Game of Thrones: Attack on the North Wolf

Chapter 216 Destroying the Enemy

Bang, bang, bang!
The various weapons in the hands of the soldiers in the front row of the Uprising without Banners kept attacking the solid kite shields of the front row shield soldiers in the defensive circle.

Whoa, whoa!
Huh, huh, huh!
The spearmen in the second platoon of the joint army of the Northern Territory and Hejian continued to stab with their bloody spears, and the soldiers in the front row of the No Banner Uprising Army who surrounded them fell to the ground in large numbers.

The archers inside the United Army began to shoot freely, surrounded by such a large number of enemy troops outside the circle, they didn't worry that they would miss the target at all.

After a while, a large number of rebel corpses began to pile up outside the defensive circle.But the circular formation of the United Army is still as stable as before, completely unbreakable.

This defensive circle was originally a kind of military formation that gave up attacking and only wanted to protect itself, and it could persist for a long time even in the face of enemies several times its own.

In the previous life, the overlord of Chu used 28 cavalry to form a defensive circle to resist [-] enemy soldiers, and finally succeeded in breaking through.

Of course, this particular case cannot be directly used as a reference.

However, the weapons and equipment, physical fitness, and training levels of the joint army and the rebel army are indeed very different.

Therefore, the commander of the vanguard force initially wanted to take advantage of his own numbers and find the loopholes in the defense, which was directly shattered.The rebel army that has now fully engaged in the battle can only start to fight hard with the coalition army.

However, the situation on the battlefield changes rapidly and will be affected by various factors including weather and terrain.

But this time, it was the large number of corpses of their friendly troops that had a favorable impact on the rebel army.

In the short time since the two sides started fighting, at least thousands of rebel soldiers fell outside the defensive circle forever.

This is already considered a considerable battle loss for the general army, but it is completely trivial to the rebel army whose battle loss has not yet reached one-fortieth.

This group of rebel soldiers who didn't know whether it was because of the sweetness of the looting or the brainwashing of their beliefs launched a frenzied attack on the defensive circle.

The large number of corpses piled up outside the defensive circle began to become steps for the soldiers of the rebel army who attacked later.

tom!
A rebel soldier in worn-out armor stomped on the corpses of his allies, luckily escaped being stabbed by spears, and then jumped directly into the defense circle of the coalition army.

Tear!

As soon as he stood firmly, he raised his polished ax and slashed at the back of a pikeman who had no time to react.

Blood splattered everywhere, and the unlucky spearman's entire head was cut off in half from the back to the front.

However, before the rebel soldier had time to swing his second axe, he was stabbed from the back of the neck by a soldier of the United Army holding a long sword behind him.

After killing the enemy, the soldier immediately threw away the weapon in his hand and picked up the spear on the ground to make up for it.

But starting from the rebel soldier, people kept stepping on the piled up corpses and jumped into the defensive circle.

Although these rebel soldiers did not cause too much damage, unexpected loopholes have begun to appear in the defense circle of the combined army.

In the central area of ​​the defense circle, Earl Tytos was riding a horse and watching the battlefield condescendingly, and from time to time issued orders to the messengers around him to deploy troops to fill positions.

Around Earl Tytos, more than a dozen personal guards who were also riding on horseback raised their shields to cover him layer by layer in order to prevent possible stray arrows.

A guard captain holding a shield slightly moved away the shield, and looked at more and more rebel soldiers who had jumped into the defensive circle to fight hand-to-hand with their own soldiers.
He asked worriedly, "Lord Tytos, should we send out a signal?"

Earl Tytos heard the words, and turned his head to look at the east where a large number of figures had already appeared.Then he shook his head very decisively and said: "No, we must persist until then..."

The battle in the crossroads plain continued like this, and the flowers and plants in this area were nourished by this large amount of blood and corpses, and they would definitely be more colorful in the coming year.

Oh!

At the front of the defense circle, a shield soldier gritted his teeth and tried hard to support the kite shield that seemed to be getting heavier and heavier.Behind them, the spearmen's stabbing frequency has also been significantly reduced.

Although these pikemen knew that they had hit every stab with their hands, but they didn't know that most of the time they stabbed only a corpse.

This is the cleverness played by the commander of the vanguard force. After seeing his own soldiers jumping into the opponent's formation using the piled corpses, he had an idea and ordered a large number of soldiers to use the corpses to block the pikemen's stabbing.

The pikemen in the defense circle generally start to withdraw their spears for the next stab after they feel that they have hit the flesh, instead of continuing to penetrate the flesh with force.

After all, on such a battlefield, as long as the enemy is stabbed by a spear, they will basically lose their combat effectiveness.

A large number of rebel soldiers stepped on the steps of the corpses and jumped into the defensive circle while the corpses were resisting the spear attack.

When seeing more and more rebel soldiers jumping into their own army, the commander of the pikemen who united the army to command the front line noticed this problem.

Therefore, he immediately ordered all the spearmen to change the flat stabs that originally penetrated the gaps in the kite shields of the front row shield soldiers into oblique stabs on the shoulders of the shield soldiers facing the sky at 45 degrees.

Whoa, whoa!
The offensive of the pikemen of the United Army suddenly changed. Many rebel soldiers who wanted to step on the steps of the corpses and jump into the defensive circle were caught off guard by the oblique spears that pierced through their bodies.

However, when they were dying, their blood-soaked bodies continued to slam forward due to the inertia of jumping, knocking down the pikemen who couldn't hold their spears steadily due to their weight into the defensive circle, causing small commotions.

But as soon as there were more such small commotions, it immediately became a big loophole in the defense circle!
Soldiers from the rebel army kept jumping in through the pikemen's gaps, or took advantage of the lack of pikemen to attack the shield soldiers in the front row.

This is the battlefield!
The captain of the spearman changed his response method when he realized that the opponent was being clever, but he didn't want to directly create a bigger loophole than before.

The defensive circular formation, which basically maintained its formation before, is now like an apple bitten by insects, and potholes of varying degrees begin to appear around it.

The entire defense formation of the United Army seems to be in jeopardy!
"Haha, it's reinforcements! Our main force has arrived, brothers, work harder!"

The commander of the vanguard force looked at the main force that was already very close, and shouted in great excitement.

Of course, it is impossible for the remaining 7 rebel soldiers to hear his voice.However, apart from the soldiers who were fighting fiercely in front, everyone else also saw the main force approaching rapidly.

As a result, the morale of the rebel army, which had been declining rapidly, suddenly rose in the face of the tough bone of the coalition army.

"Kill! Let's rush in!"

How could the United Army, which was almost at its limit, be able to adapt to the suddenly high morale of the rebel army, and a gap was torn out of the already deformed defensive circle, and a large number of rebel soldiers rushed in shouting.

Woo, woo! ~~
Suddenly, a high and long horn sounded throughout the battlefield.It could be heard that the soldier who was in charge of blowing the horn must have been blowing his horn with all his might.

Rumble!
A roar like thunder suddenly sounded in the west, and the heavy hooves of at least tens of thousands of horses galloped together brought a strong pressure, as if the air on the battlefield suddenly condensed.

"Made, I have been holding back for so long. I must kill these cubs!"

After this period of cultivation, Little Jon, whose body has recovered to a good extent, is wearing a full-body heavy armor, holding a steel spear and roaring loudly at the enemies in front of him.

"Hey, idiot, your body hasn't fully recovered yet, so take it easy!"

Since his father, Earl Rickard, left with his troops, Ed, who replaced him in Golden Tooth City, looked at this close friend who was like a brother, and couldn't help laughing and cursing.

It's good to be alive!
Feeling the familiar feeling of being disciplined by Ed, Little Jon, who had been around the gate of hell before, couldn't help sighing in his heart, and also laughed out loud.

"Be serious, both of you, the current situation is that we are at a disadvantage!
Act according to the previous tactical plan! "

With a serious expression on his face, Brynden yelled at Little Jon and Ed, who were overly relaxed before the battle, and then fixed his eyes on Earl Tytos' troops that had been broken through by the enemy.

Little Jon and Ed looked at each other and immediately sorted out their expressions, then led their respective cavalry troops to disperse left and right.

The number of cavalry units of the combined army that launched the raid from the west of the battlefield was around 1000.

They were composed of the [-] northern cavalry left in Lannisport by Robb, the [-] cavalry stationed at the Golden Tooth City by Ed, and the [-] Riverrun cavalry gathered after Brynden joined Lord Tytos. .

Among them, Brynden led [-] heavy cavalry as a killer to charge from the front.And Little Jon and Eddard each led four thousand light cavalry to attack from both wings.

When the heavy cavalry approached with the momentum of crushing all enemies, the first to escape was the vanguard commander who had been commanding at the rear.

Before he became a refugee, he was an officer in the Stormlands, so he naturally understood what would happen to the mob under his command if they were charged by nearly ten thousand cavalry.

Therefore, he took his direct soldiers and fled behind him without hesitation.Now their only way of survival is the main force of more than [-] troops that is about to arrive on the battlefield.

Seeing the general fleeing without a fight, the rebel soldiers at the rear immediately reacted from the overwhelming cavalry deterrence.Immediately afterwards, he also began to flee.

I saw that the rebel army, which had already torn apart the defense circle of the joint army, seemed to be split.

The soldiers of the rebel army in the front were concentrating on fighting fiercely with the soldiers of the coalition army, while the soldiers of the rebel army in the rear were fleeing like a flood.

Whoo, whoo, whoo!
The straight-line charged heavy cavalry crashed into a large number of rebel soldiers unstoppably.A large number of bodies or parts of them were directly knocked into the air.

The many rebel soldiers standing in front of the heavy cavalry were like a pair of dominoes, easily pushing down a large area.

Tear, rip!
The rebel soldiers who entered the defense circle heard the sound and wanted to turn around and run away.But the infantrymen of the joint army, who were also inspired by the reinforcements, immediately started to counterattack, biting them tightly.

Whoa, whoa!
Hahaha, cool!
When the Little Jon's troops on the left flank arrived on the battlefield, they found that most of the enemy troops had begun to flee.Of course, he would not easily let go of this opportunity to beat the dog in the water.

So decisively led the cavalry unit under his command to chase the deserters, and he himself laughed heartily and kept harvesting the lives of the enemy with the steel spear in his hand.

Ed, who circled around on the right, was different from Little Jon. He immediately chose to attack the rebel soldiers who wanted to flee, but were bitten by Earl Tytos' troops.

The situation on the battlefield changed again, as Brynden and Littlejon pursued the fleeing mass of enemy troops.And Earl Tytos and Ed's troops wiped out the small number of enemy troops who were entangled.

Originally there were more than 7 rebels without banners left, but they were easily defeated by more than [-] cavalry troops of the combined army!

"The whole army slows down!"

For some unknown reason, Brynden, who was charging at the forefront, suddenly raised his hand and ordered the entire army to slow down.

You must know that the heavy cavalry troops rely on their charging speed to fully exert their power.On the battlefield, the moment they stop is the moment they die.

When Brynden's order was issued, not only the heavy cavalry troops in front, but also the Little Jon troops who were fighting in the rear also began to slow down, as if they were waiting to see what happened.

"Run, run away! The enemy has tens of thousands of elite cavalry, how can we beat them!"

After the vanguard commander approached the main force with his direct soldiers, he loudly exaggerated the enemy's strength.

The soldiers of the main force at the front, who were attacked by a large number of their own routs, immediately turned around and fled after hearing this.For fear of running slower than others.

Seeing that the soldiers in the front row of the main force also started to run away, the commander of the vanguard force couldn't help but nodded with a smile.

Since everyone fled the battle, the law does not blame everyone!It is impossible for the supervisory team to kill all the soldiers of this number!

Brynden was also smiling and nodding. He watched the main force of the No Banners Rebel Army, which was attacked by the fleeing soldiers, also start to flee, with a rare smile on his face.

As a well-known veteran who has become famous since the Battle of the Nine Copper Kings, Brynden has greatly improved his layout and vision of the war after he often heard some famous battles in his previous life taught by Robb in the form of stories.

In this battle with the rebel refugee army, he knew the horror of the opponent's 30 to [-] troops.But it also understands the fatal flaw of an ill-trained army of rebel refugees.

Therefore, in this battle of the Crossroads Plain, he first let Earl Tytos lead the infantry to form a defensive circle to lure the enemy's vanguard troops into a siege.

Then when the enemy's main force approached, he launched a group charge with nearly [-] cavalry troops who pinned their hopes on victory.

If the timing is wrong, or if the enemy's main force is not overwhelmed.Then, he can only abandon the infantry unit of the joint army and retreat with the cavalry unit.

Afterwards, except for Riverrun City, the land of the River may only be taken by the army of rebel refugees, without the slightest ability to resist!

Fortunately, in the face of the tens of thousands of steel torrents of the United Army, the enemy troops began to flee as expected, and they also smashed the main force very smoothly.

"Come on! The enemy is defeated!"

"Kill them all, put their heads on the point of the gun!"

"Run away! Lives matter!"

Seeing that the situation on the battlefield was very good, Brynden and Ed's cavalry troops continued to press forward, forcing the fleeing vanguard soldiers to continue to attack the main enemy force.

At the same time, they continued to add fuel to the fire and shouted loudly behind these fleeing soldiers.

When the tens of thousands of vanguard soldiers heard the shouts, they really ran away in the direction of the main force with all their strength.

There are constantly unlucky people in the crowd who are squeezed by others or fall by themselves.After they fell, they were trampled heavily by countless friendly forces, and eventually turned into lumps of limp flesh.

After the front army of the main force began to flee, the supervisor team behind them reacted immediately and drew their swords to prevent a bigger rout.

Facing the supervisor team with swords, these fleeing soldiers did not dare to resist at all, but compared to the tens of thousands of fleeing soldiers, the supervisor team with less than a thousand people could not kill them, and it was completely useless.

In the end, the fleeing soldiers of the vanguard engulfed the former soldiers of the main force, forming an avalanche-like rout.
