. This is all an enemy conspiracy!" Bahom could only issue one order after another while concentrating his forces on the front line.
"Lord Bahom, it's bad. The enemy has completely blocked our front lines, and all the signalmen we sent out have been intercepted." A sentry came running to report with sweat all over his forehead.
"How is this possible? How could they have so many people? There are more than a thousand soldiers on the front line, how could there be any ambush to stop us?" Bahom couldn't believe it, but when he came to the edge of the city wall and looked at the densely packed cavalry and infantry below, he roughly estimated that there were at least six or seven hundred people. These were real troops, not counting the ambushes hidden in the dense forest.
"We are in a desperate situation." The number of soldiers besieging the city was no less than the number of bandits defending it, and it was almost impossible to break out.
"Hurry up and light the signal fire and ask for help from Trus City!" Now Bahom can only pin his hopes on this comrade.
……
"Captain Truss, something terrible has happened. The main camp has sent a signal for help. Let us return immediately!" Arras hurriedly caught up with the captain in front.
"The enemy commander is right in front of us, we must not shake the morale of the army!" Truss's goal was clear, he would not return until he captured the enemy commander. In fact, according to the speed, the two sides should have met, but there was no movement at the moment.
"Report to the lord, a large enemy force has been spotted five kilometers ahead!" The sentry suddenly sent a message.
"The entire army, speed up!" Truss immediately urged his horses to speed up.
"Boss, we have spotted a large number of cavalry in front and on the right. Should we change our route?" Papua received the intelligence and immediately ran to Liv.
"Are they here to welcome us, or are they bandits?" Liv knew that a war was going on in this place and anything could happen.
"I can't tell, but the cavalry right in front of us is speeding towards us." Papua knew that the person coming was not friendly, and if it was his own cavalry, he could have notified them in advance.
"The tanks will block the periphery and form a circular defensive team." Liv gave the order immediately.
"Yes, Boss." Papua knew that Liv's order was correct. Now they had to either leave or defend. It was too late to escape. The team had chariots and carriages, but they could not outrun the pure cavalry of the other side. They could only defend on the spot.
"Archers, get ready!" Liv and her men are all veteran mercenaries. As long as the order is given, they will know the next task arrangements.
"Captain Truss, the enemy is using chariots for defense. Should we just charge in?" Arras ran over.
"Report to the lord, a cavalry is advancing towards us on the right." The sentry brought the message again.
"Attack the cavalry on the right!" Truss gave the order quickly, and the long line of cavalry quickly changed direction.
"Captain Lina, the left-wing cavalry is charging towards us!" A cavalryman rushed over.
"Are they friendly forces or enemy forces?" Lina looked at the two teams in front of her, unable to tell.
"The other side has no flags, so it's difficult to tell who is friend or foe," the sentry answered loudly.
"It's better to be cautious and not kill each other." Lina didn't dare to act rashly.
"Captain, the enemy ignored our warnings and is still charging forward at the same speed. We still have three kilometers to go." The sentry sounded the alarm again.
"Lina, give the order quickly, attack or retreat? We can't stand still, otherwise we'll be finished." Ino reminded anxiously.
"Captain Lina, it's the enemy, it's the enemy." The dark shadows in the distance have already attacked, and all the signalmen who approached have been killed.
"Charge in formation." Lina's order seemed to be too late. The brigade began to charge, and the enemy had already crashed into their own camp.
The cavalry's speed advantage was fully utilized by the opponent. In a single encounter, Lina's cavalry was dispersed.
"Lina, retreat, retreat to the central military camp." The current situation is that the reinforcements have become the objects of request for help.
"Retreat, everyone retreat to the central military camp." After a brief encounter, only fifty or so of Lina's two hundred cavalrymen escaped.
"Open the defense and let the other party in." Liv saw who was coming and immediately ordered to open the defense circle.
"Ino, am I unsuitable to be a commander?" Lina looked downcast. Such heavy casualties occurred in her first battle command. If the reinforcements were not around, these people would surely be wiped out.
"Captain Lina, why are you here?" Liv looked at the lost Lina in surprise. The last time they parted, Lina was still the captain, and now she leads a team of hundreds of people.
"We came to support you under the order of Lord Alpha, but we didn't expect to encounter the enemy halfway. If you hadn't appeared in time, I'm afraid we would have been wiped out." Lina said with energy.
There were about a hundred cavalrymen who returned one after another, and the rest were probably buried underground.
"Victory and defeat are common in the military, Lina, don't worry about it."
"No one is allowed to attack. Stay put and defend and shoot with bows and arrows." Liv gave the order again. Liv is not a knight, nor does she possess the spirit of chivalry. Her only principle is to live well.
"Shoot, everyone, long-range strike." Lina also gave the order. Lina was suitable for the mission, but when it came to giving orders herself, she was a little hesitant and timid.
"Liv, will this disrupt Alpha's plan?" Lina was always worried and wanted to rush back to provide support as soon as possible.
"Don't worry about Lord Alpha. Look at the smoke in the sky. That's the enemy calling for help. We can only stay still and attract a large number of their cavalry. That will give Lord Alpha the greatest support, and Lord Alpha and his men will be closer and closer to victory." Liv looked up at the smoke, and her thoughts became clearer.
"Oh." As the saying goes, caring too much makes you confused. Lina is now eager to go back. Alpha has been faking his death for so many days, and Lina is worried every day. She has too many things to tell Alpha, but now she doesn't even have time to get away.
"Lina, if you want to be a qualified commander, the first element is to stay calm and deal with any situation calmly." In this regard, Liv did a good job.
"Captain Truss, the spies in the front have sent us a message that this team is not where the enemy commander is. Their commander is still in the fortress in the rear and has not set out at all." The sudden news surprised Truss.
"Report to Captain Truss, the enemy commander Alpha is faking his death, and our leader Bahot is under siege and requires support." News also came from the rear.
All the information showed that this was a long-planned conspiracy, and the commander's existence seemed to be just a fictional story.
"Captain Truss, we meet again." Suddenly, Liv stood on the roof of the carriage and shouted loudly to the other leader.
"What? Don't you recognize me? Captain Truss. I'm Liv Gust. Can we pause the fight and have a good chat?" Liv boldly walked out of the battle circle.
"Captain Truss, I'm not afraid of a woman like me, so why are you afraid? I'm powerless and I just want to say a few words to you." Liv was delaying time so that Alpha could get more battlefield support.
"We are enemies now, we have nothing to talk about." Truss refused the other party's dialogue.
"In that case, let's just wait and see!" Liv retreated back to the encirclement.
"Arras, listen up. You lead a hundred knights to guard these enemies around. No matter what method you use, keep them for three hours." Truus knew that he was deceived, but this cavalry brigade must be stopped, otherwise it would not be of much use to go back to support now.
"Captain Truss, I need your cooperation." Arras told Captain Truss his idea.
The large cavalry regiment began to circle and harass the mercenary group, but did not launch a single attack.
……
"Chief, Chief Bahom has not sent reinforcements to support us, what should we do?" Inside the camp, Bahot's subordinates were in a panic and asked him for instructions.
"Don't worry. We have an absolute advantage now, and the enemy is simply unable to compete with us." Bahot's words were true. With such a large force, they could move forward and backward freely. However, such an attack could not annihilate the enemy at all.
"Have our cavalry returned?" Bahot was a little impatient. There were still 300 cavalry outside, and only 500 cavalry were needed to join. With the strong advantage of troops, Bahot would not be afraid of anyone.
"Chief, we can't contact the outside world." Now, the camp has been completely blocked.
"Wait half an hour. If there is no reinforcement, return to the camp immediately." Bahot knew very well that although they suffered heavy losses, only by returning to the camp would they have the capital to continue the revolution.
……
"Lord Alpha, my troops have joined forces with Bach's troops to annihilate the surrounding cavalry. Only the remnants of cavalry are left around Rowling's troops." Tasli hurried back to report with the blood on her face not yet wiped dry.
"Very good. Now prepare for the second phase, attack." Following Alpha's order, the cavalry on both sides of Will and Fattam suddenly exerted their strength. One side of the camp that had been tampered with collapsed with a loud bang, instantly crushing a large number of enemies.
"Archers shoot." Without the protection of the camp, the infantry became sitting ducks for the archers.
"Retreat to the mountain stronghold." Bahot made a prompt decision and immediately ordered a retreat.
But it seemed too late to retreat now. Alpha concentrated all his cavalry and sent the entire army forward. There were more than 700 cavalrymen. With one round of arrows, at least one or two hundred soldiers fell.
The war drums sounded, the enemy troops had arrived, but the camp gates were still wide open.
"Just move forward!" Bahot shouted from the camp. The cavalry rushed out first, followed by the infantry. They rushed out like a tide, like a group of wasps swarming bees. However, the enemy's cavalry was several times more than theirs. Countless arrows flew, and ... clusters of soldiers fell to the ground.
Marching forward was the best option at that time. If they fled, they would surely die on the way. As long as they moved forward, they still had a glimmer of hope. Because they had no other choice.
"Those who surrender will not be killed." Alpha took the lead and the general shouted loudly, which echoed again and again on the battlefield. However, what answered him was a war roar. The soldiers raised their weapons and bravely moved forward.
"Follow me and fight back!" Bahot led the cavalry to withdraw from the camp quickly without any pause. The infantry pushed and shoved each other, wishing they had two more legs.
The Alpha army was also in action. According to the earlier plan, the attack on the camp was just an illusion. Once the infantry left the camp, they would immediately lead the army to intercept the enemy's rear.
Enemy cavalry is approaching quickly from behind. Lilia reports: "Sir, cavalry is approaching quickly from behind. The distance is eight kilometers, and there are about four hundred soldiers."
Alpha knew that he had to dispatch troops to resist the enemy, so he ordered Fattam, Tasli and Will to resist the enemy's pursuers. The three forces together had more than 350 people, which should be enough to deal with this wave of pursuit.
Alpha now only has Will and Robin Hood's 400 cavalrymen, and less than a hundred guards, including Lilia's sharpshooters and the Monkey Special Operations Team.
"Kill!" Tasli and Bach are both examples of bravery and good fighting skills. At their command, the 300 cavalrymen they led were mobilized, like two long dragons sweeping across the earth in an instant.
"Charge with arrowheads!" Captain Truss had only one thought in mind, which was to rush back to the camp as soon as possible. Only with the protection of the camp could they hold on. Fighting on the plains was a life-or-death struggle. Their living space was getting smaller and smaller. They were unable to replenish their troops, and it was only a matter of time before they were annihilated.
In the blink of an eye, the three teams collided with each other, dense spears and guns stabbed out like a forest, the clanging sounds of swords and knives clashing were chaotic, and the battle entered a white-hot state from the very beginning.
Truus finally got the opportunity he had longed for. He took advantage of the cover of the arrowheads and successfully broke through the enemy's encirclement. However, before he could breathe a sigh of relief, the scene before him made him pale.
At some point, a group of well-equipped heavy cavalry had quietly occupied the position in the front, leaving no time to stop.
At this time, the enemy's heavy cavalry began to attack, with spears like a forest, and the situation of Truus and his cavalry became more and more dangerous.
"Charge with arrowheads!" Truss gave the order decisively. There were not many enemy heavy cavalry in front, and this was their chance.
The spears were like dragons. In just a moment, several soldiers were pierced by the enemy's spears. Looking at his companions falling one after another, Truss was filled with anger and unwillingness. The enemy's heavy cavalry was too strong. If they continued to force their way in, their cavalry would be wiped out.
"Split the two wings." With the order, three hundred cavalrymen divided into two waves and directly bypassed the heavy armored cavalry in front.
Fattam's heavy cavalry is extremely powerful, but it also has obvious shortcomings. It has no ability to pursue the enemy cavalry.
"Don't worry about the infantry, all cavalry will attack." Looking at the cavalry behind, Alpha didn't care about the infantry who were fleeing in all directions, and Alpha immediately ordered to meet the enemy.
"Go ahead and kill."
