According to Reggie's vision, this battle should be very difficult. The strength of the two sides is really very different. The first round of artillery may give the opponent some shock, but if the opponent makes some tactical adjustments, there is no chance of turning the tide of the battle.
.
For example, Chris once made an assumption that if the opponent lets the infantry charge from the front and the cavalry attacks from the wings, all the firepower will be attracted by the infantry, and the cavalry will have the opportunity to engage in hand-to-hand combat. In that case, even if
Reggie can win, but he has to pay a heavy price.
To take a step back, even if the opponent cannot respond so quickly, they can also choose to temporarily withdraw their troops and attack in another way. Although the infantry is not fast, it is still much more flexible than these thousands-pound artillery.
A war horse can only pull a cannon and walk slowly. By the time it catches up with the enemy, it is feared that the enemy has already reached the gate of Broken Snow City.
Reggie prepared for the worst. He had already moved all the people and supplies into the city. What he didn't expect was that Narses's staunch style of hitting the bottom with a stick surprised him and also surprised him.
He was pleasantly surprised.
After Goel announced his defection, the war had lost its suspense. Goel was in front of Nar with a lance in the blink of an eye.
Not only was Narses mentally ill, but his skills were also surprisingly poor. He was knocked to the ground by Goel in just one round. Just as Goel was about to kill him, Alice suddenly appeared on the battlefield with the wizards.
Fifty wizards rushed into the melee of tens of thousands of people, like a ball of fine sand sinking into the sea, but this was just an illusion, because these fifty wizards moved forward from behind and penetrated Golwuzi in an instant.
's military formation.
Reggie knew that wizards had good fighting prowess, but he was still shocked after witnessing it with his own eyes. He saw a witch who could use fire. She turned the flame in her hand into a five-foot sword and used it among the crowd.
Slashing and burning tore a path of blood, and I also saw a wizard who could use ice, freezing several soldiers into ice sculptures, and then smashing them into pieces with a war hammer.
The wizards quickly rushed to the center of the military formation. It was difficult for ordinary soldiers to pose a threat to them, and Reggie did not dare to fire easily, otherwise Goel's soldiers would be accidentally injured.
One of the wizards came to Goel. Goel, who was about to stab Narses to death, had his trachea blocked. The sudden suffocation caused his body to lose balance, and he fell under the horse in an instant. The man who rushed to rescue him
The soldiers also lost their breath one after another. Alice took the opportunity to let a witch rescue Narses. She was about to leave with Narses, but someone grabbed her robe.
It was Conrad, he was still alive. He pulled Alice's robe and said with difficulty: "Help me, help me!"
Narses, who was severely frightened, looked at Alice in horror. He didn't want to care about anything or anyone. He just wanted to leave here as soon as possible.
But Alice still picked up Conrad from the ground and ran away with him.
Only the wizard remained. He was ready to sacrifice himself to hold off the enemy, and he was ready to suffocate Goel to death.
No one could get close to him, and no one knew how to help Goel. Reggie picked up his musket and wanted to rush forward himself, but Modessa got ahead of him.
Modeza rode a war horse through the crowd. He had a special murderous aura that made everyone want to avoid him. The soldiers in the melee were unwilling to fight him, and he did not want to engage in meaningless fights with others.
.
When he was two hundred feet away from Goel, he pulled the trigger, and the bullet passed through the crowd and hit the wizard's left shoulder.
Under the severe pain, the wizard gave up his witchcraft. The soldiers around him swarmed forward and were about to kill him. However, they were stopped by Modessa.
"He has been captured alive by me," Modessa shouted, "he now belongs to our lord, and our lord likes wizards!"
The hoarse and low voice had unexpected penetration, and the originally tense melee gradually eased down. Reggie took the opportunity to call Dorothy, and used her loud voice to shout to everyone: "Narses has escaped.
Now, tell me, who are you fighting for now?"
For whom? For King Charlemagne? Or for someone else?
These are not important anymore. What is important is that if you run faster, you may still be able to survive.
The soldiers from the Benlang Kingdom escaped first, followed by the soldiers from the Lion Kingdom. Goel led the soldiers in pursuit. He had no cavalry. Although he killed hundreds of enemies, he still allowed more than 2,000 people to escape.
The speed of the carriage pulling the cannon was not much different from the speed of a person walking. By the time Reggie arrived at the intersection, the enemy had long since disappeared.
"It would be nice to prepare more cavalry," Reggie sighed, "but I'm not very good at using cavalry."
"Don't worry, most of them will not escape back to Zhilin City, because Charlemagne will not treat deserters well." Goel was silent for a while, then suddenly turned to Reggie and pulled out his long sword.
Reggie was shocked when he saw Goel kneeling on the ground.
"Lord Victor, I, Golwuzi, swear to you with the honor of a knight, I will defend your life, defend your territory, and defend your glory with my flesh and blood. I will use my
The body of flesh and blood will guard you until the blood dries up, until the body decays, until the soul is annihilated for you."
The familiar oath came to his ears again, reminding Reggie of the first battle in Shattered Snow City and the oath that Jiawen once made. This oath made Reggie's blood boil again.
He is no longer a stranger to this world, and he clearly remembers the contents of the oath.
"I will give you my bread and salt, I will give you my respect and trust, I will share my happiness and joy with you, I will share my pride and glory with you...if you are really willing
words."
A knight's oath must be responded to in the most rigorous manner, and Reggie's response seemed to have one more sentence.
What does that mean if you really want to?
Gore looked at Reggie in surprise. Reggie stepped forward to help him up and asked in a low voice: "Are you sure you are loyal to me, not Chris?"
"You have been fighting side by side with Prince Chris, haven't you..."
"One day, we will inevitably separate. Maybe that day will not be too far away."
Goel looked at Reggie in shock. He felt that what he had just done seemed a bit reckless.
But Reggie still had a relaxed smile on his face: "Don't worry, when the time comes, I will give you another chance to choose."
Goel was a little uneasy. The knight's oath was not a child's play. The scene became a little awkward, and at this time, a soldier cried out at an inappropriate time.
Reggie looked at the young soldier and asked, "Boy, what happened?"
"My bride is still waiting for me at home, and I will never see her again."
Before coming to the battlefield, most soldiers did not know that they would betray the Lion Country. As rebels, they could no longer return to their hometown. This was a fate they could not escape.
"Stop crying!" A veteran shouted from the side, "You are not the only one who betrayed your family, we are the same! The lord's wife also stayed in Drawsha City!"
Goel left his wife and children in Drawsha City in order not to arouse Charlemagne's suspicion. Tonight, his wife will take the people to escape outside the city. As for whether they can escape, it depends on them.
of luck.
Reggie's luck has always been good, but now is not the time to gamble on luck.
"Count Uzi, I hope you..."
"Please don't call me Earl again," Golwuzi shook his head, "I am just an ordinary knight under your command now."
"Okay...Knight Uzi, please take your soldiers back to Drawsha City immediately."
Goel was stunned. This sentence surprised him so much.
Why let him return to Drawsha City? Should he go back to die?
Didn't Reggie accept his surrender? Was risking everything, including tens of thousands of lives, just a farce of his own wishful thinking?
Goel felt that he had been hit and humiliated like never before. He was about to leave angrily with his soldiers, but he heard Reggie shout: "My knight, you may have misunderstood me. I want you to guard the city of Drawsha for me."
, after I capture Zhilin City, I want you to cut off Charlemagne’s retreat."
Geer was startled and said in astonishment: "You want to attack Zhilin City?"
Reggie pointed at the troops behind him: "My soldiers have brought food and are heading towards Zhilin City now. I promise you that I will definitely capture Zhilin City. Please also promise me not to let Charlemagne leave alive."
Drawing City."
Goel knelt down and said: "I promise you with my life that I will capture the false king Charlemagne alive as my first gift to you."
…
Alice led the wizards all the way to Zhilin City. Conrad couldn't stand the bumps of the horse and coughed and couldn't breathe. Alice came to Narses and whispered: "I'm worried that the chief bachelor is about to collapse."
Can’t stand it any longer.”
Narses did not dare to say more. He kept repeating one sentence: "We can't stop, we absolutely can't stop."
Alice sighed and said: "You go first, I will stay to take care of the chief bachelor."
Narses nodded hurriedly: "I will report the war situation to His Majesty, and I will rush back to pick you up immediately!"
When he said these words, Narses did not even pull up the reins. He was afraid that his horse would slow down. Alice winked at a witch, and the witch stopped with Conrad and Alice.
to the roadside.
Alice hugged Conrad under a tree, rubbed his chest tenderly, and whispered: "Can you still hold on?"
Conrad nodded and said: "I can still hold on, thank you, my good girl, I deeply apologize for everything I said before, you will get a higher title, and I will praise your achievements in front of His Majesty. You
You will become an earl or even a marquis, and you will be the eternal glory of the Windsor family!"
"Don't say that," Alice said with a gentle smile, "because these words are of no use now."
A chill ran through Conrad's body. He desperately grabbed Alice's hand and said with difficulty: "I beg you, good girl, I beg you, I have helped you, I beg you, I am still
I’ll help you, I beg you!”
"If you can kneel down and beg me, I can spare your life," Alice showed a ferocious smile, "Try it, chief maester, kneel down and beg me."
Conrad tried several times, but it was difficult for him to even sit and it was impossible to get up on his knees.
"What a pity, I gave you a chance," Alice sighed, turning to look at the witch beside her, "Lola Shatter, I don't think I've ever seen your witchcraft before."
"I'll show it to you right now." Laura stretched out her hands, then held her fists and kneaded them slowly.
At the same time, Conrad's body was convulsing violently, and his internal organs were being crushed bit by bit.
"I beg you, please..."
"Kneel down!" Alice laughed loudly, "Kneel down and beg me, and I will forgive you!"
…
Two hours later, Alice caught up with Narses, and Narses shed tears when she saw Conrad's body being carried on the horse.
"I'm sorry," Alice sighed, "the chief maester didn't come through."
"What should I do?" Narr wailed, "Your Majesty will kill me!"
