Tang Qi Tan

Chapter 387

Facing the approaching free army heritage knights, those generals of the Holy Kingdom who were in a panic also drew their swords hastily, and gathered under the banner of the golden lion on the red background to make a gesture of confrontation.More than a dozen heavy armored knights wearing brocade robes, holding silk-sashed ceremonial spears and halberds stood up.

However, it was the various weapon accessories equipped on the inheritance knights who were the first to attack them.I saw a heritage knight nicknamed "Winter Bear" twirling a short-barreled revolver with a clanging sound, and suddenly shot out a large amount of lead and iron sand, approaching and knocking down a piece of it.

And another inheritance knight nicknamed "Black Rock", with the sound of gray smoke colliding between the stretching and contracting arms, ejected small gunpowder balls; Among the officers and non-commissioned officers who rushed to fight, the bang knocked some of them down.

There are also a few thin and nimble inheritance knights, who are spinning and firing with all their strength while running, with special runner crossbows on their arms; almost like a buzzing swarm of bees, they shoot relatively dense arrows; The support behind those heavy armored knights was shot down one after another.

Then the other inheritance knights wielded sticks, maces, long-handled axes, large swords, and wide-mouthed knives, and rushed into the line of these heavily armored knights who were staggered and exposed gaps and flaws.It was like knocking on an iron can together with each other, several people surrounded one.

One of them held a shield close to his body to block the opponent's attack with all his strength, and the other group of people transferred to attack with a tacit division of labor. Contain, and put them down one by one in a blink of an eye.

Therefore, in just a few breaths of meeting each other; these heavily armored knights who were fighting with instrument spears and halberds had already been hit by the double package of long-distance bombardment and close-combat, and the defense line collapsed.There were only a few fighters who fought stubbornly, and the generals under the flag were killed and injured.

Seeing that Duval, who took the lead, was about to fight against the banner of the golden lion on a red background; and the knights who held the banner and several guards also pulled out their stabbing swords, straight swords, and sabers in despair; The generals who were watching and commanding under the flag also retreated surrounded by left and right.

Suddenly, from the crowd of civil servants, entourages, and retinues who had fled, a small group of armored warriors wearing chain mail and holding maces and iron clubs stood out; their faces full of determination and determination blocked his way .Duval was taken aback when he saw this, and quickly raised the stick.

"Sinner! Repent..." I saw a hemp-robed monk with a shaved headband in the middle, and suddenly shouted to the inheritance knights rushing forward: in an instant, there seemed to be invisible ripples passing by, making Duval's The movement paused for a moment, while the other inheritance knights also slowed down.

However, in Jiang Tian's field of vision, he received a prompt: "Suspected mental/sound wave compound attack, yes/whether to counter it?" Jiang Tian said "Yes" silently.The next moment, under the eyes of everyone, he just took a look at the monk, and the monk suddenly stiffened and collapsed with bleeding from his mouth and nose.

"Victory belongs to us!" Duval, who had recovered, shouted loudly: but he was even more certain in his heart that this lord must be a saint who walked the world.Therefore, it was able to avoid any abnormal harm and influence, but let the other party suffer the punishment from somewhere.

"Devils!" The iron gauntlet turned over with punches one by one, and fell to the ground unconscious...

A moment later, surrounded by a group of inheritance knights who had killed the entire camp, Jiang Tian also came to rush up the hillside, but found that there was no way to escape; but he could only fight in the corner among the rocks until the end, with gray beard and pale face. In front of Fangzheng, the general of the Holy Kingdom Army wearing a silver crown and helmet.

"Order, surrender! You can also reduce some deaths and killings." Jiang Tian said slowly: "Even if it is a hostile position as an invasion of the kingdom, at least I can give you a relatively decent treatment based on the morality of knights..."

"Don't even think about taking away my reputation and glory!" However, the enemy general turned his head towards him, and under the cover of the last servant who was covered in blood and had a broken arm, he slashed across with a knife without hesitation. His own throat; however, it was Jiang Tianfei's clapping palm that moved faster than him.

Hearing the bang, he was whipped on the stone wall by a company man wearing a helmet, and immediately passed out with his eyes turned white.Then Jiang Tian clapped his hands to the others and said, "Since he is stubborn, let's change another prisoner..."

In the end, with the golden lion banner on a red background adorned with tassels and many gold and silver ornaments, and the sub-group cavalry and company flags accompanied by stars and moons; amidst the incredible expressions and uproar on the battlefield, one after another It suddenly fell down and became Duval and others after it was captured;

The fighting spirit of the Holy Kingdom army fighting head-on also melted away like ice and snow under the scorching sun.Although, compared to the panic and collapsed soldiers, some knights bravely turned around and wanted to regain their glory; but how could the free army behind them make them do so?
And as these knights who are the backbone of the army, driven by anger, anxiety, and anxiety, they desperately left the battle one after another; The soldiers of the Holy Kingdom abandoned their weapons and surrendered.

However, as these groups of knights charged in the opposite direction, knocking and overturning their own soldiers; by the time they finally reached the rear camp, most of the fighting was basically over.After repeated tossing and turning, they were at the end of their strength, and they were facing Duval and others who were at their leisure.

Therefore, this seemingly tragic and decisive final charge ended quickly almost after a few encounters.After dozens of people were killed or injured, more than 300 armored knights became fresh prisoners. This is because Duval and others did not kill them.

There are more than 20 of them, who obviously belong to the heavy armor knights who have exploded with blood power; under Duval's leadership and personally entertaining, they were suppressed by men on top of men; they temporarily twisted their hands and feet to prevent them from remaining impulsive And instinct, further hurting myself...

But Jiang Tian, ​​who was looking at all this, felt a little regretful and regretful; because his dimensional bubble ability could not carry living things.Otherwise, as long as there are a few hundred horses... no, even if there are only a hundred horses, they can easily follow and kill for a long distance.

On the other hand, it is because the capacity of the dimensional bubble is not endless after all.At present, it only carries equipment and equipment of about a dozen full companies, plus some simple auxiliary equipment and rations.This time another part of the space was taken up to carry the prefab and the grid wall.

Therefore, only ten of the most elite companies can be led to participate in the battle.In the second battle, the [-] Freedom Army who made a roundabout attack and ambushed, in the unnamed valley at the junction of the two countries, smashed the Holy Kingdom, a knight order and five sub-regiments with [-] troops; killed [-] enemies and captured nearly [-], and the rest were defeated. escape.

Even so, among the army that came to the aid of the Holy Kingdom this time, almost all the middle and high-level people with the most value and status became captives of the Free Army.Whether it is used for ransom in exchange for the corresponding identity, or used as a bargaining chip in political transactions and diplomatic negotiations, they all have considerable weight.

The most valuable thing among the spoils of war, apart from the golden lion flag with a long history, which is said to be dated back to the founding of the Holy Kingdom and compared to the spiritual symbol of Aquitaine; there are also the names of the various knight orders, A large number of knight mounts and spare horses are carried.

That is the famous Andalusian horse, and it is also one of the oldest and purest horse breeds in the world.In addition, there are hundreds of them, apparently from the south of the Iberian Peninsula, the native descendants of Arabian horses brought by the Saracens conquerors in the early years-the Moorish horses.

With at least 2000 horses, they were abandoned in the valley and had nowhere to escape; but the saddled horses were used as seeds and basic disks for breeding.The cavalry of the Free Army is no longer a large platter of various sources; it can be considered to upgrade from light cavalry to heavy cavalry with strong and sharp.

However, Jiang Tian feels that these victories are not enough, and he can continue to work hard.Immediately afterwards, he said to Duval, Raphael and others who were taking turns to report on the results of the battle and the capture: "Next, are you interested in becoming knights of the Holy Kingdom for a while?"

So on the second day, a "reinforcement army" from the Holy Kingdom slowly walked into the gate of the city fortress that couldn't wait to open amidst the eager eyes on the wall and the cheers of the fleeing nobles in the city.Then, he took over the defense of the city wall with an unquestionable attitude.

Even so, no one doubted or noticed the inconsistency of the support army; even their golden lion-pattern burqas didn't seem to fit so well; there were some scuffs and scars on the weapons and armor; Over stains and mud spots...

Because, the large force of the Free Army is on the other side of the fortress city; they have set up coalition camps and fortifications several miles wide, making a ready-to-go assault posture.Therefore, when the upper echelon of the Tomahawk Knights in the inner castle sent people to greet them, the support army had already taken over to the front door.

Only then did someone seem to notice something was wrong.But facing the "Knight of the Holy Kingdom" who rushed to the top of the city and put a sword on his neck; the local militia garrison officer still tried his best to explain that he had not neglected his duty or slack since he surrendered.

And the adjutant of the Tomahawk Knights, who was ordered to meet him, finally realized that there were not many members of the regiment he knew among the domestic reinforcements; and then he was held hostage.They could only watch helplessly as these reinforcements forcibly opened the city gates in the name of taking the initiative to fight.

Then, amidst his extremely desperate and horrified eyes, the flag of the Liberation Army with a blue background and a smiling face with a bright sun was raised one after another on the top of the city.
