【Chapter 347】 Formation, Charge!
"Inform Mr. Robles that he is ready to retreat into the cave at any time. ”
"Understood. ”
Robles, who was leading the construction workers on the front line to dig the foundation pit, was also extremely nervous now, and at the end of his vision, he could clearly see the vast cavalry team, dozens of pieces of armor flashing dazzlingly.
As for the construction workers, not to mention, they have long been frightened with weak legs and weak feet, and the tools they hold in their hands are just for show.
In their preconceived notions, the Knights were real armies, unarmed slaves, vulnerable to them as rotten wooden statues.
If Harald hadn't given a strict order, they would have fled in fright.
"Everybody, give calm, sedation. Robles nervously clenched the buzzer hanging from his waist, waiting for the signal to retreat. Because of his daughter Veronica, he now sees himself as a member of the Blackstone Collar.
Moreover, he witnessed the architectural marvel of the Black Stone Collar, and the mysterious wise man did what he said he would, and indeed did his best to make the peasants live a better life.
He also sees Luna's crops, which represent the hope of a bountiful harvest.
Here, his talent is fully displayed, and he constantly gets new inspiration, new inspiration, which gives him great satisfaction as a craftsman.
For example, what they are building now - the rubble self-weight wall.
In his opinion, this is definitely a subversive design, no longer need cumbersome, inefficient stone bricks, the material used is just a similar size of crushed stone, the use of cement pouring, to achieve bonding, can be used to build fortifications in a very short time.
At present, the foundation pit is two-thirds complete, and the collection of stones can be taken from local materials, and the two rock swallowers are all in place in the wind erosion cave. With enough manpower, Robles was confident that in just a few days, he would be able to build a rough stone wall of sufficient strength.
Of course, this is only the first step in holding the Blackstone Collar.
"Chief, they're coming, they're coming. The construction workers beside him looked at the knights in bright armor in horror, their eyes full of panic, and they swallowed heavily.
"Knights, dozens of knights. ”
"We can't outrun the horses. ”
"yes. Boss, run. ”
"We don't want to die here. ”
The surrounding workers also gathered around, all of them turned so pale that they couldn't even put on their disguises, and looked at Robles one by one as if pleading, waiting for his decision.
"Don't panic, wait. Robles said casually, subconsciously touching the buzzer on his waist.
......
"Old man, those slaves look strange. ”
As the distance approached, the Knights were able to clearly catch the figures of the slaves, and they basically stopped their movements, and looked at them in place.
Viscount Haiyin frowned slightly: "I understand the meaning of the order - expulsion." But something is not normal, and they should have thought of running away when they saw us. ”
"Maybe you're scared silly?" said Melder staring playfully at the gray-faced, ragged guys, "It's worse than the wizards who hide in the tombs all day." ”
"Isn't this right, is it a disguise of demons?" Viscount Hine raised his whip and ordered the Knights to slow down, his burning gaze constantly patrolling the surroundings.
The flat wasteland, slightly sloping and undulating, with gravel and shrubs scattered about, seemed to be a good place to start a group charge. The pass in front of it, with a width of about sixty or seventy meters, is closed inward like the mouth of the bottle. Since this is the only way out of the Black Rock Collar, the road surface is not rough after years of smoothing.
The absence of horses means that there are no vehicles to escape.
So, why did the other party stay where they were so confident?
Viscount Hein, who has experienced many battles, is indeed contemptuous of the enemy in strategy, but in terms of tactics, he has always been very cautious, otherwise he would not have made many achievements.
Only this time, he wasn't facing an orc—he didn't know what they were relying on, which made him a little undecided.
The horses continued to neigh, and the formation of the Holy Spirit Knights gradually converged, forming a charging array, just waiting for the viscount's order, they could crush everything in front of them.
The scorching sun at noon dispelled the chill of late autumn, and the blood in the knights' bodies was also hot.
"My lord, it's almost the distance to charge. Melder eyed the distance between the two sides, reminding the hesitant Viscount Hein. Heavy cavalry charges, and distance is especially important in order to achieve impact speed. These armoured, knight-laden horses carry a high weight, and they have to go through two long distances, slow and medium, to reach a speed of impact.
This was very important, because for heavy cavalry, once the charge failed, it was impossible to form a second charge in a short time. A knight can do it, but a war horse can't.
However, Viscount Hein still felt that something was wrong.
His Holy Spirit Knights had fought countless times, and if the opponent was an orc, he could make a decision based on the opponent's battle intentions. If it is a thief or robber, he will charge when the opponent is determined to meet him. If it was a heretic, he would even have the knights dismount and carry out a land siege.
But the other party was a group of slave laborers with hoes—just standing dumbfounded, like a circle of farmers who didn't know why.
"Old man. Melder looked up at the blazing sun: "If we don't do anything, we won't be able to return to the front today." You know, orcs love to raid at night. ”
His meaning was very clear, if he hesitated too much and delayed the fighter, the return of the Silver Shield Knights might be dusk. The devil knows if the orcs will emerge from the darkness.
Viscount Hein gritted his teeth, and suddenly remembered the meaningful look in his colleague's eyes before leaving, as if they were laughing at him being sent to snipe a group of slave laborers......
"Formation, prepare to charge!"
With a choking sound, Viscount Haiyin drew the big sword at his waist, and the loud and majestic voice sounded.
Whoa...... Whoa......
The sound of the first page rubbing one after another, the horse's hooves rolling, like a torrent of steel, began to slowly accelerate, those knights' fighting spirit was high, and countless cloaks were waving in the wind.
The earthquake trembled, and the dust flew.
"Boss...... Boss, if you don't run, you'll die here!"
Looking at the menacing hoplites, the workers who had never seen such a scene in their lives were almost frightened, and they begged Robles vigorously.
Robles' face was also a little pale, and he held the buzzer tightly.
Suddenly, the buzzer sounded rhythmically, and Robles was relieved, and shouted loudly: "Withdraw, retreat!
Bang.
The construction workers blew up their nests, dropped their tools, and fled to the pass of the canyon in disarray. Robles ran for his life as he yelled with a buzzer: "Sergeant Major, Sergeant Major, here they are!"
"Received, received, according to the original plan, according to the original plan. ”
Harald, hiding in the wind-eroded cave, with a buzzer in his hand, dialed Hunn's buzzer again, shouting, "Hunn, get ready, get ready." ”
"Monko, Monko, get ready to be in place! Ready to be in place!"
"Roger!"
"Roger!"
After informing his comrades, Harald took a deep breath and looked into the depths of the cave, a pair of scarlet compound eyes constantly flickering in the darkness.
"Brethren, we've defeated orcs, hundreds of orcs! Prepare your weapons and wait for my orders to give them a taste of true power!"
"Understood!"
The members of the Spider Demon Artillery Squad are all carefully selected, have experienced several baptisms of battle, and are inspired by powerful weapons, and their fighting spirit is high.
