The roar of tens of thousands of horse hooves trampling the ground reverberated across the sky from far to near, causing birds and animals to scatter in shock and shaking the rocks.
Along with the deafening sound, it began to get louder and louder.
The overall picture of these two huge cavalry was gradually revealed in front of the condescending Lei Xiao and his party.
The dust is flying, and the shadows of people and horses are wandering.
These two billowing iron currents carrying turbulent weather are like two hurricanes, constantly sweeping toward each other at high speed.
When the earth trembled, the magnificent scene was like a huge wave rising from the ground, which was extremely astonishing.
Even the energy particles floating in the air are completely messed up, making it impossible for people to perceive them.
"Nearly 40,000 people gathered on the battlefield, which is equivalent to the combat power of more than five fifth-level experts. In this environment, if you want to keenly sense the subtle changes in energy and then figure out the enemy's movements,
I’m afraid not even Knotweed and Hongye can do it easily.”
"On the battlefield, everything is unknown and unpredictable, which is also the most dangerous part. After all, this is not like looking back at all the classic wars from the perspective of God, where everything has been settled."
While feeling the shocking momentum, Lei Xiao thought to himself: "The ongoing war is like playing secret chess. If you want to gain the upper hand, in addition to careful layout, you also need to predict the enemy's moves at all times."
Only by taking action can we hope to win.”
Lei Xiao, who nodded in thought and narrowed his eyes, took further notice.
Against the background of the wind and sand, although at first glance, these two galloping cavalry appear to be extremely chaotic, they are actually very organized.
On the prince's side, the two cavalry regiments were divided into four parts: the front army, the middle army, the rear army, and the two wings.
Judging from the equipment, the former army is the most elite and the smallest heavy cavalry.
These soldiers were wearing black heavy armor or brown heavy armor, and in their hands were all metal lances about 5 meters long. Even their mounts were equipped with thick horse armor. They looked like mobile fortresses and were almost impossible to find.
No flaws.
The Chinese Army is an assault cavalry wearing medium plate armor.
The lances of these assault cavalry are all about three meters in length, and they are all equipped with metal shields and broadswords. They are obviously a force that combines charging and close combat.
The rear army and the two wings are composed of the largest number of light cavalry, just like those in Vince's Cavalry Corps.
These light cavalry are either wearing gray light armor or white light armor. In addition to being equipped with lances between assault cavalry and heavy cavalry, they are also equipped with throwing spears and bows. They are obviously the most flexible in the camp.
It is also the most mobile force.
"Lord, the original Cold Flame Cavalry was not worthy of bows and arrows. It was not until many large-scale battles with the southern grassland countries in the past few years that they learned the tactics of cavalry and archery from their opponents. After all, their opponents' bows
Cavalry is an extremely famous existence among the human nations."
Bert took a step forward and said to Lei Xiao with some embarrassment: "To be honest, Lord, when I was young, I had a profound experience of the ferocity of those guys in the southern rainforest fortress."
"That's true. My subordinates have also fought with these guys who are accompanied by horses. In addition to ordinary horse archers, there is also a kind of jumping dragon cavalry, which is extremely difficult to deal with."
Ju Bai shook his head helplessly and echoed: "But later, after the royal family mobilized several elite magic knight troops and formulated relevant tactics, the situation was greatly alleviated."
Listening to the words of the two, Lei Xiao nodded thoughtfully.
I have heard of the prairie jumping dragon that Ju Bai mentioned before.
This is an extremely difficult to tame second-level monster. Its flexible body about two meters tall, thick hind legs and vestigial front claws are its most notable features.
As a second-level monster that can rival a squad of ordinary soldiers, its individual combat ability and endurance are obviously more than one level stronger than ordinary horses.
However, just like Sean and other subordinate mounts Sky Winged Dragon, taming the Warcraft is an extremely difficult process.
Not only does the strength of the cavalry itself need to be higher than that of the mount Warcraft, but the training and feeding costs are much higher than ordinary cavalry using horses.
Most importantly, due to the human race's fear of Warcraft since ancient times, riding a conspicuous Warcraft on the streets will undoubtedly cause a lot of inconvenience and trouble.
Therefore, even for most powerful knights, their mounts are the most convenient horses.
"In addition to ordinary horses, there are some mutated horses whose strength can often reach the level of first-order three stars or more, or even the first-order peak level, and are relatively easy to tame. It is logical that these rare horses have become elite cavalry. The favorite of the powerful soldiers and nobles."
Lei Xiao looked at the two rolling torrents getting closer and closer at the top of the mountain, and continued to think: "It is a pity that mutated horses cannot be bred, so they cannot be fielded on a large scale."
"These many reasons come together, and ultimately the cavalry's mounts are still ordinary horses."
"Having a large-scale cavalry force has been my long-cherished wish, so I already know almost all the common sense in this area."
Thinking of this, Lei Xiao's eyes moved and focused on the cavalry camp of the second prince's force in the west.
I saw that the second prince's power was similar to that of the eldest prince. They were both in the standard charge formation of the front, middle, rear and two wings, but the configuration was different.
The largest number of light cavalry were arranged in the front and rear corps and on both wings, while assault cavalry and heavy cavalry could be seen in the center corps.
Moreover, the core position of the Second Prince's Central Army has always been shrouded in fog, making it difficult for people to see the specific structure.
"Lord, it seems that the Second Prince's faction is obviously hiding something, and that's why they used the blinding spell."
Orange Bai smoothed a strand of hair that was scattered in front of her fair forehead behind her ears and frowned.
"That's true."
Ariel nodded, frowned slightly, and sighed softly: "Lord, if you compare your eldest brother to a brave warrior, then the second brother is a cunning magician.
, it seems that the army under his command also perfectly fits his style,"
"It's kind of interesting. It just corresponds to the professions of these two people."
Looking at the cavalry army of the second prince rolling in, he asked casually: "What about the fourth son of your king's family?"
"Back to my lord, just as my subordinate once said, my Fourth Brother is probably the most mysterious figure in the palace besides Uncle Wu and the White Knight."
Ariel's eyebrows were almost twisted together, and she bowed and responded: "She is a few years older than her subordinates, and for some reasons that even her subordinates don't know, she grew up outside the royal capital when she was a child.
He grew up in an unknown place, and was taken back to the palace by his father until he reached adulthood."
"As expected of a guy who has almost no support from the nobles but can still compete with the other two princes. He is indeed extremely mysterious."
Lei Xiao raised his eyebrows and focused his attention on the top of the mountain again.
At this time, the two rushing torrents were already very close to the precarious camp.
Feeling the arrival of their respective reinforcements, the attackers and defenders, who had become increasingly sluggish, became excited again, with no one willing to take a step back.
"Lord, the speed of these two groups of cavalry has begun to slow down."
Bert narrowed his old eyes and said slowly: "After a long journey, the war horses are very tired. If you choose to charge directly at this time, without the blessing of extreme speed, the strength of the cavalry will undoubtedly be greatly reduced, and even before they can
If you rush forward, most of the opponent's light cavalry standing still will be wiped out with bows and arrows."
"It's quite an interesting scene."
Lei Xiao's eyes moved, wandering around the camp at the foot of the mountain and the two cavalry armies on the surrounding plains.
In addition to the fact that the camp was still fighting in full swing, at both ends of the plain not far away, two huge groups of cavalry had completely stopped and were restoring their formations to their best condition.
That scene that had nothing to do with him was like those infantry soldiers inside and outside the camp, an extra third party.
Just when Lei Xiao saw this.
Xiaoya, Nanxing, Nanyue and Hongye, who had completed their tasks, appeared in front of him.
Judging from the slightly frightened expression on Xiaoya's fair face, it was obvious that she had not yet fully recovered from her nervousness.
"You have worked hard on the mission. Let's go back and have a good rest."
He casually touched Xiaoya's head and signaled Nanxing Nanyue to accompany the girl back to the territory. Lei Xiao continued to watch every move on the battlefield.
You know, this is undoubtedly the first time for Lei Xiao to see such a large-scale cavalry duel.
"Lord, the current situation is very clear."
The uncle stroked his short gray beard and said: "While both sides are resting, they are looking for opportunities to first eliminate the other remaining enemy forces in the camp's offensive and defensive battle."
"Judging from the long journey between the two, I'm afraid the mount won't recover so quickly, right?"
Feeling the increasingly intense murderous atmosphere at the foot of the mountain, Ariel rested her chin with one hand and thought thoughtfully.
"Not necessarily. A cavalry of this size must have special mobile units riding mutated horses."
Under the long orange-white eyelashes, a pair of extremely sharp starry eyes were scanning back and forth between the two camps: "Whoever can successfully eliminate the remaining opponents' troops inside and outside the camp will definitely boost our own morale, so if you don't
As I expected, the initial rescue operation should begin soon."
Sure enough, the orange and white voice had just finished speaking.
In the eldest prince's camp, a group of cavalry detached from the Chinese army took advantage of the second prince's camp to still adjust their formation, bypassing the light cavalry of the front army and galloping towards the camp.
Noticing this scene, Lei Xiao narrowed his eyes slightly and observed carefully.
This group of cavalry was about the size of a large group and marched in a rhombus formation.
It can be clearly seen that on the periphery of the team are assault cavalry armed with spears and square shields, while in the middle are a group of magicians wearing robes.
At the same time, a looming wave of magic power rippled out from this seemingly small team.
"Lord, you are a magic knight!"
Chaoyan's starry eyes lit up, and he blurted out: "The number is about five elite squadrons, and there are also many third-level experts among them, and they are performing large-scale group magic!"
"Chaoyan is right. The group magic performed by these five elite magic knight squadrons is comparable to that of five fourth-level senior experts working together. If this considerable force is allowed to bombard the camp, it is already at the end of its treacherous state.
The defenders may be able to tear through the defense line in an instant and cause heavy losses to the opponent."
Ariel looked at the giant six-pointed star formation that gradually rose up in the Magic Knight camp, and exclaimed: "I didn't expect that the traditional nobles in this area would actually hide such secret weapons. Even the people under Uncle Wu's command
The royal magic army only has a large group of magic knights."
"In order to win this war, it seems that the traditional nobles have taken out all the personal guards at the bottom of the box. There were many second-level elite cavalry in Vince's cavalry regiment before, but now they are all engaged in the offensive and defensive battle of the camp.
It’s all a loss.”
Lei Xiao raised his eyebrows and said with a faint smile: "However, it is not surprising to have so many magic knights. The great prince's power headed by Songluo City was once the core of the Loren Kingdom, and some of this ancient tradition will always be passed down.
The legacy of the Kingdom of Knights.”
"Listen to what the lord said, it is indeed true."
Bai Wei, who had been paying close attention to the battle situation, shook her snow-white tail and said: "If you think about it carefully, Uncle Randall, the leader of the mercenary group, once mentioned that his family was once the magic power of the Loren Kingdom in this area.
Where is the knight family?"
After a pause, Bai Wei seemed to have remembered something, and then said with great anticipation: "By the way, the secret of the ruins of King Loren's capital has not been revealed yet, which really makes people curious."
"As long as we successfully overcome this difficulty, we will begin to comprehensively investigate the clues about the descendants of the Loren royal family."
Lei Xiao smiled faintly, but still stared at the thousand-man team with the powerful prince.
I saw the magic knights galloping around, and the giant magic circle suspended above their heads became increasingly dense.
Moreover, there was only less than a kilometer away from the tragic camp where the fire was rising.
"Lord, there has been no movement from Brother Wang's forces so far. Have they given up on rescuing the defenders of the camp?"
Looking at the magic knights, who were very close to the camp, Ariel couldn't help but asked with doubts on her face: "If they want to abandon the camp, why are they coming here non-stop?"
"Abandoning one's camp directly will definitely cause a huge blow to morale. It is impossible for the other party's commander to do such a stupid thing."
Lei Xiao rubbed his chin and responded with raised eyebrows: "It is not difficult to see from this that the Second Prince's forces are obviously planning some unknown method."
Not long after Lei Xiao finished speaking.
On the battlefield, something unexpected happened.
