Rise In Calradia - Chapter 391
“Greyfus’s cub?”
The well-armed noble knight looked sideways at the Rhodok spearman who had fallen to the ground. Under the ripped shirt, the chain armor produced by the craftsmen of Jerkara was clearly marked. In fact, these Skilled craftsmen leave their names and union logos on everything from crossbows to pocket knives to compete with foreign products and other local unions. Through this, it is not difficult to identify the identity of these soldiers.
“Has the King of Rhodok come to the point where he needs to attack the poor merchants to fight his opponents? If Phatis is here, he will definitely call it a disgrace.” The knight seemed to snort, and then put it away Riding a lance, he picked up the mace, looked at the few Rhodok spearmen who were trying to surround him, and then suddenly tightened the reins to speed up the horse, a charge came down, and the mace accurately hit a Rhodok On the head of the spearman, the opponent staggered backwards and fell, and the spear that lost its strength only left a little trace on the plate armor.
“Kill them all!”
The knight roared and rushed towards Catherine and the others. The hooves of the strong war horse and the dancing mace drove the spearmen who were constantly trying to advance. Not far away, a whole team of cavalrymen holding the peony flag high. It was also close. They set up their lances and rushed towards these spearmen. As long as they were not fools, they would know what would happen to these Rhodok spearmen who had not gathered together at all.
The sergeant in charge finally appeared, he rushed out with six people in the reserve team, and shouted for support from the crossbowmen. At this distance, except for the guy in full plate armor, the armor of the others is not enough to fully resist the fire of the heavy crossbow, especially their crossbowmen are spread out, and half of them can shoot from the side. .
But just when the crossbowmen were already stringing their arrows and ready to give the pesky Swadian heavy cavalry a southern military show, another unit under the Peony Banner planned to show them the flowers of the East. live.
Steppe horses move quickly through the woods, they are much smaller than the Swadian steeds, but they move more nimbly in this terrain, with kurgit riders in felt hats and oriental helmets and Horse archers drew bows and arrows at the Rhodoks they found.
The rapid arrow shooting did not actually cause too much damage to the crossbowmen of Rhodok. After all, these Kujits have not fully adapted to the woodlands here, and the other party is very secretive. They never found out. It doesn’t take long to aim until the arrow is fired, everything depends on the proficiency and instinct of the battle. After a burst of shooting, only three Rhodok crossbowmen were shot, and only one of them was seriously injured. After all, these crossbowmen were also armored, with thick padding and cotton armor on the outside. With two layers of decent protection, even if the arrow penetrates the armor, it will not cause too much damage.
However, this round of sudden attack still disrupted the fighting rhythm of the Rhodok soldiers. Many of them pulled out their swords and military hoes to prepare to fight back, only to find that the other party’s cavalry was still dozens of steps away from them. But if they were about to pick up the heavy crossbow, the cavalry would suddenly take up the long spear and charge at them, piercing their bodies before the bolts were wound up and fired. In less than two minutes, at least 50 Khudge cavalrymen blocked the surrounding woodland, using various means to solve or capture the crossbowmen in the woodland.
Without the support of the crossbowmen, the remaining spearmen could not have a chance to defeat a whole team of powerful Swadian heavy cavalry. They only had two choices, or they would raise their spears and fight to the death, and then they would beat themselves up several times over. The heavy cavalry’s lance charging down the chant will break the bones, or put down the weapons and raise both hands to sit on the ground and surrender. In this case, obviously most people will choose the latter. So the battle ended so easily. The reinforcements that suddenly appeared did not take any damage, won the battle, killed most of the invaders, and captured a few prisoners who could be used for interrogation. .
At this time, Wolfhardt and Catherine were stunned to watch all this at first. Both of them had seen a bigger scene than this, but this timely assistance, like the gods coming down to save the world, still let the They feel that life is impermanent.
However, this shock only lasted for a few seconds, Catherine immediately found a place to hide, and Wolfhardt raised his two-handed warhammer to knock down three spearmen near him in a row when the opponent lost the crossbow support. All the way to the front of the golden knight.
“You fought beautifully, warrior, I don’t seem to have heard your name among the mercenaries. Who are you?” The knight got off his horse and asked in a gentle but unquestionable tone.
“Your Excellency, my name is Wolfhardt, from Ripplet, my father is Rodflander, a loyal and brave knight, my grandfather is from Nord, but our family is already Swadia I have been loyal for decades.” Wolfhardt replied humbly out of gratitude: “I have not inherited the honor of the family, but I will still keep my oath and serve the owner of this caravan, Catherine, as a hedge knight. “
“A Hedge Knight? I should have heard your name, in a tavern in the north.” The knight took off his helmet, revealing a face that looked like a half-blood of Kujit and the West. Nodding at him: “My name is Von Byron, the earl of Swadia, the lord of Amira Fort and Serendil, the custodian of Garmic, you and your team are on my territory , I declare that you have been protected by me, and pay tribute to the heroism you have shown in the battle against the invaders.” Byron said lightly.
“Ah, please forgive my rudeness, your honorable lord, everyone knows your reputation, may your glory live on, health and longevity!”
Wolfhardt was taken aback by the name reported by Byron. He knew that the other party was absolutely extraordinary, but he thought that the other party was a knight under the lord or the famous Baron Fatis. He did not expect Byron. He actually appeared in front of him and led the team to save them.
“You are very lucky, I was going to inspect the territory to the west of me, but I didn’t expect to encounter the team of rats that sneaked into my territory. Now Fatis can breathe a sigh of relief, and I don’t have to worry anymore. The safety of the merchants along the way. Well, my friend, where is the owner of your caravan? I know her name and would like to meet her.”
Wolfhardt didn’t dare to neglect, and immediately pointed his finger to Catherine’s hiding place, and lowered his head and said, “She is the leader of the caravan, my savior, and I swear to guard her until she remarrys, my lord.”
“It is admirable, UU reading www.uukanshu.com Wolfhart, now it is a virtue to repay gratitude and keep the oath.” Byron smiled, perhaps laughing at others, or laughing at himself . But no matter what, he walked over and saw Catherine hurried out from behind the carriage, all covered in mud.
“My lord, I wish you a long life, and there are countless animals and children.” Catherine stammered some auspicious words that the countrymen said to the local squires and low-level nobles, and lowered her head and did not dare to raise her head. She has followed the army many times in her life, but there are only a handful of nobles who are willing to see her, and none of them have given her a good face. Most importantly, they all owed her money, and it never paid off. Byron, the earl, was already the biggest nobleman she had ever seen.
“Don’t be too restrictive, Catherine, right? I’ve heard of you many times, and I’ve wanted to meet you for a long time. If you don’t mind, you can march with our troops. I’ve changed the itinerary a little, and we’ll follow you. Let’s go together, and when Amira arrives, I have to treat you to a good meal.” Byron smiled, he knew very well that no one here would refuse his invitation, and no one would have the courage.
So the merchants began to help the wounded, and the soldiers began to clean the battlefield, and they had to finish their work quickly and then move on to Amira.
