The Original Vampire

Cavalry is not good at attacking cities, this is a military common sense.

The reason is also very simple, the cavalry who come and go like the wind will not carry siege equipment.

What's more, ant-attached siege requires human life to fill, and no sensible general is willing to waste precious cavalry in the siege battle.

Of course, if the city gate can be opened by means of internal response, sneak attack, deception, etc., then for the cavalry, the difficulty of attacking the city will immediately drop by several levels.

Now for the blood cavalry, this is the situation.

Rushing in from the open north gate, galloping through the wide streets, if the enemy can defeat all the resistance before they can be caught off guard, then the overall situation of Bailu City is determined.

However, if the enemy cannot be defeated at once, it will be a little troublesome for the blood cavalry army.

After all, cavalry cooperation is the key to occupying the city. Without infantry support, if you want to completely wipe out the enemy in the city, the cavalry will pay a great price.

Because this is not a field battle, once the city gates are broken open, and there is no quick solution, then the next stage will be a brutal and bloody street battle.

In this regard, infantry has a natural advantage over cavalry.

Of course, it's not that the cavalry can't fight street fighting, but they will lose their greatest advantage.

The blood cavalry army did not seem to want to fall into the quagmire of street fighting, and launched the most violent offensive as soon as they entered the city, and their attack target was also very clear-

It is not Bailubao, the ruling core of the Eastern Territory, but the manor of the Hall family!

From the time the North City Gate was breached, the guards, who were caught off guard and lacked combat experience, almost collapsed at a touch under the sudden and violent attack of the Blood Cavalry Army.

Even if the generals in charge of the defense of Beicheng managed to gather thousands of soldiers, the hastily formed infantry army could not stand the charge of the blood cavalry army.

In the first battle, these thousands of Eastern Border infantrymen were almost instantly defeated by the blood cavalry army and turned into a one-sided slaughter. That section of the street was covered with the corpses of Eastern Border soldiers, layer upon layer, and blood flowed into rivers. Extend far.

The situation in Beicheng completely collapsed like this.

The blood cavalry army did not intend to stop at all, and immediately began to march towards the East City where the Hall family was located.

Looking from above,

I saw fire dragons start from the north gate and quickly spread eastward. Wherever they went, the sound of hoofs was like thunder, and the sound of killing was everywhere.

But when the blood cavalry army's vanguard rushed into the east city, they immediately noticed that the situation here was completely different from the north city.

Rows of soldiers from the Eastern Front held huge shields, put out long spears, and formed a hedgehog-like army on the street, and on the roofs on both sides of the street, there were archers shooting arrows continuously.

This is obviously well-prepared!

Moreover, judging by the speed at which the blood cavalry army smashed the northern city, the army formation on the east side may have already begun to line up before the blood cavalry army entered the city!

How is that possible?

Clive wielded his lance and swept away the arrows shot in the face, then immediately summoned a messenger and ordered:

"You immediately return to Beicheng and inform the Knights of the situation here, and say that the Dongcheng defenders are already prepared. This is probably a trap!"

"Yes!"

The messenger was ordered to leave.

And Clive's eyes returned to the front, looking at the Eastern Border guards who had been waiting for a long time, but he did not have the slightest retreat.

Even if the front is a trap, under the military order, he must lead the army forward!

"The warriors of the north, kill them all with me!"

"rush!"

...

Upstairs in Beicheng.

Knight Logue quietly listened to the front-line information brought back by the messenger, and remained silent.

His eyes were staring at the direction of Dongcheng, where the smoke filled the air, and the sound of killing shook the sky.

Even if he didn't see it with his own eyes, Knight Logue could guess the tragic situation of the battle in Dongcheng.

Obviously, the Eastern Frontier Army took advantage of its geographical location and pulled the Blood Cavalry Army into brutal street battles.

Compared with the relaxed and easy-to-follow Beicheng, it seems to be the real hell.

The adjutant on the side saw that Knight Logue was silent for a long time, and couldn't help but reminded:

"My lord, the St. Pros family is clearly prepared, I'm afraid this is really a trap against the blood cavalry!"

Knight Logue sneered and said, "Then we also need to see if the traps of the people from the east are capable of trapping the beast of the blood cavalry army!"

The adjutant hesitated for a while, and he didn't say any more words of persuasion, but also turned his attention to the direction of Dongcheng.

I saw that the fire dragons representing the blood cavalry were obviously blocked and their speed was greatly reduced.

However, compared to the re-established Tianma Army, a strong army like the Blood Cavalry Army is not even a little bit stronger in combat effectiveness. Even when the numbers, arms, and geographical advantages are all at a disadvantage, they are still struggling to advance towards the goal.

In the midst of the anxiety of the battle, another messenger hurried over and reported to the Knights of Logue:

"My lord, the outposts outside the city have found traces of the enemy!"

The knight of Logue was shocked and immediately asked, "How many people are there? How far are they from us?"

"The sky is too dark to accurately detect the enemy's location and specific conditions, but from the marching marks left by the opponent, this is definitely an army of tens of thousands of people!"

Knight Logue froze in his heart, frowning tightly.

The adjutant couldn't bear it any longer and said:

"My lord, the Pegasus Legion is in the city, and the lord coalition should be outside. This is definitely a trap! We have been fooled!

Now it is too late to gather the army and withdraw, otherwise, when the army outside the city surrounds the north gate, we will really be trapped in Bailu City! "

The Rogue Knight didn't speak, but just stared at the direction of Dongcheng.

The adjutant persuaded again: "Sir, I suspect that Marquis Vincent betrayed us, even if we successfully break through the defending positions of Dongcheng, it is impossible to take the Hall family!

Therefore, you should order the withdrawal of troops as soon as possible! "

Knight Logue turned his head and asked seriously: "Are you sure that Marquis Vincent betrayed us?"

"Of course! It must have been Marquis Vincent who disclosed our plan to the Duke of St. Pros.

Otherwise, with the speed at which we rushed all the way, how could the Duke of St. Pros have time to summon the army of lords and let them lie in ambush outside the city to block our retreat? "

Seeing that Knight Logue was still hesitating, the adjutant persuaded again: "Actually, this is not surprising. After all, Marquis Vincent is from the East, and even if he agrees to cooperate with us, there is no guarantee that he will not change his mind. Trust this guy..."

"Are you questioning the count?" Knight Logue interrupted coldly.

The adjutant immediately lowered his head and said, "Don't dare!"

Knight Logue took a deep look at the adjutant and said, "You go to Dongcheng to supervise the battle in person. Within three hours, you must kill the Hall family's manor!"

"Yes!"

Afterwards, the Knights of Logue instructed the messenger:

"Let the sentry find the position of the army outside the city and report their movements to me at any time!"

"Yes!"
