Chapter 198: 198 Faint Move_1



Actually, the Troll army led by Prince Okamoto was not entirely devoid of elite troops.

If an army composed wholly of rookies were to march towards the North Territory after crossing thousands of miles of Ice Plain, if half the troops of this army of a hundred thousand survived, it would be a testament to Prince Okamoto’s leadership skills.

For the crucial task of cutting off the Dark Cavalry’s rear, Prince Okamoto had at his disposal a fairly competent army of thirty thousand, amongst which the most formidable were the three thousand Wolf Cavalry.

This was also the last Wolf Cavalry unit of the Troll Empire, if not for the less practical use of cavalry in city defense, the Troll Emperor might not have let this last precious asset be commanded by Prince Okamoto.

Facing the incoming onslaught of the Dark Cavalry, Prince Okamoto somewhat desperately dispatched the three thousand Wolf Cavalry to battle, coordinating with infantry to counter the invading Dark Cavalry.

If the Troll Army was sufficiently elite, this would not be considered a ludicrous military order.

But Prince Okamoto was completely unaware of the chasm of difference between his Wolf Cavalry and the truly dominant Dark Cavalry that swept across the Sky Ice Plain.

The three thousand Wolf Cavalry were originally stationed on the right wing of the central army to ward off enemies. Their sudden deployment from the flank did not create much disorder.

But when Colin saw the Wolf Cavalry advancing from afar, his eyes lit up instantly.

He had already known from Charles that the leader of this Troll Army was the familiar Prince Okamoto. But he hadn’t expected this young Prince of Trolls to be so impatient.

Without waiting for Colin’s order, Knight Logh, who had a thorough understanding of how to deal with Wolf Cavalry, immediately led his army to retreat from the flank of the Troll Army.

The leaders of the Dark Cavalry had already practiced countless times alongside Marquis Garcia on how to disrupt the cooperative operations of the Troll’s infantry and cavalry.

The method was simple.

If you had sufficient troops, defeating the enemy’s cavalry head-on would be the best choice.

Otherwise, it would be best to temporarily avoid the thrust, lure the enemy’s cavalry far away from the infantry, and then decide on the best tactic according to the situation.

So, the moment Knight Logh saw the figures of the Wolf Cavalry, he immediately led his troops in swift retreat.

Short notes of the military horn followed, signaling a temporary retreat.

At the moment, the flank of the Troll Army was covered in dust. The Wolf Cavalry, like a strong arm, protruded from the Troll Army, swiftly chasing up the tail of the Dark Cavalry.

A collision occurred in an instant, and a dull blast exploded on the battlefield.

The rear of the Dark Cavalry was still caught by the Wolf Cavalry.

Amid the neighing of war horses, the soldiers of the Dark Cavalry raised their weapons and swung them at the oncoming Troll Cavalry.

Immediately, countless figures were crying out as they were knocked off their horses.

At this moment, the Troll Wolf Cavalry also suffered a powerful wave of arrow rain attack. The Wolf Cavalry, brandishing their long swords and charging forward, had no time to raise their shields for protection and fell from their horses.

This sudden and intense collision ended quickly, leaving only clumps of flesh and blood that were soon obscured by the advancing Troll infantry.

This Wolf Cavalry was indeed elite, and their charge almost completely shattered the tail of the Dark Cavalry, inflicting the greatest casualty since the beginning of the battle on the Dark Cavalry.

Such war achievements excited the Trolls who had been holding their breath, and the flowing blood and flying limbs further incited their ferocity.

Hence, they howled like ghosts and wolves, chasing after the Dark Cavalry.

Now observing the fight from the rear was Prince Okamoto who, upon seeing the outcome, vigorously waved his fist, as if venting the repression of the last few days.

Unfortunately, this young prince, who had a limited understanding of the battlefield situation, kept ordering his troops to keep fighting without any precautions and unknowingly led the army into the abyss of destruction.

Seeing the Wolf Cavalry continue to chase after his forces, and the distance between them and the infantry behind them continually increasing, Colin was overjoyed.

Originally, he had planned to slowly exhaust the Troll Army by continuously harassing them during their march, but now, he discovered a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

In fact, the real difference between a gifted commander and a mediocre one lies here. Confronted with the chaotic and changing battlefield situation, the mediocre would be at a loss, even causing blunders, while a truly great commander could grasp the fleeting opportunities and make the most correct decisions.

This seeming simple step, however, required great courage, boldness, and an incredibly keen sense of the battlefield.

Colin did not fail to live up to the assessments of Knight Blis and Marquis Garcia – “This is a man born for the battlefield”.

Woo

The long tone of the military horn sounded as Colin issued the attack command.

Units of the Dark Cavalry again changed directions, and the arrows in the sky became denser at once.

Amid the shouts of men and neighing of horses, and accompanied by the rolling sounds of horse hooves, the situation on the battlefield changed instantly once more.

The Troll Wolf Cavalry fruitlessly chased after the enemy, only to realize that the Dark Cavalry had also appeared on both their flanks.

The Dark Cavalry in front suddenly parted like a tide, and just as the Wolf Cavalry leader was struggling with which direction to chase, the dark tide in front disappeared, only to be replaced by a new, towering wave

A squad of Heavy Armoured Cavalry was charging straight towards them!

The Wolf Cavalry leader was instantly terrified, realizing that he had chased too deep.

But at this point, even if he wanted to tell his Wolf Cavalry to stop, it would be impossible.

The Wolf Cavalry, in the midst of a charge, would find it difficult to change direction, let alone stop or turn around.

Under the force of inertia, the three thousand Wolf Cavalry inadvertently collided head-on with the Dark Cavalry’s Heavy Armoured Cavalry.

Boom boom boom!

In an instant, countless Wolf Cavalry were knocked to the ground, only to be trampled into pieces.

The exhausted Wolf Cavalry, wearing light armor, had unexpectedly collided head-on with the well-prepared Dark Cavalry’s Heavy Armoured Cavalry. The scene was so dreadful that it was difficult to bear watching.

The Dark Cavalry’s Light Cavalry, roaming nearby, took this opportunity to surround them like a pack of wolves.

Life at this moment was as fragile as brittle dry grass. In the blink of an eye, they disappeared silently amidst the bloody splatter.

The Dark Cavalry taught the Trolls a bloody lesson with flexible tactics and strong combat power, asserting who truly commanded the Ice Plain!

The three thousand Wolf Cavalry crumbled almost immediately upon contact.

The Wolf Cavalry in the back desperately tried to turn around, hoping to rush back towards their infantry for support.

But this sudden change of direction without preparation was an extremely difficult task for the sprinting wolves of the Ice Plain.

Subsequent to the confusion, the Wolf Cavalry’s formation disintegrated, becoming utterly disorganized.

Witnessing all this, Prince Okamoto experienced a plunge from heaven to hell in an instant. Annoyed and fearful, he completely lost his composure and insanely ordered the infantry to rush forward to support the scattered Wolf Cavalry.

And this command completely extinguished the last hope of the Troll Army.
