In order to boost morale, Horn directly ignited his fighting spirit and slashed at the ogre in front of him with his sword.
Faced with the oncoming sword, the ogre warrior subconsciously raised the thigh-thick wooden stake in his hand to resist.
Unfortunately, the already sharp long sword was even more indestructible with the blessing of Horn's fighting spirit. The wooden stake held by the ogre was easily split open by Horn's long sword. Then the long sword's power remained unabated and it cut straight into the ogre.
The chest of the demon.
Before the ogre could scream in agony, he fell straight down, and red blood sprayed out from the edge of the sword, dyeing half of Horn's armor red.
Horn wiped the blood on his face nonchalantly, and killed several nearby ogres one after another. The peak knight who was only one step away from the great knight was absolutely crushed against ordinary ogres.
The advantages.
The First Flag Regiment is indeed the ace flag regiment in the Jingbei Army. Although the soldiers in the front row suffered heavy casualties in the first wave of collision, the soldiers in the back row stepped forward without hesitation and firmly held the battle line.
Hold on.
The First Banner Regiment has a full range of arms. In addition to spearmen, it is also specially equipped with warhammers who use blunt weapons.
Some stronger soldiers were specially selected to use war hammers. When surrounded by a few people, it was easier to cause damage to the thick-skinned ogres.
In addition to Horn and other knights who killed them directly with their might, many ogres also fell under the attack of the war hammer.
After Horn killed the ogres one after another, he soon attracted the attention of the ogre warriors.
An ogre warrior who looked stronger and even wore tattered metal armor rushed towards Horn, no longer letting Horn kill ordinary ogre warriors at will.
"Dang!"
Horn's long sword made a heart-breaking sound when it collided with the metal mace.
A huge force came from the hilt of the sword, causing Horn's jaw to go numb.
However, Horn is worthy of being a peak knight who is about to enter the Grand Knight level. The first collision was about the same as the Ogre Warrior in terms of strength. Although he did not take any advantage, he was firmly rooted in the original position.
He didn't even take a step back.
The biggest advantage of the Ogre Warrior is the absolute advantage in strength. In the battle with Horn, there is no advantage in strength. In terms of skills alone, the Ogre Fighting Horse cannot keep up with Horn.
In the ensuing confrontation, Horn quickly suppressed the ogre warrior with his superb swordsmanship, and also added several serious wounds to the ogre warrior.
If another knight-level commander could come to help him at this time, Horn would be confident that he could directly kill the ogre warriors in front of him in a short time.
Unfortunately, Horn did not wait for the support of his comrades. Instead, a scream broke Horn's fantasy.
A knight-level captain died tragically under the mace of the ogre warrior.
There are two guys who are suspected of being ogre warriors nearby and they are approaching the battlefield on Horn's side.
"No, there are too many ogre warriors."
There was no time to grieve for the death of his subordinates in battle, and Horn was already feeling frightened.
According to common sense, there are at most five or six ogre warriors among the five hundred ogre warriors, and now almost all of his commanders are restrained by the ogre warriors.
A conservative estimate is that there are at least ten ogre warriors on the battlefield now, almost as many as the number of knights in the First Flag Regiment. In a one-on-one battle,
It is difficult for human knights to suppress the ogre warriors. Among the knights of the First Flag Regiment, except for Horn himself, almost everyone else has difficulty in contending with an ogre warrior alone.
There was no time to continue paying attention to the situation of others. As expected, the two approaching ogres were also ogre warriors. Horn soon fell into the dilemma of being attacked by three ogre warriors.
Almost all the knights of the flag regiment had nothing to do with themselves. It was difficult for ordinary soldiers to withstand the attack of hordes of ogres on their own. Only some quasi-knight-level officers organized the soldiers to resist with difficulty.
Originally, the Jingbei Army still had a numerical advantage. If seven or eight people could cooperate to besiege an ogre, they could barely sustain it. However, this time there were not only ogres with a combat strength of 500 quasi-knights, but also thousands of cannon fodder.
of kobolds.
If these dog-headed people with sharp teeth and sharp mouths, armed with sharp wooden sticks and lightly polished stone spears, appeared alone, the Jingbei Army would certainly be able to teach them to be dogs in minutes.
But attacking together with the ogres worked wonders. Although it was difficult for them to directly kill the Jingbei Army soldiers, they could greatly interfere with the formation of the Jingbei Army soldiers in the melee. There were even some kobolds in groups.
Push down the Jingbei Army soldiers.
Marquis Wade in the distance naturally saw what happened to the First Flag Regiment, and he did not expect that the proportion of ogre warriors among this group of ogre warriors would be so high.
This is not to blame for the scouts and sword eagle knights. Apart from being a little stronger, these ogre warriors don't look much different from ordinary ogres from a distance. Perhaps you can tell the difference by looking closely.
However, the scouts of the Jingbei Army did not have the opportunity to observe closely. They usually made inferences based on proportions. However, it was obvious that there was a big problem with this inference, and the First Flag Regiment was directly in danger.
Fortunately, the remaining three flag regiments of the First Army were not far away. Marquis Wade ordered them to speed up their reinforcements to the First Flag Regiment.
Although these three flag regiments are slightly less powerful than the first flag regiment, they are definitely well-trained elites. There are more than a dozen knights in the three flag regiments. Waiting for them to join, the ogres and dog heads on the opposite side
It is definitely difficult for a mixed army of people to become arrogant.
This is also true.
When the remaining three flag regiments entered the battlefield, the Jingbei Army reversed the situation and quickly suppressed the ogres who had been arrogant just now.
These new forces quickly drove the ogre army back, leaving behind many corpses.
In absolute numbers, ants can kill an elephant, not to mention that the soldiers of the Jingbei Army are definitely not ants, at least they are a pack of hungry wolves.
Although the proportion of ogre warriors among ogres slightly surprised Marquis Wade, it was not beyond his control.
Although this ogre tribe has a population of more than 3,000, only half of them are truly capable of being quasi-knights. At this time, a third of them, accompanied by thousands of kobolds, have been completely suppressed by the first legion. Without support, they will fall.
Failure is a matter of time.
If they provide support, Marquis Wade will still have three legions in his hands.
Not to mention that there are cavalry from a flag regiment of Weilu roaming around the outside.
From the perspective of Marquis Wade, everything is under control.
All he has to consider is how to win the battle while minimizing casualties.
While Marquis Wade was thinking, the ogres who were fighting the First Legion finally couldn't resist. After losing several ogre warriors, there were some signs of retreat.
But the First Legion was unforgiving, clinging to the ogres in front of them and not giving them a chance to evacuate.
As if out of helplessness, nearly a thousand more ogres from the camp rushed out and rushed to the battlefield with tens of thousands of kobolds, as if they were forced to fight a decisive battle.
"Second and Third Legions attack!"
Marquis Wade decisively issued the order.
The second and third legions also quickly followed the orders and strode towards the battlefield.
What came out from the opposite side was already the full strength of the Ogres. They were absolutely not enough to face the two legions of the Jingbei Army. Moreover, Marquis Wade still had half of the legion's reserve team and a flag regiment's cavalry that had not participated in the battle.
It seems that there is no suspense in this battle.
