Ark: The Cycle of Light and Darkness

As soon as the first horse broke through the line of the tripping rope, the brutal close combat began.

Despite losing the advantage of impact speed due to three consecutive waves of calculations from Levi, the Blood Eagle's cavalry still dealt a huge blow to the remnants of the Third Army.

The first wave of heavily armored soldiers almost collapsed at the first touch. Even with two people supporting each other, the heavy shield could not withstand the momentum of the tall horse, not to mention the scimitar of the knight on the horse.

After hundreds of people were killed, the front line was barely stabilized - but the morale that had finally risen due to Levi's several small tricks was also lost because of this retreat.

"Hold on big shield! The crossbowmen fired a volley!"

Levi's shouts were accompanied by arrows flying from several directions. The arrows hitting the knight's armor made a clanging sound, but they were unable to penetrate the thick cavalry armor. A few arrows shot into the gaps in the armor. , it only caused the target to sway slightly on the horse, and then it was as safe as ever.

"Hahaha, are you done with all the little tricks?"

Xue Ying looked at the young man not far away and chuckled.

Although he didn't know if he was Regulus Harvey, he admired the commanding look.

"Surrender - although you did block my first wave of attack, with the thousands of men in your hands, it is impossible to resist my thousand cavalry."

"……I never thought of blocking your cavalry."

Levi looked at the eager cavalry in front of him, but his eyes were surprisingly calm:"My purpose has been clear from the beginning - to keep you all here."

?

"stay? Just you? And those losers behind you?"

Ignoring the glare of the soldiers of the Third Legion behind Levi, Blood Eagle seemed to have thought of something funny and laughed wildly:"Okay, okay, you are indeed Regulus Harvey. I want to see it. When you are When I was captured alive, would I still have the room to talk nonsense like this?"

Levi raised his eyelids and looked not far away, at the last cavalryman who crossed the pit and the soldiers slowly evacuating around the camp gate.

"You'll understand soon enough."

The Sakaz man narrowed his eyes and said this. As if to confirm his statement, and as if this sentence was simply a signal, the door of the Central Military Camp, which was originally wide open, was empty at some point. , only a few large bundles of straw were lying on the spot.

Immediately, three or five rockets lit with Originium skills flew away, completely igniting the camp gate, and a raging fire broke out.

"this?...This is your clever plan’？"

Blood Eagle's eyes widened, and at this moment he felt really angry at being slighted:"Do you really think that with this fire, you can make my cavalry put down their weapons and capture them without mercy?"

"of course not."

Levi's words were long and lingering, as if a pair of hands had parted the fog, finally revealing the blood-eating fangs behind the fog:"What you have to deal with is...them!"

Boom——!!

The sound of the earth shaking made everyone present have panic expressions on their faces, but the next second, the faces of the soldiers of the Third Legion showed expressions of ecstasy, and Blood Eagle and His knights were full of disbelief.

Cavalry.

This was not one or two, but a cavalry team composed of hundreds of cavalry.

And just as the cavalry rushed nearby, the soldiers of the Third Legion also began to follow the shield. The formation established a circular defense line and began to actively advance and strangle the troops in front of them.

After all, they were professional soldiers with formal training.

Blood Eagle stared blankly at everything that happened in front of him.

He never imagined that things would turn out like this.

On both sides of the camp The wasteland was empty and there could not be any ambush, which was why Blood Eagle dared to use all his means to attack.

However... the opponent actually had such an unsuspecting cavalry!

——As long as you time it well, the distance of a thousand meters is just ten minutes of rapid march... You can even use this strong momentum to scatter your own cavalry in an instant!

The various methods that Blood Eagle had thought of before to use cavalry to deal with the Third Legion all came true on his own head.

"Why!!"

The two cavalrymen who had been planning for a long time rushed into his cavalry team like wolves into the flock of sheep. Blood Eagle knew that he had been defeated, but he was not willing to be defeated.

"More than half of the cavalry of the Third Army had already been lost under the walls of West Falun, and they were fleeing to death under our constant pursuit... Where did you get the cavalry from?!"

"Huh? Do you think so? Levi shook his head indifferently:"Do you really think--they escaped?""

Xue Ying was slightly confused for half a second, and then his eyes widened as if he had figured something out.

"——Baggage and cavalry were the biggest problems during the evacuation."

Levi closed his eyes, as if he couldn't see Blood Eagle's expression, and said:"The baggage affects the marching speed, and the cavalry is because the marching speed is inconsistent. If it is separated from the large army, it will not be able to keep up, but if it is followed by the large army, it will not be able to perform. Cavalry's speed advantage."

The Blood Eagle completely understood this time.

Because it needed to retreat, the Third Army dropped a large amount of supplies as bait to prevent West Falun's army from rushing in. It lured the light cavalry to pursue.

Because it needed to be arranged in advance, the Third Army The legion did not march according to the normal route, but hid here and there, focusing all their attention on their marching route and ignoring the"stragglers" one after another. Those so-called escaping cavalry must have led them With only a few days' worth of dry food, they kept a certain distance from the main force in the wilderness and moved forward.

Once the main force changed, they could rush over quickly and use this unexpected force to wipe out the few pursuing troops.!

The fire at the entrance of the camp became less intense and had completely cut off the Blood Eagle's retreat.

"……After you are eliminated, we can bury the traces and move forward lightly. It will be too late for the large army to find out about your death and pursue you again."

Levi raised his head and looked at the heavy snow that had fallen down at some point:"We should be grateful for this snow... They will cover the traces of the war for a long time, and you... just have to look forward to it. It will rain for too long."
