Chapter 456: Viscount Harry has defected?
"Bishop Ferdinand, you need to give me an explanation! Why did the people you sent me do it without my orders! ”
Back in the army, Arlote approached Ferdinand with a gloomy face and asked in a low voice.
"Your Majesty Alot, our church has promised you to help you defeat the Duchy of Jean, so sometimes, as long as they feel that it is helpful to victory, those knights of our church will take the initiative according to the situation."
Ferdinand saw that Arlot's face was gloomy, but he was not worried, and his face was still peaceful, and his tone was calm.
"Then you tell me, what good will it do to kill the eldest prince of the Duchy of Jean for us to defeat the Duchy of Jean!"
In fact, whether to kill the eldest prince Derek or not, Alote has no opinion.
He was angry at the moment that the people in the church had acted without orders of their own, which made him feel threatened.
"Your Majesty Allot, although I was not present, I believe that there must be a reason for their attack, such as angering Lawrence of the Duchy of Jean and making him lose his caution because of his anger!"
"Humph! Bishop Ferdinand, I hope this is the last time something like this happens! Otherwise, it will be difficult for our follow-up cooperation to continue! ”
Although he felt that Ferdinand's explanation was reasonable, Arlote didn't like to feel like being toyed with.
He is the king of the Duchy of Alban, and the church is helping him, but it is also asking for him, so he cannot tolerate the church to influence the direction of the war, at least before consulting him.
"Your Majesty Alot, please rest assured, I will definitely explain to them later, so as to prevent such a thing from happening again!"
Ferdinand said with a slight bow.
"Bishop Ferdinand, the Great War is about to break out! Is your deployment complete? ”
Ferdinand's assurances can be regarded as giving himself a step, and at this critical moment, the support of the church must be won by the church, so Arote stopped here and began to care about the next battle.
"Your Majesty Alot, rest assured, everything has been arranged, and victory is doomed!"
"Very well, then I wish us a great victory!"
Such affirmative words came out of Ferdinand's mouth very convincingly, and Arlote was exactly like this at this time, and after listening to Ferdinand's words, his expression immediately became excited.
……
As the teams of the two sides slowly advanced, after more than ten minutes, the two sides were less than eight hundred meters apart, looking at the enemy troops all over the mountains in front of them, whether it was the soldiers of the Duchy of Alban, or the soldiers of the Duchy of Jean, their heartbeats began to accelerate slightly.
And Gervais is also in the ranks of the Duchy of Alban at the moment, but because Gervais only has more than seventy subordinates, he can only be assigned to the flank of the army.
The Duchy of Jean and the Duchy of Alban had a very similar military formation, with the king's immediate elite legions in the middle, the legions of the Earl's family on the left and right, and the weaker minor nobles on the two wings.
"Pass my orders, attack! Kill all the invaders! ”
Whining~
As Alot's command was repeated from the moving platform, a rapid horn began to sound, and the otherwise slow march of the team increased slightly.
"Didn't Hayden take the antidote I threw in? Why hasn't it shown up yet? ”
Seeing that the battle was about to break out at this time, and there was still Allote sitting on the throne of the conductor, Gervais was also a little puzzled.
"Shoot the arrows!"
Just as Gervais was deserting, a loud roar came from the front of the army.
The armies of both sides finally came to the land of a stone's throw, and as the only long-range weapon in the field, the longbowmen began their show.
"Raise your shield!"
Hearing this shout, Gervais didn't have time to think about it, and quickly ordered Ike and the others.
This time, the two sides fought to the death, and the forces used could be said to be poured out, and there were thousands of longbowmen alone, and if you were not careful, you might really be shot into a cactus ball after a while.
Sou! Sou! Sou!
Not long after Gervais's words fell, countless black dots suddenly appeared in the sky, and the dense black dots like a swarm of bees shot towards the crowd of people with a whistling sound.
Sincere! Sincere! Sincere!
Yes! Yes! Yes!
In just a few breaths, those black dots gradually magnified, and then shot into the crowd at great speed.
From time to time, powerful arrows struck the shields held by the soldiers, making a shuddering crash.
Of course, such a large number of arrow feathers naturally cannot be dodged by everyone, and there are many unlucky eggs who were shot by the arrow feathers from the place where the shield could not cover them, and immediately fell to the ground and howled.
The arrows of both sides exchanged arrows for a total of three rounds, and after three rounds, the longbowmen retreated to the rear and began to fire freely, and the real battle broke out at this moment.
Kill!
Kill!
With the order of the officer at the front of the formation, the infantry torrent of the two sides collided together.
Swords, spears, hoes, scythes, soldiers and serfs shouted and attacked the enemy in front.
When the infantry was mixed together, the elite cavalry regiments in the rear also began to move, galloping out from the flanks, bypassing the main battlefield and killing the enemy.
"Caroline, Ike! Follow me! ”
When the soldiers of the Duchy of Alban around him rushed forward, Gervais was fishing with his subordinates, and their team seemed to be rushing wildly, but if you looked closely, you could see that they didn't rush a few meters at all.
When the Duchy of Albane team around him rushed to the front, Gervais craned his neck and shouted at Caroline and Ike.
At the moment they were on the left flank of the Duchy of Alban's ranks, but it was just what he wanted, if they were in the middle of the ranks, they would not have been able to bypass the fighting crowd, but now it was just right!
Gervais was riding his horse, and on either side of his saddle were bulging bags of animal skins, which were full of gold coins.
In addition to his warhorses, the same is true of the warhorses of Ike and the others.
In this way, Gervais and his party did not rush forward directly, but kept going around the end of the left flank of the Duchy of Alban.
……
"Yes, chief, you see that group of people did not come forward to kill the enemy, but kept going around to the side, should we go over and warn!"
Behind them was a team of fifty overseers, and they had also seen the strange behavior of Gervais and the others at this moment.
Because the left flank was full of the ranks of the minor nobles, the Overseer was not prepared to go up and kill a few of them to make an example if they disagreed.
"That man looks like Viscount Harry! Now the big celebrity around His Majesty! We can't afford to mess with it! ”
The captain of the Overseer also saw the actions of Gervais, but shook his head at his subordinates.
The other minor nobles had already joined the ranks with their bands, but Gervais had retired from the front with Allot, so even though Gervais was wearing full body armor, the captain of the Overseer would recognize him.
Not to mention that Gervais and his party are just acting weird, even if they really retreat from the battlefield now, he will treat it as if he didn't see it and turn a blind eye.
"Captain, what do you think they're going to do?"
After hearing the words of his captain, this team member felt a pang in his heart, and he didn't say anything about beating, the big red man in front of His Majesty, they really can't afford to provoke.
However, he was still curious about the actions of Gervais and others.
If Gervais and his party continued to walk more than a hundred meters, they would have reached the periphery of the battle group.
Over there, there are more than 200 cavalry of the Duchy of Jean protecting the flank, and as long as they run out, they will definitely be attacked by those cavalry.
"What the hell! He didn't prepare, he wanted to go around the enemy's perimeter to attack! ”
The captain didn't understand it either, but he still said it casually.
"It's really possible, this Viscount Harry is really desperate, he was already favored by His Majesty, but now he still wants to make a great contribution!"
The team members felt that their captain was very reasonable, so they looked at Gervais and the others intently, wanting to see how they faced the hundreds of cavalry.
"It's time to start!"
At this time, Gervais and the others finally reached the outermost part of the battle group, and the hundreds of cavalry of the Duchy of Jean over there also moved.
"So brave! Sure enough, we are the first noble youth in the Duchy of Alban, and such courage is beyond our reach! ”
Seeing that the hundreds of cavalry urged the war horses to rush straight towards Gervais and the others, and Gervais and the others were not afraid at all, only more than 20 horsemen and more than 50 people also rushed straight towards the cavalry.
At this moment, the members of these Overseers admired Gervais in their hearts.
Fifty meters...... Thirty meters...... 10 meters ......
As the two sides got closer and closer, the eyes of the Overseers widened, wanting to see what kind of reliance this big red man in front of His Majesty had to dare not be afraid of hundreds of cavalry.
“……”
It's just that the scene that appeared in the next second made them a little confused.
I saw that the hundreds of cavalry of the Principality of Jean were about to collide with Gervais and the others, but they suddenly scattered to both sides, bypassing Gervais and his party, and then came to the rear of Gervais and others.
"Team...... Captain...... What's going on? ”
The Overseers wiped their eyes, and they could still see a beautiful woman in the Duchy of Nagien, smiling and talking with Viscount Harry.
"How the fuck do I know what's going on......"
The captain of the Overseer also widened his eyes, and his heart was full of thoughts.
"Could it be...... Could it be that Viscount Harry has rebelled......"
It was the captain's last thought, but it was his own disbelief in such a result.
……
"Alice, thank you!"
These hundreds of cavalry in the Duchy of Jean were Alice and her Rose Knights, and because they were worried about Gervais's comfort, Alice brought more than two hundred Rose Knights to pick up Gervais in person.
"Gervais, it's good that you can come back safely!"
Alice didn't care about Gervais's thanks, but replied with a smile.
Alice's charming smile instantly stunned Gervais, her cheap wife's smile is so beautiful!
