Duncan’s figure started moving.
He casually picked up a heavy spear, approached the enemy’s direction, accelerating as he ran, with his God’s-eye view locking onto the marked target.
"They’re attacking us!"
Enfiss split open the head of a British Militia in front of him with an axe, immediately creating a breach with his men.
A spear whistled through the air, piercing straight into his body with a thud, the immense impact flinging him off the wooden wall.
Enfiss’s figure fell to the ground, his vision blurring, unable to speak, with a 1.2-meter spear lodged in him, nearly piercing through his chest upon impact.
The elite pirate warriors around quickly scattered, as Duncan’s Franks flying axe whistled through the air, cleaving open an enemy’s skull.
Gaining the first foothold is not easy!
With Enfiss’s death, the pirate forces of the enemy fell into disarray, and at that moment Hosa finally acted, swiftly sending Saxon noble riders to gather the scattered troops in the vicinity, swallowing up Enfiss’s base in one swift move.
By now, the fight was almost over.
The previous waves of attacks had decimated Enfiss’s pirate forces, and only now did his elite heavy infantry start pressing forward.
At the edge of the strategic map, a green-marked army was also approaching the battlefield.
——Exile Private Militia (High Morale) (Slightly Fatigued).
——British Coastal Guard (High Morale) (Long Distance March).
——Celtic Gaul Warriors (High Morale) (Restless) (Possible Unauthorized Charge).
The reinforcements arriving were mostly a bit exhausted.
However, there were exceptions, namely, the traditional Gaul Warriors in better physical condition and with higher military expertise, who appeared not only unfatigued but restless, and their legion’s mark prominently indicated ’possible unauthorized charge’.
Fortunately, there weren’t many of them, otherwise, they might have charged directly.
Kvito led this six hundred-man legion into the battlefield from the right flank, then ambushed them in the nearby woods, seemingly waiting for the opportune moment to attack. Get full chapters from novel·fire.net
This was a fresh force!
If they could flank the enemies at a critical moment, creating a partial pincers attack, they might entirely rout the enemy forces head-on.
On the real battlefield.
Without Duncan’s God’s-eye view, one couldn’t know how many enemies there were. A strong charge inducing chaos would make the enemy think they’re surrounded.
"Summon the cavalry troops!"
Duncan decisively ordered, gathering those units without ’wavering morale’, ’exhausted’, ’gasping’ labels into a main force, positioned near the precarious gate, commanded by Gaulish Oath Warriors under Kulin, holding off Hosa’s Saxon chosen soldiers head-on.
"Once the cavalry exits the city, you immediately maneuver towards the southwest woods and have Kvito prepare to attack."
"As soon as the cavalry moves, they join the battle!"
Duncan personally led over thirty elite cavalry, opening the gate in another direction, and the cavalry galloped, appearing directly on the side of the battlefield, maneuvering straight towards the enemy’s chieftain’s guard.
This move must be a great victory!
He couldn’t afford to deplete his resources here.
Amidst the ensuing chaotic melee, he planned to lead this elite cavalry to cut down generals and seize banners, directly taking the enemy commander’s head from amidst the army!
Now, he was possessed with the spirit of Huang Zhong; given the slightest opportunity, he could strike down Hosa on the field!
