The Paladin's mount is produced in a vast grassland in the heart of the continent near the Songhai Empire. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info There are many good horses here, with fast running speed, good endurance and high gravity, which is especially suitable for knights' mounts. And the paladin's military horse is the best among them. The average hoplite had three horses, one for the march, one for battle, and one for carrying heavy knight armor. And the paladin only needs two horses, only one horse to carry armor and one horse to transport knights. The paladin's military horse can carry lightly armed knights for a long time without affecting the battle. This reduces the logistical requirements of a large number of paladins, and two thousand knights can reduce the number of horses by two thousand. That's a lot of food spending.

Two hundred sturdy horses quickly crossed the river, and a little farther away was the town of Carlos, the target of this time. Abby asked all the paladins on the expedition not to wear heavy armor this time, and asked the paladins who were lightly armed to act in a harassing way, so they simply went out on one horse and one horse.

According to forward spies, the town of Carlos was not numbered by a small number of soldiers, two squads of light infantry and an equal number of Oslan civilians. Perhaps because it was so close to Tallinnburg, the Land of the Sun didn't care too much about this small grain production base.

The paladins easily evaded the three bands of patrol cavalry of the Land of the Sun and lurked in the woods near the town of Carlos before noon. Here, the sentry on the top floor of the center of Carlos town can already be seen.

Abby rode his horse in front of the paladin: "When you rush in, you must be careful not to hurt the civilians. Be sure to fight quickly and try to cover the return of the populace before their reinforcements arrive. Do you understand?"

"Understood!" replied the two hundred paladins in unison.

"The whole army has it!" Abby pointed his spear into the air, and the two hundred mounts were released at the same time. The paladins formed a column and rushed towards the town of Carlos like an arrow.

The sudden sound of horses' hooves startled the Sunland soldiers in the town of Carlos. In this way, the soldiers, except for some sentries who stood guard every day, were disorganized into the ranks of the peasants to help grow crops together. Their weapons were still lying in the room, and they were holding seedlings that had not yet been planted.

"Enemy attack! enemy attack!" the sentry in the center of town immediately sounded the alarm. The loud bell immediately dispersed into the sky, and the soldiers in the fields immediately abandoned their work and quickly ran to the room.

The sentry in the center of the town dropped the bell rope in his hand and turned to light the bonfire, but before the torch was lit, a pale green bow and arrow was stuck in his chest, and the sentry let out a scream and fell from the bell tower. Paladins generally disdain to use bows and arrows, and when they do, they are real marksmen.

When the soldier who had run into the room ran out again, the paladin's spear had already appeared at the edge of the field. The frightened peasants hid in their fields with their heads in their hands, for fear of being affected.

"Let's go! we are soldiers of the Holy See, you all go to the forest to the north, and then follow the forest in the direction of Budapest, and we will cover you!" a paladin who had left the group and came to them left with a word. As soon as they heard that it was the soldiers of the Holy See, they immediately threw down their farming tools and ran away, and some of the peasants who were still watching immediately chose to flee after seeing the paladins easily break up the line of soldiers of the Land of the Sun.

Most of these peasants were residents of nearby villages, and the soldiers of the Kingdom of the Sun destroyed their villages and abducted them all to Tallinn Fort, where they were then disorganized and distributed to different food production bases. Most of these people are middle-aged and elderly, and the women and children of the village have been left in Tallinnburg, but at this time they can't take care of so much, and now if they don't run, they won't have a chance.

The light infantry who rushed to the battle were directly smashed by the paladin squad strengthened by the holy light. What made the soldiers of the Land of the Sun collapse was that their round shields could not stop the white light spears of the paladins at all, and their spears obviously seemed to have stabbed the enemy, but the feeling coming from their hands was like being stuck in a stone, and under the strength of the knight's impact, the hands holding the spears were numb.

The two hundred light infantry did not hinder the paladins too much, and it did not take long for the paladins to annihilate the remaining soldiers of the Land of the Sun. It was the best record of a continental warrior since the start of the war, and all but one of the knights were slightly wounded, unscathed. The more than 200 soldiers of the Land of the Sun lying there were their trophies.

"Ignition!" Abby ordered, and all the paladins pulled out bags full of white phosphorus from their bosoms. White phosphorus has a very low ignition point and is very susceptible to spontaneous combustion when exposed to air, and the paladins threw it on top of the grain and grass that had just been piled up. A white light flashed in his hand, and the temperature in the vicinity immediately began to rise. The dry air was immediately ignited, and the raging fire quickly engulfed the grain and grass piles.

I can't see that the country of the sun has actually stocked up a lot of grain and grass here for a year, and this is still one of the grain bases, so I don't know what will happen to other places. I didn't have time to think about it, and a lot of dust was raised in the distance. Abby roughly estimated that it would take at least nearly a thousand light cavalry to kick up such dust.

"The enemy is coming, speed up!" Abby's white phosphorus flew in her hand, and she didn't have time to heat it, anyway, it would be ignited by the fire next to her after a while.

"Captain, here they are. A paladin on the periphery ran over.

Abby glanced back, all the light cavalry, it seemed that the enemy reacted very quickly and directly mobilized the fastest troops.

Abby threw the bag of white phosphorus out, and the flames engulfed the bag, erupting into even more intense flames. "The whole army retreated south. ”

The paladins immediately put down their actions and turned to run after Abby. The food and grass in this town are basically not saved, and it will take hours for such a big fire to be extinguished.

Abby's main purpose in fleeing south this time was to buy time for the fleeing civilians, otherwise they would be easily captured by the soldiers of the Land of the Sun without mounts.

The cavalry of the Kingdom of the Sun came from the west, and the paladins ran right in front of them as they headed south.

"バか!" On one side is the burning granary, on the other side is the fleeing murderer, and the squadron leader angrily scolded directly. The squadron leader turned back and gave a few words, and immediately split half of the group and followed the paladin closely, while the rest of the troops threw themselves into the fire.
