Chapter 220: The Whole Army Strikes!
Chapter 220: The whole army attacks!
Countless cavalry just appeared from the field of vision, and then they had already arrived in front of them, although there were only 1,000 cavalry, but in the eyes of these dozen people, it was still boundless. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
The whole body was covered with full armor, including the neat armor of the horses that sat down, and the complete equipment not only frightened these wildlings, but even Jon Snow and Severed Palm Colin were shocked, because they had never heard of such an elite cavalry in the Night's Watch Legion or in the Seven Kingdoms.
Even among the wealthiest families, the Lannisters, their cavalry did not have the luxury of full-body steel armor, but was made of hard leather and some steel.
And the footsteps of the horse's hooves are the same while running, these cavalry can imagine how elite they are, you know, it is already very difficult, almost impossible, to say that it is still on this hilly mountain, not in the plain.
A thousand horsemen instantly surrounded a dozen savages, who surrounded Jon Snow and Severed Palm Colin in the middle, they were back to back with each other, their weapons outward, and they looked at these sudden cavalry with horrified faces.
Even because of the armor on the heads of these cavalrymen, they couldn't even see each other's faces clearly.
With a "bang" sound, when these cavalry surrounded them, there was a neat sound of "click", and the strangely shaped cavalry spears in the innermost circle of cavalrymen were put down violently and aimed directly at them.
The flickering array of spears showed how sharp these spears were. The cavalrymen in the second row took out their bows and arrows directly behind their backs, and pointed sharp arrows at them.
Although these wildlings also have a bow in their hands, the other weapons are wooden spears, and looking at the weapons on these cavalry, these wildlings themselves know very well that it will be difficult for them to kill these cavalry, or even kill one.
Those bows and arrows can instantly turn them into a bunch of hedgehogs.
Jon Snow vaguely felt that these cavalry seemed to have something to do with the black thing he pressed, he only pressed it tentatively, he didn't have much hope, but he didn't expect the other party to appear in front of him so quickly.
There was a crisp sound of horses' hooves, and the cavalry horses surrounding them immediately began to retreat, leaving a day passage in the middle, and two men in gorgeous armor walked in from the passage on horseback. When Jon Snow saw the fiery red warhorse, he was so surprised that he almost bit his tongue off.
This horse is amazing! This is definitely the best BMW!
"Free people, lay down your arms, I will not kill you. Walking in front of these savages, Zhao Chen spoke directly.
Yegoritte was stunned for a moment, and the other savages were also stunned for a moment, in their opinion, these cavalry that appeared must be those people in the Great Wall, because only those people have such neat armor and equipment, you must know that they savages often climb over the Great Wall to plunder, but they are not robbing food, but mainly iron and steel.
But the people inside the Wall never called them freemen, but savages. Not to mention that it's time to capture them, and even if they are caught, they will call them savages.
And now, the man on the horse calls them freedmen.
"Your name is Yergorit, you are the King of Bones, right?" Zhao Chen looked at the man who was covered in bones, and said with a strange expression, Nima, this name sounds like a lot, but in fact...... It's a lot of bones wrapped around his body, and his face is covered with a mask made of a man's skull, which is also called the King of Bones?
"If you don't put down your weapons, none of you will survive. Zhao Chen pointed to the people beside them and said.
"Free people have never been afraid to die in battle. Yveritte said in a deep voice.
Zhao Chen believes this, but if he can't even convince these people, let alone convince others?
"Aren't you afraid of dying in battle?" I believe, but what if it's a senseless death? How much of a threat do you think you can pose to my warriors?" Zhao Chen said lightly, pointing to the cavalry around him.
Looking at the heavily armed cavalry around them, and the spears in their hands, the things in their hands couldn't even reach each other, let alone kill people.
After a long time, Yegoret spoke, "You are what you say?"
"If I were going to kill you, and my cavalry would charge, none of you would survive. Zhao Chen nodded.
"Good. After saying this, Yveritte threw the bow and arrow in his hand to the ground, and the other wild men also threw the bow and arrow in their hands to the ground.
"Tie them up. Zhao Chen waved his hand.
Immediately, a dozen horsemen turned over and dismounted, and walked over to tie up all the savages. Then Zhao Chen turned to Jon Snow and took off the helmet on his head, Zhao Chen smiled and said, "Jon, Snow, we meet again." ”
"It's really you. Snow looked at Zhao Chen with a surprised face, and then looked at the cavalry around Zhao Chen.
"Yes, it's me. Zhao Chen nodded, "After you sent the signal, I came as soon as possible." ”
"Uh, thanks. Snow said thank you, and then introduced Zhao Chen to the severed palm Colin next to him, "Your Excellency, hello." Severed Palm Colin said hello to Zhao Chen.
Looking at the man in front of him, I have to say that the rest of the Night Watch Legion may be some old, weak, sick and disabled now, but a considerable number of them are definitely real men who keep their oaths! Although this legion has declined, their spirit is really not completely declining, Zhao Chen still clearly remembers the oath of the Night Watch Legion.
"The long night is coming, and I will keep watch from now on until I die. ”
"I will not take a wife, I will not have a back cover, I will not have children. ”
"I will not wear a crown, and I will not compete for honor. ”
"I will do my duty and die in my life. ”
"I am the sword in the darkness, the guard of the Wall. ”
"I am the flame against the cold, the light at dawn. ”
"Awaken the trumpet of the sleeper, the shield that guards the kingdom. ”
"I give my life and glory to the night watchman. ”
"Tonight, night and night. ”
Arguably the oldest organization in the world, the Night's Watch was founded to protect against unwanted spirits, and has a history of more than 8,000 years. Back then, the Seven Kingdoms sent excellent knights and supplies to the Night's Watch Legion every year to join the Night's Watch!
In its heyday, the Night's Watch had tens of thousands of soldiers, and that's not counting the horses, servants, and equipment, and the nobles of the north once regarded serving on the Great Wall as an honor.
Today, there were only about 300 members of the Night's Watch legion, and a significant number of them were peasants, those who could not afford to pay their debts, poachers, rapists, thieves, and bastards, with only a tiny fraction of them coming from the nobility.
With more than 300 people guarding the Great Wall of five or six hundred kilometers, you can imagine how weak this force is.
"Severed Palm Colin, I've heard of you, a man, come and give each of them a horse, including the freedmen, all of them go forward, and set up camp after five kilometers. Zhao Chen said hello to Colin before speaking directly.
"Yes, Your Majesty. When Yue Fei gave a military salute to Zhao Chen, and then went directly to convey the order, both Colin and Jon Snow's hearts jumped directly because of this title, Your Majesty! This word is not used indiscriminately, but they dare to guarantee that they have never seen someone like Zhao Chen, and they have never seen Zhao Chen.
However, Zhao Chen had already given the order, and now was not the time to talk about this, and soon the horses were brought over. Including these wild people, everyone got directly on their horses and quickly began to move forward.
Five kilometers is not far away, if it is walked by manpower, it is estimated that it will take a long time, but riding a horse, especially the war horse produced by this system under Zhao Chen, five kilometers is only a matter of dozens of minutes, this is still because these free people are placed on the back of the horse horizontally, and the horse has no way to jump.
After arriving at the place, Yue Fei immediately commanded the army to start camping, while Snow and the others were dumbfounded, because they didn't know where these supplies came from.
Such a huge tent, this is also very large to carry, but just now they didn't see any cavalry carrying these, it seems that their army is not pure cavalry?
When all the neat tents were set up, the huge tent belonging to Zhao Chen naturally stood up. When Snow and Colin had entered the tent, including the free folks, looking at the carpet on the ground and the luxurious decorations inside the tent, the cold wind was howling outside, but it was warm inside, and they didn't see where the brazier was.
Unknown lights illuminated the entire tent as if it were daylight, and when the group entered, it seemed out of place in this luxurious place.
"Sit. Zhao Chen smiled and pointed to a bunch of chairs next to him, "Untie them." ”
The soldiers who brought these people in immediately loosened the ties of these savages, but those soldiers did not go out, and the soldiers who stood in a circle on the edge of the tent, although these savages did not carry weapons, but who knows if they would attack immediately, even if Zhao Chen was not afraid, Yue Fei would not allow such a thing to happen.
The soldiers stood there as steel, staring at each other, and the wildlings followed Jon Snow and sat down with Colin with his severed palm.
After everyone sat down, Zhao Chen directly turned to Yue Fei and said, "General Yue, how many troops do you think we have to dispatch?"
"Your Majesty, after our reconnaissance and the camp tents of these freemen, their approximate population is between 100,000 and 120,000, and the number of soldiers who can fight is about 20,000, excluding the old and weak, women and children. However, because of the size of their camp, my opinion is to send 50,000 elite infantry, as well as 50,000 heavy cavalry, and 20,000 light cavalry. Yue Fei said in a deep voice.
Yue Fei and Zhao Chen's words made the dozen or so savages over there instantly stir, and with a "boom", the dozen or so soldiers standing behind them directly unsheathed their long swords. (To be continued.) )
