Rise In Calradia

Chapter 411: : Rhodocan Civil War (final)

"Finally, this war will come to an end!"

Before the formation of the two armies, King Graves couldn't help but let out a sigh of emotion.

At this time, the troops of both sides were no longer engaged in endless battles around the series of walls. After a negotiation between the two sides, the Royal Army abandoned the dilapidated walls and retreated for several miles, and the coalition forces did not care. These fortifications are no longer useful to them. They had a good night's rest, and then lined up in this open space on the way to Jerkala today, preparing for a big battle.

Originally, after the fierce battle for city defense, the coalition forces were far inferior to the Royal Army in terms of both the number of troops and the quality of the remaining troops. A decisive battle at this time would be completely unfavorable to the coalition forces. But the situation changed dramatically when the Swadian Gentile Count who had stolen the Rhodok lands stepped in. A full 1,000 soldiers were transferred to guard against the approaching Byron troops, in case the peony flag appeared on the battlefield of the decisive battle at their most critical moment. In this way, the gap between the two sides was narrowed, and the Royal Army and the Allied Forces finally found the opportunity for a decisive battle.

The troops of the two sides formed almost indistinguishable battle lines with nearly identical tactics. If it weren't for the mercenaries of the coalition forces, the equipment used by the soldiers on both sides could be said to be highly similar. The two sides are so similar that the soldiers on both sides cannot be distinguished without looking at the burqa. Both sides are also very careful before the battle begins. They know each other's methods very well, and they also know that the other party knows their own weaknesses. They must be careful enough to catch them. Chance.

This confrontation lasted for two full days. Although the soldiers of both sides lined up during the day, they would go back to rest at night, just like a grand performance. However, during this period, the commanders of both sides spent a lot of time looking for the opponent's flaws, and concentrated as many weapons, armor and arrows as possible to prepare.

In the end, the two sides stopped waiting, and raised their weapons and prepared to attack after preparing.

The troops of the coalition army were the first to dispatch. They saw the preparations made by the other side for them. This would definitely not be an easy attack, but they had no other way. This was the home field advantage of the Royal Army.

Three Rhodok phalanxes composed of 500 people began to advance slowly. They held up their shields and held spears to protect the crossbowmen and a few archers in the phalanx. On the flanks of the army, two light infantry phalanxes and mercenary troops also began to move forward steadily, protecting the flanks of the army. The coalition forces have a great advantage in cavalry. In the previous siege, these cavalry were only dispatched twice, and there was not much damage. Even because of the subsequent increase in the number of support, it reached 330 heavy cavalry and 250 light cavalry. The size of the cavalry has exceeded the number of cavalry of the Royal Army. Of course, the Royal Army also had another advantage. The coalition army abandoned a lot of siege equipment that was really inconvenient to carry in the process of advancing, and the Royal Army had already established a position, so the coalition army only had a few catapults, while the Royal Army had one. A whole row of large catapults and four gravity catapults.

So before the crossbowmen of the coalition army started shooting, heavy stones fell from the air and smashed into their formation. The bones of comrades-in-arms around me were smashed, whether it was cotton armor, chain armor or plate armor, it was no different from not wearing armor in front of these high-speed flying stones.

The troops on both sides kept approaching, and soon, the crossbowmen of the Kingdom Army came to the front of the team, raised the crossbows in their hands and started shooting.

The coalition forces suffered a lot of losses from the shooting of the catapults and crossbows. Dozens of people were killed or injured in such a short period of time. But even under such circumstances, they still held up their shields and forced the crossbowmen to move forward. Started to shoot at the enemy, while the infantry formed a new phalanx and continued to approach the opponent's line.

At this time, the cavalry of both sides had already started fighting on the flanks. The Sarande cavalry and mercenary cavalry from the desert and the Peony regiment directly charged through Rhodok's inexperienced young cavalry and light cavalry in the first charge. The formation made these southern cavalry who were not good at horseback riding into a mess, and won the battle without much effort. After killing his own flank, he did not withdraw until the spearmen and crossbowmen on the flank arrived in an emergency.

On the other wing, the heavy cavalry guards of Gelkala also fought with the enemy's cavalry, which was different from the other side. Most of the coalition cavalry on this side were mercenary cavalry and other light cavalry, and the Royal Army was here. After winning, he chased the opponent all the way, but was so seduced by the opponent that he forgot to seize the opportunity to attack the opponent's flank.

After the battle between the cavalry on both sides, the infantry lines of the two sides finally collided. The slightly superior Royal Army divided the infantry into five phalanxes, and used three of them to hold the enemy's phalanx. After that, the remaining two The first began to circle towards the opponent's flank intending to surround them. At this time, the flanking mercenary cavalry played an important role. Hundreds of cavalry rushed directly to one of the flanking phalanxes. Cavalry and spears collided, and horses knocked over shields and soldiers. A large number of cavalry rushed into the infantry. In the phalanx, they were thrown off their horses by three rows of long spears. Many cavalry had to dismount in front of the formation, and then rushed into the gap in the phalanx with short weapons, hitting the opponent's shield with their bodies. The phalanx was forced to stop in a high-loss but necessary way, and it did not get out of the predicament until the flanking mercenary troops of the coalition forces arrived. In the other direction, another roundabout infantry phalanx encountered the crossbowmen of the Wild Boar Regiment head-on. The infantry protecting them bravely fought the enemy, but in the end they were outnumbered and chose to retreat. The two phalanxes of the Royal Army surrounded a coalition phalanx in this way.

But at this critical moment, the Kingdom Army suddenly blew the horn, the drums were as dense as raindrops, and the rapid cornet sounded continuously behind the soldiers. The side that had the upper hand in the fierce battle suddenly stopped fighting, As the opponent's crossbow arrows began to retreat, the coalition forces did not dare to rush forward, so watching them keep going backwards, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com even gave up their original position.

Afterwards, a cavalryman walked out of the Royal Army's army, holding a white flag and walking towards the coalition's position. The soldiers of the coalition army began to cheer, but at the rear of the troops, Kestor's face was indeed clouded. Already realized the problem.

In the big tent of the Kingdom Army, no one dared to speak. Maps, cups, scrolls of parchment, books, and armor and clothing were all scattered on the floor, and the tables and shelves that had previously carried them were also lying askew in place. King Graves stood before the upturned table, flushed as if flames could burst from his eyes in a second.

He held the drawn sword in one hand and a scrawled letter in the other. The coat of arms on it is his own, it is a letter sent from his most important territory, Jerkela City, and the content on it is what he has thought about but never believed that it will really happen .

"Von Byron, you bastard!"

In the end, the bewildered soldiers could only hear the thunderous roar of their king outside the tent.
