King’s Kingdom

Chapter 71: I laugh at Theodosius for being ignorant

The charge of Lan Yin's heavy cavalry is unrivaled. The regular army of the rebels with real combat effectiveness has already dispersed to control the peasants and soldiers. Only 3,000 people are left to form a large square, and the rebel lords are also here.

The 10,000 regular troops under Theodosius and the rebel peasants and soldiers were not on the same level at all. Although their advance was slow, they brought great pressure to the enemy.

Often, the Lanyin warriors had not yet met the enemy, and the distance between the two sides was still more than ten meters. The peasants and soldiers fled, and the threat of death brought by the densely packed sharp guns made everyone feel fearful.

The battle line composed of tens of thousands of soldiers directly destroyed the already crumbling formation of the peasants and soldiers, and tens of thousands of peasants and soldiers who were disorganized and fled everywhere, the scene was extremely chaotic.

Even after the Lanyin soldiers entered the battle for only a minute or two, few enemy troops were killed, but they were stunned to find that there were no enemies in front of them!

Seeing this, Theodosius did not intend to let the soldiers pursue him, so he rode his horse to keep up with the advancing Lanyin soldiers and issued a new order.

"Destroy the rebel regular army! Catch or kill all the rebel nobles."

As a result, the soldiers who were spread out in a horizontal line shifted their formation at an extremely fast speed, expelling the messy peasants and soldiers in front of them, and encircling the regular rebel army in the center of the formation.

Duke Brando's mood changed very quickly. Just now, he was still high-spirited and confident that he could become the new king, but now his heart is full of despair and fear. Now he just wants to escape back to his castle and find a chance. Comeback.

"Retreat! Retreat! A group of wine bags and rice bags! Hurry up!"

He quickly ordered his lord and his army to retreat, cursing in pain.

These regular troops are still very efficient in executing orders, but they are quite difficult to execute.

There were peasants and soldiers running and fleeing everywhere. Every step they took, they couldn't move an inch, and they couldn't retreat quickly at all.

In desperation, these rebel soldiers began to use massacres to drive away the peasants and soldiers around them. Under such behavior, the fleeing peasants and soldiers finally stayed away and no longer hindered their actions.

However, at this time, the Lan Yin army's encirclement of them was almost half completed, and there was only a small gap left.

"It's there! It's there! Let's rush out!" Duke Brando pointed to the gap in the encirclement that had not yet merged, as if seeing the last glimmer of hope, and rushed towards that position.

Theodosius looked at the chaotic battlefield, and his expression was very comfortable. There was no suspense about the outcome of this war. Victory was a certainty. The only uncertainty was how much the loss was and whether the rebels could be captured in this battle. many nobles.

The Lanyin warriors who surrounded the enemy were very fast. They pushed in with their spears in their hands. The rebel soldiers in the encirclement often needed to face five or six sharp spears.

However, the length of the spear in their hands is far less than that of the Lan Yin army, not to mention the rebel soldiers who use swords and shields. Under this tight range, the encirclement is getting smaller and smaller, gradually compressing the living space of the rebels.

"Why hasn't the encirclement been completed yet?" Theodosius was very dissatisfied when he saw that there was a gap of more than 40 meters in the encirclement.

"Where is... Count Spencer?" Theodosius was a little surprised, because where the veteran Count Spencer was leading the army to command the battle.

But in the past two minutes, he has not been able to complete the encirclement, which is really unreasonable, so how could a veteran who has been on the battlefield make such a low-level mistake?

"Order the knights to stop chasing the peasants and soldiers, let the steppe hussars also stop their current orders, and let them rush to the gap in the encirclement immediately to fill the gap!" Theodosius issued an order to the flag-holding officer beside him.

The howling sounded, and both Critidos and Ser Ledwin turned their attention to Theodosius, and saw a simple semaphore, which Critidos and Ser Ledwin knew instantly.

Immediately they drove their cavalry toward the place described by Theodosius' order.

At this time, the enemy's formation had disappeared, and the battle system was on the verge of collapse. Duke Brando and the lords rushed their horses to prepare to escape, which made them lose their courage to fight.

"Hurry up! Hurry up!" Duke Brando desperately beat the warhorse under his crotch with a whip, his expression distorted.

All his ambitions disappeared at this moment, replaced by the desire for life, he knew that once he fell into the hands of that **** little king, he would have absolutely no hope of living.

Whether it is a comeback or desperation, his only wish is not to fall into the hands of Theodosius.

Earl Spencer looked coldly at the fleeing rebel lord, and gave the order to encircle with a blank face.

Finally, before the complete encirclement, Duke Brando and a group of lords led a small number of knights to take out this fatal encirclement.

"Damn! What the **** is he doing!" Theodosius looked annoyed. It was his responsibility to let the Duke of Brando and the rebel lord escape, and to let the gap last for three minutes was not a qualification at all. mistakes a commander can make!

"Get out of here! We still have a chance!" Duke Brando shouted breathlessly~www.readwn.com~ At this time, he still did not give up that glimmer of hope.

After running for about two minutes, under the desperate gallop of the war horse, he has already run out for a distance of nearly one kilometer.

The excitement of escaping from the dead immediately occupied his heart, slowing down the horse a little, he proudly said to the lords around him: "I laugh at Theodosius for being ignorant, if he arranges a chaser here, I can escape?"

"The little king is nothing more than that. It seems that there are many virtuous people under his reputation. When I make a comeback, today's hatred will be repaid tenfold!"

Duke Brando only felt that the defeat of this war was a complete accident, and the little king was nothing special. It was just bad luck this time. The next time he fought, he would definitely be embarrassed.

As for being surrounded before, when the whole line was defeated, the fear and despair in his heart had long been thrown into the clouds. If he didn't have enough optimism, how could he boldly raise the flag of a comeback?

However, as soon as he finished speaking, he heard a rush of hooves behind him.

"It's the knights of the Rhine Kingdom! They're chasing after them!" A knight in the guard hurriedly shouted, looking at Duke Brando, hoping that he would make a decision sooner.

However, as soon as he looked over, he could only see a distant back, a sturdy body running wildly on horseback, raising a white snow.

"It's too fast!" the knight shouted, also hurriedly riding his horse, rushing towards the direction of Duke Brando's escape.

"Horse! Good horse! Run faster!" Although Duke Brando was old, his reaction speed was not slow. As soon as he heard the sound of hooves, he immediately urged the horse to flee from here, and the others couldn't follow at all. on his reaction.
