Conquer the Dawn of Heaven

The Agry Spearmen held the weapon in their hands and stared nervously at the blurry shadow that was quickly approaching under the opposite smoke. That was the Anatolian light cavalry, which can be said to be the most frightening Europeans after the Mongolian cavalry. Enemy.

In Europe, even the powerful Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, known for its excellent cavalry, has to be cautious when facing Anatolian light cavalry, but Bohemian, which also has many cavalry, because of their The king was cowardly to the Ottomans, and since the Battle of Varna in 1444, he no longer dared to let their cavalry appear in front of the Ottoman cavalry.

Now, the Agri phalanx has to face these so-called most powerful cavalry in the world today, and this time there is no reinforcements.

Anatolian cavalry are light cavalry, so their biggest advantage is the rapid and agile maneuver, rather than the terrifying impact of the French knights. The well-trained cavalry skills allow them to be close to the enemy The place cleverly changed direction suddenly, and then took advantage of the chaos of the enemy to find the gap and burst into it.

The enemies in front of them now look like a neatly arranged phalanx, which is not good for cavalry, but even worse for light cavalry, but the experienced light cavalry are not worried. Under the leadership of the officer rushing ahead, with a sharp whistle with a special meaning, the Anatolian light cavalry began to slow down where they were about to approach the enemy by 50 yards. They needed a little buffer, and they also needed to Give the enemy a "chance to relax".

When you see a cavalry rushing head-on, the tall warhorse and the wielding sharp sword are a cruel test for the defensive infantry. Many battles are not necessarily ended by **** slaughter, sometimes when one of the cavalry When the blocking momentum rushed to the enemy infantry queue, the terrible momentum like a mountain pressure had already shaken the spirit of the opponent, and once this shaking was expanded, it would probably infect the entire army.

Perhaps only a few people are afraid of fighting, but this contagion spreads a little, and then it may change from the timidity of a few people to the defeat of the entire army.

The Anatolian Light Cavalry once experienced many such scenarios, which also allowed them to accumulate enough experience and tactics. They often used the kind of terrible momentum like the end of the day to rush toward the enemy first, and then in the opponent ’s When the mental tension is about to collapse, it suddenly slows down at a very close distance. At this time, the enemy's spirit will often be relieved from that kind of near-death tension, and this relaxation is often more terrible than direct collapse on the battlefield.

Because that would make their observations dull and think that it would be safer to hug together. At this time, even if the enemy starts to turn to find gaps in front of their positions, they often respond slowly, or say they suddenly come alive from the line of life and death Fortunately, they will have the mind to avoid fighting the enemy.

This kind of thing is too much for the Anatolian light cavalry, so much so that they have formed their own unique tactics of intimidating the charge, they only need to change their direction after a rush, and they have a chance Look for loopholes in the enemy formation that cannot be avoided because of panic and hesitation.

The cavalry officer's eyes were keenly looking for flaws in the enemy's faintly shaking formation. Although he ran on a horse, the officer was very patient. Years of experience let them know the strength of the light cavalry and understand their weaknesses, especially in the face Against the infantry, the light cavalry actually took the same huge risk to force them to become like wild wolves at any time to find the enemy's fatal flaws.

The gap between the two enemy phalanxes caused by the temporary movement attracted the attention of the cavalry officer. Although the enemy seemed to have noticed the bad and tried to remedy, the short-term flaw has already fallen to the Anatolian officer In the eyes.

This was enough. The officer sent a signal that the cavalry was running along the front of the front dozens of yards away from the enemy. The cavalry quickly diverted like a turbulent stream, and then these countless streams quickly merged with skilled skills. It formed a turbulent river, rushing toward the gap between the two Agrigan formations of the Montina army.

The light cavalry do not need to directly face the enemy infantry, their task is to transform into a sharp knife roasted on the fire, quickly and ruthlessly cut into the cheese.

"It's like a hot sharp knife that cuts into cheese", which was once described in the book as a description of the breakthrough of the enemy position. The creator of this description has long been unverifiable, and many people don't even know that there was such a saying. , But now Ottoman cavalry officers have the same similar feeling at this moment.

Until there was a shocking gunshot coming head-on.

The sound of a musket is actually not very loud. Because muskets of this era are subject to various constraints from firearms to gunpowder, as well as the shape of projectiles, they are more dull than they are described as "clear gunshots" after a long time. Sound.

Therefore, the sound of a single musket shot is often ignored, especially when fighting in the wilderness, the sound of the musket shot will not attract too much attention.

But when the rows of muskets fired simultaneously under one command, the sound like a sudden collapse and the spectacular scene of a large fire and smoke from the muzzle protruding from the forest still became the battlefield at this moment The most shocking scene.

The whistling projectile instantly formed a terrible elastic band on the front of the position. In this dense area formed by lead bullets with a width of less than 20 yards, the harsh sound of the air piercing from far and near was just an instant blink. time.

Some people even saw the shadow of the terrible black dot rushing towards themselves, but then waiting for the cavalry to react, the bullets had been shot into them or the body of their mount, in these proud Anatolia A large expanse of blood burst out of the cavalry.

Even Xi Sugu, who was far behind, felt the shock at this moment.

The Ottomans have a larger firearms force than any country in this era. Whether it is a large cannon that can break Constantinople, such as the Urban cannon, or a sharp firearm, the Ottoman army of this era can be said to be walking in the whole. The forefront of world military technological change.

However, even Xi Sugu was shocked by this scene.

The Ottoman Musketeers do have skill in using firearms, but they are more concerned about personal bravery. The Ottomans are proud to be sharpshooters, but they almost never pay attention to their cooperation with their companions. They care more about how they are in front of others. Showcasing his own shooting skills, this led to many famous sharpshooters among the Ottomans, but there has never been a famous commander of a musketeer.

Xi Sugu also does not pay attention to the organization of the Musketeers. In his view, having strong firepower and accurate shooting skills is enough to deal with any enemy. As for the enemy, if the enemy also has sharp firearms, then the number of firearms will completely overwhelm the other.

But at this moment, watching the light cavalry fall down like a leaf as it was swept by a gust of wind, Xi Sugu's head seemed to be slammed by something. He could not help walking two steps forward, his eyes fixed on the front ones It seems that the figure of the light cavalry was beaten at once.

In the first round of shooting, the cavalry officer who discovered the enemy ’s flaws had a lead shot in his neck. The violent impact force directly broke his neck bone. When he fell to the ground, his head Unnaturally clinging to the shoulder and twisting to the side, and his mount ran forward a few steps and found the owner fell off and tried to come back, but just then, the second round of gunshots sounded.

The horse's body ripped several terrible wounds at the moment of being hit. The horse screamed down on the ground and splashed a large piece of muddy water, and the four hoofs could not help kicking and groaning.

If the first round of shooting instantly blocked the momentum of the Ottoman cavalry charge, the second round of shooting was disintegrating their intention to continue the charge.

The sudden blow made the Osmans not expecting such an accident. The cavalrymen in the front circled around in situ, while the rear ones tried to avoid the collision by running to the sides.

"Ah ~ Gerry!"

A command with a tone specific to the residents of the Neapolitan mountains came from the Agri phalanx on one side, a unique tone that had to make the pronunciation of the first letter deliberately elongated for more people to hear It is unique to the Agri people, and issuing this accented command has become a unique feature of the Agri phalanx.

With the order, rows of cold spears pointed forward, and at this moment the tension pervaded everyone.

No one wants to die, but someone will die next, this is war!

As soon as the hoof hitting the human heart rang, the Ottomans rushed to the front, and the dreadful sound of sharp blades piercing into the flesh was instantly heard, and then there were screams of tremendous scream.

But there are still Ottomans rushing through the gap between the front and back of the triangular phalanx. The rapid agility of the light cavalry played a crucial role at this moment. The side-by-side Agri Lance Phalanx and the three Musketeers in the back passed by the gap.

At that moment, the Anatolian light cavalry seemed to hit the hard reef, and the huge waves of countless white water splashed into countless small pieces, and then they gathered together again, permeating the gaps on the reef. Insanely infested, trying to submerge the enemies who were washed up and down, but still standing still.

The Anatolian light cavalry rushed frantically through the gaps of the phalanx, trying to drive the enemy with their fast and agile speed.

This has always been an important means for them to win.

When they rush into the enemy formation, the violent action that roars past will cause a strong shock to the enemy. When their saber can't cut the fragile neck of those unfortunate enemies, it will not only bring fear to the enemy, but also Let the uncontrollable anger completely anger the enemy.

Then the entire formation of the enemy will be driven by them.

Charge, penetration, crazy killing, the enemy will be in chaos because they are trying to chase and intercept these Anatolian cavalry, that is, at this time, the Ottoman infantry, which is mainly the prisoner of war prisoners, Muslem, as the vanguard, will lose the opportunity Enemy positions that are already chaotic are attacking.

This time, Muselim infantry still played their role.

As captives and slaves, the fate of Muselim ’s infantry is determined by the battlefield, either saving enough military power to gain freedom, or dying silently on the battlefield.

So when the gray figures appeared, there were no passionate and fanatical prayers, no greedy greed because of the desire for loot, and only the indifferent eyes in the suppressed silence that seemed to have no hope.

"The second brigade, one behind the other!"

Nikolai Joe Mazzini panted to his companions, and with his orders, the Pizzamen were quickly divided into two teams based on the length of the weapons they held, and the spearmen were sharp in their hands. The spearpoint of the spear pointed through the gap in the front shield to the Musselim infantry opposite.

Faced with the terrible steel hedgehog in front of him, no one of Muselim's infantry stopped, or even had any strange expression on their faces. They just raised their hands full of mottled black bloodstained weapons and directed them towards them with a **** breath The enemy threw it.

This moment for Muselim infantry is no different from the previous battles. It is exactly the same as the future battles. They will continue to fight like this until they can finally leave one day or die in a battle. On the battlefield.

The impact of Muselim's infantry was terrible, and even more terrifying was their almost numb spirit in the face of death.

The pizza was almost torn apart almost immediately upon contact. In the face of the terrorist attack of Muselim ’s infantry, the Pisa regiment ’s front continued to sway back and forth. With the strangling with the enemy, the front was slightly stabilized. Two waves of gray figures have appeared.

Macheney gasped and made an unclear shout. He felt that his shoulders were heavy, and a piece of deformed shoulder armor saved his life. However, the knife he cut across the shoulder just now made his arm dislocated.

Mazzini held the sword with a right hand in front of him, and the blood flowing down the blade was blocked by the hand, but some still flowed onto the hilt, and the sticky slip made it more difficult for Macheney to hold the sword. .

Macheney saw the grey figure rushing up again, and the large Ottoman infantry wearing aqua-colored interracial costumes immediately behind them.

Macheney looked sideways nervously, seeing the Agri phalanx that supported his regiment vaguely, and he was a little more at ease in his heart, when he could already see the face of the enemy who was about to rush in front of him, Mache Ninety heard the sound of guns coming from the side almost in no particular order.

Bullets fired from the direction of the interdependent Agry phalanx hit the Musselim infantry group from the side like a hail, and a row of soldiers on the side immediately fell to the ground.

At the same time, another Muselim infantry had appeared in front of the Agri phalanx.

"Lance ~ Hand!"

The unique command of the mountain people rang from the team. A spear pointed at the pounced Muslemim infantry, and in the dense spear gap, the musketeers on one knee kneeled up one after another The muskets that have just been reloaded are full of hot eyes, and the Agri Phalanx is about to undergo a severe test at this moment.

Xi Sugu stared closely at the front, he secretly murmured in his heart, when he suddenly felt something in his heart, a violent gunshot suddenly sounded at this moment.

Xi Sugu seems to have noticed something interesting. He waved his hand to stop a general who was about to report to him, but continued to meditate in his heart.

"Arrived……"

As he whispered in his mouth, a violent rifle sounded through the battlefield.

"Put the muskets together." Xi Sugu muttered to himself, and like other Ottoman generals, Xi Sugu did not attach importance to the restrictions on the use of musketeers, because both the firepower and the scale were often overwhelming on the battlefield Advantages, in the eyes of the Ottomans, only those enemies who are so weak due to their lack of strength will try to make the best use of the power of their poor musket troops through various methods.

In the past engagement with the Europeans, although he has encountered opponents who tried to use the concentrated firepower to exert the power of firearms, at least for Xi Sugu, he has not encountered such a combat method before him.

Just as in order to deliberately pursue the uniform steps, the enemies in front of them often would rather endure the casualties caused by the attack of Muselim ’s infantry, and also fire at the same time after hearing the order, when a spearman is in combat. When falling down, the musketeers immediately grabbed the dropped spears to fill the gaps that appeared, and between the bursts of neat shooting, some musketeers relied on sporadic reloading speeds that were more flexible than others. Want to shoot across the Ottomans.

"Is there anything?" Xi Sugu asked the general who had just spoken.

"The Light Cavalry asked for another charge," the men hurriedly reported, then lowered their voices and said carefully, "They did not receive the news from the previous charge of the cavalry, so they requested a second attack."

Xi Sugu frowned lightly, but he did n’t care much about the enemy ’s shooting method that used concentrated firepower to increase his power. Although he was novel, he did n’t care much. What he really cared about was the position of the Montina army. layout.

The loss of contact with the Anatolian cavalry step, which was the first attack before, is obviously not a good sign. Of course, the loss of contact does not mean that it is annihilated. At the speed and bravery of the Anatolian light cavalry, unless the enemy has the same Scale and mighty cavalry, otherwise it is impossible to be wiped out.

But Xi Sugu noticed a sign of concern from the layout of his enemy's position.

"Is that Earl of Montina going to stay on the Dembrica river?" Xi Sugu looked at the smoke everywhere on the battlefield. Although the battle had not just begun, it broke out from the front of the Montina army. In the fierce firepower, Xi Sugu seemed to see Alexander's determination.

"The man wants to use the swamp as an obstacle to block our way, but he obviously doesn't yet know what his enemy is the most terrible." Xi Sugu said a sneer to the people around him. "Our most terrible is not They are strong, but there are always more troops than them. "

After speaking, Xi Sugu ordered out loud: "Order to attack the swamp." Then he turned to a man in a gorgeous coat not far away and said, "Tell your Governor, he can act."
