Chapter 383: A Pyrrhic Victory

"Bang dang!"

There was a sound of kicking on the door, and the door of the house in the center of the village was kicked open from the inside, and the fifty knights of the inner house poured out from it like a tide.

"Quick! Grab it! ”

Sir Yasuo shouted, drew his sword from his waist, and pointed at the mysterious knight who was in the bullpen.

Twenty-five knights of the Inner House immediately rushed towards the knight at the order of Sir Yasuo.

The other twenty-five knights rushed to the stables with quick movements, where were the horses they had hidden to prevent being discovered by the mysterious knights.

Twenty-five men were on the ground to capture them, while the other twenty-five were on horseback, which was a very safe arrangement, and Sir Yasuo, who had been in many battles on the battlefield, was very experienced.

The knight had fled early, and as early as the knights of the Inner House kicked open the door, he was keenly aware of the movement, and with a dodge he rolled out of the low fence of the cattle and sheepfold and ran out of the village.

The twenty-five knights of the Inner Mansion who were captured on the ground were not wearing the armor that they were equipped with when they rode on war horses in regular combat, but they had already untied most of the armor on their bodies, and there was only a layer of cuirass and arm armor in addition to the inner layer of chain mail.

In this way, they were able to move faster than the mysterious knight, and even if he moved quickly, he did not lose sight.

And the twenty-five knights of the Inner Mansion who went to ride horses were still wearing the same armor, and those with war horses helped them not need to lose weight by removing their armor at all.

However, before the knights of the Inner Mansion on their horses could catch up with the mysterious knight, the mysterious knight quickly jumped into a forest near the village.

It is hard to imagine that a mysterious knight wearing heavy armor can easily navigate through the terrain like the dense forest without being affected in the slightest.

"Damn it!"

A knight of the Inner Mansion on a war horse was outside the dense forest, watching the mysterious knight with an agile body angrily throw the gold-rimmed helmet on his head to the ground.

The knights of the inner province on the horses could not enter the dense forest to fight, the dense forest would make the horses lose their speed, not to mention, the fine branches did not know when the knights would be swept off the horses.

What a shame it was that the target of their fifty men had escaped in front of them, but they were the most elite knights of the Inner Mansion under the Earl, enjoying the best treatment, the best equipment, and the best training.

But in such a situation, the capture of a full fifty knights of the Inner Mansion failed like this, if the other Iron Cross Knights knew, or other soldiers knew, the knights of the Inner House would definitely lose their prestige and lose face in front of the Earl.

Sir Yasuo looked at the mysterious knight who had fled into the forest, gritted his teeth, and said to the knights on foot behind him, "Enter the forest!" Let's keep chasing! ”

Sir Yasuo's order was exactly what the knights meant, and in their opinion, a full twenty-five, such a number, even if they were not familiar with jungle warfare, would not be escaped by the enemy, and if they were allowed to escape, they would definitely lose their glory if they valued honor.

In this way, the knights of the Inner House drew their swords, crossed their shields across their chests, and walked into the forest in a cautious formation.

The forest at night was full of everything, and the sound of poisonous snakes spitting letters on the treetops, the chirping of various insects lying on the leaves, and the occasional howl of wolves and tigers in the depths of the dense forest also alarmed the knights.

When they arrived in the forest, they had already lost the trace of the mysterious knight, but the knight had left footprints on the humus layer of the forest, so that the knights of the Inner House did not lose the trace of the mysterious knight.

At this moment, the depths of the forest seemed to suddenly become quiet, and then a scream suddenly rang out, and the two knights of the inner palace at the back of the line both fell to the ground.

But the strange figure quickly fled to another place like a vigorous monkey, and then gradually disappeared into the deep forest.

"Damn it! Let him run away! ”

Sir Rehabilitation shouted furiously, "It was already very uncomfortable to fight in the dense forest, which they were not familiar with, and now even the enemy thought that you had not caught it, so you lost two comrades.

"My lord, they are fine, they were just hit on the head by the enemy's light blunt object, but because we have the protection of the helmet and a cushion layer, they are not dead or seriously injured, they are just stunned by the force!"

A knight of the Inner House, after inspecting the injuries of the two men, came to Sir Yasuo's side to report.

Sir Yasuo nodded, and then looked overhead, both of them had helmets due to the pursuit of defense, and the knights on the battlefield only needed to charge directly ahead, so the peephole of the helmet was not so large, so the vision was a little blocked.

In this way, the mysterious knight kept jumping down from the tree to attack the knights of the Inner Palace, and seven of the Inner Knights were also unconscious under the blow of the mysterious knight.

However, the knights of the Inner Mansion also saw the mysterious knight's movements and plans, and there was some room for resistance to his attacks.

By the last two attacks, the mysterious knight didn't even succeed alone, but was repelled by the knights of the Inner Palace.

In this way, the two sides confronted each other in this place for nearly half a night, and neither side dared to make a move easily.

And as long as that mysterious knight dares to jump off the trunk and escape, he will definitely face the strict pursuit of the knights of the inner house.

Therefore, the best and only way for him to fight back the knight of the inner palace is to fight back.

After a few hours of confrontation, there were already a few knights in the inner palace who couldn't hold it anymore, after all, they had been running for so long and had to be wary of the enemy's sneak attack, so they looked very tired.

The mysterious knight seized this opportunity and jumped down from the tree, preparing to carry out a sneak attack on the knights of the Inner Palace.

He did succeed, and three knights were knocked to the ground by him from the moment he jumped to the time he landed, but just as he was about to attack the next knight of the Inner Palace, an unexpected accident suddenly happened.

An inner knight suddenly lowered his sword and shield and hugged the mysterious knight suddenly, and in anger, he immediately slammed the light warhammer in his hand into his back.

The armor on the back of the knights of the Inner House has some dead ends, because their breastplates and chain mail must be fixed with belts behind their backs, and there are some loopholes at will.

But even so, the knight of the inner house still did not let go, and the other knights of the inner house flocked to the mysterious knight's side, ready to arrest him.
