Launching another charge would allow the First Army Corps and Marquis Wade to seize the opportunity to retreat and avoid total annihilation.
As long as Weiru rushes forward with his cavalry, the ogres will certainly not dare to pursue the first legion in a scattered formation.
Although they lacked military knowledge, they also knew that the impact of cavalry was powerful and needed to be taken seriously in formation.
Only when Weiru led the cavalry to charge did Marquis Wade have the opportunity to lead the remaining soldiers to break away from the battle in an orderly manner, minimizing the losses of this defeat.
"Rhea, are you afraid?"
Rhea is Weru's deputy and a good knight-level player. Although he is weaker than Weru, he is still a first-rate existence among the knights. He escaped unscathed in the first round of charge.
Hearing Weilu's question, Rhea's expression did not change at all, but he said slowly:
"For Lanster."
Rhea didn't have any extra words, he already expressed his determination in one sentence.
Weilu nodded,
Perhaps his words were not just asking Rhea, but also himself.
If you charge forward again, it may be an exaggeration to say that you will die ten times but there will be no life, but there will definitely be more than one life after nine deaths.
Are you afraid of death?
Of course I'm afraid, there are a few normal people who don't want to live.
Can I withdraw?
Of course not,
The glory of the Jingbei Army cavalry and the glory of the Lanster family did not allow Weilu to escape before the battle.
There can be Lansters who die in battle, but there can never be Lansters who run away from battle.
"Qiang!"
The long sword was raised high between his eyebrows.
"Qiang, Qiang, Qiang..."
Then there was the sound of weapons being unsheathed.
The cavalry who had just taken a short rest followed the general and raised their weapons again.
"kill!"
Weilu took the lead and rushed to the front of the team as an arrow.
Rhea and others followed closely behind, and the entire cavalry formed a cone-shaped formation with Weru as the sharp angle, and once again launched a charge towards the ogre's flank.
The rumble of horse hooves resounded across the battlefield again. Although the first round of charge suffered heavy losses,
However, the morale of the Jingbei Army's cavalry did not drop much.
On weekdays, these cavalrymen enjoy the best treatment. It can be said that they are proud soldiers who have been fed with money and food for a long time.
The grassroots officers are filled with a large number of Lanster clansmen, and they are almost one of the most reliable forces of the Lanster family.
Morale will not be greatly affected by attrition,
The cavalry of the Jingbei Army are all elite soldiers who have fought in the war, so they naturally understand what this charge means.
Their expressions were solemn, like a group of desperate soldiers launching an attack that would not allow them to retreat.
The sound of horse hooves even encouraged the infantry of the Jingbei Army who were fighting and some who had retreated. Some officers of the Second and Third Army took the opportunity to gather a group of defeated troops to reorganize their formation.
They didn't dare to think about a counterattack. They tried to retreat in an orderly manner, instead of being wiped out from behind like a sheep in the humiliation of being herded away. This was their only goal.
Marquis Wade also took this opportunity to organize a small counterattack, stabilizing the slightly shaken front again.
Naturally, the ogres would not ignore such a loud noise from the cavalry charge.
It is even said that the cavalry of the Jingbei Army have always been the biggest threat to the ogres. After all, ordinary Jingbei Army infantry,
It would take at least ten people to form a formation to fight against an ogre warrior, and they would be at a disadvantage.
However, a high-speed charging cavalry has the opportunity to cause fatal damage to the ogre warrior.
The ogres on the periphery began to form a simple formation. Although their formation was loose, their huge racial advantages could offset this shortcoming.
The sharp wooden stakes pointed outwards, forming the first death barrier for the Jingbei Army cavalry.
Under the pressure of the Jingbei Army cavalry, the ogres had to temporarily give up their pursuit of the 2nd and 3rd legions.
If they continue to pursue without taking precautions at this time, I am afraid that Weilu will wake up laughing in his dreams and directly expose his back to the charging cavalry. No matter how strong the ogre is, he will be directly overwhelmed by the cavalry.
Unfortunately, the ogre was not stupid. The pursuit quickly stopped and he began to guard against the cavalry attack.
The defeated soldiers finally escaped with their lives for the time being. Some officers had gathered many of the defeated soldiers and slowly withdrew from the battlefield in an organized manner.
"Pass my order and the whole army will take turns to cover the retreat and retreat to Fort Hel for consolidation!"
Marquis Wade, who had just commanded a counterattack, saw the ogres' offensive slowing down and immediately took the opportunity to issue a retreat order.
"Your Majesty the Marquis, what should Master Weiru do?"
The questioner was Angus, the commander of the First Legion. After receiving support from Marquis Wade, the two of them fought against an ogre chief.
Although he had some upper hand, it was still difficult to actually kill the opponent, and he could only barely push the opponent back.
As a senior officer, Angus could naturally see what their retreat at this time meant to Weilu and the cavalry he led, and couldn't help but question them.
"Angus! Weilu is my son. He is a member of Lanster! He is also a soldier of the Jingbei Army."
Marquis Wade paused slightly when he said this.
"If others die, my son will die too."
Marquis Wade still had a stern look on his face,
"Execute the order, withdraw!"
"yes!"
Sensing the determination in Marquis Wade's tone, Angus did not dare to say any more.
Just looking up, I could faintly see that the corner of Marquis Wade's mouth had been bitten with traces of blood.
…
"boom"
The Jingbei Army cavalry crashed into the ogre line again,
Although the number of Jingbei troops in this charge was reduced, they were more decisive and fierce. They drove their horses straight into the enemy without any intention of evading, and there was a fierceness that changed their name.
Wei Lu took the lead and rushed into the formation. In front of him, an ogre raised the wooden stake in his hand and tried to sweep Wei Lu off his horse.
Upon seeing this, Weiru directly activated his fighting spirit. He first cut off the incoming wooden stake with one sword, and then used his horse speed to decapitate the ogre warrior in front of him with one sword, and continued to charge forward without any pause.
The following cavalry also rushed into the ogre formation one after another, and some lances stabbed the ogre through.
There were also ogre warriors who directly caught the lances and lifted the Jingbei Army cavalry off their horses. For a moment, people roared and horses neighed on the battlefield, and red and white blood spattered everywhere.
"Rush! Go forward! Go straight out and don't stop!"
Weilu understood the mission of himself and the cavalry,
Create pressure on the ogres and create conditions for the Jingbei Army to retreat.
Although you have the consciousness to die in battle, who is willing to die if you can live?
If you can directly penetrate the ogre's line, then those who rush out will still have a chance to survive.
As Weilu led the team to rush into the ogre formation from the flank,
The greatly reduced pressure of the First Army and the reserve force led by Marquis Wade began to retreat in an orderly manner, gradually breaking away from the battle and putting a distance between themselves and the ogres.
"Pity"
At this time, the two-headed ogre priest was a little weak and reluctantly looked up to observe the situation.
Obviously he was very unwilling to let Marquis Wade lead his army to retreat, but it was already difficult to do anything else.
Then the two-headed ogre priest muttered something to an ogre next to him.
Several ogres roared loudly at the same time, and several ogre chiefs who were about to pursue them turned back at the same time and attacked in the direction of the cavalry.
