Rise In Calradia

Chapter 118: : Knock on ‘’Turtle Shell’’

   "Iron tortoise!"

   Even Fatis, who is usually humble and polite, and has a strong endurance, couldn't help but scolded, his brows were frowned, and his eyes were always fixed on the Rodok square two hundred steps away.

   Obviously, when Fatis was the captain of the cavalry, he had seen this formation and suffered a lot.

   Bandak walked forward next to Byron and Fatis Elean, his expression seemed a little smug.

   "We need to receive five years of training to join the army, know what discipline is, know how to protect teammates around us, and stabilize our formation. Even if the lance has arrived in front of us, as long as the formation remains, we will not back down."

  Bandak looked a little emotional when he saw the square, and remembered the time he was training in the past.

   "That's just a tortoise shell, just smash it, there is nothing to be proud of."

   Regarding Bandak’s sense of pride, Elaine poured a pot of cold water very rudely.

   This is the first time he has seen a real Rodok infantry phalanx. Although it looks very powerful, he has always been confident and does not worry too much.

   Give him troops, and he dared to attack.

   Bandak gave her a blank look, too lazy to argue with him.

   And Kenrad also rode toward Byron, with a worried expression on his face.

   "We are still a step slower."

   Ken said with a deep face:

"I have seen the Rhodok phalanx before. This is a tortoise shell with a blade. It is difficult to break through whether it is cavalry or infantry. At Fort Garmisch a few decades ago, the Salander army was defeated. Under the shells of these turtles."

  Byron nodded and was silent. He knew that the opposing phalanx was difficult to deal with, even if it had twice the strength of the troops, the frontal attack would not take any advantage.

   And what worries Byron is that he is not the commander of the whole team, and even the actions of his own troops are restricted by the commanding power of the baron. If the opponent orders a direct attack, Byron can only bite the bullet and rush forward. In that case, the loss is hard to say.

   "What can you do?"

   Desaiwei heard their conversation not far away and glanced at them with slanted eyes.

   Eleon is naturally dissatisfied with this glimpse, but it's not easy to take advantage of face. But Fatis thought for a while and gave an answer.

"The kingdom and the Rodoks have fought for decades, and both sides have ways to deal with each other. If you use cavalry troops to attack from the corner of the phalanx, you can knock the tortoise shell open from the edge like a hammer. "

  Fatis made a few gestures when he said it.

   "Indeed, if you keep hitting this formation, you will be dispersed in a solid phalanx. But the number of our cavalry may not be enough to disperse them."

   Kenrad and Fatis discussed this issue, and Bandak did not make any other suggestions. When Byron asked him, he said that Fatis was right. Asked if there were other effective methods, he just shook his head.

   "Yes, but our current troops can't do it."

   In response, Byron just sighed and waited for the baron's order.

   But before the Baron had time to give the order, Rodok's phalanx moved and began to move forward. The spearman always held his spear, and the crossbowmen stood in front of the team, shooting an arrow from time to time.

Baron    seized this opportunity and stretched the team. While controlling the distance to the opponent, he formed a crescent-shaped encircling circle, enclosing most of the Rodok phalanx.

   And the commander Rodok on the opposite side also ordered the team to stop, with sharp spears extending from all directions.

Baron    began to order the cavalry in the team to be concentrated, and divided into two teams and began to run laps around the periphery of the opponent's formation. Occasionally, people or unarmored horses were shot down by the opponent's crossbowmen, but most of the cavalry were in this clearing between the two formations, relying on trotting to accumulate enough speed.

   "Woo..."

   The horn sounded, and the leading knights among the two cavalry teams also raised their lances, roaring and leading the cavalry units behind to rush to the opposite Rhodok phalanx.

In the square formation, the long spears of the first row were raised, and the long spears and long machetes of the second row were also placed on the shields of the first row of soldiers.

Between the gaps, some long wooden sticks with thin arms stretched out. If the speed is sufficient, these shaved sticks can also pierce the stomach of a war horse.

  The crossbowmen began to shoot continuously, using powerful Rodok crossbows to reduce the opponent's combat effectiveness. When the cavalry was twenty steps away from the Rodok phalanx, almost fifteen men had been shot down by the crossbow arrows.

The spear shrank slightly backwards. The spearmen were waiting for the opportunity. When the cavalry rushed forward, the spears and spears in the first and second rows would pierce out the cavalry armor and pierce the cavalry. Broken the horse's chest. Perhaps in the impact, the first two rows of spearmen will be knocked to the ground, and even lose their lives. But the soldiers in the back row will not back down. Under the stabbing of the gun forest, the cavalry will be brought down, and together with their wounded horses, they will hinder the teammates behind them.

Once this impact is lost, the Rhodok soldiers will advance the phalanx, and the infantry armed with the scythe will pull the cavalry off the horse, and then the rest will step on that guy's body~www. readwn.com~ Cut off his throat under the cover of his former queuing friend, or cut the artery in his armpit. If there are armor-piercing weapons such as military **** and mattock, the speed will be faster.

   However, the cavalry rushing forward did not slam into the frontal spear phalanx as they imagined, and collectively turned their horses' heads and rushed toward the corners of the two wings where the crossbowmen were.

   The two cavalry units slammed into the corner of the phalanx. Because they reduced the range of their attack, the impact seemed very dense. A dozen crossbowmen on the edge were knocked over, and their chests were pierced with lances and spears. The horses galloped past, and the soldiers who fell to the ground were quickly trampled to break their bones and plunged into the soil.

   The Rodok sergeants who were guarding the crossbowmen rushed over. They were all elites who had experienced many battles and were very skilled in fighting. They can chop off the horse's leg with a broad-bladed long knife when the cavalry's spear is approaching, and then cut off his head when the opposing cavalry loses balance.

  As the most elite existence in the Rhodok army, ten Rhodok sergeants often form a formation, which can block the attack of fifty Swadia infantry, and even intercept the same number of Swadia heavy cavalry.

   However, at this time, the Rhodok sergeants who rushed over looked a little weak when facing the cavalry passing by.

   The opponent didn't compete with his mother head-on, but passed by, taking away a few teammates he couldn't help.

   Just as Fatis said before, the baron turned the heavy cavalry power in his hand into a chisel, gathered all his strength, and constantly hit the edge of the iron turtle's shell. Once there are cracks and gaps large enough, the seemingly indestructible shell can be opened and smashed.
