The King of Knights

On the city wall, many soldiers were startled by this sudden appearance of the cavalry, but some of them did not panic. St. George looked at everything in front of him, his eyes extremely calm.

“Wang’s prediction is really accurate. There really is a problem here. The inner city is in place! St. George gave orders to the soldiers behind him. At the same time, behind the gate of the city wall, you can see that it has been arranged into a concave position.

Reinforced iron fences were erected around the perimeter, and six crossbows were aimed at the gate, while archers were lined up on the high walls around them, and the magician troops were already in position. The entire inner city is like a huge trap waiting for the enemy.

Of course, this arrangement will definitely not be able to withstand the onslaught of tens of thousands of people, but it is enough to deal with the opponent’s elite knights.

“Obey!”

The French knights had been shot by many bows and crossbows before approaching the city walls, and many fell off their horses and disappeared into the chaos, but these attacks did not slow down the cavalry unit in the slightest. They braved a rain of arrows and rushed headlong towards the gate.

For them, there is only one chance, and if they fail, there is no second time. At the same time that the plan was carried out here, the French army on the edge of the distant forest also began to move, and they came out of the forest illusion and prepared to attack with all their might.

Lothar left a few hundred men to guard a hundred sorcerer troops tired from illusion, and officially advanced with the main force of the whole army. In the sky, more than two hundred bipedal wyvern legions flew into the sky at the same time, with five people on the back of each wyvern. They are legendary dragon knights, who together with the wyvern became weapons of war.

“What’s going on! Why did the Wyvern Legion only appear halfway? Lothar looked at Anses beside him.

“His Royal Highness said that with the marshal’s strategy, half of the wyvern is enough. He also said that others needed to stay behind the army to avoid being raided. Anseth, who had just returned, also darkened his face.

“! The royal capital of Britain has entered the city, how can there be a surprise attack, or run behind us! Lothar was so angry that he burst into foul language.

“Marshal! I think…”

“I know what he’s thinking. I want us to fight to the death first, and he is good to show up at the critical time to win the credit. This bastard does not care about the lives or deaths of others for his own merit. “Lothar, as a battlefield general, naturally understands this prince’s thoughts.

Wait a minute, the forward troops will definitely encounter desperate resistance. The prince wanted to wait until the two sides were extremely tired before he went out to grab the head.

“Marshal, we can’t stop now, even without the entire Wyvern Legion, we can’t stop.”

“I know. Accelerate forward! ”

The French army began to move, but part of the army did not follow them and stayed.

In the center of the military formation was where the prince was, and inside the tent, a young male noble general was looking at the prince carefully and said hesitantly.

“Your Royal Highness, is it really okay for us to do this? I think”

“Tell me, who’s here now, Roman!” The prince glanced at the nobleman grimly.

“Naturally it’s you, His Royal Highness.”

“Then you shut up for me, here I say anything, everything is up to me.” I don’t want you to feel, I want me to feel, got it? ”

“Understood, understood!” The nobleman wiped the sweat from his forehead and said nothing more.

On the plain in front of the Dragon Scale Fortress, Lucifer and Ziegfei had already solved these hundreds of ordinary knights, and the people on the flying dragon just now directly chose to slip away after seeing that the situation was not good, which also made them a lot easier.

After the battle, they did not have much time to sigh, because they had already discovered that the knights in the distance had already rushed the gate of the fortress.

“It’s a trap! No wonder they only sent such a small number of troops to hunt me down. Sorry, everyone. A guilty expression appeared on Zigfried’s face.

“That’s right, exactly the trap! General Siegfried, you still have the ability to fight. Lucifer looked at the fortress in the distance and didn’t worry too much.

“Yes! Ask the king to give orders. ”

“Knights, blow the trumpet, we will charge again from behind them.”

“Obey!”

All the knights turned their horses’ heads and they rushed back towards the fortress. The battle just now caused them to lose dozens of people, and the overall combat strength is still there. Not without the ability to rush back.

Moreover, I don’t know if it was an illusion, Artoria found that with their current position, it was not so much that the French knights were storming the fortress, but that they were exposing their rear to their swords. She subconsciously glanced at Lucifer, who was smiling.

Is this also within your plans, master?

Putting away the doubts in her heart, she followed Lucifer’s figure and once again launched a charge against the enemy army.

Inside the fortress, St. George also discovered the army of France on the distant horizon. He mentally estimated the time of arrival while looking at what was happening in the inner city.

Below is already a purgatory-like scenery, countless corpses piled up on the avenue, blood flowing wantonly, they seem to be a natural barrier blocking the path of the knights behind, and when the knights behind roughly clean it up, their corpses will become part of the barrier.

“If it were normal, maybe we wouldn’t have had time to react.” Not to mention the mobilization of so many troops. St. George fell into thought.

In normal circumstances, the main forces of the defenders of the city are concentrated on the wall, and because the gate is there, unless you see that the gate is about to be broken, you will not increase the number of troops, let alone transfer heavy troops to set traps like this.

He knew very well that he had to deal with these knights quickly. Then close the door, and the French plan will be completely finished.

Outside the city gates, the troops led by Lucifer had already touched the rear of the French knights, and they used Lucifer as the tip of their swords, if a sharp sword cut through the French knights.

Knights kept falling under their swords, and they were getting closer and closer to the gate. And in the distance behind them, a large number of French knights were also rushing to the fortress with all their might. Now they are all in a race against time.

Seeing Lucifer approaching the opening they had cut, St. George once again gave orders to the soldiers behind him.

“Stop attacking! The king is coming back! Get ready to close the gates! ”

The soldiers of the inner city put away their bows and crossbows, and they began to move towards the wall one after another, and the soldiers on the ground also pushed away the fence next to them to prepare for Lucifer’s return.

Lucifer led the knights to kill the enemy all the way, and finally returned to the city walls, and when the knights were fully returned, there were still a large number of unfinished enemy troops behind them. These people are desperately charging towards the city gates.

“Close!”

As soon as St. George’s words were finished, the voice of the defenders of the city was heard not far away.

“No, Lord Marshal, the enemy below has forcibly jammed the gate with his body. Can’t close. ”

“What!”
