"Ah!" Another heavy cavalryman from the Kingdom of Northland was shot down from his horse. When faced with the arrows, the Northland cavalrymen, who seemed to be very strong, finally began to suffer casualties. Anna, who had already lost 100 cavalrymen, made a rough calculation. This time, she knew that she would lose at least 200 cavalrymen if she wanted to get close to the enemies who were constantly shooting at her.
Two arrows hit Anna almost at the same time. These arrows were deflected by the arc of the armor, but Anna felt the powerful force that shook her heart.
She suppressed the uncomfortable feeling with great difficulty and whispered the thing that she wanted the most, "Victory!"
"Go to hell!" Almost at the same time, a surviving cannoneer from the German Empire aimed the magical crystal cannon that was originally used as a reserve at the Kingdom of Northland's heavy cavalrymen who were not far away.
"I hope you can withstand this! Northern barbarians! " After cursing loudly, he opened fire. Then, the magical crystal cannon began its performance.
Bang! The speed of the cannon did not seem to be very fast, and the sound of the cannon firing was not pleasant to the ears. All of a sudden, the battlefield became noisy. A cannonball hit the knight who was blocking its way and tore apart the pitiful creature who was in its way.
Then, after breaking the neck of the cavalryman from the Kingdom of Northland, the cannonball broke the cavalryman's body. Then, it flew behind the cavalryman, smashed the armor of another soldier, and pierced through the cavalryman's chest.
Then, with an unstoppable momentum, the cannonball continued to fly forward and drilled into the body of the third cavalryman, shattering his lungs. When the cavalryman spat out a mouthful of blood and fell from the back of his warhorse, a mist of blood had already spread around him.
At this time, another cannonball killed its way into the crowd. It was also in an unstoppable state. The cavalryman's blood splattered on the face of another cavalryman, and the other cavalryman's arm fell into the arms of his comrade behind him.
The new firepower began to reap the lives of countless Kingdom of Northland heavy cavalrymen. The Northland cavalrymen who were about to crash into the German Empire's camp fell one after another on their way forward.
The battlefield had once again turned into a massacre, but this time, it wasn't the heavy-armored cavalrymen of the Kingdom of Northland who were slaughtering their opponents. Instead, it was the Magical Crystal Cannons that were using even more terrifying shells.
"Crossbow!" The crossbowman turned his head and shouted hysterically at his companion. The enemy was already in front of him. He had to seize every second to fire the crossbow.
Beside him, several crossbow bolts were thrown at him.
The archer once again aimed his loaded crossbow at the Kingdom of Northland's heavy cavalry, who had been battered by the cannon fire. Without hesitation, he pulled the trigger. His crossbow bolts rushed towards the enemy opposite him, leaving a bloody mist on the enemy's body.
Anna felt her breathing becoming difficult. She saw the cavalrymen in front of her fall one by one, and the cavalrymen beside her were smashed into pieces in the rain of blood.
Perhaps, she had already suffered more than 200 casualties? Perhaps, there were already 300 casualties? Anna didn't dare to look at how many cavalrymen were left. She only had one thought in her mind, and that was to rush into the enemy's camp as soon as possible.
In the past, she wanted to rush into the enemy's camp because she wanted to win again and again. She wanted to win a great victory that could stimulate her nerves. But this time, it was different. She wanted to rush into the enemy's camp because she knew that this was the only way she could survive.
What a ridiculous cause and effect, but Anna found that she couldn't laugh at all. She didn't know when the enemy in front of her had become invincible. Those cowardly soldiers of the Empire had become as tall as giants at this moment.
There seemed to be an invisible wall in her path. Those cavalrymen of the Kingdom of Northland who crashed into this wall would be smashed into pieces. No matter how brave and strong they were, they would become weak and insignificant in front of this impassable wall.
"When was the last time I felt so powerless?" Anna asked herself bitterly in her heart, but no one could give her an answer.
"For the Kingdom of Northland! Forward! " Using all her strength, Anna stood in the middle of the cavalry and shouted loudly to encourage the soldiers to move forward. This was probably the first time in many years that the Kingdom of Northland's army was beaten so badly by the Empire's army.
"Long live the Kingdom of Northland!" As if roaring in their hearts, the cavalrymen of the Kingdom of Northland cheered as if this was the only way they could muster up the courage to continue charging into the enemy's camp.
"It seems like we've won the battle." Alonso looked at Seru Khan's troops who were once again beaten to a pulp.
While he was speaking, almost half of Seru Khagan's Kuruth cavalry had fallen on the battlefield. This was a fatal blow to the cavalrymen because the remaining troops were completely unable to continue the attack.
The cavalrymen's formation was disrupted. They did not know how to face the corpses of their comrades and the countless amounts of blood. They had lost their fighting spirit and even the courage to continue charging forward.
Some soldiers wanted to turn their horses around and retreat. Some wanted to stop and wait for orders. Some had been shot through, while others were helplessly following their generals to continue the charge.
Anna wanted to stabilize her troops. She wanted to work harder towards victory. She rode on her Norland warhorse and kept moving closer to the enemy's camp.
"Closer! Closer! " Seeing that the target was almost within reach, she felt the warhorse under her suddenly lose its strength. Her whole body fell forward due to inertia. In front of her, the adjutant who had been protecting her fell to the ground with blood all over his body.
The cannonball penetrated the adjutant's body and hit the Northland warhorse under Anna. Anna did not have time to think. The moment she fell to the ground, she rolled on the ground, threw away the broken lance, and pulled out the sword at her waist.
She crashed into the body of the adjutant's warhorse and stood up unscathed. Then, she faced the soldiers of the German Empire who were close by and stepped forward. Her armour was dull and she began to pant. After losing the support of the Northland warhorse, the heavy armour became a burden to Anna. Her steps were a little shaky, and her body was no longer agile.
