Chapter 34: Charge, Knight

"I don't like it. Catherine said softly, "Although many knights are intoxicated by it, I don't like it. ”

In the valley now, the atmosphere of war is gradually rising. Although most of the city guards were novices, they were usually well-trained, and when they walked to the valley, they jumped off their horses neatly and prepared to engage in battle. For non-knight classes, the ability to fight on horses is much lower than that of foot combat, and it is better to give up the mobility advantage of horses than to fight on horses.

The convoy was divided into three parts, the first of which consisted of two reinforced passenger carriages, the members of which had been transferred to the other carriages long before entering the valley, so that there were only ten excellent archery guards in these two carriages, each with a bow and arrow poking their heads out of the open windows, ready to meet the enemy in front and on both sides. The second part consisted of three other fully loaded coaches and Freya's car, three large cars enclosing Freya's luxury carriage inside, and the carriage was further outer, with ten city guards on each side holding swords on the left and right. At the end were the gift wagons and baggage wagons, and the four wagons were forty or fifty meters away from the convoy in front, which was just the right distance to be less susceptible to the impact of the battle in front of them, and they could get immediate rescue from the front when attacked. As for the front of the team, there are only a few high-level professionals who belong to the leader, but even these few people are enough, and even if you say that except for the eight silver-level bandits, any of the rest of the low-level personnel can be easily solved.

But even so, the atmosphere remained solemn. Everyone knows that the opponent is not an idiot and will not expect these miscellaneous bandits to cause much trouble for themselves, there will definitely be a follow-up offensive hidden in it, just like the previous two days.

"A lot of people don't like it. Pannis shrugged his shoulders and said lightly: "Even knights, there are many people who hate war, and the stronger they are, the more they hate war." In the face of war, the blood is boiling, and it is destined to be just the reaction of ordinary people. ”

"Why?" Catherine asked, puzzled, "I feel like this is the tendency, but I don't understand why." ”

"Do you understand?" said Pannis, giving Catherine a puzzled look. He asked strangely, "Do you feel your blood boiling when you see a group of babies fighting in groups and beating flesh and blood?" Would you like that magical scene?"

"No normal person likes that. Catherine smiled wryly and said, "I think it's quite normal, so I definitely won't like it." ”

"There are still a lot of normal people in the world. Pannis sat on the horse facing backwards, leaning his back against the arc of the horse's neck, and said leisurely: "The stronger the strength." The more those people in the war are like babies, the difference between the strength of the two sides and the bravery of the soldiers, for the powerful professional, is nothing more than the difference between crushing and crushing very pleasant, what is really worth paying attention to is only when you meet the other party's high-level professionals, but then the nature has changed, it is no longer a war, but just a battle between two or a few people, and there is no excitement of blood boiling. ”

"It's exactly like you say. Captain Erlan said nostalgically, "I'm not a knight but a warrior. But when he was young, he was also born in the grassroots army of the Farar Empire, and participated in many small border battles. At the beginning, I was still very keen on things like glory and victory, but after I was promoted to the gold rank, I found that the enemies around me were good comrades and comrades-in-arms, and there was no difference between fighting with children, even if I stood there and didn't need to fight to protect myself, I might not be able to hurt me, after all, the gap between high-level and low-level physical fitness is too big. So since then, I left the army and never went back. But. I heard that the battle of the dead a hundred years ago was fierce, like a war that really belonged to professionals. ”

"I don't know, I haven't experienced it. Pannis scratched his neck lazily and looked straight at the sky with a smile: "A hundred years." It's been a long time, how can a young man like me know. ”

"And then, you're in the City of Knowledge?" Lina, who was the most curious, couldn't help but ask Erlan.

"Well, sort of. "I was in my forties at the time, and I had completely lost hope of making a legend, so I didn't have much motivation and just wanted to continue to travel for years. I wanted to see more of the world in my lifetime, but one year I traveled to the capital of knowledge and was fascinated by this place, and I never left. ”

"Indeed, the Holy Capital is arguably the best city in the world. Vivien agreed, "I don't think anyone would want to leave here if there was no other reason." ”

"Well, the chatting time is over, and the enemy can already be seen. Catherine got up from her horse, looked out into the valley in the distance, and said, "It is time for me to prepare for battle." ”

"Is it okay for you to go alone, Miss Catherine. Erlan asked with some concern: "In case the opponent has an opponent above the gold rank hiding in the team, it is easy to be in danger." ”

"Don't worry, don't worry. Pannis waved his hand: "Even if there is a hidden enemy, it will not be there, believe in Catherine's strength, she is qualified to take over the knight of the heroic banner of the year." ”

"Don't worry, I'm going. Catherine smiled, grabbed the rifle she had borrowed from the group, and urged her horse to step in small steps, and began to accelerate slowly.

"May glory and victory always be by your side. Pannis lifted his coat and covered his face, blocking the sunset that was shining directly on his eyes, and also blocking his expression and gaze: "My Valkyrie." ”

In the distance, the enemy also moved. The other party was much better than expected, at least not in chaos at the beginning, but lined up in the valley. The infantry is in the middle of the ranks, although the weapons are disorganized, but at least they can be neatly lined up, more than 20 cavalrymen are divided into two halves and lined up on both sides of the team, this is a standard attack formation, the cavalry on both flanks drives the face of the enemy's defensive line, and then the infantry frontal assault the enemy's position, the enemy is routed at one time. Of course, if it doesn't go well, the formation changes slightly, and the infantry changes the line sideways to draw the enemy defense, and the cavalry on both flanks looks for loopholes to tear through the defense line with impact. It was surprising that a group of chaotic thieves, a temporarily pulled up raiding team, could form such a standard formation.

Catherine's horse was running slowly, and although the speed was slowly increasing, it was not fast overall. Seeing that the opposing team had assembled in two minutes, Catherine knew that the enemy's morale would not be as weak as expected, and perhaps the battle would drag on longer than planned. But it doesn't matter, everything is planned, and even if the enemy becomes stronger, the knight will always be fearless.

The distance of 1,500 meters was quickly shortened to a thousand meters, and the closer the two sides go, the calmer Catherine's face became. When the horse's speed increased to a critical point, Catherine had a beautiful smile on her face, lowered her head, and kissed the riding gun in her hand intently, and when she raised her head again, her face had become indifferent, and she coldly put down the mask of her helmet, and pressed her upper body down on the horse's back. Although Catherine's horse is not a professional war horse, it seems to have a common mind, and when Catherine lowers her body, she does not need to give any command, and the horse consciously makes a vertical leap, and the speed increases instantly, and rushes straight to the enemy's position with the sound of the wind.

"She's going to charge, is she crazy?"

"She's only one person. ”

"Stop her, don't let her go as fast as possible. ”

"Don't panic, steady, be ready to bear the impact, don't mess up, remember that whoever turns his head and runs away first at this time must be the first to die. ”

"She should be one of the leaders of the other party, she should be the strongest among the enemies, defeat her, we are already half of the victory, everyone fights. ”

There was a moment of confusion in the ranks of the enemies facing Catherine, but they were quickly regained by the scolding of the various bandit leaders, who seemed to have turned into well-trained soldiers and were experiencing their first battle.

"Ha, hey!" Catherine didn't arrive, but the voice came first. A thunderous roar emanated from Catherine's throat, and a powerful sound wave shot out of Catherine's mouth, spreading in all directions with a powerful destructive force. This is the most standard application of the knight's warcry, which is to attack first with the warcry on the way to charge, shake the enemy's courage with the roar, and disrupt the enemy's defenses with sound waves.

"Quick, stop her. A voice shouted, "Don't let her rush straight into the central line." ”

The cavalry to the left and right immediately moved, and part of them attacked Catherine from both sides along the arc. But Catherine didn't even glance at their attack, and the hand holding the gun pressed lightly on the horse's back, and the horse immediately moved up suddenly, so that the attacker could only chase after Catherine's back in vain.

The other part of the cavalry moved directly laterally according to the commander's intentions, attacking from the front, intending to block Catherine's path with her body, forcing her to charge at a reduced speed. It has to be said that these people chose the most correct way to block, but they are also the most unlucky people.

The corners of Catherine's mouth curled up in a cold arc, and her body burned with the brilliance of her fighting spirit. No, not only on the body, but even the mounts under him are covered in fighting energy. This is the most important characteristic of knights, in battle man and horse are one, with the same defense and impact, any attack, whether it is against a man or a horse, the result is the same.

The moment the two sides made contact, screams came from the mouths of several cavalrymen who chose to block the way. They were lucky not to be stabbed by the lance, or Catherine deliberately tweaked the direction of the lance to avoid a direct attack on several people. But then it was not so lucky, and the scraping accidents continued to occur, and every enemy on horseback in front of Catherine had a close contact with her mount, and then was knocked into the air with a clear sound of fractures, let out a painful and miserable cry, and then fell to the ground, and rolled out of bruises all over her body, and lay motionless on the ground.
