Chapter 39: Let the Arrows Fly

Maple Leaf City is warm in winter and cool in summer, and has become a holy place for members of the San Jose royal family to escape the cold and heat. The present Governor is the Emperor's cousin, Duke Charles Roberts, and the twenty-seven-year-old Duke is handsome and dashing, and has reached the fourteenth rank of vindictiveness, and it is rumored that he is the lover of Her Royal Highness the Queen Mother. His Majesty the Emperor of San Jose is now nineteen years old, and has only been on the throne for a year, and the power is in the hands of his uncle, Prince Regent Horliuf Roberts.

Maple Leaf City is more than 2,000 miles away from the royal capital of Rome, and originally had a magical space teleportation array leading to Rome City, but with the death of a space magician supported by the San Jose royal family, the magic teleportation array was equivalent to being scrapped.

The Mayan continent is not like the Demon Realm that produces teleportation crystals, and the cities in the Demon Realm have popularized crystal teleportation arrays, and there are a large number of teleportation array drivers who practice wind arcane, and you can teleport you to any city with a teleportation array by paying a little money.

There are two kinds of magic teleportation in human society, the common one is to burn the space magic teleportation scroll, the magic teleportation scroll is only made by high-level space magicians, and space magic is the most difficult magic to cultivate, and high-level space magicians are even rarer, and it takes a lot of magic to make a teleportation scroll. The market price of a magic teleportation scroll has reached 100,000 gold coins, so even if the royal personnel are not a last resort, they will not use it lightly.

The other is to engrave a large space teleportation magic array in the two places, and the conditions for use are also very harsh, and it must be activated with the cooperation of a space magician and a wind magician.

Governor Charles returned to Rome, the royal capital, with his army to participate in the 'Durex Festival' and the Carnival Auction. Five thousand knights of the Knights of the Tempest, five thousand heavy cavalry, five thousand light cavalry, three thousand heavy infantry, two thousand archers, one thousand miscellaneous infantry, and more than a hundred vehicles holding slaves, drove to Rome. Such a force is a lineup that no raiding gang dares to peep into.

But just after walking two hundred miles, he was robbed.

The Governor-General, who was enjoying the stunning beauty, received the report, slapped the beauty twice on the buttocks, pulled the silk quilt to cover her, and got off the luxurious car in full clothes. The guards dressed the Governor in armor, and while he listened to the adjutant's report, three thousand soldiers and horses lined up five miles ahead to block the way, and captured more than a hundred of our scouts, and sent a word that they were going to charge a toll of one million gold coins.

The Governor was rejoicing.

Duke Charles Roberts, the eldest son of Prince Roberts, the second brother of His Majesty the former Emperor Hokki Roberts, is the eldest member of the royal family of this generation, blonde and blue-eyed, tall and handsome, known as the first beautiful man in the San Jose Empire. Zhixiao followed the imperial sword saint Antonio to practice swordsmanship, fighting spirit, and thought that he had superior wisdom and fought invincible opponents all over the country. Therefore, the armor he designed for himself was magnificent, powerful and lightweight, and mainly suitable for love scenes.

Charles was also a bachelor. His motto, "Dry and faint, don't get married." No one knows, I'm afraid he doesn't know, and I'm afraid he doesn't know how many of his lovers he had, except that he had several rooms dedicated to women's bras, each with a name written on it, such as: Marquise Moumou, Moumou Baroness, Moumou Viscountess.

The San Jose Empire was the most developed in the Mayan Continent. So the empire's aphrodisiac drugs are also at the forefront of the world. Therefore, the members of the royal family have been bedridden for generations, so His Majesty the Emperor and Prince He, both died in middle age.

Imperial power fell into the hands of his uncle, Prince Horhuf Roberts. If it weren't for the fact that the regent of Horliuv held the military and political power and supported Prince Charles to ascend to the throne, Charles would have taken the throne long ago.

Charles watched his stupid little white-faced cousin Charlie Roberts sit on the emperor's throne in a stupid daze, letting the regent call the shots. He was angry, what is this waste sitting on it, and I have to bend down to salute him. If you don't give up the throne to me, I will fuck your mother, and I will fuck your sister, find the right time and hug your sister. He really wanted to do it, and at the same time seduce the widowed beautiful aunt and her princess daughter to be married.

Charles's ill-intentioned intentions and misdeeds were so flamboyant that the royal family of the San Jose Empire became the laughing stock of nobles from all over the world. Charles was also dubbed the 'amorous Grand Duke', and was paired with the 'lustful prince' of San Francisco. The Imperial Uncle Regent couldn't bear it anymore and joined forces with Prime Minister Dolma to drive him out of the center of power and exile him to Maple Leaf City. It is called 'the last bastion of the Empire'.

The Sea Tribes attacked the shore and fought all the way to the Wetlands, and Charles fled back to Rome in fright, and was impeached, saying that he had escaped from the battle, fuck, it didn't make sense!

After the end of the War of the Five Clans, he was driven back to Maple Leaf City, and the San Jose Empire, as one of the three major empires on the mainland, who would dare to invade Maple Leaf City? This is persecution! A group of shameless people!

This time, on the 'Durex' Festival, Charles took more than 20,000 cronies back to the city under the pretext that the road was not safe, and there was a hidden 'Knights of the Flowing Wind' that he had cultivated for many years......

But it's really not safe on the road, and someone actually robs him of his way! There is no heavenly reason, what's wrong with this world, fools actually appear in groups!

The 'Amorous Grand Duke' ordered the lieutenants to be sent to the heavy infantry and archers in position, the hoplites to maintain their attacking formations, and the light cavalry regiments to respond on two flanks to prevent the enemy from diverting the tigers from the mountains.

The captain was ordered to raise the flag, the infantry ran, forming a circular formation, enclosing the chariots and horses in the middle, the heavy shield pointed to the ground, the spear was added to the recess of the upper part of the shield, and after the archers lined up the infantry, the hoplites lined up in five rows in front, and the army was at its peak. Charles was satisfied, mounted his tall white horse, and trotted slowly with the Five Thousand Wind Riders to the place of trouble.

The San Jose Empire is known as a peaceful country in the Mayan continent, and the imperial family receives the 'Hobel Peace Prize' awarded by the Church of St. Paul every year.

The San Francisco Empire had a Silver Pedestal Armor Infantry Corps, and the Pompeii Empire had a Heavy Scythe Infantry Corps. San Jose is by no means a country that can easily beat a weak woman. This large country located in the middle of the continent is not only a rich woman, but also a rich woman who protects dozens of small vassal countries, and belongs to the battle woman among the rich women.

Because the San Jose Empire has a scarab jumping army, San Jose's crossbow arrows are as powerful as his aphrodisiac, this beautifully decorated royal standard jumping crossbow, the two wings of the shooting groove are wrapped around the beautiful wings like a seven-star ladybug, usually the two wings are lifted, can be inserted into the holster on the side of the leg, easy to carry.

Separate the wings can be installed to install the box, using the ejection force of the metal spring and the back and forth of the pipe winding, the scarab jumping crossbow can be in the form of a single shot, firing six three-edged crossbow arrows in succession, with an infrared standard made of laser gems, this crossbow can be said to be a hundred shots.

Although every arrow shot must be rewound, although the military standard jumping crossbow can only hold three three-edged crossbow arrows at a time, its effective range is 15 meters, 100 meters through the heavy scythe armor, 50 meters through the silver base armor.

The most expensive part of the scarab jumping crossbow is its elastic spring, because of the fatigue of the metal, this spring is theoretically used three hundred times, once the spring is broken, if not replaced, this kind of artwork is generally expensive crossbow is a complete waste.

At present, only the San Jose Empire has mastered the technology of making machine springs, this kind of machine springs must be mixed with several metals when smelting, and the ratio is extremely complex, and the machine springs made by ordinary human countries can only be used at most twenty or thirty times, and the ejection power is far from enough.

The metal spring of this crossbow is known to have two metals in the world that are most suitable for forging, one is the black gold of the demon world, and the other is quark multi-mercury, both of which are super elastic metals that are shaped at one time and never get tired, far from being comparable to mixed metals.

Quarkdo mercury is not real mercury, but a rare metal, but the color is as deep and dark as mercury.

Like the Silver Pedestal Warriors of the San Francisco Empire and the Heavy Scythes of Pompeii, San Jose's Super Class is a 100,000-strong crossbow army, a water scarab, known as the nemesis of all hoplites.

The officers of the 'Knights of the Flowing Wind', the descendant of the amorous Grand Duke, and his guards are equipped with a total of 100 royal crossbows, and ordinary knights are also equipped with military crossbows, which is the belongings he has accumulated over the years, and he has almost used up his gold coins, which is also where his confidence lies.

The mounts of the knights of the Knights of the Flowing Wind are all sweaty horses of northern origin, tall and powerful, with smooth lines and extremely fast sprints. All the knights are Dou Qi level 5 or above, and each of them is equipped with a four-meter bayonet spear, a two-handed war sword and a military crossbow.

The Amorous Grand Duke thinks that his Windswept Knights are enough to defeat a gang of 20,000 thieves, which is true, of course, there are no 20,000 thieves in the Mayan continent yet. Even the marauding armies of the two empires would never risk a war between the two countries to rob the regular armies of the San Jose Empire.

He really couldn't understand it, who dared to break ground on Tai Sui's head, and he couldn't play a trick to tune the tiger from the mountain! Could it be that the thief group wanted to take refuge in himself and deliberately engaged in a gimmick.

From a distance, I saw about 3,000 cavalry arrayed in front, all blue helmets and blue armor, and crystal blue helmets emitted a blurry blue light under the sunlight. Hey, I didn't hear that raiding group was wearing such beautiful and neat armor!

It looks very leisurely, because the front row of the opponent is more than 1,000 cavalry, I don't know if it is poor horse control skills or loose discipline of the troops, anyway, the cavalry line is uneven, the personnel are shaking, and the horses will be out of the queue and will be retreated.

The Duke laughed again.

The amorous Grand Duke raised his hand at three hundred meters to signal, slowed down, and lined up.

The knights controlled the speed of their horses, gradually forming two rows of formations that were easiest to charge.

He wanted to control the distance between the two sides to two hundred meters, so that the cavalry could have the acceleration distance from the start to the high speed, and could quickly enter the range of the crossbow.

Entering a distance of 200 meters to freeze the formation, he was just about to beckon and call the opponent's generals in front of the formation to the middle to answer, but who knew that the opponent's generals raised their hands and waved, and all the soldiers on the other side opened their bows and shot without saying a word.

With the dense and crisp sound of bowstrings vibrating like the Grim Reaper plucking a harp, sharp arrows pierced the chests and throats of the Windriders.

The arrows are very accurate, and what is even more terrifying is that the arrows are very fast, and they are blessed with magic speed and power. The Flowing Wind Knight wears the most popular knight net armor in the Mayan Continent, with animal skin armor as the inner pad, covered with a steel wire woven ring net, and steel armor is protected at important places such as helmets, hearts, shoulders, and arms, which are lightweight, mobile, and easy to fight. But in the face of the black and golden war bow of the demon elves and the wolf's tooth arrows blessed with speed and strength, wearing this expensive knight's armor is no different from running naked.

Ordinary archers will let the arrows fly for a while, but they are not ordinary archers, they are demon elves and magic archers, and when the bowstring sounds, the arrows on that side are already in front of them, and this kind of arrow quickly deprives the Flowing Wind Knights of all their offensive advantages.

If it is an ordinary bow and arrow, it can only shoot at an elevation arc at this distance, and when the arrow falls, the cavalry has already rushed through the place where the arrow fell, and if they rush forward seventy or eighty meters, their jumping crossbow will rain like a torrential rain into the opposing camp.

One hundred meters is just a matter of breath for the light cavalry, and another hundred meters is also a snap of the fingers, and then the tiger enters the flock, not to mention the tiger is the majority, which is also the pre-war expectation of the amorous Grand Duke.

The amorous Grand Duke didn't have a chance to think about what to do next, he was the first to fall off his horse with an arrow, and a wolf's tooth arrow pierced through his love field golden armor and plunged into his left shoulder. Several brave and faithful knights jumped off their horses and pounced on Charles, dragging him backwards.

The horses neighed, and the knights were carried off their horses like dumplings, screaming and wailing.

The first round of arrow rain brought seven or eight hundred people to the Flowing Wind Knights, and the knights were also veterans who had been trained for many years and fought fiercely, all of them with martial arts and fighting spirit. After all, there are more than 4,000 horsemen, twice as many as the enemy, and you can completely annihilate the enemy by rushing and rushing over.

These enemies are too hateful, too shameless, too vile, more thieves than thieves. Don't know your name, don't declare war, don't explain your intentions, don't wait for the Duke to ask, you will collectively release cold arrows when you come up. The haughty hearts of the knights were mercilessly wounded.

After the first round of arrows, there is usually a short interlude, when the knights charge and take off their jumping crossbows and prepare to return fire. However, the enemy's arrow rain did not seem to have stopped, and it did not stop at all, and thousands of people were knocked down after rushing fifty meters.

Suddenly, the other party did not let go of the arrow, but flew into the sky, and when he left the saddle, he kicked the horse's buttocks, and thousands of war horses rushed towards the knights.

Dodge the galloping horses, the enemy has already flown into the air, the knights are dumbfounded, the enemy will fly... This... What the fuck is this? Why do you have wings...

The nightmare of the Flowing Wind Knight had just begun, and there was still hope to return fire after being shot just now, but now the enemy was hovering at an altitude of three hundred meters and still firing, and the remaining two thousand knights were desperate and fled in all directions. But no matter how fast a horse runs, is it too fast?

Dugu, Audrey, and Mona waited by the side of the amorous duke, and the two elven warriors treated him with arrow wounds according to the amorous duke.

Her Majesty, Audrey and Mona, looked at Charles with interest, and they had all heard of Charles's amorous deeds from the head of the court.

The amorous Grand Duke finally figured out who the enemy was, and seeing that the Wandering Wind Knights, which he had worked hard for many years, were destroyed, and he himself was injured and captured, he thought to himself that his beautiful life had come to an end, and the plans he had made for so long had been wasted, and the efforts and gold coins he had made for so long had been wasted, and he couldn't help but tremble! Tears of pain couldn't help but roll in their eyes.

The fleeing Demon Elf warriors gradually returned to their ranks and brought back more than 3,000 captives. The demon elf warriors captured a hundred royal scarab crossbows and more than 4,800 military scarab crossbows, indicating that the Flowing Wind Knights had been wiped out within half an hour. There were more than 3,000 good horses, knights' swords, and knights' spears piled up into a hill.

Dugu repeatedly tried to shoot the royal crossbow, and was secretly amazed in his heart, this is a kind of powerful crossbow with extremely amazing penetration, embossed with the scarab beetle of the royal windmill of San Jose and the delicate emblem of tulips, the smooth beauty is a murderous aura that cannot be concealed, it is an ordinary person holding this kind of weapon, and it is definitely a nightmare for magicians and samurai.
