Chapter 50: The Slayer (1)
The morning light is shining.
Facing the direction of the rising sun, Rhodes sat on a very strong Polly dragon, and the slightly old saddle was tightly fastened to the dragon's back.
This saddle is a military saddle.
The rider can be supported, and all the riding skills associated with maintaining in the saddle will be improved to some extent.
If a rider falls into a coma while using a military saddle, there is a 75% chance that he will not fall off the saddle.
In addition to this military saddle, there are cargo saddles, heterogeneous saddles, ride saddles, etc., the biggest feature of the military saddle is that in addition to high stability, it can also be equipped with mount armor to mounts.
Mount armor is a type of armor that wraps around the head, neck, chest, body, and possibly limbs, and is usually made for horses or other mounts.
Mount armor made into medium or heavy armor provides better protection than light mount armor, but at the expense of speed. Mount armor can be crafted from any normal armor and shield.
"Boss."
The big Jon sat on a Polysaurus, his expression a little cramped, and whispered, "Our first batch of more than twenty mounts has been assembled, what do you command......
Rod glanced at him coldly, the expression on his face did not change in the slightest, and the overall feeling was solemn and serious.
The big guy was by far one of his most loyal and tough men, but even he was a little cramped on the Polyon, let alone the others.
More than twenty carefully selected adventurer men in front of him sat on the dragon's back one by one, these people had previous experience in riding horses, although the polly dragon was different from the horse, but the riding skills were the same, sitting on the dragon's back, Rod found that these people were trembling slightly, obviously unable to easily drive the mount.
"Pick up your weapons!"
Rod said in a deep voice, his fierce eyes swept over everyone in front of him, and the murderous aura on his body was released, causing a low roar of the Polydragon.
Hearing Rod's words, these dragon beast cavalry cheered up one by one, the weapons in their hands were held tightly, and they barely had a trace of cavalry, but at the same time, they also muttered a little in their hearts, they didn't know what Rod was calculating, but when they saw Rode's serious expression, they knew that it didn't seem to be a good thing.
"Follow me!"
I saw that Rhodes took the lead, and the polic dragon under his crotch opened his strong legs and galloped towards the valley quickly.
"Jon, your Highness! Anyone left behind, give me a pump! Whip it hard! The guy who fell behind for the third time, kill! ”
His cold voice came from ahead.
Hearing this, a hideous look appeared on the big man's face, and he drove his mount to hang behind him, and a thick whip on his left hand made a crisp sound in the air.
Hearing Rod's indifferent and ruthless words, one by one the knights trembled, their heads were red, their eyes were red, and they gritted their teeth and tried to control the polly dragon, sometimes people are like this, fear and desire will stimulate the powerful potential in people's bodies.
Rhodes didn't have kung fu and they inked.
In his opinion, this group of people has a foundation in horsemanship, and what they lack is just a little run-in with Polylong, and time is pressing, and he doesn't mind forcing them with pressure and fear.
A cavalry squad of more than twenty people.
Their goal was to transport an arms transport force from a group of Pioneer Pioneers to Camp Osm.
Rhodes is short of money right now.
He still has more than forty Polysaurus that have not been tamed, and even now these more than 20 Polysaurus, their mount armor has not been completed, and a batch of weapons and armor just happened to meet Rod's eyes.
This is undoubtedly a temptation.
After eating this batch of weapons and armor, Rhodes has a lot of capital.
You know, the arms business has always been profitable.
Especially at a time of tension in the region, the arms business is a sure-fire business.
After doing this order, Rhodes can complete the arming of mount armor and personnel equipment, and secondly, the excess weapons and equipment can be sold for a good price, and he can even use this batch of arms to attract and recruit some people.
Around noon.
Rhodes and their figures appeared near the Fortune Avenue in Xiliu City, which is an official road in Xiliu City, and you can walk more than ten miles east to connect to the King's Avenue in Varesian.
However, due to the fact that the city of Westflow is backed by the Gnibol River, this overland road is rarely traveled by merchants, and in general, only the powerful caravans will take the land route when conducting large cross-border transactions.
After all, this world is full of dangers, and after a certain range beyond the city, the area around the official road is not very stable.
"Good...... That's a lot of people! ……”
Ambushed near the avenue, Rhodes arrived here about an hour early, and his men were keeping an eye on the shipment, which had already arrived according to the itinerary.
It's just that the size of the team in front of him is a bit unexpected for him.
But it's no wonder.
The pioneer group that dared to make such a big move to join the Iron Sword Regiment really had two brushes, and at a cursory glance, the number of people in the transportation team of this batch of weapons and equipment was about a hundred.
And it's well equipped.
On either side of several heavy vehicles, there were two squads of people, almost each armed with a repeating light crossbow, and Rod's eyesight was strong, and he noticed that these repeating light crossbows were all wound.
There are about 20 of the winding repeating light crossbows!
This kind of repeating light crossbow will not be wound easily, because this practice is very hurtful to the weapon, because this kind of crossbow is not like a heavy crossbow, the material and process tend to be light, almost a single person can be easily used, but it is also the pursuit of this light simplicity, its bearing capacity is a little weaker, can not be maintained for a long time in the winding state.
In addition, the whole team is clearly structured, with a front row of warriors with thorny shields on their backs, some adventurers with long swords and scimitars hanging from their waists in the middle, and the closest to the car are the shooters.
Rod frowned and didn't speak.
This convoy looks a bit sloppy, he only has more than 20 horsemen, if he really forcibly drives his men to storm the convoy, it is very likely that he will be destroyed before he can get close.
The difference in numbers is five or six times, and it does not have an advantage in weapons and equipment, such a huge gap is estimated that everyone else has no idea of fighting except for Rhodes.
Suddenly.
The convoy ahead stopped their progress, and the warriors with the thorny heavy shields took out their shields, and some warriors with barbed spears also stood by, and the whole convoy moved.
"Damn! They've found us! ”
When Rhodes saw their movements, he immediately reacted, and he scolded angrily.
Seeing the group of guys behind him who had no intention of fighting, Rhodes pulled out his giant sword and shouted, "Prepare to fight!" ”
"Jon! You bring someone to fight for me! Wait for the opportunity to act! Don't charge without my orders! ”
"Everyone else has shown me a good look!"
"Kill!"
Luo De snorted, and the Poly Dragon under his crotch erupted with a powerful force, the Yuliang Fruit has the effect of purifying the blood of the dragon beast, and accelerating domestication is only an incidental effect to them, this Poly Dragon is in its youth, under the effect of the Yuliang Fruit, the explosive power and speed have begun to slowly increase.
"Enemy attack! Enemy attack! ”
The leader of the convoy shouted, and when he saw that only one of Rhodes had launched a charge, the leader was overjoyed and shouted: "There is only one enemy in the enemy!" ”
"Crossbowman! Preparation! ”
He waved his hand.
More than twenty crossbowmen neatly picked up their crossbows and locked onto Rhodes in unison, and the sharp arrows glistened in the sun.
When the two sides are less than 100 meters.
The leader shouted, "Release! ”
Da! Da! Da!
The crisp sound of the spring sounded, and more than twenty arrows whistled towards Rhodes, and the rapid arrows were about to beat Rhodes into a sieve.
"Humph!"
Rod snorted coldly, and the giant sword in his hand danced, drawing a 180-degree arc, and slapped forward.
- "Ride the Circle Dance Slash!" ”
With the power of the charge, Rhodes' greatsword sent out a powerful shockwave that scattered the cluster of arrows in front of him, and at the same time, a gorgeous spinning slap blasted away all subsequent attacks.
