Chapter 497 strips them naked
The rupture of the drawbridge is actually not a problem, after all, in front of these cavalry, it is still a smooth road, rushing through the zhngyang street, there is no obstacle in front of it, and a cavalry of five hundred people as long as it is properly commanded, it is not very difficult to seize the road and rush for a while. However, that loud sound was fatal for the cavalry...... Something more terrible than a knife or gun.
Horses are extremely sensitive animals, and their awareness of sound has been deeply engraved in their blood for thousands of years of evolution, so a good war horse often needs months or even years of training to get used to the noise of the battlefield, but even how they are trained it is impossible to endure too loud noises.
In particular, in this narrow tunnel of the city gate, the terrible sound is gathered to the maximum.
The horses neighed in terror almost in unison, and rushed forward as if they were deadly. And the knights...... The terrifying sound wave burrowed into each knight's ear like a knife, and the terrible concussion tore through their eardrums in an instant, and then rushed inexorably into the tricircular canal, causing the balance organ to be rendered useless in an instant.
The world is spinning...... They had to clench their legs and pull on the reins in a daze, so as not to fall off their horses. Hundreds of horses galloped and collided, and the consequence of falling off the horse at this time could only be trampled into a ball of meat sauce by iron hooves. They followed their horses and rushed forward. Let the dark smoke swirl in the passage behind them, completely obscuring their figures.
The widening of his eyes made the Count grit his teeth, and he even felt a stream of blood fill his mouth......
Unlike cavalry, it is impossible to regroup between long feet, and whipping and kicking can only be completely useless when facing a startled horse...... But give them up and let them be wiped out by this trap?
No. Absolutely not!
Although this team of knights was only lightly armed, in order to arm them, he invested at least a third of his property, not to mention that those cavalry were all veterans who had been on the battlefield, even if they had only dealt with some mobs and landlords, kobolds and the like, but the full-time soldiers who had killed people and seen blood were not the same as these guys around him who had been trained for a while.
Why do you have to use them to explore some way?
For a moment, that kind of remorse gnawed at the earl's heart like a demon beast, making his eyes a little dark! He didn't know what he had just thought, and he forgot about it. If this is really a trap, then the enemy's mage may not have lost either?
Tiberius Grachus!
He suddenly squeezed a hoarse growl out of his throat, yes, it was that damn bastard, those Thunder Red Dragons he had sent. Are they really carrying out their original plan? Are they really doing enough damage in the city? Are they not doing anything at all? Or even deliberately trying to trick yourself into jumping into this despicable trap?
No. No way.
His mind was spinning rapidly, and the Count jerked his head up.
It might have just been an accident.
On the city wall in front of him, it was still quiet, and there was not a single ambush, let alone a rain of arrows...... Now it looks like the city is still in an undefended state. Even the guys who were shouting on the city wall just now have disappeared. The cavalry rushed into the city, and there was no attempt to close the gates, or an ambush in the city.
So. Could it be that this is just the work of a few mages who survived and didn't want to surrender?
"Attack, attack, rush forward! As long as we occupy the tower, we will win!"
After finding a few possible reasons and comforting himself a little in his heart, Kang Erxin calmed down, then pulled out the long sword at his waist and issued a ...... Looks like the most appropriate command.
Signal mages waved their staffs, and the long-built Stone Shaping technique caused six long stone beams to rise from the ground, and the earth surged to form a black and heavy rock, rumbling into the city walls, and in the blink of an eye, a path to the city was constructed!
And after that, the noble private soldiers began to charge in a messy manner, and one after another the square began to climb over the stone bridge and rush up to the tower. Then, the empty city began to cheer in triumph.
......
"These stupid guys ......"
A thousand feet away, on the top of a two-story house, Leia, who had witnessed this qiē, snorted in a low voice, "It's sad that he reacted exactly like that bastard said." ”
Jing Ling raised her gaze, her already fair skin almost became transparent, and the buzzing in her ears made her unconsciously raise her voice. The terrible sound just now made a faint vibration feel more than a thousand feet away, and for Jing Ling, who had an extraordinarily keen sense of hearing, it was almost deafening......
"It's scary, what is that?" Standing on this wall with a few druids was a young officer, the chamberlain of the city lord who had briefed Edward on the situation, his gaze fixed on the cavalry that was scribbling through the streets. The mouth is wide open to stuff an orange. And the bandages wrapped around his chest, arms and half of his head made him look a little wolf bèi and funny.
Looking at it from here, he couldn't see the explosion at the gate of the city, and could only speculate about the life of this scene through the loud noise and vibration, but he knew very well that this was also the core of this trap, whether it was on the city wall or in the passage, there was not the slightest ambush, nor was there a magician's existence zài, let alone any magical trap, otherwise, the mage among the enemies would inevitably show up in it, even if the commander was an idiot, he would not be able to order the troops to rush across the moat so lightly.
But ironically, it is precisely the moat that 'without any traps' that already hides a huge trap.
"Ah, that's a medicine made by the lord of the city, it's not magic, but it can explode with just a little flame, and he just put that thing under the bridge. Famini, who was standing not far from him, looked excited, and threw out a magic spell that guided animal feelings, making the horses that passed by the alley under his feet run faster, and he replied loudly: "That thing will be used to mine stone in the territory, although the power is not comparable to magic, but." It's also very impressive. ”
"Everything in the world has its own strengths, but if it is compared to cannibalism, there is really no living creature that can compare with human means. Jing Ling gave a cold sneer, and there was actually nothing to see when he withdrew his gaze from the poor cavalrymen, the shock of the explosion, and the deliberate guidance of the druids, had already driven the horses into a frenzy, and they jumped to their heart's content, and galloped towards every path that could be crossed, and the end of the road. But there are soldiers who have been preparing for a long time,
"Effortlessly grabbed five or six hundred light horsemen, but lost some potions?" the young officer seemed to be unable to close his mouth, and looked incredulous: "Your Excellency the Viscount, who is it?"
......
"You. Who are you?" Kang Erxin's gaze tightened suddenly. He clenched the sword in his hand. He spoke sharply.
As if intentionally, at that moment, the lightning parted the clouds, and the thunder roared, directly covering the electric light of the second half of his words, reflecting the thick clouds like lead, and also illuminating a dark shadow close to Kang Erxin.
It was a long robe. A bright, but not dazzling, silver glow was receding from it, revealing a face as dark as a shadow, and the silver light flickered behind it. Sketch out the human form, and then it stood silently, ten feet in front of the Earl's horse, more than a man in the sky.
At the same time as the count was surprised, the two knights had already struck out with a flick of their horses, one left and one right, trying to cross and penetrate this arrogant enemy who dared to rush ahead of them!
However, they are only just moving.
"Be quiet. A strange, powerful voice came from under the black robe, and it seemed to have a unique charm that made it impossible to refute it. And with this sound, a right hand stretched out from under it, and waved at the fellow like a fly.
Moment.
The power of telekinesis was driven by the mind of the telemancer, and the terrifying force crashed into the brave knight, causing his facial features to distort, and the horror in his eyes to twist together, and the skin tore apart after showing the greatest tension, revealing the bright red muscles and plasma underneath.
Then, that body pulled out a gorgeous blood flower in the air, and with a loud bang, it hit Chapter 497 beside him: "Gong Xi...... Well. The acting lord of the city. ”
"His Excellency the Earl has surrendered"
The battlefield was silent for a moment.
The battle line finally wavered at this moment. It was like the last straw that broke the camel's back, and when they now lost their lord, the soldiers who could not advance or retreat finally collapsed on all fronts, or rather, they only resisted a little, and then gave up completely.
"Lord Edward," the young officer was silent for a moment. Then he spoke. "We simply can't hold so many captives in our city, otherwise they would have made a fuss as soon as the enemy attacked the city. We're going to get a lot of attention......"
"What, this ......" the officer paused for a moment, and he asked cautiously, "Lord Edward, are you going to collect a ransom from them......"
There were 3,000 captives here, and they were not ordinary peasant soldiers, but knights with at least official titles, and according to custom, the Empire had to spend a lot of money to buy these high-ranking prisoners of war back, although most of them were just barely awarded titles, but at least they were tens to dozens of platinum coins per person.
But the question is, how could the people of the empire pay this money so lightly?
"Ransom? That must be collected, well, you send a few men and tell the brigade that is coming behind them, that they will exchange food for the prisoners, that they will have two hourglasses to raise it, and that if they do not pay it by then, they will kill these prisoners of war. Also, tell the guys about this before you go. ”
"Then kill them. ”
"Killed...... No kidding. The understatement of the answer made the young man cry out, but at this time the telemancer raised his head, and the moment his eyes met, the officer's voice suddenly became hoarse: "This, Edward...... Acting Lord of the City, according to custom, killing prisoners is a very strict ...... That, crime. Unless the situation is critical, no one will do that lightly......"
"Oh, so?"
Edward groaned, then smiled.
Suddenly, I couldn't help but shudder:
In the end, you can declare that your majesty the king has spared their lives, but with all their equipment, and then let them go back bare-bottomed.
This strange order caused several knights to look at each other, and after a pause, it was Hiyodon who took the lead in asking, "This ...... Master Edward, it's fine to strip off your equipment, but you won't even leave them a single piece of clothing...... Do you want to freeze them to death? But it's almost midsummer, and even in the mountains, the temperature in the middle of the night isn't enough to make these sturdy guys sick, this ......
"Who let you go at night? Tomorrow, when the two sides face each other, let them go back with their bare butts! The brighter the day, the better! The more complete their people, the better!"
"That's an insult to Yan zhòng......"
"Insults? What is there to insult? Do you think that the human body created by God is a very filthy and filthy thing? I did not kill them, nor did I inflict incurable injuries on them, and even if they encountered any unhappiness, it was because the other party refused to pay the ransom. They are prisoners of war, prisoners of war have no property of their own, I have forgiven them, what else do you want to fight for them?"
Xiyoton shrunk his neck, wisely not arguing with that person's life. To be continued. )
