Chapter 106: Surrender or Don't Kill
Evelyn's mercenaries rushed towards the knights' camp in columns, and after these days of training, they no longer babbled as before, but moved forward in silence, but the power contained in silence was far greater than before.
The soldiers on this side of the knight's camp saw this group of solemn and terrifying warriors and exclaimed loudly.
However, they were greeted by a rain of arrows.
Evelyn gathered the archers to use, and the archers of the three squads reached the projectile range, under the command of the dark elf warriors, according to the unified password, the bow was bent and thrown while running, and the general elves could do five steps and one shot, and the mercenaries could only do ten steps and one shot. And there is basically no accurate head. But these arrows put a lot of pressure on the opponent. This is the elves' unique archer charge suppression tactic, in the hands of a large number of elven rangers, it has a very strong suppression and cover effect, and can quickly carry out the first round of killing of the enemy.
The mercenaries may not have one-fifth of the effect of the elves, but their momentum is not much weaker. The makeshift camps set up by the knights had no fortifications, so most of the enemy had to hide from the arrows in tents, carts, and the like. The knights and squires were fine, but most of the soldiers were peasants requisitioned from the territory. The better ones have some combat experience. Able to do the work of spearmen and archers. , almost all of them are rookies who have just undergone some military training, the farmer who just put down his hoe yesterday and wears leather armor, and the unemployed vagrant who is idle in the town. These people were very afraid of bows and arrows, and when the arrows they shot were completely inaccurate, they all cowered in places where they could dodge the arrows.
The knights knew very well that after the previous attack on the camp, the spirit of ordinary soldiers had been tense to the limit. In such a situation where you can only be beaten, if you can't turn the situation around, the team can easily collapse. They urged the soldiers to shoot arrows to fight back, or to prepare for engagement. But their urging and coercion are far less deterrent than the constant rain of arrows falling from the sky.
After four rounds of running and shooting. The Dark Elf commanded the mercenary shooters to start standing in a volley, and this time the accuracy was much higher. The soldiers of the opposing camp were finally organized by a knight and began to line up. But after being shot down six or seven people one after another, they all dispersed in a hurry.
In a situation where the enemy is scattered. Evelyn led the group closer and closer, and she and a team of more than a dozen warriors skilled in horsemanship rushed into the camp first. The knight who organized the defense was cut in two without taking two moves in her hand. The riders then swept through the lines of the enemy archers, killing the last of their counter-attacks.
"The enemy's master is in the west!" shouted a Dark Elf ranger, "they're engaged with Kai'Sa's team!"
"Go, give them a blow from behind!" shouted Evelyn with her sword raised. Then her horse team, and the infantry behind her, rushed towards the enemy, who was still struggling in the vine fields.
In order to fight the vines on the ground, no one rode horses, which put them at a great disadvantage in front of Evelyn and others, who borrowed horsepower.
And the poor low-tier knights had not yet recovered from the torment of the Dandelions of Hell when they were attacked from both front and back by Evelyn and Kaisha's team.
Evelyn had her sights on one of the most vindictive mid-tier knights, he was the first to recover, and even though his eyes were still full of tears, he had already regained most of his combat strength. Evelyn rode past him, her fighting spirit and horsepower combined, and she sent him flying with a single slash. The latter scrambled to his feet and swung his sword to cut off Evelyn's horse's legs. However, Evelyn had foreseen that she had already lifted the reins, so that the front hooves of the war horse under her were raised, and she easily avoided the slash. Evelyn followed with a vertical slash that knocked the barely resisting knight to the ground again. She snorted softly, and pressed her hand lightly on the shoulder of the war horse, this light, but it was the secret technique of sharing the fighting qi that the dark elf ranger specially used on the mount, and a wave of earth fighting qi was transmitted from her body to the front hooves of the war horse, and then the war horse stepped on the hooves like a sharp heart, and fell on the knight's arm.
The knight screamed and his arm broke.
Evelyn leaned forward, sword in hand, and slashed off his head. She picked up the knight's head with her long sword and shouted, "Earl Green is dead, and your leader is dead, surrender and don't kill, surrender and don't kill!"
The other warriors also shouted: "The count is dead, the leader is dead, raise your hands, surrender and don't kill!"
"Surrender, surrender, surrender!" was the voice throughout the camp.
"We surrender!" Under tremendous pressure, a knight finally threw down his weapon and raised his hands.
"I surrender, don't kill me. A knight's squire, who had been knocked off by the Dark Elf warriors, simply raised his hand, lowered his head, and closed his eyes, but the next moment a scimitar still slashed into his neck.
The remaining stubborn guys, like some small fish and shrimp, were powerlessly destroyed under the combined blows of two huge waves.

Before the early hours of the morning, Xiao Chen saw the captives who had been escorted by Evelyn in the courtyard of the Baron's Mansion, where the fire had been extinguished. Most of these captives have lost their souls and do not seem to have recovered from today's defeat. And the dark elves and mercenary warriors who escorted them were all arrogant, forming a strong contrast with them.
"Thank you! Well done, Evelyn. ”
The Dark Elf Ranger, who has lived for many years, is still a little excited at this time, "If it weren't for the fact that our warriors couldn't stop killing, there should be a few more prisoners." ”
"It's a battlefield, and no one can criticize them. What about our casualties?"
"Eight mercenary warriors were sacrificed, one of whom was a low-rank. ”
"Well, you're doing a great job. Xiao Chen turned to Roger again, "With these, how many prisoners do we have?" ”
"All the things we have captured add up, there are still two mid-rank fighters and four low-rank fighters left. Among them was a baron. The rest are knighted knights. In addition, there were fifteen knightly squires and eighty-four ordinary soldiers. Roger reported to Xiao Chen.
"The knights and knights' squires should be locked up in the dungeons of the Baron's Palace first, and you can ask the Duke of Parsa for ransom in the future. The other soldiers will send someone to watch it first, and tomorrow they will seize the time to screen it, deal with what should be handled, absorb what should be absorbed, and let go of what should be released. ”
Xiao Chen looked at the list in his hand and said, "There is also a Viscount of Amplar here, an ordinary person?"
"Yes. He was in charge of managing the logistics for Earl Green, and when we set the fire just now, he counted the food and grass in the backyard and was not injured. He didn't dare to run away, and I caught him. Roger replied.
"Bring it and see it, maybe I'll be useful. ”
Viscount Amplal was a middle-aged man who was almost fifty years old, and his body was somewhat blessed, like a merchant more than a nobleman. He stood in front of Xiao Chen stiffly, smiling hard with a shy face.
Xiao Chen looked at him with burning eyes: "Your Excellency, you should be clear about today's situation. In a few days, I need you to bring a message to the Duke of Greenwood......"
