Academy Genius Commander
Chapter 436
436 – Battle of Benedict Plains (5)
After the mechanical crossbow was fired, a hellish scene unfolded.
“Ugh!”
“Does this make sense?”
“Mom, f*ck! Fall! Mom!”
Crossbow arrows pierced through knights and horses wearing steel armor.
Blood and pieces of meat from horses and people splattered everywhere, and the screams from people and horses exploded all at once.
From noble mtl dot com
Knights who lost their fighting ability due to death or injury fell from their horses and died, or were put in the miserable position of waiting for death in pain.
Even after being hit by a crossbow, the large and physically strong horses continued to run, but their speed soon slowed down significantly.
Then his legs twisted and he fell, and many of the knights who followed him were unable to avoid them and turned them into minced meat, regardless of whether they were horses or people.
However, those who survived the onslaught of over 4,000 crossbow arrows could not feel at ease either.
“f*ck, stop! Peter, stop!!!”
“A horse is a creature that can be stopped so easily?!”
“No, I don’t want to die!”
In front of their eyes, the bodies of horses and knights who had just been killed by crossbow bolts were blocking the path like a small hill, and the horses they were riding…
“Step on it and pass by! Even if those who die must die, those who will live must live!”
No matter how much the owner urged them to do so, there were horses that were reluctant to step on the obstacles in front of them and pass by.
And the price was that he was hit and fell by a horse running behind him.
“Sal, save me.”
The vanguard of Francois’s knights was first seriously damaged by the crossbows fired by the Empire’s archers, and was later hit by our troops chasing behind them, causing damage that was close to annihilation.
Formation is important for both infantry and knights, but especially in the knights’ charge, if the formation is broken, their strength drops to less than half.
Franco and his knights could not be expected to fight properly until they reorganized their formation.
When Clemont watched this scene, he covered his mouth with one hand and cried out bitterly.
“f*ck! Peter Yeger Lee Koe, digging his eyes and chopped and soaked salted fish! “
“Calm down, Deputy Commander. “The enemy knights are still charging at us!”
“aaah! f*ck! Formation! Reorganize your formation somehow! If we continue like this, we will all die!”
According to that order, Francois’ knights had to bury their comrade’s death in their hearts and immediately reorganize their formation.
“If you don’t want to die, reorganize your formation!”
“Shouldn’t we just run away? Look over there, there are enemy knights running, kicking up dust, right?”
“Shut up, damn it. If you don’t follow orders, you will die now, but if you follow orders, you may live. “Are you talking because you don’t know?”
The orders issued by Clermont were the best that Francois and his army could have taken in this situation.
However, the problem is that even if you reorganize your formation when you have already been trained in crossbows, it is difficult to expect much effect.
Anya, who was watching this from afar, smiled.
“Our Grand Marshal said so. “In war, the enemy’s misfortune is my happiness.”
As she said, Anya, as the commander, was truly happy about Clemont’s misfortune.
In normal times, she was a good person who offered help and support to those who were struggling and unhappy, but as a commander in war, she…
He was a man who was completely faithful to the idea that ‘the enemy’s misfortune is the ally’s happiness.’
“Brave knights of the Reich Empire, the time has come to strike the Emperor’s mace against those Francois slugs! Speed up!”
Then her knights who followed her cheered when they saw her.
“Long live the great emperor! Long live the Reich Reich!”
“Let’s step on all the Francois slugs without leaving a single one behind!”
“Let’s prove here today that the knights of the Empire are superior to those Francois!”
At the same time as those words were said, the horses, which had been running at about 8 km per hour, gradually increased their speed.
The sound of the horse’s hooves, which had been heard as a clatter, suddenly changed to a clatter sound.
“Long live the Reich Empire!”
The knights at the vanguard shouted “Long Live the Empire” And were unable to reorganize their formation before they attacked François and his knights.
The horse stabbed by the lance was turned into a skewer, and the Francois knights in armor were pushed by the lance and flew far into the sky.
“Hee hee hee!”
“Ugh, no!”
“Fly!”
After the flight, those who fell to the ground due to the force of gravity were, as always, trampled to death by the hooves of friendly or enemy horses.
“Mom, Maria…”
“It hurts, help me…”
“I’d rather kill you, ugh.”
An operation to completely defeat the enemy knights at the forefront using mechanical crossbows, and then attack the enemy knights who were running with their formations broken with lance charging.
With the success of this operation, François and his knights completely lost the momentum that only ten minutes ago had shown them confidently, as if they were ready to defeat anyone, whether the Reich Army or the Army of Heaven.
I was in a state of hesitation, like a critically ill patient who would not be surprised if I died at any time.
The knights’ eyes have completely lost their vitality and vitality, and they have completely lost the will to fight…
“What should we do, Captain Kergit?”
At those words, Anastasia Kergit took off her helmet, snorted and spoke.
“The Imperial Army respects customs. Arrest those who surrender, and kill those who do not.”
“If that happens, I think it will be difficult to carry out the strategy of flanking the infantry that you mentioned earlier…”
“You can leave it to Captain Laura. “The original plan was for him to lead the right wing of his infantry and catch the enemy infantry off guard.”
At this time, Anya felt a little regretful that she had to give up the military credit to Laura, but what actually came out of her mouth was that she was giving up the military credit to ‘another ally.’
Her officers who followed her praised her, their eyes sparkling with respect.
“You put aside your greed as a military officer for the success of the operation. I really respect you.”
“I will only trust Captain Kergit!”
“It is an honor to be able to follow someone like you.”
Anya waved her hand.
“Stop flattering and send a messenger to Captain Laura.”
The news that François and her knights were annihilated was first delivered to Laura.
“Here’s a report, Captain Benner! It is said that the archers and knights led by Captain Kergit annihilated the Francois knights. “The remaining knights are currently being captured.”
When Laura heard her say those words, she felt a boiling jealousy.
‘If things continue like this, Anya will have our enemy’s night all to herself.’
It’s not like something big will happen, but I think in a few months, Anya might pat her slightly swollen belly and brag about having a second child…
Laura’s fighting spirit burned, telling her that she couldn’t afford to lose like this.
‘Even if I have a second child, I, Laura von Wehner, will be the first to become pregnant with the second child.’
In a noble family, having too many children is usually a problem, but the Jaeger Duke family is having more children and will have to split up their territory even more…
The more children that are the crystal of love, the better.
“Major Karl!”
Carol responded to those words with a high level of discipline.
“Major Carl von Falcon, commander of the 18th Battalion!”
“You can’t lose to Captain Anastasia in military combat.”
When other officers and staff around Laura heard that, they misunderstood that the two were engaged in a friendly competition.
“As expected, it’s Captain Laura. “You are very greedy as a soldier.”
“I don’t know if you will be promoted to a senior captain this time.”
“It was a good thing I followed this person…”
However, Karl, who had a close relationship with Grand Marshal Jaeger, saw it a little differently.
‘Those two people are trying to fight over who will achieve greater achievements and win His Excellency’s favor.’
“Yes, Captain!”
“I will take the lead. “I expect more performance than Bastion.”
Karl, who had achieved the rank of major at only 20 years old and was being compared to Peter Jaeger even within the Empire, felt the burden that was crushing on his shoulders.

And the surrounding staff and commanders were also thinking…
‘This is Major Karl from Bastion, so he will show performance that exceeds our expectations, right?’
Karl gave up something important at this time.
“Yes, Captain! Please trust us!”
“Good, the right wing of the Imperial Army’s infantry is moving according to plan as of the current time! “Turn the unit to the right angle!”
According to Laura’s orders, Carol took the lead.
Soon, the right wing of the imperial army faced the enemy army, which was struggling.
“Save people! “Platoon leader, is this crazy?”
“Desertion from enemy combat is a violation of military law!”
“Hold on with your spear! Long live the proud Francois Republic!”
When Carol saw the messed up state of the enemy she encountered, she sighed in bewilderment.
“When I fought in Bastion, the situation was more terrible than this, but I fought without backing down…”
An old friend of Carol’s who was next to him, who has now graduated from the academy and has become a second lieutenant, sighed and answered.
“Major, our commander at that time was none other than the Generalissimo.”
“Ah.”
“That’s right.”
99% Of the people who rise to the rank of commander in any country’s military are competent commanders, but Peter Yeager was a monster who turned them all into squids.
“Commander Vanguard! Commander Vanguard!”
After hearing that, my so-called sweet friend Marcus looked dumbfounded and stopped me.
“Battalion Commander!”
However, Major Karl, who was completely influenced by Peter Jaeger, did not listen to those words.
Of course, it was based on the premise that ‘the enemy is in panic, so it is worth a try’…
“Commander Seonbong, if you are unfairly treated, get ahead! Long live the Reich Reich!”
