Chapter five hundred and ninety-six: cavalry charge!
In front of him was a small room. As the militiamen opened the door, Kroni's upside-down figure appeared in front of Qin Feng.
"Sir, I finally see you." Croni turned over with a smile on his face.
"I'm very happy too." Qin Feng said with a smile: "You will go out with me tonight. We need a hearty battle."
"Tonight? Night attack? We can't win...the opponent has more than 3,000 people..." Croni walked out of the hut where he had stayed for several days.
Songdan City.
The sunlight spread across the entire study room. A waitress turned around a thick bookshelf, came straight to Diablo, and placed a piece of information in front of him.
"10,000 gold coins? What a generous sum... Well, I have already arrived in the mist town and entered the mist forest... and became the leader there..." Diablo looked at the information and praised: "You are really capable, even with the territory
You have prepared everything for yourself, Francis boy."
"However, the territory is not so easy to get... Count Kanu actually led 3,000 private soldiers to conquer..." Diablo put down the information in his hand and raised the corner of his mouth, "It's really exciting..."
In a forest to the north of the foggy town, there is a simple walled city filled with warriors with weapons.
Outside the walled city, Binder arrived at the gate after a long journey, and then slapped the gate hard, "Is anyone there? Open the door."
The door opened, and the sturdy Steppenwolf King Erd walked out with his shield and sword, "Hey, why are you so anxious to find me? Binder..."
"What? You want us to help you, 10,000 gold coins?"
After some explanation, Erd was surprised that the other party actually had so much money, "Did that nobleman fall into your hands?"
"Well, he is our leader now, and maybe he will be our real lord in the future."
Binder brought the topic back again, "If we win, we will give you 10,000 gold coins, and the spoils can also be divided equally."
"Oh, your 1,000 militiamen, plus my 1,000 bandits, and the other party has 3,000 people, which is 1,000 more than us, so we may not be able to win..."
When Binder thought that Oed would not join, Oed suddenly changed his words, "However, if your foggy town is attacked, then we will be the next target.
When will we take action?”
In Count Canu's camp.
On a flat ground, the middle-aged and thin Earl Kanu was lying on a gorgeous lounge chair, and there was another person lying beside him.
This person is wearing a gorgeous cloak with various flame-shaped graffiti on it.
"Master Mino, how long do you think the other side can hold on? One day? Two days? Or should we launch an attack now and defeat them all?" Kanu took a glass of honey water from the soldier and took a satisfied sip.
.
"Your people are very tired just coming here. If we attack the city, I will probably die a lot, and you will have to pay a lot of pensions." Master Mino is very young and has the arrogance of a young man.
"You really don't need me to do anything? A blast of fire bombs can shatter that city gate." Mino also raised a glass of honey water.
"But one of your explosive bombs is too expensive. I think it is still cost-effective even if 200 soldiers die." Count Kanu directly objected.
"Tch, stingy nobleman."
As a mage who came out of the Tower of Miracles, it was the first time for Mino to participate in such a large-scale battle. For him, everything was so strange.
Moreover, Count Kanu had promised him to give him a gold coin for every time he cast a spell, but now, Count Kanu had no intention of letting him take action.
"In that case, let's enjoy the war in the lower world." Mino took a comfortable position and watched the boring war.
The ballistas fired continuously, and huge arrows streaked across the sky, penetrating the city wall from time to time, and shooting through the militiamen behind the city wall.
At this time, a soldier ran over and came to Earl Kanu to report, "Your Majesty, we found a cavalry coming out of the foggy town. Please give your instructions, should we pursue it or not?"
"Cavalry?" Count Kanu had no intention of doing anything, and said casually: "Chase, send all the cavalry, and the knights, and kill all the escaping cavalry. I want to see their heads tonight..."
"Yes, Lord Earl." The soldier retreated.
A 300-man cavalry force rushed out from the camp and swaggered around the foggy town where no one could see the figures on the city walls.
In the distance, a cavalry team waited quietly.
"How about we stay still like this? They will rush over soon..." Kroni next to Qin Feng was a little nervous.
The cavalry in the distance had already discovered them, so they rushed towards them at top speed with their lances drawn, as if they wanted to knock them all down in one round.
The distance between the two is getting closer and closer, 400 meters... 300 meters... 100 meters...
"Aren't we going to take action yet? They are about to hit our team." Kroni was even more nervous. He was in the front row of the team. If he was hit, he might be among the fastest to die.
"No rush..." Qin Feng remained unhurried.
When the distance between the opponent and the opponent was almost the same, Qin Feng immediately ordered: "Pull back..."
All the generals and guards drove their horses backwards, and a rope appeared in their hands at some point.
The rope was stretched straight. In front of Qin Feng, the soil was turned over, and rows of wooden stakes were pulled out, tilted at a 45-degree angle, with all the sharp parts pointed in the direction of the cavalry's charge.
The cavalrymen were immediately horrified, but their speed was at its highest peak at this time and they could not slow down immediately.
"ah……"
Unsurprisingly, both men and horses collided with each other and were pierced by sharp wooden stakes. The cavalrymen at the back collided with the front row again, causing them to fall on their backs.
Kroni was dumbfounded, "Sir... this is a trap... when did you do it?"
"I asked those militiamen to do it a long time ago. What's the fuss... After all, it's a war now..." Qin Feng said matter-of-factly.
"Really?" Kroni sweated coldly. He didn't tell Count Kanu such important information, causing him to lose so many cavalry. He didn't know if Count Kanu would be angry.
The tragedy of the Earl's cavalry was not over yet. The generals and guards began to shoot at close range, and a continuous rain of arrows flew over.
The immobile cavalrymen suddenly became living targets, and rows of them fell down after being hit by arrows.
"Retreat quickly... retreat quickly..." The leader of the knights saw that the troops suffered heavy losses and that if this situation continued, the entire army would soon be annihilated, so he could only order a retreat.
"They are just a bunch of cowards using traps and bows and arrows. If we get close to them, they will be chopped to pieces by us."
Some knights held the opposite opinion and took action. They led some of the cavalry around the wooden stakes and rushed towards Qin Feng and others from the flanks.
"There are only a few dozen people who want to attack us. This is looking down on me..."
Qin Feng immediately sent out 30 people to greet him, and asked the remaining people to continue shooting where they were.
