"Fear and bravery are close at hand, and they coexist with each other, and those who rush into the enemy's position know the truth best. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info”

Leo has never been a hesitant person, and he does not deny that part of the initiative to join the battle this time is that his soldiers are indeed at a disadvantage, and partly because he is affected by the atmosphere in the battlefield.
Now that the decision has been made, Leo will never regret it, compared to the ordinary war horse, Killy, who is nearly two meters high, can be called a behemoth, with Leo rushed straight into the middle of the enemy army with ten thousand strengths, the poor enemy infantry fell to the ground in the impact like a cut wheat, and in the blink of an eye, Leo had cleared a clearing for the Storm Wings that followed behind him.
Ignoring the wailing enemies on the ground, Leo's skillful riding skills allowed Leo to skillfully control his mount and avoid most of the panicked stabbing weapons, and occasionally a few hits were also blocked or slid away by the sturdy horse armor on Kiely's body, and he turned slightly sideways to the right, and the paladin sword in Leo's hand aimed at his kind for the first time, and swung it firmly.
"Poof!" Like the muffled sound of opening a can, a head with a frightened face rose to the sky, and endured the feeling of nausea in his chest, Leo guided the mount to rush back and forth in the crowd, and as he gradually entered the combat state, Leo's terrifying attributes were finally released to the fullest, or cut or stab, and there was almost no one under him, and the shield in his left hand had become a deadly weapon at some point, and the consequences of being hit head-on by a car as long as the shield were not much better than being hit head-on by a car in the impact state.
And the experienced hunters who followed the Storm Wings, although they did not have complete protection, but because there was almost no physical consumption before, they joined the battlefield as a new force and cooperated with the protection of the champion swordsman to continuously and efficiently strangle the enemy, and the champion swordsman himself relied on good equipment, and the exchange ratio between the enemy and the enemy in the battle has been maintained at 1:5 or even higher, when both sides have been exhausted, the addition of Leo this new force has brought the battlefield back to balance in a short period of time.
In this era, except for knights, almost no nobles will personally join the battle, even if they are defeated, they have many privileges as nobles, so after Leo joined the battle, these commoner-born swordsmen were very excited after being surprised, and the already heavy long sword in their hands swung vigorously again, and the body that was almost out of strength seemed to be a little lighter, and in the crazy shouting and killing, they actually pushed the retreating battle line back to its original position.
On the other side, on the battlefield of the knights, the punishment knight gradually controlled the enemy knights who still had the advantage in numbers to move closer to the direction of the woods, abandoning all gorgeous movements, the swordsmanship of the punishment knights was as simple as their spear sprint, and it was their pursuit to kill the opponent with the shortest time and the most effortless action, even the White Moon Knight leader Akmund was also slashed back by Finn's three swords in the battle, hiding in the crowd and commanding no longer dared to show his head to provoke.
The form of the battlefield slowly tended to favor Leo, how could Leo, who had been holding back until now, let go of the hard-won opportunity, the long sword slashed and flew a throwing spear, Leo shouted loudly in the chaos against the baron who stayed on the mountain, waiting for the order, "It's now, Leicester, it's now!" ”
Seeing that the soldiers were killed and wounded heavily, the baron, who was several times more anxious than Leo, finally waited for the moment when he turned over the hole cards, and heard Leo shouting, the baron did not hesitate to give an order directly to the attendants around him, and with a banner painted with two-handed swords waving in the hands of the squire, the highland swordsmen who were ambushed by Leo before the battle finally began their killing feast.
Edward was extremely depressed for an hour, seeing that the war began, as mercenaries, they could not participate in the battle, and the brave genes buried deep in the blood of the highlanders made him almost unbearable to rush out with people several times, especially when his own infantry phalanx gradually showed disadvantage, this impulse was particularly obvious, but fortunately, the words that Leo had confessed before in his mind made him press it down, and he adhered to the creed of loyal and trustworthy mercenaries, after seeing their benefactor, the benevolent lord personally go into battle, This heart-rending endurance has almost reached its peak.
Fortunately, the long-awaited banner representing the Highland swordsmen was finally waved on the hillside, and after making sure that he was right, Edward and his other 49 companions let out a battle cry characteristic of the Highlanders, like a 50-haired lion rushing out of the hidden woods, their first target was the Knights of the White Moon and other lords who had been fighting for a long time and had lost their proud speed.
Short-distance running and small-scale maneuvering, if the highlanders on this continent consider themselves second, almost no nation dares to boast of being the first, a high-handed sword slashed down like lightning in the horrified gaze of a noble knight belonging to a certain nobleman, Edward wiped the blood splashed on his face at will, and didn't look at the corpse of the man and horse broken in two on the ground, and the light little jump flashed the long sword hastily stabbed by another knight beside him, and the weapon in his hand was waved high for the second time......
This is the last straw that broke the camel's back, if the strength of the punishment knight still makes the duke have the determination to fight, the tenacity of the champion swordsman has exceeded his expectations, after Leo joined the storm wings who also sacrificed his life to join the battle, the aristocratic coalition led by the duke already had the intention of withdrawing from the temporary truce, and before they could discuss and make a decision, the appearance of the highland swordsman became the final blow of the bloody throat.
Chaos, incomparable chaos, this is the current situation of the knights to which the duke belongs, panic, despair, these expressions that should not usually be linked to noble knights, all appeared on the faces of the members of the White Moon Knights at this time, and in a hurry, many knights forgot to block the attacks of the knights when they subconsciously turned around, and they died in such an unknown way, and there were even knights who collided with each other in the movement of their mounts and caused such a ridiculous thing to happen.
How could the punishment knight let go of such a good opportunity, under the leadership of Finn, almost all the knights took back their one-handed swords and shields in unison, drew their broad-bladed two-handed greatswords from their backs, and faced the enemy who had no intention of resisting, and cooperated with the highland swordsmen to speed up the killing.
Captain Akmund, who was already retimidated in his timidity, desperately blocked the slash from a punishment knight, and even knocked down a knight servant in front of him in the barely accelerated speed of his horse, and he was already frightened, even if he was accused of dishonor, he was not willing to stay in this hellish battlefield for a while, but unfortunately, the armor was obviously different from that of ordinary knights, and he was already firmly targeted by Edward at the beginning.
Although Edward, who has been living on mercenary for many years, no longer needs to rely on the life of the enemy leader in exchange for a meager bounty, how can he let such a big fish slip away from his eyes after years of habit.
The shield had already shattered, and Akmund, who was lying on horseback and galloping out of the battlefield, did not wait to look behind to observe the head of the pursuer and turn back, he felt a huge wind pressure and whistling in his ears, and the corner of his half-twisted head only had time to see a dazzling metal reflection in the corner of his eye, "Die!" Edward, who was covered in blood like a demon god, touched the hard leather armor that was dented in his chest, staggered to his feet, and then lowered his head and spurted out a large mouthful of blood, in order to prevent Akmund's escape, Edward relied on his burly body to resist the collision of the war horse, and looked at the knight's corpse split in half under his feet, "Ahhh ~~" Edward held his sword in both hands and frantically vented the excitement of killing, probably Akmund never imagined that as a powerful knight, he would one day die like this at the hands of a mercenary who was lowly in his eyes.
With the death of Akmund, the knights of the aristocratic coalition in the chaos had a greater panic, and everyone gave up the idea of fighting, and did not hesitate to kick and beat their mounts desperately to escape, but how could there be such a simple thing, in the melee, the two-handed swords that accompanied the punishment knights fell again and again, and only 7 of the swan knights were left with a dull roar, and the highland swordsmen slashed vigorously, and the knights and servants who could really escape were very few after all, The rest of the knights, who had spent a lot of money on the Duke and other nobles, were killed one by one in desperation.
