Pendor Empire In Other Worlds

Vol 3 Chapter 47: Cavalry battle (1)

Four o'clock in the afternoon on the 14th.

The cavalry unit led by Lothar finally stopped the Qatari cavalry on the west side of the noble coalition, about seven kilometers away, which was moving towards the West Muller.

For Lothar, this is a relatively ideal combat position.

Because of the distrust of each other.

The noble coalition led by the Viscount Husey was actually out of touch with this cavalry that was also a coalition in name but not under his command.

The communication between the two parties can only be carried out through the passing of the scouts.

Therefore, when Lothar ordered the hired scouts to hunt down the two scouts, the cavalry had not been able to get the information from the offseason for an hour.

This also means that the aristocratic coalition forces running around by Simuller will not be able to contact the cavalry units that are still advancing along the old intelligence in a short time.

Although the cavalry has a wide battlefield, at least at the beginning of the battle, and at the most critical moment, Lothar no longer has to worry about the possible reinforcements of the coalition forces.

In fact, this ‘intercepted’ statement is not very accurate.

It is more accurate to say that it is an ‘encounter’ between two cavalry than an ‘interception’ on an unobstructed plain.

After all, the rapid advance of two or three hundred cavalrymen can't be much smaller than a ten times infantry march.

When Lothar's reconnaissance map began to appear dense red spots.

The enemy scouts, who did not need to be hunted by the hired scouts, returned the message, and the louder and louder rumblings had already passed the news of the appearance of an unknown cavalry to the Qatari cavalry who were marching along the road.

The distance of a little more than one kilometer, although still outside the visual observation range of each other, is too close for the two cavalry.

It was close enough to make the commander of the Qatari cavalry, Kailaf Trigny, doubt the other party's intention.

When he cursed the laziness of the scout, while determined to strengthen training, he ordered the troops to speed up and try to evade.

The awareness of the unknown cavalry's movement around the front made him more and more sure that the opponent was bad.

"To the southeast, prepare to meet the enemy!"

Just like when he gave the acceleration order ten seconds ago, the order to prepare for battle was passed to all the soldiers through the mouth of the messenger.

As the chief commander of the largest cavalry unit in the Principality, Kailaf, who was recruited by Zaimeng as a wandering noble of "other country", has his own arrogance and self-confidence.

Since the other party ignored his kindness, he didn't need to avoid anyone's challenge.

Amidst the series of horses neighing, "唏聿聿...", the cavalry who had not fully raised their speed once again strangled their horses.

Then, under the command of their superiors, they formed four linear arrays, facing the direction of the sound of horseshoes.

One second, two seconds, three seconds...

Ten seconds later, the first Lothar cavalry leaped over the low **** and appeared in front of the Qatari cavalry who were waiting.

More than ten seconds later, more than two hundred cavalrymen all crossed the hillside and lined up at a distance of more than 800 meters, facing the Qatari cavalry.

"what?!"

As Kailaf exclaimed, he also saw the lieutenant who was flying with the red-bottomed black dragon flag beside him exclaiming in a similarly surprised tone.

"General, it looks like a cavalry led by Lothar."

"It should be," Kailaf put down the telescope in his hand, looked at the blue cloak of Fieldsway's breastplate in the distance, and replied in a deep voice.

"I heard that Baron Lothar was a hidden son arranged by other countries. Now it seems that the rumors are true.

But I didn't expect that the forces behind him could not only provide so many plate armors, but even the horses could be transported in silently. "

"Then what shall we do next? Although the opponent has the same number as us, most of them are heavy cavalry in man and horse armor. Frontal confrontation seems to be detrimental to us."

"Don't worry too much, just fight him." Kailaf waved his hand and said confidently.

For this man who had served as a cavalry commander in an empire, the cavalry of the Principality of Perth had hardly anything to make him admire.

Whether it's the old knights of the Principality, or the new Qatar cavalry, or the seemingly well-equipped Lothar cavalry in front of you.

What's more, his equipment is not very bad.

Although there are fewer heavy cavalry equipped with plate armor, there are only forty people, but the others are at least a chain armor.

In order to satisfy Kailaf's requirements for the cavalry, Zaimeng gave blood to the forces behind him.

Just as Kailaf wanted to say the last sentence, "The cavalry is not equipped to be effective" to boost morale.

On the other side, after easing the rapid breathing in order to hurry, the Lothar's group facing the Qatari cavalry moved.

It was not a frontal impact, but while guarding the Qatari cavalry, while slowly moving to his right hillside.

"Ugh?!"

Kailaf screamed again, lowered the conversation and followed the order.

"Stay in formation and follow me."

After speaking, he also moved slowly toward the hillside.

Compared with the puzzlement of other generals, the experienced Kailaf saw the intention of the Lothar cavalry at a glance.

Seize favorable terrain.

Cavalry is a very terrain-oriented unit.

The reason is that speed is an indispensable element for cavalry to exert its combat power which is several times higher than that of infantry.

Cavalry that has lost speed is inferior to ordinary infantry.

The terrain, or obstacles in the environment, is an important factor restricting the speed of the cavalry.

In the battle of a small group of cavalry, it is too advantageous to occupy a high **** and strike down ~www.wuxiaspot.com~.

Therefore, when the Lothar cavalry made an action to seize the favorable terrain, Kailaf immediately put away his contempt.

Similarly, when the Qatari cavalry was also moving towards the hillside, Lothar, who commanded his cavalry, also realized that the opponent was not easy.

Fighting for favorable terrain with Lothar is the most correct choice for the Qatari cavalry.

If it were a general cavalry general, it would probably be anxious to directly charge when Lothar's army moved.

But at a distance of 800 meters, the figures in the distance can only be seen roughly, and it takes at least a minute for the cavalry to speed up and charge.

One minute was enough for Lothar to adjust his formation and initiate a countercharge.

Don't forget, although the small **** where Lothar's cavalry jumped is short, it is also a relatively favorable terrain.

When the enemy's charge enters the ascending period, it will encounter the most powerful blow of the Lothar Cavalry who uses the terrain to shorten the impact distance.

On the contrary, Lothar will also receive the same treatment if he initiates the charge first.

Perhaps at the peak of their momentum, they could meet the enemy cavalry who started not long ago and put more pressure on the front row.

But then, the rear team, whose momentum fell into decline, had to face the rapidly rising momentum of the enemy.

Therefore Lothar needs to occupy more favorable terrain in order to launch a more fierce charge.

And once the opponent chooses to retreat and open the distance during this period, Lothar will directly lead the troops to charge.

Don't look at the fact that Kailaf was able to quickly adjust the formation during the march, but that was because the cavalry was originally marching in a way that is easy to change.

It took enough time for Lothar to kick the cavalry out of the battlefield to re-adjust to the attack formation from retreat.
