Chapter 552: Well Prepared

Following Drogo's order, the Centaur troops rushed into the battlefield with great momentum.

Seeing this scene, Li Claw's face instantly darkened.

Of course he would not forget the existence of the Centaurs.

However, the Centaurs had always been surviving in the cracks, and based on the premise that the Lizardmen had won the battle and ended the war, Claws thought that the Centaurs had either been destroyed or had escaped by relying on their mobility.

However, he could not imagine that the Centaurs were actually mixed up with the Lizardmen.

This situation was truly unexpected for Li Claw.

At this time, the Centaurs' advance was so fierce that he had no time to think and quickly sent troops to intercept them.

[There is still one? ]

As of now, the scale of the rat tide of the rat army has exceeded the initial expectations of the Lizardmen.

But this is not surprising. The Lizardmen's estimate of the Ratmen's military strength was based on many previous battles, and the ones who had always fought against them were the Jikum.

Given Claw's temperament, it is of course impossible for them to hand over all the troops of their clan to the other side. They must firmly grasp a part of the troops in their own hands.

And now, Claw, as the clan leader, has personally led his troops to the front line, which means that at this moment, at least 80%, or even more than 90% of the troops of their Claw clan have been deployed here!

Under this premise, from the time he led his troops to the front line until now, Sharp Claw has been hiding in the position. He was unaware of the arrival of the other Lizardmen, so his judgment would naturally be biased.

Fortunately, this deviation did not have much impact on the Centaur clan led by Drogo.

In the words of their king, the situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly, and any unexpected situation should not be surprising. The key is to remain calm and respond accordingly.

In terms of charge ability and formation-breaking capability, the Centaurs are only stronger than human cavalry.

Since the human cavalry led by Zhou Chongshan was able to successfully break through a single wave of rats, they had no reason to be afraid.

"Just run over it from the front!"

With a loud shout, Drogo raised the crystal iron spear in his hand and began to accelerate. He planned to take the shortest route, go straight through the rat tide and attack the regular army position of the ratmen.

It happened in a flash! The two armies collided, and the Centaurs charged fiercely. The powerful impact was enough to crush the rat slaves in front of them into pieces in an instant! It was unstoppable! At the same time, receiving the order from the claws, the rat tide once again challenged the lizardmen's phalanx.

Looking at the tide of rats approaching from the flank of the battlefield, the Swift Dragon Cavalry, as the unit responsible for the safety of that side, took a short rest and took the initiative to advance to meet the attack.

Just like before, the troops of both sides soon collided head-on. At this stage, the dragoons were in good condition, and the fragile rat slave soldiers could not withstand their charge at all.

Maintaining the charging formation, the velociraptors rushed into the rat tide, trying to break through it in one go, and then, just like before, they would charge back and forth to completely defeat it! However, danger broke out at this moment, and huge figures suddenly jumped out from the surging rat tide.

"Be careful! They are the giant rat knights of the ratmen! They are attacking us mixed in with the rat tide!!"

Tash, noticing the other party's presence, immediately shouted a warning.

At the same time, the giant rat knight closest to him jumped in front of him and stabbed at him with the metal spear in his hand.

Seeing this, Tash dodged sideways, but the attack from the enemy giant rat knight obviously would not end there.

I saw that on the back of the giant rat, which was three meters long and about one meter high, there were two rat soldiers in addition to the knight himself.

While the Giant Rat Knight was controlling the giant rat to jump up and launch a leaping and stabbing attack towards Tash, the two ratmen soldiers who were also sitting on the back of the giant rat also jumped up and pounced towards Tash.

Faced with this situation, Tash was also very skilled and courageous. He immediately dropped his spear and drew his sword, chopped down the two ratmen soldiers with a series of blows.

But obviously, not every dragoon has his strength.

Even if the reminder was given in time, it could not change the reality that many dragoons fell into trouble because they were unable to resist.

Together with the rat tide, the entry of the Giant Rat Knights changed the situation on this flank battlefield to a great extent. The charging momentum of the dragoons who were impacted stagnated, and the entire charging formation showed a tendency to collapse at this moment.

Seeing the opportunity, without any additional orders, the starving rat slave soldiers around them immediately rushed forward and overwhelmed the dragoons who suddenly lost speed in the rat tide.

During this period, the Giant Rat Knights' target was not limited to the Speed ​​Dragon Riders.

After completing this round of explosive attacks, they ignored the rat slave soldiers who rushed to finish the job and directly broke away from the rat tide and gathered into a group, rushing towards the advancing phalanx of the lizardmen. This was their biggest goal this time! If they had enough time to master this battle formation, they might be able to deal with this emergency by changing the formation appropriately, but the lizardmen were just trying to catch up at the last minute and were not skilled at all.

Under this premise, compared to the front, the side of this battle formation is a weak point. Having lost the cavalry unit responsible for escorting it, the entire weakness is now fully exposed to the enemy.

Although the giant rats did not have long legs, they were incredibly fast when running. In the blink of an eye, they pounced in front of the lizardman formation.

Led by Zhou Chongshan, the Great Zhou cavalry on the other side had no time to provide support.

The Lizardman Phalanx, which was busy dealing with the rat tide in front, was suddenly attacked by the enemy cavalry on the flank. It was immediately thrown into disarray, and its originally tight formation collapsed, and a melee broke out.

Looking at the chaotic battle over there, Zhou Chongshan's face darkened. In this situation, both the enemy and our side were already fighting each other, and they couldn't even rush up to provide support.

At this point, the only thing they can do is to curb the enemy's follow-up forces that attempt to join the melee! At the same time, the Centaur troops led by Drogo were undoubtedly also attacked by the Giant Rat Knights.

But unlike the Dragoons, at that critical moment, Diak, who felt a huge threat, acted decisively, directly bypassed Drogo and ordered a war charge!

Relying on the shock wave spread by the war charge, he forcibly shook off the attacking giant rat knight and broke out in one breath.

However, what awaited them ahead was not a smooth road, but another wave of giant rat knights! Needless to say, the claws, knowing the abilities of the centaurs, were well prepared this time!
