Chapter 48: The Knights Templar
Lynn enters the system and selects the Explosive Redemption option.
A moment later, in the square in front of Lynn, the space fluctuated violently, and pillars of knight-like light emitting milky white light gradually emerged.
Columns of horses of black or white or mottled coats, and cavalrymen of different skin colors, black or white, emerged from the pillar of light.
War horses are tamed horses similar to those raised in the riverlands, rather than the sturdy northern horses.
It was unclear if Lynn had anything to do with his choice to recruit cavalry in the Riverlands.
What makes a horse special is that it has a long slow walk, which makes it more comfortable to ride.
Compared with the military horses ridden by the golden-robed guards that Lynn tried to ride before, they are slightly shorter, not as strong and beautiful as the military horses, but they are also heroic and full of energy.
The cavalrymen on the war horses were all holding their heads high, showing their strong muscles, swords at their waists, and horses and shields in their hands.
The biggest advantage of the Level 2 cavalry compared to the Level 1 cavalry is that it can have the ability to hold a pistol and a shield, and it has a great improvement in defensive and offensive attributes.
This is also the reason why Lynn did not explode knights in the fishing village harbor in the first place, without strong armor and weapons, cavalry is actually a very vulnerable class.
Shocking blasting process.
Even let Lynn and the 3 soldiers of the Cavalry Regiment beside him bow their heads slightly.
To pay due tribute to the cavalry, the king of land warfare.
Lynn looked at these newborn cavalrymen with high spirits, as if looking at his own children, and his heart swelled with infinite pride.
Two hundred cavalrymen were silent in the square, staring at Lynn with their eyes like torches, and shouting,
"Knights, I've seen my master!"
Lynn didn't skimp on the points in his hand, 600 points were exchanged for 200 cavalry level 2 cavalry, and another 300 points were spent to exchange 200 knight chain mail to the explosive system.
Lynn looked at a tall and burly cavalryman with yellowish skin in front of him and said, "What's your name?"
"Lovren, master!"
Lynn looked at him, "Lovren, now that you have been appointed commander of the cavalry, the knighthood of the Knights, the Knights Templar. ”
"Lovelon, obed!"
The 200 knights of the Knights Templar were sensitive, and immediately shouted in unison.
"Long live Lord Lynn!"
"Long live the Knights Templar!"
Lynn waved her hand and pointed to the rows of chain mail stacked in front of her.
"Armor!"
"Whew!"
Lovren repeated: "Knights Templar, armor!"
"Whew!"
A set of cavalry armor consisted of a vest to protect the horse's chest from being injured by a rejected horse, a chain cuirass worn by the cavalry itself, a skirt to protect the legs like wings apart, and chainmail boots.
Lynn stood in front of the altar in the square, waiting for her cavalry to finish armoring.
Then, with the Knights Templar, he slowly left the square and rushed to the ferry port of Qianmian Island.
Lynn didn't notice that on the back of the giant fish beam wood.
The tree faded and withered, and grew new skin as white as bones, and a few leaves fell from the ground in a deep red color, like the leaves of a thousand blood-stained palms.
The group came to the ferry port on the island.
Lynn chose to spend 30 points and redeem it for an oared troop carrier.
This is an item that was unlocked in the Merchant Ships of the Explosive System when the system was upgraded to Level 2, and it also includes various medium-sized armed ships.
The horses were led by the Templars onto troop transports, and sixteen horsemen rowed their paddles.
There are 50 people in one transfer, and everyone crosses the lake in four times.
Everything is finally in place.
Lynn breathed a sigh of relief.
For the sake of concealment, this bombing operation was delayed for more than two hours.
He stepped onto the captured golden-robed guard horses, and the Knights Templar behind him were already in procession.
The group marched in the direction of Harrenhal.
Compared to the winding and potholed road of the King's Road, which is rolled by horse-drawn carriages, it is different.
The road leading to Harrenhal is open and flat.
Lynn rode forward this time, and it felt much more relaxed.
The sun burrowed into the dark clouds, and the glow of the sun withdrew from the sea of clouds.
There was silence on the ground, save for the rumbling sound of horses' hooves from Lynn and his knights running across the wasteland.
After about two hours of riding, Lynn followed the marks left by Hood and finally caught up with the squire in front of him.
The cavalry team that emerged behind him almost startled Hood and Duncan and their party.
When they saw that it was their lord Lord Lynn who was protecting the cavalry in the middle, they all showed expressions of surprise in disbelief.
"Your Excellency!"
Hood, the leader of the guards, came to Lynn's horse and helped him hold the horse's leash.
Lynn stopped his horse, and the soldiers of the 200th Cavalry Regiment behind him also pulled the reins and stood still.
The Templars' disciplined and forbidden performance made the two legendary knights, Duncan and Shifu, slightly moved, and a look of envy appeared on their faces.
Lynn took their expressions to heart.
Let the three infantry of the Xiao Cavalry Regiment who made a temporary cameo behind him dismount, and said to the three henchmen: "Get on the horse and talk." ”
When the three of them heard this, their eyes lit up, and they were not polite, and each chose a captured golden-robed guard war horse and turned over.
Soon, the three of them came to Lynn's left and right sides in parallel.
Lynn looked at Hood, the leader of the guards on the left, and Duncan and Shifu, the knights on the right, with a calm expression.
"Well, the reinforcements I've brought in will be able to get Miss Stark back before Harrenhal?"
Lynn stroked the horse's sideburns and laughed,
Hood flattered, "Your Excellency, be wise." ”
Shifu said, "Lannisters, it's time to pay the price for attacking the Night's Watch. ”
Duncan looked at Lynn's back, fearing that the master he served would not be able to save people from these Lannisters in the Riverland, whose territory was far north.
Now, looking at the cavalry regiment behind him, he secretly sighed that he had underestimated his master.
For a moment, this legendary knight felt ashamed of himself.
Lynn called Lovren forward and introduced, "This is General Lovren, the leader of this Knights Templar, and you will be colleagues from now on." ”
Several people exchanged pleasantries for a while.
Lynn then asked, "Where is the Lannister army now?"
"My lord, we have just entered the valley ahead, and we have been following them for a mile, and we have not been noticed. Hood said.
"Well, it's getting late, and the valley below is the best place to camp, and unless they plan to travel overnight, they must be ready to set up camp. ”
Lynn looked ahead, and not far away was a deep hilly valley, presumably once a horse farm, with all the trees cut down and only a fertile meadow with green shade.
Encamped in such a valley with a wide view, unless it was a cavalry charge, the Lannisters would have had enough time to spot the enemy coming down from above.
And be fully combat-ready.
Lynn sneered,
Amoriel Lodge, who was in charge of sweeping the Riverlands, must not have imagined that at this time, a heavily armed cavalry would emerge in the Riverlands.
He thought for a moment and ordered, "Lovren, send scouts to the valley to reconnoitre, and if the enemy army is camping, report back in time." ”
"Yes, sir. ”
Lynn led the Templar cavalry regiment to slow down and move slowly, so that the foot attendants behind him could barely keep up.
After a while, Tanma reported back to the military.
The Lannister army was identified and was encamped in the valley.
At this time, Lynn's army had come not far from the entrance of the valley.
Lynn's face fell silent, and he ordered Lovren: "You lead 150 cavalry of the Knights Templar, line up at the entrance of the valley and wait for orders, and prepare to raid the enemy camp head-on." ”
"Yes, sir. ”
Lovren let out a howl, and the Templar forces rode up to follow.
"Duncan Knight, Stone Knight. ”
"Your Excellency. ”
"You two will each lead 25 cavalry, make a detour to the side slope of the valley and stand by, and take the horn as an order, waiting for the opportunity to rush into the enemy prisoner camp, and make sure to rescue the daughter of the Stark family safely. ”
"Yes, sir. ”
Shifu and Duncan stroked their chests and saluted, took the longbow handed by the archers, put it on its back, and hung a quiver full of arrows on its waist, and took the order.
Lynn took out the pre-prepared mission reward item from his bosom, the Silver Bull Horn.
Hand it to Hood, the leader of the guards, "Hood, leader of the guards, stand by and blow the trumpet." ”
Take the horn of the silver bull with both hands,
Hood's expression was solemn, and his heart was excited, and a great battle was about to start with the sound of the horn in his hand.
