The huge white cross pattern is very visible in the sky, attracting the attention of many people. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Duke Li'an, who had taken the healing elixir, had just recovered a little, and with the help of General Brian, he mounted his horse and looked up to see this striking cross pattern in the dark sky.

A bad premonition suddenly rose in the Duke's heart, and he quickly used his brain to think about it.

"What does this pattern represent, the whole army attacking? No, this time the main force on the eldest princess's side is the Silver Wing Knights, even if they send signals, they shouldn't use the signals of the church, not to mention that the Silver Wing Knights have already launched an attack, so there is no need to do this kind of stupid thing to signal after the attack is launched. ”

Lord Duke frowned, and thought again, "In other words, this must be a signal from the church, or that kid from Leo!" Now that Leo has fled back to the Knights, it is unlikely that this signal will notify those who are in their position. In other words, the person who is signaling - lurking in the ranks of our Scarlet Knights right now! ”

A man who is still lurking in the ranks of the Scarlet Knights? Could it be that this man's purpose is-

Duke Lian took a deep breath, suddenly understood something, and shouted loudly to General Brian, who had just mounted his horse beside him: "What about His Royal Highness the Grand Prince? ”

General Bryan was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously pointed back: "Isn't His Royal Highness the Great Prince there-"

General Brian's words suddenly stopped.

Before the battle began, General Brian clearly remembered that the Grand Prince Emmanuel was in the direction of his finger, but at this moment, Emmanuel and his guards had disappeared from General Brian's sight.

"Hell!" General Brian's heart sank, and his face immediately became extremely ugly, and he suddenly felt the urge to slap himself a few times.

You must know that this night of life and death is for the eldest prince Emmanuel to ascend the throne, and then everyone can enjoy the glory and wealth that will inevitably come, but if Emmanuel disappears or even dies, then all this will be completely in vain!

Duke Lean took a deep breath and immediately made a decision: "General Brian, I order you to immediately go and find the traces of His Royal Highness the Grand Prince, once you find His Royal Highness, then you must protect him before the battle is over!" Do you understand? ”

General Bryan gave Duke Lean a deep look, and then suddenly gave a military salute and said loudly: "The last general obeys!" After speaking, he didn't talk nonsense, and directly led his two hundred personal guards to fly away.

The generals of the Scarlet Knights next to them looked at each other, and then they all gave a military salute to Duke Li'an, and said loudly: "Please give the marshal the order to resist the enemy!" ”

A flush of excitement suddenly appeared on Duke Li'an's pale face, and from this moment on, the command of more than 20,000 soldiers of the Scarlet Knights finally fell into the hands of Duke Li'an!

Regardless of the weakness of his body, the Duke pulled out the long sword at his waist with a choked sound, and the tip of the sword pointed directly at the sky: "Pass my military orders, blow the trumpet to meet the enemy!" ”

"Woo-woo-" The loud sound of the horn sounded from the ranks of the Scarlet Knights, resounding throughout the sky.

Orders began to be issued from the mouth of Duke Lean, and then were quickly issued by the heralds of the Scarlet Knights.

The Scarlet Knights, who had been a little flustered by Leo and Daisy's fight, began to quickly regroup after hearing the sound of the horn.

At the front of the Scarlet Knights' military array, a diamond-shaped shield more than a person high was erected, lined up into a shield defense line hundreds of meters wide, and in the gaps in the shield there were also sharp spears, which looked like sharp thorns sticking out of the hedgehog's back, lined up in front of thousands of knights of the Silver Wing Knights.

If the cavalry of the Silver Wing Knights choose to directly attack the shield array, then the first wave of knights will definitely crash directly into these spears and be directly pierced!

Not only that, but the two thousand archers had already gathered at the rear of the shield array, and then pulled their bowstrings as fast as they could.

After doing all this, the most vanguard cavalry unit of the Silver Wing Knights was already less than two hundred meters away from the shield array!

The officer commanding the archers was shouting: "All of them, ready to throw at a forty-five degree angle!" Three, two, one, shoot! ”

"Whoosh!" Two thousand arrows flew into the sky like a dense black cloud, crossed the Scarlet Knights' infantry shield array in front of them, and fell towards the cavalry brigade of the Silver Wing Knights.

The screams instantly resounded among the cavalry of the Knights of the Winged Knights, although the arrows did not hit the knights at the front of the Knights due to the angle, but the knights who were a little behind were killed, and at least hundreds of knights were either hit by the arrows after this round of bows and arrows, or were shot by the bows and arrows on their mounts and fell off their horses.

And this was not the end, the second and third rounds of the rain of arrows came equally quickly, again knocking down more than a hundred knights.

Although these three rounds of arrow salvos only caused casualties of less than three hundred knights, which was harmless to the Silver Wing Knights at this moment, the fall of these knights not only slowed down the charge of the entire cavalry formation slightly, but also created a temporary vacuum, temporarily isolating the hundreds of knights rushing in front from the cavalry brigade behind them.

"Very good." Duke Li'an saw all this, couldn't help but nod slightly, and then issued the next order: "Pass my order, let the cavalry brigade prepare, once my order is issued, the cavalry brigade must launch a countercharge as soon as possible!" ”

"Yes, Marshal!" A herald immediately took the order.

Up to now, the quality of the soldiers of the Scarlet Knights has made Duke Lian very satisfied.

Whether it is the speed of regrouping into formation, or the strength of resolute execution after receiving orders, as well as the quality shown in battle, it proves that General Bryan is indeed a good soldier, and the Scarlet Knights are indeed worthy of being one of the top knights in the empire and even the continent.

It is precisely because of such effective performance of the soldiers of the Scarlet Knights that Duke Li'an's heart finally ignited the hope of victory at this moment.

Duke Lean's battle plan is actually very simple, mainly carried out in three steps.

The first step was to use a shield array of 8,000 shieldmen and pikemen to slow down the charge of the Knights of the Blade.

The second step is to have the 2,000 archers temporarily separate the Silverwing's vanguard and cavalry brigade with three salvos in a short period of time, so as to reduce the pressure on the shield array at the front, so that the shield array will face the first and strongest round of charge less powerful, which can also have the effect of delaying the charge speed of the Silverwing Knights' brigade.

The third step is when the charging speed of the knight brigade of the Knights of the Knights of the Blade is completely slowed down or even stopped, thousands of knights of the Knights of the Scarlet Knights will launch a counter-charge, crushing the knights of the Knights of the Knights of the Silverwing Knights in one fell swoop, and then take advantage of the situation to cover up and kill and win in one fell swoop!

In the eyes of Duke Li'an, the other party's commander completely abandoned the infantry and directly chose to charge the battle head-on with nearly 10,000 light cavalry, which was simply a layman and stupid!

The first marshal of the continent looked at the cavalry brigade of the Silver Wing Knights who came like a tsunami, and silently recited a sentence in his heart: "On the battlefield, any stupidity will pay a heavy price!" ”
