Chapter 1268 Battle of Zulukou (IV)

Bazel underestimated the combat power of the Delan Undead Team and mistakenly believed that the power of the Delan Undead Team's Alti tactics was at best the same level as that of the prairie people and could not possibly threaten the charge of the armored holy cavalry.

If Bazel had been more vigilant against the Delan Undead Army, the Frankish army's left battlefield probably wouldn't have led to such an outcome.

But it's obviously too late to say anything now.

Although Bazel has been sent to the battlefield of the Chinese army as quickly as possible, it will take time to deliver the general order.

It also takes time for reinforcements to rush to the left battlefield.

Whether Deng Jiaer can make good use of this time difference is the key to the success of Deng Jiaer's strategy.

The total strength of the Winged Cavalry Regiment and the Delan Undead Corps was 3,600, and they faced a total of 5,000 Ironclad Paladins.

There was not much difference in military strength between the two armies, and they attacked in an orderly manner - the victory or defeat was soon decided.

As the casualties continued to increase, more and more armored holy cavalry began to flee.

Under the command of Deng Jiaer, the Delan Immortal Corps and the Winged Cavalry Regiment pursued and killed them, and at the same time drove the disintegrated armored holy cavalry towards the rear of the Frank army's formation.

After pursuing to a certain distance, the Delan Immortal Corps and the Winged Cavalry Regiment stopped their pursuit.

They began to turn around the Chinese military battlefield where the base station was in full swing.

Rushing towards the Frankish army's right flank battlefield.

When Bazel saw this, he instantly understood what the Delan Undead Team and the Winged Cavalry wanted to do.

Although the messengers under his command were also asked to go as quickly as possible to inform the troops on the right-wing battlefield to prepare for the enemy attack from the rear, but - this also took time.

Before the battle started, Deng Jiaer once told Gary - they must be fast in this battle! They must be able to fight quickly and slowly. As long as each step is faster than the Frank army, they can gradually eat away at the Frank army with superior strength.

…

…

After defeating the Frankish army's left wing, the right wing force led by him - the Deland Undead and the Winged Cavalry Regiment - successfully arrived before Bazel's defense order was delivered to their Frankish army's right wing.

The troops arrived at the rear of the Frankish right wing.

Gary, who was responsible for commanding the central and left-wing troops to resist the Frankish attack and buy time for Deng Jiaer to defeat the enemy's left-wing troops, had been standing on a high watchtower, paying attention to the trends on the battlefield.

An uncontrollable smile began to appear on his face when he noticed a large amount of smoke coming from the rear of the battlefield on the right flank of the Franks.

While he let the smile shine on his face, he sent an order to the left wing troops - to turn from defense to attack and launch an attack on the Frank army's right wing.

…

…

The Holy Armor is indeed one of the two trump cards of the Frank Empire.

Although the infantry of the Britannian Empire's central army fought desperately, their battle lines continued to retreat.

The military formation that was originally convex in the middle and concave on both sides was gradually oppressed into a "counter-crescent" with a concave middle and convex sides.

On the surface, the battlefield situation of the Frankish army's central army is very good. If they continue to work hard, it should not be a problem to defeat the Britannian army's central army.

But at this moment, the Frankish army's central army suddenly received an order to retreat.

Although I don't understand why we have to retreat when the situation is good, this is a military order after all. Since it is a military order, we must abide by it.

However - before the Frankish army's central troops had time to retreat, the Britannian army's central troops suddenly started to move.

At this time, the two convex sides of the Britannian Army's center formation, which was concave in the middle and convex on both sides, suddenly moved forward, pressing toward both sides of the Frankish Army's center. Scholarly

The protruding troops on both sides of the Britannia Army's central military formation are armored warriors with a total strength of 2,400.

In front of the central army of the Frank Empire were 6,000 infantrymen from the 2nd Corps of the Knights of Michael, and 2,400 armored warriors on the left and right sides.

At this time, smoke and dust rose from their rear - the 5,000 armored holy cavalry on the right flank of the Frankish army, which they jointly attacked and successfully defeated, the Delan Undead Corps, the Winged Cavalry Regiment, and the 3,000 cavalry on the left wing came to Frank. The rear of the military formation within the army.

The sudden appearance of enemy troops on the left and right sides of the military formation, especially in the rear, caused panic to spread among the Frankish army's central troops, and this panic also spread at an alarming speed.

The armored holy cavalry on the left and right wings of the Frank army were defeated, leaving only the 20,000 infantry and 3,500 holy armored soldiers in the center.

The last 23,500 soldiers of the Frankish army were surrounded by enemy troops on their front, rear, left and right - this battle had already been won or lost.

This was Deng Jiaer's tactics - attack quickly and slowly, gradually eating away at the various units of the Frank army, and extending a partial victory to a comprehensive victory.

Looking at the Chinese army that was surrounded from all sides, Bazel felt in a trance.

The Britannian Army's attack was so fast that Bazel still hadn't reacted.

…

…

"Integrate the defeated armored holy cavalry!"

Even though he knew the outcome was decided, Bazel still had the courage to fight and prepared to integrate the armored holy cavalry who had fled from the left and right wings.

The armored holy cavalry on the left and right wings suffered numerous casualties under the rapid attack of the Britannia army, but they still managed to escape and many of the defeated troops managed to escape.

If these defeated soldiers were integrated, they could form an assault force with some combat power left.

Bazel was prepared to rely on the remaining assault force to rescue the central army that was surrounded on all sides.

Bazel placed the assault direction on the left and right sides of the central army.

The Britannian army that surrounded the Frankish central army was a group of armored warriors with a strength of only 2,400 people, and the difficulty of breaking through was relatively low.

With the idea of ​​evacuating as many people as possible, Bazel ordered an assault.

Let the remaining assault force under his command charge the Britannian army that was besieging their Frankish central army, and try to open a gap so that as many soldiers as possible from the besieged central army could escape...

...

...

The battle of Zrukou was decided at a very fast speed.

Under Deng Jiaer's quick attack, it took only half an afternoon for the Frankish army to collapse across the board.

The 35,000-man army that Bazel brought was almost completely wiped out.

The two trump cards of the Frankish Empire, the Ironclad Cavalry and the Holy Armored Soldiers, only had about 2,000 and 300 men left respectively.

The other 20,000 infantrymen were only about 500 men left.

The rest of the soldiers were either killed or captured by Deng Jiaer's army, or fled to an unknown place.

Bazel led 33,500 troops to Zlukou, and finally fled back to the Rhineland Plain with less than 3,000 remnants of the army.

If you insist on saying why Bazel was defeated so miserably in this battle, it should be that he underestimated the Delan Undead Corps.

Underestimating the Delan Undead Corps caused him to make a wrong step.

The chain reaction caused by this wrong step made him fall behind Deng Jiaer step by step, and finally-incurred a great defeat.
