Rise In Calradia

Chapter 338: Abandon tactics

The brave knights charged forward, and the huge heavy cavalry ran over the Kujit camp like a spinning mill. The Kujit people along the way were knocked and turned on their backs. The Kujit camp in the north of the city cannot be seen here. The billowing smoke at the end was shattered, the tent was trampled and smashed, and the Kujit soldiers who were sick and unable to escape quickly turned into mud under the iron hooves of their horses. Na Yan Haida, who was in charge of the camp in the north, saw that the situation was not good and immediately retreated with his own soldiers, leaving behind the thousands of compatriots in the camp and the mercenaries and slaves in the south. Needless to say, the northern camp was directly destroyed by heavy cavalry. In just ten minutes, hundreds of people died under the trampling and lances of the Swadia cavalry. The remaining people fled and were killed by the camp. The surrounding light cavalry pursued them, either killed or captured. There were so many prairie horses fleeing in the camp that Swadia did not have enough manpower to catch them.

The infantry unit on the other side also followed the cavalry unit. They chopped down the Kujit soldiers who were still resisting and arrested the prisoners who could not run. After that, they circled with the cavalry unit and arrived at the main battlefield in the east of the city. At this time, the troops in the city had opened the gates and lowered the suspension bridge. The cavalry troops in the city had begun to speed up, followed by the defenders and armed citizens in the city.

The army doubled the outer camp of Kujit from both sides. Even if they added together, their numbers could not reach half of the enemy's number. But at this time, some of Kujit's troops were scattered in the south of the city, and in the east camp. Most of the troops at this time were also demoralized, and the army was in disarray. Diseases and long-term lack of progress made these prairie people feel homesick, or at least went to another place where it was easier to grab the spoils. So when the enemies who had been huddling in the city suddenly rushed out, they were caught off guard and panicked for a while. Many people rushed up before they even had time to mount their horses. The camp was in a mess. It was not until the army in the city had formed a formation outside the city to prepare for defense.

But when they were ready to attack in the direction of the city, the reinforcements from Swadia in the north of the city had already circled their side and rushed towards them.

Saiga Khan mounted his golden armored horse and gave orders to his men.

The Khergit troops in the camp rode on horses one after another, but surprisingly only a few soldiers launched a counterattack. Most of the Khergit cavalry were retreating, but they obviously couldn’t run fast. After all, they carried too much. The trophies of Swadia, those heavy supplies were filled with carriages, the herds of animals used for food didn’t run fast, and the number of people left behind was too small. The knights on Swadia didn’t quite understand why they wanted Do it.

Soon, the army overwhelmed the small broken cavalry and slave army, the army continued to move forward, and soon approached the large army of Kujites. The timing at this time is very good. The Kujit troops in the south of the city have not arrived yet, and the main Kujit forces are fleeing at this time. As long as they catch up with the enemy and make a charge, this huge army will have to disintegrate directly.

But when Swadia's cavalry and the infantry that cooperated with them followed up with the enemy and prepared to charge, the Kurgits suddenly made an unexpected move.

They seemed to know that these trophies could not be taken away, so they loosened the reins of the animals, cut the ropes of the carriage, overturned the boxes full of trophies, and threw the things they carried everywhere.

For a time, the battlefield was filled with released cattle, sheep and horses. The boxes on the wagons were dumped on the ground, and all the contents inside were scattered. Those dinars were raided from countless families. Silver coins clinked on the ground. All kinds of jewellery, gold and silver ornaments, tableware and clothing, silk and satin cloth were all scattered on the ground, weapons and armors. And the ordnance materials that could sell for a good price were thrown everywhere. As far as the line of sight was, there were valuable things everywhere, which shocked the Swadia soldiers who rushed to the front and became more greedy.

The soldiers pounced on the precious treasures at their fingertips. The infantry stopped advancing and began to stuff the coins from the ground into their pockets. Many cavalry passing by took the reins and dismounted and picked up the glittering gadgets. Some even went to the battle horses. Bundles of cloth and large pieces of valuable goods, the originally neat army formation was suddenly messed up. Everyone in the front row was searching for the trophies dropped by the Kurgits, as if the battle had been won.

"Don't be greedy for those things, immediately regroup!"

Byron found out what was wrong for the first time, and then the other Swadia lords also understood what he meant. The Kurgits are very good at a tactic. They will pretend to run away, discard their ordnance, attract the enemy to **** it, and then attack when the opponent is in chaos. Most of the time, this tactic can be effective and will hit their opponents badly.

"Don't take those things~lightnovelpub.net~ tell the soldiers in front that everyone is not allowed to pick up things on the ground, and those who violate the order will be put to death!"

The counts realized the seriousness of the problem almost at the same time and gave orders with the same meaning. The herald and cavalry rushed forward and loudly conveyed the orders of their lord and asked them to regroup. But although the order was delivered in a timely manner, it still did not spread the news to the entire army in a short period of time. In this chaos, only Byron’s soldiers in the battle regiment still maintained their original formation and continued to advance. Although they were greedy, they still did not grab the spoils. They know very well that if they move around, not only will they not make money, but after they return, they will be severely beaten with a whip by Resalite. What's more, Byron's generosity is well known, even if they don't **** it, they will still get a generous reward after the war is won.

Byron was very pleased with this. His training and discipline requirements for the troops finally played a role at a critical moment. The other earls were also very happy, because when Kurgit's cavalry unit began to counterattack, Byron's battle group stood in the forefront and formed a line before blocking the line, and withstood the most terrible round of shock for the army.

The huge cavalry force originally wanted to rush into the chaotic crowd, tearing the entire Swadia army apart from the center, but when they arrived in front of the formation, there was already a whole row of squares in front of them. Rodok's broad shield, and three rows of long spears facing them, as well as the axes and javelins held high by the Nords in the rear.
