Just as the fleeing peasants were being treated kindly and were eating, drinking, and being treated by a horde of undead creatures, the biggest bloody battle since the counterinsurgency broke out to the north of the village.

Unlike the previous skirmishes with mercenaries, Vincent was facing a combined infantry force composed of elite noble knights and vassals.

The night's air raids had more effect than expected, and the entire village was turned into a fire that no one but the Fire Demon wanted to stay in and suffer.

The Knights, who could not bear the torture, finally decided to retreat, but how could Vincent not know that this group of people could only flee to the north?

The village of Sweetwater is located on the road to Herod, and it takes less than half a day to walk to the border, let alone the cavalry of the Order.

If it were to simply encircle the three and one, the knights would definitely smoothly anoint the soles of their feet, and at most they would lose supplies and some infantry, and the main force would not lose anything.

"When my territory is somewhere, I can come and go if I want." Vincent had no intention of letting go of the bandits, "I can't even release the corpses today."

Anyone can talk about grandiose words, but when it comes to combat, they will find that it is not easy to accomplish this goal.

The whole village is a flat river in the north, and there is a large road to pass, except for some small woods, low hills and rivers, which are all flat rivers, which are very suitable for cavalry mobility.

If you want to stop the cavalry's galloping horses, for the demons who don't have similar troops, they also need to use a large number of thick gun formations to intercept them.

Although Vincent spent his magic to collect nearly 10,000 skeletons, and almost wiped out the dead bodies, nameless graves, and open bones along the way, he was still a little powerless in the face of the mobile forces that intercepted the Knights.

The reason is actually very simple, the knights are all elite cavalry, they will definitely not be hard enough to hit the skeleton spear array, they will definitely judge the situation, find the weak position of the formation and rush outward.

Thousands of people intercepted hundreds of cavalry, and due to the difference in mobility, it was impossible to do everything.

If it is deployed everywhere, it will lead to a lack of strength and weapon density, allowing the Knights to break through.

There was too much open space to the north of the village, and if the Knights used their infantry as meat shields to keep their own side and found their own under-defended junctions to break through, Vincent really didn't think his army would be able to keep them.

Therefore, considering his command ability and the characteristics of the army, Vincent decided to learn from Mr. Zeng, who was known as a half-saint, to fight in a stupid battle.

Since you can't prevent it, then surround it to death.

After three days of rain and rain, it provided the demons with an excellent opportunity to dig into the ground, and Vincent summoned all the underground worms in the vicinity, and asked the group of monsters to work overtime and dig a trench around Sweetwater Village.

Of course, Vincent did not simply draw circles, but combined the virtual and the real, and arranged different numbers of trenches in corresponding positions according to the possible attack and retreat routes of the enemy.

To the south of the village, there were two relatively wide trenches, blocking the front two miles in response to a possible southward attack by the Herodians.

To the east and west of the village, there were no doors due to the wall. It is the direction in which the enemy is unlikely to attack and retreat, so there is only one trench, mainly just in case.

The south side of the village was the focus of the defense, and the worms riveted so hard that they dug six trenches, turning the entire south side of the village into a cavalry exclusion zone.

Not to mention that there is an army to defend here, even if there is no garrison, if the cavalry wants to cross the six trenches safely and steadily, the rider needs to be an old driver who is proficient in riding skills and has stable psychological quality.

In order to complete these trenches, the worms were even exhausted to die on the spot, and even the delicious corpses sent by Vincent were not ready to eat, and some wanted to escape the summons.

Sure enough, it's hard to do civil engineering anywhere, but Vincent is a noble demon, not an existence that ordinary monsters can resist.

Under his death command, the worms were working overtime in the fields until the fighting began on the north side of the village.

In the words of the lord, the project is well done, the flesh and blood are all-you-can-eat, and as long as there is a battle in this fortified area, all the worms who work overtime can get a triple corpse reward

, the kind that is fresh and hot.

The worms didn't have to wait long, and when night fell and the harpy flew over the village, a battle destined to take place in the north was inevitable.

The Silver Wolf Knights mobilized all the people in the village who could still move, and it took a lot of effort to move from the village road that was on fire and strewn with nails to the southern gate.

Karl, the commander's deputy commander, did not dare to let his subordinates linger here for too long, because there was always a group of harpys overhead, who were not only full of Zuan, but also threw all kinds of deadly things into the crowd at any time.

So, the deputy commander ordered the infantry, composed of noble retainers and yeoman farmers, to go out first and clear the way for the knights to advance, and some of the archers surrounded the wall and shot at the monsters overhead.

This is generally a wise decision, because the knight lord is expensive, and after a night of tossing, he doesn't want to be hit by an accident, and it is safer for someone to open the way.

There are less than 800 of the more than 1,000 infantry left to move, they are all peasants who have served the lord in the knight's territory for generations, and they have no way to refuse in the face of the nobles' orders, so they can only go out - this is also better than staying inside and becoming a barbecue.

In order to better break out, Karl also had the infantry tear down some long planks from the village and carry them out, so that they could build a road on them in case they encountered a trench.

It was only when most of the infantry had left the village and marched in a haphazard formation outside, that the knights rode out on horseback, leaving the place of suffering, where smoke and fire were everywhere except the walls.

As for the cavalry that pursued the traitors in the south, everyone could only pray for them in the form of blessings.

However, Karl's army soon encountered the same problems as during the day.

There were too many demon troops, and most of them entered the trenches early in the morning and used the same tactics during the day to shoot at the infantry.

Under the raindrop of the "Villager's Happy Crossbow", the infantry in front soon lay down hundreds of people, and the rest cowered, and those who tried to make a detour were in vain.

"Fools, rush over with your planks and fight them in hand-to-hand fight, or we will trample you to death!"

Actually, even Karl himself didn't think this order was a good idea, but instead of letting the infantry be shot by monsters, it was better to let them go to the trenches to clear the enemy and open the way for the mages and knights.

Time waits for no one, and the longer it drags on, the more monsters will go here.

As a result, under the death orders of the nobles and even the proximity of weapons, the low-ranking infantry could only hold the few long planks in front and launch a life-saving charge in the direction of the trench.

The mage follows the infantry and is protected by the shield-bearer, attacking with a variety of attack spells from a position where they can perform magical attacks.

Priest Herod, who was able to use the Divine Purification Magic, also participated in the battle, but their magic could only be used at close range, and they could only endure it temporarily when facing monsters a hundred meters in front of them.

However, even if Vincent was sympathetic to the peasants, he would not have much pity for the invaders.

The lord is here, and he will never let this group of Herodians who are trying to fill the way with their lives get their wish.

Just as the Herodians continued to advance with the continuous casualties and magic consumption of the infantry, dozens of sharp wind sounds whistled over the skulls, and the Herodians at the front on the opposite side suddenly let out a terrible howl and a sound of death.

"The people in the front and back rows were shot through by arrows?" The knights in the back were all dumbfounded, "What is it this time?"
