Heroes of the Invincible Knight

late at night

The moon, which was supposed to give a glimmer of light to the dark night sky, was completely blocked by the clouds, and the entire northern land was plunged into a pitch black night.

It's just that there is a slightly different place in the countryside where the night should be quiet, but the sound of frogs and insects is everywhere.

On the unnamed hill near Xiaoshi Village, a large number of Hunter's garrison troops gathered here. Tens of thousands of torches illuminated the picture, and the sound of insects and frogs was restrained.

"Be careful, don't go into the woods, report any abnormalities in time, don't love to fight!"

"yes!"

But within half a day, at least tens of thousands of peasants and soldiers gathered here, and the mobilization speed was a bit faster than the regular army of the kingdom.

To be able to have this speed, one is to fight at home. These defense teams and farmers who came here are locals, and they are not far away and are very familiar with the distance.

The second is that the Hunter family’s ability to mobilize during wartime has been doing well. The control and control of various villages is absolutely the best among all the nobles in the kingdom. Every village has grassroots officials, and the management is quite perfect. It is not surprising that this kind of mobilization speed can be achieved.

The speed of the encirclement was within Richard's expectations, but far exceeded Tal's expectations.

Through the gaps in the leaves in the forest, Tal looked at the densely packed torches nearby with a gloomy expression. He had never seen such a vast ocean of people's war.

In Tal's mind, as long as he persisted in the night in the hilly woodland, there was always a chance to escape in the dark,

After all, their team is very capable, small in number, and strong in strength. It is not difficult to break through some weak encirclement circles in the dark, but now the number of torches outside the layers has obviously exceeded Tal's expectations.

In Tal's impression, even the Lanster family shouldn't have such a terrifying mobilization ability, as long as he doesn't go to Snow City, he won't be surrounded by the army.

"Master Tal, shall we continue?"

Apart from Hypatia, there are more than a dozen capable half-orc warriors behind Tal, all weapons are already in their hands, and it seems that they are about to break out of the encirclement in the dark.

But when he saw the number of people in the Hunter family, he couldn't help asking in a slightly hesitant tone.

"Continue! Try not to disturb the opponent's hands for a while, and avoid a fight. If you are found out, you must resolve the fight in the shortest possible time, understand!"

"yes!"

In order to avoid making too much noise, the half-orc warriors following Tal responded with a low voice.

"Set off…"

Breaking out of the siege in this situation was considered aggressive, but Tal had no choice but to wait until it got dark. If it took another two days, this area might be so surrounded that even mosquitoes could not fly.

outside the hills

Li Cha led a group of cavalry gathered together, ready to go out at any time, as if he was sure that there would be a battle tonight.

Behind Li Cha, besides Zebul and other champion knights, there is also the great knight Hardman who has planned to follow the Hunter family. Although Li Cha has become the head of the Red Flame Knights, he has already shared a lot of daily management with Ha. Although Demen and Hardmen have not joined for a long time, with their own strength, they can barely be regarded as touching the core of the power of the Hunter family.

Hardman also looked solemn at this time. Although his side had an absolute advantage at the moment, the good habits Hardman developed in Dragon's Breath made him never despise the orcs. Since they are infiltrated orcs, no matter what You can never be too careful.

"There are enemies, there are enemies!"

"Clang, clang, clang..."

The clear sound of the gong could be heard very widely in the dark night, but it was extremely harsh to Tal's ears. It was also their bad luck that they bypassed the patrol team, but did not escape the secret whistle. These secret whistles were specially selected. Among the half-elves known for their eyesight, they are all the ones with excellent eyesight,

Before Tal could perceive him, the secret whistle found Tal and the others trying to break through, and without saying a word, he rang the golden gong in his hand,

It can be said that one stone caused a thousand waves, and a large number of patrols began to approach the place where the gongs and drums sounded, putting Tal and others who had just broken through the first patrol line into an extremely embarrassing situation.

If we continue to break through at this moment, I am afraid that what we will face is the pursuit of the cavalry. They may not run slower than the horses for a short time, but if they really want to see the saw, except for the two lands of Tal and Hypatia, the other half-orcs will be slowly chased by the horses. On the other hand, not to mention that the other party still has the existence of Chilong, the probability of escaping is very small.

But going back is no different from slow death. After tonight, the human defense line will only become stronger and stronger, and there will be no chance of escape.

"Clang!"

Instead of waiting for a slow death, it is better to take advantage of the night to fight, maybe there is still a chance to escape,

Having made up his mind, Tal drew out the long knife that was originally in the scabbard, and prepared to lead his men in a desperate fight.

"Stop chasing, go! Break through to the southwest!"

After drinking and trying to catch up and kill Hypatia, who was the secret sentry just now, Tal directly issued the breakout order and direction,

Although he also hated the secret whistle that rang the gong just now, wishing to cut him into two with the golden gong, but now is not the time to vent his anger, and there is no delay for a second at this moment.

Tal was not unprepared before he was about to break out of the siege, at least he observed the direction of the opponent's cavalry, and chose the southwest to stay away from the opponent's cavalry as much as possible to buy more time.

"enemy!"

"Let the arrows! Let the arrows!"

"Whoo, search, whoosh!"

An unlucky patrol team happened to be in the way of Tal and others to break through. This patrol team is also brave. Although it has learned that the enemy is extremely dangerous and invincible, but at this time the battle is obviously inevitable. Under such circumstances, the chief of the patrol still ordered decisively and launched an attack on his own initiative.

With the development of the Hunter family, the life of the villagers on the old site of the Hunter family is getting better and better. These farmers and soldiers who only receive training in their spare time after busy farming, except for the spears they distribute, most of them bring their own Other equipment, such as leather armor and hunting bows, are almost all hand-made. Those with better conditions also invited blacksmiths and tailors to learn the style of the soldiers of the Flying Bear Army to create simple cloth face armor. The soldiers are actually much stronger.

If you have to make a comparison, the peasants and soldiers of the Hunter family are a bit like the government soldiers that have not yet collapsed in the Sui and Tang Dynasties, and their combat effectiveness is still slightly guaranteed.

It's a pity that in the face of the absolute gap in strength, this kind of bravery and well-trained did not play a big role.

More than a dozen arrows shot from hunting bows did not pose any threat to Tal and the others.

With a distance of less than fifty steps, these arrows were not badly aimed at the head, but they were easily blocked, and did not even have the effect of blocking the attack at all.

The captain of the patrol team twitched his eyelids when he saw this scene. Although he didn't expect a dozen hunting bows to be of much use, the opponent was too relaxed.

"kill!"

I couldn't think too much about it. Seeing that the group of tall and burly enemies on the opposite side had rushed up, the captain of the patrol also raised his sharp sword and led the peasants and soldiers to charge up.

The peasants and soldiers who had just finished firing a round of arrows didn't even bother to put their hunting bows back. They threw them on the ground at will, then raised their spears and rushed forward with the captain.

Although the military law of the peasants and soldiers is not so cruel, if the captain dies, not only will they not win, but they will also be punished severely if they survive.

"boom!"

"Hey!"

"ah!"

In the eyes of the peasants and soldiers, the captain, who was already quite capable of fighting, was kicked out the moment he met the leader of the opponent.

That's right, it's literally the kind of kicking, the captain who looked mighty in a cloth mask was kicked five or six meters away, and the opponent didn't even bother to swing a weapon.

The patrol captain tried to struggle to get up after landing, but the heavy force obviously caused him serious injuries. He tried to get up twice but failed, and finally lay down directly on the ground, his hands and feet twitching slightly.

And the results of the peasants and soldiers behind him were no better than him. The group of enemies shrouded in black robes on the opposite side looked like monsters in front of the peasants and soldiers. The peasants and soldiers who launched the thrust split open with their weapons and people, and blood splashed on several people around them.

"Go, don't love to fight!"

When Tal's words fell, Hypatia's scimitar took another life,

In just a few seconds of contact, more than a dozen people including the captain of the patrol team fell down, and more than half of the patrol team was directly killed or injured. Combat experience and physical fitness are crushing.

After Tal gave the order, everyone including Hypatia did not hesitate, and directly gave up the stunned enemies around them, and continued to flee towards the southwest.

Only a dozen scattered peasants and soldiers were left standing there, some of their faces were even covered with the blood of their comrades.

Five breaths? Ten breaths? It hardly played a blocking role, and half of the companions around him died. I am afraid that some of these surviving farmers and soldiers will leave a great shadow in today's battle.

…

However, in the dark night, Tal and the others did not realize it for the time being. When the golden gong sounded just now, the royal griffins in the sky followed them again...
