Chapter 448
EP.448
As magic and arrows were poured in, the soldiers, already too drunk and out of their senses, began to run wild.
Some soldiers were drunk and emotional, watching magic and arrows fly.
“Hehehe, this is a dream. “It’s a dream, why is it so hot?”
They were talking nonsense like this, and another soldier lost his mind due to the fear of a sudden surprise attack and a long-distance attack.
Most of those who had lost their minds were foaming at the mouth as if convulsing, losing focus in their eyes and standing blankly in place… but
some even threw away their spears and ran towards the imperial troops.
“Fuck I want to go home!”
Of course, the soldier who ran out was hit by magic or an arrow and immediately went to heaven.
Although they were witnessing this scene, many of the soldiers of the United Kingdom Army were holding spears and somehow standing in their positions.
There were many people who wet themselves out of fear.
However, because the situation was so urgent, no one, including the person involved, paid attention to the fact that the comrade next to him was a piss-poor.
Still, the officers barely escaped the ‘disgraceful act of urinating’ in this chaos, but they also lost a lot of their judgment due to extreme fear.
“You never know when the enemy will charge! Pick up the spear and keep it dustproof!”
The few commanders, officers, non-commissioned officers, and soldiers under his command who had come to their senses after hearing those words were taken aback by the strange command to stand while arrows and magic rained down on them.
An order is an order and I had no choice but to follow it, so I stood upright and prepared to face the enemy’s charge.
If Peter Yeager had seen it, he would definitely have said this.
‘These are the guys who will maintain the line infantry tactics from World War I and move forward in front of the machine gun battery in close contact.’
But those with poor judgment continued to adhere to this strange command.
This is because the reason they were trained to use it even unconsciously was to prevent a surprise attack in the form of an enemy attempting ‘hand-to-hand combat’ with a weapon.
Peter Yeager maintained silence while holding the Commander-in-Chief, a commander symbolizing the military authority of the Emperor, rather than the Commander-in-Chief, in order to carefully observe the various sounds coming from the enemy lines and the reactions shown through the movements of the United Kingdom Army…
After a while, he sighed. He exhaled and smiled.
“If I rain down magic on you idiots like this, it would be safer for you to run away. “Is there something missing from your head?”
Anya shrugged her shoulders and answered.
“Didn’t your Excellency say so? “When people are embarrassed, their brains harden and they cannot respond properly.”
“In times like that, you have to be more alert. “Even if you get caught in a tiger or a bear’s den, you can come out alive if you come to your senses.”
Jaeger joked that he knew a Korean proverb that he barely remembered anymore.
“Isn’t it possible to say that His Excellency the Marshal is someone who can kill a bear and a lion as long as he holds a sword?”
Peter Yeager could not bear to refute those words.
This is because, of course, Anya did not know this proverb, and as Anya said, she thought that with her swordsmanship skills, she would actually win even if she were to fight a bear.
“So, Excellency, when can our knights and archers leave? Should we send out the infantry in a standard strategy to attack the United Kingdom forces and then pursue them?”
“No, if you do that, our infantry losses will increase.”
Peter Yeager stopped talking and gave an order to the staff member next to him.
“Chief of Engineers, how much magic do you think the camp over there will turn into a sea of fire?”
“It is a place where hundreds of thousands of troops stay. “It would be difficult using magic alone.”
Jaeger shook his head and said regretfully.
“It’s a shame, what can I do? Still, we have to use as much magic and arrows as possible at that camp and create as much sagebrush as we can before going in.”
If you are attacked while camped, the majority of your troops will stay at the perimeter of the camp to prepare for subsequent enemy attacks.
This is because a campground, no matter how roughly made, can function as a simple fortress depending on how it is used.
The border is used as a kind of castle wall.
So, as Peter Yeager said, just hitting the ‘border’ and the area near it will be enough to slaughter a significant number of United Kingdom soldiers.
“Tell the wizards to shoot magic until they run out of magic, and tell the archers to keep shooting without worrying about arrow stock until the wizards stop casting magic.”
“Yes sir!”
The engineering staff quickly rushed over and delivered an order to all imperial troops to shoot without sparing any magic or arrows.
“No, captain, go immediately and create a wedge formation in advance so that the knights and archers can charge right in.”
“yes? Shouldn’t you let the infantry in first? In any case, the border of the camp is made up of infantry rather than cavalry…”
There are many cases where fences and various traps are installed around the border of the camp to prevent intrusion by horses or people.
So, Anya said that because it is more efficient for the ‘infantry’ that can eliminate such things to step forward first.
“If the wizards are shooting magic like that, will the perimeter of the camp be okay?”
After saying that, Peter Yeager pointed his finger at the night sky.
I ordered fireballs, a type of fire magic, to be launched in order to set the enemy camp ablaze…
Countless fireballs were flying like comets with red tails, lighting up the dark night sky and our surroundings.
‘It may look like hell to them, but to us, it’s really pretty.’
Anya also nodded at those words.
“I don’t think I’ll be fine. But why do you bother using cavalry first?”
“I learned this from the northern cavalry, but I heard that it is more efficient to step on the enemy once with a horse when turning the enemy camp into a swamp. Of course, it would also apply to killing those United Kingdom guys over there.”
Anastasia Kergit was convinced after hearing those words.
‘As expected, His Excellency, our Grand Marshal… You are the true Khan…’
She said that even now, her body looks the same as when she was in her 20s and her physical strength is almost the same, so she dreams of having another child for herself and the Khan she respects. had a
Anyway, time passed slowly and before I knew it, a report came from the magician unit.
“The wizards’ magic power has been depleted.”
“Good, I will personally lead the knights and archers. “All cavalry will do a final inspection before charging, and the infantry will follow when I give a separate signal!”
“Yes sir!”
Peter Yeager immediately ran to the stable where his horse was parked and got on the horse.
When I led my horse to where the archers and knights were, I saw that all the cavalry there were fully prepared to charge.
‘As expected, our imperial army is the best.’
Marshal Jaeger, feeling proud of his country’s army, raised his sword at the vanguard and pointed forward.
“I won’t talk too much. It’s time to clearly show the power of the Reich Empire. “All troops follow me and charge!”
The head of the Reich army, the Grand Marshal, took the lead, but no one was worried about Peter Jaeger.
Rather than worrying, everyone’s morale soared to the sky at the fact that a master they trusted and followed was at the forefront of a battle that, by all accounts, had already been won.
“Cannes! Cannes! “Khan, I will follow you even if I have to die!”
“Long live the Khan appointed by the Great Khan!”
“Let’s go and engrave the honor and bravery of the knights of the Reich Empire into history!”
Peter Yeager heard cheers, spurred his horse, and started running away.
“Hey!”
As he increased his speed, numerous knights and archers behind him followed, forming a wedge formation made up of divisions.
At the same time, the rain of arrows and magic attacks stopped, and the enemies who had been sighing fell into fear and despair.
“The knights of the Reich Empire have arrived!”
“They are barbarian cavalrymen!”
“Fuck you, save people’s lives!”
Some, or quite a few, of the soldiers threw down their spears and ran away.
Normally, the non-commissioned officers or soldiers around him would have personally cut him off for desertion, but there was no time for that now.
“Whether you run or not, every single one of you will die here!”
Peter Yeager used the lance he was holding to turn the two United Kingdom soldiers in front of him into human skewers.
Using the horse he was riding, he rammed into several enemy soldiers and trampled them with his horse’s hooves, killing them or sending them flying far away.
“Of course, charging on horseback is the best.”
As he stood at the forefront and slaughtered the United Kingdom army while saying this, the knights who followed him also followed suit.
He used the lance to skewer the enemy like meat on a skewer, and hit them with a weight called a horse to send the enemy flying or turning them into mush.
“Why are the imperial troops…”
“Ugh, my arms, my legs!”
“Save people!”
The army of the United Kingdom was so drunk that they had lost their military discipline and were showered with arrows and magic, but the charge of heavy and powerful cavalry made it impossible for them to withstand it.
A company commander wailed loudly as he looked at his company members who were already dead, unable to withstand this attack.
“Peter Yeager you fucking bastard! “What kind of person is making a surprise attack while peace negotiations are being concluded?”
The kind Marshal Jaeger responded by cutting off his head.
“Being in peace negotiations means ‘talking about peace,’ not saying you’ve promised peace. If you want to know, know it properly, you stupid officer.”
