On May 12, 1125 in the continental calendar, Akas Heights.

"The soldiers of the Third Brigade, today is a special day, a day suitable for combat, and in fact, for true warriors, every day is a suitable day for combat."

"Across from us are warriors from the kingdoms of Bararia and Oponia, and mercenaries who follow wealth from the far and unfamiliar north. Each of them is a warrior worthy of respect, but in women Leading away from the land with the children, came here to fight with us. I think no one except idiots will go to the battlefield in a daze, but they are so stupid, they have no force worthy of respect, and there is no corresponding. mind."

"And you, the pride of the kingdom, the trusted rock of His Majesty the King, will be here under my leadership, together with friends from various vassal nations, to defeat the invading enemies, and sprinkle the glory of Christ on this land, with blood Wash the endless sins of the enemy with fire! Use the enemy's blood to write the glory of the legion!"

"War! War! War!"

"Glory! Glory! Glory!"

In the sea of ​​cheers, Richard Bono slowly pulled out the saber around his waist and held it in front of him, watching his face reflected by the bright sword, then raised it high and shouted loudly. Said: "The soldiers of the third brigade, squeeze your muskets firmly and hold on to your position. As long as you face the invading enemy bravely, you will surely be able to win the final victory!"

"Now, ready to fight!"

"Enter the battlefield! Ready to fight!"

"Push the cannon into the position! Load the cannonball!"

For a time, various shouts rang from the third brigade position one after another. Soldiers swarmed into the trenches in units of brigade, or stood behind the earth wall, put their rifles in front of them, and aimed at the coalition forces on the opposite side. In their field of vision, they could clearly see that most of the coalition forces were barbarian cavalry without armor and skins. Most of them carried a short bow on their backs and a handle was slung around their waists. Scimitar, the simpler condition is also holding a lance with sharp spear heads at both ends, and a few short javelins wrapped in animal skins on his back.

Even at a long distance, the soldiers can still see the ferocious and hideous faces of the barbarian cavalry. They have to worry. Although there have been relevant training on the training ground, the training is training after all, and there will be no deaths in the training. , And people will die in actual combat, and the real battlefield is even more dangerous.

"Check the muskets in your hands and make sure they have been reloaded."

The officer’s reminder asked the soldiers to check the guns in their hands. At this time, the artillery began to adjust the shooting. The artillery stared at the white lines or various signs drawn on the battlefield. As long as the enemy exceeded the signs, they His artillery will roar immediately, giving the enemy a wave of justice.

"You can prepare to charge."

On the other side of the battlefield, the general of the Kingdom of Bararia in the coalition looked at the Winster army hiding in the position, and said to the general of Oponia next to him, who also looked at the enemy who was not in line with common sense. Hearing that, he nodded and said: "Let the mercenary cavalry rush for a round and try the water."

"Go tell Kurban and his people, and rush up to test the details of the Winsters."

"Yes."

The messenger was ordered to leave and notified the commander of the mercenary cavalry of the two generals' orders. Although the leader of the barbarian named Kurban knew that this was purely an order to die, he still summoned himself for the generous commission they paid. Under his men, let him lead a group of cavalry for the first round of tentative charge.

Immediately afterwards, hundreds of cavalrymen were fired out of the coalition army formation. Although they were only hundreds of cavalrymen, their aura when they ran was quite impressive. Feeling the slight tremor of the earth, the soldiers standing in the trench couldn't help but clenched their hands. Flintlocked, swallowing the saliva from tension, and the fingers trembling slightly in front of the trigger.

Rumble--

Hundreds of cavalry ran together and quickly passed the mark set by the artillery before the battle. As the first cavalry entered the farthest range of the artillery, the forty long-barreled guns deployed on the position roared, dark shells. It flew out at high speed in the burst of fire, and in an instant, it crossed hundreds of meters of space and fell into the running brigade of cavalry, blowing it up and down. A cannonball ran into a cavalry head-on with howling, piercing him and the horse under his hips, and knocking out a huge hole. The cannonball was cast unabated, and it passed through several horses in succession before finally losing power and slamming on the ground.

And the cannonball that lost its power lying quietly in the crater was already contaminated with a large amount of flesh and blood, and there were some grass clippings stuck on it.

The power of the first round of shelling was remarkable. Although only a few shells successfully hit the target, it still relied on the powerful power to kill nearly a hundred cavalry (mainly because the cavalry used a dense formation when running, and one death was one death). The remaining knights hurriedly strangled the truce horse, watching the broken corpses all over the place behind them in horror.

"What kind of weapon is this?" They shouted in fear, looking at each other, but no one could give a reasonable answer. The barbarians who migrated here from the far north only knew about the Winsters. High-quality goods and shrewd merchants on these levels ~lightnovelpub.net~ At the beginning of the war, I also thought that this would be a very smooth robbery. With their powerful cavalry force, there is no one on the peninsula of Vadassia. The country’s infantry can stop it, and as long as it can defeat the Winster’s army, it is not a dream to enter their territory to rob.

However, who could have imagined that the Kingdom of Winster, which is known for its wealth among the barbarians, would have such a mysterious and terrifying weapon. Although they had heard of the deeds that swept over half of the peninsula a few years ago, after a few years of peace, it must be It will not be as strong as before. They thought so, but they didn't expect the reality to give them a heavy slap in the face.

"What should we do? Shall we continue to charge?"

They asked in confusion, but then the higher one among them gritted his teeth and drove the horse under the hip to run forward again. Although he didn't say it clearly, his actions had already given the answer. After that, the remaining cavalry They also rushed up, but this time they learned well and knew how to use a loose formation.

Seeing that the enemy’s cavalry was in a loose formation, the artillery that had only had time to fire a round of fire did not continue to fire. Instead, it was handed over to the infantry deployed in the position. The soldiers looked at the cavalry closer and closer, and fought one after another. Prepare, raise the muzzle slightly, aim at the enemy, and only wait for them to enter the firing range, then you can shoot.
