Chapter 653: The Death of the Gobi
At this moment, the land of the kingdom of Arisera is in ruins, and the corpses of a large number of people and livestock and horses have been violently corpsed in the wilderness.
Then it was buried by the wind and sand on the Gobi Desert, because there were not enough trees on the Gobi Desert, the wind kept howling, and the dust and sand on the ground were also blown up by the wind, making the visibility here extremely low.
The wind and sand blew on the face and beat people's faces with a faint pain, and they had to learn from the Piard people to keep veils or scarves on their faces to prevent the wind and sand from attacking.
A cavalry corps of about twenty people rode tall horses under the crotch, wearing fine armor and veils on their faces, and fought the enemy in the wind and sand.
Their enemy was also a cavalry of Piars, somewhat outnumbered, numbering about thirty men.
Judging by the scars on their bodies and the wear and tear of their swords, their battle had been going on for a while, and everyone was out of breath on their horses, and the oxygen content in the wind and sand was not high, and wearing masks made it even more difficult for them to breathe.
Almost every one of them had wounds, and the top of the fine armor was also broken one after another, and under the armor was the armor that was still bleeding blood.
"Warriors! We are the warriors of the kingdom of Arisrah! We are the Father's people, we guard the Son's tomb and protect our people from the infidels! ”
"Them! The blood-drinking, disrespectful pagans of the Holy Father are delusional in their attempt to reclaim the tomb of the Son! As the most devout believers of the Holy Father, we do not think that it is allowed! ”
"Defend the kingdom! Defend the Holy Sepulchre! A knight in a smock and armor different from that of the other soldiers shouted.
He is a knight and the leader of this cavalry team, and their mission this time is to find out the whereabouts and movements of the enemy army, but unexpectedly, they have just finished exploring the enemy's movements and have not had time to return, and they were discovered by the enemy's larger rangers.
They had to fight the enemy in a bitter battle, but fortunately, the kingdom of Arisera endured a long battle, and honed a large number of strong soldiers, all of whom were very skilled in battle.
So in the face of a larger number of enemies, they did not fall into the disadvantage at all, and fought frantically with the enemy.
However, with the passage of time, their physical strength declined rapidly, and the battle in the wind and sand was originally a difficult battle.
The battle lasted an hour, with heavy casualties on both sides.
Then, there is the situation that we just saw.
"Rush! In the name of the Father and the Son! For the kingdom of Arisella! ”
The knight shouted, leading the remaining twenty or so cavalry to charge the enemy.
Their spears had long since been broken, and they could only fight the enemy with their long swords, which had already been notched.
The cavalry only followed behind the knights, and they were all powerful soldiers who had rolled on the battlefield and had been honed by the sea of corpses and blood.
They may not be very well armed, but they have even more combat experience than the battle-battled royal infantry.
After all, the Piyard offensive has been going on for several years, and even the most cowardly soldiers, as long as they can survive on the battlefield, they are all veterans, elite veterans.
No matter what era the veteran is in, it is a rare and most valuable resource in the army, and the veteran leads the new soldier, as long as there are 1,000 veterans, the army of 5,000 people can be expanded in an instant.
At the same time, these veterans are also the psychological support of the recruits on the battlefield, and with the presence of these veterans, the fear and confusion in the hearts of the recruits will be reduced a lot.
They fought fiercely against the enemy, but unfortunately, they were still outnumbered.
One by one, they died, leaving the back of their usually intimate war horses, not knowing that their master had been killed, and still running around on the battlefield, fighting side by side with their master who no longer existed on their back.
The sound of blades clashing, the sound of swords slicing through flesh and muscles, and the tooth-aching sound of broken bones all mingled.
In the end, only the knight and the three cavalrymen around him remained.
And the remaining enemy is more than a dozen people.
Such casualties were terrifying, their casualties had already exceeded eighty percent, but they still did not collapse.
Whether it is the cavalry of the Piars or the troops of the kingdom of Arisla, they are all fighting against the enemy.
They are all veterans who have survived the battlefield, and everyone knows that at this time, which side cannot bear to flee first, then what awaits them is definitely a one-sided slaughter.
At the end of this round of fighting, the knight and the three cavalrymen beside him were all out of breath, and the Pial cavalry in front of them was also very tired.
But their morale was still relatively high, because they knew that there were only four enemies left in front of them, and there were more than ten people left on their own side.
With victory in sight, they no longer take the sorrow of losing their companions to heart.
The knight of the Kingdom of Arisrah was already wearing a smock on his body, and even a large part of it had been torn.
The pattern on it was also stained with blood, and it was already impossible to see clearly.
The knight's chest heaved violently, the helmet on his head had been knocked down by the enemy's sword, his light brown hair was stuck to his forehead with sweat, and even his face had several tiny wounds, which were covered with blood, and it was impossible to distinguish whether it was the blood of the enemy or his own.
"Surrender!" The leader of the Piard cavalry said to them in a stiff Lohr language.
His persuasion was still more sincere, after all, in the battle with them, the Pial cavalry had lost a large number of soldiers.
He didn't want the remaining soldiers to lose a few more in battle, and it was his best choice to persuade the other party to surrender.
However, this knight is very backbone, he will definitely not surrender to a pagan, let alone near the Holy Sepulchre where the Holy Son is buried, if he surrenders here, it will undoubtedly be an insult to the Holy Son.
So, the answer to Commander Pial was only a spit out.
"Phew!" A mouthful of saliva with human blood was spat out by the knight, and he looked at the Piard commander in front of him with contempt.
He removed the mask from his face, exposing his entire face to the wind and sand, as did the three cavalrymen behind him.
The knight raised the mangled sword in his hand, and with all his strength, he cried out heartbreakingly, "For the Holy Father! For the sake of the Son! For the kingdom! We will not give in to the infidels! Warriors of Arisrah! Charge!!! ”
He shouted hoarsely, the great arteries in his neck bulging high with such force that they all bulged high.
With that, he rushed to the enemy first.
The three horsemen behind him followed, their mouths shouting the words of the Father, the Son and the Kingdom, brandishing their swords and charging as they waved.
