Chapter Forty-Eight, Fair Paddle (Asking for Votes)
The first time Hudson went out to rob, Hudson's mood was mixed with excitement and apprehension. His intuition told him that the convoy that was going to Dadir City at this time would definitely not be transporting any treasures.
Due to the limitations of troops, the coalition forces cannot be surrounded on all sides, but they will not let them come and go freely, and properly tie their heads to the waistband of their trousers to work.
Suspicion is suspicion, and robbery still has to be involved. Based on his past life experience, Hudson knew very well that there was nothing more terrible in this world than being "poor".
Don't look at the fact that in this war, he also made a lot of benefits, but most of them were materials that were difficult to realize, and Hudson's cash was still pitiful.
If the plot fails, it will be just a wandering knight. If the plan succeeds, there is no way for his family to support the rebuilding of the territory.
Both the counties of White and Layton were crippled, and Hudson did not consider his fiefdom unscathed. A lord who has no money is a plucked phoenix that is not as good as a chicken.
Just look at the knights of Chelse. A magic fanatic fan dead house, forced by life, to become the captain of the robbery team.
……
"Lord Deacon, there is an army blocking the way ahead, it seems that we have been discovered by the enemy, do we want to continue to Dadir City?"
Glancing ahead, the middle-aged deacon led by him said indifferently: "Allen, how many times have I told you, don't call me Lord Deacon." Now that we're the Skull and Bones, you've got to call me the Son! ”
"Yes, Deacon...... No...... My Son! ”
The young man replied in a panic.
Obviously, he is still a little uncomfortable with the sudden change of title.
Rolling his eyes, the middle-aged man had never had any hope for this confused subordinate.
"Alright, the order goes down and prepares for battle. A rabble that can't be lined up in an even queue also dares to run out to learn robbery, just to teach them a lesson. ”
The middle-aged man commanded calmly. As if he had forgiven Allen for his mistake just now, he didn't even bother to mention it again.
It's just that from the frightened looks of the subordinates, it can be seen that the middle-aged man is not so generous. He was not held accountable, and that was because he never cared about the dead.
At this juncture, escorting the convoy into the city of Dadir is clearly a mission of life and death. The people who appeared in the convoy were all unlucky people who were unfortunately chosen.
The story goes back two months. The skeletons who succeeded in the rebellion made a fortune and placed an order with them at a large cost.
Originally, I didn't want to take it, after all, if they had to send someone to escort it, it would be easy to be caught, so how could the skeleton give too much.
For the sake of interests, the Holy See gathered the supplies as quickly as possible, and also sent a master to go deep into the Demon Beast Mountain Range to capture an Earth Bear cub.
Of course, the Holy See is so active, in addition to the skeleton will pay a lot of money, the most important thing is to want to do big things.
In the eyes of the Holy See, the bigger the skeleton will be, the better, and it is best to summon the skeleton lord to deal a heavy blow to the Alpha Kingdom.
It would be even more perfect if it could raid the continent. Only when the situation is unending will everyone realize the importance of the Holy See.
……
"Rush!"
With the order of the knight of Chels, the elite of the Fifth Army went directly to the convoy. Hudson, armed with a bow and arrow, undoubtedly fell at the back of the line.
"Eight hundred against five hundred, the advantage is mine!"
Seeing this scene, Hudson was very relieved. It's just that what surprised him was that in the face of the pressure of the soldiers, the enemy not only did not panic, but launched a-for-tat counter-charge.
What made Hudson even more speechless was that the enemy was all armored cavalry, and the equipment was a few points better than the elite of the Fifth Army, and he suspected that he had robbed the wrong target.
It is not surprising that the rebels who are ravaging the land of the two counties can come up with five hundred war horses, but it is difficult to gather five hundred well-trained cavalry.
If there were really 500 elite cavalry, why didn't they use it when they robbed grain and grass before, but appeared in the mysterious convoy instead?
It was not only Hudson who hesitated, but the knight of Chels, who rushed forward, also noticed that something was wrong, and in order not to cause unnecessary accidental injury, he hurriedly tightened his horse rope and asked, "Who are you?" Why rush to Dadir at such a time......"
Before the word "city" could be exported, a flying spear had already been thrown at him from the other side. There is no need to confirm it, this is the enemy.
Fortunately, Chels was also experienced, and he did not let his guard down when questioning, and picked up the flying spear that came at him with a sword.
The handsome posture made Hudson's eyes shine. However, the use of knight swords is the patent of high-level knights, and if a young knight like him wants to live longer, it is best to be honest and practical knight guns.
An inch long, an inch strong.
On the battlefield, practicality always comes first. Although the sword is the king of a hundred soldiers, it also depends on who uses it.
Dodged a round of sneak attacks, and the Fifth Army was also on fire. It is simply unreasonable that they don't talk about chivalry compared to them!
"Kill, kill......"
The two armies were soon strangled together, although the Fifth Army was more numerous, but it could not stand the other side was all cavalry, and for a while it fell into passivity.
The enemies are all elite!
After making this judgment, Hudson didn't care about paddling, and directly picked up his bow and arrow to start the point kill mode.
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh......"
Seven enemy cavalry fell in response, and the wonderful performance of taking one person away with one arrow made Hudson instantly the brightest cub on the battlefield.
It's not that the enemy army doesn't have archers, it's just that now the two armies are fighting together, and if you're not careful, you will cause accidental injuries, and ordinary archers have no room to play at all.
In fact, Hudson's performance has also been affected quite a bit. Unlike before, when they commanded serf soldiers to fight, these allies are now nobles, and causing accidental injuries will cause big trouble, and they must be completely sure to make a move.
"Enemy archers, everyone be on guard. Alan, you bring someone over and kill that guy! ”
As soon as the middle-aged man's words fell, Hudson's arrow flew over, but unfortunately it was picked up by the opponent's sword.
Sure enough, the strong are not so easy to sneak attack. In the transcendent world, it is difficult for ordinary bows and arrows to inflict substantial damage on a master unless they form a scale.
Seeing that the enemy was attacking him with his troops, Hudson was not polite and waited for him directly. Whoever runs the fastest will be the first to be shot.
More than a dozen cavalrymen were killed in an instant, but the distance between them and Hudson was only a few dozen meters.
It wasn't Hudson's archery skills that killed the enemy quickly, but it was mainly the allies who stood in the way and held back the enemy's advance.
At this moment, Hudson suddenly realized that there was nothing wrong with chivalry. At least on the battlefield, the allies are really desperate.
In order not to let the efforts of his allies go to waste, Hudson worked hard to find targets on the battlefield, and whenever he had the opportunity to make a move, he would immediately deliver an arrow.
