Gehr's choice of where and when to launch the recoil was carefully chosen.

It is located at the southernmost end of the north-south boulevard in Bern, and to the east is the small road that leads to the cemetery. This lifeline of the city, which had been carefully planned at the time of the expansion of Bern, could accommodate more than a dozen horse-drawn carriages side by side, and the road surface was in very good condition, which was suitable for the tactics of small cavalry charges.

And these pursuers are not a well-organized army, although they are not a rabble, but the name discipline basically has nothing to do with them, so in order to speed up the pursuit, everyone scrambles to be the first to cause the formation to be very open, and the thickness is obviously insufficient, but if you have a numerical advantage, this is not a problem, but for Gehr, this is not a flaw is his best use of the opportunity.

A galloping horse bandit at the front of the team sped forward to meet the battle. He wielded a scimitar with a steppe character, and with a strange cry in his mouth, he slashed towards Gehr.

It was as if two thunderbolts were intertwined. The bandit's scimitar slashed through the void air, and Gehr's spear pierced through the throat of the opponent, the tip of which flew out from behind his head. The bandit was taken out of the saddle with the spear that had passed through him.

The all-metal spear, which was very tough, showed its superiority, and the presence of an adult male could only bend its body slightly, without affecting the next stabbing blow in the slightest, until Gehr pierced the chest of the second man, and then threw down the spear that had become a little heavy with the two men hanging on it.

The horse cut through the gap on the left side of the bandit, and Gehr flexibly controlled the horse to avoid colliding with the bandit's horse. Epheros was already in his hand, and the shiny blade reflected the red moonlight. The heads of the horse bandits that followed were attached to the leather armor, and the blood light was pulled out and splashed in the air.

The knives and guns of the horse bandits were killed one after another. Metal murder weapons crisscrossed around Gehr, covering Carmelita who was following from Gehr. The sound of metal and metal colliding, the sound of metal and flesh slashing constantly echoed, although the horse bandits were not lacking in bravery, but they were far inferior to the two in terms of personal martial arts, and even the qualified battle formation combined attack tactics were very lacking, and they couldn't resist Gehr's impact at all, Gehr and Camerita brought out a blood foam with every slash, and the horse bandits' attacks were either blocked or cut into the air. was forced out of the group of horse bandits by the two of them.

When Gehr slashed the third horse bandit off his horse, he suddenly found that Huo Ran was cheerful in front of him, and it turned out that he had completely chiseled through the horse bandits' team.

With a single strike, another horse bandit was swept off the saddle with a splash of blood, clearing the backyard obstacle that stood in Camerita's path. The horse bandits who destroyed Bern under the fire were like a group of helpless young children when faced with the swordsmanship of Gehr and the goddess officer, unable to parry without being able to form a group attack advantage.

When the line is penetrated. The lack of discipline of the bandits was magnified to the extreme, and some of the people who were at the front continued to run, some slowed down their horses, and some were ready to turn around. And the people behind who didn't face the impact of Gehr didn't understand the situation for a while, and still rushed forward with their heads down, colliding with their companions who suddenly slowed down. Although the damage was not large, it also successfully caused the horse bandit team to fall into chaos for a while.

"Come on. Turn, do it again!" Gerha laughed. looked at the goddess officer who was okay on the lower surface, and turned directly to the horse, and without waiting for the goddess officer to react, he once again attacked from the back of the horse bandit.

The horse neighed loudly as if it were in response to the knight's boiling blood, and carried the knight towards the enemy.

This time the charge was easier, and many of the bandits were cut down from behind by Gehr and Carmelita before they could figure out what was going on, and after killing several people in succession, the two returned to the place where they had started the charge, and this time they did not stop, and went straight down the fork in the road to chase after their companions who had gone first.

By the time the horse bandits, who had fallen into chaos, finally restored order and started the pursuit again, Gehr and Carmelita had already thrown them out of about two hundred meters.

The unwilling horse bandits continued their pursuit, following Gehr's direction into a relatively narrow path, and the line stretched into a long line.

Just as the bandits were following their trail to the back half of the trail, the sound of Emlock's bagpipes, which they could not recognize, echoed through the streets, and in an instant, with a strong gust of wind, covered the front of the bandits like arrows.

In the crowded streets, where it was impossible to dodge left and right, the pursuers let out a scream and fell one after another, and the horses began to scurry and crash in all directions in the severe pain caused by the arrows, which further exacerbated the confusion of the team, causing the pursuers to be completely blocked in the streets.

These special cone-shaped heavy arrows were used against heavy cavalry, and it was effortless to deal with these bandits, who were not even lightly armoured, whether they were men or horses, as long as they were shot, they were pierced with a triangular tearing wound, and their rudimentary armor had little effect.

In just one minute, the two waves of arrows in front and behind cost the pursuers nearly twenty lives, of which at least one-third of the casualties were caused by the horses thrown off the saddle and trampled by the horses' hooves.

Suddenly, the pursuers saw that something was wrong, so they dispelled the idea of continuing the pursuit, turned their horses' heads and scattered, and soon disappeared into the night, leaving behind some slower companions to add some more to the ambushers' victory.

After all, these bandits are here to make a fortune, and once they don't get back a significant amount of money from what they have paid, their will to fight will drop dramatically.

After the pursuers completely retreated, more than a dozen black shadows on the roofs of the buildings on both sides came out of their respective hidden positions, and they were the people who had set up an ambush one step ahead.

After reuniting, the crowd did not clean the battlefield, and left quickly, and soon saw the cemetery.

It is a place of green grass and pine forests, surrounded by metal railings, which appear peaceful and silent.

As a place of eternal rest, no one would come at night, and the lonely night's watchman's cabin at the entrance to the cemetery was empty, full of signs of hastily leaving.

"Found it. Go this way. ”

The goddess took out a drawing and compared it for a while, and led everyone towards the corner of the cemetery.

Crossed the neat gravestone area. The goddess led the crowd to a somewhat deserted corner, where there were no tombstones. Everywhere were crooked and broken gray and white stones, interspersed with a bulging dirt bag from time to time, and green weeds arched out from between the stones and the dirt slope, looking very dilapidated.

In this era, long-distance travelers are not only threatened by bandits, but also by illness and death, and it is not uncommon for Bern, which has a high concentration of passengers, to encounter sudden deaths due to sudden illness or other reasons. The corpses of those who could not find relatives and friends would be transported here for burial, and a hastily dug pit would be dug and buried.

Arriving at this mass grave area, Carmelita walked around the edge of the area a few times, as if calculating something, and finally stopped at the edge of a dirt slope with several broken stone slabs inserted diagonally, then crouched down, groped for a while on the grass, seemed to be sure of something, and said to the people behind: "This is the place." Dig down. ”

Several men who had already taken their digging tools stepped forward and began to dig in the direction that Camelrita was pointing, and soon dug a pit with a radius of about one meter and a depth of more than half a meter.

Ding. The clashing of metal and stone suddenly came from the pit.

The goddess told the digger to retreat, walked to the edge of the pit, and groped in the pit for a while. Suddenly, her right hand pulled towards Lu, and she saw a metal ring on her hand.

With her strain. The stone slab that connected the other end of the metal ring was pulled out and set aside. A dark hole underneath was revealed.

Gehr leaned over to see that there was a black hole under the slate, and the rectangular black hole could not see the bottom at a glance, and the strange thing was that there was no rancid feeling in the secret passage after being sealed for a long time, and the air gushing out was still moist with moisture.

"That's it. The goddess said affirmatively.

Gehr lit a torch and went to the mouth of the cave to take a picture, and found that the hole was large enough for an adult male to walk upright in it, and reached out to probe the edge of the black hole, feeling the cool breeze blowing from the hole.

A member of the Church was the first to enter the cave with a torch, and after about five minutes, the member of the Church who had taken the lead in exploring the path returned safely and brought back the information that everything was in order, and the people waiting outside were generally relieved, and then immediately entered the secret passage that could safely enter Bern as planned.

......

Let's go it.

The crisp sound of horses' hooves echoed across the stone path, and each lift of the horse's hooves carried the sound of water, as if stepping on a water-soaked blanket.

Looking around, the scene was bloody, the entire stone path was completely soaked in blood, and there were not very complete stumps everywhere, some were missing heads, some were directly cut in half by sharp weapons, some simply seemed to be torn off by wild beasts, and even some were flattened and pasted, and there were all kinds of ways to die.

The smell of the whole scene was extremely pungent, but Flomien, who was sitting on the horse, didn't seem to feel the harsh environment here, but just frowned and studied this cruel scene.

"Big brother, it's confirmed, this should be one of the bandits that Moreo said came in through the hole in the defensive line. There was a hurried sound of horses' hooves, and Flanagan rode his horse to the Grand Prince's side.

"Are there other forces in the palace area?"

"Maybe, those people are hiding quite deeply, and some of the strength we don't know is normal. ”

"Well, I'll take someone over to take a look, you and Estud will re-establish the outer defenses of the palace area, and when I come back, we will start clearing the palace area. ”

"Okay, what about the civilian area below?"

"I can't care so much, it's the most important thing to clear out a safe piece of land first, by the way, you have to pay attention to the amount of power in the hands of those people, and don't put it in a critical position. The people referred to by the eldest prince are the nobles who are attached to them, and after today's events, there has been some estrangement between the royal family and the nobility, and the foundation of trust between the two is already very weak.

"I got it. Flanagan nodded yes.

Soon, the cavalry waiting on one side divided into two teams and left in different directions with the two princes. (To be continued......)
