Lieutenant Archie withdrew with his armored Cossacks. Although every soldier fought bravely in the battle just now, they were defeated in the confrontation between muskets and arrows, plate armor and Chain Armor, long guns and sabers.


    "Major, it''s no way for us to fight like this. These mercenaries are obviously prepared. They choose this road to restrain our cavalry." Archie ran to yezh halletsky and advised him.


    Yaqi said all this, and Jeri haretsk did not understand. Old siegmont and his winged cavalry were dead long ago, even the weakest infantry. If they hid behind the fortification, it would be difficult for the cavalry to do anything about them.


    In Ukraine, many times the Republic''s Armored Cavalry (including winged cavalry, armored Cossacks and pistol cavalry) besieged zaporoze''s Cossacks, but they just couldn''t break the fortifications surrounded by Cossacks with carriages. They had to limit each other''s mobility with time-consuming and laborious sieges, waiting for the subsequent infantry and artillery to arrive.


    But now the colonel had no infantry in his hands, nor even the smallest three pound gun. Otherwise, such a simple fortification could be destroyed by a few shells.


    "Listen, Colonel, the gunfire in the forest behind us has stopped."


    Without waiting for Jerzy halletsky to think of a way, Paul suddenly reminded the colonel.


    There was no gunfire in the rear forest. Maybe the Colonel''s infantry cleared the harassing enemy, or maybe they were all destroyed by the enemy. Both possibilities exist.


    The uncertainty of the matter upset the colonel, but he couldn''t help worrying about whether he would be caught on both sides by the mercenary regiment. However, he had to divide his troops again and let Paul take 50 dragon cavalry to protect the back of the team.


    "Colonel, what shall we do?"


    After Paul left, Archie asked the question again.


    "Continue the attack. Let the soldiers move some trees and shoot at them. Your armored Cossacks shoot the Musketeers behind the fortification, and we''ll attack when they''re almost dead." Jeri haretsky said. It was also the only way he could think of to reduce casualties.


    Crouching behind the fortification, Chechen saw the enemy opposite enter the forest. After a while, he heard the sound of trees falling to the ground in the forest. Although he didn''t know what Jerzy halletsky was going to do, he still asked everyone to guard.


    After a while, the man who had just entered the woods came out. The difference was that they carried a bundle of wooden rafts, one high and one wide, tied together with four or five non peeled trunks. When the Musketeers were out of range, the wooden rafts were erected opposite the mercenary regiment position.


    At this moment, even the stupidest man could see that Jerzy halletsky wanted the cavalry to hide behind the raft and shoot at the mercenary regiment. Chechen quickly ordered the Musketeers to shoot at the enemy behind the raft, but the raft was flush with people''s heads. All the bullets hit the raft and didn''t hurt anyone behind.


    Soon, the armored Cossacks hiding behind the raft hit back.


    With wooden rafts to resist bullets, armored Cossacks can safely bow and shoot arrows. They put the arrows in the quiver on the ground for use, and then with Archie''s order, all the archers shot feather arrows at the same time.


    After this wave of feather arrows crossed the air, they fell on the position of the mercenary regiment like raindrops. As it fell from mid air, the soldiers on the position had no place to escape. More than half of the musketeers and bachit''s people were injured and wailed everywhere on the position.


    Almost at the same time that the first wave of feather arrows fell, the second wave of feather arrows crossed the sky and fell down. This time, the armored Cossacks shot more accurately and more densely. Then the third wave, the fourth wave


    "Get out, get out."


    Only four waves of blows shook the refugee ranks with relatively weak fighting will. They called friends and fled towards the rear, ignoring the friendly forces around them.


    The musketeers of the mercenary regiment also suffered heavy casualties. Nearly half of the Musketeers were shot, and the rest barely survived against the trench and parapet.


    "Shit, these timid guys are really unreliable." Pedro, who was close to the breast wall of the trench, looked at the scattered refugees behind him and couldn''t help scolding.


    "Uncle, I can''t go on like this. I''ll lead the long spearmen to destroy their raft, or we''ll all die here." Chechen pulled out the thin sword around his waist and said to Pedro.


    Pedro shook his head and said, "you''re the leader. You stay and I''ll go. Then you retreat with the rest."


    With that, without waiting for Cherchen''s consent, he took father sparsokukotsky and more than 20 long gunmen, raised a board to cover the horse, and then jumped out of the breast wall.


    The spearmen threw down their customary spears and cut the raft with their swords at their waist. Pedro''s sword was so sharp that he cut off the rope that tied the raft and broke it apart.


    The unfettered trunk fell to the ground. The armored Cossacks who hid behind and shot did not expect that since the mercenary regiment would take the initiative to attack at this time, they were stunned to see the wooden raft falling apart.


    Taking advantage of the opportunity of the enemy''s stupidity, Pedro went up and split the head of a armored Cossack in two. Then, the spearmen behind him also poured in from this gap, chopping the armored Cossacks holding bows and arrows.


    After a brief panic, the armored Cossacks finally recovered. They threw away their bows and arrows, picked up sabers and shields and killed them with the mercenaries. This time, the armored Cossacks were numerous, and the mercenaries of the mercenary regiment were soon forced back to the gap.


    Pedro''s hand half sword swept away and was blocked by two shields. The soldiers behind the shield shrunk their arms tied to the shield, and then pushed Pedro''s hand and half sword away.


    While Pedro''s old strength was gone and his new strength was not born, a Cossack waved a saber and split into Pedro''s chest. At this time, the tip of Pedro''s sword pointed to the ground and it was too late to carry the sword block. In desperation, Pedro had to take the knife with his breastplate.


    The saber slipped on Pedro''s Breastplate and only made a white mark. Pedro took the opportunity to return to the sword, picked up the saber of another armored Cossack and retreated two steps behind him.


    "Get out!"


    At this time, the spearmen who rushed into the enemy line with Pedro have fallen seven or eight, and the wounded Musketeers have also been helped out by Cherchen.


    Spasokukotsky beat back a armored Cossack in front of him with his sword, then pulled out a pistol at his waist and shot the armored Cossack. After firing the gun, the priest quickly retreated to his position regardless of whether he succeeded or not.


    Pedro and others who crossed the horse pulled off the board, and then ran away without looking back.


    Colonel Jerzy halletsky could not easily let the mercenary regiment escape. He pulled out his saber and waved it in the direction of Pedro''s escape: "chase me! Kill one and I''ll reward a hundred Taylor."
