Lord of the Oasis

At the juncture when the group of noble coalition troops had already marched due to the fatigue of the day and became slack in the rest, they were still attracted by the juncture of attention. The charge of these 1,000 elite desert robbers was extremely abrupt!

Raids and sneak attacks are actually equal to attacks, that is, attacks that take advantage of people's unpreparedness, so they are called raids.

Still a night attack.

So when Rolfe led the charge, the mercenaries in the tents were still asleep.

Even if he was vigilant, most of the friendly troops on patrol had dissipated because he knew that there were patrols outside. When the sudden charge began, he was still a little sluggish for a few seconds, and he didn't understand what happened until the ground under him shook.

There are massive cavalry charging!

But.

What if you wake up?

A distance of 300 meters, for heavy cavalry, is a distance that can enter a full charge state.

For the light cavalry, it has already entered a state of charge, and began to run wildly, turning the machetes and spears in their hands into the most terrifying killing machines with this speed and inertia!

And this distance of 300 meters, in the eyes of the cavalry, is only a few seconds!

"kill!"

Rolf raised his machete high, his face full of hideous colors.

The warhorse under his crotch galloped wildly, took the lead, and flew directly over a distance of 3 meters to the piles of tents. The scimitar in his hand did not need to be chopped, but was placed parallel to his side. The mercenary, as the blade touched the body, instantly split a scar that could be seen deep in the bone due to the inertia.

But before all the mercenaries reacted in this raid, the cavalry charge like a flood followed Rolf and poured into the pile of tents, wantonly slashing and stabbing with machetes and spears. prick.

The horses neighed and whined together, and the stench of blood and excrement and urine filled the air.

The killing continues!

In the outermost tent, the mercenaries didn't even get up.

Because the desert horses in the charging state have used their hooves to trample these unlucky ghosts who are still lying on the ground at the outermost periphery, trampling the horseshoes in the charging state is no less than smashing with a heavy hammer!

Moreover, hundreds of horseshoes were smashed down, and it was still the heaviest charging state.

Even the iron is crushed.

What about people?

A pile of bolognese oozes out of the tent, only to be trampled by more horses' hooves.

The elite desert robbers roared back and forth in the tent and charged back and forth, so that the unorganized mercenaries tasted the bitter fruit they had to bear after the raid, which was to be slaughtered like lambs!

These mercenaries are all unfamiliar with each other, and some even draw swords at friendly forces in order to escape.

Cannibalism is already normal.

or even.

Attack the camp in the village!

There is the most central and core part of this pile of mercenaries.

However, they are all protected by the private armies of the nobles, and these lowly mercenaries are not allowed to approach at all!

Regular infantrymen wearing chain mail and holding spears formed a spear formation on the streets of the village. The sharp spears didn't care whether they were friendly troops or not. As long as anyone dared to approach, they would stab them mercilessly.

The nobles behind them looked grim. For their own safety, it was impossible for them to let these mercenaries in.

Because those mercenaries were already in a commotion.

lost his mind.

Even his own allies can draw their swords and fight, just to live temporarily.

If you let these mercenaries rush into the village, and see the nobles still looking at all this in neat clothes, killing the red-eyed mercenaries, it is estimated that they will be furious and cause a bigger conflict.

This is absolutely possible, it has happened many times in history, and the nobles know it all too well.

The madness of class.

Especially in riots!

Mercenaries are not good guys. When there is no lord to hire, part-time robbers are also common, or they are robbers.

There is no separation between the two at all!

But the situation became more tense.

It was impossible for the nobles to let panicked mercenaries into the village.

The mercenaries who were being slaughtered and slaughtered did not have the courage to fight back. Instead, they were more skilled at killing friendly troops and taking the chance of survival for themselves.

They were killing each other, and they even started to form gangs in twos and threes, rushing to kill the noble infantry in the village.

only.

The sharp and dense point of the gun makes no mercenary dare to mess up.

But in this short ten minutes, at least 800+ mercenaries were completely turned into corpses, and nearly 3000+ mercenaries had scars of varying severity on their bodies.

A small part is done by the elite desert robbers.

most.

caused by cannibalism.

As for Rolfe and his light cavalry, they received little resistance at all.

Except for a few people who were injured by the mercenaries who counterattacked by the Jedi, almost 99% of the desert robbers did not suffer any casualties. After wanton trampling on the tents of the outside group of mercenaries and turning everything upside down, they chose to retreat.

This was originally a raid, and it was this group of mercenaries who were caught off guard.

It can't be too long.

Because during this period of time, many mercenaries who found themselves in danger began to form a group.

After all, most of the mercenary's tents were not damaged much. After the initial riots passed, the mercenary captains shouted to organize their subordinates and began to take precautions.

This made the desert robbers, who were not good at melee combat, have no good solution.

Retreat is the best option.

Of course Rolfe would not hesitate, he was the best light cavalry commander.

When this raid faced difficulties, he directly issued an order to retreat, leading the desert robbers to leave in a hurry, disappearing into the vast plain in the dark, and soon lost their traces.

And soon after they left, the unrest outside the village subsided.

The regular armies of the nobles have regained order.

After killing some of the mercenaries who took advantage of the chaos, these noble coalition forces returned to peace.

However, everyone understands that this raid has ripped apart their seemingly huge numerical advantage, and even turned this advantage into a bloated one because of mutual distrust and greed in everyone's hearts. disadvantage.

If it was a regular army unit, it would have been united long ago, and each formed a formation to resist the surprise attack.

Although there will be casualties, but definitely not so much.

30,000 troops.

It was almost collapsed by 1,000 cavalry.

It's a bit ridiculous to say this, but it also proves that most of these noble coalition forces are rabble!

Of course, this is related to the lack of defense of the noble coalition, but if it is an elite force, how could it be possible for Rolfe to succeed in the night attack? Without any excuse or reason, this was a serious defeat, and on the eve of the attack on Stone Pass, it caused a serious morale blow.
