Chapter 705 Victory


Chapter 705: Defeat

Looking at Wardler, who was still very motivated to fight, Callum felt indescribably uncomfortable.

This time, as the commander-in-chief, he will let down prairie warriors like Wardler.

Two consecutive cavalry charges failed to achieve the expected results.

Although the thick smoke obscured the battlefield, Callum got the real situation from the people who came back.

Not many enemies were killed, but many were damaged. The corpses of war horses and soldiers formed a circle outside the human phalanx.

"Wadler, you can't go on like this." Callum said bitterly.

"What...what?" Wardler's eyes widened and he could hardly believe what he heard.

Since his commander led his army into Aldo, he has been invincible, destroyed everything and made great achievements.

We are about to touch the edge of the sea. How can we give up just because of this small setback?

The orc armies marching westward were all from the Gray Wolf tribe and were not a core part of the power system of the king's tent.

But if all the northwest areas of the Aldo Kingdom can be included in the bag, the status of the Gray Wolf Tribe in the royal tent will undoubtedly be greatly improved.

Wardler was still in a daze, and Colum flicked his riding whip, "Let Volak lead his troops as a rearguard."

"Lord Colum! Just once, let me do it again. Give it a try!" Wadler still wants to fight for it.

"Wardler!" The orc commander scolded him sternly, "Now is not the time to be impulsive. Before we find a way to restrain the opponent, we cannot let the prairie warriors sacrifice in vain."


He stretched out his generous hand to hold the other person's hand, "Believe me! Soon we will be able to challenge them and chase those humans until we see the sea."

"It seems that the orcs really want to Withdraw from the battlefield! "

On a slightly higher slope, Schroeder and others judged the enemy's movements. At this time, the infantry phalanx was still advancing steadily under the cover of the cavalry.

"They have left a small number of troops in the rear. Perhaps we should send out cavalry to attack and try to inflict greater damage on them."

He suggested this to Paul, with a hint of sound in his voice. Hope.

"Okay!" Paul agreed this time.

When the news spread to the left and right wings, the cavalrymen all became excited.

Since the main role of the cavalry is to cover the infantry phalanx on the flanks, many people acted as observers throughout the process.

At the beginning of the battle, they were still full of worries and worries about the power of the orc cavalry. However, as the enemy's attack fell into decline and the advantage tilted to the Austrian side, their thoughts of competing for credit inevitably became active.

As soon as the order was given, the Austrian cavalry rushed towards the rear of the orcs like a fighting dog that had been released.

"The human cavalry is here!"

"How dare they! Form a team and kill them!"

The orc cavalry at the rear was very surprised and angrily prepared to teach the other party a lesson.

However, the heart-stopping whistling sound sounded again.

Dozens of Austrian artillery roared, pouring deadly firepower onto the heads of these rear cavalry, forcing them to scatter.

"Hell!" Warak, the orc general who was in charge of commanding the rear troops, cursed angrily, "How can we fight like this!"

At this time, a cannonball hit the ground on his side, splashing The dirt covered his face, and the force was so strong that his whole face was burning.

Wolak wiped the dirt from his face while congratulating himself on his good fortune.

But at this time the Austrian cavalry was approaching.

The Alda artillery stopped the bombardment at the right time. If the Alda infantry were to carry out the attack, the artillery support could continue for several rounds. Unfortunately, the cavalry from the royal capital and other territories and the Alda artillery lacked coordinated training. In order to avoid They did not dare to accidentally injure friendly forces. The orc cavalry at the rear quickly began to gather, but it seemed a little too late in front of the Austrian cavalry that had already begun to attack at high speed.

The Austrian cavalry punched in like a clenched fist, but they were still in disarray.

But the orcs are not vegetarians. They rely on their superb riding skills to deal with the Austrian cavalry. Moreover, their equipment is lighter and they have an advantage in flexibility.

Derrick Heller and Garret Ferdinand were fully armed on horseback. They were very close to each other, one holding a hammer and the other holding a long sword.

As the younger generations of their respective families, they all longed for the day when they were young and rode horses on the battlefield. They dreamed that one day they would go to the Watcher’s Fortress to experience as a knight of the kingdom and kill orcs and barbarians there, but they never expected to realize this. The place of desire turned out to be at the door of one's own home.

The two young men knew each other and were somewhat competitive with each other, but they cooperated very well. They led the knights from their respective families and covered each other while charging among the orc cavalry.

The battle was not fierce. The task of the orc cavalry was to cover the retreat of the main force, so they retreated while fighting. Finally, with their superb riding skills, they got rid of the pursuit of the Austrian cavalry and headed east.

The Austrian army achieved complete victory. For the first time since the defeat in Sunset Valley, they defeated a large-scale orc army with an upright division on the battlefield.

"Long live!" "Victory!"

Warm roars broke out one after another. Everyone tried their best to vent their excitement. Many people hugged each other and burst into tears.

"Congratulations, hero of the kingdom!"

When the commanders of the various ministries gathered together, Catherine kissed her fiancé in front of everyone. Because it was so sudden, Paul's whole face turned red, which made him angry. Everyone laughed.

Later, the battlefield was cleared. The Austrian army sacrificed 313 people, wounded 132 people, killed 2235 orcs, captured 813 people, and captured 1045 horses.

The disparity in the exchange ratio shocked everyone. Everyone thought they had just experienced a tragic battle, but they did not expect that their own casualties were so low.

……

"Your Majesty!"

In Jingyao's palace, the attendant hurriedly entered the king's study, his behavior could almost be described as intrusion.

“Please, don’t bring me any bad news.”

The young king who was writing at his desk raised his head, his brows furrowed together, the invasion of the orcs had already It was enough to make him anxious.

“No, it’s good news!”

"Good news?"

"Yes!" The attendant almost shouted, "The kingdom's army has won in the northwest!" He then presented a piece of paper.

Thanks to the telegraph line extending from the northwest to Jingyao, news of the victory on the Ursola Plains reached Jingyao within half a day.

Rodney Eighteen's eyes widened, "It's Grayman, victory, another victory!"

"Heavenly Father bless you!" The king stood up from his seat excitedly He stood up and grabbed the letter from the attendant.

He unfolded it and eagerly read its contents.

The Orc cavalry was approaching, and the Austrian army was ready to form a phalanx to resist the enemy's attack. The Orc attack was fruitless and suffered heavy casualties, and was forced to withdraw from the battlefield.

The process was very simple, and the king was delighted with a bit of regret.

This is not a hearty battle of annihilation, but it is enough.

At this time, another attendant walked in.

"Your Majesty, His Highness Jassim has just returned from negotiating with the orcs."
