The Rhapsody of Mounted Blade Players

And because the cavalry troops were destroyed so quickly, it was only then that the infantry and crossbowmen of the Kingdom of Swadia who were still there to besiege Baron Sol finally realized what had just happened.

Count Michod, who was responsible for commanding the infantry and crossbowmen, was caught in a dilemma for a while. If he led his troops to retreat now, without the cover of the cavalry, it would be easy for the enemy to overtake him with the potential to win. , then the retreat may turn into a rout.

And if they continue to stay, sooner or later they will be surrounded and annihilated by this enemy force that comes for reinforcements.

After thinking for a while, Michaud felt that his only chance of survival now was to seize the time to attack the small slope, seize Baron Saul and force the enemy to retreat.

After all, that army was fighting the family flag of Baron Saul, and it should also be Baron Saul's men. The other party should have launched the attack forcefully regardless of Baron Saul's life.

After figuring this out, Michaud immediately led his troops and launched an attack on the remaining soldiers of Baron Saul who were trapped on the small slope.

However, Baron Saul also knew at this time that he could be saved if he persisted for a while, so when he saw the enemy attacking, he immediately led more than fifty of his remaining soldiers to resist vigorously.

I saw a Swadia sergeant holding a two-handed sword and leading a small group of soldiers to rush up the slope first. He had already received Michod's instructions in advance, and his eyes were fixed on the burly figure above, holding a sword. The figure holding a big axe, as long as they can catch it, then they can all be saved.

Unfortunately, before they could launch an attack, the enemy army on the opposite side threw a large wave of javelins and throwing axes at them. The Swadia sergeant who led the charge quickly waved the sword in his hand vigorously, and blocked the enemies flying towards him. Several javelins and throwing axes were knocked away.

Other soldiers who were not as skilled as him were not so lucky, and seven or eight of them were knocked down amidst a series of screams.

Fortunately, they also had long-range troops. More than two hundred Swadian marksmen equipped with heavy crossbows also launched a volley at the enemy troops on the slope from the rear.

A dense rain of crossbow bolts arrived. Upon seeing this, Baron Saul and the others hurriedly raised their shields to defend themselves. Under the massive crossbow bolts, the shields in the hands of many soldiers were exploded.

Fortunately, most of the remaining soldiers around Baron Sol are equipped with inferior versions of the Iron Buddha heavy armor that Ye Tianlong sold to him. Some of them even took off the armor of their fallen comrades to achieve double or even triple layers of heavy armor. The level of armor, so although the crossbow bolts fired by those heavy crossbows are not weak in lethality, if they are shot on them, they will only cause some minor injuries at most, and they cannot be shot directly at all.

After waiting for the crossbow bolts to fall, Baron Saul dropped the shield that was already filled with crossbow bolts, and then took the lead and took the initiative to charge towards the enemy infantry not far away with the Xuanhua ax in his hand.

Baron Saul was not seeking death, but wanted to take advantage of the time when the enemy crossbowmen were reloading their crossbow bolts to rush in front of the enemy infantry and engage in hand-to-hand combat with them.

In this way, after the two sides fought together, even if the enemy's crossbowmen reloaded their crossbow arrows, they did not dare to shoot for a while because they were afraid of accidentally injuring their own soldiers.

Baron Sol, who was more than two meters tall, was like a little giant. He rushed in front of the Swadia sergeant in a few steps. After avoiding the opponent's two-handed sword, he actually caught him. Then he lifted the enemy soldier, who was about [-] meters tall and strong, into the air. He grabbed the opponent's neck with his right hand and pulled the Swadia soldier's neck hard. The bones were crushed hard.

Then Baron Saul roared and used his body as a weapon to hit the enemy infantry on the opposite side.

When several Swadian infantrymen wearing chainmail and holding spears saw their commander's body coming towards them, they immediately subconsciously lowered the spear tips in their hands to avoid being pierced by the sharp spears. The body of one’s own parents.

But this caused them to be hit by their commander's body and fall to the ground. Their weapons were also tightly suppressed by the corpse of the commander wearing sleeveless plate armor, and they were unable to defend or fight back for a while. .

Baron Sol took the opportunity to rush in front of them, and swiped the Xuanhua ax in his hand. The heads of these Swadian infantrymen were immediately chopped off.

Inspired by Baron Saul's example, other soldiers who also knew that they could be saved as long as they persisted for a while also howled like tigers down the mountain and killed them from the slope, quickly entangled with the enemy, and began to fight. An extremely fierce white-blade formation.

On the other side, Ye Tianlong saw that the remaining infantry and crossbowmen of the Kingdom of Swadia launched an attack on Baron Saul so quickly, and he hurriedly urged his soldiers to rush to the rescue.

It's a pity that most of the soldiers under his command are infantry. As for the cavalry, there are only a dozen personal guards under his command and those players who have already practiced their riding skills well. The total is less than thirty cavalry!

Although there were not many cavalry, in order to relieve some pressure on Baron Saul, Ye Tianlong immediately led more than [-] cavalry under his command and rushed towards the small slope at full speed.

When the distance between the two sides was still several hundred meters away, his master Li Rufeng took out the strong bow that Murong Jie specially customized for her after she became an innate master, and aimed the bow and arrow at the person in the distance who looked like A middle-aged man who is the enemy commander.

After taking a brief aim, Li Rufeng shot this armor-piercing heavy arrow that blessed her with a lot of innate energy.

The arrow shot by Li Rufeng, whose strength had already exceeded [-], flew as fast as lightning. The air along the way was easily torn apart by the arrow, causing it to emit bursts of terrifying noises during its flight. Sonic boom. It didn't look like an arrow, but rather like a small-caliber shell fired from an electromagnetic gun.

Michaud immediately felt something bad when he heard the terrifying sonic boom. He immediately grabbed a soldier next to him and pulled him in front of him as a shield.

However, this failed to save his life. The Svadia sergeant, who was wearing thick sleeveless plate armor, was hit by the armor-piercing heavy arrows that shot towards his chest. Bloody holes from front to back.

Then the armor-piercing heavy arrow, whose power was weakened, continued to move forward, hitting Michod's chest, and also penetrated his chest with a bloody hole the size of a fist.

"How is it possible...!" After feeling the severe pain, Michaud looked down at the huge bloody hole in his chest. He slowly fell down with an expression of disbelief and surprise on his face, and was followed closely. The body of the fallen Sergeant Swadia was pressed hard and he died completely.

Ye Tianlong was also shocked to see his master kill the enemy commander with one arrow from such a distance.

Seemingly sensing Ye Tianlong's surprise, Li Rufeng also specially explained to her apprentice that not all innate warriors who had just broken through to the innate realm could be as strong as her.

This is because she has been trapped for many years in the late stage of transforming energy, and has already accumulated enough. Therefore, after breaking through to the innate realm, the quantity and quality of the innate true energy in her body are beyond what ordinary warriors can compare with. Than. The second reason is that after all, she is considered a genius warrior with heaven-level qualifications. She practices the heaven-level technique "Wanxiang Jue" and can switch the technique at any time according to different combat needs, so she can be separated by hundreds of meters. He successfully sniped the enemy commander of Naswadia to death with one arrow.

While Li Rufeng was explaining to Ye Tianlong, the enemy army on the opposite side fell into chaos because of the sudden death of their commander Count Michod. Those Swadi who were fighting fiercely with Baron Saul and the others Because the sub-infantry failed to receive friendly support from the rear in time, they were even beaten back by Baron Saul and the others, looking like they were about to be completely defeated.

After Ye Tianlong saw this situation, he immediately saw the opportunity. He immediately increased his horse speed to the highest speed, and led his more than [-] cavalry to quickly approach the Swadia soldiers who surrounded the small slope.

When the two sides were still more than fifty meters apart, Ye Tianlong and others fired arrows one after another, throwing a sparse rain of arrows at the enemy.

Although the rain of arrows shot by Ye Tianlong and others is a bit sparse, the lethality is not low. After all, most of them have already upgraded their strong bow skills to more than seven points, coupled with the use of riding bows made with various modern materials and techniques. And arrows, as long as they hit, they will be seriously injured or even kill an enemy instantly.

The crossbow bolts fired by the enemy's crossbowmen hit the green python armors of Ye Tianlong and others who were rushing at the front. They could only splash a few sparks before being bounced away. They had no effect on Ye Tianlong and the others at all. Kill.

Faced with this situation, the crossbowmen who were not strong in melee combat abilities immediately panicked and shouted for their own infantry to come back to protect them.

But the infantrymen were also in a panic at this time! After all, as soldiers of the Kingdom of Swadia, they naturally knew the terrifying power of heavy cavalry charging at full speed. So at this time, facing the charge of Ye Tianlong and his heavy cavalry who were armed to the teeth, they really didn't want to be the first wave of cannon fodder to die!

Seeing the infantrymen still dawdling there, some Swadia officers with knighthoods shouted harshly, and even pushed the infantrymen forward with spears in hand, preparing to resist the impact of the enemy cavalry. .

But just as the enemy infantry came to the front of the formation cautiously one by one and reluctantly set up a twisting gun formation, Ye Tianlong and the others violently divided into two groups in front of the enemy's formation, and started from the enemy's main line. Both sides of the formation were bypassed, and when passing by the enemy, they did not forget to shoot arrows at the enemy infantry, killing and injuring the enemy's effective forces.

The reason why Ye Tianlong chose to give up charging at the last moment was because the enemy had not completely lost their will to fight. If the opponent was really frightened just now and failed to set up a gun formation in time, he would naturally not mind taking his men with him. The cavalry charged forward.

But since the enemy had set up a spear formation in time, he naturally would not take the only cavalry under his command to rush into the spear formation and die. After all, his purpose of coming here this time was just to reduce the defensive pressure on Baron Sol. Now that he has attracted so many enemies, his purpose has been achieved, and there is no need to rush to fight with the enemy.
