Lord of Riders - Chapter 306
“Your Majesty, I couldn’t stop them” Fatis said when he saw Shao Yu’s arrival and walked down to Shao Yu’s side.
“Well, it’s okay, the enemy reacted quickly, don’t blame you” Shao Yu soothed
Shao Yu watched the enemy retreat into the forest, and did not rush to order an attack.
Cavalry does not have much advantage in the forest, because of the obstacles of trees and shrubs, the horses are not easy to charge in the woods.
“Baalhu, you first lead five thousand soldiers into the woods, try to test the enemy, and withdraw in any situation,” Shao Yu said to General Baalhu
“Yes, Your Majesty” Barhu led the army into the woods immediately after leading the order
Then Shao Yu gave several orders. Cusa and another general led 10,000 soldiers from the Iron Legion to enter from the other two directions to try to encircle the enemy. As long as they entangle the enemy, they won’t be so easy to escape. For the combat effectiveness of the army. Shao Yu is still very confident. The Anglo-Saxon empire is strong. Such opportunities are not very common. Field battles are more advantageous to the Shao Ming Kingdom. Therefore, Shao Yu hopes that more enemies can be eliminated through this encounter. Reduce some pressure for the subsequent battle.
However, the generals sent out by Shao Yu soon discovered that they pushed the enemy forward and ran away, not entangled with them at all, and it seemed that they were quite familiar with the woods, and soon disappeared. When they started to retreat, the enemy began to encircle and put cold arrows in the back. This caused Balhu and others a headache. I had to report the situation to Shao Yu
“The enemy is too cunning. When we advance, they begin to retreat. When we retreat, they follow again. They want to be like wild dogs on the grassland. It’s quite difficult, your Majesty.” Barhu complained to Shao Yu.
He led his army here and entangled with the enemy for a day, and there was no result. Reluctantly had to retreat the army. The two armies on Cusa’s side also did not surround the enemy.
“Huh, guerrilla warfare, if the attack is suspended today, the enemy will definitely not run” Shao Yu said
“Then what are we going to do?” Balhu asked
“Tomorrow, directly lead the army to press up, the other two will naturally outflank from two directions,” Shao Yu said
“It’s no use, Your Majesty, they are like monkeys in the woods, so you won’t be able to catch them at all.” Barhu said
“Hmph, don’t worry, as you move forward, I will send infantrymen to accompany them and lay ambushes along their retreat. If they chase them, let them come back and forth. Once their troops are intercepted, you will outflank them on both sides. The army immediately encircled him, and then Balhu led the cavalry to kill the carbine. No matter how many enemies were stopped, I would eat them all. After eating these enemies, they would immediately retreat for me, don’t worry about them!” Shao Yu said
“Yes, Your Majesty, I will obey the military order.” The generals said in unison after hearing
The army rested all night, and as soon as it was light, the Shao Ming Kingdom’s army launched another offensive. Perry still used the same method as yesterday to deal with Shao Yu.
However, in order to control Shao Yu and the others, Perry deliberately threw out a small amount of troops to be killed by Shao Yu, so that Shao Yu could continue to be fooled, so as not to lose confidence. By then, Perry’s abacus could be defeated, and Dunn’s main force could not. Surround and wipe out Shao Yu, they will be more passive. Perry knew that Shao Yu was definitely going to attack Suno Paravin. The two towns now have very few defenders, and they will easily be defeated, so Perry will naturally not let Shao Yu leave easily.
But Perry didn’t expect that he would be swayed by Shao Yu in the end.
While Perry was commanding the army to continue to follow the retreating Baal Tigers, he suddenly heard killings from behind. Countless enemies rushed out from the woodlands on both sides, obviously they were in an ambush.
“Retreat. Retreat!” Perry quickly ordered the retreat. The army behind ran away. Perry ran away with a group of soldiers. However, more than 10,000 people were intercepted by ambushes, and from both sides. The soldiers of the Iron Legion who came up surrounded more than ten thousand people tightly.
The soldiers of the Iron Legion in ambush got up and fired indiscriminately with crossbows. Afterwards, the retreating Baerhu Department returned a carbine, which completely disrupted the besieged lone army. They were originally a group of bandits, not organized like a regular army, and now they are fighting separately.
In order to resolve the battle as quickly as possible, the cavalry of the Kingdom of Swadia and the Khergit Khanate also pressed forward.
Looking at this situation, Perry must have been unable to help the besieged troops, so he had to take this opportunity to try to slip back to Suno, otherwise the enemy would turn around to attack Suno, and Suno would definitely lose his defense.
The fierce fighting in the woods lasted for more than two hours, and the coalition forces suffered more than a thousand casualties. These green forest troops were basically wiped out.
Shao Yu ordered to clean up the battlefield quickly, collect the corpses of his own soldiers, and send the wounded for treatment. The enemy’s corpses were also gathered together to cut out an isolation zone and burned all the enemy’s corpses. Of course, there were some injured enemy troops. All let them fend for themselves.
But the corpse has to be disposed of, otherwise, after the decay, there will be an outbreak of disease, plague or something, I am afraid that the entire continent will be affected by that time.
Originally, the corpse was dealt with by wild wolves and crows, but Shao Yu estimated that these brothers should have eaten long ago. It is safer to burn.
After the war, it took three hours to clean the battlefield. When the battlefield was cleared, it was already evening.
“Your Majesty, those enemies have fled to the plains north of Suno as we have just discovered, should we go and pursue them?”
Originally, Shao Yu was planning to retreat and take the opportunity to attack Suno, but the information from the scouts made Shao Yu change his plan~www.mtlnovel.com~ to withdraw his troops and retreat to Kael Reddant. “Shao Yu ordered
“Are we going to attack Suno?” King Harous asked.
“We have been entangled with these enemies for two days. I guess the enemy’s main reinforcements may be coming soon. At this time, Tasunuo might be hard to get off.” Shao Yudao
“Well, retreat” King Haraus quickly issued the same order, and the coalition forces retreated before reaching the target location. This time, even if it wiped out more than 10,000 enemy troops, it was a bit of gain.
Du En received Perry’s news and immediately fired up a 100,000 army, preparing to encircle Shao Yu’s assault cavalry unit, but when Du En led his army to the battlefield, Perry had led his army cat back to Suno. Shao Yu has also defeated the ten thousand remnants. After evacuating the battlefield, the two sides wiped their shoulders but did not meet.
Reluctantly, Du En had to lead his army back, but considering the threat of Shao Yu’s cavalry force, Du En still ordered Perry not to go to Uxhal for support.
But at the same time, Du En also knew the position of Shao Yu’s main cavalry.
