Chapter 1085: Bindu Cavalry

Since the start of the war, Valad has never had a direct confrontation with the enemy on the plains. He was "defending the city" and "sieging the city" from beginning to end. In fact, he had no chance to face the cavalry before, because the cavalry in front of him were the elite of the southern Bindu country, and they had never appeared near Rasha City before.

They rode tall horses with great endurance, and their running speed was far inferior to that of Rahiman's current cavalry.

"Array! Hurry up! Spell preparation! Bow and arrow preparation!"

Valad glanced at the battle formation on his side, and immediately frowned. Since the front army and the central army are both combat units, the orders were executed very thoroughly. The military quality of engineers and soldiers is far lower than that of other soldiers. After they hurriedly took up weapons and formed an formation, the team was obviously messy.

Facing cavalry raids on the open plains, you must either form a solid barrel formation and wait passively for the opponent to rush up; or you must take the initiative to send your own cavalry troops to meet them. Although the loss will definitely be not small, at least the right to decide is in your own hands. hand.

Of course Valad understood this. He was in the middle army at this time, looking at the enemy who had stopped to make adjustments in front of him, and he was estimating how to deal with it.

At a glance, the number of these cavalry was about two thousand. The other party wore typical nomadic decorations, but it could be seen that they were wearing some armors of different styles. Valad identified them through magical observation, and was able to confirm that the helmet styles of these guys belonged to the type that can only be made by artisans in the country of Iscar.

In other words, this army is basically the rangers of the Bindu country, but after the optimization of the armament supported by the Eska country, the combat effectiveness may be much stronger than expected.

He has only 800 cavalry under his command, and his combat power is simply incomparable to that of the opponent. If you take the initiative to attack, you may be defeated in one face-to-face, but you wait so passively...

Vallard's indecision has returned.

This kind of sudden encounter was too late for him to pass the information to the parliament to make a decision. According to the authority given to him by the parliament, the only thing Valad can do at this time is to seek "stability" and not waste money!

The so-called "stability" means "defense" in Valad's eyes: in his opinion, it doesn't matter whether the two thousand cavalry dare to charge against the 40,000 army. If the opponent rushes to the formation, it is very likely that they will fall into a positional battle. If they cannot rush out, it is impossible to say that they will all fall here.

So he calmly decided to defend.

At this time, the morale of the army was still good, and there were not a few soldiers equipped with bows and arrows. The mages also began to use magic to quickly dig a temporary trench in front of the position.

It seems that they are not afraid of the enemy's impact at all.

Time passed by like this.

The 2,000 cavalry stood one kilometer away for a short rest, and their care of the horses was obviously better than that of the cavalry on Laximan's side. The difference could be seen just from the shiny hair on the horses. Originally, the knights of the Bindu Kingdom wore leather armor to fight, but now they all wore light armor and helmets protected by iron sheets. Although they were far from the standard of "heavy cavalry", their protection ability and impact force were obvious. They are much stronger than before.

The horses have been running for so long, so it is logical that they are physically exhausted, but there are also magicians in these cavalry teams. They wear bird feather cloaks, but they are not druids or mages, but more similar to shamans of primitive religions, and Nexi The orc shamans on the Mia Grassland have a similar style, and they all use some very rough and primitive spells.

These spells are not very powerful, but they can quickly restore the horse's physical strength. Valad saw that they specially let some knights walk to the front of the team, and the group of shamans cast spells in the rear, obviously to avoid some "forbidden magic fields".

In just five or six minutes, the whole team completed the adjustments, and started a tentative attack on Rahiman's army amidst shouts!

The entire cavalry team was divided into three groups, and they approached Rahiman's army from three directions. They were skilled in riding, and did not directly choose a position for a frontal charge. They often started to circle around the 40,000 people The team approached and moved away from time to time, obviously looking for the weakness of the three-part army formation.

Of course, Valad would not stand still and watch this. There were archers in the army who launched a group of projectiles, but this group of cavalry was skilled in walking around within the range of the shooting, and it was hardly affected in any way. Not surprisingly, the spells used by the mages were annihilated above the cavalry. These cavalry were obviously confident, and they were not afraid of any spells at all.

At this time, there was the hum of propellers in the sky, but none of the cavalry looked up at all. They were used to the existence of these things when they were on the other side of the river, and now they only thought about dealing with the Rahiman army in front of them. .

After cruising back and forth for more than ten minutes, a team of about 500 people started to speed up without warning, suddenly approached the rear army formation, and directly launched the first attack!

Varad's face was ugly, because he realized that the enemy had seen his weakest point. But now he has no choice but to direct the archer to release the arrow immediately.

But when the battle line stretches for one kilometer, there are no more than 2,000 archers who can support this direction. The two waves of arrows they shot in a hurry did cause casualties to dozens of cavalrymen, but these Bindu knights on horses rushed over at a speed far faster than they imagined, and easily stepped over the sparsely populated area. After the trench, he crashed into the army formation abruptly...

The momentum of this fearless charge was astonishing, because the weight of the horse and the armored cavalry was more than half a ton, and the logistics soldiers holding shields and spears for defense were not strong enough, and countless people were rushed out on the spot!

Although they gritted their teeth amid the roar of the supervising army, their basic skills in battle formation were not enough. They couldn't resist a scimitar swung in front of the most powerful Bindu knights, and they were often split apart with their shields. The platoon of spearmen was trampled to the ground like paper, and the following knights rumbled past, easily inserting their sharp knives into the army formation composed of more than 10,000 people!

The team of 500 people is extremely small compared to the huge army formation, but the knights of Bindu Kingdom did not agree at all, roaring and smashing all the soldiers in front of them into pieces. The soldiers in the center of the army formation did not take Holding long spears, they only had temporarily picked up long swords in their hands. Facing the cavalry who was more than one meter taller than themselves, they didn't know how to stop them...

In other words, these soldiers should not be on the front line to participate in the battle on the battlefield, but the current situation makes them rush to the shelves. The fact that the overall strength of the army is weak.

And the soldiers present didn't even know that many of the scimitars in the hands of the Bindu knights in front of them turned out to be fine steel products supplied by the Karen Kingdom... This is the last time Rody came here and asked Houdini to have a fight with Little Khan. Items for trade, but who would have thought that this weapon would be directly cut on the body of Rahiman's soldiers?
