A few hours later.

Frank, who had prayed, rode on his horse and marched along the road with his twelve members of the squad towards the north.

Around him was the rest of the dense Silver Cross mixed regiment, both infantry and cavalry. The captain of the regiment, who was in silver armor, was leading the guards to open the way at the front, and the captain Heyman, whom he hated, was not far from the front.

Frank looked at Heyman's back and blinked, thinking about how to stay away from the other party, so as not to let the other party notice him and trouble him.

Who knew that the other party turned his head sensitively, glared at him on horseback, and reprimanded him skillfully: "Frank Dyce, what's the matter with you! Why is a cavalry squad leader so slow, and he is about to fall behind the whole team, which is worse than the rest of the infantry squad, what are you eating? Is it caused by eating up the horse's fodder and making the horses hungry?"

As the other party spoke, the fat on his neck shook with a piece, looking funny and hateful.

No, you eat pig feed, that's why you grew like a pig...... Frank sneered, but he didn't dare to do this at all, and said with a smile: "Captain, how can I eat horse feed, I'm not slowing down because I'm a little late." ”

"You're not cowardly, are you?" Captain Hayman rolled his eyes.

You're just scared, I'm just worried that there will be a small probability of something bad happening, so I led the team to walk in the second half of the big team, and it was easy to deal with danger if there was a danger...... Frank said in his heart, but his mouth explained: "Captain, how can I be cowardly? Even if I fight, I can't show it now." After all, we haven't reached the border of the Limestone Territory yet, and we're still a long way from that sarin - the enemy can't see it, so how can we be cowardly? ”

"Hmph, I'm too lazy to argue with you, just if what you say makes sense. Captain said, "But even so, your team's performance can't be said to be good, it seems that there is a reason for not enough training in peacetime." It's also to blame me for being too busy, and when I have time, I must practice your team well, and I'm ashamed that every time I set off in the province, I'm so backward. ”

"Yes, yes. Frank replied again and again, his face full of "sincerity", "When this war is won, our squad will train well under the guidance of you, the captain." ”

"Well, just remember. Captain Hayman said, halfway through his words, when he suddenly seemed to hear something, and turned his head to look ahead.

I saw that the regimental commander who had opened the way at the front had stopped moving forward, and pressed one hand on the long sword at his waist.

This is?

glanced around a little puzzled, and asked to himself, "What's the matter?"

"Click!"

As soon as's words fell, there was a dense sound of horses' hooves all around, approaching quickly.

"Brush!"

The head of the silver armor suddenly drew his long sword and shouted: "Enemy attack, prepare for battle!"

Frank: "......"

His face turned white in an instant, and he really wanted to give him two big mouths - he shouldn't have talked like that just now - he had had a bad luck lesson of talking nonsense several times before, why couldn't he remember it!

......

Meanwhile.

Reef Fort, City Lord's Mansion, Command Room.

In the room, a staff officer in military uniform stood upright, holding a few pieces of paper in his hand, reading the contents solemnly.

Sauron Bonaparte, the god of war, wielded the Alliance's most powerful being, sat on a chair next to him, one hand propped up his chin, staring at the air in front of him. It looks like it's lost in thought, motionless, like a sculpture.

Voices echoed through the room.

"General, according to the information we have gathered, after the incident, the man quickly left the city, headed straight west, out of sight, and should now return to Shalin. However, the reconnaissance posts on our border have found nothing, so ...... It is not excluded that the other party may remain in the territory......"

"As of today, the new court structure has been formed, which is managed by an 'emergency council', which includes many members of the royal family, and some ministers who control real power, and in addition to discussing the choice of the new emperor, they are also discussing how to punish that person, after all, that person did the thing in full view of everyone, and the influence ...... It's terrible.

However, the 'emergency council' did not have many troops in hand, and it also had to consider the security problem in the territory, so it did not send many people, but more to order us, as well as the rest of the garrisons in overseas territories and special garrison areas, to attack Sharin......"

"Under the order of the 'Emergency Council', except for the direct army of our reef fort to remain unmoved without your order, the rest of the garrisons in the foreign territories and special garrison areas have been dispatched one after another, approaching the sarin. According to the general staff's estimates, these garrisons have now formed a semi-encirclement situation against Shalin, giving Shalin a certain amount of pressure. Not surprisingly, sarin would have taken defensive measures and made contact with the garrison near the border, and the result was ...... Not so easy to determine ......"

Hearing this, the motionless Sauron seemed to think of something, and suddenly pulled the corners of his mouth and chuckled.

"Huh?" The staff officer who read the intelligence couldn't help but be stunned when he saw it, "General, you ......"

......

Limestone Territory.

"Enemy attack!"

"Enemy attack—"

On the way, the head of the Silver Cross Mixed Regiment yelled.

At this time, the sound of approaching horses' hooves had already sounded, and a large number of figures clearly appeared in the field of vision, and they saw that it was five hundred-man cavalry teams. Each of them was dressed in black armor, their faces covered under the masks, their eyes smeared with brown glass, and no part of their bodies exposed.

This is exactly what Shalin has known for his long-famous black horseman, who approached silently and quickly.

When the head of the Silver Cross Mixed Regiment saw it, his hands trembled a little, on the one hand, he was shocked, and on the other hand, he was surprised. He really didn't expect to meet the Black Rider here, after all, this had not yet reached the border of Sharin, and he was still in the Grey Eye Territory. He really didn't expect that Shalin didn't defend as he guessed, but took the initiative to attack.

"Whew-"

Taking a deep breath, the commander of the Silver Cross Mixed Regiment forcibly calmed down and gave a loud order: "The whole regiment is ready for battle, the infantry is scattered to the two flanks, the cavalry is assembled in the middle army, listen to my orders and prepare to charge!"

When the order was given, the entire Silver Cross mixed group moved quickly, and under the crisis of life and death, it was extremely efficient, trying to gather the strength of the whole group to resist the attack of the black cavalry.

Speaking of which, after all, there are more than a thousand people in one of their regiments, while the Black Cavalry only has a brigade of five hundred people, that is, five hundred people.

The ratio of people is two to one, and they have an absolute advantage in this regard.

That's what many young recruits think.

And then there's the moment when reality teaches them to be human.

The infantry on both flanks had just assembled into a defensive formation, and the cavalry was preparing to charge under the leadership of the regimental commander, when a sharp sound of "boom" sounded.

I saw that one of the approaching cavalry brigades suddenly reached back, drew the javelins they were carrying, followed the horse's speed on the horse's back, and threw it with strength.

"Whoa—"

The screech pierced the eardrums, the javelin whistled through the air, and the surface of the javelin lit up with a dangerous and beautiful sheen, falling like lightning and hitting with precision.

"Poof!"

"Puff puff!"

The head of the Silver Cross Mixed Formation Regiment, who was standing at the front, was instantly pierced through his body and died on the spot. The guards who guarded the regimental commander also followed in the footsteps, and before they could even resist, they were killed by javelins, and some of them were crucified to the ground together with their horses.

Before they could make contact, the entire Silver Cross Mixed Regiment was dealt a heavy blow, losing almost a tenth of its strength, and it was the most elite force.

The rest of the Silver Cross Mixed Formation Group was stunned for a moment, and in a daze, they saw the black rider in their field of vision getting closer and closer, and the armor on their bodies lit up with a flame-like glow, like a demon crawling out of the abyss, waving a long sword and rushing forward with a strong murderous aura.

Fifty meters, thirty meters, ten meters.

"Bang!"

The Black Cavalry was the vanguard of a hundred-man brigade and successfully collided with the Silver Cross Mixed Regiment.

And then...... The Silver Cross Mixed Regiment collapsed at the touch of a button.

Yes, it collapsed at the touch of a button, and even a short stalemate could not be done, when the black knight simply cut off a large number of heads and broke through the formation, the rest of the entire Silver Cross mixed group fled around without hesitation.

At this time, some people finally woke up and understood that numerical superiority does not bring 100% victory.

It is true that they are more than a thousand people, but the black riders don't need five hundred people at all, they only need a hundred people to kill them all.

Because this is the legendary Spark who came out of the Northern Wilderness, this is a knight in magic armor armed to the teeth.

Of course, there are also some people who woke up earlier, such as Frank, who guessed the ending when he heard the sound of the hooves of the black horse.

Therefore, as soon as the black rider appeared, he was mentally prepared to retreat.

When the Silver Cross Mixed Regiment collapsed in contact and determined that the situation could not be reversed, he was the first to flee decisively on horseback, in the direction of the east, where he knew there were reef forts and the most powerful Union troops.

As for where to escape, it depends on the destiny of heaven.

You won't die on the road, will you...... Frank muttered a little in his heart, listened to the screams that kept sounding behind him, tried to put his body against the horse's back, and whipped the horse desperately and galloped forward.
