Three cavalry formations and more than ten thousand Kurut soldiers were easily destroyed by the roar of the magic crystal cannons.
"Boom!" The third round of cannon fire landed in the middle of the Kurut army. Alonso, who had no intention of conserving his ammunition, ordered the cannoneers to reload with magic explosive shells.
This round of explosions finally woke up the disoriented Kurut soldiers. They threw down their weapons and began to flee. No matter how hard the officers tried, they could not gather them together.
"They have mages!" A soldier pushed down the officer who tried to stop him from retreating and shouted hysterically.
"The German Empire has mages protecting them! You're sending us to our deaths! " Stepping over the officer on the ground, the fleeing soldier found a good excuse for his desertion without even turning his head back.
Unfortunately, the officer behind him did not have the chance to listen to his explanation, because the fleeing soldier stepped directly on the chest of the unlucky officer.
"Boom!" Amidst the fleeing crowd, explosions rang out one after another, cruel and cold.
Alonso looked at the black smoke rising from the plains in the distance. He reined in the reins of his warhorse and calculated the time to counterattack. This battle made him feel as if all the blood in his body was boiling.
"Stop the cannon fire!" After three rounds of magic explosive shells, Alonso stopped tapping his fingers on the hilt of his sword. He saw that the enemy was beginning to crumble, so he ordered them to stop wasting magic shells.
"Stop firing and wait for my order!" Alonso urged his horse to gallop towards the cavalry formation on the flank while he ordered the messenger beside him.
"Clang!" Coming to the front of the cavalry formation, Alonso drew his sword and raised it to the blue sky. His powerful voice drifted into the distance, "The German Empire is invincible! William's army is invincible! "
"The German Empire is invincible! William's army is invincible! "Beside him, nearly five thousand knights in black armor broke the silence. They raised the spears in their hands, the tip of the spears reflecting a dazzling light under the sun.
"Attack!" Alonso pulled his horse's head and slashed forward with his sword. He squeezed the horse's belly with his legs and jumped down the gentle slope ahead.
"Kill!" Nearly five thousand cavalrymen roared at the same time and followed behind their lord, urging their horses forward.
This victory came too easily, and the destructive explosion stimulated every soldier of the empire. They now firmly believed that the person they were following was undefeatable. They believed that Alonso could bring them victory.
The horse's hooves hit the ground, and its black armor rose and fell with the movement of the warhorse. Just as the soldiers of the Kurut Kingdom were about to collapse, Alonso led five thousand cavalrymen into their ranks.
No one organized a defensive line to stop the German Empire's cavalry from breaking through. The power that the cavalry displayed when chasing down the rebels could only be described as unparalleled.
"Hah!" Alonso swept past a group of disorderly soldiers, cutting down a Kuruth soldier with a single slash. He hacked at the flesh of the Kuruth soldiers with his sword, ending a man's life with his own hands.
The cavalrymen behind him were all covered in blood as they trampled and crushed one Kurut soldier after another. This was a massacre, a one-sided massacre that had long been predestined.
"Kneel and surrender, and you will be spared!" Alonso, who was already in the midst of the chaos of the Kuruth Kingdom, suddenly tightened his reins and raised his warhorse's front hooves into the air as he shouted with his sword raised high.
The German Empire's cavalrymen continued to charge past their lord and shouted, "Kneel and surrender, and you will be spared!"
The Kuruth soldiers, who were running around like headless flies, seemed to have found a life-saving straw. They immediately knelt on the ground and watched in horror as the enemy cavalrymen, covered in blood, swept past them.
"Clack, clack." Alonso rode his warhorse and slowly passed by the Kuruth soldiers who were kneeling on the ground. Finally, he let his warhorse's hooves step on the flag of Seru Khan.
He had won this battle. Moreover, he had won without any suspense. He had won with ease. He had the magic crystal cannons, so it was only natural that he would win.
He lowered his head and looked at a Kuruth general who was also kneeling on the ground and looking up at him. He waited for him to speak first.
Sure enough, the general took two steps forward on his knees and forced an awkward smile on his face. He begged, "I was wrong! On account of the fact that we were once vassals of the Empire … Let me go. "
"I'm willing to pay the ransom! I'm willing to pay ten thousand gold coins as long as you spare my life! " Seeing Alonso remain silent, the terrified Seru Khan looked up at the black-armoured cavalrymen around him in a sorry state. The more he spoke, the more hysterical he became.
"These are your last words?" Alonso looked down at the enemy commander who was curled up on the ground in front of him and asked coldly, "Tell that to the souls of the Blackstone Citadel!"
"You can't kill me! I'm the lord of the Kuruth Kingdom! If you kill me, Seru Khan will hang you for sure! They won't let you go! "The general looked at Alonso in despair as he raised his sword and shouted crazily.
"Pfft!" Alonso swung his arm and the sword in his hand flew into the enemy's chest. The great force penetrated the armored body and nailed him to the ground.
Seeing the black-armoured cavalrymen who were covered in blood gathering around him, Alonso pulled on the reins and looked at the corpses on the ground. He slowly said, "You talk too much!"
On the other side, a general of the William family was already on horseback outside Larma Citadel. The troops he brought with him had bypassed Seru Khan's main forces and killed their way to Larma Citadel.
"We have to take Larma as soon as possible. We don't know if our troops can hold on on the battlefield … So we have to win here quickly!" Riding on his warhorse, the general of the William family pointed at the walls of Larma Citadel with his horsewhip.
"We didn't bring many men, so we can only rely on the magic crystal cannons to attack the city." The adjutant of the general of the William family, Corea, said with some concern, "I don't know if the magic crystal cannons we brought will do much damage to the walls."
"Order the soldiers to cook! Prepare the cannoneers to attack! After an hour of rest, immediately begin the attack! " The general of the William family pulled on the reins of his warhorse and retreated back to his cavalry formation without looking back.
"Send someone to persuade them to surrender! If they are willing to hand over Larma Citadel, give them a chance to live! "The general of the William family added another order after returning to his formation.
