MTL - Full Time Mage Lord-Chapter 617 The Battle of Inkland IV

  Chapter 617 The Battle of Black Earth IV

  This is true.

  Heavy armored knights use improved Warcraft horses. They have the blood of Warcraft flowing on their bodies. Not to mention that this kind of war horses are full of strength, their ability to carry heavy loads is even more formidable.

  A warhorse is enough to carry a knight in heavy armor, including a huge knight's lance in the knight's hand.

   Once the heavy-armored knight starts to run, the impact alone will be difficult to resist even if the paladin rushes to the formation.

  The huge knight's spear can easily pierce the armor of heavy shield infantry of ordinary materials. Sometimes after a charge of heavy cavalry, the spears in the hands of the knights can hang up to three enemy corpses.

  Gulant also put down his mask. As a paladin, he originally disdained to fight with Xinghui, but it is better to fight against a kingdom and wipe out those rebel bandits.

  Gurant's formation only has 10,000 cavalry, and the rest of the army is all placed in the rear. They are all infantry, and in the eyes of Gurant, they will only hinder him.

  At the beginning, Starlight King Trogg's surprise attack was to win these infantry. If Gurante hadn't led the elite knights to support him immediately, otherwise Starlight's army would have crossed the Tianshui River.

   After that, Gurant came and defeated the Star Knights in one face-to-face meeting, which made Gurant even more proud.

  Gulant believes that the most powerful in the Starlight Kingdom is nothing but the Starlight Knights, so what kind of Longhui collar, can it be more powerful than the Starlight Knights?

  So Gurante thinks that his 10,000 combat strength is enough to deal with enemies twice as many as himself. At that time, as long as the heavy armored knight charges, then it doesn't matter who he is led by Longhui of Starlight Kingdom.

   "All troops, charge!"

  Gulant pointed forward with the spear in his hand, the horse's hooves brushed the ground, and with a long hiss, ten thousand heavy armored cavalry rushed towards Longhui's leading line with smoke and dust.

  Even though there were still a thousand meters between the two armies, Xiu Yin could still feel the whole earth trembling.

   "The heavy armored cavalry is really powerful!"

   Xiu Yin's left eye flickered, and the silver pupils had already been activated. In Xiu Yin's field of vision, those heavy armored cavalrymen rushing towards here were reflected.

   Xiu Yin was not in a hurry to order, but was observing.

  Similarly, under the leadership of Gurante, the heavy armored cavalry advanced straight forward. Gurante was not in a hurry to give new orders, he was also observing.

  However, Gurant was a little startled when he saw it, "The army led by Long Hui is a bit different."

Although the armor worn by the army in front of Grunt was not clear, and even a little dim in luster, it would definitely not make Grunt feel that the armor on the opposite side was of average grade. On the contrary, Grunt with sharp eyes was It can be seen that the armor on those soldiers is added with mithril.

  But the only thing Gurant was curious about was why the army led by Longhui made the armor such a color? Wouldn't bright silver armor be better?

  Gurant couldn't figure it out, and he didn't want to think it through. He just wanted to break through the heavy shield infantry in front, and grab Lord Huine Neumann who was hiding behind them.

  Ordinary soldiers would have been terrified when they saw the scene of heavy cavalry rushing, but Xiu Yin's troops, especially the heavy shield infantry in front, did not have the slightest fear.

   Only some newly joined soldiers seemed a little flustered. The enemy army was already very close, but the lord hadn't given an order. If he was like this, they would definitely be crushed by those heavy armored knights...

   Xiu Yin was not in a hurry to give orders. If there was any movement here, the cavalry over there would use their mobility to change. If they broke through here and directly attacked King Xinghui's position, it would be bad.

  Shuin will not give Trog a slap in the face.

  When the armored cavalry was halfway through, Xiu Yin gave an order.

   "Formation two!"

  The soldiers must have received the order of the lord, and they were refreshed.

   Of course they know what formation two is.

  The heavy shield infantry of the front army immediately dispersed slightly, and the five thousand crossbowmen behind immediately stepped forward, posing a shooting posture in the gap between the heavy shield soldiers.

   At this time, the command power fell into the hands of Irwin.

   Standing in the army, Irwin didn't change his expression in the slightest when facing him who was rushing towards him. On the contrary, he felt a little pity for this brave and foolish commander.

   "Shoot!"

  Irwin issued an order to the army.

   Whoosh whoosh!

  Thousands of crossbow bolts flew out through the air under the urging of the crossbow.

   "Crossbows, hum, crossbows can't pierce our heavy armor!" Gurant still didn't take these crossbows seriously, because their heavy armor would not be afraid of these crossbows at all.

   But as the crossbow approached, Gurant realized something was wrong.

  These crossbows were not aimed at knights like them at all, but at war horses.

  Irwin saw the enemy's cavalry front team fall one after another, and then a slight sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth.

  Shuyin had already investigated the Motu Empire, and the Motu Empire relied most on the heavy cavalry. The armor on her body is made of fine steel. After Alice's analysis, it has been theoretically concluded that the existing Longhui collar's crossbow bolts cannot penetrate it.

   But why attack the knight?

   Just shoot the horse and you're done!

  The war horse also has horse armor, but it is not as thick as the steel armor on the knight. If the horse armor is too large, it will seriously affect the flexibility of the war horse. Therefore, the war horse has become the weakness of the heavy armored cavalry of the Motu Empire.

  A row of crossbow bolts was shot, and hundreds of cavalrymen fell to the ground on the opposite side because their horses died.

  But the knights of the Motu Empire still showed their strength. Gurant didn't expect the enemy to use this hand. He heard that some dragon splendors were good at using crossbows, but if they used crossbows, that would be the end of it.

  Everyone knows that although the crossbow is powerful and has strong penetrating power, it is very slow to reload, especially the stronger the strength, the harder it is to reload.

  Because the crossbow string is very tight, even if there is a crossbow specially improved by the dwarves later, the principle of power mechanism is used to pull the buckle of the crossbow, which can save effort and mechanically wind the string.

   But this is still very slow, slower than bows and arrows. The knights charge, they can rush past without the second wave of crossbow salvo.

  Because at this time, once the crossbowman insists on shooting the second crossbow attack, they will lose the opportunity to retreat, because at this time a powerful cavalry will appear in front of the crossbowman.

   But what shocked Gurante was that the second wave came just after the first wave of crossbow bolts ended!

  The time difference before and after this is not less than two seconds!

"how is this possible!"

  Gulant said in horror.

He himself is a paladin, of course he is powerful, but with the radiance of soul energy flashing on his body, he can forcibly change the route of the crossbow arrows approaching his horse by relying on soul pressure, but he can't resist so many crossbow arrows, let alone Not to mention his subordinates, hundreds of people fell from their horses again.
