On the European battlefield, the Holy Crusaders led by Douglas were temporarily defeated.
Although Douglas died, it did not mean that the Holy Crusaders completely lost their ability to resist.
Although the Holy Crusaders experienced a disastrous defeat, their spirit was not defeated.
To them, the Longyan Army without weapons, equipment and support was like a toothless tiger, not scary at all.
But soon something happened that shocked them.
The now impoverished Long Yan Army actually launched an attack with infantry.
As a result, the most powerful French cavalry of the Holy Crusaders were defeated by the Dragon Flame Army in the process of chasing these Dragon Flame Army, and only a small part of them even escaped.
The current leader of the Holy Crusaders is also French and is Douglas's lieutenant general.
Among these Holy Crusaders, the French troops had the largest number, and the number of other troops was too small.
Although their struggle had a certain impact on the Holy Crusaders, the Longyan Army quickly advanced.
But in the end it was the French general who stabilized the situation and prevented the Holy Crusaders from causing chaos.
Of course, the reason why he was able to do this was because the Catholic Pope issued an order at a critical moment.
For the Pope, the battle against Prussia was very important.
This determined their struggle for Roman orthodoxy between Catholicism and Protestantism.
Thomas, the new general of the Holy Crusaders, fell into deep melancholy. He felt a deep sense of powerlessness when facing the Longyan Army.
Logically speaking, this Longyan Army should no longer have such fighting ability.
In Thomas's understanding, an army can fight because they have enough supplies to support them in continuing to fight.
But now, the Longyan Army does not have any supplies in Hanover.
It is still winter, let alone the replenishment of weapons and ammunition, even the most basic food cannot be guaranteed.
The soldiers of the Long Yan Army still maintain very strong combat capabilities.
This can be seen from this attack.
But this is not what makes Thomas the most powerless. The Long Yan Army led by Ling Chen does not have a cavalry team.
The previous confrontation was with the Prussian cavalry. Fight against them.
But in this attack, the Longyan Army killed all their cavalry without any help from the cavalry. Even the horses were killed a lot by the Longyan Army.
If this continues, the troops that originally had the advantage over them will be evened out by the Long Yan Army bit by bit.
But Thomas couldn't think of any good way.
He summoned the generals of his various armies to discuss countermeasures.
"This is the situation. The specific situation depends on the situation. You can discuss it." Thomas took a puff of cigarette and sighed.
Everyone fell silent when they saw the report of the Long Yan Army's attack.
In this small attack, they lost more than thirty horses and even more weapons.
You should know that there are countless resources that need to be invested in cultivating a cavalry.
But now, a team of forty cavalrymen lost more than thirty people at once.
Although this kind of loss is not that much in terms of the total number of troops, it is still a very small attack.
Moreover, the Longyan Army still uses foot combat and cavalry tactics.
