The Lion King of Middenland, Warhammer

Immediately behind the golden lion came the figures of the ravens, knights in black armor with their yew longbows slung across their backs.Their armor is much the same as that of Maul's Guardians, except that the helmets are decorated with silver raven wings.They are the only knightly order in the empire to use bows and arrows, and they are also the pride of the Principality of Stillland.In the Snowfield Battle not long ago, thirty Raven Knights under the command of Baron Fischer had dealt a heavy blow to the Kugans, so Hyde was no stranger to them.However, the troops being reviewed today are not the subordinates of Baron Fischer, but the main force of the Elector of Stillland and the Great Abbey of More.

The luster of turquoise shone on the dark blue armor, and their master was a knight with a trident.These riders marching under the banner of the Mermaid Army are the elite of Nordland, the sea country, and they are called the sons of Manann with their armor decorated with golden scales and turquoise.Their heads are studded with shark fins, giving these majestic steeds a monster-like appearance.

The Sons of Manann are the only knights in the empire who are good at amphibious warfare. Their men and horses are good at swimming, and their weapons and armor are protected by water magic.In this great holy war, these believers of the Sea God contributed three squadrons, which seemed to be the least of the large knights, but this was not because of the poverty or infidelity of the Principality of Nordland, but because of a The reason why the Nordland army was attacked by the dark elves at the port where it assembled a year and a half ago.In that battle, the Principality of Nordland lost more than half of their knights, so now they can only use this amount of troops.

Waves of cavalry marched towards the camp. Behind the larger knights were queues of independent knights and mercenary cavalry, including the Salamander Knights, the Horned Eagle Knights, the Purple Rock Knights, and others. Knights and wild mercenaries.These independent small knights have very few troops, and most of them are no more than one or one and a half cavalry squadrons, and some even rely on several knights to form a squadron array.The mercenaries have more troops, but most of them will not exceed the size of two cavalry squadrons. The mercenaries who lick their blood on the borders of the empire are an indispensable part of the empire's military machinery. It also has a solemn position.

"The elite of the imperial court is about to appear, and the important moment is coming. Your Highness, do you still remember what I said?"

Old Loren's low voice came from beside his ears, reminding Hyde to get ready.The white-haired old man squinted his eyes into the distance, and Hyde could see the excited light in his vision.

"I understand, Lord Loren."

Hyde smiled and clenched the reins in his hand.He understands what old Loren entrusted, and these days he has been trying to make up for the etiquette of the royal court and the etiquette of knights.It is an important matter to be awarded the sword by the crown prince in the camp of the Great Holy War, and this issue cannot be neglected in the slightest.However, in fact, old Loren's reminder seems a bit redundant, because the more violent vibration of the ground and the huge black shadow in the distance have already explained everything.

"All soldiers, salute the sacred royal court!" [

Following an old and solemn voice and the horn that accompanied the sound, the remaining troops who lined up in front of the camp raised their swords neatly.The royal army appeared after the allied armies of the principalities, their red and white eagle banners and white armors were like a shining river.Dozens of land battleships like moving castles are slowly advancing in the center of the queue, and the black smoke of the steam dyes the tarpaulin of the sails into mottled colors.

"Immortal descendant of Holy Sigma, the most glorious sword of mankind, ruler of the Old Continent, master of the 3000 yuan territory, undefeated commander of the Royal Army and Royal Navy, the only lord of the ancient and noble electors, the earth is invincible Shaking pillars --- the sacred and ancient imperial court, the immortal Rickland family, the supreme throne..."

Hyde silently recited these adjectives to Rick's royal court in his heart. The many titles made him a little confused, and he suddenly became a little nervous.In the official ceremony, there were about thirty words of praise for the imperial court, and this did not include the titles of the ten elector duchies and 35 autonomous duchies of different sizes and independent territories.In fact, Old Loren could only remember half of these things, but Fleur remembered them very clearly and carried the booklet with her.She taught Hyde to recite a lot last night, but it seems that this young man of God has not fully mastered it yet.

"Forget it, anyway, I was not the one who spoke at the ceremony, and I only need to say a few words to the Crown Prince. What do I remember so many things for? Anyway, as long as I follow the etiquette in my actions, it will be fine! "

After a moment of self-comfort, Hyde regained his composure.The rolling army was getting closer and closer, and the giant ship of the land battleship made a thunderous sound on the snowfield. This moment was spectacular, and it was almost indescribable in words.The great imperial court, the master of the Sigmar Empire finally unfolded his majestic army. The war machines and war warriors will cast the wrath of the emperor on this snowy northern kingdom.

Countless fine-crafted armor reflects the brilliance of the sun, and the dense halberds and muskets are like a dead forest.The infantrymen of the imperial court wore silver heavy armor inlaid with red edges, advancing like a wall of steel. In fact, not only all the halberd soldiers, spearmen, and swordsmen were wearing full-body armor, but even the musketeers and crossbowmen were also wearing full-body armor. They all wear iron helmets, breastplates, armguards, and shoulder armor.Every piece of armor and weapon shines with the coat of arms of the Holy Cross of Sigmar and the wings of the black eagle, with the breath of magical protection.Sophisticated equipment is the hallmark of Rick's royal court, and this magnificent scene eclipsed the elector's army.

Columns of cavalry were deployed on the two wings of the infantry phalanx, and the squadron of forty Rick knights was like a river of steel that could not be seen at the end.Their standard spears are uniformly red, with a small white flag shining at the end, and a green olive leaf emblem is worn on the silver helmet, and red and white feathers flutter proudly on the top of the helmet.Red and white are the colors of the Rickland family, and the olive leaf wreath and Sigma Sacred Skull are the royal coat of arms. These combination become the decoration of the Rick Royal Knights.These rigorous knights are the most disciplined cavalry in the entire empire. For hundreds of years, their neat mountain charges have crushed countless enemies of the empire.

Behind the Rick knights was a line of pistol cavalry, they also wore thick full-body heavy armor, and some even wore armor for both men and horses, like heavily armored knights carrying muskets.The elite of these Musketeers carried carbine on their backs, two long-barreled pistols on their waists, seven-foot short spears for charging on the saddles, the reins in one hand, and an armor-piercing mace in the other. To the teeth of the war machine.Heavy Armored Musketeers are the unique unit of the main force of Rick's Royal Court. In addition to their powerful firepower, their charge is no less than that of ordinary knights when necessary.

The light four-wheeled artillery carriage advanced at high speed under the pull of six shaft horses. They were the proud cavalry artillery of the imperial court.Seiko’s cannon carriages and vigorous horses allow the three-pound Viper cannon and the nine-pound curved cannon to keep up with the speed of the cavalry, maneuver at high speed, quickly occupy the position, and pour lightning-like artillery fire on the enemy. This is the purpose of the cavalry artillery!Enemies that cannot be defeated by the cavalry's lightning charge are resolved by their lead, and the artillery fire strengthened by metal and fire magic is the nemesis of all dense formations.In order to defend against the enemy's bows and arrows at close range, the cavalry artillerymen wore simplified full-body armor like pistol cavalry, helmets with long brims, and small flags embroidered with black eagles and cannons fluttered around them.

Huge land ships slowly advance like moving fortresses. Their bronze-colored sides are full of traces of flames, and exquisite military flags make the sound of wind on the ship towers and masts. Thick white smoke flows from the black chimneys. pop up.These one-hundred-foot-long warships as high as three-story buildings are the crystallization of technology from the royal court and the United Kingdom of dwarves. Steam and magic drive their eight giant wheels that are more than ten feet high, and their cannons and muskets are filled. layer deck.The cap of each warship is adorned with graceful bronze mermaid heads, and when necessary, they will also spew fire that incinerates the enemy.

"Is this a land ship? The equipment of the imperial army is really extraordinary!"

Hyde stared intently at this huge war machine, the strong vibration and the smell of smoke impacted his heart.In fact, from the beginning of the war against the demon lord Tamerlane to this day, these powerful land ships have been the pride of the empire. Their huge bodies can crush the army of Chaos, and their blazing rage can shatter the armor of demons. , The eighteen land ships are like rows of invincible fortresses, and their majestic figures are like the will of the empire.

"Look, this is the land ship I told you about! Pay attention! Because it is also made by Tyrell! Worship?"

A restless voice suddenly interrupted Hyde's thinking. It was the voice of his savage cousin Catherine.At some point, the beautiful red-haired princess rode her horse and slipped behind Hyde, lightly knocked on the armor of the young man of God, and then smiled and winked at the slightly surprised Hyde.
