Chapter 1083: Chapter 664: Unexpected Strong Enemy (Part 1)_1 Chapter 1083: Chapter 664: Unexpected Strong Enemy (Part 1)_1 As they galloped forward, when the soldiers of the Second Prince’s vanguard and left wing saw their opponents were heavily armored cavalry, whose defenses were as tight as canned food with no apparent weaknesses, they couldn’t help but swallow their saliva in fear.

They were merely ordinary light cavalry, and the warhorses they rode were common plain horses.

On the other hand, the heavy cavalry’s warhorses were mostly stronger snowfield horses from the kingdom’s northern territory, which were at least five times more expensive.

Moreover, the ordinary light armor they wore was incomparable to the thick heavy armor of their opponents, with a significant difference in cost as well.

Lastly, the heavy cavalry was selected from the most elite cavalry, with extremely stringent requirements for horsemanship, physical fitness, and strength… none of which was something they could compete with.

The assault cavalry flanking the heavy cavalry did have some fighting capacity, but the enemy was clearly using a sharp-pointed formation, concentrating the lesser quantity of heavy cavalry at the head position.

If they fought close-ranged, their charging formation would undoubtedly be torn apart in the first instance.

At this thought, the commanders of the Second Prince’s vanguard and left wing simultaneously made a wise decision.

That was to use the high mobility of their light cavalry to quickly change their charging formation from a central protruding sharp-pointed formation to a double sharp-pointed formation with sides protruding and center hollow. This way, they could bypass the Great Prince’s oncoming heavy cavalry and focus on attacking the assault cavalry on both sides of the enemy.

After all, the enemy had at most five thousand soldiers, with two thousand heavy cavalry. They still had seven thousand men left, and as long as they eliminated the three thousand assault cavalry first, they could at least make up for some losses suffered on their right flank.

As for those heavily armored cavalry, they could leave them to their allies following after them.

Thus, under the guidance of the flag bearers at the front, the Second Prince’s seven thousand light cavalry swiftly changed into a double sharp-pointed formation, charging straight towards the Great Prince’s oncoming heavy cavalry and assault cavalry.

Shining lances pointed directly at the Great Prince’s cavalry camp, and a torrent of murderous intent that converged together shook the air.

“Their formation change is quite fast, it seems that the Second Prince’s cavalry is also extraordinary.”

Atop the mountain, Burt’s aged face showed a hint of approval as he spoke, “This tactic of avoiding the hard and seizing the soft, picking weak spots to strike, can often yield significant results.”

“Indeed, that’s true.”

Joshua’s crisp voice rang out, “If they were to confront the Great Prince’s heavy cavalry head-on, the Second Prince’s light cavalry would undoubtedly suffer even greater casualties. If they can concentrate over twice the advantage in numbers and eliminate the Great Prince’s assault cavalry, it would be an excellent opportunity to make up for the losses on the right flank.”

“Interesting, it seems that in addition to the pre-battle planning, the commander’s on-the-spot reactions are also extremely important.”

Leo Ray’s gaze was fixed on the changing battlefield below as he nodded thoughtfully.

For Leo Ray, this observation of the battle was undoubtedly an excellent learning opportunity.

Only by experiencing such an immersive situation, could he better understand the judgment of the commanders on both sides and quickly accumulate his own battlefield experience.

“You know, this kind of pure cavalry versus cavalry confrontation is quite rare.”

“After all, in most battlefields, cavalry positioned on both wings of the infantry act as fast maneuvering tactical forces, attacking the weakest flanks and rear of the enemy, while the real main force on the battlefield remains the massive infantry formations.”

With these thoughts in mind, Leo Ray’s eyes became even more intense.

On the battlefield below the mountain, the sand was flying, and the sound of galloping hooves still echoed incessantly.

In no time at all, the Second Prince’s seven thousand light cavalry with a double sharp-pointed formation clashed fiercely with the Great Prince’s five thousand heavy cavalry and assault cavalry with a single sharp-pointed formation like two swords with opposing sharp tips!

Boom! Boom! Bang! Boom! Bang!

As a series of intense muffled sounds resounded continuously,

The neighing of warhorses and the screams of cavalrymen interwove, the dust and blood mist dancing together in the air, creating a truly heart-stirring scene.

Apart from the cavalrymen whose horses’ heads collided forcefully,

Many cavalrymen were hit by the slender lances thrust by their opponents, either being directly dismounted or being pierced through by the incredibly sharp lance tips.

Regardless of which fate befell them, there was clearly no chance of survival. The former faced the stampede of heavy hooves, while the latter became trophies hung on the opponent’s lance.

“So this is the confrontation between cavalries? It’s truly astounding.”

Looking at the intense and shocking scene below the mountain, Leo Ray couldn’t help but swallow his saliva.

Although he was on the summit that wouldn’t be impacted, the smell of blood still filled his nostrils.

However, after the initial shock, Leo Ray quickly discovered something astonishing.

Like two crab pincers, the Second Prince’s light cavalry concentrated their superior forces to attack the weaker part of the Great Prince’s camp, the assault cavalry, but they didn’t gain the slightest advantage.

Instead, they were attacked chaotically by the assault cavalry of the Great Prince, who had less than half their numbers and had no advantage in formation, resulting in the light cavalry of the Second Prince having almost no resistance.
