Chapter 909: Blitzkrieg (IV)

——Forget it, let’s not think about it so much for now.

Nikita took a few deep breaths, and after eliminating the unnecessary distractions in his mind, he said sternly to the scout:

"Okay, thank you for your hard work. You can go down and rest first."

"yes!"

Although Deng Jiaer really took the exact same action as El suspected, which shocked Nikita very much, Nikita did not lose his control because of this.

Because Nikita understands - he still has time.

Even if Deng Jiaer gathered all the elite cavalry in the army and equipped each cavalry with three horses, the distance of more than 60 miles would still be enough for them to run for a while.

According to the intelligence reported by the scouts just now, Deng Jiaer's cavalry set off at 12:00 in the afternoon.

Nikita opened his pocket watch.

It's mid-afternoon now.

Nikita made some calculations and thought that no matter how fast Deng Jiaer's cavalry team was, it would be almost dusk after running more than 60 miles.

In other words, Nikita still has more than an hour to prepare for the battle.

More than an hour - this time is enough.

As long as he is prepared to meet the enemy, no matter how many cavalry Deng Jiaer sends, Nikita will be sure to deal with it.

Just when Nikita was about to summon all the generals in the army to quickly prepare for the battle, he suddenly heard some strange sounds.

One muffled sound after another.

The muffled noise is getting louder and louder.

Soon, the muffled sound turned into a terrifying loud noise like thunder.

Nikita is a veteran who has been on the battlefield for decades, and he is all too familiar with this sound.

"No..."

Nikita's eyes widened in shock.

In order to verify his conjecture, Nikita rushed out of the tent as fast as he could.

Run towards the watchtower located within the formation.

As soon as he climbed onto the watchtower, Nikita couldn't wait to follow the sound to find the source of the bursts of thunder.

Nikita cast his gaze towards the source of the bursts of thunder, and then saw a scene that should not have appeared at this time.

In the northwest, where the sky and the earth meet, there is a cloud of dust and smoke accompanying the bursts of thunder. The upper part is dark yellow, blocking out the sky and the sun. The lower part is black and dark purple, neatly like a surging waterline.

This surging black and purple waterline gradually revealed its true appearance.

It's a cavalry team.

They are a cavalry team wearing black armor and dark purple cloaks.

It is the cavalry of the Britannia Army.

They drove their horses to take small steps towards the camp of Hiran's army.

Although he was far away from them, Nikita could still clearly feel the chilling air emanating from them.

"impossible……"

Nikita felt her knees go weak.

Unable to control his body shape, he sat down directly on the watchtower.

"How could it be so fast..."

A painful moan came from Nikita's trembling lips.

The speed of this cavalry team completely exceeded Nikita's expectations.

According to the intelligence from the scouts, Deng Jiaer's cavalry clearly set off in the afternoon.

And now it's only a minute in the afternoon.

In other words - Deng Jiaer's cavalry team only took a little more than 3 hours to complete the more than 60 miles.

Their scouts had just returned to the main camp, and then Deng Jiaer's cavalry team came over...

Their scouts used three fast horses, moved alone, did not carry any extra burden, and ran non-stop before returning here in more than three hours.

And Deng Jiaer's cavalry team clearly had more than 2,000 people moving, and the riders were all wearing heavy armor, but they were still able to rush here at a speed that was not inferior to that of the scouts...

This speed of travel has exceeded Nikita's original knowledge.

This cavalry team, all wearing dark purple cloaks, drove their horses to trot close to the camp of Hiran's army.

After reaching a suitable range, the speed of the war horse slowly increased under the control of the cavalry.

The Britannian Army cavalry has begun to speed up and charge.

While charging, the cavalry also slowly leveled the lances in their hands. Under the sunlight, the cold light of the lance points was reflected directly at the Xilan Army camp.

The chilling aura among the cavalrymen also continued to rise, and every step of the horse's hooves had the potential to destroy mountains and seas.

The horses' hooves raised up dust all over the sky, swept into the air like a whirlwind, and passed through the vast wilderness like a gust of wind. Add to this the terrifying chilling aura they carried, making people feel suffocated.

With such a distance, it was too late to prepare for the battle.

If you want to defeat the cavalry that has launched a charge, there are only two methods available.

One is to form a dense gun array.

As long as the spear formation is not chaotic and there are no gaps, even the mainland's first heavy cavalry unit, the Iron Armored Holy Cavalry, cannot break through the spear formation composed of well-trained spearmen.

Another method is to gather the crossbowmen to throw the rain of arrows.

However, there is simply no time to assemble the spearmen and crossbowmen now.

There is nothing to be done - this word is more suitable to describe the current situation of Xilan's army.

But Nikita didn't sit still.

Even though he knew there was nothing he could do now, Nikita still gritted his teeth, poured strength into his weak legs, tried to stand up, climbed down the watchtower, and did everything he could do now.

…

…

The key to this "blitzkrieg" operation is to be fast.
