Chapter 52: The Knights of the Holy Prison
At about seven o'clock in the evening, due to the continuous rain on the Rhine Plain, the sky was already dark, and a large area of rain and fog shrouded in the grassland, and a figure shuttled among them, like a ghost, which was too fast and left an afterimage in the eyes of ordinary people.
There is only a fighter-level Ding Huo, who can come and go at will in the center of the battlefield where the two armies are 'engaged', and if it is replaced by a martial artist, even if it is a tenth-level peak martial artist, it is easy to be discovered and surrounded by the patrol army.
In thirty minutes, Ding Huo crossed the Rhine steppe for the third time and arrived at the meeting point agreed with the Holy Prison Legion.
It was near a hill 10,000 meters east of the Black Armor Army's camp.
After arriving, Ding Huo saw a knight of the Holy Prison Legion who had been waiting here for a long time, after the two sides met, Ding Huo showed his prince's order, and the other party's eyes suddenly lit up, and after saluting, he took Ding Huo all the way to the depths of the hills.
After another twenty minutes, they arrived at a small mountain pass, where the Holy Prison Legion, dressed in red armor, was temporarily stationed.
Ding Huo silently counted the number of the Holy Prison Legion in his heart, and there were nearly a hundred fewer than when they met before, and now there were only about six hundred left.
Although they have been fighting for days and are in the enemy's sphere of influence, they can't get rest in order to get rid of the encirclement and suppression of the Black Armor Army, but the 'spirit' state of the Holy Prison Knights is still very good.
Especially after knowing the counteroffensive plan.
"It's finally time for this day!" Arthur, the acting captain of the Holy Prison Legion, waved his fist with a 'excited' expression, and roared: "Holy Prison Charge!"
"There are no regrets even if you die!" more than 600 people echoed at the same time.
Ding Huo felt that the momentum of being able to fight to the death for victory was also a little 'agitated', with such a knight fighting for his side, victory can really be expected.
However, among the 'excited' Prison Knights, Ding Huo saw two characters that did not fit in, one was a short boy with blonde hair, and the other was a huge armor.
"Edward, Alphonse, have you always been good?" Ding Huo greeted the two material transformation alchemists, and was a little strange: "Why are you here?"
"That guy hired us. Edward pouted in Arthur's direction.
"Hire?" Ding Huo wondered how Arthur could have money?
"Haha, the day before yesterday, I robbed a batch of black armor army's baggage, and there were a large number of military coins in it, so I paid back the accounts I owed them before, and there was still a lot left, so I hired them. Arthur laughed.
This guy is really lucky, and he's very happy. Ding Huo commented on Arthur.
They have a proverb: God will favor happy people, which translates to mean that those who love to laugh will not have bad luck.
So Ding Huo remembered Valkyrie's iceberg face, he must need a heartless guy like Arthur to neutralize it, and the iceberg face with the Optimist pie must be very harmonious.
But that's all for later.
If the battle is won, everything is easy to say, and if it is lost, it will go to hell.
Ding Huo briefly explained to Arthur the general content of the restoration plan, the task of the Holy Prison Legion is to cooperate with the frontal Shaking Light Army offensive, surprise the army, and cut off the head of Li Chengqian, the crown prince of Kaiyang Kingdom.
This is not much different from Arthur's previous thoughts, so Arthur is happy to accept the order.
And because of the cooperation of the alchemy brothers Edward and Alphonse, Ding Huo felt that this attack had a lot more chances of winning, and the two alchemists with material transformation expertise had more advantages than Force cultivators when they did large-scale attacks.
The sky darkened little by little.
After learning of the plan, the Holy Prison Legion was full of excitement, this group of cavalry of the Holy Prison Legion was a veteran of the Shaking Light Country, the overall strength was very strong, and the psychological quality was also very good, in the past few months of combat and tempering, more than six hundred, all of them were promoted to martial arts, and the average level was about four levels.
It can be said that it is the most 'elite' cavalry regiment in the Shake Recovery.
So when Valkyrie proposed the plan, Ding Huo thought about it for a while and felt that it was either hopeless, or because of the existence of the Knights of the Holy Prison.
Now, Ding Huo is studying the topographical map of the Rhine battlefield, and whispers a few words with Arthur from time to time.
The number of the Holy Prison Knights is only a few tenths of the peak, and they can command hundreds of cavalry to charge into battle, and they are also a 'door' of advanced knowledge, not the command of the banner, the knights can win, and the Holy Prison Knights are not afraid of death, nor can they die in vain.
Arthur's command ability was very strong, and he was able to survive the Rhine War with a thousand knights, and if he didn't have such ability, his entire army would have been wiped out long ago.
After Ding Huo chatted with Arthur for a few words, he knew that in terms of tactical command, it was enough to 'hand' everything to Arthur.
"When shaking the light and recovering ** and fighting head-on with the Black Armor Army, the main banner of the Black Armor Army must be where the Kaiyang Crown Prince is, as long as we break through and break through, we can end this battle until we reach the banner!" Arthur's tone was 'excited'.
Well. Ding Huo nodded in agreement.
"However, the terrain of the Rhine Plain is flat and easy to set up a formation, and the two sides and rear flanks of the Black Armor Army must be very heavy, and if you want to cut it, you have to 'spend' some strength. Ding Huo said.
"So what?" Arthur roared, "Hellcharge!"
"There are no regrets about dying. "More than six hundred Knights of the Holy Prison dressed in blood armor roared loudly, and their momentum was 'excited', soaring into the sky.
Ding Huo felt that they should be quieter.
However, some fears came to naught when there was a violent cannon fire in the distance.
That direction is the city of the Rhine.
Shake the light**, has begun to march!
Ding Huo and Arthur glanced at each other, and they both saw the light in each other's eyes, and the victory or defeat was in this move, so the two of them got on their horses, and the knights of the Holy Prison were already ready to go, and more than 600 light cavalry came out of the small mountain pass, all the way to the direction of the Rhine battlefield to cover the light cavalry.
Along the way, with a team of ten people, patrolling around the cavalry of the brigade, about 10,000 meters away from the black armor barracks, about to leave the hilly area, when they arrived at the Rhine steppe, the spies had already detected the black armor army rangers.
The front is the defense range of the Black Armor Army, and now is not the time to alarm the Black Armor Army, so more than 600 cavalry stopped, Ding Huo and Arthur, the Force level is the highest, and the two dismounted and went out to investigate the enemy.
Standing on top of a hill, hidden in the grass, Ding Huo saw a long dragon of lights, and rushed towards the black armor barracks.
The distance between Rhine City and the main camp of the Black Armor Army is about ten miles, and the cavalry troops have rushed to the bottom of the Black Armor Army camp at night.
The move of the Shaking Light Cavalry was obviously a provocation, even if the magic guide cannon could blast open the 'door' of the Black Armor Army camp, the cavalry would not easily rush into the Black Armor Army camp.
So when the magic guide cannon on the black armor barracks roared, the shaking cavalry retreated neatly, 'exposed' a large area of open space and grassland, and was blown up by the magic guide cannonballs.
A surprise attack by the cavalry, announcing the start of the battle, arrayed in front of the black-armored barracks.
Rhine City is a city of moats, sandwiched between the two mountains, if the Shaking Light Army can't hold out, even if the Black Armor Army has ten times the military strength, it will not be able to break through, so after repeated attacks, the battle situation has fallen into a stalemate, at this moment the Shaking Light Army left the city and took the initiative to attack, in addition to scaring the Black Armor Army, it also made the Black Armor Army very happy.
Not much.
The big 'door' of the black-armored camp opened, and the black-armored knights rushed out.
At the time when the Shaking Light Army was launched, the rangers of the Black Armor Army had already noticed it, so in the Black Armor Barracks, they were also ready to equip themselves, and at this moment, the Shaking Light Army was in front of the Black Armor Camp, and the Black Armor Army's response was also extremely fast.
The two armies faced each other.
They are mainly cavalry, supplemented by infantry.
Due to the presence of Force cultivators, individual powers are amplified to the limit, and when these individuals are unified and become forces in battle, it is enough to sweep through several times the number of ordinary people.
Therefore, the warrior knight unit is the force that decides the outcome of the battle.
The Shaking Light Cavalry is about 10 million, divided into three parts, forming a trident shape, and the most central sharp point is the 'female' Valkyrie in golden armor, under the reflection of the firelight all over the battlefield, the 'female' Valkyrie is as dazzling as the golden sun.
The battle began quickly.
Although the Black Armor Army assembled quickly, the Shaking Light Army did not seize the opportunity, but the 'female' Valkyrie had already waved the spear in her hand, and the cry of the Eagle of Victory resounded throughout the battlefield.
The cavalry of the three Shaking Light Army drove their horses forward at the same time, and the neighing of horses on the battlefield was like a landslide, and then the horses' hooves stepped on the grassland, rolling like a muffled thunder, and the more they rolled, the more 'fierce' they became, like ten thousand thunders exploding together, rushing towards the Black Armor Army.
In the Black Armor Army, the banner shook, so the Black Armor Army also began to attack, and the number of cavalry in the Black Armor Army was more than twice that of the Shake Light Army, which was not all the cavalry strength of the Black Armor Army.
Valkyrie took the lead, threw out the spear of the sky in her hand, and shook a whirlwind that swept through, and dozens of black-armored knights who faced her were suddenly stirred into the sky.
The power of the 'female' Valkyrie is unstoppable to mortals!
Facing Valkyrie's cavalry, they were immediately scattered, and the trident cavalry formation led by Valkyrie instantly cut into the black armor army, cutting the black armor army into pieces.
That's when it happened.
Dressed in white, he appeared in the black armor army.
The young 'girl' in white sat on the war horse, the air around her seemed to be all invisible swords, and the black-armored cavalry who retreated came to her close, and was immediately cut into pieces, blood burst out, but the young 'girl' in white didn't blink her eyes, and her cold gaze kept looking at Valkyrie who rushed towards her.
Ah Qing appeared!
Valkyrie wields the Spear of the Firmament.
Ah Qing raised his palm and condensed the Void Heart Sword.
When the forces of the two sides collided, a whirlpool like a storm exploded in the battlefield, and the cavalry within a hundred meters were all harmed by the aftermath, and the nearby ones were directly cut into pieces by the wind and invisible swords, and the ones in the distance were also drenched in blood, the war horses roared, and the knights screamed.
Ah Qing appeared, and the time to get out of the plane has arrived!
Ding Huo and Arthur yelled at the same time: "Attack!"
