Chapter 447: The Powerful Summoning Golem
The charge of this group of heavy-armored cavalry had finally begun.
A terrifying roar sounded. It was as if a flood had been released. With the top-notch strength of the Sarrandian people, they began to charge towards the area of the Riesnidon River bandits as if they were venting.
Kant was at the front. His delicate and well-proportioned palm was already gripping the hilt of his sword.
The mages were reporting.
Right in front.
They had sensed the aura of a spellcaster as well.
Although it had been concealed, they could still clearly sense that the spellcaster’s aura came from the dark red sect. This was because only those forces that often came into contact with demons could have such a dense demonic elemental aura!
Moreover, among the Reisneston River Bandits, there were more than five Grand Knights!
This was not a threat to Kant.
It was just an appetizer.
Even the evil priests of the 30-odd dark red cult were simply food for him.
The reason why Kant could tolerate these guys and line up here leisurely was because he wanted to intimidate the n.o.bles of the eastern county or the Dukedom of Leo!
He needed a very direct and straightforward victory to establish his authority.
And it was here!
He needed to let those n.o.ble families know who would be the future king of the Eastern County!
The Mamlukes had already charged forward, but he was 100 meters away. He did not directly charge into the spear formation set up by the elite lance soldiers of the silver platter kingdom.
Even the heavy cavalry that had armor on both horse and man could not directly charge into such a formation.
Even if they could easily break through like a hammer.
However.
The subsequent damage would still cause casualties.
The inertia of the heavy cavalry when charging was invincible. However, the long lance that was erected could also be inserted into the chest of the heavy cavalry. It completely ignored the excellent double-layer chain armor, causing the precious Mamluke to suffer heavy casualties.
This was because the effects of force were mutual.
The charge could exert force.
However, the inertia brought by the charge also added a reaction force when it came into contact with the long lance.
This was why the phalanx of long lance could effectively obstruct the charge of the cavalry. Even the well-equipped and terrifying heavy cavalry like the Mamluke and the Swadian knight did not dare to directly charge into the front of the phalanx of long lance.
Even if they could tear through the phalanx, the casualties on their side would not be small!
A wise commander would not directly charge into the phalanx of the lance.
On the contrary.
To an excellent cavalry commander.
The front of the phalanx of the lance was indeed powerful, but in comparison, the sides and rear had lost the protection of the dense spears. It was much easier to charge and attack.
As long as they broke through one point, the entire front of the lance formation would collapse.
As a powerful cavalry country.
Swadia, Sarrandian, and Kujit all understood this very well.
Without Kant’s command, the Mamluke had already split into three groups and charged toward the two sides of the Lance Formation. Like cannonb.a.l.l.s, they smashed heavily toward the Reisneston River Pirates.
The pirates on both sides did not have the protection of the lance formation, not to mention that they had already been smashed into pieces by the Sarrandian Horseman.
They were like the best targets!
As for the front.
There were still 300 Mamlukes waiting for orders within an 80-meter radius.
The battle cries continued, and the entire rear, the petal-shaped formation, had already begun to turn chaotic. Especially the Reisneston River pirates who were fighting on their own, they were easily ma.s.sacred by the cannonball-like Mamlukes who had just charged in.
They stabbed with lances, struck heavily with iron staffs in both hands, and hacked with scimitars.
The pirates were also fighting back.
However, the longsword and scimitars in their hands, even short spears and handaxes, could not cause too many casualties.
Sarrandian horseman and these level 4 cavalry warhorses did not wear armor. Thus, when faced with the pirate’s intentional injuring of their warhorses, they were still somewhat cautious. During this period of time, close to a hundred cavalry soldiers were forced to abandon their warhorses that had died.., they drew close to each other, holding their round s.h.i.+eld and machetes as they engaged in battle.
However, the Mamluke did not care. Their entire bodies were donned with fine Sarrandian chain armor, and their Warhorse was also donned with Sarrandian Warhorse armor. They were basically land tanks, charging and rampaging amongst the light infantry pirates!
No one could stop them!
Even if there were pirates fighting desperately, the swords that came slas.h.i.+ng at them would only create sparks on the chain armor.
Even the more powerful hatchets could only slightly cut through the steel chain mail. Even if there were short spears coming, they would be blocked by the steel s.h.i.+elds of the Mamlukes and handaxes.
The entire outer formation of the Reisneston River pirates had been completely eradicated, and they had even lost the possibility of integration!
The charge of the Mamlukes and their handaxes was too strong.
And in close combat, the trampling of the infantrymen was too fierce!
These heavy cavalry soldiers were even charging towards the core area of the Reisneston River Pirates. The elite pirates were also panicking and wanted to dodge, but there were few who could retaliate.
Because those elite pirates and the pirate leaders had already discovered that their greed had brought about destruction.
They had no way of resisting these terrifying heavy cavalry.
They could only be ma.s.sacred!
Even at the front, the silver platter kingdom troops, who were barely able to stabilize their formation, did not make a single move. These pirates were also filled with despair. They did not hate them, and on the contrary, they were very understanding.
If even the silver platter kingdom troops collapsed, then they would be completely ma.s.sacred.
The phalanx of long lance withstood the pressure from the front.
However.
The pirates could not withstand the onslaught from the left, right, and back!
“Let those priests go!” Finally, the leader of the pirates was furious. They were shouting at the priests of the dark red cult, demanding that they immediately use a mysterious spell in hopes of turning the situation around.
“Black Cloud Spell!”
More than 30 priests of the crimson sect cast their spells.
Their faces were also filled with anxiety, because they could also sense the deterioration of the current situation.
Therefore, these priests did not hold back. As waves of thick black clouds rushed out, large patches of blood immediately appeared on the bodies of the Riesneston River pirates at the periphery. Clearly, the black clouds were highly corrosive.
Even the Sarrandian horseman and Mamlukes, who were entangled in the black clouds, sensed that something was wrong!
“Summon nature!”
And right beside Kant, 170 mages raised their magic staffs.
They did not cast any powerful spells. Instead, among the Riesnidon River pirates and the elite lance soldiers of the silver platter kingdom, they cast the only summoning spell, summoning those terrifying golems!
The golems were made of stone and held two-handed hammers. They were 2.5 meters tall and did not have any human emotions!
The ma.s.sacre had begun!
Compared to the cavalry, these golems were more intimidating!
Because they appeared in the void, and even when they appeared, they directly crushed many pirates and lance soldiers. Then, they waved their two-handed hammers and beat up the enemies around them who were not mentally prepared!
