A loud explosion resounded throughout the valley, and the entire valley shook with the explosion.
The war horses were frightened, and the knights on the horses were knocked to the ground. They were wearing heavy armor and fell off the horses. Their whole bodies seemed to be falling apart. The war horses raised their iron hooves as big as bowls and struck fiercely.
Trample on the knight...
Some knights were next to those straw men. At the moment of the explosion, all the knights and horses flew into the air, and were blown to pieces, and the armor on their bodies was pushed further away...
These straw men were spread all over the valley avenue, and the huge earthquake after detonating shocked the magicians in the sky.
Even if they use explosive flames, they cannot have such power.
And those ignited scarecrows were like countless hell flames, rumbling and exploding.
The valley was suddenly shrouded in a cloud of dust and gunpowder smoke. An unlucky magician was hit in the buttocks by a heavy helmet that exploded because he did not fly high enough. He was almost knocked off the handle of his magic weapon, causing an aerial battle.
Accident.
The heavy cavalry in the mountain road were simply frightened by these sudden explosions. Those heavy cavalry who were not affected by the explosion fell off their horses one after another. Their ears were so shaken by the loud noise that they could not hear anything. They suddenly seemed to have entered.
To a world full of smoke and silence.
The heavy cavalrymen hiding in the forest were also frightened by the scene before them. Looking at the smoke-filled valley, everyone's legs and legs felt a little weak.
When Suldak led his team to charge down the hillside, there were only a few dozen people following him at first. By the time the soldiers of the heavy armored infantry regiment came to their senses, Suldak had already led a group of people to a few dozen people.
On the hillside ten meters away.
The large army hurriedly followed and ran desperately down. They had already hidden some road-blocking horses in the woods. At this time, they had to stop these heavy road-blocking horses at the exit of the valley. This valley is very wide and there are enough horse-blocking horses needed.
There are dozens…
The valley was already in chaos. Suldak led his men to stop the cavalry in the middle of the valley road. There were stumbling ropes between the big trees in the dense forest to prevent the cavalry from escaping from the woods.
Then they were at the edge of the battlefield, carrying long swords, and began to deal with the heavy cavalry who ran out of the mountain road.
At this time, no one can ride out from inside. As long as these heavy cavalry are not riding, the heavy armors on their bodies are not protective gear, but shackles that hinder their movement. The armor is too heavy, and the cavalry's legs are slightly weak.
In some loops, every step forward requires a huge amount of energy.
Unable to carry the knight's spear and move forward, they could only draw the knight's sword and fight with the heavy armored infantry...
Occasionally, one or two heavy cavalry would rush out on horseback. The two-headed ogre Gulitem would greet him with a big stick. The ogre would use his left hand with a fireball and his right hand with a big stick, and would run rampant on the battlefield.
Unstoppable.
Of course, although the squadron-level construct knights in the heavy cavalry regiment were also affected by the explosion, most of them survived on the battlefield with the solid defense of their magic pattern constructs. These construct knights also became the battlefield
The potential threats on the ground require Surdak to pay special attention to...
However, there are also many Constructed Swordsmen mixed in with the ordinary infantry on Surdak's side, and they are also looking for Constructed Knights hiding in the crowd on the opposite side.
On the battlefield, soldiers have begun to get used to the habit of cutting off heads to tally the results after a beheading.
After the heavy armored infantry soldiers here killed someone, they would cut off the head and hang it on the waist. The head was shaking back and forth on the waist, with blood dripping from it. The scene was extremely bloody.
With these cruel methods of the heavy armored infantry soldiers on the opposite side, the last line of defense in the hearts of the heavy cavalrymen was broken...
Many people wanted to escape from the battlefield and turn around and run back. Unfortunately, the straw men on the avenue were like reminders, and fireballs continued to fall from the sky.
Suldak is like a farmer standing in the vegetable garden, directing his men to harvest cabbages in the field.
Finally some heavy cavalry began to choose to surrender...
Capturing a living heavy cavalry will result in a higher merit score than a dead heavy cavalry. These heavy armored infantry warriors all have ropes on their bodies. They tie the hands and feet of the heavy cavalry together extremely roughly, and then use charcoal to paint on the opponent's armor.
Put your own number on it.
The escape route was blocked by the road-blocking horses, and they continued to be busy until dark. There was still fighting in some places on the battlefield...
The fighting will of these heavy cavalry is far more tenacious than Surdak expected.
…
Archmage Morrison and Archmage Harper have joined together. Two members of the mage group were wounded by arrows during this operation, and no one died in the battle.
What shocked the mages the most was the explosion in the valley. Even if two hundred fire magicians cast spells at the same time, they might not be able to create such a scene. Unless the fourth-level group fire magic 'Meteor Fire Rain' was deployed, maybe
Being able to overcome this explosion on the scene...
"Did you see how they arranged it?" Archmage Harper asked the people around him.
When setting up the battlefield, Surdak specially invited the magician group to participate. A magician who participated in the whole process stood up and explained:
"They seem to have buried a lot of oak barrels in the ground next to the straw man, not the metal rune plates that exploded with flames..."
"Well, the oak barrel is very heavy." Another mage said with certainty.
Archmage Harper then asked: "Have you obtained any samples?"
"Yes!" The magician nodded, took out a paper bag from his arms, and said, "These medicinal powders are taken out of the wooden barrel."
"Is it alchemy or potion?" Archmage Harper asked.
"It should be alchemy..." the magician said.
Archmage Harper glanced at the crowd, and then said: "Isn't Higgins a master alchemist? Show it to him and see what he says?"
Not long after, a middle-aged magician came over from the hillside not far away. He didn't even look at the powder, because he had a bottle in his hand, and said to Archmage Harper: "It contains charcoal.
Sulfur, um... is far less powerful than fire scale bombs, but a barrel of it can create an explosion bigger than the bursting flames!"
"..."
"I heard that Viscount Surdak has a sulfur mine..."
The magicians paused for a while, and then someone started to say: "No wonder the fireball technique is used to detonate it. It is just a simple fire scale bomb without a magic rune detonation device!"
The magician named Higgins nodded and said: "It's almost the same. The ingredients are much simpler than fire scale bullets..."
The magicians finally came to a conclusion: "It seems that Viscount Suldak also knows a great alchemist master..."
Everyone can still accept this conclusion.
…
The battle at the military camp has ended. Ned Mosby led the heavy armored infantry regiment to successfully occupy the entire military camp and captured nearly 3,000 Lord Army soldiers.
What awaits these warriors will be a long period of labor. When the battle in the Ganbu plane is over, they will be treated as prisoners of war, waiting for their families to take them back with a ransom.
If no family members come to rescue them with a ransom, they will continue to be rehabilitated in labor camps.
Of course, if these prisoners work hard enough, they can still regain their freedom before dying.
There are not many supplies in the garrison camp, so Surdak still needs to capture the town of Hatangada as soon as possible to solve the current problem of extreme shortage of various combat readiness supplies.
After all, there is an army of more than 20,000 people. Surdak and Aphrodite alone cannot transport so much supplies by traveling back and forth through the Void Gate.
Many green-scaled horses died in this battle, which made Surdak feel very distressed.
The dead green-scaled horse was cut into pieces on the spot and transported back to the garrison camp to be stewed in soup.
The injured war horses were also transported back to the camp, and Surdak planned to raise them. Even if they could not go to the battlefield, they would be sent to the pastures of the hills and mountains of the Bailin plane to be raised as stallions...
Only less than 600 blue-scale horses survived in this battle, and there were only more than 500 heavy cavalry prisoners. All fifty construct knight squadron leaders were killed, and all the captured magic pattern constructs were also killed. It was extremely damaged.
There are nearly 1,500 heavy cavalry whose intact corpses can still be found.
The rest were blown into pieces, and some of the heavy cavalry took advantage of the chaos to escape.
The heads of the heavy cavalry who refused to surrender were beheaded, and their bodies were hung on wooden crosses and erected on the hills outside Hatangada town.
Many people died in this battle, and the loot that could be obtained was not as much as expected.
The light cavalry in Hatangada Town did not take the opportunity to run out to support them. Unlike the heavy cavalry, they had thick armor and were not afraid of the mage group in the sky.
Until now, the 15,000 infantry soldiers of the Lord's Second Army are still on the road from Mukuso City to Hatangada Town...
