"In front of tens of thousands of monsters, we will smash thousands of them in one stroke. The enemy can only roar helplessly from across the river, watching our cavalry flaunt their power and then triumphantly return. This will not only demoralize the enemy but also uplift our troops."
That makes sense!
Su Li nodded, decisively said, "My Marshal, I entrust the command of this battle entirely to you. I believe that if you can smash thousands of monsters openly under everyone’s watchful eyes, and then lead the army to triumph smoothly, it will greatly boost our soldiers’ confidence in winning!"
After all, there are only tens of thousands of monsters. If we can smash over 4000 in one go, it won’t take long to completely slaughter them all.
Su Li was slightly surprised that it was not Oerstein but Hilude who was leading the troops in this battle.
This high-tier Attendant Chief mounted her massive Half Griffin, followed by mbers of the Sun of Vengeance Half-Lion Griffin Knight Order, which has grown to 12 mbers.
Then ca the glistening Hesse Forbidden Guard Knights and the Corona Knight Order, the territory’s most lavishly equipped army.
Especially for the Corona Knight Order, the knights have invested heavily in weapons and equipnt because their order’s banner, Steel Fierce Sun, grants a powerful Arcane Magic to the soldiers’ battle armor. When this fine, elegant armor is first pierced on the battlefield, the Power of the Sun contained within is triggered, unleashing a Fiery Sun Explosion akin to the Sun Goddess’ wrath, causing devastating damage to surrounding enemies.
In the current strongest state of the territory, knights wearing perfect-level Vibranium Rune Armor can trigger this "Steel Fierce Sun" magic and even directly blast 1 or 2 elite monsters to death, while non-elite monsters could be shattered into pieces, dozens of them.
All these knights are riding strong Horned Horses with one long and one short horn, possessing incredible stamina and explosive power. They rode out from the castle’s north gate, and the brilliant golden light was like a Fiery Sun rising from inside the castle, illuminating the dawn sky.
Behind them, over a thousand elite level knights held banners aloft, marching out in single file.
This is the core elite of the territory, over a thousand heavy armored knights, charging wildly, capable of brutally crushing any enemies before them.
The speed of these cavalry was extrely fast, with the 1100-man troop taking less than five minutes to all charge out of the castle, completing the assembly of their charging formation.
Hilude held the Knight’s Holy Relic - Shield Radiance of the Scorching Sun in her left hand, and raised a golden Rune Longsword in her right hand, with fierce fla burning like a radiant sun attaching to the longsword, extending beyond 2 ters in length. She shouted valiantly, "Knights, charge with my glory. The Sun Goddess will ensure we die with honor!"
"For glory!"
"For glory!"
All knights imdiately raised their lances and longswords, shouting fervently.
Under the command of the Sun Goddess’ Divine Chosen, this army of all elite level soldiers had their morale soaring high.
With Hilude’s longsword pointing forward, a thousand cavalry roared like an unstoppable tidal wave, swiftly racing toward the Black Water River along the northern outskirts of the city.
Listening to the thunderous sounds of the hooves of over a thousand heavy armored cavalry, everyone on the city walls was exhilarated! The mighty Knight Legion is the Empire’s national foundation for thousands of years.
All citizens of the Empire believe that no matter how difficult the situation, as long as the elite Knight Legions initiate a charge, everything will improve.
And this extrely elite heavy cavalry legion did indeed not disappoint any spectators; in almost an instant, they charged and flattened the first monster War Gang that rushed up, trying to block this iron cavalry charge. The engagent was entirely in the knights’ favor, crushing the defense line of over two hundred monsters like wheat.
The coalition of humans and dwarves on the city walls erupted into cheers of excitent, spreading throughout the lands.
The scene was incredibly stirring! The morale-boosting reached its peak.
In front of the heavy cavalry’s edge, the monsters’ line collapsed completely at the slightest touch, unable to delay the knights in the slightest.
This shining golden heavy cavalry pushed through like a long knife slicing through bamboo, rushing forward without hesitation through all monster obstructions, charging toward the river crossing where monsters were denser.
Moreover, this charge wasn’t a one-ti thing but occurred three tis!
The terrified monsters sent out three War Gangs one after another attempting to block the knights’ unstoppable montum, buying ti for the monsters to set up their formation. But all these efforts were futile struggles, with three blocks being broken into pieces in an instant by the knight order. The heavy armored knights stepped over the monsters’ corpses, pushing forward unyieldingly toward the monster crossing.
Su Li stood on the city wall, excitedly looking northward through his monocular.
Although the northern Central Plain is rare for its undulating terrain of foothills, it is just right, high in the south and low in the north. These 1100 cavalry initiated a charge downhill, further enhancing their charge montum with the advantage of terrain.
So, from afar, it seed like a brilliant golden longsword piercing straight into the monsters’ heart.
Moreover, since the cavalry employed a wedge-shaped sharp formation, with both armies vastly engaging, the knights charged wave after wave, hamring down relentlessly.
