After all, they had no way back, and when they fought on the city walls before, it was because they knew that there was still the main fortress behind them to guard.

So when they saw the brutality and good fighting of the royal infantry, they suddenly collapsed and wanted to defend the main fort.

But this time they knew very well that they had no way back, and if they failed, they and the others would definitely usher in a brutal massacre.

The nobles may have survived, but these soldiers, in the final analysis, were still a group of commoners or serfs, and some nobles might choose to keep them and sell them to slave traders, but most of them would still choose to kill those who had caused them great losses.

Therefore, in order to survive, everyone is fighting in a neat and desperate manner, even if they can't help the armor on the royal infantry, they are still fearless to cut the weapons in their hands on the enemy's body.

If they can't do it once, they will do it a second time, and if one person can't do it, then two people, and under their fierce attacks that are not afraid of death, the royal infantry in extremely fine armor finally began to suffer casualties.

Basically, every wounded or dead royal infantry has basically been hit more than a dozen times or even dozens of times, and they have been hit in the same place, and where the armor loses its effect, of course they will also suffer casualties.

Charlemagne looked at the situation in the field, and his heart was slightly surprised, and in addition to these soldiers, Baron Avala's knights were also attacking the royal infantry.

Their attacks were much sharper than those of ordinary soldiers, and they could usually inflict fatal wounds or outright kills on royal infantry in just a few blows.

After all, their strength and skill are not at all comparable to those ordinary soldiers.

Fortunately, there were not many of these knights, and Baron Avala had sent five people to ask for help, and now he could have at most a dozen knights by his side.

Charlemagne saw that the enemy knights were hindering the development of the battle, and said to Homan behind him: "Go and let the knights of the Iron Cross put on their armor, they may have opponents!" ”

The knights of the Iron Cross, who had received the order, quickly made all the preparations, three layers of the finest iron armor, the outer part was covered with this plate chest armor, and the hands and feet also had plate gauntlet leg armor, which was equivalent to wearing three and a half layers of fine iron armor on their bodies.

In addition, they were also wearing a layer of cloth on the inside, covered with a layer of silk on the outside, and there was a cotton armor on the outside of the silk, and there was a leather armor on the outside of the cotton armor, and the leather armor was the three and a half layers of terrifying iron armor.

With such protection, it is a big question whether the enemy knights will be able to break through their defenses, let alone fight head-on.

As soon as the Knights of the Iron Cross appeared, they would definitely break the morale of the enemy, and Charlemagne's main fight was this idea.

Of course, this armor is not light, the weight of the three-layer iron armor is more than forty-five kilograms, and the armor lined with it is also two or three kilograms, plus three kilograms of one-handed knight's sword and shield, which is simply an extremely terrifying burden.

This is a piece of equipment on a war horse, the war horses of the Iron Cross knights are excellent war horses from the two counties of the grassland, which can be called the most in the mainland, even if they wear the same heavy horse armor, they can still do it with the knights charging back and forth in a squad.

But wearing such heavy armor on the knights' bodies was really a bit of a burden for them.

Even if they had to wear this armor to train on weekdays, then after dozens of minutes of fighting, I am afraid that they would all be exhausted.

The deterrent power of these knights is really incomparable, when this group of steel monsters appeared in front of the enemy, those enemies who frantically resisted were stunned, such a terrifying knight they had never heard of.

This is completely beyond their imagination, and there has never been such an army in their worldview.

When these hard-nosed monsters appeared in front of the enemy, the scene froze, as if the air had stood still.

At this time, William was browsing the document in front of him in his study, and when he saw that the document was sent by carrier pigeons instead of the intelligence officer himself, he knew in his heart that something must have happened.

When he opened the letter, he checked the fire paint on the seal and made sure that there were no accidents, and then began to read it.

It was a message from the intelligence officer at Cerrienburg, who told William everything that had happened to Charlemagne.

After all, the Dark Dagger is a powerful intelligence organization that has been developed for so many years, and any information from the surrounding countries can basically be known by William.

So sending intelligence under the blockade is nothing to the intelligence officers of the Dark Dagger.

Originally, they would have liked to have gotten the news to Archduke Wallace, but Archduke Wallace did not have any intelligence officers installed by William.

After all, it was his father's domain, and if Fort Cerrienne hadn't become Charlemagne's territory, he wouldn't have planted a spy here.

But he didn't expect his filial piety to turn into a move to make Charlemagne more difficult at this moment.

William is very worried about Charlemagne, after all, he has cultivated Charlemagne for so many years, if something happens to him, where can he find such a perfect heir?

For William, Charlemagne is not only a favorite son, but also the Kingdom of Lorique, the successor of the Wallace family of Lorique, and the hope of a series of nobles.

If something happened to him, William couldn't imagine how sad Wella would be and what terrible chaos would be in the country.

Although the relationship between his sons is very good, even he is not sure whether he will turn against each other after Charlemagne's accident, just to compete for this position.

But he didn't have anything to do at the moment, the Grand Duchy of Krislav was more than a thousand kilometers away from the Kingdom of Lorik, and it would take nearly a month for William to reach it even if he sent troops.

And by that time, I'm afraid it's too late, so the only thing William can do at the moment is to pray to the Holy Father for Charlemagne.

He didn't tell Wella about this, and if Wella knew the news, he didn't know what she would be worried about.

Although William knew in his heart that it was absolutely right to let Charlemagne go through this matter, he still had some regrets in his heart.

He said to Tus in front of him: "Send a large number of intelligence agents to Cerrienburg, and I must find out where this mysterious force comes from!" ”

Hearing this, Tous's expression suddenly froze, William had not shown such a serious and angry expression for a long time, which reminded him of His Majesty, who was still very young back then.

Now Tus is thirty-nine years old, and next year he will be forty years old, and he is about to be called old, when he followed William, he was still a young boy, but unfortunately the years are not forgiving, even William has become an uncle, let alone him.

After receiving William's orders, Tus stepped down and quickly began to arrange, confident that he would be able to pull out the force in a short time.
