Chapter 12 12 Rush"This time, about two days." Chris pushed the water glass to the edge of Maine Castle , said to Vagron: "Here, our army can gather together, we can make up a total force of 1,000 people, and directly attack the castle to end the battle."
Vagron nodded, very sure Guarantee: "Our cavalry can complete the task, launch a surprise attack, and eliminate 200 enemies without any problem."
Then he pointed to the ferry city on the map, and said to Chris: "We With cannons, the capture of Ferry City can also be expected."
"The question now is, how can we stop the City Lord Berman of Ferry City from escaping with his fleet!" Vagron watched Map, frowned and said.
"It doesn't matter!" Chris clapped the table, gritted his teeth and said bitterly, "It doesn't matter if they run or not! I must fight Ferry City!"
"This is nothing It's a strategic issue, but a moral issue! I don't care about looting the people! If it were me, I would do the same! But harming the people is the original sin! It's the sin we must crusade!" His hands were clenched on the table. He raised his fist and said firmly.
"This subordinate understands!" Vagron heard Chris say that, his eyes shined, and immediately clenched his right hand and pressed it against his chest, loudly echoing, "This subordinate will go to assemble the troops!"
attack is carried out by must, but how to carry it out requires careful planning. Once Serris can't end the fight quickly, pressure from other sources will increase. The security of base camp Serris City could not be guaranteed.
The entire force in Chris's hands is actually not many. There are only 2,000 people in total. Among them, about 1,000 people are the garrison troops in Serris, which cannot be easily moved.
The mobility of these left-behind troops is low, and the speed of assembly will drag down the attack speed of the main force, so there is no essential difference in whether they are adjusted or not.
In the remaining troops, there are about 500 cavalry, and the remaining 500 are infantry. And now that Mayne has just been occupied, leaving 300 people may not be safe, so the only 700 troops Chris can deploy is a pitiful 700.
He must rely on these 700 people and Berman City Lord of Ferry City to do it quickly, otherwise the forces in other directions of Serris City may take the opportunity to attack Serris and take military action against Serris.
Once someone does attack Serris, the battle isn't a great victory, it's an utter defeat.
Trying to do it quickly with inferior soldiers seems to be a very impossible thing to achieve, but Chris has to do it.
"It's an adventure!" Vagron looked at the map and finally said to Chris, "If the opponent adopts the most correct harassment tactics, spreads the force and delays our march... We are defeated."
"If Ferry City gathers forces and fights us head-on, we who have artillery will win!" Chris gave another probability.
Chris is very optimistic about this gamble: "They have the advantage of force, and they don't know how strong our secret weapon is, why don't they fight us?"
" You lead 200 cavalry and 50 infantry to maintain law and order in Maine Castle! I will personally take 450 infantry and 300 cavalry to the ferry!" Chris set the policy of do it quickly and decided to lead his troops there.
Vagron stopped immediately after hearing this, and said, "My lord! You stay at Maine! Let me lead the troops!"
Chris didn't believe Vagron , but feel that they can better execute their own strategies. He waved his hand and said to Vagron: "You're also a great contribution to guarding the rear for me! Going to Ferry City at this time cannot be all about bravery, but also needs to make decisions on the fly. There are some decisions that you can't make, so I You must go in person!"
Hearing Chris say this, Vagron also knew the stakes of the matter, and nodded said, "Don't worry, my lord, I will definitely guard Maine and make sure that this place is safe!"
With Vagron guarding himself in the rear, Chris was relieved to lead the troops directly out of Maine.
Chris, with only cavalry, was advancing very fast, and 300 cavalry blew like a whirlwind across the eastern plains of Maine.
He handed over all the baggage and 20 cannons to Valgeron's adjutant Coria, and he led his cavalry to the east, and it took only one day and one night to reach Ferry City and Ferry City. Mayne's Junction.
Chris squinted as he watched the sun rise in the east. The sun at this moment is not good for his attack, but he can't wait any longer.
"Pass my order! Rest on the spot for 20 minutes! Then the whole army assembles! Attack the ferry!" Chris ordered the rest of the guards beside him to rest, then turned over and dismounted, looking for a Clean place to sit.
On the way, he saw all kinds of tragic Mayne. The houses left by the abducted civilians were empty, and the ground and the roadside were full of corpses and messy discarded utensils. clothing.
The fairly prosperous Mayne suddenly became a hell on earth, which made Chris's hatred for the City Lord of Ferry City rise to an explosive level.
Even the City Lord Ensel he killed did not make things so decisive - this Berman, speaking from a certain perspective, is really a "talent"!
After gulping down a few cold water from the water bag, Chris felt refreshed again. He stood up from the ground, turned over on the horse's back, pulled the reins of the war horse, pointed to the front and asked the soldiers who were looking at him loudly: "Have you rested yet?"
"Have you rested? !" Seeing their coach get on the horse, many cavalrymen also rode back to the horse long ago. They answered Chris's questions in loud voices, waiting for Chris' new orders.
"Follow me to kill the enemy!" Chris pulled the reins and made the warhorse spin in place, neighing and running towards the east.
"Kill the enemy!" Behind him, countless cavalrymen held high long lances, their legs were tucked into the belly of their horses, and their bright armors were facing the direction of the rising sun, killing them.
......
The sun just rose, and a soldier from Ferry City was yawning lazily. They were exhausted in the past few days, and it was the escort and transport of tens of thousands of civilians.
If you don't find a chance to be lazy, how can you be worthy of yourself? even more how, maybe in a few days, Mayne's side will call, when the time comes it's impossible to be lazy.
While covering his mouth with his hand, he subconsciously glanced at the western horizon still shrouded in darkness, then frowned involuntarily.
Squinting his eyes, this Ferry City soldier saw something squirming over the horizon.
Rubbing his sleepy eyes, he carefully stared at the end of the road again, this time he was more and more sure that there were cavalrymen approaching there!
"Hey! Hey! There's an enemy!" He kicked the companion beside him with his toes, and woke up another companion who had fallen asleep: "There's a call from Mayne!"
p>
"Impossible! They are at war with Serris, where did the soldiers come to trouble us?" On the watchtower, another soldier did not want to open his eyes, and replied in a dreamy voice.
"No! It's real cavalry!" As the cavalry got closer and closer, the awake Ferry City soldier was hysterical. He kept kicking his companions and shouted loudly. write.
The opponent finally couldn't bear it any longer. He turned over and got up from the ground. Holding his weapon, he looked towards the western horizon, which had already brightened up quite a bit. He found that a group of cavalry was really galloping in their direction.
There was no sleep for a moment, and the soldier who had just got up was also terrified. He didn't know that the same scene had already happened on the Serris border a few days ago.
"Quick! Quickly light the beacon!" Watching the cavalry rushing in, the soldiers of Ferry Port City anxiously and loudly ordered. He felt that the high platform under his feet was shaking, and he also felt that his legs were shaking with the vibration.
Just as they lit the beacon, the cavalry had walked around the city and passed the small beacon tower.
Chris didn't come to remove these small beacon towers. What he wanted was to attack the entire border area of Ferry City and force the opponent into Ferry City.
So he never thought about attacking these beacon towers at all, and he could just leave these small targets to the infantry behind him to take care of them.
What he has to do now is to quickly sweep the border of Ferry City, kill the soldiers and drive the civilians out of the village!
The fire beacon spread all the way, and the direction of Ferry City responded quickly. A group of infantry assembled, as if trying to block Chris's advance.
After all, the soldiers of Ferry City had just escorted tens of thousands of Mayne civilians back to their territory, and they had not had time to disperse.
A team of 200 people just crossed the road, blocking the path of Chris's cavalry.
After chasing and killing the scattered enemy troops, Chris, who had been killing all morning, didn't want to stop. He slightly reorganized his troops and immediately launched an attack.
The phalanx of infantry that didn't have enough bows and arrows was just mixed up with the cavalry that came over and turned into a huge grindstone of flesh and blood.
Chris rode on horseback and rushed into the enemy's phalanx, surrounded by guards.
His long sword swings in a circular arc, cutting down an enemy infantry passing by. The huge impact of the warhorse drove the sharp sword, and raised upwards from the bottom to open the thin armor, tearing open the flesh and blood inside.
Before the enemy army soldier collapsed with a scream, Chris's warhorse had already rammed the other two enemies and walked away without looking back.
The Serris cavalry who followed Chris slashed left and right, as if in a no-man's land. Their armor was splattered with blood, and in the eyes of the enemy they looked like demons from hell. The Knights following him form a giant meat grinder that devours the lives of surrounding enemies.
In just one breath, the arrows they formed cut a huge gap in the enemy's position. Then in the next second, more cavalry poured into the gap, like a virus spreading over the wound.
Picking up a long spear that stabbed at him, Chris split the long spear's gun with his backhand, then pierced the throat of the soldier with the long spear, and pulled it out in one go. The sword continued to move forward.
His lips were still slightly pale, his eyes were still as sharp as needles, and his not tall but well-proportioned body passed through the blood mist, with a press forward imposing manner. ►
