Chapter 248 [Knight's Glory]

Before dawn, the soldiers in the wooden village were already busy nervously.

The infantry of the Norman regiment began to wear armor. Bundles of sharp spears were carried.

The cavalry came out of the horse, carefully hung the saddle, and fastened the belly belt. The knight, dressed like a tin can, had a bloated body, but he sat there resting, quietly recuperating. Hu Cong on the side carefully wiped the long sword and sharpened the blade. Then nervously inspect the knight's spear to see if there is anything wrong.

Breakfast is still a broth.

Of course, the broth distributed to the elite troops of the Norman Legion was filled with a few spoonfuls of Merlin's special "decoction" in each bucket!

......

After a full meal of meat, the morale of the soldiers was noticeably higher.

When the horn sounded, the barracks finally showed the pre-war killing atmosphere!

Even the army of the Middle Ages...... But the army, after all, is the army!

......

Chen Xiaolian's hundred-man team is in the Norman army. Weapons and food were distributed early. And Chen Xiaolian's hundred-man team was assigned to King William's personal guard. This made Chen Xiaolian quite satisfied.

And Tianlie has been directly transferred to his side by Chen Xiaolian - who is also accompanying Tianlie, there is also this guy Sasha.

However, in this cold weapon war, Sasha's hacking skills can only be an ornament - of course, this is relative to other game participants, at least Sasha is also an awakened person, and his body has also been strengthened, at least much stronger than ordinary people.

Chen Xiaolian saw King William and his generals.

The commanders of the Breton and Flemish legions had returned to their armies. These two Allied forces from France will be responsible for the attack and defense of the left and right flanks on the battlefield.

The Norman Legion existed as a central army, in addition to mercenaries as a reserve.

Those tall French-style cavalry. It made Chen Xiaolian a little more excited--this is barely a bit of the feeling of knightly warfare in ancient Western times.

King William personally put on his armor - the leaders of the Western armies of this era were all personally in battle. The kind of commander-in-chief who sits in the rear is not welcomed and embraced by the army.

According to historical records, King William and his two brothers were both fierce generals in the army.

King William put on his bright red mantle, while his two brothers. Ode and Robert, on the other hand, wear black capes.

King William's scorching guard had a powerful order of knights. With more than 100 knights and more than 200 servant knights, a cavalry force of more than 300 horsemen, it was a very powerful cavalry army in Europe in this era.

In the morning, the wooden village was opened, and the army began to leave in formation and drive into battle.

Beneath the hill where Harold was stationed was an open plain.

The morning light fell on the earth. King William's army appeared on the plain like a swarm of black and oppressive ants, and the swords and axes in the hands of the warriors were like a forest, and thousands of pairs of feet trampled on the earth, making a dull sound.

It's like thunder!

Viewed from the air, King William's army was already in a medieval standard formation.

The Norman corps was in the center, the Allied Breton corps was on the left, and the Flemish corps was on the right.

The black-pressed army kept approaching until it was far from the hill. It was almost close to the range of the bow and arrow before it finally stopped.

On top of the hill. Harold's army had lined up the array.

They formed an arc-shaped procession along the hill, layer upon layer, column after column! The typical ovoid shield used by the English was erected, and it was densely put together, layer upon layer, to form a shield wall.

Under the sun. The cross emblem on the shield shimmers! The spear hidden behind the shield makes the heart chill!

King William's army was more abundant than that of the Londoners.

Both the Norman legions and the two Allied legions were multi-class, with cavalry infantry and crossbowmen.

Harold's army, however, does not seem to be equipped with cavalry - Harold hastily arrived from London. An all-in-one queue of infantry in the army.

What reassured Chen Xiaolian was that in England in this era, there was no powerful "English longbowman" in later generations.

Otherwise, at the present distance between the two sides, King William's army was within the range of the English longbowmen.

The whining horn sounded incessantly.

At this time, the officers were all in full spirit, and they were full of vigor and reorganized their ranks.

The officers yelled and cursed, checking the rigor of the ranks back and forth.

Chen Xiaolian noticed that in the rear of the Norman army, groups of archers lined up, went around the two wings, and then began to line up in front of the infantry ranks!

After the bow and arrow water were lined up, he began to pull out the arrows in the quiver one by one and stick them in the dirt in front of him!

"It's going to start!" Spare Tire took a deep breath, his face a little excited.

Chen Xiaolian didn't say a word, and carefully stared at the Harold army on the high post in the distance.

......

King William rode out, he raised his knight's sword in front of the array, roared a few times, and then he began to ride his horse in front of the array, with a majestic voice, seize the last opportunity, and boost morale!

In fact, his army numbered more than eight thousand, and the vast ranks spread out across the plain, and even with the greatest effort, his voice could not be heard by all.

But he sat on the horse, and the red cloak fluttered in the wind!

The sound cut off by the wind in the distance fell into Chen Xiaolian's ears intermittently, although he didn't listen carefully, but only looked at the majestic posture of King William sitting on his horse at the moment - Chen Xiaolian had to admit that he did have a bit of the majesty of a leader.

At this moment, King William's body, I don't know whether it is the effect of sunlight or psychology - he seems to be shrouded in aura!

William was here to boost morale, and on the opposite hill, Harold's banner was held high, and the London soldiers began to shout hard.

shouted from the other side, and the Norman army here was naturally not to be outdone. The soldiers roared loudly, French and Italian, cursing all kinds of foul language.

Chen Xiaolian suddenly smiled: "Is this the last moment to show morale before the war? Spare tire, let our team shout too! Just sing our team song!"

The spare tire couldn't help but laugh and strode out of the lineup. Standing in front of everyone, he yelled loudly: "Manchester United!!"

The centurion let out a shout.

Then, in unison, they began to sing aloud.

This is the lyrics that the spare tire and tire taught everyone to sing together last night...... Although only a few sentences.

“Glory,glory,ManUnited......”

......

The uniform singing voice is so obvious in the chaotic shouting and scolding around it. Even the song spread far away to the opposite side......

......

"I ...... Did I hear me right?!"

Phoenix, who was standing at the head of the line, suddenly couldn't help laughing.

The phoenix stepped forward and looked forward, a bow in her hand, and she held the monster's shoulder hard to look into the distance.

In the distance, the intermittent lyrics of "Glory, glory, ManUnited......" were heard. The phoenix couldn't help but curl the corners of his mouth.

"Which Awakened One is this spoofing the Manchester United anthem?" Phoenix narrowed his eyes, "It can't be the guy with the little face, right?"

......

King William also heard the singing voice from Chen Xiaolian's hundred-man team, and the neat and uniform singing voice sounded more imposing than the chaotic roaring and cursing voices of others.

He sat down on his horse and looked at it, and nodded—this kid really had some strange skills.

Thinking of this, King William pulled out his long sword and pointed high at the sky!

"Serve the King!!"

The nearest knight to William was Taylor Fer, and the guy was the first to cry out wildly.

The voice was immediately echoed, and countless soldiers and officers began to roar.

"Serve the King!!"

"Playing for the King!!"

After the shouting turned into a neat slogan. The sound is much more powerful!

"Robert!" William rode his horse to his brother's side, glancing at the two brothers sitting on the horse: "Ode! Those Londoners will only hide on the hill to defend!" We're going to attack first!"

"Command, my king!"

Robert replied angrily.

"Archer!"

Robert snorted, turned and waved his arm down at the queue of archers!

At the officer's command, the archers drew their arrows from their fronts, bent their bows, and bent their knees. Towards the sky.

"God is with us!!"

The officers of the archers roared!

Airplanes!!!

The dense rain of arrows flew out frantically, covering the sky and the sun!

Fight, fight!

......

The rain of arrows that cover the sky and the sun is sprinkled like a swarm of locusts!

High on the hill, in the midst of Harold's army array. The soldiers raised their shields, as if the queues had turned into turtle shells.

A dense rain of arrows fell in the queue, and the sound of clanging was endless! The arrows hit the shield with a crisp sound, and the shafts of the arrows were bouncing everywhere! Only a very small number of unlucky ghosts were wounded by the arrows that fell through the cracks in the shields, and sporadic screams came and went in the queue.

The volley of the Norman regiment was launched in three rounds!

The dense rain of arrows washed over the Londoners' military formations on the hill, but under the protection of the shield, this dense rain of arrows covered, in addition to being visually quite impactful, in fact, the killing effect did not get too good results.

The phoenix carefully crouched on the ground, and beside her, the tall monster held a huge round shield to block all the arrows, and his monkey was even lying in the phoenix's arms. Not far away, there were occasional screams from soldiers who had been wounded by stray arrows, and the phoenix only glanced at it calmly.

She exhaled softly and looked up at the monster, which smiled at her.

"We had a lot of terrain, they were shooting from the back, and then it was a head-on attack. Phoenix sighed: "For a while, everyone be careful." ”

......

After three rounds of intensive rain of arrows, the queue of Londoners on the high hill still stands like rocks in the waves.

Although there were occasional sporadic screams, the formation remained largely intact.

When the Norman regiment stopped shooting. The London soldiers on the high post began to roar, they lowered their shields and let out mocking shouts at the enemy opposite, showing off their own integrity and mocking the weak attack of the other side.

There are also some civilian armies that have come out of the shield wall. Just before the battlefield, he unbuttoned his pants, revealing his white ass to the Normans.

Looking at the towering shield wall, King William's face was solemn, and he waved his long sword and pointed at the shield wall in front of the hill.

"Who! Break that wall for me!!"

Taylor Buddha was already extremely excited at the moment.

I don't know if it's because of the natural troubadour's blood romanticism, or because King William seems too kingly at the moment.

Anyway, Taylor Buddha only felt the blood in his whole body at the moment, and he just wished that he could rush forward immediately and break his bones for the king he was loyal to!

- The poor fellow didn't know that he had only drunk two extra bowls of broth for breakfast, which had been "potioned" by Merlin.

Taylor felt himself warm all over. It's like there's no end to it!

Hearing King William's call, Taylor Buddha rushed out with a loud roar!

"My king, let your faithful servant Taylor Buddha cleave the way to victory for you!!"

At this moment, Taylor Buddha, who was enthusiastic about it, looked at the dense shield wall of Londoners in the distance, as if he didn't feel terrible at all, but only felt that it was a stepping stone for his own achievements!

King William looked squarely at Taylor Buddha and spoke majestically:

"My bravest servant, Taylor, I grant you the glory of the first charge!"

Taylor Fernandes's blood is on the head!

He roared, snatching a spear from the knight's hand. Held high.

Taylor Ford rushed out of the ranks! He went out alone, and rushed to the hill single-handedly!

Chen Xiaolian was stunned!

"This ...... What is this going to do?? Medieval generals charge into battle alone?!"

"It's tradition. The spare tire that knows some military sighed.

When Taylor Buddha rode out. On the hill, in Harold's army, a wall of shields fell, and a war horse galloped out, immediately a knight in armor like a tin can.

Apparently, this was a knightly officer under Harold.

This knightly officer had a riding spear in one hand. The other held a Harold flag in his hand and held it high, triggering cheers and shouts from the soldiers.

Then the knight threw the banner into the sky and leaned over to ride his horse. Rushed down the hill!

The two knights went out of their own way and rushed towards each other!

Tyler Ver was a standard French knight, and he lowered his horse and clamped his rifle, the sound of the wind pouring in from his helmet as if it could not disturb his mind!

Taylor Fer's eyes were fixed on the knight on the other side! He felt like the blood was about to spurt out of his head!

......

Chen Xiaolian was in the queue and saw two knights rushing in front of him!

He saw with his own eyes that Taylor Buddha dodged the opponent's spear sideways, and at the same time, the tip of Taylor's spear slammed into the chest of the opposing knight!

The sharp spears combined with the charging power of the horses drove the poor knight off his horse!

The tin can flew up like a piece of paper! And then it flew far away and landed with a bang!

There was a terrifying huge blood hole in his chest, and his armor had been torn apart!

Without even being sure, Chen Xiaolian knew that this knight was dead!

Dead too much to die again!!

Taylor Buddha finally sat up straight on his horse!

He roared wildly, threw away the spear in his hand, which had been deformed by the tremendous force of the impact, and drew his knight's sword and pointed it at the sky!

Rumble!!!

The Norman legion erupted in thunderous cheers!

Taylor Buddha even picked up his helmet and threw it away, his hair dancing wildly in the wind!

"Long live King William!!"

Taylor's eyes were red, and after a few roars, he suddenly turned his horse's head and rushed single-handedly towards the Londoners on the high post!!

Chen Xiaolian was stunned!!

He thinks that Taylor Buddha is sent to death!

But he didn't know that it was a tradition!!

Knights charge!

The knight has already proven his courage after the heads-up, and at the same time, his actions will be considered a symbol of martial courage by everyone!

And in the end, he rushed to the enemy's array, which was seen as a noblest form of courage!!

At this time, even the enemy can't release arrows to sneak attack this knight who ends in heads-up and then charges into battle!

Otherwise, it will be regarded as a kind of cowardice! If any commander makes such a move, it will greatly demoralize his side!

"Tyler Fern wins!!Odro Bell!!Charge!!!" King William roared!

......

Taylor Buddha single-handedly rushed to the high post, and when his war horse rushed to the high post, the speed was obviously getting slower and slower, and on the battlefield, the army of the Dunlun people quietly watched this knight come alone, rushing towards his shield wall!

No one released arrows!

It was as if everyone was quietly waiting for this glorious moment to come!

The Norman brigades began to approach, the infantry ranks pressed forward, and the cavalry began to advance from both flanks!

And at the forefront, Taylor Buddha, alone Taylor Buddha, has rushed to the edge of the shield wall of the English!

Chen Xiaolian was in the queue and followed the team quickly, while staring at Taylor Buddha tightly!

......

He saw with his own eyes that Taylor's horse had crashed headlong into the shield wall! Although the horse's momentum had been very slow all the way up the mountain, the horsepower still knocked a shield away!

The horse Taylor Buddha rushed forward, his long sword swung hard, severing the two spears in front of him, and he even split the head of a shield-bearer soldier with a single sword!

But soon, two long axes swung and cut off his horse's legs, and the horse fell with a roar, and the figure of Taylor fell from his horse!

Spears and swords stabbed at the knight on both the left and right......

And this is the last time Chen Xiaolian saw Taylor Buddha!

The shield wall that he knocked open was soon filled by other shields, submerging Taylor Buddha behind the shield......

"Knight's Glory !!"

It was the last cry from Taylor Buddha.

......

Roaring like thunderous footsteps.

The Norman Legion's queue continues to press forward!

The infantry began to trot, and Chen Xiaolian saw that the one who was charging at the forefront was King William's brother Robert!

The guy rode his horse and galloped, and behind him were more than a dozen Norman regimental cavalrymen!

They rushed to the front and quickly rushed to the high post!

At this time, the English began to fire arrows.

The arrows are very sparse and seem to be small in size.

The sparse rain of arrows did not effectively stop the advance of the Norman army!

The soldiers began to roar!

As the horn sounded more and more urgently!

"Loyal to the King!!"

Slogans came from the front team!

Rumble!!

The brigade suddenly accelerated! From a brisk march to a full rush!!

The black team, like the waves of the sea, swept up the hill!!

And in the face of this wave is the shield wall where the English stand!

...... (To be continued......)
