The setting sun is like blood.
This horrific and bloody scene on the ice sheet is reflected indifferently.
When the formation of more than 200,000 trolls is completely penetrated by the Black Cavalry, it means the end of this battle.
The fate of the defeated troll army has long been doomed. In front of the cavalry coming and going like the wind, even if they escape temporarily, they will be overtaken again sooner or later.
Many trolls were defeated by the cavalry's blades and knelt down to surrender.
This time, the Black Cavalry actually let these surrendered soldiers go. As long as they put down their weapons, they could avoid death.
This obviously also accelerated the collapse of the troll army. More and more trolls began to imitate their companions and asked for surrender from the Black Cavalry Army.
Groups of cavalry began to disperse, chasing deserters and gathering surrendered troops.
The heavy cavalry that completed the fatal blow to the troll army stopped at the edge of the battlefield.
Of the three thousand heavy cavalry, there are now only more than a thousand left.
More than half of them suffered tragic casualties!
In order to penetrate the troll army formation, they also paid a terrible price!
The remaining more than a thousand riders were all covered in blood. At a glance, they looked like a group of bright red steel sculptures.
Colin took off his helmet and let out a long breath.
This battle is great!
It seems like a difficult and dangerous task, but it seems very easy to complete.
Of course he understood that this was actually an illusion.
Just look at the casualty rate of this heavy cavalry and you will know that this battle will not be easy.
But that feeling of being invincible on the battlefield is as addictive as a poppy, and you can't stop.
The only thing that made him feel a little delayed in this process was perhaps that when he passed by the troll army, the Prince of Gambic charged head-on and killed him.
Colin didn't know what level of warrior Prince Gambic was, but he dared to charge at the heavy cavalry who was at the peak of his momentum. Haha, what would happen...
Not even a whole body was saved.
"We won!" Colin looked at Marquis Garcia, who was also covered in blood next to him, and shouted excitedly.
Marquis Garcia was not as excited as Colin, as if such a great victory was just as normal to him as eating and drinking:
"Do you know why we won?"
"Of course it's thanks to your unparalleled strategy and wise decision-making!" Colin flattered him.
Of course, his flattery comes from the bottom of his heart.
Marquis Garcia is definitely worthy of such praise.
But the Marquis shook his head and said solemnly: "No, I rely on them!"
His eyes slowly swept across the battlefield, looking with pride at the Black Cavalry soldiers who were still galloping on the battlefield, hunting down the remaining troll soldiers.
Colin also put away the smile on his face, seeming to understand what Marquis Garcia meant.
Marquis Garcia retracted his gaze and looked at Colin again: "Strategy is not unimportant, but if a general relies too much on tactics and always thinks of relying on conspiracy and trickery, he will eventually fall into trouble."
Seeing that Colin still seemed a little confused and dissatisfied, Marquis Garcia smiled: "The fox's resourcefulness will only look ridiculous in the eyes of a lion.
I don't want to deny the importance of strategy, I just want to tell you that the most critical secret to victory on the battlefield is a strong army!
That's why I said that in this battle, I rely on them - the Black Cavalry.
Looking at the first half of my life, the secret to being undefeated for more than 20 years is the same - Black Cavalry! "
Colin fell into thought.
Only then did he understand what Marquis Garcia really meant.
The other party was actually reminding him not to rely too much on tactics.
The implementation of strategies also needs to be based on strength.
But before, he did pay too much attention to these strategies, or even conspiracies.
Knight Bliss must have told Marquis Garcia what happened on the way to escape.
Even if Knight Bliss didn't see clearly, Colin wouldn't think that Marquis Garcia couldn't see through his little plots.
It must be said that Colin was indeed a little complacent after the battle in the river bend.
Think that you have mastered the secret of winning on the battlefield.
Moreover, coming from that era of information explosion, he always felt that he was well-informed.
I always know a little bit about Sun Tzu's Art of War, Thirty-Six Stratagems, etc. With these and some of my own cleverness, it must not be difficult to navigate the battlefield.
But fortunately, Marquis Garcia woke Colin up in time.
Intrigue and intrigue are never the right path.
The most mainstream victory on the battlefield is, after all, the victory of the strong against the weak by an upright division.
Although the trolls were actually the stronger side this time, under the careful planning of Marquis Garcia, they continued to create a stronger situation for the Black Cavalry on local battlefields, thus constantly defeating the weak with the strong, and finally defeated the seemingly powerful enemy.
Moreover, think carefully about the strategies used by Marquis Garcia before.
In fact, it is not complicated.
First, he pretended to be at odds with the Duke, confusing and paralyzing the trolls, and then suddenly led his army north to find the location of the main force of the troll wolf cavalry, and successfully raided it. Then, he continued to harass the exhausted troll army that had lost the protection of the cavalry, and finally used heavy cavalry to find it. Flawed, defeated in one blow.
The whole scheme is indeed not complicated, or even brilliant.
It is estimated that even the qualifications to record the military entry certificate are somewhat lacking.
However, Colin, who has experienced all this personally, knows it very well.
This step may seem simple, but it points directly to the key point of the troll army, and presses forward step by step, without giving the enemy a chance to breathe.
From the beginning to the end, no matter how hard the troll struggled, he could not escape the fate of defeat.
Of course, what's more important is the extremely elite first cavalry in the North in the hands of Marquis Garcia - the Black Cavalry!
In this way, Marquis Garcia is not only extremely talented in commanding, but even more powerful, I am afraid he is also talented in training soldiers.
It is precisely because he personally trained this black cavalry army that he has the most fundamental foundation for this series of victories.
With this thought, the thought that Colin had been swirling in his mind could no longer be suppressed——
Marquis Garcia's invincibility relies on his black cavalry. So, where is my black cavalry?
…
The wind and snow are still howling, as if countless grievances and grieving spirits are crying in the world.
On the ice sheet, a large number of troll soldiers were gathered together.
Surrounding them were patrolling black cavalry troops, who were watching eagerly.
The few trolls who surrendered couldn't stand it anymore and couldn't help shouting to the patrolling Black Cavalry soldiers:
"Oh! Brother! We are really hungry. Can you give us something to eat?"
His shout immediately aroused the echo of his surrounding companions, so the scene suddenly became a little noisy:
"Yeah, I'm so cold. Give me something hot!"
"And my legs! The blood is almost drained. Can you help me heal it?"
…
However, the surrounding Black Cavalry soldiers turned a deaf ear to these trolls' requests to surrender.
Only when some surrendered soldiers tried to go out, they would be warned and scolded by the black cavalry, and even arrows and swords would be fired.
In desperation, the trolls had no choice but to wait patiently.
I don't know how long I have been waiting for this.
Many of the trolls who couldn't stand it had lost their breath. However, those who were still a little angry did not get the results they expected.
Marquis Garcia's military order finally came down——
"Kill all the trolls who surrender!"
