Chapter 1269 The Situation on Both Sides
Normally speaking, once a melee breaks out, the entire combat environment will clearly be in favor of the Goblin Wolf Cavalry.
However, the previous suppression of long-range firepower was too harsh, resulting in heavy losses of troops at this stage.
The subsequent sniping by the air force was not so bad. Although it was accurate, the enemy's manpower was limited and the casualties were not great.
However, the subsequent charges launched by the Centaur Cavalry and Elf Knights added to their casualties.
Before the battle even started, the Goblin Wolf Cavalry had already been demoralized by the continuous heavy blows. Now, one by one, how much fighting spirit do they have left? They just want to escape!
Faced with this situation, Silk and Diak did not want to wipe out the enemy in one wave. It was obviously unrealistic to wipe out the enemy completely with this way of escape. They could only kill as many as possible, reduce the enemy's strength and expand their own victory.
The physical fitness of the Goblin Wolf Cavalry is relatively weak among many cavalrymen. They lack the hard power for frontal combat, and their entire combat mode is that of agile and swift skills.
However, once this approach goes out of order, the combat effectiveness will basically drop to the bottom.
Just like the Goblin Wolf Cavalry at this moment, they had almost no power to resist the crazy charge of the Centaur Cavalry and the Elf Knights.
In the chaos of the battle, the wolf cavalry general had a gloomy look on his face.
The emperor has been in a bad mood recently. With so many of his subordinates dead, if he just escaped back in disgrace, he would probably lose his life.
As the thought flashed through his mind, the wolf cavalry officer's pair of yellow eyes rolled around, and finally his sight locked onto Silk, who was in the middle of a battle, wielding a silver-steel sword.
From the perspective of the Wolf Cavalry general, Silk is obviously an officer, and his status is not low.
Under this premise, regular cavalry is obviously easier for him to deal with than centaur cavalry.
This time, if he could bring back the head of an enemy general, at least he would be able to save his own life.
As this thought flashed through his mind, the wolf cavalry officer quickly took action, holding his sword, controlling the giant wolf under his mount, and approached Silk in the chaos.
The scene was chaotic, and Silk didn't notice the approaching crisis at all, but the alien warhorse under him was alert. With a burst of rapid snorts, the alien warhorse suddenly turned its head and took Silk to look behind him.
As he turned around, the wolf cavalry officer who was sneaking up behind him suddenly came into his sight.
In an instant, Silk's expression froze, and before his brain could react, his body had already moved.
He swung the silver-steel sword in his hand, and a blue-blue slash flew out! [Swift Wind Slash!]
It happened so fast! It all happened so suddenly that the wolf cavalry officer only felt a sudden blur in front of his eyes. Before he could react, the whole world began to spin. The ruthless wind slashed and instantly split his body in two! Not to mention the wolf cavalry officer, even Silk himself did not expect this wave. His pure instinctive reaction brought him unexpected gains.
The Goblin Wolf Cavalry's defeat was now a foregone conclusion.
Compared to the outer battlefield, the situation on the main battlefield was not so smooth...
The first to go wrong were not the Smith troops who were at the front and served as the vanguard, but the Rakshasa Republican troops on the flank.
When facing the greenskins as their opponents, the gap between actual combat experience and troop strength was fully exposed at this moment. After a few short rounds of fighting, the Rakshasa Republican troops had already shown a trend of defeat.
During this time, Fisher noticed the situation here and his face turned grim.
"What a waste!"
He was happy to see the Luosha Republicans, led by Peter, suffer a setback, but the premise of all this was that he would not be implicated! At this moment, as the main force responsible for the flank battlefield, once the Luosha Republicans were defeated, the greenskins on the flank would immediately surround them, and the first to suffer would be the vanguard led by him.
Fisher would definitely avoid this kind of risk.
Smith's cavalry was obviously also aware of the situation. The two cavalry units scattered on the left and right wings were responsible for providing emergency support and dispersing the greenskin regiments. Now that they saw that the Rakshasa Republican troops were being suppressed by the greenskins, they reacted promptly and provided support immediately.
However, they had no way to charge directly into the battle groups of the two sides, unless they planned to defeat the Rakshasa Republican forces as well!
They may have this idea in their minds, but reality does not allow them to do so.
Once the melee breaks out, the cavalry units will have to find their own opportunities if they want to enter the battlefield and play a role.
Smith's cavalry, which had temporarily left the battlefield, quickly detoured after noticing the situation on the battlefield, and then cut into the battlefield directly from the rear, launching a sweep of the greenskin troops' rear forces. By blocking the greenskins' follow-up troop support, they reduced the pressure on their front-line troops.
There is no doubt that there is an effect, but the gap in their own hard power means that the Russian Republican troops are destined to have a hard time fighting.
On the other hand, on the side where the female warriors were in charge, the situation was obviously much more manageable.
The Luosha Republican troops need more support, or in other words, they need a force to come in directly to help them withstand the pressure, rather than just a charge like Smith's cavalry troops.
Conventional cavalry units are not capable of engaging the green-skinned soldiers on this battlefield.
Once they stop charging, their combat effectiveness will drop sharply.
When the time comes, they will be surrounded by greenskins and will be like being stuck in a quagmire, unable to save themselves.
Normally, the Centaur Cavalry should come in as rescuers at this time.
Peter also knew about the existence of the Centaur Cavalry, which was why he frequently sent out signals for help.
However, what he didn't know was that at this point in time, the Centaur cavalry who were on standby on the periphery had already rushed to support the rear troops and were not here at all. This made the Luosha Republican troops suffer a lot.
During this period, Peter, who should have conserved his strength, was forced to start exerting his strength. The knife in his hand swung faster and faster invisibly, constantly killing the green-skinned soldiers who rushed up.
No matter how poor the combat effectiveness of the Rakshasa Republican soldiers is, as a strong man at the Vajra Realm level, Peter's combat effectiveness is real. Those green-skinned soldiers are no match for him and they are chopped to the ground by him at the first encounter.
In the blink of an eye, Peter had killed twenty or thirty green-skinned soldiers, and the blade was covered with sticky blood! (End of this chapter)
