This time, it was the Northeastern Legion from the Centaur Kingdom that came to chase the fortress.
They dispatched a total of about 50,000 centaur cavalry and 20,000 centaur archers and boldly came over in an attempt to besiege the fortress.
Speaking of which, their purpose was not to capture the large fortress that the empire had built for hundreds of years.
The centaur clan, or the orc clan, is often good at field battles but not good at sieges. This is recognized by the whole world.
The purpose of their coming here is just because they learned about the internal affairs in the empire, so they wanted to take the opportunity to come and take advantage of Qiu Feng.
In the eyes of their centaur army, this expedition should have been smooth sailing.
Those imperial fortresses guarded by mercenaries would never have the guts to challenge the heroic warriors of the Centaur clan. They should stick to the fortress as usual and wait for rescue.
This is a common thought among the Centaur clan, and the mercenaries usually do the same thing. Their role is to defend the fortress and prevent the Centaur from obtaining supplies at the border. As for the Centaur, they take the opportunity to invade the empire to fight the autumn wind.
or something, but there is nothing we can do about it.
This time, because they knew the internal affairs of the empire, the Centaur Northeastern Legion almost moved in full force. In addition to the 70,000 centaur soldiers who served as a containment force, the 300,000 centaur soldiers led by the legion general headed towards the interior of the empire.
Advance, trying to grab a quick break in the gap where the empire is too busy to take care of itself.
However, they did not know that not long ago, the fortress mercenaries they despised had been replaced by the conquest army of the Cult of Kosmos.
Moreover, one of their major purposes is to conduct a crusade against foreigners like them.
Start an unprecedented war!
"General Matos La, the troops we brought this time are too few, and we didn't bring any siege equipment."
The commander of the Centaur army frowned when he heard the inquiry from a young and handsome Centaur boy from behind.
However, considering the bloodline of the opponent's royal family and the background behind him, General Matos La still tried to slow down his tone and explained: "Little Prince Torre, you don't know something. Although these mercenaries are on the battlefield,
When they really fight, they are more difficult to deal with than the regular human army, but they are also more concerned about their lives. As long as we attack them actively, they will generally not come to trouble us."
"This is not a common practice. Back then, I only brought 30,000 cavalry, and spent a whole week with their more than 20,000 troops. None of those human cowards dared to go out of the city to fight with us.
war."
"That's it." The little prince nodded slowly, with a look of understanding.
"Humans are a cowardly race. His Royal Highness made a mistake when he compared them with the Werewolf Alliance, our kingdom's mortal enemy."
"An elite human soldier can defeat an ordinary werewolf, but ten thousand elite human soldiers are often defeated by a thousand ordinary werewolves." General Matos Ra continued to explain to the people around him:
"On the battlefield, any formations or strategies mentioned by humans are all bullshit. What can really determine the outcome of a war is the heroic heart of our soldiers."
"A thousand warriors who fear death are enough to outshine an army of one million people who are distracted."
General Matos Ra very much believed in this famous saying that was spread in the Centaur Steppes, and even regarded it as his own belief in running the army.
Under the command of General Matos Ra, there are the bravest warriors in the entire Centaur Kingdom.
This is also one of the reasons why the little prince followed Matos La.
Brave people will always be respected by the orcs.
While the two were talking, suddenly the iron gate of the fortress in front of them slowly opened in their direction.
This abnormality made Matos Ra frown and shouted: "Herald, let all brothers prepare for war. Could it be that the courage of those mercenaries suddenly came back?"
"General, it looks like something is going to happen?" the tiring little prince asked in a low voice.
"Don't worry, even if the opponent comes out in force, they can't do anything to us. In this plain, our centaur warriors will not be afraid of those infantry."
Just when Matos Ra finished speaking, his eyes suddenly shrank.
"They actually sent out cavalry? Impossible, how could those humans be willing to put their cavalry into this kind of war of attrition...and it was also a head-on battle!".
No matter how much Matos Ra didn't believe it, the fact was that, under the leadership of the knight hero Talis, 3,000 champion knights lined up in formation under the city wall.
It is clearly a one-line formation used in charge battles.
3,000 champion knights were arranged in three rows, with each row having a thousand champion knights. They moved in an orderly manner, and the military temperament revealed in every move made the Centaur side clearly feel a sense of uneasiness.
"General, those cavalry are the heavy cavalry that mankind is proud of." After seeing the strength of the opponent's troops clearly, the little prince Tuo Lei felt relieved and said with a smile as if he was watching a show.
However, what little Prince Tolei didn't expect was that General Matos La actually stared at the cavalry with a serious face, completely ignoring his own existence.
After watching it for a long time, General Matos Ra finally issued an order: "Send our most elite centaur warriors to confront the opponent, and use our centaur archers on both wings to harass them. These cavalry should all be the elite of the empire.
Heavy cavalry, for a big deal, we must hit them hard here! Otherwise, when our army besieges the giant city of the empire, they will definitely cause a lot of trouble!"
Knight Talis looked at the centaur formation in the distance, smiled broadly, and raised the holy sword.
This holy sword has a beautiful name - Angel Alliance!
When the holy sword pointed at the sky, fiercely! Holy light fell from the sky, falling on the champion knights and the archangels in the sky.
Donis smiled faintly from high in the sky, waved his hand, and his special Prayer Light skill came out, blessing his troops.
"What kind of magic is that? It's actually filled with such holy energy and solemnity." The little prince looked at the light and shadow in the sky and admired, while Matos La next to him paid more attention to those terrifying knights.
The action of coming down.
"We are the Sword of Order." Talis rode his horse and waved his sword loudly and shouted: "We are the Shield of Order."
"We! We are the knights of order. In the name of order, we trample the enemies in front of us!"
"Glory to us!"
"glory!"
The champion knights responded to Talis's call, drove their horses together, raised their knight's spears, and charged forward like the wind.
Facing this uniform charge, General Matos La's face turned truly pale for the first time.
He already had a premonition that his subordinates would suffer heavy casualties this time.
"It seems that this time we have met a real warrior in the human empire." General Matos Ra sighed in a low voice.
Although he could see that the opponent was quite powerful, the general still believed that the centaurs were the real kings of the plains and the masters of the cavalry.
Facing the charge of the champion knight, nearly 10,000 centaurs also faced the attack, wielding swords or spears.
The ones rushing at the front were the centaur warriors. They were all tall and had powerful hooves. Not only could they run high, but they were also powerful enough to wield terrifying weapons such as fangs and meteor hammers.
Coupled with the secret fighting skills they have trained themselves, these centaur warriors are not inferior to ordinary emperor-level experts in terms of individual strength. Even for emperor-level masters, in a fight, the winner or lose is unknown.
Taris laughed when he saw the centaur coming in. The Angel Alliance waved again, and a spell was immediately released on the horses of all the champion knights. Suddenly, the speed of the already extremely fast champion knights doubled again!
Before the Centaur archers on both wings could draw their bows and shoot, they found that their targets had left their ballistic range, causing them to feel palpitated.
"Kill!" Taris's Angel Alliance was extremely sharp. With one swing of its sword, a centaur warrior was cut in two from the shoulder.
Behind him, after just a moment of relief, the thousand champion knights in the first row also crashed into those centaur warriors.
The speed of the champion knights is really too fast, and their power is beyond the imagination of the centaurs.
The first batch of centaur warriors who came into contact with the champion knight were trampled under the champion knight's horse without any suspense at the moment of collision, and then became the ladder for them to advance.
The knights in the first row rushed over quickly without any hindrance, and then the knights in the second row followed suit, and then...the third row!
After the three rows of knights charged, the centaurs on the ground had already turned into mud-like existence, making the other centaurs change their expressions.
"I can't stop it... I can't stop it!" General Matos Ra shouted incredulously.
And the little prince Tuo Lei screamed: "General, is this the warrior you call? Tens of thousands of warriors were penetrated by the opponent in the formation in an instant, and then were wantonly killed. Oh my God, General, this is still
Centaur?"
"Ah~!" A centaur cavalry fiercely penetrated the chest of a champion knight with a spear. The champion knight did not show any hesitation, let alone any sound of pain. Instead, he broke the broken lance.
Putting it down, he drew out the knight's sword, and with a seemingly casual but extremely smooth stroke, he separated the centaur cavalry's head in the sky.
No fear of pain, no fear of death, fighting spirit and high morale until the moment of death.
Such champion knights and human cavalry are powerful enemies that these centaurs may never have encountered in their lifetime of fighting.
There were only three thousand cavalry, but they had already disrupted the formation of the entire Centaur army, and attracted the attention of all their generals and officers.
At this moment, in the sky that the centaurs ignored, Donis completed the magic in his hand, and with a thousand archangels, suddenly attacked the centaurs from the air!
