Chapter 89
Of course Roland could hear it, but he was not ready to respond to Viscount Whitney now. He was waiting for Viscount Whitney to give in.

Following the "advance" conveyed by the noble soldiers, the soldiers held the shield in their left hand and held the sword in the right, forming a shield wall and began to advance slowly and orderly.

The distance gap between the shields is almost indistinguishable with the naked eye!

Looking at the resolute eyes of the imperial soldiers and their neat steps, it was like a city wall pressing towards this side. The pressure made Viscount Whitnet a little breathless.

Looking at Huinet's family soldiers, the circular formation they formed was uneven and lacked any aesthetic feeling. Viscount Huinet, who had previously thought that this was considered a strong army, was deeply shocked.

It turned out that he had never really understood Roland, and his impression of them had always been that of a mercenary.

Mercenaries live a bloody life. They live by killing or being killed; this also causes the replacement of mercenaries very quickly.

Many mercenaries would quickly squander the spoils on gambling and pleasure after acquiring them.

It is precisely because of this that the sources of mercenaries are often extremely complicated and lack discipline. Most of them are composed of deserters, bandits, and farmers who cannot survive. As long as they have a weapon, they can choose to join the mercenaries.

But Roland's soldiers were not like that at all. They were even more regular than his regular army, which made him completely lose hope of winning.

He remembered the words that Duke Osborne made him reconcile with Roland. It turned out that Duke Osborne did not favor Roland, but as his vassal, he had the obligation to remind himself to avoid risks.

The imperial soldiers finally stayed within five meters of Whitnet's formation, and they could even see the hairs on each other's bodies.

Such a close distance makes most of Whitnet's soldiers very nervous, it seems that everything around them has quieted down, and he can even hear the dry sound from his throat; it seems that he will face death at any time Similarly, the blood all over the body swelled up.

Although it was still cool in May in the north, the sweat on his body ran down his spine to his waist in just a short while, making him very uncomfortable.

Viscount Whitnet knew that he had to make a decision.

However, at this moment, there was a fierce sound of horse hoofbeats. From the sound, it seemed that many cavalry were really rushing to the battlefield.

Several Huinet archers who were extremely nervous, because they drew their bows for a long time and were frightened, the arrows in their hands fell out of their hands.

Because the distance between the two sides was too close, it was like a starting gun, and Whitnet's soldiers charged without any order.

Before Viscount Whitnet came back to his senses from where the cavalry came from, he heard shouts of killing coming from around him. When he raised his eyes, he found that the two sides were already fighting together.

All this made Viscount Whinette feel incredible, so he was once again suppressed by the knights.

The good news is that he doesn't have to think about how to make a decent peace. The bad news is that he will soon be a prisoner.

Only then did the scouts dare to report: "My lord, I found hundreds of cavalry troops approaching, and they are riding in pairs."

And Roland was obviously confused, why did the two sides fight.Fortunately, another scout quickly explained the situation. It turned out that it was Viscount Whitnet who first launched the attack.

This made him even more confused. Didn't Viscount Whitnet want to talk to him just now?How could they attack again?

Roland thought of the worst-case scenario, that is, Viscount Whitnet was just stalling for time before, and those cavalry were their reinforcements, which made things troublesome.

The first thing Roland thought of was that these powerful forces should not cooperate with Viscount Whitnet to form an anti-encirclement around him.

"The rest of the soldiers, come with me, we must stop them from encircling us."

After Roland finished speaking, he was about to take the remaining dozens of soldiers, and when he was about to stop the cavalry, Fox grabbed his shoulders.

"Fox, there is no time to waste, we must stop them as soon as possible, otherwise once the siege is closed, we may lose a lot of money and be defeated."

Facing Roland's anxiety, Fox increased his strength. Although Roland could break free easily, but seeing Fox's calm face, Roland stopped.

"My lord, don't be in a hurry. If there are no accidents, the Duke of Osborne's people should have arrived. No one around here who Viscount Whitnet can hire has so many horses."

Seeing Roland's unbelieving gaze, Fox seemed to have guessed what he was thinking, and he said slowly: "Of course I will not forget the role of mercenaries, there are no wars and alien races around here, and there are so many horses Your mercenaries must be large mercenaries.

Clearly not owned here!If Viscount Whitnet can afford to invite them to come all the way to save the heirs, it won't be our turn to occupy the Evernight Forest.

Even if there were, given the preciousness of war horses, they would definitely leave them outside the Evernight Forest instead of going straight to the woods with one man and two horses as they do now. There is no such support.

Because they can't guarantee whether the horses will be damaged, and whether the horses without the care of the riders will attack their own army formation, not to mention that the forest is not suitable for riding battles.

So there is only one result, and that is the team of the Duke of Osborne. If you are right, then it must be Baron Leon. "

Roland looked at Fox with some surprise. If cavalry is not suitable for fighting in the forest, he can still think of it.But he really didn't expect to associate it with a large mercenary regiment from the number of war horses.

As for the rest, he didn't even think about it, he just listened to what Fox said.

Roland patted himself on the head regretfully. He was still not calm and thoughtful enough in doing things. He hadn't discovered these obvious flaws. It seemed that he would refer to everyone's opinions when doing things in the future. After all, one person counts his weaknesses.

Actually even Roland

After a while of delay, those cavalry were already in sight.

Looking up, as expected, the leader is Baron Leon.

Before Roland could say hello, Baron Leon shouted directly: "Everyone, stop attacking."

It's just that the soldiers who had already fallen into the battlefield obviously didn't stop if they wanted to. Only the archers on both sides stopped shooting and looked at their lord.

Viscount Whitnet was completely numb today, even if he saw Baron Leon and the flag in his hand, he was not surprised.

Looking at the soldiers who had fallen into a disadvantage on the battlefield, Viscount Whitnet gave the order to stop with relief.
