Of the three known continents, the countries of Eminole have the most and the most proficient use of knight forces. Wise generals, brave generals, famous generals and other military experts have vividly interpreted the application principles of knights through large-scale battles, and similarly, in the countries of the Eminole continent, the treatment enjoyed by knight troops is also incomparable to other arms.

In the establishment of the Eminole Continental Army, the Knight Force can be roughly divided into two types:

Light cavalry troops, light knights are mostly cavalry within the national army establishment, and ordinary civilians may also become a member of the knights after joining the army. Of course, as a cavalryman without a noble title, he could not make any special marks on the knight's armor that was standard in the Empire.

Heavy cavalry troops, all heavy knights, without exception, all have noble titles, even if an ordinary knight has repeatedly made military exploits, and finally is exceptionally selected to join the heavy cavalry team, then before that, there will be a nobleman above the earl level on behalf of the king to grant him the title of "Imperial Knight" or "Blue Feather Knight" and other low-level nobles, and then he is eligible to join the heavy cavalry unit.

Completely different from the ordinary knight's chain mail, the lowest-level armor of the heavy knight is also a large plate armor made of pieces of light steel plate riveting, and it is not uncommon for heavy knights from the great nobility to even cast armor made of pure steel. Even the most longbowmen in the army had to be within 30 meters to be able to wear plate armor, and cast armor was simply invulnerable to steel. The value of these armors is very high, and since each person is different, it is quite time-consuming and laborious to find different owners for the same set of heavy knights' armor, and the average heavy knight can take his armor with him as a testimony of service after retirement - most of the heavy knights are nobles, for whom the armor with the family emblem is itself their own family item.

The horses of ordinary knights, most of which are dressed in leather vests, have some protection against ordinary attacks, while the horses of heavy knights are completely pure steel armor, with screw holes in the upper part of the vest, and the lower part of the knight's armor are riveted together with a wrench through screws.

The fast-galloping heavy knights are an active steel fortress for the Eminole continent, which is composed of large areas of plains, and its strategic and tactical value is irreplaceable by other troops.

On March 22, the fourth year of the Magic Calendar, exactly one month after the fascist Western Expeditionary Corps attacked Xilin Island, the "Battle of the Bloody Lion River" broke out.

Most of the subtropical mornings are windless, autumn on the banks of the Lion River does not feel a hint of coolness, the red sun has just risen over the eastern horizon, the black sun reflects the last rays of light on the western horizon, and the dew on the grasslands turns into water vapor.

Dahaino and Viscount Fan chose two small hillsides as their camps, about 1,300 meters of flat grassland between the two small slopes, with an occasional low tree or two in the middle of the grassland. The timid antelope had sensed something, and fled far away from the steppe that was about to turn into a battlefield, peeking in the distance.

Almost at the same time, the camps of the two armies were boiling, the side gates on both sides of the gate in the middle of the camp were opened at the same time, and several groups of light infantry rushed out of the camp to remove the three obstacles in front of the camp composed of huge canopies and tree trunks, light cavalry, heavy cavalry, heavy infantry, and archers...... Rushing out of the side door.

At 8 o'clock on the 22nd day of the third month of the autumn month, the 29,000 imperial soldiers saw the legendary ugly enemy for the first time, standing in the front were half-human and half-horse archers, and behind the archers were a large group of Dixing Dragon Knights; the irascible Dixing Dragon let out a low roar from time to time, and the white air exhaled by the dragon beast faded in the sky above the army, and gradually merged into the white clouds in the air; behind the Dixing Dragon troops, there were light cavalry troops, forming two huge phalanxes, if the enemy's formation was similar to the Empire, it should be 1000~1200 knights; behind the knights were more than a dozen infantry phalanxes, at least a dozen, the hillside reaches its summit here, and further afield it is already a smooth descent to the west, and even if there are more troops, it is not visible from the front...... In the dry air, the war horses and the earth dragons were restlessly kicking on the slopes, and the dust filled and submerged part of the troops.

Looking at the enemy who was a head taller than him, the rumored strength of the enemy was as strong as the vast land, the words like Iron Horse Kingo floated in the minds of the Imperial soldiers.

Compared to the enemy's majestic camp, all the officers above the squad leader could not guess the strange formation layout of Viscount Fan this time. The most combat-effective and furious Lion King troops were hidden in the back of the entire army, and in the Fire Lion Legion, the most proud of the Flame Knights, there were 200 heavy knights in the noble private army, and these miscellaneous heavy knights were also entrusted with the important task of placing them in the center of the entire knight army. Although most of these beautiful heavy knights have higher noble titles, it is not difficult for experienced people to glance at their mounts at random to see that some parts of the horse's hooves have almost as much fat as their owners, and it is doubtful that such a knight can maintain the speed of the charge and charge to the enemy camp 1500 meters away, let alone war.

There was a sudden rumbling sound behind the hill, and then the giant wings flapped into the sky and roared like wind and thunder, and the white clouds above the hillside were shattered by the wind in an instant, and they scattered in all directions......

"Dragon-" The veteran in the ranks of Imperial soldiers guessed the terrifying answer.

An adult golden dragon broke out of the sky from behind the hill, its huge wings flapped the white clouds in the sky every time, and the dragon's mouth spewed out a white sè breath, facing the rising sun, the golden sè scales flashed with dazzling light, like thousands of hexagonal rhinestones flying in the sky. Behind the dragon, the griffon, which looked thin in contrast to the beast, spread its wings smoothly and soared through the air with the help of the wind and waves set off by the dragon.

The stones were thrown into the pool, and a ripple was created in the middle of the knightly units at the front of the Imperial camp, and the young knights tugged at the reins in an attempt to settle their mounts.

Husband and fighter, attack the heart first.

The general waved his hand lightly, and the phantom beast knights in the Fire Lion Legion rose into the air one after another, or lions or horses or eagles or earthly dragons or sand lizards, more than 20 phantom beast knights formed a wall in the air, resisting the psychological pressure from far away from the dragon beasts.

The dragon and griffin broke away from their formation and made their way to the grassland, and the dragon knight and the phantom beast knight clearly wanted to say something. This is normal, in the prelude to most knights' wars, the nobles on both sides are willing to talk about something before the battle. A considerable part of the classic discourse has been handed down in this way - in terms of practical effect, most of it is some nonsense that is not nutritious, just to give the nobles a chance to show their faces in front of everyone and show who is on the side of the so-called truth. As for the impact on the battle situation, it is basically negligible.

Viscount Fan smiled helplessly, and beckoned a few phantom beast knights to accompany him to the conversation-most of the middle and high-ranking officers of the Fire Lion Legion knew that this was an eternal pain in Viscount Fan's heart. Viscount Fan has an extremely dazzling resume, entering the military as a small soldier, with dozens of battles and great achievements, but his direct boss dislikes his mouth that never brushes his teeth, so he has no chance to enter the Phantom Beast Knight selection list between the ages of 18~25, and he has no chance to be with the Phantom Beast Knight. One of the seven major defense area generals of the empire is not a phantom beast knight, and it is extremely rare that it is not unprecedented, and this has even become an excuse for most of the nobles of the empire to comfort their unsuccessful children: "Don't be discouraged, isn't it just that ×× has not succeeded?" No matter how you fail, Viscount Fan has failed, but he is not even a phantom beast knight and is still a defense general, we believe that you will definitely succeed." "This is also one of the main reasons why Viscount Fan has never had a good impression of the newly assigned Phantom Beast Knights from the Military Department.

More than 10 Phantom Beast Knights followed.

"Your Excellency, instead of tearing tens of thousands of soldiers at every turn, it is better for us to have a contest between ourselves and settle this war once and for all. The domineering dragon knight condescendingly dropped his cold words, and the pride of the dragon knight flashed behind the black crystal of the all-defense mask.

"Well, it's a good idea, but it doesn't seem fair to me, after all, you are a dragon knight, or you wait a few more days, and I will transfer a few dragon knights from the empire to accompany you? Is your dragon male or female? I can help you pick it, what kind of temperament dragon do you like?" Even in the face of the dragon knight, Viscount Fan was still unwilling to give up his Huang Sè humor.

The wise golden dragon immediately understood the opinions of human kindness, but unfortunately, the arrogant dragon clan has always pursued the principle of marital autonomy, and for this humble human being who is not his own parents, he dared to arrange a lifelong event for himself, the golden dragon was furious, Jin Sè's head was raised angrily, and Jin Sè's dragon breath spewed out.

"Protect the general-" Several red giant shields resisted the scorching heat, and the water shield immediately formed in front of the phantom beast, and the heat wave turned into water vapor.

"This ...... I already suspect that the purpose of the Dragon Knight is not to assassinate me in front of the battle. ”

Jin Sè's mask bounced up, and a cold and angry face behind the mask burned with anger after insult: "Your Excellency, the dignity of the dragon knight is inviolable. I can choose your opponent at will, and I'll decide right here. I hope that by limiting the number of matches, I can avoid a larger fight. ”

"Oh, I just understood your thoughts...... I agree with you," Viscount Fan showed a suddenly realized expression on his face: "For the sake of fairness, let's do it, let's compete every day, you send one person here, I send one person here, there is no duplication, I have a total of more than 29,000 soldiers here, and you estimate that it is about the same, in this way, we will be divided into high and low in about 80 years." Well, I miscalculated, if the score is very different, it will be separated in about 40 years. Viscount Fan had serious words flashing on his face.

The dragon knight and the griffin knight rushed up to return to their team, and their voices came from afar: "We are also descendants of the Eminole Continent, and we don't want the continent to hurt too much vitality, but ...... Idiot-"

"This guy is very polite, you have to learn that you don't forget to tell your name when they last leave. "Threesome, there must be my teacher, Viscount Fan is very good at discovering the advantages of the opponent, and educating his subordinates while riding a horse back to the headquarters.

In the War of the Gods, there are several famous mouths that never brush their teeth, and Viscount Fan and Yemoda are both among them, and in the first encounter, it seems that Viscount Fan has taken a big advantage. Of course, as has been the case for hundreds of years, war broke out after "goodwill negotiations" with the generals yielded no results.

Unspeakable Master:

Some readers and friends think that I have published a book, so I deliberately delay the time to publish the book on the Internet.

I think this is a misunderstanding, and I promised you that I would not delay the little mercenary to send out the book on the Internet no matter what, even if it does not produce a paper book.

Therefore, when it came time to negotiate the book publishing agreement, it was the last hurdle that I strictly adhered to.

As a matter of fact, so far, publishers have not been given as many chapters as they see online.

There are two main reasons for the slow publication of books recently:

1. The work is too busy, the work of "Tianjiao-Qin Yan World" has just been launched, as an online reader, you must know the fierce competition in the domestic online game industry now, and you really need to use "sailing against the current and retreating".

It's not just the work at hand one after another, it's more troublesome to have time to think about how to proceed next. There is almost no reconciliation between thinking and writing a book. The past nearly 10 years of work experience has given me professional ethics, and it is impossible to slack off on my work - this is not only a matter of my own income, but also related to the investment of more than 40 employees of the company and investors...... Sweat. As a result, you can only devote one weekend per week to writing a book, and you have to work overtime on the other day.

2. The previous writing was very smooth, mainly to tell the story of a certain person or a few people, it is easy to write a lot, and there seems to be no too high insurmountable barrier in front of me, generally an hour and a half to write with proofreading 1800~2000 words.

When it comes to the war, my God, the pressure on Yemo's "Knight's War" is too great, and every time I start writing, I will look at a few chapters of Yemo's more jīng color. The scrutiny of every class and every word is almost pathological (I am not slandering Yemoda). Often a weekend passes in watering flowers, teasing dogs (and of course, thinking about war scenes), and often a week cannot be put on paper - "there is a scene in front of you, and the night war is above". I even wondered if I wouldn't write it, didn't I say that being incomplete is beautiful?

In pain, word by word, the next chapter has been hammered, and it is still being scrutinized, please rate it - compared with other chapters, the next chapter is more than 12,000 words long, and it is three chapters of ordinary chapters. I hope you will leave me a message directly in pinshu.

More slapping bricks, more mentioning the gap between the war scenes and other greatly excellent war scenes.

Thank you very much.
