Chapter 243 Hollow Square Array 3

Just as Jaais's horse raised its front hooves, several shells whizzed in. A 6-pound shell almost grazed his face.

The shell plunged into the ground not far away, and the splashed mud shot him in the face. The shell, still carrying a lot of kinetic energy, bounced up again immediately.

"Whisper--"

The left front leg of a nearby warhorse was broken into two pieces by the bouncing shell. It screamed in pain, then fell to the ground and could not get up again. The knight on its back was also thrown to the ground and ate the mud.

The shells bounced on the ground, just like plowing the land, releasing their power to the fullest. The cavalry and warhorses on the road were in bad luck. If they were touched, their skin would be broken, if they were rubbed, their muscles would be injured, and if they were touched, they would be directly finished.

The first round of bombardment was just a test. The Alda artillery fired 6 shells at the enemy, and only 2 hit the target team. However, because the enemy was arranged densely, they still killed two people and three horses and seriously injured four people and five horses.

"Disperse! All disperse!"

This time, without the need for Jais to remind them, the cavalry of the Kent family was in chaos, and the originally tight formation was suddenly scattered. Even if the knights did not urge them, the frightened horses would be in chaos.

"Run! Speed ​​up and run!"

In order to prevent being targeted by the "Thunder Hammer", the cavalry urged their horses to run faster.

Jais, who was almost called by the Father, was scared out of his wits. It was too thrilling just now, and his right face still felt hot.

Just after running a short distance, there were several more "boom" sounds, and the artillery deployed in the other corner of the square also opened fire!

This bombardment did not achieve any results, but the huge power made the cavalry even more chilling.

After several bombardments and the death of several of his men, Jaais finally realized what the situation was like now - he had no way to deal with the square in front of him!

His men could not get close to the enemy, but the enemy's "thunder hammer" could chase him and hit him. Moreover, the firing speed, range, and power of the "thunder hammer" far exceeded the weapons such as catapults and crossbows that had similar functions.

"Retreat!"

After reluctantly admitting the reality, he decisively issued a retreat order, leading the knights and squires to form a sparse and loose formation and retreat from the direction they came from.

Alda's "thunder hammer" chased them all the way to "send them off" until they ran out of range.

...

Bryce held a telescope and observed the direction the enemy left.

"It doesn't look like the enemy is pretending to retreat!"

So he ordered the disbandment of the hollow square, the first battalion and the artillery company continued to guard the surroundings, and the second battalion and the transport company cleaned up the battlefield.

After the order was issued, the battlefield suddenly became extremely quiet.

This silence lasted only a few seconds before it was broken by a sudden noise.

"Long live!" "Long live!"

All the officers and soldiers suddenly burst out, shouting hysterically.

"We won!"

Everyone's face was filled with excitement and their hearts were filled with pride.

Needless to say, the recruits, the veterans were also like this. Although they had all participated in the battles to suppress pirates and quell the Bayerdin rebellion, the thrilling level could not be compared with the battle just now.

Just now, I was confronted with nearly 300 knights!

I can brag about it for the rest of my life when I go back, and then pass on my glorious deeds to my descendants.

Strictly speaking, nearly half of the Kent family's cavalry team are knights' squires, but for the previous big soldiers, they are no different. As long as they ride majestic horses - what they think is majestic - and wear gorgeous armor - what they also think is gorgeous - they are big shots who can't be messed with.

Now more than 200 big shots who were once untouchable were forced to run away in disgrace by themselves and their companions, leaving behind many corpses.

"God's protection is like wind, thunder and lightning~ Who doesn't know Lord Graman and his soldiers~"

"Lord Graman~ My Lord~ Hero with a shining crown~ Your soldiers are always the most loyal~"

"As long as you continue to let us sweep the enemy~ We will overturn the whole world for you~"

The soldiers spontaneously sang the songs they sang during the march before, and they sang more and more vigorously.

It felt a bit boastful before, but after the battle just now, the officers and soldiers are now completely involved.

"Bang!"

The sudden gunshot stopped everyone from continuing to have fun.

Deputy Commander Joyce had a grim face. He held the smoking pistol in his right hand and said grimly: "If I had turned the muzzle a little just now, one of you would have been killed."

Then he winked at Bryce.

Bryce was stunned at first, then reacted, and an embarrassed look flashed across his face - this guy was just infected by the emotions of the officers and soldiers, and was excited with everyone.

"Ahem!" He coughed twice, put on a serious expression and ordered loudly: "Scouting squad, send someone to chase them to see if they really retreated!"

As soon as the voice fell, several riders emerged from the square and went in the direction of the Kent family cavalry retreat.

Bryce said to everyone in a deep voice:

No mistake, one poem, one post, one content, one 6, one book, one bar, one look!

"I understand everyone's excitement at the moment, but we are now on the battlefield, and we must make vigilance our top priority. This situation is forbidden to happen again in the future! Execute my order just now immediately!"

"Yes!"

Everyone converged and answered together.

Therefore, the first infantry battalion and artillery company continued to be alert, while the second team camp and transportation company scattered the search and cleaning the battlefield in the class.

"Look! This horse is tall and strong! It is most suitable for pulling artillery!"

"This armor is very valuable at first glance! Shining ... Ah, there is a bag of money!"

"I want to remind you that all the investments must be returned!"

The battlefield was full of laughter. Although it was frightened by Major Joyce for a while, the joy after victory did not decrease at all.

Many cavalry of the Kette family became the captives of the Alda army. They were either inconvenient to move their own injuries or mounts, and they were chased back after running on their two legs.

The Alida soldiers gathered those captives who could still move together and ordered: "Stand in a honest row!"

Captives with a knight status began to set up:

"I want to remind you, a bitch! I am a noble knight ... oh! Dare to hit me!"

"Go to you! Dare to wave it like this!"

"I protest! You can't treat a knight like this! Let your commander come!"

"Proteway you! Let's let you eat a gun again!"

Watching the "fire crossbow" held in the soldiers' hands, the captives became honest.

Just when the Alda army was busy, there was another dust on the road in the north, and the soldiers who were cleaning the battlefield immediately were vigilant.

"It's the cavalry of the Hyle family just now!"

A officer holding a telescope recognized the other party.
