Chapter 378: broken ride
It is certainly not a good idea for infantry to counter-charge when facing heavy cavalry.
But in this daze, Panda's method is at least a method.
The transmigrators with immortality are not afraid of death, they are just frightened by the cavalry that rolls like a wall.
Panda took the lead, and many people reacted immediately and followed without a word. Then more and more people followed, and even the casters followed--anyway, now that the range of the spells was suppressed, they had to get close to exert the power of their spells.
As a result, a strange scene appeared on the ground - facing the heavily armed cavalry galloping towards them, a group of infantrymen who had no advantage over them, and the equipment was messy, not only did not panic or retreat, but instead greeted them. Go up, let out a roar without showing weakness, and collide with them head-on!
The Thracian cavalry had rich experience and quickly judged the appropriate distance. After they had walked about twenty paces forward, they slammed into their horses again and issued orders to charge.
At the same time, they put down the spears they were holding before, and pointed the spears slightly downwards, aiming at the traversers who were also rushing over.
With the final acceleration of the war horse, the sound of the horse's hooves became more intense, and the vibration of the earth became more and more intense.
But the traversers didn't hesitate or flinch, still under the leadership of the panda, they rushed towards them viciously.
About ten seconds later, the panda who rushed in front was the first to encounter the Thracian heavy cavalry.
An icy spear pierced his chest with a howling cold wind.
He didn't even have to think about it, the side of his body managed to dodge the shot in a tight shot, and at the same time the battle axe swung round and slashed out, hitting the cavalry that was about to rush past him.
The sound of armor and body shattering sounded, and blood rushed into the air.
Because of the recoil of this blow, his body trembled slightly. Seeing that the spear stabbing from the other side was already in front of him, he couldn't twist his body to dodge.
At this moment, he was charging, and the cavalry was also charging. The speed between the two sides was extremely fast, and the spear tip of the spear was even faster than the flying arrow. And what he has to do is to move the flying arrow to the side during the time it takes the flying arrow to fly an arm's distance away.
This kind of thing is almost impossible to do, but he did it this time.
Although the force on the spear was extremely heavy, and it couldn't be pushed away much in a hurry, it finally slammed into the side of his shoulder and slid over, but for the panda, as long as it didn't get stabbed, there was no problem.
In an instant, he took his breath away, jumped up, and jumped onto the horse of the third cavalry.
The cavalry was concentratingly grasping the direction of the spear and launched a charge. It was too late to react. He was holding his head with both hands, twisting back and forth, and suddenly fell limply.
However, this is already the limit of pandas.
At the moment he killed the cavalry, the fourth spear had already pierced and was stabbing him in the back.
He felt as if he was hit hard by a big rock, he couldn't sit on the horse's back at all, and he was knocked out.
In the air, he reluctantly looked back, and saw that the traversers who were rushing in front were stumbled by the cavalry one by one. Fortunately, no one was killed for the time being.
Although the power of the heavy cavalry charge is huge, their spears are not very sharp. It is not so easy to kill the passers-by with one charge!
So he laughed.
The passers-by will not be beaten in vain. At that moment, at least a dozen war horses were overturned by the passers-by, and although many war horses were running, the knights on the horses had already fallen.
These things formed a large barricade, which greatly weakened the impact of the heavy cavalry behind. It won't be long before they can't move and form a melee situation.
If cavalry and infantry form a melee, it will be much easier!
For the traversers, the heavy cavalry who came roaring on high-headed horses is indeed difficult to deal with, but if they lose their speed, they are just heavy cavalry on horseback and swinging swords, so there is nothing to fear.
With a smile on the corner of his mouth, he fell heavily to the ground and fell several times before he stopped.
Without the slightest delay, he immediately got up, healed himself a little with divine power, and then rushed towards the battlefield in a hurry.
At this time, just as he expected, the second wave of charging traversers had already meleely fought with the same second wave of heavy cavalry.
On the watchtower of the military camp, the Thracian officer in charge of the watch frowned, his face sinking like water.
Although he had been prepared for the strength of this group of enemies, he was deeply shocked when he saw that this group of people could rely on flesh and blood to stop the charge of the heavy cavalry.
"Where did Mo Lai come from such a group of elites?" he said to himself, shaking his head repeatedly, "I haven't seen it before!"
The military situation was quickly passed on to Marquis Henry. Hearing the news that the heavy cavalry charge had been curbed, Marquis Henry, who had recently completed his role transition from marshal to butcher, was unmoved and ordered: "The heavy cavalry turns their horses and separates from left to right. , light cavalry support, longbowmen prepare."
With the sound of the bugle, the order was passed to the Thracian heavy cavalry who slaughtered with the passers-by.
So whenever possible, the heavy cavalry turned their horses around and wanted to separate from left and right to make way for the attack behind them.
Of course, the traversers wouldn't let them finish their work so easily, and they roared and wrapped around them, killing them in a ball.
They leap like flying, they shoot like lightning, and they are not afraid of death.
Faced with such an enemy, it was difficult for the heavy cavalry to complete the turn and evacuation orders. After about half a minute, the heavy cavalry that could successfully withdraw from the battlefield was not even half.
The remaining heavy cavalry had either been knocked down, or had to dismount due to the situation and could not retreat.
When they charged on horseback, it was difficult for the traversers to stop their attack, but when they dismounted and fought on foot, the situation was reversed for each other.
In a one-on-one situation, almost no one of them can stop the traversers who are the main battles such as pandas.
Before the heavy cavalry who had withdrawn from the battlefield returned to the barracks, no Thracians could stand in the fighting place. As long as they can't be evacuated, one counts as one, and they all become the dead souls of the passers-by.
This short and fierce battle, of course, also consumed a lot of the traversers, but there were a large number of clerics behind them, accompanied by the light of healing spells, and the traversers gasping for breath from the fierce battle. The injury disappeared quickly, and his physical strength recovered quickly. It only took a few seconds to almost fully recover the combat effectiveness.
They did not wait in place, but roared again and rushed towards the Thracian army camp.
They were greeted by countless sharp arrows like a torrential rain.
