"boom"

The two armies collided violently.

The sounds of fighting and screams were mixed together, and the blood spurted out and sprinkled on the white ground, as if they were jointly completing a splash-ink painting mainly in red.

As soon as the two sides fought, the peasants and soldiers of the Hunter family suppressed each other fiercely. They were fierce and aggressive. They wanted to gain military exploits, and they were like a group of hungry red-eyed wild dogs on the battlefield. No one dares to bite the bone.

Faced with this group of Hunter family soldiers who had no shrinkage and fear of fighting, some of the Will family farmers quickly flinched.

The quasi-knights of the Will family who supervised the battle killed several people one after another to stabilize their position.

The Will family will not just watch the peasants and soldiers collapse.

The quasi-knights of the Will family led the bodyguards to tear open the line of the Hunter family. The quasi-knights leading the way even cut the Hunter family peasants and soldiers who were blocking them with their spears into two with the giant sword in their hands. Suddenly, the momentum of Hunter's peasants and soldiers was stagnant.

The prospective knights of Will's family may not be excellent commanders, but they are definitely qualified grassroots officers. They were brave and good at fighting and charged forward, abruptly stopping the decline of Will's family.

Under the leadership of this group of quasi-knights, the soldiers of Will's family finally regained some courage and did not flee. The whole fight has entered a white-hot state, and there has been a situation of evenly matched forces.

"kill"

After beheading another farmer and soldier from the Hunter family, the quasi-knight of the Will family who charged forward felt very uncomfortable. The current situation was different from the past, which made him very uncomfortable and even a little uneasy.

According to his thinking, when these quasi-knights enter the battle with their personal guards, these peasants and soldiers will soon lose their courage and retreat. If the opponent does not have quite a quasi-knight to come out to stop them, the next battle will become a battle. A simple chase.

But this time, the surrounding peasants and soldiers did not retreat as he had imagined, leaving their backs to him. Instead, they stood firm and seemed to be encircling and attacking him. The will to fight was much stronger than he had imagined.

All of this is also due to Li Cha's management style. In Li Cha's view, maintaining the combat effectiveness of an army is nothing more than three words, "to lure them with profit, to understand them with reason, and to punish them with punishment."

The so-called lure for profit is the exchange of military merits for land and opportunities for advancement, thereby stimulating soldiers' enthusiasm for war and fighting bravely to be the first.

Li Cha emulated the method of the Hunan Army here, trying to organize the father, son and brothers of the villagers into the same team so that they have bonds with each other, and will not easily abandon their comrades. Supplemented by loyalty education and ideological propaganda of defending the hometown, the will to fight will be stabilized, and even if it is against the wind, it will not escape easily.

In the end, Qi Zhi will be punished. The deserters will not only be executed on the spot, but will also implicate their families afterwards. What's more, Li Cha also stipulates that if there are more than a certain number of deserters in a certain village, the whole village will be killed in the next year. be punitively taxed.

In this way, even if these peasants and soldiers have been extinguished by the cruel war and their enthusiasm has been disintegrated, they will still try their best to support them because they are afraid of the harsh military law.

So even though there was an explosive scene where the quasi-knights of the Will family directly cut the person into two pieces, it failed to scare off the peasants and soldiers of the Hunter family. Coupled with the fact that the city guards with stronger fighting power stepped up in time, the whole battle fell into a trap. There was a stalemate.

Looking at the situation in front of him, Li Cha couldn't help frowning, obviously dissatisfied with the stalemate of the battle in front of him.

I still underestimated the Will family, Richard thought.

In Li Cha's view, apart from poorer equipment and training, the peasants and soldiers he built by himself are not weaker than regular professional soldiers in terms of fighting will and discipline. .

But the prospective knights of Will's family taught Richard a lesson with their bravery. These professional warriors, who are four or five times stronger than ordinary people, wear thick iron armor and hold heavy weapons. Any one of them will be famous for a while on the ancient battlefield in the previous life, and it can definitely be called a battlefield meat grinder. More than a dozen of them appeared on the battlefield at the same time like this. If the peasants and soldiers of the Hunter family were not directly defeated, it could be considered that Li Cha managed the army well.

It's no wonder that the lords of this world don't seem to care much about ordinary soldiers. To a certain extent, personal bravery is indeed more important than the ancient battlefields of the previous life, not to mention that there are even more terrifying knights above these quasi-knights.

If more quasi-knights can be deployed in the team, Li Cha naturally doesn't want a group of ordinary soldiers to resist the quasi-knights on the opposite side. Unfortunately, the background of Will's family is indeed stronger than that of Hunter's. Ordinary elite soldiers can be trained for a few years, but The quasi-knights couldn’t be mass-produced in a short period of time. Including the three system swordsmen, besides two uncles and two cousins, Li Cha also had two quasi-knights trained in recent years, and there were no more than ten in total. .

The Will family has more than 20 quasi-knights surnamed Will alone, plus generations of retainers and personal guards, the Will family has nearly 30 quasi-knights, even if Viscount Will sent nearly ten The quasi-knights rushed forward with their personal guards, and there were still 20 quasi-knights staying with Viscount Will waiting for an opportunity. It was no wonder that the Will family had enough confidence to launch a war.

The spearmen of the system continued to protect the archers and released cold arrows. The archers of the system were as accurate as they were open, and it was not obvious when they fired in the opening volley. When it came to melee, they could still accurately attack the enemy. It's the quasi-knights who make trouble that show their skill.

Apart from Li Cha's dissatisfaction with the current battlefield situation, Viscount Will was even more dissatisfied.

From Viscount Will's point of view, he already had a numerical advantage on his side, and once the quasi-knights pressed into battle, not to mention crushing them, they should also have the advantage, instead of forming a balance of power like this.

"Control, control."

The cavalry on both sides failed to find a chance to break in after cruising and testing, and finally returned to their own formation tacitly.

There is a shortage of horses in the Northland, or in other words, all the horses in the Northland are concentrated in the hands of the Marquis of the Northland. The Will family can finally have hundreds of horses by relying on generations of management, and Richard bought some horses at a high price. Pull up nearly a hundred cavalry.

The cavalry from both sides gathered around their respective commanders, staring silently at each other hundreds of steps away, and suddenly raised their war blades and burst into loud shouts.

Regardless of the calculations in the early stage, the key to the victory or defeat of this battle finally rests on the Cavaliers.
