Second Charge

Alexander's charge had unfortunately missed the unit Ural and his cousin was in, thus enabling both men to manage to withstand the initial blow.

But withstanding the psychological blow was far harder, as evidenced by how both the men stayed rooted to their spot momentarily not knowing what to do, only looking ahead dumbfoundedly as they took in the visceral horror around them.

All around there were their fallen comrades, strew about, groaning and screaming in pain, while behind them was a pile-up of horses ad men as they were unable to stop in time against the charge.

'Wha…what happened?' Almost every one of them asked because they were unable to understand how this had happened.

Because according to their logic, Alexander and his co should have been skewered just like the people on the ground.
