Chapter 491 (1/2)
Just as the steel wings intercepted the charge of the second cavalry regiment of dabion, there was also an army waiting on a hill about hundreds of meters away. However, this army does not belong to the Hastings family. Of course, it does not belong to Sean's army now. This army was transferred to Florence by Sean some time ago. Now their commander is menzo Haian.
Although mensuo was unable to personally train the army because of the short time, it is not too difficult to command the army after some powerful means.
At the moment, in addition to the menzo who commanded the army, there were Florence, Dante and other strong men responsible for protecting Florence.
Although William did not tell menzo what they should be responsible for in this battle, menzo was also a proud man. How could he tolerate accepting a territory for no reason? William sent him three thousand troops in vain, which made him feel that his dignity was damaged. If he didn't help in seizing tingqi's collar at the moment, he wouldn't be mensuo.
However, there are many situations.
It is necessary to enter tingqi Yinling, but the timing is equally important.
No matter what Florence thinks, since he is a follower of Florence and wants to help Florence expand its family, he can't let Florence's allies surpass them in comprehensive strength. Therefore, even if the steel wings were stormed and besieged by 30000 cavalry, he did not order an attack, but chose to lie dormant quietly and wait for a perfect harvest opportunity.
After all, with his current military strength, even if several gold strongmen fight, they will have to pay a heavy price to defeat the second cavalry regiment of dabion. At least there will not be many left of these 3000 soldiers. So menso made up his mind that he would not order an attack until the steel wing and the second cavalry regiment of dabion were defeated. Only in this way could he achieve the greatest victory for Florence.
However, when the second cavalry regiment of dabion collided with the steel wings, the result was completely beyond menso's expectation.
Even if he thought that William had just left the army here, he did not think that the army could stop the charge of the second cavalry regiment of dabion. At least the formation would be cut. But in fact, the steel wings really blocked the charge of the second cavalry regiment of dabion, and even caused great damage to them - almost after blocking the charge of the cavalry, it was another round of short gun throwing!
This time, not only tench, but also mensuo knew why the steel wing had to leave the last short gun.
It turned out that they had long known that the second cavalry regiment of dabion would attack here, so these short guns were left to these cavalry. Moreover, with such a distance, the throwing of these short guns will not be as wasteful as the previous two attacks. The door rope does not even need to be on the scene to know that with this resistance to the chaos and trampling on each other, coupled with the throwing of short guns, it can at least cause nearly 6000 casualties.
”It's not easy!” Mensuo gazed at the battlefield ahead and gave a heartfelt praise.
Hearing mensuo's words, the people present were slightly surprised: could the arrogant mensuo say such words?
You should know that in the * * * Kingdom, even if you saw the army trained in Turin with your own eyes, you were almost cornered by Turin. Mensuo didn't praise it. That look was a kind of disdain and ridicule. But at the moment, no matter what the people present think, they don't think the steel wing can be compared with the Turin army, but menso sincerely praised it, which is certainly surprising.
”It's really not easy.” The thin old man standing next to Florence nodded in the same tone of approval.
If menzo's praise only surprised them and didn't attract too much attention, then the thin old man's words were enough to shock people.
”Mr. bird, what are you talking about?” Florence's face also had an indescribable shock.
This thin old man has been with him since he was born in Florence. It is said that he was an orphan picked up by his mother. There is no doubt about his loyalty. Even Pepe, Nana, the huge man in a hooded cloak and the dead soldier who died in the war to protect him were all trained by this man. It can be said that if there was no old man named bode, there would be no Florence today.
Therefore, Florence certainly respects bode, who is listed as a ”guard” by Florence according to the Jihad card.
But for more than ten years since he was sensible, he rarely heard bode praise anyone. But at the moment, after seeing the steel wings blocking the charge of the two light cavalry, he gave a generous praise, and judging from the tone, it was obviously a heartfelt praise, which made Florence curious.
”You can't see that it's normal, because your strength hasn't reached a certain height.” Bode said in a deep voice, ”I think the reason why general menso would say it is not simple is that they can block the impact caused by the charging of cavalry on both sides with such a few people?”
”Indeed.” For bode, menzo also had great respect, ”even the light cavalry, but as long as it forms a scale, the impact and impact of the charge are definitely not affordable to ordinary people, not to mention that this army is not a pure heavy infantry. At best, it can only be regarded as an armed heavy shield army. At the scale of 5000 people, let alone blocking the impact of two directions at the same time, even one direction is difficult to resist. I thought that in the face of such an attack, their formation would be cut into two. ”
