Chapter 435

    So, commander sapeja, who was ordered at the critical moment, hurriedly assembled 15000 Polish cavalry and 5000 Lithuanian cavalry. The cavalry assembled in such a hurry that some of them were wearing armor while riding horses.


    In the position of the mercenary regiment, Pedro tried to pull argildas, who was heavily armed on his horse, off his horse.


    "What are you going to do?!" Pedro shouted angrily to Algirdas.


    Around argildas, the squadron of winged cavalry assembled by him was watching the dispute between the captain and the commander at a loss, wondering what to do.


    "Captain, I''m going to fight the Swede. Don''t you see that the enemy has rounded our flanks? If we don''t beat them back, we''ll all be finished." algerdas explained anxiously to Pedro. He watched as commander sapega led the cavalry to roll up a huge cloud of smoke and dust to the East.


    Algerdas knew it would be too late if he didn''t chase.


    But algerdas'' explanation completely failed to convince Pedro. He thought that argildas was raising his rank in nachechen and his possessions.


    Al gildas rejoined the mercenary Regiment under Natalie''s introduction this time. Pedro, who had learned a lesson once, knew his details clearly. All algerdas wanted was to make contributions and revive his family. For this purpose, he would do anything. He wanted to take part in the raid of commander sapega on the Swedish Prussian coalition, which was nothing more than this purpose.


    The cavalry was the treasure of the mercenary regiment, especially after two hundred Hessian cavalry were taken away by Chechen. If King kazimiz or commander sapega ordered the mercenary regiment to send cavalry, Pedro could only give up even if the cavalry had no heart. But now, there is no order for the mercenary regiment to send troops. Argildas is acting without authorization.


    Pedro ordered bachit, father sparsokukotsky and others to disarm the people of Algirdas, but the two men got up with the mud.


    Originally, Cherchen left sparsokukotsky and others, not only because they were poles and worried that they would be exposed after they went to Crimea, but also because they were left to fight in the mainland of the Republic, which could mobilize their fighting enthusiasm of defending the country to the greatest extent.


    But in today''s special situation, sparso kukotsky and others are separated from Pedro, who is determined to preserve his strength for Cherchen, because of patriotism.


    "Captain, let them go to argyrdas. If they play well, they will also add honor to our mercenary regiment. You also have light on your face." father sparsokukotsky rarely flattered.


    Bachit also said, "yes, Pedro. Our mercenary regiment is also a member of the Republic Army. Our infantry can''t catch up. We have to let the cavalry catch up."


    Father sparsokukotsky and bachit held Pedro together, but no one stopped argildas. And the Polish infantry around us were unstoppable.


    Seeing this situation, algerdas didn''t know that they were aiming at themselves. Algerdas said loudly, "Captain Pedro, this is the last time I disobey your order. If I can come back alive from the battlefield, I will serve you and captain Chechen all my life."


    With that, argildas turned his horse''s head and led the wing cavalry squadron of the mercenary regiment to chase after the gradually dissipated smoke.


    "Bastard! Bastard! You are all bastards!" Pedro cursed loudly. He didn''t know whether he was scolding argildas, the cavalry squadron he took away, or father sparsokukotsky and bakhte around him.


    Commander sapeja led 20000 cavalry to the east of the forest at the fastest speed. They could not wait for the artillery to arrive and launched an attack.


    At this time, the army led by Karl X had already noticed that the cavalry group led by sapega was around their flank. Carl x personally led 7500 Swedish cavalry, 3000 Swedish infantry and 20 guns to meet the enemy, while the German infantry continued to attack under the cover of artillery and took the simple bastion.


    Carl X was well aware of the impact power of the winged cavalry of the Republic of Poland. In order to prevent his formation from being penetrated by the winged cavalry, Carl x rarely arranged all the troops according to three lines. In the middle of each military array were Swedish long spearmen and Musketeers, while the cavalry were arranged on both wings for cover.


    Moreover, Carl x also arranged all the artillery in the front of the military array. He hoped that in the first round of the battle, he would use the most fierce artillery to defeat the charge of the Polish winged cavalry and eliminate the greatest threat to his side in this battle.


    The commander of sapega naturally took a thousand Polish winged cavalry as the arrow of attack, and they will launch the biggest assault in this campaign. Once the Swedish army is broken by the unstoppable wing cavalry, thousands of other cavalry will like the whole Swedish army and cut all the Swedes into melons and vegetables.


    At 5:30 p.m., a thousand winged cavalry were ready to attack the whole line of the Swedish army.


    Under the leadership of commander sapeja, the winged cavalry made a simple prayer before the battle. They made a cross on their chest. Some kissed their ancestral sabers and swords, while others began to put down the huge nose guard on their helmets.


    After that, commander sapeja waved his Scepter towards the Swedish army, and all the winged cavalry slowly entered the battle area under the command of the captain.


    The Swedish artillery began firing at the winged cavalry without waiting for them to charge. Raindrops of shells fell beside the winged cavalry, and from time to time, the winged cavalry fell off their horses, but on the whole, the army array of the winged cavalry was as firm as a wall.


    At a distance of 300 meters from the Swedish army, the winged cavalry began to advance in small steps. Before reaching the most suitable charging distance, that is, 100 meters, skilled wing cavalry will pace forward in a relatively loose formation in order to save energy and avoid bullets. The faster they move forward, the closer the formation is.


    At a distance of about 100 meters from the enemy, the winged cavalry began a full charge. At this time, the Swedish artillery had replaced solid shells with grape shells. During this charge, the winged cavalry quickly changed the array while praying not to be shot by bullets, turning the loose formation into a very tight wall charge array.


    At a distance of 50 meters from the enemy, with the order of the team leaders, all the winged cavalry leveled their lances. This action seemed to set up a forest of guns in front of the war horse. In order to save arm strength, the wing cavalry will put the end of the super long cavalry gun into a leather sleeve tied to the saddle, which can not only save strength, but also give full play to the impact force of the super long cavalry gun to the greatest extent, and prevent the super long cavalry gun from getting rid of due to reaction force when it hits the enemy.


    Facing the gun forest of winged cavalry, the Swedish artillery fired for the last time and the second time since the war. Grape bombs fired from the muzzle, accompanied by thick smoke, erected a tangible smoke wall in front of the artillery position.


    At this moment, the huge roar made the soldiers temporarily deaf. The battlefield seemed to be quiet for a moment.
