Tome of Blood - Chapter 286
Chapter 286-136-Charge
The two armies handed over, and the offensive and defensive battles began soon.
Several gaps had already appeared in the wall of the camp, which was no longer able to resist the attack of the coalition forces. Under the leadership of the extraordinary nobles, the vanguard quickly rushed into the camp.
The scuffle started inside and outside the wall of the village.
There is no artillery fire, no gunpowder smoke, only crowded crowds, roars of fighting, flying arrows, and the flickering source power and magic of extraordinary people.
After the nobles who had mastered the extraordinary power climbed the wall of the village, almost all of them looked like monsters who had opened their hands.
Except for the Transcendents in the rebel army, almost no one can stop them.
Standing on the hill, Charlotte can see the battlefield clearly. It can be said that… the coalition forces have an overwhelming advantage.
This is not because there are more coalition forces, but because there are too few Transcendents in the rebel camp to compete with the northern nobles who are at the forefront.
Although he knew that his side was obviously stronger than the rebels, Charlotte still felt a little surprised when he saw the nobles who almost slaughtered the rebels after they entered the camp.
However, considering the next “fishing” plan, she can probably guess what’s going on.
All the superhumans and nobles in the rebel army may have been mobilized into the main cavalry force of the Legolis family.
Taking the camp and eliminating the rebels in the camp is almost a certainty.
However, Charlotte’s mind is no longer on the following offensive and defensive battles.
She looked into the distance, looking for the possible direction of the rebel cavalry unit.
If there is anything to worry about, it is probably whether there will be some powerful superhumans hidden in the main force of the hidden cavalry of the rebels, posing a threat to their own side.
Especially… the black dragon.
Before it was able to suppress Sebastian, even if the black dragon had not reached the rank of Chi Yang, it was probably the peak of Silver Moon.
If it appears on the battlefield, I am afraid it will really cause a lot of trouble for the coalition forces.
The high-end combat power of her own side is still too small, and although she can hack it herself, it is not appropriate to expose it in front of so many troops.
Unless… through someone else’s identity.
After thinking about it, Charlotte finally decided on her housekeeper.
“Sebas, keep an eye on the battlefield. If the black dragon appears in a while, you will join the battle immediately. If necessary…you can use some stronger power.”
Charlotte said cryptically.
Sebas’s heart moved slightly, and he immediately understood what she meant, and nodded respectfully:
“Obey, Master.”
At this time, looking at the battlefield completely immersed in melee, Baron Angus also stepped forward and said in a deep voice:
“My lord, the offensive and defensive battle has reached its climax. Do I need to ask Lord Gaston to send out a signal to lure the main cavalry of the rebel army to attack?”
Charlotte looked at the coalition forces that had already surrounded the wall, and at the same time fell into a melee due to the delay of the rebels, and nodded:
“Send it.”
Following Charlotte’s order, a crimson magic element bomb dragged a long tail flame, and rushed into the sky with a piercing long cry.
Charlotte immediately raised her spirits and looked at the rear of the camp.
There are no more conscripts, so you can spend time continuing to recruit and destroy the elite cavalry of the rebels, which is the real victory.
Whether this battle can wipe out the main force of the rebels depends on whether the rebels are fooled.
The sound of elemental bombs resounded across the battlefield.
However, there was no movement behind the rebels.
One minute passed…
Two minutes passed…
Three minutes passed…
Just as Charlotte frowned gradually, wondering if the rebels had sensed something was wrong and hadn’t fallen for it…the ground began to vibrate.
The vibration was not strong at first.
But as time went by, the vibration became more and more intensive, and accompanied by the vibration, there was a rumbling noise like raindrops.
That was the sound of cavalry charging.
Charlotte’s heart moved, and he immediately looked towards the source of the vibration and sound, and saw puffs of smoke on the horizon behind the camp.
Immediately afterwards, a cavalry unit wearing the flag of the Legris family and wearing chain mail appeared in Charlotte’s sight.
is the elite main force of the Legris family!
Charlotte cheered up.
However, as the rain of horseshoes became louder and more and more cavalrymen appeared on the horizon, Charlotte’s expression gradually became serious.
No other.
The troops that appeared on the horizon were not just the famous Castel cavalry of the Legris family.
The dark army is definitely not just the 3,000 cavalry of Legris, but a cavalry army with no less than 10,000 people!
Besides the flag of the Legris family, Charlotte also saw several flags that she had never seen before.
The flags were uniformly black, with some animal-like totems painted on them. Most of the cavalry clustered under these flags were only wearing light armor and wielding long sabers in their hands.
Seeing these cavalrymen, Baron Angus’ expression changed slightly:
“It’s the hussars of the Isaac tribe in the north!”
“These rebels… even got help from the Grand Duchy of the North!”
Northern Grand Duchy?
Charlotte frowned, wondering why this neighbor in the north also got involved.
She glanced at the cavalry team hidden under the hills that had not yet joined the battlefield. After comparing the numbers of the two sides, she quickly estimated that the cavalry of the rebel army was probably more than three times that of her side.
This result made Charlotte’s heart sink, and he was suddenly a little uncertain about the next battle.
“Your Excellency Angus, can you beat it?”
She couldn’t help asking.
Baron Angus hesitated for a few seconds and said:
“With a sneak attack, victory should still be possible. After all, the Earl Gaston brought elite standing troops with a high percentage of supernatural beings, and most of the hussars in the Grand Duchy of the North were ordinary soldiers…”
“But total annihilation… probably won’t be possible.”
After hearing what Baron Angus said, Charlotte sighed secretly and said:
“If you can’t do it, you can’t do it. If you can win, it’s fine. After all, no one thought that the rebels would even get help from the northern border…”
“Signal, let Gaston attack too.”
“As ordered.”
Angus should be respectful.
Following Charlotte’s command, the signal was sent quickly.
On Castel’s side, the cavalry unit composed of the elite standing staff of the Earl of Tulip, the nobles of the Northland, and knights also dispatched, unfurled the flag of Boulder, and charged towards the battlefield.
Seeing the “Bold Cavalry” rushing towards the battlefield, the main force of the cavalry of the rebel army was obviously more motivated.
However, the rebel cavalry rushing to the forefront soon fell into a commotion.
There is no one else, because after the “Bold Cavalry” rushed to the battlefield, they did not rush to the coalition forces, but rushed directly to them.
More than 4,000 armored cavalry formed a conical array and rushed towards the rebels.
Soon, Charlotte’s eyes widened in surprise.
