As the two sides approached, the speed of the heavy cavalry became faster and faster, and the rumble of the horses' hooves was like thunder, as if it was beating the ogre's heart.
This heavy sound of horse hooves made the ogres realize something was wrong. The ogres who had never seen heavy cavalry did not realize how terrifying these guys covered in armor were at first.
The strong ogres dared to confront the Jingbei Army's cavalry, which only had men in armor and horses naked, and was mainly composed of dwarf horses from the north. This time, they didn't pay much attention to the opponent's cavalry at first.
It's just that when this group of heavy cavalry really got close, their biological instincts made them a little scared. It seemed like this thing couldn't be cut off forcefully.
But it was too late to say anything at this time. Richard and the Red Flame Knights who were rushing at the front were only two to three hundred steps away from the ogre forward, followed by armored heavy cavalry and elite centaurs.
At this time, even if the commander of the ogre forward found a problem, he had no way to adjust it and had no choice but to bite the bullet.
"Buzz..."
The first thing that caused casualties to the ogres was not the cavalry that was already close at hand, but dozens of giant arrows that were speeding towards them.
After the low string sound, the bear-hunting crossbows collectively unleashed their power, and dozens of arrows pierced into the ogre array.
The power of this giant crossbow cannot be stopped by a few layers of iron armor or rough skin. It instantly brought up more than ten blood flowers in the ogre array. Even if these orcs were hit by the giant arrow, they would not die.
He immediately fell to the ground and lost the ability to fight.
"kill!"
The first people who came into contact with Richard were the kobolds who were placed at the front by the ogres. These little things holding wooden sticks and being as tall as the knees of the red flame horse could not act as a delay at all. The people led by Richard
The Red Flame Knights and the heavily armored knights didn't even make any extra moves. They galloped all the way and carved a bloody path among the kobolds.
If there are enough kobolds and they are placed densely enough, they may be able to delay Richard after paying huge casualties, but obviously this group of ogres has only scratched the surface of war.
,
After Grugesh's death, their knowledge has dropped a bit, and their battle arrangements have become more complicated. At least Grugesh will not be so careless when facing a new type of soldier, nor will he look down upon humans.
army,
And several chiefs just sent people to greet them carelessly, without even doing the most basic test of using kobold cannon fodder alone.
The cavalry led by Richard quickly passed through the long and thin front line of the kobolds. Those ridiculous pointed wooden sticks in the hands of the kobolds could hardly even leave a trace on the war horse armor.
"Prepare!"
The ogres on the opposite side also stopped and reorganized their formation. From a human perspective, the formation was actually quite messy, but the ogres were pretty good at being able to do this. They had a relatively weak military sense and were strong.
His body is enough for ogres to bully most human armies.
The ogre in the front row held up an iron spear more than three meters long and came out like a spear array. Although the height of the spear head was not consistent at the front and back, thanks to the ogre's physique, the barrels of these spears had to be made.
They are a bit thicker, and even though their formation is not as strict as the human army, they still pose a huge threat to the charging heavy cavalry.
In fact, generally speaking, even heavy cavalry should not easily charge into a spear formation like this. After all, the price of armored heavy cavalry is too high, and it is not worth it to rush in and exchange a few.
Even though the ogre population is small, Richard is not willing to let this precious little thing in his hand suffer too much loss.
If Richard dared to use the roughest and fastest method to charge head-on, he would naturally have a certain degree of confidence in controlling casualties within a certain range.
"Roar!"
The distance between the two sides is getting closer and closer. Through the visors, the ferocious faces of the ogres in the front row can be clearly seen. It can even be seen that many of the ogres in the front row have sweat flowing from their foreheads.
The pressure of the heavy cavalry is really too strong. The closer you get, the more you can feel this heavy pressure, especially the Red Flame Knights at the front, all of whom have red flame horses.
This kind of horse is taller than the horses of the Western Region, with a shoulder height of more than two meters. The ogre elites, who are generally about two meters tall, look a little smaller in front of them.
In addition, these war horses are covered with heavy armor and carry human knights who are made of iron. Even a fool knows the weight of this collision.
The ogre can only dispel the fear in his heart by roaring. That is to say, the ogre is naturally brave and has a strong will to fight. Otherwise, with the ogre's training level, he would have been in trouble long ago when faced with such a super-standard heavy cavalry charge.
It's time for instability to appear.
"boom!"
Richard, who was charging forward, ignited his fighting spirit with all his strength when he was about to approach the ogre spear formation. The burning sun fighting spirit in his body was indeed more suitable for activating the Fire God Sword than the fighting spirit generated by Qing Qi Guiding Art.
The Vulcan Sword in his hand exploded directly under the stimulation of the fierce sun's fighting spirit. The gorgeous flames quickly covered the sword body, and at least three feet of sword light was emitted from the tip of the sword.
The members of the Red Flame Knights following Richard also ignited their fighting spirit. Including five champion knights such as Elena and Zebul, nearly a hundred fighting spirits ignited at the same time, like a huge meteorite fireball that hit the enemy.
The ogre army.
"How can it be!"
In the distance, Wuha and several ogre chiefs were watching the collision between the forward and the human cavalry.
Seeing the large-scale fighting spirit igniting in front of this human cavalry, except for Wuha, the other ogre chiefs were stunned. Nearly a hundred knights charged together. The original Jingbei Army did not have this skill.
Compared with the confidence of the other three ogre chiefs at the beginning, Wuha has always been a little worried. After all, he can successfully sneak attack among several major tribes. No matter what he thinks, the human who killed Lord Grugesh will definitely
It’s not a mediocre skill. It can’t be explained by luck alone.
But now that he saw nearly a hundred knights appearing on the other side, he felt a little more relieved. If this was the opponent's trump card, then even if the losses were larger, Wuha was confident that he could repel this human army with the cooperation of the four major tribes.
Now the ogres are not what they used to be. Although they are divided into four tribes, there are at least 20,000 young ogre warriors who can fight. There are dozens of ogre warriors who are more capable than human knights. The ogres who have just entered the chieftain level
There are also several human demons, and now when facing foreign enemies, they can barely resist the foreign enemies and unite as one. There is no way that tens of thousands of human troops and hundreds of knights can defeat them.
"Be prepared to send four or four more thousand-man troops to support. The vanguard army may not be able to withstand it."
"good!"
Wuha's proposal also received support from several other ogre chiefs. Among the four thousand vanguards, there were only a dozen ogre warriors and an ogre commander who had just stepped into the chief level.
Facing the charge of hundreds of human knights, followed by nearly a thousand cavalry and more infantry, it would be difficult for them to withstand it if reinforcements were not sent.
"boom!!"
Just when several ogre chiefs were still planning to send reinforcements, the iron cavalry had already stepped into the formation...
