Empires Start with Lords - Chapter 25
Inside the city, a group of soldiers opened the city gate. A huge, large marching cart, which was as wide as the city gate, was quite frightening, with a width of tens of meters and a length of tens of meters. The catapult ran over.
Rhea noticed something was wrong, and when he looked up and looked forward, the wheel of the marching vehicle, which was as tall as one person, rolled forward directly.
The speed was even faster than that of horses and carriages, and thick smoke billowed from the back of the carriage.
It turned out that when Ross asked the craftsmen to make the mechanism, he added something to the back that burned and pushed the car body forward. This thing is still the gunpowder that Ross used when he fought the goblin army in the goblin forest.
Unfortunately, there are only a dozen barrels of gunpowder left, and Ross will need half a barrel of gunpowder for this charge.
Wow!
Rhea was about to blurt out the word escape when he saw that a group of soldiers in front had been pierced through the chest by the sharp blade in front of the military vehicle, only a few dozen meters away from Rhea.
Even with the resistance of a hundred people in front, the reel seemed to have not hit a single foreign object at all, and rushed towards it abruptly.
And the army behind Rhea was still working hard to carry three catapults, and had no time to take care of the front.
“Run!”
Rhea shouted like a madman, and he rolled to the side as if he was running for his life in a hurry, looking extremely embarrassed.
And even if Rhea tried his best to shout to the army behind him, they didn’t have time to escape.
Because, Ross used seven or eight such huge marching carts in one go.
There was a rumbling sound, and the rear end of the marching vehicle erupted in bursts of rumbling smoke, and the speed increased a bit.
This makes the speed of these carts as if they are on a slope, and the size of the wheels can exceed the height of a person, which also makes the carts more invisible and impossible to stop.
Soon, several hundred more soldiers were crushed to death in an instant, and the remaining soldiers fled in all directions in an instant, finally escaping part of the soldiers.
However, the car was still rushing all the way, and soon crushed a pile of enemy corpses on the ground. The sharp blade in front and the elongated thorns on both sides of the wheel also killed hundreds of enemy troops.
In the end, the 7,000 soldiers who had dismantled the enemy force abruptly, were completely disrupted by these carts into a dozen groups of people, and their power was not as strong as before.
Ross nodded with satisfaction, looking at the enemy on the battlefield with a strange expression.
Military merit: 1688
With this cart, Ross killed nearly 1,700 people, and many of them were stormtroopers and knights.
If they weren’t too concentrated, Ross wouldn’t have achieved such a good number of kills, thanks to Rhea’s offensive strategy.
Although it seems that these enemy troops are still a lot more than Ross’s troops, but fortunately Ross has completely disrupted the enemy’s formation.
“Next, it’s my home field advantage.”
Ross smiled and ordered, “Call the longbowmen in ambush on both sides to shoot arrows, and cooperate with the 500 heavy-armed knights in ambush to carry out encirclement and suppression.”
After Ross finished speaking, the longbowmen who were ambushing on both sides of the enemy army immediately became dominant, and shot and killed dozens of enemy knights fleeing everywhere.
In order to avoid crowding and suppressing groups of thousands of enemy soldiers who had escaped and dispersed into a concentrated state, Ross was very careful to let the catapults in front continue to attack.
The enemy troops who were knocked apart by the huge body of the marching cart must be sent to flee again.
But Ross also knew that such well-trained soldiers and knights would soon find that Ross’s marching vehicles had stopped attacking, and even in their rear, they would soon regroup to attack Ross.
Therefore, Ross directly asked the Knights Templar to prepare to charge.
The Knights Templar, which is ready to go, is one of the strongest human knights, second only to the two professions of gods and demons. It has attributes that surpass all human knight occupations, and has a high-intensity tacit understanding, as well as super-high personal attributes.
The reason Ross hid it at the end was because the Knights Templar was his strongest trump card.
Moreover, there are only 500 knights in a Knights Templar order, but they cost 20,000 gold coins to buy.
You must know that in addition to sending troops to crusade other territories, only in the face of such a large-scale battle will Ross get a lot of military merit in exchange for gold coins.
In this tough battle, it has only wiped out more than 2,000 enemy troops and gained 2,300 military exploits.
These military exploits were only 23,000 gold coins, and they were barely able to exchange for a Knights Templar.
Therefore, Ross’s Knights Templar is the most cherished of all military forces.
However, Ross didn’t know whether Marquis Raisel also had such a trump card. After confirming that Rhea did not have a knight order of this level, he ordered the charge of the Knights Templar!
After the charge, the knights riding white horses, wearing white knight uniforms, holding sharp blades or judgment shields quickly rushed into the enemy’s army~www.mtlnovel.com~ The enemy’s rear just gathered thousands of people, He was suddenly defeated by this powerful force and fled away.
A Templar stepped on the corpses of a dozen stormtroopers that had just been slashed, and chased the figures of a dozen other knights.
The dozen or so knights fled in fright, regardless of their superiority in numbers.
Because the power of the Templars has already produced a shocking effect on them, and also produced a skill: Intimidation!
Just like these enemy troops who were scared to run everywhere, the reason was that they were intimidated by these Templar Knights who were like the descending gods of death, and they just ran away regardless of victory.
However, this skill only lasted for more than ten seconds, and the opponent’s morale was quickly pulled up again.
But in these few minutes, their lineup was quickly disrupted out of control.
“This……”
Rhea was originally hiding in a grass and wanted to ride back to command the army, but found that the army of 6,000 people was being ravaged by the Rus army of more than 1,000 people at the moment, and Rhea felt a sense of shame and shame. Shock.
“Clap!”
Huh!
Just as Rhea got on his horse, he was spotted by an English longbowman within a few steps and shot him severely.
Rhea pulled out a sharp arrow, and just wanted to escape, when another Templar came over, glanced at Rhea, who fell to the ground, and slashed directly with the knight’s sword.
For some reason, Rhea seemed to have a little fear of him.
“What’s the matter, how could I, a knight commander, be afraid of a Templar.”
Soon, Rhea pulled out the knife at his waist and charged towards the English longbowman.
“careful!”
Just as the Templars reminded, the English longbowman was pierced by a sword in his chest.
