It all started in the morning.

The City of the Eagle is close to the City of Griffons and has a long border between them. Here in the Great Plains of Azeroth, the land is vast and sparsely populated, and many times it is necessary to patrol on horseback. Of course, the army at this time was far from being like the earth in later generations, it was just a simple military patrol, and they also had the duty of charging. The herders who lived by the grass did not pay their taxes on time, so the patrols of the various territories would collect taxes when they saw them while patrolling.

The weather was fine today, the grass was light, and the five cavalrymen of the City of Eagles rode their tall sarras slowly and leisurely to the west, and the leading officer could not help but joke with his men.

"Your wife is so beautiful, you calf only knows how to drink every day, maybe one day she will run away with someone else. ”

The officer rode on his black steed, chewing a stick of grass in his mouth, and muttered as he glanced at a dirty-looking subordinate next to him out of the corner of his eye.

"Cut, if she dares to run away with someone else, I'll catch up with them, screw both of their heads off, uh, no, break my mother-in-law's legs, and beat her every day to show her the cost of betraying me. ”

The subordinate said dismissively.

Although this cavalryman looks very ashamed of the people, his skills are very good, among these five people, his martial arts are the strongest, and the other four people together may not be able to beat him. For this reason, these guys make fun of him every day and take advantage of some lip service.

Hearing the filthy man's words, the other three cavalrymen couldn't help but let out loud boos, but this filthy-looking cavalryman was obviously a hob meat, and even laughed twice at everyone, which made the others laugh even more.

Suddenly, the sound of eager horses' hooves came from a distance, and the five horsemen immediately grabbed their mounts, put their hands on their weapons, and stared into the distance.

After a while, a young man dressed as a herdsman came out of the foot of the hill and ran towards them on horseback.

"It's Dassault, Solan's eldest son. ”

One of the cavalrymen recognized the young man who ran towards him and immediately addressed the officer.

The officer nodded, and with a wave of his right hand, the filthy-looking cavalryman immediately urged his horse to meet him, and at this time he no longer had the lazy appearance he had just had, but his waist was straight, like a javelin.

When the cavalryman led the herdsman over, the officer saw that the young man's face was a little bruised, so he took off the water bladder from his mount, handed it to the herdsman, and said, "Don't worry, drink saliva." ”

The herdsman grabbed the water bladder and drank it twice at once, before licking his lips and saying, "My lord, save us, the cavalry of Griffon City is coming, and he has surrounded our tribe and wants to move us over." ”

Hearing what the young herdsman said, the officer's brow furrowed, and he asked, "How many of them are there?"

"A lot, I did a rough calculation, there are about three hundred people, all cavalry, and the weapons and equipment are very good. ”

The herdsman replied.

"My lord, there are more than 300 of them, let's go back and report the news first. ”

A chubby cavalryman patted his horse, came to the officer's side, and whispered in his ear.

Seeing that there were only five cavalrymen in front of him, the young herdsman also knew that the disparity in strength was too great, so he just waited anxiously.

"We're definitely going to report back, but somebody needs to scout and see what they're really doing. ”

Naturally, the officer would not let the five of them go to death, but he still spoke his mind and immediately made the four men look at each other.

After a moment of silence, the dirty-looking cavalryman scolded: "Damn, let me go, even if you can't beat them, run, it is estimated that they will not be able to catch up." ”

Seeing that this guy took the initiative to ask for help, the others cast admiring glances at him, and the officer turned to the young herdsman and said, "Dassault, you go back with us, and let Uncle Bender go alone." By the way, I'm going to give Bender my horse and ride your horse with you in a moment. ”

The four horsemen and the herdsmen soon left, and the horseman, Bender, with one man and two horses, groped in the direction from which the young herdsman had come.

At this time, on the border of the Eagle City, a small tribe was in flames, and from time to time the cries of women and the screams of men sounded, and around the tribe, hundreds of knights in leather armor and scale armor were holding various weapons, surrounding this tribe.

"My lord, I just found out that a kid ran away. ”

A knight in silver fish-scale armor is reporting to a knight in full plate armor.

"Did you send someone to chase after you?"

The plate knight asked nonchalantly. His eyes were only staring at the women who had been driven out of the tribe by his men, and his eyes were lustful.

"Five soldiers have been sent to chase him, and it should be possible to catch him. ”

The knight hurriedly replied.

The Plate Knight bowed his head slightly, satisfied with this answer.

But after a while, he noticed that the knight's face had changed. Puzzled, he followed the gaze of the knight in fish scales, and saw that it was five cavalrymen running towards him, and his uniforms were in the style of Griffon City, apparently the five men who had just been sent out to pursue the herdsmen.

"My lord, I'm sorry, that little guy is too slippery, we chased after him for a long time, but he still ran away. ”

When the five cavalrymen returned, they immediately pleaded guilty to the officer of the Plate Knight.

The officer of the Plate Knight waved his whip and said nonchalantly: "Forget it, a little herdsman, he informed the patrol here, but the people who ask for food in Eagle City are no match for us in any way, now let these filthy fellows move, we must return to the castle before dinner." ”

The five horsemen, apparently knowing that the commander would say this, immediately rushed into the tribe with a shout, whipping the herdsmen with their horses.

At the foot of a hill not far from here, a cavalryman named Bender was lying on the edge of a large rock, staring at what was happening to the herdsmen's tribe.

"Holy shit, there are at least four hundred cavalry here, what kind of eyes is that little guy? Also, there are twenty hoplites here, which is already the number of large-scale knight group charges, and it is not easy to get them depending on the equipment they follow. ”

Bender looked at it and muttered to himself. He felt a cold sweat on his back at this time, his patrol was too far away from this group of enemies, both in terms of quantity and quality.

After looking at it for a while, he quietly climbed back from the rock, and waited until he was safe to get up and run. When he arrived at the place where the horse was tethered, he saw that he jumped on the war horse with both feet, and then swung his whip and whipped it down heavily, and the war horse neighed, and then led him and another group of war horses to gallop away into the distance.

Bender ran for a while, and suddenly saw a large amount of sand and dust in front of him, and he knew that this was a large number of cavalry, which should be the lord army of the Eagle City.

Soon, Lee's bear-like figure appeared in Bender's field of vision.
