His Royal Highness the Crown Prince personally beat the drums and cheered, which boosted the morale of the Rhodrian cavalry.
The cavalry happily charged the defeated rebel array again and again, galloping back and forth on the battlefield at will, wielding sabers and cavalry spears to harvest the rebels' heads.
Although this Rhodrian cavalry has also been rebuilt, but after all, it has also maintained a large number of old shelves, these experienced elites on the battlefield are cunning and ruthless, often after the rebels' arrays are broken down, a little reorganized, and finally organize a little defensive posture, and suddenly these rushing cavalry turned around and re-dispersed, so after three times and twice, the rebels can no longer organize decent resistance.
Seeing that the army in the battle was defeated, the rebels in the rear camp also tried to organize reinforcements to go up, but the dispatch of the Rhodría cavalry was very cunning, perhaps this cunning style was a new change brought about by the arrival of the fat Ruhr.
In the past, the charge of the Rhodría cavalry was full of the courage to move forward and die if you did not advance.
And now, it seems to have turned into a poisonous snake, biting down one bite at a time, the mouth is deadly, the ruthless energy has not diminished at all, and it also specifically picks the weakest point of the rebels and fights desperately.
Especially after defeating the 10,000-strong phalanx of the rebels, two groups of cavalry were quickly separated from the two flanks, and the flanks detoured behind the rout, outflanking and besieging them, and then wantonly interspersed back and forth, and a slaughter had already formed on the battlefield.
The rebel contingent that rushed out of the camp to meet was blocked by the roundabout Rodria cavalry, and there was no chance to get out at all.
And the Rodria cavalry, which had returned to the back, also made a gesture of feint to attack the rebel camp from time to time, forcing the defenders in the rebel camp to desperately release arrows before the Rodria cavalry did not dare to move forward.
When the rebels finally rescued more and more troops in the camp, they accumulated to a certain number, and at this time, the Rhodria cavalry was not entangled with the other party, and after a period of military trumpets, the cavalry after the roundabout ride happily interspersed from the battlefield, by the way, slaughtered the rout on the battlefield again, and then calmly withdrew.
The whole 10,000 rebels, who suffered such a big loss, left a third of the corpses on the battlefield, the battlefield was full of mourning, there were cries and shouts everywhere, and some scattered routs also gathered in twos and threes, and finally had a chance to escape, so they went crazy and ran towards their own camp.
It was only half an hour's effort, and a charge of the Rhodría cavalry directly crippled the rebels' phalanx of 10,000 people, and those who ran back alive were still intact, almost less than one-tenth.
On the high ground in the distance, the cheers of the Rhodrian cavalry were heard from afar, and then about two hundred cavalry rushed to the battlefield, and these cavalrymen jumped off their horses as if no one was around, and they did not even look at the rebel camp only a hundred meters away, and began to sweep the battlefield.
It is also a tradition on the continent that after another battle between the two warring sides, the victorious side has the right to prioritize the work of clearing the battlefield.
The work of cleaning up the battlefield includes rescuing the wounded soldiers on their own side, and at the same time, if the enemy's wounded soldiers are found, if they are of high rank, they will be captured immediately, and as for the low-level soldiers, they are often made up It can be said that the side that clears the battlefield first will often take the opportunity to expand a lot of gains.
The tradition on the mainland has always been that the strong are respected, and the side that wins the battle has the right to clear the battlefield first, and at this time, the defeated side is not allowed to send troops to fight, otherwise it will be regarded as a coward's behavior.
Seeing that because of his carelessness, a team of 10,000 people was crippled in just such a short time, Hughes, who was standing on the lookout, felt great pain in his heart, and his eyes were a little black under his anger The 10,000 people who went out of the battalion were all their own Armenian troops I have been in a few times before, starting from Adric, and then Sosia and Butler, all deliberately used the banner and military horn of the Rhodria cavalry to coax themselves, but Hughes was deceived too many times, and he was naturally paralyzed, this time the real Rodria cavalry killed, he was also careless, and thought it was the enemy's trick, and only sent 10,000 people out under the light enemy, wanting to pick up a bargain, but he didn't expect to lose so much strength in vain.
At this moment, seeing that the Rhodrian cavalry sent people to clean up the battlefield, how could Hughes not know this tradition, his heart ached, his army lost some troops in the previous siege because he was too greedy and rash to attack the city, and today he lost thousands of people at once.
How to let him not feel distressed You must know that no matter where in this world, the strong are respected, and everything is spoken by strength.
Although he has a lot of status in the Red Round Table, if his strength is too damaged, he is afraid that his status will be difficult to protect.
Although all the governors are in the same boat through thick and thin at this moment, it is the honeymoon period of cooperation, and it is far from the time to turn around.
But everyone understands that when it comes time to divide the cake after the war, only a strong military region can share more spoils.
What's more, he has been attacking the city for so many days, and the loss of troops is only three or five thousand.
But today he was rushed by the Rhodrian cavalry, but he lost so many people in one hour, how could he not feel distressed Just as he was about to vomit blood, suddenly a subordinate next to him whispered: "Ah, my lord, look at those Rhodrian cavalry did not kill our wounded soldiers" Well Hughes looked up into the distance, and sure enough, the Rodria cavalry who was sweeping the battlefield just dismounted and carefully searched back and forth on the battlefield, and found as many cavalry as possible on his side that were wounded and fallen in the battle just now, and carried these wounded soldiers back, but for the wounded soldiers of the rebels lying on the battlefield, they did not pull out their knives to make up for them, and they didn't even look at them.
Is this Ruhl so kind?
"General, why be soft on these rebels" On the high ground, a young officer beside Ruhl seemed to be a little dissatisfied, and said in a low voice: "These rebels are innocent, why don't you let our people go up and make up for it?"
Ruhl was riding on his horse, the smug expression on his face had long faded, he squinted at the battlefield with a pair of small eyes, and suddenly sighed softly: "Forget about killing and killing, the dead are all Byzantines."
Win or lose this time, give Byzantium some energy. ” When the young officer beside him heard this, a trace of strangeness flashed in his eyes, as if he had something to say, but finally hesitated and closed his mouth.
"I know, you must think I'm indecisive, a woman's kindness, don't you" Ruhl sneered.
The officer immediately bowed his head: "My lord, I don't dare. ” "Don't dare, that's really what you think" Ruer snorted, and then said in a low voice: "Stupid, it's naturally easy to kill, and there will be no trouble with a knife."
But don't you understand that these wounded soldiers have lost their combat effectiveness anyway, if you don't kill them, let the rebels rescue these wounded soldiers, they will inevitably have to allocate some manpower to take care of the wounded soldiers, and they will consume more medicinal materials and materials, which is the strategy of the weak enemy" At this time, the crown prince, who had taken off his shirt and beat the drum, had already dropped the drum hammer and ran back, he casually draped his battle robe on his body, let his golden hair be so wild and scattered, turned over his horse, and rushed to the battlefield.
I saw Garcia riding his horse in a circle in front of the formation, and then raised his saber and shouted, and the war horse suddenly raised its front hooves.
The crown prince shouted on his horse: "Our army is mighty and invincible."
Just now, the cavalry charged, and the behavior of the crown prince behind him personally holding the hammer and beating the drum to cheer was almost in the eyes of the whole army.
And I have to say that at this time, from the perspective of the officers and soldiers of the middle and lower classes, this Royal Highness Garcia has the halo of the crown prince on his head after all, and that is the respect of the future emperor Ah, with the respect of the future emperor, he is actually willing to go to the front line, put down his noble posture, and beat the drum with his own hands to cheer for the soldiers, this practice has undoubtedly greatly increased the goodwill of many soldiers towards His Royal Highness the crown prince.
And at this moment, he galloped in front of the battle, as a commander, to make such a behavior, it is a very uplifting thing, he was provoked, and immediately the army responded, and the cavalry immediately cheered and roared: "Mighty and invincible" The chanting voice was shouted seven or eight times before it gradually dispersed.
And at this time, the eyes of the soldiers looking at the crown prince were already very different.
"Alas, the wise Crown Prince."
It was the young officer beside Ruhr again, who saw the scene in his eyes and sighed in a low voice.
Ruhl raised his eyebrows and glanced at this subordinate: "What did you say" "General, can't you see that Your Highness is buying the hearts of the army?"
The young officer leaned close to Ruhr's side and said in a low voice: "Recently, His Highness has been training with the soldiers in the army, and he has also shared weal and woe with the soldiers on the road. ” After a pause, the young officer's eyes became a little complicated: "Originally, in the hearts of low-level soldiers, the identity of the crown prince was simply as supreme and noble as a god.
And at this moment, such a series of actions of His Royal Highness have greatly won the hearts of the military. ” "It's also a good thing that His Highness has the heart of the army."
Ruhl's face was flat, as if he had said this casually.
The young officer raised his eyelids and glanced at Ruhr, hesitated for a moment, and continued: "But my lord, Your Highness has robbed the army one by one, and you are the commander of the first army. ” When Ruer heard this, he immediately narrowed his eyes, and a cold light flashed in his eyes, enveloping the young officer: "Hmph, you have a lot of courage to speak." ” The young officer was blinded by Ruhl's eyes, but he was not afraid, and said slowly: "My lord, I don't mean anything else, but this is the most delicate time.
Historically, the royal family has not personally taken charge of the army, even the Lance Emperor himself, when he personally conquered the battlefield in the past, he would not easily take away the command of the generals under his subordinates. ” "What the hell are you trying to say" Ruhl plucked his ears and sneered.

The young officer gritted his teeth and glanced left and right, surrounded by Ruhr's closest personal guards, and standing far away from the two of them, before he finally whispered: "Dare to ask your lordship, what are your chances of winning this battle against Osgilia?"
Ruhl stared at the young officer, who bravely met Ruhl's eyes.
Finally, after a while, Ruhl shook his head: "The odds are not good. ” When the young officer heard this, he raised his eyebrows: "My lord didn't tell the truth, and from the perspective of his subordinates, the chances of winning are not small, but they are simply very small." ” "Oh," Ruhl said with a smirk on his face.
"Not bad."
The young officer groaned slightly: "With the current situation, although Osgilia has now gathered the three corps of the Imperial Central Army, plus the defenders of the city and the Imperial Forest Army, the strength has reached 100,000 people.
It stands to reason that although the rebels claim to have more than 300,000 troops, Osgilia is the first male city on the mainland, and if there are 100,000 troops defending it, let alone 300,000, even if it is doubled, it may not be able to capture it.
It seems that the situation is quite optimistic, but you naturally know in your heart that in fact, we are at an absolute disadvantage. ” "What do you say?"
Ruhl closed his eyes.
"Although we have 100,000 troops, they are all rootless rebels, 300,000 soldiers, and all around Osgilia are occupied by rebels, and we are close to Armenia.
They can replenish the material resources continuously.
But what about us, we are far away from the station, we have traveled a long way to help Yanjing, there is no place for Osgilia to be besieged, we are trapped here, no longer get foreign supplies, say a bad word, and don't say anything else, not more, as long as the two sides spend a month, once our army is exhausted, even if our Rodria cavalry can fight again, with an empty stomach, the war horse can't run, and we are cavalry, and the cost of cavalry is much greater than that of infantry" Speaking of which, The young officer cautiously looked at Ruhr's face before continuing: "So, from the perspective of his subordinates, this battle can be described as a lot of bad luck for the empire.
We don't have a chance to win. ” "Go on."
Ruhl remained expressionless, but his eyes were closed.
"Knowing that it is a battle that will be lost in the nineteenth century, my lord, you understand it in your heart, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is also a smart person, how can you not understand and, from the perspective of your subordinates, why didn't Your Majesty send the crown prince to our army in the first place, why didn't you go anywhere else, but you chose our Rhodria cavalry corps It is not precisely because the Rhodria cavalry is the strongest army in the empire, and its strength is the highest in the empire.
His Majesty sent the Crown Prince to us, on the one hand, to protect the Crown Prince, and on the other hand, to keep a back hand. ” "Backhand" Ruhl smiled.
The young officer's eyes flashed, and he said slowly: "I have carefully calculated these words, and I always feel that His Majesty's recent series of actions make people deeply admire him, as if he had planned to break with the warlord's henchmen in advance, and he knew that once the war started, Yanjing would definitely be surrounded."
So he let the crown prince leave Yanjing in advance and sent him to protect the strongest Rhoderian cavalry corps in the empire.
At the same time, it is also a backhand, once something happens to Yanjing, then, then" Listening to the tone of this subordinate, Ruhl sneered: "After saying so much, why don't you dare to continue to talk about it here?"
The young officer's face changed, and he finally felt a chord in his heart, gritted his teeth and said: "Once something happens to Yanjing, if Your Majesty is in any danger, then as long as the crown prince is still there, he can succeed at any time, and in the name of the new emperor, he will lead all parties loyal to the empire to continue to resist the rebellion."
And at that time, the new emperor will succeed to the throne, if he doesn't have an army that can only be used in his hands, how can he convince many strengths, how can he suppress the scene, as for the choice, is there a better choice than the Rhodria cavalry, as long as His Royal Highness controls the Rhodria cavalry in his hands, firmly controls this army, and stands on his prestige, then" "We were originally loyal to the empire, and it is not a bad thing for the crown prince to win the hearts of the army."
Ruhl's tone of understatement made the officer look dissatisfied, and he frowned: "My lord, that's not what he said.
I have no second intentions for the Empire, but Your Highness's actions are obviously on guard against you, otherwise, why would Your Highness have been pretending to do so much recently, sending us to fight for the Empire, but Your Highness is suspicious of you, which makes people's hearts cold."
"Okay" Ruhl's face suddenly became stern, and after a snort, seeing that the young officer lowered his head, Ruhl's face sank like water, and he said lightly: "The art of the emperor, how can it be that you understand that even if you are a loyal courtier, as a king, it is impossible to pin your hopes only on the loyalty of others, hmph, the human heart is the most unreliable thing in this world."
Unless it is really grasped in his own hands, otherwise, with only the ethereal human heart, a few emperors dare to really rest assured" "Yes, my subordinates have been taught."
The young officer bowed his head.
Ruer stared at this subordinate, stared for a moment, and his tone was a little softer: "You are a recent graduate of the Imperial Affairs Academy, and your studies are also outstanding, and that mad dog of Green recommended you to me before leaving, and it was not wrong to recommend you."
You guy, you are cautious, you are also a good learner of military strategy, you are a talent that can be created, I originally wanted to cultivate you well, but I have a few words of warning today, you give me a firm memory, it is best to engrave it tightly in my heart, engrave it to death for me, engrave it deeply, and never forget to remind myself all the time" "Your Excellency, please speak."
Ruhl's tone remained calm, but his eyes grew stern "To be a man, it's better to be simple-minded, especially for us soldiers, remember that your identity is a soldier, not a politician, some things are considered by politicians, and as a soldier, you shouldn't go to the whole analysis and study these things, you are indeed very smart, but you must also understand that for politics This kind of thing, often sometimes, the smarter the person, the faster he dies, since he is a soldier, he should defend the duty of a soldier and study these things, the army is not the army, the government is not political, and those warlord parties, what is the difference" In the end, there was already some noise.
The young officer ate Ruhr's last reprimand, but he didn't look much fear, just bowed his head and saluted respectfully, smiled calmly, but his eyes were still calm, and said slowly: "Yes, my subordinates will definitely keep these words in their hearts and never dare to forget." ” Ruhr looked at the young man, and finally the sharpness in his eyes narrowed little by little, and then smiled: "Let's go, follow me to welcome His Royal Highness the Crown Prince back."
Today's battle is over, the rebels will not be dispatched again, everyone take a rest and come to fight again. ” As he spoke, the fat man rode his horse first, but after taking two steps, he suddenly turned back and looked at the young officer and smiled: "Reinhardt, I remember that your name seems to be the surname of the southerners of the empire, well, it is also called the heart of the lion, right?"
When the young officer heard this, he was slightly stunned, and then he smiled and said, "Yes, my lord, I am from the south. ” "Well, I heard that the year before last, Cavihill was once dragged by your dean to open a course in the military academy, but he only taught it for half a year, so there is such a thing."
When Reinhardt heard this, a smile appeared on his face, but he met Ruhr's eyes, did not dodge at all, and his tone was very calm: "Yes, my lord."
I also went to Mr.
Cavihill's class.
Mr.
Cavihill was very knowledgeable, and I and many other students were deeply respected, and when I asked Mr.
Cavihill privately about some questions, he never put on a show, and was peaceful and approachable.
I am grateful to him for his teachings and treat him with courtesy. ” When Ruhl heard this, a hint of "sure enough" flashed in his eyes, and he didn't speak at the moment, but laughed twice and slowly walked away.
Hum Kavehill, he actually stretched out his hand to the Imperial Academy.
This old thing, the hands are too long, in the camp of the rebels, Hughes was originally annoyed, but when he returned to the tent, the anger on his face had subsided.
This ability, even El Salvador saw it in his eyes, and he admired and was vigilant in his heart.
When other governors came to comfort him, Hughes smiled boldly, "You don't need to comfort me.
I was a little angry at first, but now, I don't think it's a loss at all.
It took a few thousand people to find out the depth of the strength of the Rhodrian cavalry, and this price is worth it" Then Hughes also spoke: "I have an idea, starting tomorrow to let the rear battalion according to the different soldiers, deliberately show weakness, it is better to get out of the way of the road and let the Rhodrian cavalry into the city." ” It was difficult enough to let the Rhodrian cavalry enter the city, and then such a strong army entered the city of Osgilia, wouldn't it be even more aside, Salvador listened, his eyes lit up, and he looked at Hughes and laughed a few times: "Clever" To be continued 〗Hanyu Pinyin "" is simple and easy to remember:
