Chapter 287 137 The Whole Army Was Wiped Out!

Chapter 287 -137- The whole army was annihilated!

Many years later, Charlotte still clearly remembered the first battle she personally participated in after traveling through time.

Or more accurately, she remembered the knights' charge in the sun.

Accompanied by the low sound of the horn, more than 4,000 armored knights formed a cone-shaped array and rushed towards the rebel cavalry that was several times their number.

The golden sunlight shone on the earth, shining on the knights' shiny armor, reflecting brilliant light.

No, that was not reflected sunlight.

It was the armored cavalry themselves that was shining.

The complex patterns inlaid with magic crystals on the bodies of the Bolde regular cavalry belonging to the Earldom of Tulip suddenly lit up, shining brightly, and the light between each other quickly connected.

In a blink of an eye, the 1,500 Bolde regular cavalry distributed in the cavalry array "wove" a light silver light net.

The light net was like a cone-shaped arrowhead, covering the entire cavalry array. When the light spread to the equally fully armed northern nobles, it seemed to be further charged and became even more dazzling.

Then, Charlotte saw that the light net transformed into illusory armor and weapons, attached to the knights and horses. The armor on their bodies seemed to melt into the light in an instant, becoming more and more dazzling.

At this moment, Charlotte was surprised to find that the aura of all the charging cavalry began to rise and merge rapidly...

The extraordinary auras that she could clearly identify as individuals with the keen perception of the blood clan quickly disappeared.

Instead, there was a new, heavy, and unified extraordinary aura!

These cavalrymen... The extraordinary powers on their bodies actually achieved a certain sense of integration, and at this moment they became a new whole!

In Charlotte's perception, these knights seemed to be integrated into one, condensed into a more powerful extraordinary power.

The charging cone array was like a huge sword of light.

Not only that, as more and more knights' radiance joined, the aura of the "Sword of Light" became more and more powerful...

In the blink of an eye, almost all the knights who formed the array reached the level of the entry-level!

But this is not the end.

After crossing the level, the extraordinary aura connected together was further enhanced, and soon reached a height that moved Charlotte.

More dazzling radiance bloomed on the cone array, and Charlotte saw a silver-gray light spreading on the cavalry, and soon enveloped the entire army.

That was the external source power!

And the external release of source power is the symbol of the second level of Silver Moon!

Silver Moon...

The aura of these charging knights actually reached the Silver Moon!

Although the aura was volatile and not enough to bring danger to Charlotte, a real Silver Moon, it was already much higher than ordinary stars...

Seeing the shining cavalry array rushing towards them, the main force of the rebels fell into chaos in an instant.

Although there was no battle yet, Charlotte clearly saw that those highly mobile hussars almost instantly chose to retreat, all of them began to slow down and change direction.

But it was too late.

After the source of light spread, the speed of the charging knights became faster.

Although they were wearing heavy armor, their speed even exceeded that of the Northern Hussars, who were always famous for their mobility!

On the empty riverside plain, the cavalry formation shrouded in light seemed to turn into a huge silver battle axe, smashing into the main force of the rebel cavalry.

There was no skill, no tactics.

They just rushed straight up.

With her superb eyesight, Charlotte clearly saw that the rebel cavalry at the front were easily torn apart the moment they came into contact with the cavalry formation.

They were really torn apart.

It was as if they were made of paper. The people, horses, and chain mail on their bodies were all smashed into pieces, and blood mist burst out...

They were obviously cavalry, and the leader was also an armored knight, but at this moment, these elite main forces of the Legris family were like eggs hitting stones, vulnerable.

Blood mist burst on the battlefield, and the cavalry array with light easily tore the formation of the main force of the rebels, launching a one-sided massacre!

Crush...

Naked crush!

Blood mist spread on the battlefield. It was the blood mist burst out by the rebel cavalry that was smashed by the cavalry array, and it spread rapidly with the charge of the cavalry array.

Witnessing such a horrible scene, the main force of the rebels almost instantly collapsed. Charlotte clearly saw that tens of thousands of cavalry fell into panic and chaos in an instant.

And then... it was a one-sided rout.

Charlotte could see that the nobles among the rebels were still shouting desperately to maintain the formation, but it was too late to save it.

After witnessing the terrifying power of the cavalry formation, the charging rebels had completely lost their will to fight and began to flee.

And those nobles who tried to save the situation were quickly drowned by the cavalry formation that rushed in front of them and disappeared in the light...

The low horn sounded again, and the sound of galloping horses resounded through the sky.

In the light, the cone-shaped cavalry formation changed again and gradually began to disperse.

Gradually, they transformed from a cone of light into three nearly straight formations of flying geese. Like lions chasing their prey, they began to pursue the rebel cavalry.

After they dispersed, the light on them dropped slightly, but it still maintained an overwhelming momentum.

With the blessing of light, their speed far exceeding that of ordinary cavalry became a nightmare for the rebels, and repeated charges turned into one-sided massacres.

On the hills, Charlotte was completely stunned.

After seeing that the main force of the rebel cavalry exceeded the expected number, she imagined that the cavalry on her side might be in a hard fight, and that the infantry who were attacking the city might suffer heavy losses, but she did not expect this result. .

As if the cavalry that had increased several times was just a pile of meaningless numbers, she never expected that the cavalry array, with the Tulip standing cavalry as the main force, would burst out with such terrifying power!

"Magic energy array... This is the power of the magic energy array!"

"My Lord...it turns out that Tulip's standing cavalry can also form a magic array!"

A trembling voice amidst excitement and wonder came from the side, that of Baron Angus, who was also standing on the hill.

Charlotte turned around and saw that this battle-experienced commander was no less shocked than she was.

There was even a bit of fear in his widened eyes, as if he did not expect that the cavalry team united with Tulip's standing team would burst out with such terrifying power.

Magic energy array?

Is this the magic array that Sebastian was talking about?

Charlotte couldn't help but look at the battlefield, looking at the cavalry who were like full-level players entering the novice village, and felt that her understanding of war in this world seemed to be overturned in an instant:

"Is the magic energy array... so powerful?"

"No... Lord Earl, although the conventional magic energy array is powerful, I'm afraid it won't have such a terrible effect..."

replied Baron Angus.

He couldn't help but take another look at the horrific battlefield, and muttered:

"I think this is because, on the one hand, we face too few extraordinary members of the Leglis family, and on the other hand, I am afraid it is because many of our nobles and knights from Castel have also joined the array... "

"The effect of the magic energy array increases with the strength of the participants. As initiates, they become part of the magic energy array, which naturally further enhances its power."

"It's just...just..."

"It's just that their promotion seems a bit too big?"

Charlotte continued.

Baron Angus nodded awkwardly:

"Yes, I have never commanded a battle with the magic energy array, and I did not expect that after joining the initiates, the magic energy array would become so terrifying..."

There is no suspense in the next battle.

In front of the powerful array of magic energy, the number of rebel cavalry was meaningless.

Those rebel cavalry who were surrounded by cavalry array had only two fates left——

Or, be crushed under the pursuit of the cavalry array.

Or, choose to surrender.

With his speed and strength suppressed, escaping has become a futile pursuit.

Except for those cavalry who were further away and had better luck, more rebel cavalry could not escape at all.

As the last rebel noble who rushed forward was overwhelmed by the cavalry array, the remaining rebels completely lost their will to fight.

The surrounded rebel cavalry laid down their weapons one after another and stopped resisting. Even the conscripts in the camp, who were obviously used as bait by the rebels, responded to the deafening "lay down your weapons and save your lives" from the Castel coalition. Amid the shouts, one after another chose to surrender...

From the time the cavalry array launched the charge to the time the rebels were defeated and chose to surrender, only over twenty minutes had passed.

And the infantrymen of Tulip Collar hidden in the coalition forces didn't even have time to take action.

The glow of the magic energy array gradually dissipated, and the cavalry array returned to normal.

Standing on the hill, Charlotte saw that after the light dissipated, many standing cavalry fell from their horses as if they had lost all their strength, and even some war horses fell to the ground.

However, the surrendered rebels had been initially brought under control and did not cause much chaos.

Seeing this scene, Charlotte probably realized that the magic energy array must come with a price.

"Let's go and have a look."

She ordered to Sebas and Baron Angus.

…

The battle was over, Castre's flag was planted on the camp, and the surrendered rebels were dejected and guarded together by soldiers.

Charlotte rode by and saw not strong warriors, but mostly ordinary people with frightened and confused expressions.

Think about it, most of these rebels are conscripts. They become soldiers when they pick up their weapons, and they become farmers when they put down their weapons.

The rebel cavalry was the elite, but after being consumed by the charge of the cavalry array, the rest had become prisoners.

However, the hussars in the north reacted faster and ran away a lot. Of course... more were captured.

Charlotte came to the cavalry forming a magic array.

After the formation, most of these cavalrymen were exhausted and were sitting aside to rest.

The nobles who participated in the charge also looked exhausted. However, most of them were senior extraordinary beings, many of whom had entered the ranks, and seemed to be in much better condition than the standing cavalry.

Charlotte soon met Count Gaston, who was taken in as her blood servant. He also looked exhausted and pale, but his complexion was much better than other nobles. He was commanding the soldiers to count the prisoners.

After seeing Charlotte, he stopped and saluted her implicitly:

"Your Excellency Count Castel."

Charlotte nodded slightly, and her eyes swept over the exhausted standing knights:

"Are they... all okay?"

"They just overdrawn their strength, just take a rest, but... for at least half a month, don't even think about letting them participate in the war. The magic inscriptions have also been damaged a lot, and they need to be repaired and replenished with magic crystals. If they want to reorganize their combat power... it will take about 20 days."

Count Gaston said.

Did they have to rest for 20 days on the battlefield last time...

Charlotte nodded secretly.

Being able to show such a powerful force must have corresponding limitations, but... even if it takes 20 days to rest after using it once, this magic array is abnormal enough.

Such a powerful standing... she must also form it!

It must be said that after seeing this crushing cavalry charge, Charlotte was inevitably moved.

"Thank you for your hard work. Please take a good rest. Leave the cleaning of the battlefield to the coalition forces."

Charlotte said.

...

The battle ended in less than half a day.

However, the time spent cleaning the battlefield was even longer than the battle.

It was not until the evening of the next day that the coalition forces initially settled the results of the battle.

In this battle, the coalition forces eliminated about 6,000 rebels, including 2,000 conscripts and 4,000 cavalry.

In addition, about 3,000 conscripts and nearly 4,000 cavalry chose to surrender, including the Legris family, which had less than 800 cavalry left after the charge, and more than 3,000 northern hussars.

About 6,000 war horses were seized, and countless supplies such as armor and equipment.

In addition, more than 30 nobles were captured, several of whom were inductees, including a noble from the Grand Duchy of the Northern Territory.

The estimated number of rebels who managed to escape was 3,000, most of whom were Isaac's cavalry from the north. As for the main force of the army assembled by the Legris family... it can be said that they were completely wiped out after the battle.

This result was similar to what Charlotte had imagined, but the process was completely different.

In this process, the powerful combat power displayed by the extraordinary standing guard completely overturned her cognition.

The magic array is really a bug-like existence, which can be said to be crushing in the earl-level war...

Charlotte finally understood why those powerful duchies and kingdoms were willing to spend huge sums of money to raise extraordinary standing guards.
