Take the Empire To the Other World

Chapter 98 Attack from Three Sides (First Order)

"For Greater Poland!"

The Polish hussars were the first, a man whose whole body equipment was no different from ordinary Polish hussars. When he was about to approach the flank of Kohl's Swedish dragoons, he suddenly shouted, and then manipulated the horse under his crotch to accelerate suddenly!

The Polish hussars in the back also shouted together and accelerated to run!

Acceleration means that the cavalry enters the final charge stage. During the acceleration process, the speed of the horse will increase with time, forming a huge kinetic energy, and finally it can reach the level that even the infantry spear phalanx will be smashed!

Of course, if they really collide with each other, it will definitely end in a 'car crash', and neither side will get any benefit...

This is the reason why assault cavalry can obviously break through the infantry phalanx by advancing at high speed, but they seldom do so, because it means that both sides will suffer...

If the cavalry are brave enough to attack the infantry phalanx one by one, the infantry will basically have no way to counter the cavalry in the wild!

However, after entering the era of firearms, this situation has been alleviated. After all, the lethality of muskets and artillery on cavalry is far from that of bows and crossbows in the cold weapon era.

Leading the Polish hussars was Second Lieutenant Sigmund Srushka of the United Kingdom of Poland and Lithuania.

The Polish second lieutenant in this era is a different concept from the second lieutenant in Wang Ziming's previous life. It does not mean that low-level officers such as platoon commanders and company commanders. The division of military ranks in the early days was not as detailed as Wang Ziming's previous life. It's like an abbreviation for a military job.

There is no fixed subordinate soldier under his command, just like the current Second Lieutenant Sigmund, the captain of these dozens of Polish hussars!

Because the United Kingdom of Poland and Lithuania did not attach importance to Wang Ziming's power, the army of thousands of people sent out was improvised.

That is to say, the Polish hussars, Polish armored Cossack cavalry, Polish volunteer cavalry, and the Polish-Germanic infantry as the main body each have their own commanders.

Second Lieutenant Sigmund can be regarded as the supreme commander in name because he commanded the Polish hussars with the highest status. The only ones who commanded casually were the dozens of Polish hussars under his command...

However, the rank of the Polish Volunteer Cavalry is low, so Sigmund's command of the Polish Volunteer Cavalry can also be implemented.

Now forming a second charge wave behind the Polish Hussars are the Polish Volunteers!

After Cole found the Polish hussars charging straight forward, he immediately sent all the Swedish dragoons in his hands to resist them, and at the same time urgently ordered the Swedish pikemen on the flanks to temporarily adjust their formation and turn their spearheads.

This kind of temporary change on the battlefield is a test of the soldiers' military quality. Obviously, it will take a long time for the second-tier Swedish pikemen to change formation!

Before that, the Swedish dragoons were needed to hold back the rushing Polish hussars as much as possible.

The sounds of swords being drawn came and went. Facing the rushing Polish hussars, the Swedish dragoons could no longer shoot with muskets on horseback. With the range of muskets in this era, after they aim and pull the trigger, the Polish hussars on the opposite side His lance was also inserted into his chest...

Therefore, the Swedish dragoons naturally chose the traditional way of cavalry duel-saber charge!

This is not the best way of fighting for the Swedish dragoons, but it is the only way they can stop and delay the charge of the Polish hussars!

With a loud cry, hundreds of Swedish dragoons brandishing sabers collided fiercely with dozens of Polish hussars!

Then there was the sound of weapons piercing into flesh, humanoid objects being knocked into the air, and war horses wailing and falling to the ground...

The saber of the Swedish dragoons takes advantage of the inertia brought by the cavalry's high-speed charge, even if it cannot cut through the plate armor on the Polish hussars, it can rely on kinetic energy to cut the Polish hussars under the horse and trample to death.

However, at the moment of staggering, each of the Polish hussars looked like a master of martial arts. The tip of the lance seemed to have eyes, and it was accurately sent into the body of the passing Swedish dragoons. He flexibly dodged the waving saber, and pulled out his own saber to slash at the oncoming Swedish dragoons.

The Swedish dragoons soon discovered that not only were they overwhelmed by the Polish hussars in terms of equipment, but they were also completely beaten by the opponent in terms of skill and reflexes!

Although there were few Polish hussars, the morale of the Swedish dragoons changed from green to yellow and then plummeted to red after this round of hedging!

Lieutenant Sigmund alone beheaded more than ten Swedish dragoons!

Even many Polish hussars deliberately slowed down and turned their horses to chase and kill the Swedish dragoons in order to kill more enemies!

As a result, after the hedging on the battlefield, some Polish hussars turned their horses to follow behind the Swedish dragoons, and used their horses with better charging speed to chase into the Swedish dragoons and continue to kill!

It didn't take long for the second wave of Polish volunteer cavalry to ram into the Swedish dragoons who were being chased by the Polish hussars. The Swedish dragoons whose morale had turned red were instantly punched out with white stripes. It didn't take long. Even the white stripes are gone...

The surviving Swedish dragoons fled in all directions, rushing towards the dark area beyond Wang Ziming's vision...

Hundreds of Swedish dragoons were formed and annihilated in this way!

The entire battle lasted less than half an hour from the start of the Polish hussars' charge!

Afterwards, the Polish hussars returned to the battlefield where the staggered fierce battles were fought, and they made up for the undead Swedish dragoons one by one, without any intention of taking prisoners...

The Polish hussars, who had lost their horses but not yet died, stepped on the captured horses led by their teammates.

Wang Ziming discovered that after a cavalry duel, the casualties of the Polish hussars were only a dozen or so!

After the battle, under the command of Second Lieutenant Sigmund, the Polish hussars and Polish voluntary cavalry quickly regrouped and formed two charging waves again, rushing to the flanks of Cole's infantry brigade, which was no longer covered by cavalry!

At this time, Kohl's Swedish musketeer phalanx had arrived at the flank of the gradually retreating Polish-Germanic infantry, and fired the first round of volleys!

After the Polish-Germanic infantry suffered double firepower, their morale values ​​had all turned yellow, and more than half of them suffered casualties!

It was under such circumstances that Wang Ziming's Swedish cuirassiers inserted fiercely into the right wing of the Polish infantry phalanx, and had a friendly interaction with the Polish Germanic pikemen...

The moment the Swedish cuirassiers rushed in, the morale value of the Polish infantry phalanx had a yellow grid that turned red!
