It's the enemy!

The soldiers stationed in the church had already rushed out, because they were always ready, and they had already practiced how to deal with the sudden attack of the enemy. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

The Barbary pirates were the first to carry their knives forward, quickly standing still on the inside of the light mask, one by one the cold shimmering scimitars were already grasped, they were facing the enemy's first line of defense, using melee methods to hinder the enemy's advance, and trying to hold out until the second line of defense was established.

However, it was clear that the enemy they were facing this time was not the cavalry that came like a storm, and when the town militia stood behind the Barbary pirates with flintlock muskets, there were still a few dark shadows on the hills in the distance.

The war horses made of white bones, the mottled armor, and the faint blue flashing in the gaps of the helmets all indicate that these black shadows are cavalrymen from the castle of the dead.

Death Knight, perhaps?

Zachari didn't understand, and stood with the priests who came behind him, more than twenty priests who had already mastered the divine power, all of them carrying maces, eight-bladed flowering appearances, and full of armor-piercing ability.

And if you look closely, you will find that each of them is floating with a little white light like snow, and a divine power belonging to positive energy is emanating from their souls, especially with their own beliefs, but also with the deepest firmness and fearlessness against evil.

"Your Excellency, notice has been sent."

Behind him, a priest in a black hood also walked over quickly, with a solemn expression, and reported to Zachari in a deep voice: "Do you want the troops stationed in the silver pit to come in?" ”

"Wait a minute."

But Zachari didn't nod, but looked at the hills in the distance, reached out and took out the telescope in his arms, and through the refraction of light, he also saw more and more clearly.

It was indeed the Death Knight I had seen before, a disturbing evil in the depths of my soul, a confused existence that should have been sleeping underground, but was resurrected by the power of evil, and must be purified.

His fingers clenched slightly, but Zachari's brows furrowed more and more solemnly, especially looking at the six death knights on the hill standing on the top of the mountain like that, as if they were also looking at this side, and slowly said, "Could it be that they are also spying on us?" ”

The rest of the priests looked at it too, but they didn't think much of it, for the evil creatures who blasphemed the glory of God had only the word purification in their minds.

"It's a bit of a frustration."

This is caused by the strategic short-sightedness of others, Zachari is also a little helpless with his subordinates, and exhales slowly, he still raises his hand and orders: "Everyone stay vigilant and always be ready to fight." ”

"Understood." The surrounding soldiers also greeted in unison, and at the same time, under the command of the surrounding captains, they gradually began to disperse, leaving only a dozen Barbary pirates standing in place with knives on guard.

But when the town militia returned to the church, they did not sit idle, but went back and forth quickly from several warehouses, carrying all the sandbags filled with dirt to the walls outside the church, as well as at the windows and doors, forming many obstacles, which they used as shooting holes.

Even in a flashing window on the second floor of the church, a 7-pounder gun was slowly pushed out, the smaller muzzle aimed at the hill in the distance, but the gunner in charge of the control also knew that the hill was beyond the firing range.

These are all preparations for vigilance, after all, in this evil world, this Catholic church is equivalent to a small military stronghold, and of course their garrisons must be well prepared, at least in the event of an enemy attack, they can have the power to counterattack, and support the silver mines, or the troops of Cape Town.

On either side of the church, twenty 24-pounder light cannons were still placed, and the artillerymen from the silver pit could come here at any time to rebuild the artillery position.

"Left?"

Looking up at the top of the hill in the distance, Zachari was also slightly stunned, the original six death knights had now disappeared, and he couldn't help but shake his head.

The provincial cavalry who had originally scouted had also returned, put the war horse under his crotch in the stable behind the church, and quickly came behind Zachari, bowing his head respectfully and saying, "Lord Bishop." ”

"Well, what did you find?"

Frowning slightly, Zachari looked at the two provincial cavalry and asked, "Why are there death knights chasing you, according to the results of previous investigations, this is the first time for you." ”

The two glanced at each other, and one of the provincial cavalrymen also bowed his head and explained: "Lord Bishop, we were indeed conducting routine reconnaissance, but we didn't expect that when we were about to approach the castle of the undead, those death knights came out of the castle and the ruined city. ”

"That's right, they just came out on their own, and they discovered us."

Another provincial cavalry was also adding, and said quickly: "They appear very quickly, not even much slower than ours, they don't look like heavy cavalry at all." ”

"Huh?" Zachari's brow furrowed, this was indeed a point of interest to him, and he couldn't help but ask, "They are marching faster than you?" ”

In the cavalry sequence of the Spanish Empire, the provincial cavalry was originally used for reconnaissance, or to defeat the enemy army or sweep away the cavalry, rather than the cuirassiers, who attacked at critical points in the battle to resolve the stalemate or expand the results of the battle.

The two provincial cavalrymen were also very self-aware, and after hesitating for a while, they nodded and said, "Our speed is only a little faster than them, and even in close combat, we are not opponents." ”

"Looks like it's starting to get uneasy here, too."

Zachari exhaled, nodded, and waved the two provincial cavalrymen down, and then the two of them would write a detailed briefing and send it to his office desk.

But he also had to start writing a briefing and send it to the sheriff's mansion in Cape Town, especially about the recent abnormalities in this undead plane, and it was even more necessary to deal with it carefully, after all, they only had this stronghold, and if they lost this stronghold and wanted to regain it, they would have to use human lives.

"Be careful."

Zachari turned his head and walked towards the church, and casually commanded, he still trusted his garrison soldiers.
