Alien Empire Total War - Chapter 208

The battle between the Imperial cavalry and the Enklan cavalry did not last long, as the former’s 2nd Dragoon Division rushed in shortly after the engagement and joined the fray.

The dragoons armed with carbine also wore half-cuirass. As half-heavy cavalry, they usually fought side by side with the cuirassiers and played a great role in battle. Before charging, the dragoons raised their carbines and fired several volleys at the Enklan cavalry in the melee, then drew their sabres and shouted into the charge.

The Enklan cavalry, who had been shot by muskets in the back, was suddenly caught in the predicament of being attacked by the enemy on both sides. After the enemy reinforcements joined, the strength they originally had was immediately overtaken, and the strength could not surpass the enemy, and the combat effectiveness of individual soldiers was not an opponent. Under the encirclement and suppression, the Enklan cavalry was retreating.

In the melee, people fell from their horses screaming and died from time to time. The sound of swords colliding, the neighing of war horses, the shouting of soldiers, and the sound of musket shooting were incessant, all gathered on this chaotic battlefield, forming a **** war symphony.

“Rush out! Rush out!”

Seeing that his side was gradually falling into a disadvantage, the commander of the Enklan cavalry shouted repeatedly and ordered to break through the siege and withdraw. Around him, the Enklan cavalry fought hard to resist the enemy’s attack. The mobility of the horse was no longer useful at this time. Everyone was red-eyed, and they kept attacking, attacking, and attacking with the weapons in their hands.

On the noisy battlefield, the shouts of the commander of the Enklan cavalry could only be heard by some people around them. They immediately stopped fighting, and instead followed behind the general and tried to rush out in the direction where the enemy was weaker, but how could the imperial cavalry let it They rushed out as they wished.

The dragoons who participated in the battle decisively raised their rifles with bullets and shot at the enemies who were trying to break through. The accuracy of the carbine was greatly improved under this close-range shooting. Fang flashed a flash of fire, and the deadly projectile quickly passed through a distance of tens of meters, killing several cavalry around him.

“Damn!”

Feeling the coolness above his head, General Enkelan cursed subconsciously, trying to lower his body as much as possible to reduce the probability of being hit, but at this moment, a cuirassier not far in front of him stared at him He, he turned the horse’s head, urged the war horse, and took the initiative to charge towards General Enkelan.

Seeing that the enemy was staring at him, no matter how unwilling General Enklan was, he could only bite the bullet and rushed forward with a roar of his saber. After all, the only thing that can protect him is the weapon in his own hands!

“go to hell!”

The general roared and urged the warhorse, his bloodshot eyes stared at the oncoming cuirassiers. As the two passed by, the saber in his hand slashed with all his might, and there was a sound of swords colliding, and then It is the screams of swords piercing the flesh and people.

“what–“

Along with the shrill screams, General Enkelan slammed off his horse while clutching his almost severed right arm, but his ankle was caught by the stirrups of the war horse, his upper body fell to the ground, but his lower body was suspended in the air. , he was dragged by the out-of-control warhorse and continued to run forward, and his body was constantly rubbing on the ground that was almost red with blood.

And the cuirassier he attacked was not unscathed. When the two passed by, the other side’s saber slashed directly on the armor on his shoulder, and the smooth armor slid away and slashed at him again. On his right arm, he left a ferocious wound.

The surrounding Enkelan cavalry witnessed the scene of the commander being slashed under the horse. Their morale and fighting spirit collapsed instantly. First they took the initiative to withdraw, and then the fear spread quickly like a plague on the battlefield. The other cavalry, even if the other surviving cavalry division commander tried hard to stop the defeat, but no matter how much he roared, he could only restrain a part of the cavalry near him and lead them to forcibly break out.

The battle continued for several hours until the end of the battle, and the 6th Division and 1st Brigade of Enkelan, who had begun to withdraw, learned from the rout soldiers that the cavalry had been intercepted on the way. They were about to rush to the battle site, but the Fifth Division of the Imperial Army, which had been following closely behind them, became a very big hidden danger, making them afraid to speed up the march, for fear that the speed would be improved, it was still orderly. The formation will split, allowing enemies behind to seize the opportunity to attack.

You must know that the 6th Division and the 1st Brigade are mainly composed of new recruits who will be added later. Although they are assisted by veterans, their combat experience cannot be improved in a short period of time. They have only experienced a few battles. Only after the war can they cultivate an invisible bond called friendship in arms, which is the most important factor in an army.

But now the two troops obviously do not have this invisible bond. They have only experienced the battle just now, and they are still fighting with the enemy who is feigning the water. They have not seen the real war, and naturally they have not been tempered.

…

“Damn, the Rumeng dog is still chasing us!”

On the plain, Georgi Galen, the commander of the 2nd Cavalry Division of Enkelan, who was defeated in battle and broke through by chance, looked at the imperial cavalry who were still chasing him, abandoned his usual literacy, and cursed, but His curses couldn’t change all of this, he could only beat the horses continuously to speed up the speed of the war horses.

“Run! Let’s hold on for a while before we can join the friendly forces!”

Galen loudly encouraged the cavalry around him who broke out with him~www.mtlnovel.com~ The originally nearly 5,000 Enkelan cavalrymen fought with the imperial cavalry, but this poor man was the only one who escaped with him. More than 700 cavalrymen, the rest either died on the battlefield or fled in other directions, and each of them was covered in blood and looked embarrassed.

Although so many people broke out and fled in the chaos, the imperial cavalry bit them and kept chasing behind them. From the sound of horse hooves like a dull thunder on the ground, one could hear the number of enemies chasing them. At least more than two or three thousand people.

“You really look up to us!”

Galen kept cursing in his heart, and he also more or less guessed the reason. They chased him by the way. The real purpose was the friendly troops of the Sixth Division and the First Brigade that they had planned to go to!

Although he did not think that the two or three thousand cavalry behind him could defeat the 6th Division and the 1st Brigade head-on, he did not forget the existence of the enemy infantry divisions that were still at war with the 6th Division. If the enemy cavalry and infantry Flanking from the front and back, the 6th Division and the 1st Brigade of nearly 10,000 troops will probably all be damaged here.
