Tom didn't have time to look again, because the enemy was already rushing in front of them.
He was about to order the arrows to be fired, but unexpectedly, something happened again. Anton, who had been quiet all this time, suddenly jumped out from behind them and ran towards the group of black-armored cavalry, still shouting.
"Wait a minute, I'm not the same as them, I'm also from the Silver Moon Church! My name is Anton, and I'm the common language teacher sent by the church to the Arias family!"
"Idiot! Come back quickly!" As soon as Tom finished speaking, Anton was already less than ten steps away from the front rider.
Then the Common Language teacher saw the other party draw the long sword from his waist.
"Really! I really am the Silver Moon Sect..." Anton said anxiously, but before he could finish his words, the sword in the knight's hand had already fallen down and struck him on the chest mercilessly!
The Common Language teacher let out a scream and fell to the ground. His blood splashed out and sprinkled on the bushes nearby, like little red flowers blooming.
But Tom had no time to care about his life and death at this moment, and yelled, "Shoot!"
The soldiers of the Black Dog Guard pressed the switch together, and the crossbow arrows flew out from the arms of the crossbow, creating a gust of wind!
The two sides are now only twenty or thirty steps away from each other. At such a close distance, and with the help of a laser sight, even when shooting at a moving target, the accuracy is still guaranteed. At least half of the arrows hit the target.
Unfortunately, the opponent's body was also protected by a full set of armor, so most of the shots Tom and his team shot were at non-vital parts outside the armor.
Although the cavalrymen were hit by arrows, they only let out a few muffled grunts and still rushed towards us despite the pain. Only one of the black dog guard soldiers missed the target a bit. Instead, he hit a war horse in the eye.
The horse neighed and fell to the ground.
They also flew out with the riders on their backs, and later they tripped over another war horse that was unable to dodge, causing a small chaos.
Tom now regrets why he chose to shoot a man instead of a horse.
But there is no way, this is the price of growth.
Many famous marshals always suffered repeated defeats before becoming famous marshals. When Tom was a mercenary, he was not the commander of the team. After joining the Black Dog Guard, he had the opportunity to lead a team on his own.
Coupled with the high level of mental stress at the moment, oversights in command will inevitably occur.
But now was not the time to reflect. It was too late to reload the hand crossbow, so Tom just threw it aside and charged forward with his sword.
A head-on confrontation is impossible, after all, the enemy is cavalry.
Tom just fired a feint, then stepped aside to deal with the cavalry.
In comparison, the lizardmen warriors under him were much more upright. They waved their shield weapons and screamed, running towards the enemy. As a result, they were slashed with swords from the opposite side. They raised their dragon scale shields to block, and then struck down.
In an instant, he and his shield were chopped down to the ground.
The dragon scale shield was indeed strong enough to withstand the sword without any damage, but the cavalry's momentum was also very strong.
Even if they were protected by armor, so that those lizardman warriors would not be instantly killed in one round like the Common Language teacher, they still suffered such a heavy fall that many of them were unable to get up from the ground for a while.
But perhaps inspired by Li Yu's miracle of walking on water, all the Black Dog Guards are now as pumped as chickens, and their morale is through the roof. Moreover, because the black armored cavalry soldiers were divided into two groups, the black dog guards here are now
The dog guards actually had the advantage in numbers.
One person was knocked down, and nearby companions rushed towards the knight on the horse.
While the cavalrymen were also shaken by the force of the counter-shock and unable to attack, they pounced forward and pulled the enemy off their horses.
In addition, Tom, the team leader, also found a sense of command at this time, and he had an idea, "Cut the horses' legs and force them to dismount!"
Needless to say, this trick is quite effective.
Except for one who broke through quickly, the remaining five cavalrymen were forced to jump off their horses.
But even if they lost their mounts and faced nearly twice as many enemies, the black-armored cavalry showed no signs of panic. They didn't even ask for help from their companions in the other group, but calmly drew their swords to fight off the enemies.
Tom found the enemy closest to him and rushed forward, and then said to the lizard man warrior standing by who wanted to help, "Leave this guy to me, and you go help others."
The team leader's resolute eyes and confident tone made him look fashionable in front of his subordinates, and his image also became taller.
However, after the fight, Tom was shocked because he was suppressed by the opponent!
The swordsmanship of the cavalryman he fought was simply terrifying. Among the mercenaries, Tom was already one of the very skilled ones, but against him, he basically only got beaten and defended, with almost no counterattack.
Chance.
This was because the equipment on his body was better than that of his opponent, otherwise Tom would have probably been lying down by now.
But if the fight continues like this, it will be a matter of time before he is killed by the opponent.
So Tom didn't care about his face anymore and shouted at the top of his lungs, "Someone, someone, this one is a bit fierce!"
Although the team leader broke his promise and got slapped in the face at the speed of light, the lizard warrior below still gave him face. After hearing his cry for help, someone came nearby soon, but two against one, he could only draw with the black armored cavalry.
.
So Tom started to use his brain again, and said to the lizard man warrior who was facing the enemy with him, "I'm dragging him here, you go pick up the crossbow, load the arrows, and give him a shot."
Since the lizard people don't know Common Language and have only learned some basic combat vocabulary, Tom's own lizard human language is also average. If the content of an order is too complicated, he has to repeat it several times, which makes even the black armored cavalry on the opposite side listen.
I understand what Tom wants to do.
The power of his sword suddenly became sharper, which also greatly increased the pressure on Tom. Fortunately, the lizard man warrior understood what he said, and immediately left his opponent behind and went to pick up the hand crossbow thrown aside.
And here Tom also used what he had learned throughout his life and tried his best to hold off his opponent.
For this reason, even his left hand was hung with a sword, and his neck was almost hit by a sword, which shocked him into a cold sweat, but fortunately, he finally waited until the other side was ready to load the crossbow.
The lizard man warrior didn't aim at any vital place. He just found the enemy's calf and shot out with an arrow. Although the black-armored cavalry was also trying to dodge, at such a close distance, with the help of the laser sight, this shot
The arrow cannot miss.
There was still a sharp pain in his calf, making him almost unable to move.
Of course, Tom would not give up this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and he immediately became obsessed with it.
