Veterans who had been on the battlefield knew that defeat was not a slow process, but something that happened in an instant.
It was not necessary to kill the enemy one by one to obtain victory. In fact, as long as the enemy's organization was destroyed, defeat would naturally occur.
This was what it meant to be defeated like a landslide.
Experienced generals knew that once the front line was defeated, sending reinforcements seemed correct, but it was actually the stupidest decision.
This was because the defeated front line would break the formation of the reinforcements, resulting in an avalanche of deaths.
This was also why feigning defeat to lure the enemy was rarely seen in reality.
Unless one had enough confidence in their commanding ability and the soldiers under their command, ordinary generals would not dare to use such a strategy. This was because if they were not careful, feigning defeat would become a true defeat.
Thus, when Colin saw the troll infantry's movements, he almost laughed out loud.
That Prince Okamoto seemed to be a smart person. How did he become so stupid on the battlefield?
This was actually nothing strange.
Zhao Kuo was also well-versed in military books. When it came to the art of war, even Lian Po admitted defeat. Before Ma Su was defeated, he was also extremely intelligent and was highly regarded by Zhuge Liang.
But the real battlefield was a cruel demon-revealing mirror. Whether one was a man or a ghost, whether one was talented or not, they would all know once they tried.
At this time, Colin even wondered if his original plan had been too cautious.
The current situation on the battlefield was not out of Colin's expectations. The wolf cavalry that had fled back had completely broken the formation of the infantry.
Even if many troll generals saw the problem, it was too late to stop the chaos from happening.
This was the perfect embodiment of a general being useless and exhausting an army to death.
Seeing this situation, Colin, who was charging at the front, immediately raised the [Blade of Judgement] above his head and urged his warhorse to gallop. At the same time, he roared:
"Kill, kill!"
The eight hundred heavy cavalry behind him also roared in unison, "Kill, kill, kill …"
Roars brimming with killing intent spread throughout the army, shaking the surroundings and shooting straight into the clouds. For a time, it even covered the rumbling of horse hooves.
The ferocious heavy cavalry of the Black Cavalry were like fast-moving steel monsters. They swarmed forward and charged towards the formation of the Giant Demon Army.
The scattered wolf riders seemed to have become the vanguard of the Black Cavalry, helping them break the formation of the troll army.
In their panic, the troll infantry at the front were unable to form a stable shield formation. The archers at the back fired a few arrows, but they were unable to deal much damage to the heavy cavalry.
Before the enemy had even arrived, the troll army was already terrified. Many troll soldiers simply fled with the wolf riders.
As panic spread, the Trolls' vanguard completely lost their formation.
Rumble!
Following a resounding boom, the heavy cavalry of the Black Cavalry had already charged into the formation of the troll army along with their horses.
Countless troll soldiers were sent flying like puppets by the force of the impact, which weighed several tons.
The sound of bones breaking could be heard, and blood splattered everywhere, making the scene particularly horrifying.
The Black Cavalry's heavy cavalry were like ferocious monsters of steel. They stabbed viciously into the flanks of the troll army and quickly advanced deeper into the forest.
Rows of troll soldiers were trampled like scarecrows by the heavy cavalry. Blood splattered everywhere as the troll soldiers either had their bones broken or their stomachs punctured.
Everywhere the Black Cavalry passed, only a bloody and terrifying mess was left behind. Such a scene made people feel as if they had arrived in hell.
It was as if the scene from a year ago was repeated once again. Black Cavalry used a bloody storm to firmly engrave this nightmarish memory in the troll's mind.
Colin had also personally proven that numbers were not the key to victory on the battlefield.
Eight hundred cavalrymen could indeed defeat an army of one hundred thousand.
At this point, the battle had already lost all suspense.
The Black Cavalry's light cavalry immediately swarmed through the wide gap created by the heavy cavalry, chasing after the troll soldiers who were already focused on fleeing.
The sound of hooves, battle cries, screams, and wails … everything within a dozen kilometers was covered in the sonata of war.
At this point, there was no troll general who could stop the collapse of the troll army.
Anything that stood in the way of the Black Cavalry's iron hooves would be drowned by this black flood.
Prince Okamoto stared blankly at all of this, as if he had been completely struck dumb.
He could not understand how this battle had suddenly turned out like this.
An army of one hundred thousand, an army of one hundred thousand!
How could they be so weak in front of the Black Cavalry, so easily defeated?
At this moment, Prince Okamoto suddenly understood why his father had been so pathetic in front of Marquis García.
It seemed that he really could not be blamed.
The Black Cavalry …
Could it be that he was destined to be a nightmare that the troll would never be able to escape?
At this moment, all of Prince Okamoto's lofty aspirations, glory, and wealth seemed to have left him.
Disheartened, he suddenly pulled out the longsword in his hand and was about to slash his own neck.
"Your Highness! You can't die yet! "The personal guard beside him snatched the sword from Prince Okamoto's hand and roared at the top of his lungs." Your Highness! You have always said that death is the release of a coward, and that enduring humiliation and seeking revenge is the decision of a hero! "
Prince Okamoto was stunned.
The screams by his ears seemed to have faded away, and the bloody scene before him became blurry.
At this moment, he recalled the scene of him groveling in front of the Duke Of St. Hilde and begging for peace in Chilly Winter.
Suddenly, Prince Okamoto felt relieved.
Yes, he had already knelt once.
So what if he knelt again?
Hence, Prince Okamoto threw away the longsword in his hand, adjusted his military uniform, and took the flag from the flag bearer. Then, he held his head high and looked in the direction of the Black Cavalry.
Unfortunately, the general's impassioned speech was unable to reverse the situation of the defeated troll army.
At this moment, the troll army was unable to organize any effective resistance. The Black Cavalry had already spread to the heart of the troll army.
In their despair, most of the troll soldiers only cared about fleeing, but how could they escape the cavalry's pursuit?
More troll soldiers knelt and surrendered, but they seemed to have forgotten how the Black Cavalry had treated the troll soldiers who surrendered.
However, to reduce unnecessary resistance, Colin still ordered for the troll captives to be taken in.
Leaving his subordinates to clean up the battlefield and clean up the mess, Colin led a team of personal guards in the direction of the troll commander's flag.
Without waiting for Colin to reach him, Prince Okamoto swiftly dismounted from his horse and walked briskly with the commander's flag in his hand.
Then, he suddenly threw the Commander's Flag to the ground and laid his entire body on it. His five limbs were prostrated on the ground, forming a "Mu" character.
He shouted loudly, "Great Viscount Angley, your most loyal servant greets you!"
