When Cook first entered the battlefield, he thought of the enemy too simply, and the situation around him was not what he thought.

Just as Deran and Morey were at a stalemate, another Black Knights from the north had already moved forward, and the Black Knights army had besieged the entire city of Nedor.

Mompot and Miller fled frantically with the populace, both stunned when they saw black smoke rising from the direction of Nedo City ahead. Miller reacted quickly, and he immediately made a decision to let the knights lead the people across the river from the bridge, and go to the south bank of the river to continue their escape eastward.

This river is the famous Longcheng River in the East, the north bank of the river is the territory of Neiduo, and the south bank of the river is the territory of Hwaseong. The Longcheng River originates in the high mountains on the eastern border, and the river crosses the entire territory of Longcheng, passing through a mountain pass and flowing into the border between Neido and Hwaseong, and finally joins the Knight River in the Sunshine Water Territory.

Nedo City is behind the woods in front of you, and the Dragon City Territory is located in the mountain range on the east side, which is actually unwilling to be from the location of the people, and it only takes about half a day to enter the Dragon City territory. But the barbarians laid siege to the city of Nedo in front, completely blocking the way of the people.

Miller's idea was very good, and by walking from the south bank of the river, he could bypass the barbarian army besieging the city of Nedo. However, there were so many people that it was not easy to cross the bridge to the south bank.

Seeing the barbarians attacking, the people fled in panic, and the ranks were in chaos in an instant. After hearing the knights' orders, the refugees crowded on the bridge, blocking the progress of crossing the river.

Mompot was very anxious and personally stepped forward to maintain order, which finally eased somewhat, and the people finally began to cross the river one after another.

However, at this time, a patrol of barbarians spotted them, and the whereabouts of the populace were revealed.

As if they had found prey, dozens of black knights led people to frantically pounce on the unarmed Nate people, and the panicked people were once again in chaos, and countless people died tragically under the iron hooves of the barbarians.

The massacre began to be staged on the spot, and there was no mercy in front of the barbarians, their purpose was very simple, to kill all these people who fled to Dragon City, and they would be able to deal with Dragon City more conveniently in the future. This policy of slaughter was personally ordered by Anthony, the head of the Black Knights, and as a far-sighted commander, Anthony understood the importance of Dragon City, so he felt that he could not let the Nate gather in Dragon City, otherwise it would cause problems for the Empire to completely conquer Knight.

Strategically, Anthony's slaughter strategy was right, as Knight was their only opponent on the continent. The Knight can't be given any respite, or there will be no end to the disaster.

In the midst of Knight's crowd, a peasant woman finally squeezed onto the wooden bridge, and as she fled frantically to the other side, she cried and said, "God, gods, where are you, come and save us who are suffering, woo-woo-woo~~~~~~." ”

The barbarian knights gathered more and more, countless refugees died in the massacre, only a few fled to the other side of the river, many more jumped directly into the river, and the rest of the refugees were still crowded at the bridge. As the arrows flew in, more and more Knights fell in pools of blood. The blood pooled into the river, which soon turned red, and the horrific sight sent chills through everyone.

In order to save more people, Mompot led the knights to resist incessantly, and even Miller, who did not like to fight, also wielded a short sword to fight together.

The situation was very critical, and seeing the people of Knight being shot in batches, Mompot and Miller were in great pain, and they only hated that they couldn't turn into thousands of doppelgangers.

At that moment, there was a real commotion in the ranks of the Tubis, and a warrior broke through the enemy line from behind, tearing through their defenses like a raging wind.

Miller immediately exclaimed, "Big Brother Robitt, you came back too timely. ”

This warrior was indeed Robit, who was armed with a knight's sword, and his bravery was amazing, sweeping the Black Knight's position as if he had entered a no-man's land, killing them in all directions and fleeing. Robitt was powerful, and the domineering he showed made Mompott's eyes suddenly brighten, but he didn't expect that he alone would burst out with a power comparable to that of a hundred or so guards, and he would repel dozens of barbarians in an instant.

Under the protection of Robit and others, the remaining people finally crossed the Longcheng River safely, and the group quickly fled east from the south bank.

On the plain on the west side, Delan is still fighting with Morey, the physical strength of the two is close to overdraft, and if they continue to fight, accidents will happen at any time, and the dead person may be Delan or Morey.

Cook reckoned that the task of delaying the enemy should be almost complete, and that it would be dangerous for them to continue to fight Deran. Cook gestured to Deresa, and the two parted and stopped fighting.

Cook politely saluted and said, "Today the two are evenly matched, let's fight again in the future." ”

After saying that, Cook shouted, and together with Derain, he led the knights to quickly flee eastward, making the panting Morey have no time to react for a while, and stood in place in a daze.

When he passed the blood-stained wooden bridge, Cook knew that something was wrong, and the group crossed the river to the south bank in search of the blood of the people.

At this time, Antony, who received the news, left the army of the Knights to continue the siege of Ritunburg, and he personally led a team of guards to rush over to support. He didn't see the crowds of Knight people, only that Cook and his team of knights were running non-stop on the south bank.

Who is Anthony, he is the rookie of the empire who was designated as the successor by Warkas, because of his special background and strong strength, the number of the knights under his command ranks fourth in the empire. For an imperial leader who was only twenty years old, with such a high honor, he definitely did not rely on the strength of his own clan. Anthony is just the son of an ordinary nobleman in the empire, and all this today is all his own efforts.

In the Imperial Warriors Tournament two years ago, Anthony easily defeated all his opponents and won the first place in the Warrior Tournament. On the day of his victory, he was chosen by Prince Wakas to become a heavyweight in the Crusade army. In these two years of the Eastern Crusade, Anthony won many military exploits, and the army of King Nate Luo Khan was completely wiped out by him, and the sword of King Luo Khan captured achieved his reputation, and since then Anthony has been praised by his people as a rookie of the empire, and he has been designated by Wakas as his future successor.

Reputation was very important to Anthony, and he would never accept the Order's defeat here at the Wooden Bridge. The current group of Knight knights on the South Shore, Anthony will not allow them to leave here alive. Soon Anthony led the knights across the wooden bridge and chased after the knights from the south bank.

Deran had long been aware of the pursuers behind him, and he kept reminding everyone, urging Cook and the knights to evacuate as quickly as possible.

Two teams of knights galloped wildly across the plains, one after the other, but Anthony was a hero of the steppe, and his horsemanship was unmatched.

Half an hour later, Anthony had already thrown off the other black knights and chased after him alone, and he turned his sword left and right at the two knights who were running slowly, and neither of them had time to scream before they fell to the ground.

The so-called good ones don't come, and those who come are not good, Delan is keenly aware that the strength of this person behind him is extraordinary.

In order to protect the knights from escaping, he hurriedly turned his horse's head and rushed towards Anthony with his sword raised.

The two fought, and Cook stopped his horse and looked back.

Anthony is no better than Morey, he does not have as many worries as Morey, and he has more exquisite swordsmanship, and he comes up with all his strength and leaves no room for it. Although Delan was well prepared, he didn't expect his opponent to be so strong, and he fought with Morey for nearly two hours before, and his physical strength still hasn't fully recovered.

After more than a dozen moves, Delan did not keep up with his movements, and was stabbed in the right arm by Anthony with a sword, so shocked that Delan had to flee on horseback.

When DeLand was wounded, Cook was shocked, and he immediately instructed DeLan: "Judging from the footprints on the ground, Miller and the others should take the refugees back to the north shore from the wooden bridge in front." Lord Teresa, you quickly take the knights back to the north shore from the bridge, and I will take care of the rear. ”

The pain in his arm didn't make Delan think much about it, and he immediately led the knights to the wooden bridge not far ahead.

Cook stays behind, and he will face this new hero of the Tubis Empire alone.

After a few moves, Cook sensibly chose to retreat, and he rode away as he fought, trying to delay time for Delan and them.

After all, Cook is only fifteen years old, and the other party is a twenty-year-old man in the prime of life, not to mention that he is a man of the year in the imperial army, the gap between himself and him is obvious, and Cook knows it very well in his heart.
