Chapter 243 - The End of the Eradication
Chapter 243: The End of the Eradication
“Woo –”
The horn sounded again. Kant used all his strength to blow the long horn.
The morale on the battlefield was high.
Even if the losses of Rhodoks’s infantrymen were increasing, with the help of the horn and flag, they were still gritting their teeth and resisting with high spirits. Even if the casualties were increasing and groups of Rhodoks’s skilled spear-wielders began to fall, the demons were still being dragged along, the Archers on both sides of the attack were having a hard time.
This was an opportunity that Rhodoks’s infantrymen had used their lives to create for the heavy cavalry!
Kant would not allow this opportunity to fly away.
As the horn sounded.
The heavy cavalry of Swadia behind them, who could no longer hold themselves back, immediately tapped their horses’ bellies with their legs and urged their horses to slowly run forward and speed up. They bypassed the curved path and directly arrived at the rear of the demon army.
However, a battle of 2,000 people was not as meticulous as a battle of tens of thousands of soldiers.
All kinds of front, rear, left and right wings were equipped with armies.
Moreover, these demons, who were known for their brutality and madness, did not have any so-called tactics or strategies.
Before the start of the battle, they would let the imps and demonized creatures charge forward as cannon fodder, and then the long-horned demons, who were the main force, would enter the battlefield. As for those who stayed behind to guard, other than the superior demons, whose intelligence was not weaker than that of humans, and who were even slightly superior, they could think of these inferior demons did not understand at all, much less know, and felt that it was unnecessary!
From the memories in their bloodlines, inferior humans were simply no match for the demons. This concept was very deep, and as it echoed in the minds of these demons, they could not help but feel a sense of contempt and arrogance.
The current battlefield also proved this point.
Even if the demon army also suffered a large number of losses.
However, the losses were all imps and demonized creatures. The true main force, the long-horned demons, had only lost less than 20 of them.
At this time, almost half of the human army had died. Close to 100 people had fallen to the ground. The originally thin spear formation was now completely distorted, and they were only relying on their hot blood to resist.
It was estimated that it would not be long before the formation was completely destroyed, and they would all be annihilated here!
“Rumble, Rumble, Rumble, Rumble…”
However, the heavy and rapid sound of horse hooves could be heard.
The entire karst cave was faintly reverberating with the sound of a flood. Even the sound of the subterranean river was covered, and the howls and howls of the demons were also covered.
The 188 Swadian heavy calvary appeared behind the demons like a flood.
They were fully armored, including their horses and men.
The thick and long lance was put down, parallel to the head of the Warhorse.
The awe-inspiring tip of the lance was aimed at the demons who had yet to react. Their faces were still filled with a ferocious smile due to the advantage of the battle. They charged forward fiercely!
The flood was unstoppable.
The charge of the heavy cavalry was equally unstoppable!
Even the Jackalan warriors who had once donned mail armor and wielded two-handed battle axes were completely annihilated outside the walls of Drondheim. Those who were charged by the heavy cavalry had lost the morale to continue fighting, the complete destruction of their physical and mental strength was enough to prove the terror of the charge of the heavy cavalry.
Now, the inferior demons created by the Abyss Demons had also witnessed the terrifying might of the heavy cavalry. All of them widened their eyes in disbelief and fear as they looked at the heavy cavalry that was getting closer and closer behind them.
“Woo –”
The sound of the horn appeared once again.
The long sound of the horn carried the momentum of charging forward bravely, inspiring the soldiers who heard the sound of the horn. In the depths of their souls, they extracted the desire for life, the desire for victory, and the desire for glory, turning into an incomparable morale!
“For Lord Kant!”
Bandake held the Teutonic sword in his hand, his entire body stained with dark red blood spatha.
The surrounding Rhodoks infantrymen charged forward bravely, recklessly using the wide shield and wide shield on their left arm to press down on the figures of the demons who wanted to scatter, using their own lives to firmly lock them in this space, they were just right for the Swadian heavy calvary, and were on a straight line of charge!
“For Lord Kant!”
The Swadian heavy calvary roared in rage as well.
The well-equipped warhorse galloped at high speed, increasing its own speed.
The horse armor and the heavy armor of the riders and riders transformed into inertia that could destroy everything in front of their speed, and it was augmented with the lance in their hands.
They charged into the demons!
“Puff Puff Puff Puff Puff Puff Puff Puff –”
The lance pierced into the flesh.
With the support of the Warhorse’s charge, even the skin and muscles of the demons could not withstand it.
Moreover, on the tip of the Lance, a faint golden light flickered,
the mage apprentices at the back had already grasped the distance and timing, and directly released the “Sharp Golden Blade”that could increase the sharpness of their weapons. It had even increased the destructive power of the Lance’s Charge!
The 188 Swadian heavy calvary were directly divided into two rows, whistling as they charged in.
The lance easily pierced through the body of the demon.
Whether it was the long-horned demon, the imp, or the demonized creature, as long as they dared to be in the charge path of the heavy cavalry, they would be directly pierced through by the lance, like skewers of meat, one after another, compared to the square formation of the lance from before, it had a defensive type of passive stabbing attack, and the number of demons that were pierced through was even more!
The instant charge had pierced through an extremely large number of demons, and even through charging and crashing, the armored warhorse relied on the inertia of its charge to not stop, and similarly trampled many imps and demonized creatures to death.
Piles and piles of demons were washed away.
However, the long-horned demons were still ferocious. Even if they suffered huge losses in an instant, they still retaliated violently.
The heavy cavalry in the front row who had drawn their swords were all pulled off their horses by the three-meter-tall long-horned demons with their huge claws. Their arms and legs were torn off, and their mouths were full of sharp teeth that were aimed at their heads. Even their necks were torn off.
Although the effect of the charge was very strong, the heavy cavalry still did not have the advantage in close combat.
“Follow me!”
Kant used his knight’s sword to cut off two of the long-horned demons’fingers.
Seeing that there were actually heavy cavalry around them that had been pulled off their horses and tragically turned into corpses under the long-horned demons’rampage, Kant could not help but grit his teeth and roar, “Regroup and continue to organize the charge!”
“Understood!” The heavy cavalry fought back with all their might. The kite-shaped shields in their hands blocked the charge, and their hands and swords slashed out, creating a bloody path.
However, although those long-horned demons and imps were brutal, they were not stupid and bloodthirsty fools.
They could already see the power of the Kant heavy cavalry’s charge.
In this wave of charge, close to 80 long-horned demons were killed, and more than 200 imps were destroyed. As for those demonized creatures, they had long been consumed in the battle against the infantrymen. There were only a dozen of them left, and they were completely useless.
If the heavy cavalry were to charge once more…
They would be finished!
The crazed eyes of the remaining long-horned demons also revealed their cunning and rationality. They came from the Abyss Hell, and they were all flesh and blood. They were not completely elemental like elemental creatures, and they had brains.
Therefore, they risked their lives to entangle the retreating bodies of the heavy cavalry.
As long as they fought in close combat, even these heavy cavalry would not be a match for the agile and terrifyingly strong long horned demons.
Not to mention those imps that held short iron pitchforks.
Flapping their wings, the pitchforks stabbed heavily into the bodies of the heavy cavalry or warhorse. Although due to their lack of strength, the weapons in their hands were also inferior cast iron and were unable to cause fatal injuries, the repeated strikes and stabs, they were always able to cause a small number of casualties, causing the heavy cavalry to be extremely annoyed and leave even more slowly.
“Bandake, stop these demons!”
Kant was similarly entangled. He repeatedly slashed out with his knight’s sword, forcing back a few restless imps. He could not help but shout angrily, “All cavalry, retreat immediately. This is a mandatory order!”
If this continued, even more heavy cavalry would be killed by those long horned demons.
It was better to be quick than to be in pain.
Quickly retreating and reorganizing the charge to completely destroy these demon troops was the result Kant wanted. Even if they lost part of the heavy cavalry, they had to complete it.
His orders received a perfect response.
Bandake gritted his teeth. Using the Teutonic Sword and round shield, he led Rhodoks’s infantrymen to tangle with the demons.
In addition to the crossbowmen and archers on both sides shooting accurately from time to time, the heavy cavalry finally left. They stood still on the square 50 meters away and quickly formed a charging formation.
However, at this time, there were only 126 heavy cavalry left.
A round of charging.
In a short moment.
Those long horned demons turned 62 valiant swadian heavy calvary into corpses.
These were all level-4 cavalry, the heavy cavalry with the best defense!
If the Sarrandian Horseman, Veruga Horseman, and Kujit Horseman were to come here, they would probably fall into close combat with the demons, and the final outcome would be even more tragic. After all, their warhorses did not have armor, and those long-horned demons and imps, as long as they took care of the warhorse without armor, they would be able to take care of these horsemen.
Without the warhorse, how could they be called cavalry? How could they launch the most powerful charge?
The answer was, of course, impossible.
But what Kant had was these swadian man-at-arms who were fully armored!
“Rumble, Rumble, Rumble, Rumble…”
The flood continued to appear.
The might of the charge swept through everything, once again crashing into the formation of the demons.
But this time, the charge directly pierced through the ranks of the demons, completely killing the long-horned demons that did not have much left. Stepping on the corpses that littered the ground, they formed a rumbling formation at the rear.
In the following battle, Rhodoks’s infantrymen, who numbered less than a hundred, would take care of it.
The remaining long-horned demons and imps were no longer a threat.
There were even demons running away.
The red-bottomed Golden Lion was releasing waves of invisible waves.
Faced with an unwinnable situation, the demons would not fight to the death after confirming their complete defeat. It was precisely because they had brains and thought that they would run away, afraid that their lives would be harvested in vain.
Moreover, their fear was magnified, and their morale was weakened to the extreme.
They did not even dare to retaliate.
The swishing sound continued to be heard.
The Ravenston Rangers and rangers with the least casualties, as well as Rhodoks’s snipers and crossbowmen, were still drawing their bows and shooting arrows, calling out the demons who had fled far away.
They were still trying to eradicate the root of the problem.
