The scene of the galloping horses was so shocking that Rostislav's men trembled just looking at it, and even got a little confused.
In the chaos, Prince Rus noticed the Borovets riders moving around the horses. They drove the horses with spears and whipped the horses with whips. The horses with wounds became even more crazy, which in turn drove other horses to go crazy.
These riders limit the impact direction of the horses to the greatest extent, so that they can only attack in the direction that the Bolovets need. Of course, this is also extremely dangerous. If you are not careful, you will be overturned among the horses, and then be killed by countless people.
Trampled by horse hooves.
A shout of herdsmen caught his attention again, which was the war command of the Bolovets barbarians. Prince Ross saw groups of Borovets on horseback holding scimitars, spears or bows riding in front of them.
However, they ignored the Russian army on the left and charged directly.
Rostislav's army did not watch. The archers and crossbowmen fired rounds of arrows, hitting many Porovets. The riders got off their horses in embarrassment and carried them to the ground covered with arrows and corpses.
, but they had no intention of stopping and continued to follow the horses.
The prince couldn't help but change his expression, the Polovets really wanted to break through from the center!
But his surprise did not last long, because he saw that the friendly troops around him collapsed. Those soldiers abandoned their defensive offensive and ran away without fighting the Polovts.
This undoubtedly affected Rostislav's men. The morale of many people was shaken, and chaos appeared in the queue. The line that was still barely maintained was about to collapse. Prince Ross could only rush into the queue immediately, and his soldiers
Save his team with his followers.
This is actually a problem arranged by Yaroslav. The tactical requirement of the left wing is just to hold on to the position. Therefore, the troops deployed here are not strong troops. Most of them are farmers. If these people fight regular battles, it will be fine, but in the face of
In such an impactful scene, direct collapse is inevitable.
As for the black hats who strengthened the left wing, Rostislav could no longer see this group of people. They no longer knew when they ran away...
Just when Rostislav was in trouble, the galloping horses collided with the Russian defense. They first had "close" contact with the horses. The entire chest of the front horse was directly penetrated by wooden thorns, and the horse even
He died without even making a scream, and the scene was played out in dozens of places at the same time. The most exaggerated example was that the war horse was directly lifted into the air by the reaction force, and fell from the sky to crush several Russian soldiers who were caught off guard.
However, they also broke the sharp wooden thorns with death, and the corpses also used the momentum to hit the carriage. The Russian soldiers on it either fled or were shaken off the carriage.
More horses collided with the carriage. Even if the collision caused a bloody head and was dying, the horses still stepped on the corpses of the same kind and rushed into the collision. After all, they were pushed by the same kind behind and driven by humans. And here.
Under the continuous impact, those carriages that were lucky were knocked away, while those that were unlucky fell apart and turned into a pile of junk.
Now that both roadblocks have been resolved, the horses on the grassland are rushing around the Ross army formation like wildfire, as crazy as the fire snakes (meteorites) flying in the night sky, and the flames have not yet
If the law is extinguished, it can only be allowed to develop.
Many soldiers subconsciously dodge when they see the galloping horses. The furious horses directly extinguish their desire to fight. However, there are so many horses running in that many people will be knocked down no matter how much they avoid it.
It is very difficult to get up after being knocked to the ground. After all, there are crowds and horses running around everywhere, and with so many feet stepping on them, a living person will turn into a dead person in a short time.
However, there were also brave men who stood proudly and greeted the charging beasts with battle axes and swords. Those with superb skills had no problem taking advantage of the situation to kill the horses, but many were knocked over or even knocked away. After falling to the ground,
No matter how good the armor is, it will be difficult to stand up.
Fortunately, as time went by, more and more horses ran away. After all, they were driven together by whips and spears before and were forced to attack the Russian military formation. Now that the military formation finally broke through, they naturally
Also scattered away.
But the situation did not improve at all, because just behind the horses, the Polovtsian brigade stepped over the ruins and corpses and entered the already chaotic Russian front!
The Ross people, who had been beaten dizzy by the waves, faced the wolf-like nomadic cavalry. It is obvious what would happen. Countless Ross warriors who were still confused were cut off from their horses by scimitars and simply resisted for a while.
After that, the Russians couldn't help but retreat.
"Put in the reserves immediately and let the soldiers hold it back. We must win."
The Grand Duke on the hillside watched all this with a dark face. He was surrounded by soldiers who drew their swords and prepared to fight. He had no idea that the Polovets would come, which directly brought the main infantry to the verge of collapse.
But fortunately, he still has a card in his hand, which is a total of two thousand soldiers. They are full of fighting spirit, well-equipped, and are always ready to fight. The attack of the horse group did not affect them much. This is his last reserve team.
It is also the team he can finally stabilize the situation with.
Although now that the Chinese army has almost completely collapsed, it is completely a tactic to invest more troops in it, but he has no choice at all. The left and right wings have not collapsed yet. His children and grandchildren are there. If he withdraws rashly,
Wouldn't it directly expose them to the attacks of the Polovets? Moreover, the battle has just begun and there is still more to fight.
Therefore, even if he knows that this will cause heavy losses to his own soldiers, he must do it. This is a must, there is no reason.

"Father, this move is actually so powerful."
Under the light yellow flag of the Porovets, Khan Brus looked at the fighting of his men with a smile on his face, and the one who sighed was none other than his son Salu.
But in fact, Khan was a little surprised by this effect. If it weren't for the huge losses and dissatisfaction between the various tribes in the previous war, he would not have used this trick. However, the effect was surprisingly good, but he put his expression on it.
Well hidden.
In the previous battle to eliminate the Rus' army in the southwest, the Khan forced the tribes to rush into the strong fortified areas of the Rus, causing many tribes to suffer heavy losses. Many nobles in his own tribe died on that hillside, which made the tribes complain, even if
Even the distribution of spoils and slaves among them failed to curb dissatisfaction, and some were even plotting against the Khan.
Behind him were many nobles and steppe heavy cavalry armed to the teeth. The Polovets had not yet committed their reserves, which were enough to make the final decision.
When these nobles heard what the son of the Khan said, they responded repeatedly, as if their previous doubts did not exist. They saw the strength and power of the Khan, and naturally fell to the ground in obedience again, offering their loyalty to the Khan.
This is also the rule of the game that has never changed in the grassland. The winner takes all.
"Saru, you bring your heavy cavalry to attack the Russian left wing (that is, the Russian right wing). I don't think their wavering is serious."
The Khan then gave the order.
"Yes, father, but is it really bad to leave the Russians' left wing alone?"
Saru was very excited about the order to go out into battle. He also felt that something was wrong. There was still a part of the Ross people still there.
"that."
Busas Khan rubbed the hilt of his gemstone and saw the chaos and rout of the Rus' army on the left.
"They are already on the verge of collapse. Don't worry, just go ahead. Even if something happens, I still have nearly a thousand infantry on hand, and they can protect me enough."
"yes!"
Seeing this, Saru no longer hesitated and responded loudly.
