Chapter 314: Charge, Unicorn Knights

Running all the way, Wright and Emily finally returned to Bordertown.

And the unicorn cavalry regiment also received the news and set off from the elven empire and rushed to the border city.

It was only after a long time that Wright had seen the Knights of the Unicorns for the first time.

After systematic training, the Unicorn Knights have completed their initial formation and training.

Looking at the neat and uniform knights, Wright was so cool in his heart!

The unicorns were covered in silver-white hair, and the elven knights on their backs were all heroic.

On top of that, their armor is also a mixture of silver and mythril, giving it an elegant silvery-white color.

As far as the eye can see, a piece of silver-white brushes is refreshing to look at.

But...... The guy at the head looks really a bit of an eyesore.

"Emily, get out of here!"

"I don't!"

Emily hugged the unicorn king's neck: "I'm going too!" I'm a unicorn rider too! ”

"You're still a knight!"

Wright stepped forward and pulled Emily down, "This is the Unicorn Knights, going to capture the next city defense."

It's not an autumn outing, you can bring one more or less!

Besides, do you know how to ride a horse?

Don't embarrass me here for your rotten riding skills. ”

Ever since the two returned from the rear of the Empire, Emily has been obsessed with unicorn knights.

It is said that every girl hopes that she can meet the prince who rides a white horse, but she didn't expect Emily to want to ride a white horse herself.

But this guy's riding skills are really miserable, let alone getting on the horse to fight.

This application, naturally, was vetoed by Wright with one veto.

I thought this guy would give up on his own, but I didn't expect that I needed to go on the expedition today, and she came to make trouble again.

"I'm not messing around, I really have a way to improve my riding skills to the same level as other knights! Or even higher! ”

"Are you kidding me?"

"You! Look at this! ”

Emily suddenly pulled out a card from her cuff, with a number of four written on it, and then a knight in silver armor printed on the card!

"Huh? Magic Cards? ”

"Hmph, this is what I captured from the fairy tale world, Silverhelm Knight! If I use him, I will be blessed with horsemanship! ”

Emily shook the card, her face full of pride, and pointed to the knights behind her.

"Besides! These elves have only been trained for less than half a month.

The unicorn knights before them, the inheritance is also broken.

The previous unicorn knights left them some training manuals and uniform equipment.

Their situation, that is, a little better than the druid, is limited.

As long as I use this card, I can have the ability to go on expeditions with them!

And!

Now only I can ride the King of Unicorns!

If the King of Unicorns participates in the expedition, the Unicorn Knights will be even more combative!

You don't want the Unicorn Knights to suffer heavy losses in the battle, do you?

With me and the King of Unicorns, we can minimize this loss! ”

Seeing that Emily was talking about the truth, Wright knocked on her head angrily.

"Where did you learn all this nonsense?"

Wright looked at the neat unicorn knights, and indeed hesitated.

This class is too expensive, whether it is a unicorn or an elven cavalry, which one is an extremely rare class.

At the same time, the combat effectiveness is also considerable.

But as long as the fight starts, there will definitely be losses, there is no doubt about this.

If Emily joins, with the command ability of the King of Unicorns, it will definitely greatly strengthen the combat effectiveness of the entire Knights.

Can......

Wright looked at Emily who was eager to try, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help twitching.

"I'm mainly, I can't rest assured of you."

Emily was very moved: "I didn't expect my status to be so important in your heart!" ”

"I'm afraid you'll spoil my Unicorn Knights."

"It's all said, no! I have a knight card! Even if you don't believe me, don't you believe in your belt and elemental armament system? ”

Seeing her insistence, Wright finally had to give up.

"Okay, you can go. However, you can't take the lead, you can only follow everyone's buttocks. ”

"This ...... All right. ”

Emily saw that Wright had made a concession, and she stopped dwelling on it. She didn't care much about the location herself, she mainly wanted to go with her and become a member of the Unicorn Knights.

After all, from a very young age, Emily had a strong interest in the elves.

For her, whether it is an elf, a druid, a unicorn, or an ancient tree of life, it is a being that she once revered.

Now that I have the opportunity to fulfill my childhood fantasy, I have to give it a try!

Wright also understands this point, otherwise he wouldn't have spent so much effort on studying the elementalization of the human body, and finally started a Urut Toramane sect.

"All of them! Let's go! ”

With Wright's permission, Emily happily rode back to the group on the Unicorn King.

The original leader of the Unicorn Knights immediately issued an order, and then led the Knights to the front.

This time, it was still an undeclared war.

Behind the six border cities is a vast grassland area.

After passing through this endless open field, you really reached the interior of the empire.

And here, there are ten cities, large and small, which can be regarded as the second line of defense of the empire.

In fact, when it comes to this, it can no longer be said to be a simple line of defense.

After all, these cities are very everyday cities, completely different from border cities that are built specifically to guard the frontier.

However, with the retreat of the Imperial Prince General Michael to these cities, the people here finally got a taste of the dire living conditions of the people in the border cities.

This General Macelcer can be said to have been anxious by the elves, and he didn't care about the collective opposition of the top echelons of the empire, and directly recruited troops in these ten cities.

All men of the right age were thrown into the barracks, and women and older men were called as servants to take care of the huge army.

Since entering the state of war, everyone's life has been getting worse day by day.

They even hope that the front line will start a war quickly, and whoever wins or loses will be able to get out of this nightmarish life.

Privately, people even prefer the elves to win.

Because, the affairs of the border city have spread among the people through the special channels of the Holy Light Church.

The elves did not occupy the city after conquering it, but the people of the Holy Light Church took over the management and reconstruction of the city.

This, this, this!

For the people who are distressed by the expulsion of the Holy Subjects from the Empire, it is simply a godsend.

I didn't expect that there would be such a way to join the sequence of the Holy Domain!

It's really, so wonderful!

And just as they expected, the Unicorn Knights rushed straight out of the gap in the middle of the border city, and quickly headed for the second line of defense.

Because the area of the plain between the first and second lines of defense is so vast, the enemy got the news when the unicorn knights were halfway through their advance.

When Michael heard this, he was furious, and immediately gathered all his troops, ready to fight this group of pointy ears on the grassland!

He always felt that his failure in Border City was due to the terrain!

Now that it's time for his own side of the terrain to play, he must get back all that he has lost!

"Assemble! Gather all the cavalry here!! ”

Michael roared and gave orders, and his chief of staff immediately ran to persuade him.

"Your Excellency, there are more than 20,000 cavalry in ten cities, and the number of enemies is said to be only 1,000.

Are you planning to forcibly kill the other party with twenty times the number of people?

Even if you win in the end, you will be reprimanded by Your Majesty! ”

"Hahahaha, reprimand, what's the use of reprimanding? As long as I can wash away my shame, even if there are 100,000 cavalry, I have to pull them out together! ”

The general stretched out his hand and pointed to a point on the military map: "I have obtained specific information about them from my excellent scout captain.

Don't look at them as unicorn knights, but in fact, they don't domesticate these unicorns for more than half a month at all.

Coupled with training and running-in, it will take half a year to form combat effectiveness.

Therefore, these cavalry are all showmanship, and they are not worth mentioning at all.

Now I have to not only deal with it head-on, but also achieve a landslide victory to reverse the atmosphere of the Empire's gradual decline and restore everyone's confidence! Confidence against the elves! ”

"However, 20,000 is not a bit of a fuss. In the unlikely event that the enemy strikes from other directions, we will be passive without highly mobile cavalry. ”

"Don't worry, they only sent cavalry this time!"

"Where did you get the information?"

"My scout party!"

“…… I wanted to tell you before, you put too much faith in the scout captain! ”

Michaelse couldn't listen to these words at this time: "Don't worry about it, these unicorn knights are not as terrible as they seem!"

Besides, even if there is a greasy situation, a 20-fold gap in troops, how can you lose, you just say how to lose?

I'm an Imperial General, can I not understand this?

Charge straight over and win!

By the time the opposing cavalry was wiped out, they lost the ability to advance further.

With their strange magical plants and powerful firepower, it is impossible to win the swift and agile cavalry in the plains.

When the time comes, the crisis of the elves will be resolved.

This is a battle we must fight! ”

Seeing that the general was already a little crazy, the chief of staff sighed helplessly.

At this moment, the herald outside hurriedly ran in.

"General! We're ready to go. The cavalry has also assembled at the city gates! Waiting for your review. ”

General Michael took on his helmet and pinned his sword to his waist.

"This time, I'll take the lead! Victory must be ours! ”

"Yes, General!"

The mighty army marched from the outlying cities of the second line of defense and headed in the direction of the Unicorn Knights.

They both rushed to each other, and in less than half a day, they met in the middle.

The two sides looked at each other's troops across the dense grasslands.

The 20,000 cavalry led by General Michael Cer had already opened a long distance with the rear legions because of their relatively fast speed.

On the elven side, there are only a thousand cavalry regiments.

At this moment, on the steppe, there are two pure cavalry opposing each other.

As for Wright, he sat on the back of a giant crow and looked down on the battlefield from the air.

He came here to see what kind of tricks the First Empire could bring. But when he saw the 20,000 cavalry, he couldn't help but give a thumbs up.

Yes! Yes, he is worthy of being the first general of the empire.

This kind of play, without any bells and whistles, and directly crushing with troops, does look very rough.

But the battlefield is the battlefield, not the stage for juggling.

If there is an absolute superiority in forces, who would want to play tricks?

Only when the strength is not good and there is no certainty of victory, will they go to the camp of those who have not there.

Although the art of war is also important, it also depends on the situation. At least for the Empire, it is better than this method, that is, to wait for the subsequent infantry phalanx and other troops to arrive one after another, and then start the war.

In this way, even if you can't win, you still have a backing.

It's a pity that the general, who has been stuffed with hatred and humiliation, doesn't have the extra brain capacity to store patience.

As soon as he saw the elves' unicorn knights again, he drew his long knife.

"For the Empire! Offensive!! ”

Then he pulled the reins and rushed out in the lead.

"For the !! of the Empire"

Cavalry is one of the most expensive types of troops in ancient times. After all, with the same equipment, the cavalry already has more expenses for making mounts.

But there are disadvantages, and cavalry is definitely the most loyal existence among the major arms.

Nor is it based on any chivalry, or on its own good qualities.

Purely because of the high cost of cavalry, in order to prevent them from defecting, the high-ranking people will generally be on guard, set up treaties to prevent betrayal, and even hijack the other party's wife and children to prevent the other party from defecting.

Therefore, although he had some opinions about the general, the leader of the airborne, under his roar, he still raised his spear and killed the unicorn knights.

The charge of 20,000 people, even Wright couldn't help but widen his eyes.

"This is rare! Wow...... Dust is flying! ”

However, in the face of such a terrifying scene, the members of the Unicorn Knights were unmoved.

They took out their cavalry swords and began to gather their magic.

Their unicorn mounts are also beginning to gather magic, and a kind of resonance is gradually coming between the two.

Wright always felt that he had seen it somewhere, and after thinking about it, he suddenly slapped his head.

Isn't that exactly how Dragon Knight works? Having the knight and mount share spirit and mana reserves makes the effect of one plus one far greater than two on both sides.

"Knights!"

The elven leader shouted angrily: "It's time to show our anger to the enemy!"

Knights of the Silver Rhythm! Charge!!! ”

"Rush, !!"

More than 1,000 elves launched a counter-charge against more than 20,000 enemies. They are covered in powerful magic, and their speed is getting faster and faster.

Emily sat in the unicorn king and took out her belt.

"It's time to show off your real riding skills!"
