Glory Riding and Cutting

At this time outside the city, the noble knights knew that they were late when they saw that the flags flying on the city wall had been replaced with flags they had never seen before. At this point they are gathering to discuss what to do next.

"What should I do? Sneko should be in danger, but didn't it mean that it was Count Fernando who attacked him? Lavin changed his family crest?"

"Your news is too outdated. According to rumors, LaVine's second son, Rodrite, has successfully rebelled. The current Earl Fernando is Rodrite, and it should be his changed flag."

"Rodrite, I remember that guy, he was an excellent knight, but isn't he dead?"

"Okay, don't discuss these meaningless things. There are very few guards on the city wall. Their main force may have retreated. Of course, this may also be a trap. They want to attract us to take the bait. What do you think should be done? Attack or Retreat?" said a more prestigious knight.

"Let's retreat, Eagle's Cave City is easy to defend and difficult to attack. Since these guys can take this city so quickly, their strength is obviously not weak. We don't need to spend our strength on this, and our troops are not elite, and the morale of these farmers is not good either. , may not be able to attack, just arrange a messenger to confirm Sneko's life and death." The knight on his left responded

"Reconsideration!"

"I agree!"

Soon everyone finished expressing their opinions. Although the lord ordered them to support Sneko, no one is willing to go up and work hard in this situation. After all, there is no benefit.

After the discussion, a rider was ordered to run under the city wall holding a flag representing negotiations, and then shouted loudly:

"How is the situation of Sir Sneko? According to the provisions of the noble code, our army has the right to demand the redemption of prisoners!"

"I'm afraid you will be disappointed. Sir Sneko led the army to guard the city wall himself, and he has died heroically. This city now belongs to Earl Rodritte!"

After the riders ran back to their positions to report, the group of knights obviously didn't believe this statement. Would that fat man Sneko fight on the city wall himself? Can his belly be put on armor? This is obviously the other party's excuse.

But now that Sneko is dead, these nobles have no idea of ​​attacking. If their lord is here, maybe they will have some thoughts about this city and territory that has lost its lord, but these knights are very aware of their weight. , Even if they win the city, it will not be their turn to take Sneko's place.

"Retreat, go back and report the truth. How to deal with that Rodrite who wants to take advantage of the mess is the business of the second prince and the lords. Now that Sneko is dead, our work is over." After finishing speaking, the name The knight turned his horse's head and led his attendants and the militiamen he brought back and started to walk back.

The other knights also shook their heads and led others to follow. Aldridge on the city wall saw their actions and immediately started walking down the city wall, communicating with Mathias through the system while walking.

"I can just take the cavalry out of the city to pursue. Matthias and I will attack from both sides. The group of militias should be dispersed soon. As long as those knights die, the rest of the stragglers will not be able to escape." It's important. You stay here and continue to defend the city, and avoid turning the tiger away from the mountain." After Aldridge said to Meriuses beside him, he turned over and rode his mixed-breed nightmare horse named Black Thunder.

The other cavalry also quickly assembled. Aldridge brought a total of about 500 cavalry on this trip, a mixture of light and heavy cavalry, and heavy cavalry accounted for more. Two eclipse knights serve as the tip of the entire formation.

The city gate opened slowly, and Aldridge was the first to rush out of the city gate with his horse in his belly. Before the noble coalition troops had gone far, they heard the heavy hooves of "rumbling!" coming from behind them. The knights knew it was a large-scale cavalry as soon as they heard it. They suddenly looked aside, and began to command:

"The infantry turned around and put in formation! Put up your spears and place them diagonally upwards, and the people in the back put their shields against the backs of the people in front. The formation should be denser, and the movements should be quick. The cavalry gather on the rear flanks, ready to fight!"

The militiamen with little military quality suddenly started to act in a panic. Before the formation was fully set up, the cavalry team headed by Aldridge had already appeared in sight.

The heavily armored knights and horses galloped rapidly, and soon they were within a few hundred meters of the noble coalition army. Aldridge issued an order:

"Blindfolded! The rangers disperse, and the heavy cavalry follow me in again! Cut through them!"

The distance of a few hundred meters was fleeting, "Bang! Kacha! Ah!" This was the sound of the horse hitting the man and the shield, the lance and spear shattered and the human screaming.

Aldridge's arm was as steady as Mount Tai, and his cavalry stabbed stably into the chest of the first soldier, and then passed through him without shaking and continued to stab into the chest of the soldiers behind him, piercing five or six people in a row before Aldridge lost his cavalry. Gun untied the big sword on his back and began to slash around.

The heavy cavalry led by Aldridge wore heavy plate armor all over their bodies. Even the horses under their crotches had solid and thick breastplates on their chests. I felt some stinging pain, but I couldn't pierce the chest armor at all to cause damage. Most of them were broken by the huge impact force of the horse along with the arm of the militiaman holding the spear, and then the whole person was pierced on the lance.

Only a small number of cavalrymen accidentally tripped over or injured their legs during the first contact, and the horses fell and flew out or were crushed below.

The heavy cavalry can cause too much damage to such almost unarmored infantry on this flat terrain, and the battle damage ratio of the two sides is nearly 100 to 1.

Matthias, who was standing in the woods not far away with the lions and the black warriors and observed the situation with spells, felt that he was not needed at all, but he finally sent the lions out because Aldrie Qi told him that it would be best to wipe out those noble knights.

The noble knights behind the infantry saw that the heavy cavalry rushed to the center of the formation almost instantly, and the light cavalry continued to surround and kill the militiamen with bows and javelins.

Not to mention launching such a charge with five hundred fully armed knights, even if they all dismounted and fought on foot, they would not be able to beat the two thousand militiamen.

Where did that Rodritte get so many fine plate armors? This thing is expensive to manufacture and expensive to maintain. Knights like them who are not well mixed can't even get a set of such plates. First. Has that fellow Rodrite found that big gold mine?
