Chapter 103

An hour later, after a brief setback, the White Horse Guard, who had grown stronger after a brief setback, rallied around me, and I picked out a very popular and all-round Kugit boy named Thorn Wood and Dong Xiao, and asked him to take Truman's place and command the other half of the White Guard.

Because that Reddils was released, the ambush plan in this valley was completely exposed. I don't dare to let them stay here anymore, after all, Fort St. Ruz Goda is a military town in Svadia, at least more than 8,000 regular Swadia troops are stationed, once Redirs goes back and reports the ambush, it is estimated that at least 4,000 regular troops will soon come to sweep up, and staying here any longer is tantamount to suicide.

And, more importantly, the purpose of our trip was only to connect Fort St. Ruz Godda with the direction of Paravon, so that Allah would not have to worry about the threat from this side during the siege. So the later the St. Ruz Goddaburg detects the anomaly, the better.

But this idiot Truman actually let Reddice go so quickly! Now Allah probably hasn't arrived at the city of Paraven yet, and at this time he was discovered by St. Ruz Goddaburg, and it is likely that this whole operation will be ruined!

I took a thousand white horse guards with me as I transitioned and thought about my current situation.

There is a distance of more than twenty miles from the valley where I am now to Fort St. Luz Godda, and from this valley that is less than a mile long, there is a hilly woodland in front of me.

I wiped my face and looked at the chopping beside me, this guy didn't speak.

"Him. Dong Xiao said: "He is estimated to have autism, since he was picked up by Boss Du seven years ago to join the White Horse Guard, he has not spoken, but he has a lot of work under his hands, Boss Du has always used him as a personal guard, and he was actually sent to you, it seems that your relationship with Boss Du is really good." ”

"That's," I nodded, silently saying to myself, my men had almost shot him before.

Suddenly, Chopping reined in his horse and looked quietly at a bush by the side of the road, his eyes as sharp as an eagle's.

I subconsciously followed and reined in the horse.

"What's wrong?" I asked.

Chopping Ming's answer was to slowly pull out the oriental-style long sword at his waist.

Dong Xiao immediately frowned, pulled out the bow from the bow pouch on the side of the saddle, and aimed in that direction.

The whole army immediately stopped, and at least two or three hundred cavalry bows were aimed at the bush.

Almost at the same time, I heard a roar: "!" and then the Svadian rode out in a hurry, and ran in the direction of Fort St. Ruz Godda.

As soon as the knight spoke, I could tell that he was Reddirs, and it seemed that he was going to hide here and give me a fatal blow, but I wondered why this guy didn't just run back to the castle to report the news, but wanted to play assassination here alone.

I was thinking about it when the slash suddenly smacked the horse's belly, and the white horse flew out like an arrow, and the long sword came out of its sheath with a sharp grinding sound.

Chop Ming rode a white steed abundant in the Kugit grassland, although the staying power and impact power are not good, but the speed and instant explosiveness are very good. Reddils, on the other hand, rode the maroon hunting horses that can be found everywhere in the central pastures of Swadia, and their attributes were average in all aspects, and they were slightly inferior in speed in comparison.

What's more, Raiders was still wearing a chainmail jacket with a smock, while Slash was just wearing a simple fur armor.

At a distance of a few hundred meters, Chop Ming caught up with Reddils, raising his hand and slashing at the back of Reddills's neck with a sword in his hand.

Raiders suddenly pulled the reins, and the horse hunter stood up, slashing his sword diagonally backwards. This one was unexpected by Chopping, so the strength on this sword was not yet full, and it was picked up by Reddils' sword, and Chopping almost fell off the horse.

But the steed had already grazed past Reddil's horse with a slashing sound.

Reddils easily fell from the front of the horse to the back of the horse, firmly taking the initiative, and with a flick of the reins, he caught up with the commander who had just sat down easily, and in the same position, slashed at the neck of the sword.

Slash turned his head and dodged out of Reddills' attack range, but Reddills suddenly raised his foot and kicked the horse in the neck of Slash's crotch. The horse screamed, stumbling and falling to the sand at high speed.

Chop Ming jumped lightly, only to jump off the horse's back the moment the horse stumbled, and galloped a few steps on the sand to stabilize his figure.

At this time, Reddils had already whistled proudly and rode away.

I watched from afar as Chop Ming silently stared at Redels' distant back, slowly withdrew my sword, turned and stepped onto the horse struggling to get up, and slowly ran back.

As soon as he ran in front of me, he made a series of gestures.

Dong Xiao immediately translated: "He said that Reddils is very strong, and the horse that chopped is lame and can't catch up." ”

I nodded and said, "Yes, but he still made a mistake." I pointed in the direction in which Reddirs had disappeared and said, "In order to ambush us, he did not go back to report the news, but laid an ambush here, delayed the time, and gave us very important information." ”

Dong Xiao scratched his head: "Intelligence?"

I took out a silver knife from my bosom, gestured in my hand, and said, "Actually, if I want to kill him, I can ...... him in a split second."

Then I saw Dong Xiao looking at me with disdain.

I smiled, there was always a time when this guy's eyes flew out. I went on to say: " Before the ambush began, he said that now is the knight assessment in the whole of Swadia, St. Luz Goddaburg must be busy with the knight assessment now, and may not be able to send people to deal with us, this is intelligence one; he does not go back to report now, but hides and ambushes, either indicating that he is an idiot, or indicating that he can only delay us with his own strength, his words have no weight, this is the greatest effort he can do for Fort St. Ruz Godda, this is intelligence two; as for intelligence three, he also showed us the combat effectiveness of the Svadian knights, which is the most important thing...... Intelligence three!"

Later in the evening, I led a thousand white horse guards three times in a row, and on all three occasions I was ambushed by Redels, and it seemed that he knew the terrain of the vicinity well, and on all three occasions he had already taken cover, waiting for me to take the bait.

Speaking of which, if it weren't for Chopping Ming by his side to protect him, he might have really been able to get his hands on it. Several times I've figured out the mysterious knife and hesitated to shoot it, but it hasn't.

But in this way, I also confirmed my suspicion, this Reddils, it really seems that he really has no say in St. Ruz Goddaburg.

Eventually, I had Chop Ming chase after me with a hundred White Horse Guards, and finally pushed Reddils out of my sight.

Then, Dong Xiao and I laid an ambush in a vast wooded area at the intersection of the two roads from Fort St. Ruz Goda to Fort Paraven and Fort Rende, which was mostly dense with pine trees and deep shrubs, and it was difficult to detect it.

But everything is good here, but there is an important problem, this forest area is too large, just with a thousand white horse guards in my hand, there is no way to effectively occupy it, and there is no way to completely block it, as long as there are people who are prepared in advance, there is a mental calculation or no intention, there is really a two or three percent chance of slipping out.

But there is no way, the ghost of that nasty Reddirs is still haunted, and if he discovers our final ambush site, it is likely that it will be the sweepers.

When everything was ready, they would come, and it is said that they had driven out for seven or eight miles, and had seen almost all the outlines of Fort St. Ruz Godda, before finally dispersing and lurking back.

As for the Redders, he ended up stumbling back to Fort St. Ruz Godda.

In fact, it was also a big gamble on my part to let Redells go back, betting on his right to speak in Fort Gorda, St. Ruz, if I really bet on the treasure, if he doesn't have any status and voice in it, we won't be in much danger, and I still have some chances to take this talent under my command.

It wasn't until evening, as night fell, and there was no great movement of men in the direction of Fort St. Ruz Godda, that I knew that I had made the right bet.

I watched the silent sword grinding outside the tent and nodded, this guy is a qualified guard, he doesn't say a word, he sharpens his sword all day except to protect me, or does whatever I tell them to do, and he can be in order. I even thought that when this incident was over, I would ask Du Fulong to bring him over and assign him to Sephiroth to train well.

I thought so, and suddenly I saw Slash stand up, the sword shining with cold light.

He looked in the direction of the east, as if he had heard something.

Only then did I hear the faint rumbling of horses' hooves.

Is it the army of Svadia ?!

I immediately rushed out of the tent, mounted my horse, and burrowed into the secret bushes, where almost all the white guards extinguished the campfire as fast as they could, and went into the secret woods.

After more than ten minutes, the sound of horses' hooves became louder and louder, and suddenly rushed in directly from outside the woods, and it was clear and clear.

I looked out through the cracks in the bushes and almost cried out.

At a glance, I saw hundreds of knights in black armor and black horses, each wrapped in a wide pitch-black cloak, under which their thick gold-rimmed black helmets and dark black steel boots were exposed, and steel hoes and maces hung uniformly from the saddles. They held steel shields in their left hands and sharp broad-bladed spears in their right hands, and their bodies were black all over their bodies, even the war horses under their crotches were black, without a trace of white hair, and the horses' chests, abdomen, and buttocks were also equipped with mounted vests, which looked extremely strong.

I couldn't be more familiar with this outfit, and even as soon as I saw it, I felt comfortable all over, and my heart that had been hanging high was also relaxed.

Black Knight. The Black Knight of the Dark Order!

The Black Knights quickly spotted the embers of the campfire we had left behind, and they brushed the floor and raised their steel shields, carefully searching in all directions.

I noticed that some of the White Horse Guards had drawn their bows, but they knew that it was useless to simply ride a scimitar against such a well-armed black knight.

I laughed, and the steed under my crotch trotted out of the hidden bushes.

"Brethren!" I said with a smile, "whose men are you?"

The Black Knights were barely stunned, and immediately two of them approached me from the left and right, coldly flashing a cold light under their masks.

The blade of the broad-bladed spear was pointed at my neck, and a hoarse voice asked coldly, "General Emmons?"

I was stunned, when will I become a general? But I nodded.

"What identification?" the hoarse voice continued.

I thought about it and pulled out the flame pendant from my collar that symbolized my identity. Back in the house of Uxhall Ruth, when I fainted, Tramercino changed me to a pendant of the First Inquisitor.

Seeing this special pendant at a glance, the black knight with a hoarse voice immediately put away his spear, jumped off his horse, knelt on one knee, and said in a deep voice: "Ling Ling, the leader of the fifteenth brigade of personal guards, has seen Lord Emmons!"

The Dark Order's cathar is very different from the military system of the Five Great Powers in that it is divided into three arms: cavalry, infantry, and archers from the most basic combat squad, which is extremely common at the level of a squad of three hundred people, and at the squadron level, it is only composed of five squads. But this is only one of the formations, in a squadron-scale battle, there is often a squadron leader, the three arms are rematched, divided into a team of 500 people each, the infantry team and the bow team, according to the convention, the first squad of the personal guard captain, the infantry captain and the bow and crossbow captain will serve as the commander of the 500-person personal guard team, infantry team, bow and crossbow team, at this time, a squadron becomes composed of three 500 people.

As for the battle of the size of the brigade, it can be composed of three battle squadrons of 1,500 men.

So from Ling Ling's self-proclaimed "Captain of the Fifteenth Brigade Personal Guard Squadron", I understood that this time it was not just the hundred or so people in front of me, but at least a personal guard squadron composed of 1,500 elite black knights!

There were fifteen hundred Black Knights alone, not to mention the others?

The Fifteenth Squadron is Sakya's men, I know very well, but the Fifteenth Squadron has been inexplicably disabled in the previous Al-Dedigar Booby Trap, but where did so many people come from?

Ling Ling seemed to have guessed my question, and said respectfully, "We are the children of the old cathar army who were specially transferred by the High Priest from the overseas Drua Continent to cross the sea, and we are now allocating to fill the losses of the Thirteenth Brigade. A few days ago, I received an order from the Inquisition that our Overseers had been offended by the Swadians, and that I should come to the aid of the new Fifteenth Brigade, under the command of General Emmons. A few of us are the first batch of pioneers, followed by an infantry squadron led by Captain Wuke, and a bow and crossbow squadron led by Captain Tex, who will arrive at noon tomorrow. ”

I trembled as if I had been beaten with chicken blood, this is a large group of people, this is four thousand five hundred elite old cathar soldiers, with them, am I still afraid of St. Luz Goddaburg, if it weren't for Wuke, they would not arrive until noon tomorrow, I would have gone to defeat St. Luz Goddaburg now!
