Chapter 408: The Name of the Guilty Soldier
The Knights of the Iron Cross are like invincible gods of war, armed with spears and swords, constantly slashing their enemies.
Their rifles are four meters long, allowing them to kill their enemies before they even reach them.
The battle was exactly like this, the Knights of the Iron Cross stabbed the enemy with their rifles, and of course, many of the enemies used their round shields to defend against the attacks of the spears, but even so, they practiced and retreated under the tremendous impact.
And then in this way, he lost his precious life under the merciless hooves of the horse.
The Norweeds were brave at first, and they turned to the Iron Cross Knights, trying to fight back against the Iron Cross Knights with their battle axes and shields.
But how could the Knights of the Iron Cross give them a chance, relying on the speed and impact of their horses, and their long spears, they can always easily defuse the enemy's attack and kill it.
For the pride of their hearts, they rushed left and right, the long swords in their hands kept chopping, and the horses under their crotches also kept hitting the enemy's soldiers, and in this way, they caused considerable casualties to the enemy.
The same goes for the other knights, who may not be as well equipped and trained as the knights of the Inner House, but that's not something the Norvids can stop.
As a result, the already loose formation of the Norweed people was easily dispersed.
As time passed, the casualties inflicted on them by the knights increased, and their morale began to crumble.
Although the morale of the Norwedds has always been relatively strong, their morale drops very quickly in the face of an enemy who cannot do any damage at all.
In this way, deserters began to appear among the Norweeds, desperately trying to get out of the battle sequence and out of this cruel hell on earth.
However, most of them were unable to escape, and in the chaos they kept pushing and shoving, and then were ruthlessly crushed by the Iron Cross Knights.
The battle was very brutal, although the knights of the Iron Cross also used sharp weapons, but the corpses of the enemies on the ground were difficult to play well, most of them were trampled into meat by the roaring hooves of the horses, and they could not even see the silhouette of a person, and they could even make pies.
"Run! O god Terra! They are evil spirits! They're demons that can't be killed! ”
The morale of the Norweed people was greatly damaged, and they found that even if they were lucky enough to defeat the enemy, they could not penetrate the thick and strong armor of the opponent.
They couldn't even split the horse armor on their horses with a battle axe.
Of course, this is just an exaggeration, and the Iron Cross Knights did fall from their horses when their horses were struck by the enemy's tomahawks, and then died tragically.
Their death was not even because of the enemy, but from the hooves of the horses of their comrades behind them.
They had the same fate as the Norwids on the ground, all trampled to pulp by the dense charge of the horses, the only difference being that the Iron Cross Knights had more unshapen armor on their bodies.
However, their losses were not much, after all, those Norweids only used some luck and skill to kill the knights' horses.
If not, how could even these Norwidians, who lacked long weapons, kill the Knights of the Iron Cross?
In this way, the Norweed people finally collapsed after huge casualties, crying and wailing, desperately trying to escape from this terrible hell on earth.
After completely defeating them, the light cavalry began to fight, and a whole brigade of four hundred light cavalry was dispersed in this way, and pursued the Norvids in groups of three or five.
"Saved!"
"Victory! Banzai! ”
There was a cheer and laughter among the sinners.
Baron Yasuo, the patron of the knights of the Inner Palace, rode up to the leader of the sinners on his horse and nodded.
The leader of the sinners took off his helmet and said to Baron Yasuo, "Thank you for your rescue, my lord, and your kindness to me will never be forgotten!" ”
Baron Yasuo said, "Don't do that, I'm not trying to save you, I'm just following the decision of my lord, and now my lord wants to see you!" ”
Barlow, the leader of the sinners, was stunned for a moment, and then said, "Okay lord, I'll go with you now!" ”
"Guilty soldiers, rest in place, and not a single spoil on the ground is allowed to be touched, it belongs to our brother troops!"
Barlow, the leader of the sinners, said to the surviving sinners that the discipline of the sin soldiers was really good, and they obeyed Barlow's orders, and sat down on the spot, either to deal with their injuries, or to sit on the spot and whisper to their companions, pouring out the joy of rebirth.
Barlow, the leader of the sinners, walked to the center of the troops, and the grinning, rather majestic iron cross, gold-rimmed banner fluttered in the sky.
The triangular iron cross flags on the spears of the Iron Cross Knights were also fluttering with the cold wind, and those Iron Cross Knights who had fought for the first time had already returned to the queue, and the speed was quite fast.
Looking at the huge number of majestic Iron Cross knights around him, Barlow couldn't help but be a little shocked, in his opinion, the invincible elite knights he had seen at the beginning were comparable to this.
You know, it was the bloody emperor of the Rodland Empire who defeated the elector, seized the position of emperor, and changed the succession to the throne to the lion knights on which the family depended on hereditary.
And these knights in front of him could be compared with the top knights in the mainland, which made him have to be surprised.
He saw a man dressed in rich armor and wearing an ornate bottle helmet with a cross pattern on his head.
He removed his helmet, revealing the majestic and handsome face underneath.
"You're the leader of this army?" William asked slowly.
"Yes, my lord, my name is Barlow, and we are the soldiers of sin, the army of atonement, who have come here to wash away the sins of our bodies!"
"Ah, I see, but what iniquity is there in you? I'm curious! ”
William asked, calling himself a sinner for no reason, of course he was curious.
The leader of the sin soldiers, Barlow, hesitated slightly, but then he said, "Since you want to know, then I will tell you!" ”
"I used to be the deputy commander of the Third Legion of the Lordland Empire, and I commanded many battles, but when the current Bloody Emperor Greine defeated the other electors, he wanted to change the law of succession to the throne and turn it into a family hereditary system!"
"As an army that belongs to the Empire and guards the Emperor, we must listen to the orders of several other Electors and thwart the actions of the Bloody Emperor."
"Although I am not against Greine, the group of royalists, that is, Greine's henchmen, they still persecuted the commander of our Third Legion, Count Sagre, to death, and I left the Third Legion to avoid disaster!"
"I led to the defeat of the Third Legion by deserting my post without permission, and the addition of this legion made Greine like a tiger with wings, and completely turned the law of inheritance into hereditary!"
