The battlefield fell into a strange silence.
But such a silence made the soldiers of the Fire Velvet Army nervous, so that they could only hear their own breathing.
Finally, the Blood Cavalry moved!
The rumbling sound of the horses' hooves was like thunder in spring, which instantly made the wilderness boil.
Two cavalry teams of about 700 to 800 people began to speed up and rushed to the right rear wing of the Fire Velvet Army — this was the most chaotic position in the tentative attack just now.
"Shields up!"
"Spears, press forward!"
In the Fire Velvet Army, the orders of the officers rose one after another.
The shield soldiers and spear soldiers in the front row built a steel thorn with their flesh and blood, trying to block the charge of the Iron Cavalry in front of them.
However, many of them were already trembling in fear.
Being members of the Fire Velvet Army, these soldiers were definitely elites in the Eastern Region. At least the Fire Velvet Flowers on their chests were picked by themselves on the cliffs of 3,000 meters high.
Moreover, in order to prepare for the battle with the Blood Cavalry, the Fire Velvet Army specially practiced with the cavalry of the Eastern Region.
However, when they really faced the rolling iron hooves of the Blood Cavalry, they were shocked to find that compared with the Blood Cavalry, the cavalry of the Eastern Region was as docile as a flock of sheep.
In the trembling of the earth, the two cavalry teams of the Blood Cavalry had rushed to a certain distance, and all the cavalrymen began to draw their bows.
"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! "
Different from the previous tentative projectile shooting, this time the Blood Cavalry was close enough to aim and shoot directly.
For a time, the casualties of the Fire Velvet Army increased rapidly, especially the spear soldiers in the periphery. The shields in front of them were used to block the cavalry's attack, but could not provide them with complete protection. And in order to keep the battle formation neat, they could not avoid the arrows even if they saw them coming. They could only be shot down one by one like statues.
But after all, the Fire Velvet Army was the elite of the Eastern Region, so they did not riot in such a situation.
Moreover, under the orders of the officers, the archers in the rear of the position also began to fight back.
As a result, casualties began to appear in the Blood Cavalry. The cavalrymen were shot down from their horses, and the horses fell to the ground because of the arrows.
But the two cavalry teams did not slow down, nor did they distance themselves. They continued to approach the Fire Velvet Army, and at the same time, they continued to draw their bows and shoot.
This was a competition of courage.
Closer.
It was getting closer …
The shieldbearers at the outermost perimeter of the Fire Velvet Army had already tightened their muscles and were ready to receive the next impact.
But what they didn't expect was that the two teams of Bloody Cavalry turned around at the last moment.
The two cavalry formations seemed to have collided with a transparent barrier as they shot out along the tangential line.
Such a quick turn was a test of the horsemanship of the cavalry, as well as the coordination and discipline of the cavalry. The slightest mistake would cause the cavalry to crash into each other, which would lead to a series of tragic collisions.
The officers in the Fire Velvet Army who knew a little about cavalry tactics were all stunned. Obviously, they did not expect to see such a dazzling equestrian coordination on the battlefield.
But before they could recover from the shock, they saw another cavalry formation rushing out from the center of the blood cavalry army that was separated to both sides.
"Shield up, shield up!"
Hoarse roars echoed out from the Fire Velvet Army.
Because this time, it was a group of heavy cavalry!
Only then did they understand that the two teams of Bloody Cavalry were just feints, and this was the fatal blow!
The earth began to tremble in the rumbling sound of horse hooves. At this moment, it seemed that nothing could stop the heavy cavalry of the Bloody Cavalry!
Forward!
Forward again!
Accelerate!
Accelerate again!
No hesitation, no avoidance, even if there was a steel forest of spears in front of them.
This heavy cavalry team accelerated to the extreme terrifying speed and crashed into the enemy!
Boom!
In an instant, it seemed that the world had quieted down, and time had been paused.
The next moment, the cruelty continued.
One by one, the war horses were pierced by the spears, and the cavalrymen were knocked down one by one. But their men and war horses still crashed into the Fire Velvet Army's formation with terrifying inertia.
A ferocious gap immediately appeared in the originally intact position.
"Hiss …"
Count Brugen sucked in a cold breath.
Looking at these well-equipped, well-trained, and fearless heavy cavalry smashing into his army formation, he felt sorry for them. He couldn't help but curse, "Wastrels!"
At the same time, Count Brugan heaved a sigh of relief in his heart.
Although the Bloody Cavalry's heavy cavalry was quite terrifying, they were too few in number and didn't have enough follow-up support.
Although a huge gap had been torn in the Fire Velvet Army's right flank, Count Brugan knew that the other side could no longer expand their victory.
Next, as long as he calmly responded and commanded the soldiers to stabilize their position, they could plug this gap and stop the collapse from spreading.
But in the next moment, Count Brugan's eyes widened.
Because the heavy cavalry that he thought had no more strength continued to tear apart the Fire Velvet Army's right flank formation with an incomprehensible force.
They were a bunch of lunatics!
Count Brugan saw with his own eyes that a heavy cavalry with three spears stuck in his body continued to charge forward as if nothing had happened.
And the one whose armor was completely deformed by the collision of the shield, the one who fell heavily from the war horse, and the one whose arm was broken … they were all still fighting!
No one retreated, they were all moving forward!
Count Brugan couldn't understand. Didn't these people feel pain?
Weren't they afraid of death?
And what made Count Brugan even more inexplicably shocked was that this group of about five hundred heavy cavalry were all professionals!
Where did the Bloody Cavalry get so many professionals who weren't afraid of death?
Especially the three who were charging at the front, they seemed to be level five professionals!
Did Colin Angele pull all the high-level professionals in the Northern Frontier into the Bloody Cavalry?
Where did he get such great prestige to make so many masters die for him?
"Father-in-law, the right flank can't hold on any longer!"
The Earl Of Avon's anxious reminder brought Count Brugan back to his senses. He hurriedly suppressed the shock and fear in his heart and called for the messenger.
But before he could give the order, he suddenly felt the world around him spinning.
The next second, the whole world seemed to have turned dark.
The sky wasn't dark.
But in the eyes of the Earl Of Avon, the whole world seemed to have lost its color.
Because he watched with his own eyes as his father-in-law, the supreme commander of the Fire Velvet Army, was beheaded just like that, surrounded by his own army!
Dong dong …
It wasn't until the bloody head rolled a few meters on the ground that the Earl Of Avon realized that the person who did it was his Guardian Knight —
Fletcher!
