King: Start with tauren plowing

Chapter 83 The Beginning of the Battle of Sunset Fortress

"Knight Commander Claude Drey, look ahead, there is a centaur soldier." A knight from the Silver Fox family ran back to report.

Claude fixed his eyes and saw that there was indeed a group of centaur soldiers in the distance, the number was no more than 100.Just after leaving the Sunset Fortress, they encountered the Centaur Corps. Could it be that there are orc tribes who want to invade the Sunset Fortress in the south?
Claude has resisted several orc invasions to the south, and he also knows the centaur tribe's consistent fighting style. He first sent centaur soldiers to investigate the news. Once they found a weak point in their defense line, the brigade of centaurs would follow closely behind. Attack this weak point.

"Tell the soldiers to prepare for the battle." Claude ordered, this time is also a chance to practice, just to let the newly joined knights of the Knights see the blood, increase their courage, these serfs, civilians The retinue knights are timid and physically weak, and they are afraid of orcs when they see them.

So the knights of the Silver Fox family quickly put on alert, especially the wandering knights and feudal knights. Their military and physical qualities are excellent. They quickly put on the armor on the pack horses, took out their longbows, arrows, Bow and nock, ready to shoot.

However, the knight commander just put them on guard and didn't let them attack, so these wandering knights and feudal knights just put their hands on the bowstring lightly to prevent them from accidentally shooting arrows.The retinue knights who had just joined the knight order did not have this kind of quality. When they saw the orcs, they began to panic.

Many of these retinue knights have joined the serf regiment of the Silver Fox family, and they all have the experience of being defeated by orcs. When they didn't win by themselves and overturned their own conclusions, they had already imagined the orcs in their hearts. A formidable foe, one that could easily kill them.

But fortunately, the centaur regiment was hundreds of meters away, even if a few knights who followed accidentally shot their arrows by mistake, they would not touch the centaur at all.

……

"Lord Likas, look, the Knights of the Silver Fox Family have not moved. They are not here to attack us." Half of the people said loudly. Immediately go up to fight, or turn around and retreat, but now the two sides are just on guard, not ready to attack.

The knights of the Silver Fox family really didn't take the initiative to attack, which made Likas start to ponder: Did I guess wrong just now, we still have a chance to annex the Fang tribe after sending the letter.

In this case, he would have to re-evaluate Brother Peter's position beside the priest. There are many guards around the priest. Maybe Peter's brother is just a fringe member.

While thinking, Likas watched as the centaur he sent approached the group of human knights on the opposite side.

Peter felt uneasy, because Likas had been scanning Peter suspiciously back and forth, and this familiar uneasiness finally woke Peter up.

The ease of these days has almost made him forget the truth of the matter. He does not have a big brother who is guarding the priest, and even he himself is not a member of the Flying Claw tribe.

"Be careful what you say in the future." Peter secretly warned himself in his heart.

Just as the centaur they sent approached the group of human knights on the opposite side, an arrow suddenly flew out of the human knights.

This arrow didn't seal the throat with one arrow, nor did it hit the vital point, it just flew past the horse's belly from the side.

But this arrow was like stabbing a hornet's nest, and then more than a dozen arrows were shot out.

Without even thinking about it, the centaur turned its head, turned around, and ran wildly, shouting loudly: "Master Likas, they are going to kill me."

This sudden situation not only confused the centaur, but also the knights of the Silver Fox family.

Knight Commander Claude Drey shouted angrily: "Who did it, who shot the arrow."

No one said a word for a while, and after a while, someone whispered: "Master Knight Commander, when I softened my hand just now, the arrow shot out."

"Master Knight, so do I."

"Master Knight Commander, I saw someone shooting an arrow, and my hand softened..."

Then more than a dozen people stood up and spoke.

"A bunch of trash." Knight Commander Claude Drey muttered in a low voice, but since all the shots were shot, the only thing we could do was go to war.

Anyway, when encountering orcs on the Korimia prairie, the only way is to conquer them.

Then Claude Drey ordered the knights to attack quickly. The feudal knights and wandering knights who were on alert reacted quickly, clamped the horse's belly, waved the whip, and rushed towards the centaur.

After a short period of confusion and adjustment, the subordinate knights also reacted, and rushed out with the wandering knights and fiefdom knights.

When the knights of the Silver Fox family charged, they put their two ends in front and the middle in the back, shaped like a crescent moon, as if they wanted to surround the centaur soldier in front of them.

Likas immediately ordered: "Retreat, retreat quickly."

The centaur kicked up its hooves and ran like a torrent. At this time, a centaur was brave and galloped forward. When he ran forward, he suddenly turned around, and the arrow in his hand flew out of the string, and then the arrow hit a fully armed knight. There was a crisp sound of "clang" on his body.

There were centaurs who didn't care about anything and just rushed forward with their heads sullen, such as Peter, such as Henlet, such as their captain Sambu.

More than 100 centaurs fought more than 500 human knights. Likas didn't even have the mood to resist. He ordered his cronies to retreat quickly. As for the centaurs who had just joined, he didn't care about it. After all, someone needs to break the rear.

Then a centaur was overtaken by the human cavalry behind him, and a human knight drew out his cavalry spear and stabbed out suddenly. With the help of the astonishing speed of the horse, the two-meter-tall centaur stabbed his heart every time.

There are also human knights, who drew out the short spears behind their backs, clamped their legs around the horse's belly, and threw the spears in their hands directly. The galloping spears hit a running centaur, and the huge impact directly nailed the centaur. die on the ground.

It is difficult to make an exact conclusion about the running speed of centaur and the running speed of war horse.

For example, now, the fastest runners are undoubtedly the centaurs like Peter and Likas. They have superior physical fitness, good endurance, and they can run very fast without carrying weight.

The second is the war horses carefully selected by the feudal knights and wandering knights. Although these war horses carry heavy loads and their endurance is not as good as that of centaurs, they are very explosive.

The second is the general centaurs. These centaurs are in the middle and lower ranks of the tribe. Generally, they don’t have enough to eat. Their speed is slower.

The second most important are the inferior horses of the retinue knights. These inferior horses run slowly, and with the weight on them, they are the last one.
