Lord of Riders - Chapter 305
The black cavalry had not had time to clean the battlefield. Ruda Boye’s troops came back again.
The black cavalry sentry ran back and reported to Shao Yu, “My lord, a large number of enemy troops have been found in the direction of Tosdell Village”
“How many people are there in the enemy” Shao Yu asked
“There are about three hundred people, my lord,” the sentry replied
“Well, no hurry, we’re here waiting for them” Shao Yu ordered unhurriedly
“My lord, should we avoid the enemy’s edge” Kane asked Shao Yu for instructions to retreat
“We can’t let these enemies pass. This is a good opportunity to establish the reputation of the Black Cavalry” Shao Yu laughed.
“It’s useless for fifty elite heavy-armored cavalry to fight but three hundred infantry in the field, and three months of hard work is in vain,” Shao Yu thought.
But it is not so easy to defeat the enemy army of more than 300 people.
“Order the whole army to attack, retreat with one blow, don’t get entangled with the enemy” Shao Yu considered that the soldiers’ physique is not as good as that of Kane and others, and they are not very good at fighting, so he ordered.
After Ruda Boyer’s troops retreated to Tosdell, they soon encountered the troops of Lord Salton who came to support them. The two armies combined, about 300 troops, rushed to Deherim again for reinforcements.
However, the existence of Shao Yu made it difficult for them to rush to Deherim again. Not long after the coalition of Ruda Boyer and Salton left the village of Tosdell, the black cavalry caught up again.
The Black Cavalry tried their best to give full play to the advantages of the cavalry in the wild, and launched a full charge. Most of Salton’s soldiers were Nord recruits and Nord light infantry. The cavalry charged.
Lord Salton attempted to drag the black cavalry with a superior number and then proceeded to siege. However, under Shao Yu’s order, the black cavalry did not entangle them at all. They retreated with one blow, and the Nord infantry could not catch up with the swift response. The cavalry can only watch the enemy run away unharmed.
Shao Yu commanded the Black Cavalry to strangle the Nord Infantry in succession, but Salton and others could not fight back. Except for a few Black Cavalry soldiers being injured by Salton and his guards Nord Warriors (the powerful Nord heavy infantry, good use of heavy axes and throwing axes, javelins, etc., Nord IV infantry) almost nothing What casualties. Salton has a headache, but can’t help it. When did Swadia have such an elite knight force, the Nord Kingdom has no news about it, and it is now very passive.
Ruda Fort, Lord’s Hall
“Uncle Dylan, hurry up and transfer me troops. I’m going to save my father. What if he gets caught?” A little girl yelled and stalked and wanted to take the troops out of the city.
“Miss, the enemy’s cavalry is too powerful, you must not go,” the old housekeeper Dylan persuaded me bitterly. This wayward eldest lady, hearing that Ruda was attacked and defeated, she just clamored to lead troops to support her.
The old butler, Dylan, followed Ruda Boyer for more than forty years and fought in the north and south. Now he is the Royal Guard of the Nord (the most powerful Nord heavy infantry unit, the sharp heavy axe is extremely lethal, and it throws ’S throwing axe can easily destroy a sturdy shield), and he is also the commander-in-chief of the Ruda Fort. However, this powerful fighter who is enough to make the enemy fearful on the battlefield has nothing to do with this stubborn eldest lady. .
“Miss, the enemy is all elite heavy cavalry. I am afraid that we are not opponents when we go to support.” Dylan has been in the army for decades, knowing the inferior position of infantry to cavalry in the field. What’s more, the Black Cavalry, a cavalry unit of unknown origin, is all heavy cavalry.
“Then my father, what should I do if I get captured?” Aisha couldn’t help crying as she said.
On the battlefield, fierce fighting is still going on. Shao Yu personally led the army to rush, the crescent scimitar in his hand was flying up and down quickly to harvest the lives of Nord soldiers. Except for a few elite soldiers who can organize effective defenses, for other soldiers, it is simply a slaughter.
In just over an hour, more than 200 soldiers fell under the iron hooves of the Black Cavalry. The remaining soldiers formed a group to resist the cavalry’s offensive, but the effect was still poor. It is difficult for the Nords’ throwing axes to hit the fast-moving knights. With the charge of the Black Cavalry, the Nord’s soldiers quickly reduced to just over fifty.
Every time the Black Cavalry initiates an assault, their sharp lances will take away the lives of dozens of soldiers. This battle has now become a massacre. The soldiers of the Black Cavalry were once captured prisoners who were defeated in the war. However, they are still not comparable to these recruits in front of them.
The black cavalry is about to launch the next round of charge. Ruda Boye shouted to Shao Yu, “Stop, stop, sir, I surrender”
“Stop!” Shao Yu immediately ordered to stop the attack
“Sir, congratulations, you won,” Ruda Boyer said helplessly. “Stop it. I don’t want my soldiers to die needlessly.”
“Lord Ruda, you are the act of a coward.” Seeing that Ruda had suddenly surrendered at this critical juncture, Salton suddenly cursed dissatisfiedly.
“I am responsible for the lives of my soldiers” Lord Ruda retorted immediately.
“Let your soldiers lay down their weapons, we will treat the prisoners preferentially” Shao Yu said coldly
These Nord soldiers have long been killed by the Black Cavalry and lost their fighting spirit. Now Lord Ruda has offered to surrender. These soldiers are even more reluctant to resist. Everyone has a family to support, who wants to use it meaninglessly. All my lives are lost here. In the Nord Kingdom and even in Swadia, there is no compensation for defeat and death.
“The soldiers of Fort Ruda~www.mtlnovel.com~ lay down their weapons” Ruda Boye reluctantly ordered, and the soldiers dropped their weapons one after another.
Salton was still reluctant to lay down his weapons. After all, the defeat and surrender was a shame for a nobleman, but it was obviously unrealistic to use his 30 soldiers against the Black Cavalry.
However, before Salton ordered, the soldiers had already thrown away their weapons and surrendered. The Nords are fierce and militant, but they don’t want to just die unexplainably.
Shao Yu saw that he had successfully crash-landed the enemy, and his heart was happy. This is the power of the Black Cavalry, and he succeeded in the first battle. However, on the surface it was still cold.
So far, Shao Yu’s promise is basically fulfilled. For the Swadia Kingdom to block the 500-man enemy army, Lord Ruda and Lord Salton’s forces combined are almost 500.
Shao Yu captured the troops under Lord Ruda Boyer and Lord Salton, and was about to **** the captives to Fort De Chieus, but there was a sound of horseshoes in the distance.
Soon, a girl riding a snow-white steed ran to Shao Yujun and blocked Shao Yu’s path.
