The knights were envious and jealous, but they still took action quickly and did not charge the enemy. They all turned around and ran away.
If they had not escaped while Aldridge and his men were being held back by the militiamen, they would have had no chance. Looking at the speed of the rangers and the accuracy of their bows and arrows, they would definitely not be able to outrun them.
Although abandoning these militiamen and running back to the territory will be scolded by people and even punished by their superiors, if they choose to turn around and launch a charge, their number of cavalry will not even be able to make a splash and they will be submerged and have a chance to survive.
Why do they want to die? They are not the kind of real knights who abide by the knight's creed. They are just speculators with knight titles.
They are no different from those war mercenaries. They are just vultures that eat dead bodies. The only thing that is superior to those war mercenaries is that they have a good family.
Most of these knights are composed of the children of nobles who failed in the struggle for power and the small nobles from lonely noble families who came to join the big nobles in an attempt to revive themselves. The nobles who participated in the most battles during the Gaoling War were also these knights. War is their best
Chance, death and chance go hand in hand.
But their escape plan obviously encountered obstacles. With several shocking roars, the tall Monian lions ran wildly from the woods on the nearby hillside. Wearing heavy armor, they moved surprisingly fast. They didn't wait.
The noble knights accelerated and blocked them.
The predatory aura of the Monian lions made the horses of the noble knights feel a little panicked. A servant who was not good at riding was even thrown off because he failed to control the horse well.
Regardless of the horrified roars of those noble knights like "What the hell is this!", the Monian lions kept charging towards them.
The lions were a little taller than the knights on their war horses. When they were about to approach, they took out a short javelin from the cylinder behind their backs and fired a volley, killing several peripheral attendants.
The leather chain armor could not stop the sharp javelin of the bearer's huge power, and was directly penetrated and carried flying for a certain distance.
There are several javelins in the cylinder behind the lions. If they all hit, it would be enough to kill all the knights and squires. But those knights also reacted very quickly. Some of them had participated in many battles when they were young and had very rich experience.
, before he had time to think about where these monsters came from and why they attacked them, the older knight shouted loudly:
"Rush over, then spread out and run away!"
The noble knights passed by the lions. The knights' weapons only left a scar on the armor, but it was not enough to damage the body behind the armor. The three arms of the lions held weapons.
However, it attacked from left and right, leaving behind several knights who passed by it. In the end, less than ten knights successfully rushed past.
Seeing the knights rushing past and continuing to run away, the lions roared and quickly turned around and chased after them. The knights pushed their horses desperately and ran very fast, but the lions were not slow either. Their four thick claws grabbed
The force of the ground is very strong, and the pace is also very long. The speed is actually slightly faster than those horses running desperately.
Such fierce running made the horses tired very quickly. The knights knew that if they squeezed the horses under them desperately, the horses would die of fatigue. But they had no choice. The physical strength and speed of those lion men were far beyond their imagination.
, biting hard behind them, and was overtaken as soon as they let go.
A knight knew he couldn't run away. He gritted his teeth and turned his horse's head, pulled out his long sword and slashed at the running lion man. But as the saying goes, two fists are hard to beat with four hands. Which arm of the lion man's shield is holding?
After blocking the knight's long sword with a slight block, the remaining three hands inserted their weapons into the knight's body.
The war horse was still running forward, but the knight was pierced by the lion man and lifted up. Then the lion man used three arms to tear open the knight who was vomiting blood. The iron armor could not do anything.
Protecting him, he was torn apart along with it.
Soon after, the lions returned to Mathias again, leaving only the broken corpses on the road. Mathias nodded with satisfaction, then spoke to Aldridge in the system and turned around.
He left with the Lion and the Black Warriors. This time, he was specially called by Aldridge. On the one hand, he was to test the Lion's combat effectiveness, and on the other hand, it was for insurance.
Matthias's main task, which is to install the Observation Eye, has not yet been completed. According to the time given to him by Ronan, he has no time to be lazy.
Aldridge's side was also finished. The militia collapsed the moment the noble knights fled. Some Aldridge who took advantage of the chaos and ran into the woods on the roadside were too lazy to chase. The rest put down their weapons and surrendered. After all,
They are not an elite force with any moral integrity to refuse to surrender. Before they took up arms, they were just farmers or ordinary citizens.
Ronan plans to recruit these surrendered troops, and those who are willing to surrender will eventually be dispersed and assigned to various heroes, who will then slowly train them.
Some people were sent to clean the battlefield, and the enemy's corpses were gathered together and burned directly. Soldiers who died on their own side took their bodies back to Fengming. Ronan built a cemetery specifically for these people. Aldridge also sent some people to clean up.
The messy scene left behind by the lions, after all, where were those corpses that were pretending to be dead? Not only would they scare passers-by, but they would also scare the flowers and plants. It would also be very polluting.
The surrendered soldiers took off their weapons and armor and were driven to Eagle Cave City by the cavalry. Before surrendering and being assigned to other troops, these prisoners could also serve as free labor.
With the occupation of Wilson Territory and Loberon, Ronan's shortage of troops was once again highlighted. Normally, these cities naturally do not need many guards, but as the war develops and escalates, a chaotic noble war may break out at any time. At that time, a large number of guards will be allocated
If soldiers defend the city, it will restrict Ronan's development and annexation.
That's why Ronan is so eager for Matthias to complete the deployment of the Observation Eye. With these cameras, Ronan can know the enemy's movements and know the enemy's movements as long as he sends people to watch them 24 hours a day.
Where to attack, use this to react in advance. In this way, the soldiers guarding the city only need to ensure that they will not be attacked quickly, because Ronan's support reaction time is definitely far longer than that of other nobles.
