Mage Lord: The Tech Tree is Skewed by Me

For a long time, the name of Walras' Iron Cavalry can be said to be prestigious and frightening throughout the Northern Continent.

At least in this era, cavalry can definitely be regarded as a weapon that can turn the tide of the war.

Unfortunately, there are no horses in Antolia.

The few war horses of the Antoria mercenaries alone are not enough at all.

Even though Antolia has a unique biome like the tall-footed monster bird, the problem is... that thing is just a big round head with two long legs. There is no possibility of sitting on it and using it as a mount. It's really a bit whimsical.

So, go north, return north.

But Leon needs to think carefully about how to go north.

If they really dare to go forward, then Antolia will undoubtedly fall into a dangerous situation of infantry fighting cavalry.

Although you may not necessarily lose the battle, looking at the ancient and modern times, at home and abroad, and in the Blue Star alien world, there are very few cases of using footwork to control riding. Even if you win, you will definitely pay a heavy price.

However, even so, the Antolians are not without any chance of winning.

Otherwise, Leon would never take the job of sending troops north by joking with the lives of soldiers.

Leon may not have the weapons to restrain cavalry.

But Leon can still use weapons that can resist cavalry.

As early as when he marched into the southwest highlands, he prepared a lot of good things for the Antolian militia.

For example, the easy-to-make flying stone rope, or the Antorian halberd with barbs.

And now...

Leon plans to add another layer of insurance to Antolia's soldiers.

Send an order to the Southwest Highlands. The caltrops made by the craftsmen of Antolia must be delivered within ten days!

The so-called caltrops are actually a kind of scattered obstacle made of iron spikes.

This thing can't cause much harm to infantry. At most, it can slow down the enemy's marching speed, but for cavalry...

The caltrop has four legs. No matter how it is thrown, one leg will always face upward. If the hoof of a war horse steps on it, it will feel as if it has stepped on a nail.

And in addition, as the commander of the Antolian militia, considering that the Antolian army is mainly infantry, Juan even specially designed a set of weapons with the help of Leon. It can be said that in this era It is a unique Antolian phalanx.

Therefore, even if they encounter Walras' Iron Cavalry, they may not necessarily have no chance of winning.

However, in addition to weapons that can resist cavalry, Antoria's army also needs a proper strategy!

At the military meeting in the camp, Leon said with great conviction.

Whether it is a caltrop or a halberd, no matter the military formation you have trained for a long time, there will always be a natural disadvantage when facing the cavalry, so our strategy for sending troops this time is very simple.

Harassment is the main thing, retreat is the supplement.

Unless a head-on battle is unavoidable, try not to have a head-on conflict with the army of the Kingdom of Walras!

As he spoke, the knight knights on the side unfolded a map of the Duke of Norton in front of many generals.

This was what Leon had previously begged from Count Felden.

Today, most of the troops of the Kingdom of Walras are contained in the Yichuan Valley in the southwest by the second prince Mendes.

So this time when I go north, I plan to cross the river from the east of Navarre City, bypass the frontal battlefield, rely on the mountains in the eastern part of the Principality of Norton, and go all the way north. I will use the main means of attacking the enemy's logistical supplies and garrisoning troops along the way to complete the Jimena family's dispatch of troops. The promise of going north.”

Leon's eyes swept over everyone present, and he said earnestly:

We have already occupied the land. The south bank of the Meyerson River is now the land of the Antolians.

We have no shortage of prestige. The name of the Antolian army has resounded throughout the Andal Kingdom.

So there is only one core idea in this battle, and that is to fight if you can beat them, run to the mountains if you can't beat them, and try not to have a head-on confrontation with the enemy as much as possible!

…

Yichuan Valley.

Brightly colored flags fluttered from the walls of Gravel Castle.

Noble armies from all over the Kingdom of Iderit brought crowds and noise to this fortress located in the center of the valley.

After nearly a month of rest, the arrival of a large number of reinforcements from the Kingdom of Iderit allowed the Iderit nobles to regain some fighting spirit after suffering several consecutive defeats.

It's just that compared to Leon's requirements for the Antolian army - if they can win, they can pursue the victory, if they can't, they can turn into Rufeng.

As the second prince of the Kingdom of Iderit, Mendez Francis has only one requirement for this war, and that is to win!

Even in front of everyone, Mendes has always seemed very optimistic and positive.

But in fact, if the Walras people cannot be beaten back to their hometown, then the Kingdom of Idrit will be opened wide, and what awaits the Kingdom of Idrit will only be a slow death.

Therefore, compared to the Kingdom of Andals or the Antorians, in the eyes of Prince Mendes, carving up the interests of the Principality of Norton is secondary, and driving the Kingdom of Walras back to the north is the top priority.

Fortunately, in the past few days, more and more coalition forces have arrived at the border of the Kingdom of Andal, and the southern army of the Kingdom of Andal, commanded by the Marquis of Antolia, has also occupied the land on the south bank of the Meyerson River. The army of the Kingdom of Iderit created a relatively stable rear.

The more important thing is that Earl Felden, as the envoy, brought back the promise from the south.

The invitation to send troops north agreed by Leon Jimena, Marquis of Antolia, will undoubtedly greatly reduce the military pressure faced by Idrit's army.

I hope that Marquis's record is not blown out...

Standing on the wall of Rubble Castle, Mendez Francis pondered.

Nobles always like to exaggerate their achievements.

Whether in the Kingdom of Andal or the Kingdom of Idrit, this has even become a tradition.

At the moment, Mendes can only hope that the army is indeed strong enough.

if not……

Mendes looked at the Walrasian army camp stationed not far outside the Gravel Castle, feeling a little hesitant in his heart.

He didn't know which battle would ultimately determine the direction of the war in the Principality of Norton, but what he knew was that the upcoming battle at Gravel Castle would definitely determine the future fate of the Kingdom of Idrit.

Because King Idrit has been able to dispatch almost all the troops that can be mobilized to his command.

Today's Gravel Castle has gathered almost all the available military power of the Kingdom of Iderit!

If you win, everything is fine.

If it loses, the Kingdom of Idrit may become the second Principality of Norton!

After a short period of tranquility in the early morning, the dull sound of horns came from outside the city.

The attack and defense of Gravel Castle.

The battle that could determine the fate of the Kingdom of Iderit began...

No more today.
