The soldiers of Count Lauzitz had gone through a day's long march, and they were all asleep together, not knowing that the cavalry led by Arold was rushing towards them, and one of Count Lauzitz's soldiers was awakened by a soak of urine, and he muttered sleepily and stood up, this noble son was dressed in cloth armor embellished with iron plates, and when he stood up, there was the sound of a rope, and even then no one opened his eyes to see, and they only let out a few dreams occasionally.
"Bang la~~~~." Walking to the bushes, the aristocratic child who was awakened by urine unbuttoned his pants and took out his work, and happily peed, but at this moment he felt a dull sound in his ears, so he stretched out his free hand and plucked his ears.
"Whew." Just when the noble child thought that he was hallucinating, a horse's head appeared from the darkness, and then a knight jumped out with a war horse under his crotch, and the noble child who was frightened by this sudden scene sat on the ground and looked at the knight who crossed his head with his mouth wide open.
"Puff~~~." Before the nobleman's children could react, a heavy cavalryman who followed the knight in front of him stabbed the spear in his hand fiercely, because the war horse continued to charge, the cavalry on the horse immediately let go of the spear to pierce the corpse, and he skillfully pulled out the sword hanging on the other side of the horse.
"Ah~~~~, Grey Law." The sudden arrival of the cavalry from the darkness turned the peaceful camp upside down, and at dawn, when the vigilance of the people was at its weakest, the sudden arrival of the enemy would cause even those who had been on the battlefield to panic, let alone the serfs who were mostly cannon fodder in this team. Many people panicked when they heard the screams and horses' hooves.
"What's wrong?" Count Lauzitz, who was sleeping with a stiff neck, stood up violently at the sound of the commotion, and the sword in his hand fell to the ground, and he looked left and right, but at this moment it was pitch black except for the light infantry fleeing like headless flies, and he felt at a loss.
"Lord Earl. Hurry up and gather the nobles and elite soldiers. Fortunately, Brother Robert said loudly to Count Lauzitz as he straightened out his monk's robes.
"Oh, yes, yes, blow the horn and get the nobles to come to me." Count Lauzitz was reminded by Brother Robert, and then came to his senses, and he hurriedly ordered the commander beside him.
"Woo, woo~~~." Unlike the light infantry, who had no military training. The nobles immediately held their swords in their hands after being awakened, and the clansmen around them also gathered together, although it was not clear how large the enemy's sneak attack was, but it did not turn into a plate of scattered sand, and Arold's cavalry did not take the initiative to attack them, but only drove around the light infantry who were slashing and slashing.
"It's the sound of the horn of Count Lauzitz." Sir Nishizawa held his sword and listened to the sound of the trumpet, and the most feared thing in the night of the attack was that there was no commander, and now he heard the trumpet sound of the Count of Lautz. They immediately led their men towards Count Lauzitz, and if they tried to disperse their light infantry, they unceremoniously swung their swords and slashed at them.
In the urging of the trumpet. Fifteen nobles and thirty-five knights were finally gathered around Count Lauzitz, and the swordsmen of the nobles.66 The sons of the nobility were also gathered around them, Brother Robert counted about eighty of them, and the archers, although most of the losses were scattered, but there were still more than two hundred, and the only pity was that the light infantry as cannon fodder only gathered more than six hundred. Looking at the more than 100 soldiers around him, although the number of these soldiers was much smaller, but they were all elite troops, Count Lauzitz's heart finally settled down.
"It's Arold's cavalry, I didn't expect them to be ambushed in the wilderness." Sir Nishizawa wiped his nose with his left hand. Said in an angry voice.
"How many of them are there?" Count Lauzitz raised his eyes uneasily and looked around, his ears were full of the frightened voices of the light infantry, he originally thought that with more than a thousand soldiers, Arold would not dare to act rashly, but he did not expect that Arold was not only fearless, but also set a trap for them.
"There shouldn't be a lot of people, but it's all cavalry." Sir Nishizawa said with a frown.
"The nobles and knights immediately mounted and killed Arold's minions." After the initial panic, only anger remained in his heart, and with successive orders, the nobles and knights mounted their horses and pounced on Arold's cavalry.
"Jingle ~~~." Suddenly, on the opposite side of Shuangqiao Town, the forest and the river bank resounded with the sound of weapons clashing and the neighing of war horses, and the nobles of Mason looked around for Arold's men to fight, and once they saw the target, they immediately slapped their horses forward, and Arold's heavy cavalry and knights were not to be outdone, and immediately raised their swords to meet the battle.
"Heh~~~~." Arold held the reins of his horse with his left hand, clenched his sword with his right hand, and stabbed at Sir Nishizawa, who was rushing towards him.
"Drive it~~~, I'll deal with it here, Lord Earl." When Sir Ron saw Arold engage with someone, he immediately kicked his crotch mount with a spur in his heel, and rushed to Arold's side to block Sir Nishizawa.
"I'm Sir Nishizawa, the nobleman of Mason, who are you?" Sir Nishizawa looked at the person standing in front of him, the sky had gradually begun to whiten, and he could gradually see the face of the other party, this was a young knight wearing chain mail, so Sir Nishizawa asked according to the etiquette of the nobles.
"I'm the knight of Lord Count Mecklenburg, Sir Ron." Sir Ron raised his sword and performed a knightly ritual at Sir Nishizawa, who were of the same class and observed the proper system of etiquette.
"Very well, I, Sir Nishizawa challenges you."
"I, the Knight of the Inner House of Lord Count Mecklenburg, Sir Ron accepts your challenge."
"Knight of the Inner House? Then you must be Arrod. Earl Wendell is up. Listening to Sir Ron's words, Sir Nishizawa pointed to Arold behind him, although Arrod's semi-enclosed helmet covered his face, but looking at Arold's smock coat of arms and gorgeous cape, he immediately realized that this was Arold, Earl of Mecklenburg, and couldn't help but show a greedy look in his eyes.
"Ron, don't dwell on it, let's withdraw." Arold lifted his mask, and he looked at Sir Nishizawa with surprise on his face, and a sneer appeared on his lips.
"Yes, Lord Count." Sir Ron nodded slightly, and he galloped away with Arrod turning his horse's head, leaving Sir Nishizawa with a stunned expression.
"Why, Sir Ron, do you want to flee in spite of the glory of the knight?" Sir Nishizawa didn't believe that a knight would leave the challenge anyway, so he left without looking back, looking at their backs, Sir Nishizawa was stunned for a moment.
"Sir Nishizawa, what's wrong with you, why are you stunned here?" At this time, other nobles came to his side on horseback and asked curiously.
"Oh God, chase after you, the one ahead is Arrod, Count of Mecklenburg." Sir Nishizawa woke up at this point, and immediately pointed ahead to his companions.
"What? It's Arrod. Hearing that it was their enemy Arrod who had fled ahead, the nobles were furious, and they gathered their people and chased in the direction of Arrod's escape.
"Where did the nobles go?" Count Lausitz and Brother Robert gathered around the soldiers who had been scattered during the night attack, and finally gathered four hundred light infantry, while the rest were either killed and trampled by the raiding cavalry, or took advantage of the chaos to escape.
"They seem to have gone after Arrod." Someone in the know immediately reported it to Count Lauzitz.
"What? Arold appeared. Count Lauzitz asked in surprise.
"Yes, Lord Earl, it was Sir Nishizawa who appeared first."
"Then we should go to his aid, and the soldiers will come with me." Count Lauzitz put on his splendid helmet, climbed into his horse with the help of his attendants, and then ordered the regrouping light infantry that the serfs would not dare to disobey under his obscenity, so they had to take up their lost weapons again and follow the Count.
"Drive it~~~, Arod don't run, you coward, child murderer." The rebellious Mason nobles chased after Arrod, and unknowingly, they were led into the river in front of Shuangqiao Town, where the water level dropped a lot because the upstream was intercepted, revealing the silt at the bottom of the river.
"Damn the sludge." The horses of the Mason nobles stepped into the mud and slowed down, and they desperately urged the horses under their crotches to advance, and the anxious nobles were sweating profusely.
"Whoosh, whoosh~~~." Suddenly, from the opposite side of the river, several javelins were shot, and the nobles who could not dodge fell off their horses, only to see that Arold's javelin cavalry had already been waiting there, and they threw the javelins in their hands at the soldiers who were pursuing Arold, so that these soldiers had to stop and dodge, and Arold and others took the opportunity to escape.
"Woo, woo, woo~~~~." At this moment, a dull trumpet sounded, and the Mason nobles were puzzled when they heard the sound of the horn, which was by no means the sound of the horn of Count Lauzett, so they ignored the strange sound of the horn, and since their mounts could not move forward, in order to catch the enemy Arrod, the Mason nobles simply marched on foot, but they were wearing heavy armor.
"What's that sound?" Sir Nishizawa stopped, the mud stained his legs, and even the chain armor was covered with mud, and he heard a strange noise, so he asked his companions, but the other nobles were also at a loss.
"Bang la~~~~."
"It's water, it's water, run away~~~." The voices grew louder and louder, and one of the soldiers who had fallen behind turned his head to see the surging river rushing towards them.
