As the time approached noon, a huge cloud of smoke rose on the distant horizon, which was so large that it even covered half the sky.


    King kazimizh stood on a small fort in his position. He raised his hand and put the telescope close to his eyes. In the dust, the king saw the faint breastplate of the Swedish cavalry reflected in the sun.


    "There are at least a thousand cavalry," said the king of kazimi.


    "No, my king. At least two thousand. And I saw the elector''s flag," said commander sapega.


    "Have all our fortifications been built?"


    "God bless. All the fortifications have been built. We have not only dug a trench three meters deep, but also built three anti horses built with sharp wooden stakes behind the trench. The infantry position is raised with the soil excavated from the trench, and the slope is also built." sapega said proudly. This is all his experience gained from fighting with the Cossacks and czar Russia in the past. Through such strict defense, he can effectively block the attack of the enemy cavalry.


    King kazimiz nodded. He stopped talking and continued to wait and see.


    On the mercenary regiment''s position, Pedro also noticed the smoke on the horizon. He ordered all the soldiers of the mercenary regiment to be ready for battle. The three squadrons of long Gunners with long guns were sent to the middle of the sharp stakes. They would act as living horses and stab the approaching enemy off their horses. Behind the long spearmen are three neat rows of musketeers, who are the main force of firepower output. When the Swedish cavalry can''t retreat when they resist the horse, they will reap the enemy''s life.


    Most of the positions of other Polish troops were arranged in the same way.


    The Swedish cavalry stopped outside the artillery range of the Polish army position. This is the vanguard of a Swedish army, commanded by count owar von Goya.


    Count owar von Goya is a veteran with rich combat experience under Karl X. he can see at a glance that the Polish position is extremely solid and the firepower allocation is reasonable. If the cavalry trade rashly attacks, he will suffer huge losses.


    At this time, count owar von Goya made an extremely bold move. He jumped forward, entered the artillery coverage of the Polish army, was out of the range of the Polish Army''s muskets, and then ran in front of the Polish position from left to right.


    "What a warrior."


    King kazimizh, who saw the count''s actions through a thousand mile mirror, praised.


    "Your Majesty, he is investigating our army''s position and demonstrating to us," kishka warned.


    "Of course I know," said King kazimiz.


    Then he sighed again: "if possible, I really want to catch such a warrior alive."


    "Then, your majesty, will you send a team of cavalry to bring him alive?" the Chamberlain beside king kazimiz quickly suggested to the king.


    King kazimiz thought and shook his head.


    "Forget it," said the king.


    Commander sapega on one side understood.


    He made a gesture to the gunner next to the king. After predicting the advance, the gunner fired a shot in the direction of the movement of count owar von Goya.


    The shells landed three meters away next to the count, and then three more shells landed next to count owar von Goya, but count owar von Goya was unmoved. He insisted on patrolling all the Polish positions.


    This greatly boosted the morale of the Swedish cavalry, while the Polish army was very depressed due to the disorder of its own artillery.


    Count owar von Goya returned to his starting position. He jumped off the horse without waiting for it to stop.


    A Ma Bian hurried forward to lead the count''s horse, while an adjutant came forward with a notebook.


    The count wrote and drew in his notebook for a while, then tore off the page and gave it to the adjutant.


    "Give this to his majesty," said count owar von Goya.


    The adjutant took the paper and the Pegasus went towards the rear.


    At two o''clock in the afternoon, the count''s adjutant returned.


    "Count, your Majesty''s army will come here in the evening. Your majesty orders you to attack the Polish positions," said the adjutant.


    When the adjutant said that Carl x ordered himself to attack, count owar von Goya showed an unbelievable expression.


    "Did your majesty see the picture I gave you?"


    "I see."


    Count oval von Goya meditated for a moment. His eyebrows frowned. He didn''t understand why Carl x, who had always been wise and wise, gave him such absurd orders - it was like asking his soldiers to die!


    The officers around the count looked at owar von Goya and waited for the count''s order.


    After a while, owar von Goya sighed.


    He said, "prepare to attack."


    "Get ready!" cried Pedro.


    When he saw the Swedish cavalry in the distance in the shape of "a", he knew that the enemy was going to attack. Hearing the commander''s order, all the spearmen of the mercenary regiment knelt down on one knee. They poked their spears on the ground, pointing at the front at an angle of 45 degrees.


    Without artillery support, the Swedish cavalry launched its first charge. Four hundred Swedish Lancers led, followed by seven hundred Swedish dragoons.


    The Polish artillery began to fire. Shells rained down and the battlefield was dusty. From time to time, cavalry shot fell from their horses.


    Due to the limited width of the front of the battlefield, the Swedish offensive force in a large fan has shrunk a lot when it approaches the position of the Polish army. The cavalry scrambled to kill the enemy on the front and charged on the potholes just ploughed by artillery.


    At this time, the Polish artillery in the forest quietly stretched out the muzzle. This is a secret artillery position, where Polish artillery deployed ten cannons. When the attacking Swedes spread a wide line of troops in order to reduce the losses caused by frontal artillery, the artillery deployed here occupied the prefix "t" relative to the enemy, and the artillery could more effectively use fire to deal devastating attacks on them. The artillery commander in charge of the position here anxiously waited for the order from the king, and they would fire as long as king kazimiz gave the order, But until the Swedish cavalry approached the front of the Polish army, the order did not come.


    Of course, there was no flank fire, but there was only a layer of danger for the Swedish cavalry, and there were still many difficulties waiting for them.


    Because the Polish Army laid a camouflage net on the trench in advance, they found the existence of the trench when a Swedish Lancer accidentally fell into the bottom of the trench. The Swedish cavalry who rushed to the front quickly stopped the horse, but it was so easy for the high-speed charging horse to stop. More than half of the Swedish Lancers fell into the trench, and most of them fell to death or were injured.


    The Swedish dragoons, who followed closely, were able to control their horses in time because their horses were not fast. They dismounted in front of the ditch. Then he rushed up from several exits reserved by the poles on the trench. Some Swedish Lancers who survived falling down the trench also climbed up from the trench and continued to attack. At this point, they will face the sharp wooden pile.


    In front of this position of the mercenary regiment, the Swedes have to face not only the pointed stake, but also the forest of long guns protruding from the pointed stake. After the bloody battle of capturing Warsaw, the recruits of the mercenary regiment gradually grew up. Now, they will not panic even when they face the Swedish pistol cavalry like iron cans.


    Bachit was splashed with blood all over his face. It was a Swedish breastplate Lancer who was lucky enough to jump over the ditch. After jumping over the ditch, the poor guy couldn''t stop. His horse just hit a sharp stake. He himself flew straight out of the saddle and plunged into the forest of guns. The Swedish breastplate Lancer also became the first Swedish soldier to die under the mercenary regiment today.


    Bachit wiped the blood on his face, which made his face more ferocious. Seven Swedish Lancers rushed forward. Bachit took a step forward, raised his hatchet above his head with both hands, and then chopped at the head of a Swedish Lancer. The Swedish Lancer hurriedly raised his broadsword to block.


    The long handled axe and the broadsword made a harsh noise. The Swedish Lancer couldn''t bear the power of bachit and fell on one knee. Bachit was powerful. His long handled axe pressed the dagger of the Swedish pistol cavalry to death, and the axe pointed up and down the wide brimmed hat of the Swedish pistol cavalry bit by bit.


    Two Swedish Lancers saw that their companions'' lives were in danger. At the same time, they took out their swords to pick up bachit''s long handled axe. Bachit took a step back and dodged back into the team.


    Three Swedish Lancers were killed at the same time. But they found that after their short broadsword split a long gun, there were three or four long guns waiting for themselves; When he swings a long gun into his chest, his leg or arm is attacked. What is more desperate is that even if their short broadsword cuts off the enemy''s long gun, they can''t cut the sharp stake in front of them.


    The Swedish Lancers, who were not good at close combat and hand to hand combat, tried in vain several times and were forced back. They could only shoot the long Lancers hiding between the horse posts with pistols. But the damage and killing efficiency of the pistol to the enemy are not even as good as a dragon cavalry. At least the carbine in the Dragon cavalry''s hand can cause damage to the long gunmen hiding in the pointed stake at a longer distance.


    Moreover, Swedes are not the only ones with guns.


    Seeing the Swedish cavalry stalled by long gunners and sharp stakes, Pedro decisively gave the order to shoot.


    "Fire!"


    The gunshot rang out, and the sharp wooden stake immediately lifted up a blood mist.


    No matter how good and strong the breastplate is, it can''t stop the short-range shooting of the musket, not to mention that some Swedish Musketeers have more than one bullet in their bodies. Their bodies fell down and bent an unknown number of long guns.


    The spearmen in the front row rushed out of the sharp stake with their spears. They stabbed one Swedish breastplate Lancer after another to the ground and pushed them all into the ditch.


    Seeing that the attack was unfavorable, the first wave of Swedish cavalry began to retreat. Strictly speaking, they did not retreat, but ran around in disorder. Some people crashed into the forest on the side of the battlefield, and they never came out again; More people jumped down the visva River in despair.


    Count owar von Goya watched this scene, and his heart was dripping blood.


    "Your Majesty, have all your wisdom and wisdom been consumed in Prussia?" thought count owar von Goya.


    "Count, shall we continue our attack?" asked an officer.


    "Keep attacking."


    Ordered count owar von Goya. He decided to use all his strength to attack again, so that even if he failed (although it was inevitable in the count''s view), he could make a difference to Carl X.


    More than 1000 cavalry soldiers who had not fought before dismounted and rearranged their formation. They took the Swedish dragon cavalry as the vanguard, followed by the black cavalry, and launched an attack on foot like a mountain.


    The battle became white hot at the beginning. The Polish artillery fired as hard as they could, but the heavy artillery could not stop the advance of the Swedish cavalry. They trampled through the gap, over the bodies of their companions in the trench, and attacked the pointed stake.


    Every Swedish dragon cavalry is equipped with carbines, and the black cavalry has at least two or three pistols. They shot with muskets as they moved forward. For a time, the firepower was even more ferocious than that of Polish Musketeers.


    In front of several positions, Polish long gunners and Musketeers slammed the black cavalry climbing the slope after crossing the sharp stake with their long guns and butt, but their attack seemed so weak in the face of the Leather Breastplate of the black cavalry.


    The mercenary regiment led by Pedro was also under great pressure. Bachit was hit in the head by a black cavalry with a pistol and fell to the ground on the spot. The soldiers around him fought hard to get him back. The other soldiers were unable to fight in close combat under the attack of pistols, and had to flee one after another.


    From a high point of view, the positions of the Polish army, which used to be in a straight line, have been concave in several places, and the gap is still expanding.


    Fortunately, this was also the last outbreak of the Swedish army. After firing all the pistols, they had to engage in close combat with Polish soldiers. After the commanders of several positions timely sent reserve teams to support, the offensive momentum of the Swedish cavalry was finally blocked.


    The last straw to overwhelm the Swedish cavalry came from the Polish artillery hidden in the forest. They fired at the most critical moment. The cannons fired shells straight across the formation of the Swedish cavalry, and no armor or body could stop the cannons. Ten guns kept making blood hutongs on the position, and each shell could take the lives of more than ten Swedish cavalry, while count owar von Goya had no means to counteract because of his lack of guns.


    "Retreat."


    Seeing nothing to do, count owar von Goya clenched his teeth and squeezed out the order to retreat.
