Chapter 489 All in vain

Those who have never experienced the galloping of horses holding a knife will never know what it feels like.

There are sharp blades on both sides and fierce war horses. The sound of rumbling horse hooves is filled with the sound of rumbling horses. You can't tolerate any other sounds. You don't have time to search for any enemy. You only know that with a knife, you swept past the enemy in your vision, and then there is the blood light soaring into the sky.

It doesn't take much effort at all. The kinetic energy and huge inertia of a horse running at high speed are enough to allow your saber to split any hard objects.

If the enemy is right in front and your knife cannot reach it, it is even simpler. If you hit it, the horse's strong forelimbs and the thousands of kilograms of kinetic energy it carries can knock anyone into a comminuted fracture.

Liu Lang felt this way now. Even if he was the best in the army, he was confident that if he was under the horse, no one would be the 1,600 cavalry here.

However, when the cavalry rushed up, Liu Lang discovered that this place was not a battlefield for showing personal force.

The cavalry leans on the whole, with everyone shouldering shoulders, and horses next to horses, like a wall, a wall composed of horse hooves and blades, destroying all resistances along the road.

If he was facing this group of cavalry, Liu Lang's first idea was to escape, and escape anywhere that could escape from the attack range of these terrifying cavalrymen.

Even if you give him a machine gun, Liu Lang had no confidence in surviving this terrible battlefield. Even if you kill one, ten, or even dozens, it would be like a row of cavalry coming to his face.

What kind of despair should be like in his heart when facing such an attack? It is hard for Liu Lang to imagine what kind of magnificence it was when tens of thousands or even tens of thousands of cavalry charged in ancient times.

As the attacker, Liu Lang had this idea, let alone the Black Hawk Army of the 8th Division that was attacked.

No one knew what was thinking in the mind of Major General Xu Haiming, who was in the command of the main position division when the first row of cavalry rushed over with thunderous horses.

After a while, Xu Haiming pushed away the guards who rushed up to take him away and issued the last order in his life, perhaps, two orders: "Order all the officers and soldiers of the division to break through on their own, and order the flag guards to burn the division's flag."

Then, Xu Haiming drew out his command knife, held the knife in both hands, pointed forward at the Kingdom Cavalry that was rushing towards him at high speed at a distance of only 300 meters away from him.

Liu Lang's evaluation of Xu Haiming was still not accurate enough. The Chief of Staff of the Eighth Division, who had been suppressed by Liu Lang, seemed a little cautious and restrained, showed at the last moment of his life, whether it was the stupidity of blocking a car by the mantis arm or the despair of seeking death, but he did not escape in a panic. Instead, he showed the responsibility of a general of the army.

Since he ordered the entire army to break through on its own, he naturally admitted that the 8th Division had been defeated. Breaking through on its own is completely different from retreating. The latter is an organized retreat. Although retreating is not a defeat, the former is almost synonymous with defeat, and it is calculated as much as it can run.

From the appearance of cavalry to the issuance of orders to the self-breaking order, it took only ten seconds. Xu Haiming, who was cautious by nature, might have been decisive for the first time in his life.

Yes, since he heard the sound of horse hooves like thunder and then saw a black line jumping out of the horizon, Xu Haiming, who was as stupid as a chicken, knew that he had been fooled.

The kingdoms blocked head-on to attract the few main forces left in his 8th Division. The attack on the flank was just a flick of a shot to convince him that their target was the weak flanks of the position, but they actually placed the focus of the attack behind the position in an unusual manner.

Moreover, it was not infantry, but cavalry, the terrible cavalry rushed forward.

If it were in the past, let alone these two thousand cavalry, even if there were 20,000, the Eighth Division would have let them die in front of the position without any advancement.

But now, he does not have a firepower net composed of hundreds of machine guns, nor does he set up barbed wire in front of the position. The baggage has long been exhausted in several fierce battles with the ancient city regiment.

The Eighth Division now has only rifles and machine guns, as well as a few bullets, and these are still fighting thousands of kingdoms ahead.

Nearly four thousand people in the front could no longer turn back. It only took one minute for the cavalry to rush through a distance of one thousand meters, but it took three minutes for them to return to the trench six hundred meters away.

The infantry, who were attacked from both sides and without trenches, were only slaughtered when facing the blade raised by the cavalry.

Therefore, Xu Haiming issued an unprecedented decisive order to break through the entire division.

Then, he raised his command knife towards the rushing cavalry.

Perhaps, he wanted to maintain the dignity of the Major General of the Black Hawk Empire, or perhaps, he wanted to buy a little time for his soldiers to retreat.

But no matter what, a person who dares to raise his last weapon against the blades of thousands of cavalrymen is worthy of respect, even if he is the enemy.

However, for the running cavalrymen, they could not see the shining generals on Xu Haiming's shoulders in their eyes, nor could they see the shiny blade raised by Xu Haiming. They only had enemies in their yellow uniforms. Whether you resist or not, they would all swing them with one knife.

Xu Haiming's command knife was very sharp, and it shone with a cold light in the dim light of dawn. However, in front of the sabre carrying thousands of kilograms of kinetic energy, a sharp knife was actually not as effective as a mace. With a loud "clang" sound, the first time he met, Xu Haiming's major-general command knife was cut off by a cavalry running over him at high speed. The cavalry did not stop and continued to rush forward at high speed.

Immediately afterwards, the sabre of another cavalry swung, the brave Major General of the Black Hawk Army was in the middle of his forehead, a blood line gradually extended downward, and the fierce light and despair in his eyes gradually dimmed until he was in a state of despair.

While blood gushed, the Black Hawk Major General's body fell down on his back.

Xu Haiming died.

A major general of the Blackhawk Imperial Army who was supposed to be promoted to general of the Blackhawk Imperial Army several years later died under the blade of an ordinary kingdom cavalry several decades in advance.

Until after the war, I didn't know who killed the Black Hawk Army commander. Because everyone was waving the knife in their hands like a mechanical one, slashing at every enemy in every field of vision, and anyone wearing yellow military uniforms was an enemy.

Who would remember whether the epaulette on his shoulder was a major general or a private? No one had that time.

The two teams of cavalry did not stop at the main position at all. They increased their horse speed to the extreme again and rushed towards the Black Hawk Army, which was already in chaos on the front position.

The Black Hawk Army on the front battlefield may only know the tragedy of the Black Hawk Army.

They rushed too far.

It is only one hundred meters away from the kingdom's position, and the closest one is even fifty meters. However, under the desperate resistance of the kingdom's people, these fifty meters are like a natural barrier, and they can only watch but cannot enter.

If you can't enter, you can't retreat at most.

But when the cavalry rushed over from behind and retreated, it was impossible.

Turn around and fight against the Kingdom Cavalry?

The bullets of the kingdom behind them are vegetarians? Without the suppression of grenade launchers, the result of leaving the backs to dozens of machine guns and two thousand gun bullets will definitely not be much better than the horse hooves of the cavalry, or even worse.

Therefore, some people want to enter, and as long as they enter the trenches, they can avoid the terrible horse hooves and blades of the cavalry, while others want to retreat, as long as they set up a machine gun to strafuse the cavalry, there is a glimmer of hope.

However, the alarm on the main position came from the information about the entire army breaking through, which completely caused the already confused Black Hawk Army to fall into complete chaos.

The cavalry did not leave more time for the Black Hawk Army facing choice. In just one minute, the cavalry who rode their horses over the trenches of the Black Hawk Army's main position rushed to the front battlefield.

All that greeted them was the Black Hawk Army's desperate eyes and the bayonet that had never been so weak in their hands.
