Lords Trying to Survive: Strategizing from a Rundown Yard

Chapter 337: The confrontation begins, the Blue Owl Knights

Those arrows flew in and were blocked by the light curtain thrown by the chain and flying sickle.

Most of the arrows hit the light screen hard and exploded into a ball of blue-white frost magic energy.

Some arrows hit the walls of surrounding villages, leaving holes as big as bowls and causing frost to condense around them.

These arrows all carry some power of frost magic, and are far more powerful than ordinary arrows.

The Blue Owl Cavalry was divided into two groups, each consisting of five squads. At this time, only one of the groups was attacking from the east road.

Just when the church's heavy-armed archers from Raven Tower launched their attack, the Jackdaw and Euphorbia warriors who had set up a battle formation and guarded the road to the village from the east also took action.

They raised their halberds and actually launched an offensive towards the Blue Owl Cavalry in front.

These jackdaw and halberd warriors are all muscular, wearing a set of black chain mail on their upper bodies and leather trousers and boots on their lower bodies. ‘

Wearing a metal half-helmet and a black mask on his face, only two eyes were exposed.

Their eyes were cold, showing no unnecessary emotions. They looked ruthless, and all of them were good at killing.

Each halberd is about two meters long, like an ax blade and a thorn hook. It is very ferocious in shape and looks very powerful and powerful.

The first team of jackdaw and euphorbia warriors chose to take the initiative at this juncture. The six euphorbia warriors advanced side by side, and one team was divided into two rows.

They marched forward quickly and with heavy steps, holding high the halberds in their hands.

"Activate the power of the jackdaw! Kill directly!"

"Get ready to slash and slash.

One of the taller Jackdaw and Euphorbia warriors gave a soft shout, and all the Euphorbia warriors moved forward a little faster.

This person should be the captain of this team.

After his order was issued, the halberds in the hands of all the attacking warriors were instantly covered with a layer of frost.

There was still a cold air coming out of the halberd blade. They quickly crossed a distance of more than ten meters and came to the front of the Blue Owl Knight. They swung the halberd to the extreme with both arms, and then moved toward the blue owl knight in front of them. The owl cavalry struck hard!

"puff!"

"puff!"

Muffled sounds appeared one after another, and these jackdaw and halberd warriors all used chopping skills, and also activated the power of jackdaws. The chopping damage bonus of 1.75 times made these halberds almost unstoppable.

He directly cut open those blue light curtains, and then slashed at the Blue Owl Cavalry with unabated force, cutting a long gap in their armor, causing a huge gap. After being injured, these Blue Owl Cavalrymen were bleeding profusely.

Moreover, each blow of the euphorbia carries 20 points of frost damage, which can freeze the body near the hit site and slow down the enemy's movements.

The horses in the front row were neighing, and the blue owl knights in the front row were also screaming in pain and roaring.

The surrounding terrain is too narrow for the cavalry. This five- to six-meter-wide village road can only allow four to five cavalry to travel in parallel. Not only can they not take advantage of mobility, but they cannot also form local advantages.

On the other hand, the Jackdaw Halberd Warriors, although there were only six warriors attacking side by side, were almost unstoppable when they got up close, especially the halberd, which was swung very fiercely.

Those Blue Owl cavalry were at a disadvantage after just one encounter.

Clustered together in this terrain environment, the horses underneath them could not move easily, and they were like living targets.

On the Raven Tower, the heavy-armed archers continued to shoot, arrows full of magical power flying towards them. Several Blue Owl cavalry in the front row quickly fell under this offensive, including their men and women. The horse's body was chopped into pieces.

Although both sides are third-level soldiers, they have different terrains, different environments, and different combat capabilities.

Four or five Blue Owl cavalry were caught off guard and chopped to pieces by the fierce Jackdaw and Euphorbia warriors.

The cavalry behind raised their arm shields to defend themselves against arrow attacks as much as possible.

While turning his horse around, he was about to leave here. The road at the east end of the village was too narrow. Here, the Calamity Raven Church only needed to use a small number of troops to defend this only way.

Although the main road in the village runs from west to east, the width of the entire road is still different.

The overall situation is wide in the west and narrow in the east. The west is the main direction and passage into the village, and the east is the second. The original flow of people in the two directions is also very different.

The widest part of the mainland in the west, especially near the entrance to the village, can be more than ten or even twenty meters wide, while the road to the east of the village is only five or six meters wide, and the villages on both sides are shorter and more spread out. of compactness.

This resulted in the cavalry not being able to exert much combat effectiveness here.

After losing five cavalrymen, these third-level blue owl cavalry suddenly changed from the rear to the front, turned their horses, and began to evacuate quickly.

The four or five Blue Owl cavalrymen in the rear were still waving chain sickles as they evacuated.

The length of these chain sickles is twelve or thirteen meters, with an iron sickle shaped like a crescent moon at the end.

They swung the chains, maximized the kinetic energy at the end, and threw them towards the jackdaw and halberd warriors who were chasing behind them.

The sharp iron sickle carried the power of the chain and slashed hard at the euphorbia warriors.

"Qiang!"

There was an iron scythe, which reflected the half-moon-like blade light in the air. It directly grazed the battle helmet and slashed off the side of the face. There was a gap in the chainmail of the jackdaw halberd warrior. Although it resisted the blade of the flying scythe, But it didn't block the crescent-shaped tip of the flying sickle.

The tip of the flying scythe penetrated the chain mail directly and hooked the jackdaw halberd warrior's shoulder.

It was like a hook that hooked into his muscles and bones until the tip of the blade was caught by the shoulder blade.

【-62】

A wave of dozens of points of damage appeared, and the flying sickle was nailed to his body with the chain.

But I saw that the euphorbia warrior didn't even blink, and his face was as firm as a rock. This guy either didn't feel pain, or he had strong endurance.

He stretched out one hand and directly grabbed the flying sickle. Just as he was about to pull it out of his shoulder, the Blue Owl Cavalry speeded up on his horse and ran towards the outside of the village.

The chain straightened instantly, and a huge force came, dragging away the Jackdaw and Euphorbia warrior who was hooked by the flying scythe.

There was more than one Jackdaw and Euphorbia warrior caught by the flying scythe.

The four Jackdaw and Euphorbia warriors in the front row were all hooked. They grabbed the chains and put their feet on the ground, trying to prevent them from being dragged away. The two sides struggled so hard that even the stone bricks on the road cracked.

In the end, the dragging power of the war horses was slightly better. The feet of these jackdaw and halberd warriors lost their balance, broke away from the ground, and were dragged away directly.

After losing their borrowing points, even if these euphorbia warriors had 32 points of strength attribute, they could not use it and were directly dragged away by the Blue Owl Cavalry.

This group of Blue Owl cavalry chose to retreat directly after suffering a small loss. The terrain disadvantage was too obvious, and staying here would only increase casualties.

And those warriors from the heresy of the Church did not choose to pursue them. They were outnumbered and pursuing them would not be able to save the four Jackdaw and Euphorbia warriors. Instead, they would be at a disadvantage because they were separated from the favorable terrain and environment.

You must know that the vast and flat grassland outside the village is the largest home ground of the cavalry.

Many of this group of Blue Owl cavalry were hit by one or two arrows.

The area hit by the arrow will freeze quickly, which will not easily cause heavy bleeding, but will significantly reduce the body's flexibility.

Before they left, as a retaliatory counterattack, they also used chains and flying scythes to lure away four jackdaw and euphorbia warriors. Throwing flying scythes was their special skill.

The Blue Owl Knights belong to the local Free Knights, and their strength is far inferior to that of the National Knights. The main combat force is composed of the third-order Blue Owl Cavalry and the fourth-order Blue Owl Heavy Cavalry. The total number of people is only a few thousand, and the active area It is under the jurisdiction of the giant city of Lentax.

The local knights are not directly under the jurisdiction and deployment of the kingdom. They have a cooperative relationship with the kingdom.

You need to abide by local laws and regulations, help manage local security, and obtain bounties and support from local units by eliminating rogue bandits.

There is no fixed logistics, supplies and military pay. It is a third-party knight force that relies on the existence of the kingdom. Equipment, training, and supplies are all handled by themselves.

There are many self-established knights like this among the kingdom-wide forces throughout the continent.

The powerful self-established knights are no less powerful than the standard knights with auditoriums.

The weak self-established knights may not even have unified equipment, let alone form their own cavalry system.

The Blue Owl Knights are of medium size and strength among the self-established knights.

Their signature skill is the chain of flying scythes. In guerrilla warfare, those flying scythes are extremely terrifying.

Soldiers who can directly draw away the opponent can also form a flying sickle formation with each other. Two by two, the flying sickles of both sides are connected in parallel to form a metal blocking rope of more than 20 meters.

Moving at high speed, these blocking ropes are like a scraper, and the infantry along the way will be directly carried away. Even against other cavalry units, the flying sickle is very powerful.

These flying sickles can be thrown out to attack the weak calves of the horses and reduce their mobility. This move is very effective against cavalry.

Once the cavalry's mobility is reduced, its strength will also be reduced.

In addition, those flying sickles can also be swung at high speed to emit a blue light curtain to resist long-range attacks and damage.

The Blue Owl Cavalry of this squadron happened to be active near Bosbon recently. As soon as they received the request for assistance from the Dragon Eagle Knights, they rushed over immediately.

Assisting the kingdom's forces in eradicating these church heretics, or saving villages and exterminating bandits can result in generous rewards, ranging from a few thousand dinars to tens of thousands of dinars, depending on the difficulty of the task.

At this time, another group of Blue Owl cavalry was advancing along the edge of the village from the northeast direction of the village, looking for a passable path into the village.

This group of Blue Owl Cavalry chose to return the same way and left Odo Village from the entrance to the east of Odo Village, dragging four Jackdaw and Euphorbia warriors behind them.

They kept dragging each other like this. After leaving the village, they opened a little distance, and then circled from east to west.

The four Jackdaw Euphorbia were forcefully dragged into close contact with the earth.

Soil crumbs, grass residue, and gravel were scattered everywhere.

It left four obvious drag marks on the soft grass, just like a human plow.

The ground they were dragged across was not only plowed down, but also all turned dark red.

These are all the blood flowing from their bodies. There is still a difference between chainmail and full-face armor.

The gravel entered the chain armor from the gaps, and then continued to rub against the skin as it was dragged, causing various scratches and abrasions.

Their health points are constantly losing as a result.

However, the rate of loss is not fast. With their high health points of 545 points and upper body armor value of 28 points, they will not be dragged to death so quickly.

But if they can't find a way to break free, the only thing waiting for them is to be dragged to death.

These jackdaw and euphorbia warriors were indeed men. Even in such a situation, they did not scream or cry out in pain. They just grabbed the euphorbia in their hands.

Trying to find an opportunity to insert it into the earth to stop the Blue Owl Cavalry from dragging it.

But there has never been a suitable opportunity. It seems that the situation is very critical. If it continues like this, these jackdaw and halberd warriors may not be able to escape in the end.

To the west of Odo Village, with the peripheral traps eliminated, the crusade army has also launched a frontal offensive.

One after another, the trebuchet shells fell on the battle formation composed of jackdaw and euphorbia warriors.

"Boom!"

Purple energy escaped everywhere with the explosion, and those positional crossbows also fired at the Raven Tower in the center of the preparation village.

It caused hundreds of points of damage to the Jackdaw and Euphorbia warriors within the range and the surrounding villages.

These purple trebuchet shells have a damage bonus to various energy shields, but have no additional bonus to ordinary warriors and various buildings.

Even so, the damage value is still not low.

The arm-thick crossbow arrows can span a distance of two to three kilometers, ruthlessly tearing apart the wooden walls and causing damage to the mithril ground inside which is engraved with magic runes.

It caused serious damage to the building's solidity value of the entire Raven Tower.

Some thick crossbow bolts even penetrated the wall and hit hard the church's heavy-armed shooters stationed in the tower, knocking out a big hole in the wall along with the people.

There is nothing special about these positional crossbows when dealing with the Raven Dome, but once they deal with these buildings, they can display their true abilities.

This kind of positional crossbow has an extra damage bonus for building damage. Kunir's mentality is now very peaceful, and he has regained the composure he should have as a commander.

Those lord forces wanted to watch the show on the side, but Kunir asked them to take the lead! \u003c/div\u003e
