448 – Soldiers from hostile countries have a hard time (4)

From noble mtl dot com

As magic and arrows poured in, the soldiers, already drunk and out of their senses, began to run wild.

Some soldiers were drunk and emotional, watching magic and arrows fly.

“hehehehe, 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.

Some of those who lost their minds foamed at the mouth as if convulsing, and most of them lost focus in their eyes and stood blankly in place…

Some even threw away their spears and ran towards the imperial troops.

“f*ck it, 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 urinated due to 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 came to their senses after hearing those words were taken aback by the sudden 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.

‘Hey, 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 quarters.’

But those with poor judgment continued to adhere to this strange command.

The reason we 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, which symbolizes 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 and smiled.

“You idiots, if I pour out magic 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 stay alert. Even if you get caught in a tiger or bear den, if you come to your senses, you can come out alive.”

I jokingly asked Yeager, who spoke a Korean proverb that I barely remember anymore.

“Isn’t this possible, since His Excellency the Marshal can kill a bear and a lion as long as he holds a sword?”

Peter Yeager could not bear to refute those words.

Not only did Anya not know this proverb, but she also thought that with her swordsmanship skills, as Anya said, she would actually win even if she were to fight a bear.

“So, Your 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.”

Cutting off his sentence in the middle, Peter Jaeger gave an order to his staff next to him.

“Chief of Engineers, how much magic do you think the camp over there will turn into a sea of fire?”

“This is where hundreds of thousands of troops stay. “It would be difficult using magic alone.”

Yager shook his head and said with regret.

“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.

No matter how roughly you make your camp, it can function as a simple fortress depending on how you use it.

The boundary is used as a kind of castle wall.

So, as Peter Yeager said, by striking only the ‘border’ and the vicinity there, it will be possible 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, Your Excellency!”

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? “Apparently, the perimeter 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, it is efficient for the ‘infantry’ that can eliminate such things to step forward first, which is why Anya said that.

“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 the fireball, a fire magic, to be launched in order to set the enemy camp on fire…

Countless fireballs were flying like comets with red tails, lighting up the dark night sky and our surroundings.

‘It may look like hellfire 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… He is the true khan…’

At the same time, she dreamed of giving birth to another child for herself and Khan, whom she admired, as her body and appearance were the same as when she was in her 20s, and her physical strength was almost the same. .

Anyway, time passed slowly and before I knew it, a report came from the magician unit.

“The magic power of the wizards has been depleted.”

“Good, I will personally lead the knights and archers. “All cavalrymen should do a final inspection before charging, and the infantrymen should follow when I give a separate signal!”

“Yes, Your Excellency!”

Peter Yeager immediately ran to the stable where his horse was standing and got on his horse.

I led my horse to the place where the archers and knights were, and 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 from his vanguard and pointed it in front of him.

“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 Grand Marshal, the head of the Reich Imperial Army, 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.

“Khan! 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 the cheers, spurred his horse, and began to run 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!”

“Save people, damn it!”

Some, or quite a few, of the soldiers threw down their spears and ran away.

In normal times, 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 away or not, every single one of you will die here!”

Peter Yeager turned the two United Kingdom soldiers in front of him into human skewers with the lance he was holding.

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.”

He stood at the forefront and said this as he slaughtered the United Kingdom army, and the knights who followed followed him in the same manner.

With a lance, he impaled the enemy like meat on a skewer, and struck them with a weight called a horse, sending them flying or turning them into mush.

“Why the imperial army…”

“Ugh, my arms, my legs!”

“Save people!”

The army of the United Kingdom was so drunk that they 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 the company members who were already dead, unable to withstand this attack.

“Peter Yeager, you f*cking bastard! “What kind of person is making a surprise attack while peace negotiations are being concluded?”

The kind General Jaeger answered by cutting off his head.

“Peace negotiations mean that we are ‘talking about peace,’ not that we have promised peace. If you want to know, know properly, you stupid officer.”
