The appearance of the Danish raiding cavalry meant that the army led by the Danish king Banuk arrived in Schleisug, and in the early morning of the second day, the Duke of Mason Abel immediately ordered the knights to start wearing armor and getting ready to go, and the squires also wore leather armor and small round shields to prepare to join the war, and the general knights put their heavy armor on pack horses in order to save strength, and their squires were responsible for taking care of them, in addition to the knights' precious war horses were taken care of by themselves, they generally had two or three horses for daily use, It is for knights and squires on weekdays.

Will. Sir Adolph wore chain mail in his tent with the help of his attendants, his chain mail was down to the length of his thighs, and on top of the chain mail he also wore a leather waistcoat with nails and iron plates inlaid inside, and Will. Sir Adolph wore a long-eared hood filled with wool, but this was never a real helmet for defense, and when the hood was put on and a bottle helmet was placed on his head, and the armor was put on, Will, Sir Adolf became a knight in full armor like a steel monster.

"Sir Will." Being Will. While Sir Adolf was putting on his armor, the general of the Earl of Lauzitz lifted the curtain of the tent and came in, and saw the general enter Will. Adolf waved his squire out, and he continued to arrange his leather strap, the knight had to put on his armor before the battle, otherwise it could be the cause of his own death.

"It's a good day, isn't it?" The general of Count Lauzitz stood at the curtain, and the sun shone through the cracks in the curtain. But Will. Sir Adolphus knew he was not talking about the weather.

"Rest assured, I will keep the agreement between us, and I hope that your master, Count Lauzitz, will not forget his promise." Will. Sir Adolph said with an urn in his helmet, and took his ancestral sword in his hand, the knights loved their swords very much, and many sharp swords were family heirlooms, and would not be rebuilt unless they were used in a broken state.

"Of course, Count Lautz will shelter you." The general of Count Lauzitz immediately promised.

"I am not doing this for the sake of a personal vendetta, the Duke of Abel has broken the traditions of the nobility. Actually promoted an upstart to the status of an earl. Also marrying the noble princess to him, it seems to me that the blood of the hillbilly does not differ from the peasantry, and the blood of the Herman family is defiled. "Will. Sir Adolf said with strong displeasure.

"My lord and I, Count Lausitz, fully agree with you, and the success or failure of the esteemed knight is today. Remember our plan. The general of the Count of Lauzitz departed Will. General Adolf's tent. And Will. General Adolf holds the sword of his ancestors. Suddenly pulled out the half of the snow bright sword that exposed its scabbard, as if exuding bursts of bloody murderous aura in the tent.

"The knights of Praun were immediately armed and assembled at the command of the Earl." Outside the tent, the herald of the Earl of Plaun. The order of the Earl of Prauern was conveyed in the camp, and suddenly the neighing of war horses and the grinding of armor and weapons sounded in the camp of the Earl of Prauen, Will. Sir Adolph lifted the curtain of his tent and went out, and saw the irascible horse being held tightly by his attendants, but the unruly horses kept erecting their two front legs, revealing their white teeth, and foaming at the mouth, and the attendants had to control it with both hands.

"Felipe, be quiet, today is a good day, we should use our strength on the battlefield." Will. Adolf reached out and grasped the reins, and whispered softly to his close companion's ear, the irascible horses quieted down when they saw their master's arrival, the knight's horses were not just gentle ordinary horses, they were not only stronger and more powerful, but also more aggressive and fierce.

"The Vikings are coming, the knights are hurrying up, and your count is asking to gather as much as possible." At this moment, a low sound of bull horns was heard from the forest in the direction of Shireisug Fort, and a large number of Viking warriors lined up in a tight formation, holding round shields and battle axes in their hands, slowly walked out of the forest and came to the plain below the hills where the troops of the Duchy of Mason were stationed.

"We're down there, Your Majesty." Kreze saw from the forest that the Masons had occupied all the good terrain, and if they wanted to attack, they could only risk attacking from the back, and at the beginning Kreeser did not agree to take the initiative to attack the Mason camp, but the Danish king could not resist the demands of the vassals, they did not want to be dragged in Schleisug for a whole summer, so that their land would have no one to take care of, and the ordinary Viking warriors were not used to watching the enemy do evil in their own homes, and they had nothing to do, which made them a laughing stock for other tribes.

"It's okay, they'll definitely fight when we get down the slope." King Banuk of Denmark was dressed in an armor woven with iron rings and leather straps, and the majestic Banuk was tightly tied with a leather armed belt around his waist, and a sharp battle axe was pinned to his waist.

"Such a gentle slope is difficult for us, and although I am not afraid of death, I cannot die under the bow and crossbow without killing a single enemy." Ronald, the captain of the Swedish raiding cavalry, who also walked between the Danish king and Kreeser, saw the lines of the German mercenary group's crossbowmen during the reconnaissance, they were distributed on gentle slopes, and if they attacked from the back, the cavalry would lose their superiority, but there was no other way between the jungle and the swamp.

"I have an idea." Kreze thought about it, and the Viking mercenary colonel had an idea for the Danish king Banuk, and after hearing Kreze's idea, the Danish king immediately adopted it.

In the middle of midsummer, the army of the Duchy of Mason and the Viking warriors led by the King of Denmark fought fiercely in this area of the junction of hills and plains.

"God Odin bless us." Wearing an iron helmet with a nose guard, and holding a battle axe and a round shield, Kretzer walked into battle side by side with five hundred Viking warriors, who at first lined up in a loose formation, as if they were casually walking on the battlefield, rustling on the weeds under their feet.

"What do these Vikings want to do?" Duke Abel rode on his horse, looking at the five hundred Viking warriors who came out of the forest, he felt very strange why the enemy did not launch a surprise attack with the whole army, but only sent a force of five hundred people, although the Viking warriors were generally stronger than the Masons, but five hundred against four thousand seemed a little too arrogant.

"They must be testing us, Lord Duke, I will let the archers deal with these Viking warriors." General Ralph made a road to the Duke of Abel.

"That's exactly what I thought." The Duke of Abel rode his horse and nodded, feeling that this was a safe and feasible solution, and immediately conveyed the order to his vassals.

Duke Abel's order was also conveyed to the German mercenary group at the same time, and of course Arold would not have any objections after receiving the order, he originally planned to use a defensive strategy to deal with the attack of the Viking warriors, so the Duchy of Mason's army was divided into phalanxes led by various counts to guard the hills, but the archers in each count's army were sent to the front, while the Viking warriors continued to approach under the leadership of Krezer as if they didn't care at all.

"Archers ready ~~~." Surrounded by his own knights, the Earl of Praun watched the approaching Vikings, who were at the forefront of their first attack and immediately ordered the archers to prepare for their shots when he saw them at a distance of four hundred yards.

The archers of the Count of Praun were commoners in the realm, but as commoners with a bow, they had the right to hunt a few rabbits in the Earldom as a reward for their military service with the Earl, and with the appearance of a banner indicating the archers' troops, the forty archers in the Earl's army immediately formed two horizontal columns, and they put their arrows on the bowstring and stuck several arrows at their feet.

"Squeak~~~." There was a tooth-aching sound of bowstrings, and the Earl of Praun's archery team pulled the bowstrings, raised their bows forty-five degrees and aimed them in the direction of the Viking warriors, who were waiting for the nobles' orders, and soon with the order of the Count of Praun, forty-five arrows flew into the sky.

"Arrows, shields~~~." Krezer saw the arrows flying from the Mason army in front of him, and immediately warned the people around him loudly, and the Viking warriors immediately stopped, and they crouched down to cover their heads with round shields, so as to reduce the chance of being shot.

"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh~~~." Kreze hid under the shield and listened to the sound of arrows breaking through the air above, and when the sound of an arrow hitting the shield in his hand made an aggressive sound, when the sound was over, the Viking warriors stood up again, they were so good at fighting under the arrows of Count Praun, there were no casualties, the Viking warriors had to be the enemy's archers after a wave, they would stop for a while to catch the arrows, so they continued to move forward, and when they were fired by the arrows, they stopped, The stop-and-go was already approaching the position of the Earl of Praune less than two hundred yards.
