Chapter 158 The War of Gold Coins
At this time, a dark-edged knight stepped out of the ranks, riding alone, walking calmly, towards the military formation of the silver sword. For a moment, all eyes were on this Darkblade Knight. The magic knight under his seat took small steps, calmly rushed towards the army array full of bows and spears, and soon entered the land of a stone's throw.
One of the generals shouted, "Stop!
The Knight of the Darkblade continued as if he hadn't heard anything. Hundreds of silver-sword longbowmen drew their longbows in unison, and hundreds of long arrows covered them would surely shoot the dark-edged knight into a hedgehog. But the Knight of the Darkblade still turned a blind eye, and did not make any defensive moves, just marched forward.
The silver sword's forehead was bruised, and his raised hand tried several times, but he couldn't fall. He knew very well that as long as he gave an order, the lone knight would be shot without any suspense. But it also meant the beginning of the war with Akmund.
The Silver Sword was remote, and if Akmund wanted to go to war, the route and supplies would be difficult for the expeditionary force. Despite this, a war with a floating island magnate is still a major event that can determine the life and death of Silver Sword. If Richard decides to fight at all costs, it will only be a matter of time before he destroys the Silver Sword.
Such a heavy choice should not have been placed on this general, but a decision that Baron Ferguson needed to make.
Sweat began to seep from Baron Fergus's forehead, and his throat rolled up and down, and several times he tried to speak, but swallowed it back. Just when he hesitated, the Knight of the Dark Edge had already come to a place less than thirty meters in front of the formation, and was about to crash into the infantry in the front row. The infantry spears in the front row of the silver sword were lined up, and Sen Han's spears were pointed directly at the opponent.
Frey's face turned a little pale, and he turned to ask, "Lord Richard, are you planning to sacrifice your knights for nothing?"
"Sacrifice in vain? I don't think so. Richard smiled meaningfully, and the meaning of his smile sent chills down the cheeks of his heart. And Richard didn't speak again, his meaning was obvious, and he was in no mood to talk nonsense with Friedman now.
The Knight of the Dark Blade walked over to the spear, the tip of the spear pressed against his breastplate, and the tip of the spear stabbed into the horseman's body. However, the Knight of the Dark Blade continued to move forward with a spear, and the spear-wielding infantry was pressed back step by step, and if it were not for strength, it would be impossible to cut through the armor of the elite knight with the sharpness of ordinary weapons. These warriors didn't know what to do, how dare they stab a knight to death at will without the officer's orders, and some even felt that the force of the rebound in front of them would cause the weapon to escape.
The Knight of the Darkblade had already fired his spear and squeezed into the ranks of the heavy infantry, and he continued on as if he had seen nothing. It's just that there are a few more wounds on the demon knight's body, which have just been scratched by a spear, a shallow epidermal wound, and a thin red mark like the lines of a magic array.
Fu Nan's face was pale and he was sweating profusely. Seeing that the Knight of the Darkblade had squeezed into the dense formation, he knew he had to do something. But the consequences of this decision were extremely harsh, but he couldn't make up his mind.
The Demon Rider had never been in such a dense sharpness, and he was a little irritable, and suddenly he pushed forward with his strength, directly knocking over several infantrymen. The fierce-tempered warrior subconsciously pulled out his short sword, and stabbed it out, straight into the belly of the demon knight, until it was out of control! The Mojo rose to his feet in pain and threw the Grimblade Knight off his back.
Around the knights, there were originally snow-bright swords and spear tips. He fell suddenly, and the Silver Sword Warrior couldn't stop it, and the weapon that hit the armor couldn't go deeper, but there were still seven or eight weapons inserted into the exposed part of the Darkblade Knight's armor at the same time, and blood splattered everywhere! The body smashed motionless to the ground, not even struggling in pain.
The battlefield suddenly fell silent, and the faces of the nobles and generals of the silver sword changed. Without saying a word, Richard turned the magic knight and walked towards his army.
"Can't let him go!" A silver-sword knight screamed and lunged at Richard with the idea of taking the hostages.
This thirteenth-level knight's style can be called brave, but unfortunately his strength is too weak, Richard's hand seems to move, and the sword flashes away, and the knight pounces directly from Richard's horse and falls heavily to the ground. His legs suddenly separated from his body, and blood gushed violently, staining a large area of the ground red!
Fu Nan didn't even see how Richard went with the knife!
When Richard looked back at him, he remembered that the other party wanted to take Richard as a hostage, so why couldn't the other party take him as a hostage? In contrast, although Richard was only one person, he was more likely to take a hostage in terms of strength.
As soon as Fu Nan understood the key, he no longer dared to stay where he was, and immediately ran towards his army. It's not safe to stay in the middle of the battlefield, and the Constructed Knight has a bonus to Fighting Spirit, and the speed of the charge can be twice as fast as that of a normal cavalry.
Richard's troops suddenly began to change formations, and a group of mounted infantry knights and armored knights followed the elite dark blade knights who led the team to intersperse, and in an instant, it became an elongated arrow formation, and the knights swarmed up, covering Richard in the center of the lineup. This change of formation was extremely smooth and natural, and it immediately stunned the generals of the silver sword, and their confrontation had just begun to move.
Each knight has his own direction, as if he has taken a few steps casually, and the whole formation has changed. If they had changed their troops, not to mention the knights, even the infantry would have to be rigorously trained for months to make everyone remember which direction they should go, so that it would be possible to achieve similar results, but it would not have been so smooth. This army, the elite is no longer enough to describe! General Yinjian originally had confidence in his side's military superiority, but now, his confidence began to waver.
At this moment, Richard's soldiers moved, and the sharp arrow formation stabbed straight into the silver sword formation, and at the forefront were fifty knights in armor. When the two armies were a kilometer apart, the knight in costume drew his spear and threw it at the army of silver swords with all his might. Fifty spears dragged the light of the fighting spirit, crossed a thousand meters, and fell towards the Silver Sword Army Formation!
The original strict lineup of the silver sword suddenly caused a riot, this is the throwing of the knight in disguise! The special spear with a large amount of fighting spirit attached to it is a weapon for the knight to deal with the holy domain and even the legendary powerhouse, and if he encounters an opponent below the holy domain, he will be at least seriously injured if he is inserted. This piece throws a spear over, it can be said that where it falls, where it will die, how can people not panic?
This is the real deterrent meaning of the Constructed Knight.
Fifty spears were extremely fast, and in the blink of an eye, they flew above the silver sword battle array, and then turned around and stabbed down into the five-hundred-person longbowmen brigade, first killing fifty longbowmen in one fell swoop, and then the fighting spirit attached to the spears began to explode continuously, and the nearest longbowmen were blown out. Those who are stronger are seriously injured, and those who are less powerful are directly shocked to death by the fighting spirit. The continuous roar shook the hearts of the Silver Sword warriors, and they didn't even care about military discipline and formation, pushing each other and trying their best to get away from the hapless longbowmen.
When the roar passed, the longbow brigade of 500 men had become sparse, and less than half of the people survived, and most of them were wounded. With just one blow, most of the Silver Sword's long-range firepower was destroyed.
Richard's troops continued forward, and at six hundred meters, the knight in suit drew a second spear, and a hundred spear-throwers came into attack. They are specially selected from the elite of the infantry knights, and the range of spear throwing can exceed 500 meters.
This attack distance is the same as that of the silver sword longbowmen, but at this moment, the longbowmen have just experienced a round of devastating blows, and the formation is disheveled, and many archers have difficulty even standing firmly, how can they organize an effective counterattack? Only the squad leader and above can barely shoot the arrows on their hands crookedly, and dozens of scattered feathered arrows draw a desolate trajectory in the long air, as if foreshadowing the end of this battle.
Hundreds of specially made throwing spears flew into the sky, and flew forward under the push of the fighting spirit. Halfway through, the tip of the spear begins to burn. Once again, the flaming spears landed on the positions of the longbowmen, wounding many of the shield-bearers who had been temporarily transferred. But once the spears collided, they would suddenly explode, and the power of the explosion could blow up the ancient trees of the green forest, and the warriors within ten meters of the center of the explosion were thrown out. Combined, the explosive power of several throwing spears is comparable to that of a Constructed Knight.
After the second round of covering bombardment, the longbowmen's positions were empty, and there were no longer standing figures. The Silver Sword's elite long-range strike power was destroyed in front of Richard's overwhelmingly superior Constructed Knights and Elite Knights.
Nereus stared at the spear thrower in his hand and lost his voice, "Where did these spears come from?"
"Homegrown. Richard said lightly.
Without thinking, Nereus said, "Okay, I'll order 10,000!"
"One hundred gold coins each. ”
Nereus didn't catch his breath in the next bite, and said angrily, "Why don't you go and grab it!"
Richard blocked him back with a word: "It's not mass-produced yet, it's the cost." ”
If each spear costs 100 gold coins, and 100 spear throwers cover and throw it at a time, isn't it just throwing out 10,000 gold coins? Even if Nereus had his own plane, he would never dare to bombard his opponent by throwing money so much.
Next, Richard's formation changed again, from a sharp arrow to a column, bypassing the silver sword's military formation, and directly outflanking the rear of the formation. The generals of the silver sword were shocked, and it was not so easy to turn an army of several thousand people in place. If you turn it twice, you will inevitably be chaotic, and then you will wait to be slaughtered.
Baron Ferdinand had already recovered from the panic, and knew that there could be no more confusion at this time, so he mustered his fighting spirit and gave a loud order, while reorganizing the formation, and at the same time letting his cavalry go out to intercept Richard and protect the flank.
Then the earth began to tremble, and the knights parted to the sides, and the heavily armored Tiramisu whizzed out like a steel fortress with his hammer in his hand, and rushed head-on at the silver-sword cavalry!
