Damn it, this boss really has no normal skills.
Chapter 442 Christine's Big Gamble
This is the truth, and if you really think about it, it does make sense.
But no matter what, Feng En, who was standing by, was stunned to see that the Centaur woman was not afraid at all and even looked eager to try.
...You really have to risk your life for this. No matter how high the reward is, do you have the confidence to spend the money?
But this person is rarely confused. The best wisdom in life is to see through things but not to speak them out.
As a beneficiary as well, he didn't dare ruin His Highness's good deeds and could only pretend that he knew nothing.
Only after Christine, who thought she had got a rare opportunity to improve herself, left alone did she approach the third prince.
"Your Highness..."
The third prince waved his hand.
"Feng En, you are also a veteran. How can there be no deaths in war?"
"By the way, I heard that you rejected several rewards. You must be hoping to get a big one all at once."
"Tell me, what is your goal?"
A master beats a novice, and the master's account is fully equipped with all the necessary equipment.
The third prince successfully pushed forward his breakout plan and quickly developed it to the final stage of actual combat.
As the sky grew darker, the air, which had never had a trace of warmth to begin with, began to rapidly turn into bone-chilling cold.
The scouts have just explored and found that the east side of the castle is currently the weakest point of the enemy.
And it's not just the outward defensive position. The offensive troops that just made an effort today are also resting here, which can be said to be a perfect opportunity.
Therefore, the three thousand elite cavalry promised by the third prince were now making final preparations for the war behind the city gate in this direction.
When they heard that their boss had taken on such a crazy job, the Frost Giant and his lieutenant almost went crazy.
You have to understand that even if they put aside their past friendship, their fate in this life is already tied to Christine, and they will rise and fall together.
But the military order was like a mountain and could not be changed, so they could only choose to follow it.
At worst, I can risk my life for you. What if I win?
"no!"
But Christine directly rejected their request.
Before the two of them could question, he gave an answer that left no room for doubt.
"I only agreed to lead 3,000 elite cavalry to break out, but I didn't say I would bring my own troops."
"You two, I, Kristen, have never trusted many people in my life. You are the two with the highest order among them, so their safety is in your hands!"
After that, she found Feng En in private and asked him to take care of them.
Soldiers understand soldiers best, and generals understand generals best.
Feng En, who was able to get to where he is today because Big Brother saved his life, certainly couldn't refuse.
"Don't worry, Your Excellency, I will make sure they are waiting for your triumphant return in perfect condition!"
"A triumph..."
Christine hesitated for a moment.
"Of course, I have someone else to see!"
Time waits for no one. After all, War Horse Girl is still a rough girl and she is not someone who likes to be sentimental.
After checking the life-saving items on her body, she put on her helmet with the help of Frost and came in front of her new subordinates.
As the twilight was about to fall completely into darkness, Christine raised her iconic lance and raised her voice.
"Everyone! Now is your last moment. It is estimated that the sun will completely set in three minutes. Are you ready?"
Almost instantly.
"Ready!"
Unexpected unanimity.
These 3,000 cavalrymen, who had nothing to do with Christine until noon today, did not even have a single troublemaker.
It’s not because they were trained to be loyal by the third prince, but mainly because all those who could be considered superiors among them were overthrown by Christine with her bare hands.
All members have been given a buff called "My new boss is a monster who can stand people on his fists and run horses on his arms. Turtle, if you don't listen, you might be torn apart by his hands." Naturally, they will be extremely well-behaved.
"Very good, you are worthy of being the soldier of His Royal Highness the Third Prince!"
Ironically, they were actually the elite troops Christine had always dreamed of.
But she never expected that her dream would come true in this way.
As the city gate was opened at the fastest speed, Christine turned around and pointed the spear at the darkness in the distance.
"Why fear life or death when armed with weapons?"
"Everyone, follow me!"
At this time, the dim sun had completely set, the sky was as dark as ink, and the thick clouds could even cover the bright moonlight reflected by the steel of Mechanical Moon.
But it was not dark around Ironforge, because there were still lights on in the grassland people's tents. Those were the stoves they had not yet had time to finish cooking.
Then the three thousand cavalrymen, like moths seeing the light, filed out of the city gate under the leadership of the centaurs, and then spread out like a fan, galloping towards the east of the castle.
The sound of heavy horse hooves hitting the ground was as loud as thunder, even the snow on the ground was stirred up, creating a new storm around them.
The noise was so loud and the people on the grassland were not deaf or blind, so they naturally discovered their actions immediately.
But what if they found out?
The cavalry regiment entered the charging state from the very beginning and its speed was too fast. They had no time to react before the enemy had already approached them.
In fact, the people of the grassland were quite wise in terms of defense, because even the attacking party built a wall of ice and snow on the edge of their camp as a defensive fortification.
But even on Earth, this method can only be barely effective in a relatively primitive cold weapon battlefield.
In this world of magic and wonder, it might be a little ridiculous to want to block the enemy with a wall made of solid water.
Therefore, there was no need for the cavalry to personally break open a gap. The mage regiment on the wall fired three meteor-like fire bombs down.
The high temperature and explosion instantly destroyed a three-hundred-meter-long section of the wall. Although it also filled the area with dangerous water vapor, the cavalry regiment had already deployed a group shield and rushed through without any pressure.
This time, it's like wolves entering the sheepfold and mice entering the cat's den. College students on winter break find themselves sleeping in the same room with New Year's goods.
The grassland warriors who were stationed here to rest had just fought a whole day and were exhausted. Now they were banging on their bowls and waiting for their meals.
So before he could even touch his weapon, he was knocked to the ground by the cavalrymen who came rushing over with spears at their backs.
Moreover, the Third Prince's cavalry had all fought in major battles and knew how to maximize the power of cavalry cluster attacks.
There is no need for Christine to give commands, as they can speed up and attack independently, and always maintain a cone-like formation.
It is good to use crazy suppression and pursuit to always occupy the dominant position on the battlefield, constantly disperse the enemies who try to group together, and do not give them any chance to breathe and counterattack.
But even so, there were some exceptionally brave grassland people who tried to resist, such as the tall elephant-headed man who must have been very popular in India.
But his luck was too bad. He could have met anyone else but ran into Christine who was busy clearing the way for the follow-up army.
Before the axe in his hand could even draw blood, he was stabbed by a spear.
Not only was his chest and heart shattered to pieces, but his body was thrown out like a cannonball, killing several innocent grassland warriors.
As for places further away, those grassland people who still had time to organize a resistance were bombarded by all kinds of magic.
In fact, the work of the mages is relatively easy. There are targets everywhere anyway, and they just need to cast large-scale offensive magic at those far away.
As a result, the front army was weak and the rear army was exhausted. For the grassland people who could not even clench a fist, this was simply a massacre.
They could only stand blankly by the campfire and watch the enemy harvest their comrades, and then harvest themselves.
Finally, he fell to the ground, and with his last bit of strength he watched them run off to harvest other members of the tribe.
"Haha, it's just like slaughtering a pig!"
In this situation, even the calmest knight of the kingdom could not help but cheer excitedly and enter a state of excitement that is almost insane.
Only Christine's mood became increasingly heavy as the enemy's blood was spilled.
Because she knew that this was the last bit of joy they had in this war, and what was to follow would be absolute hell and abyss.
According to the arrangement of the third prince, the nearly 20,000 troops in the city were actually divided into five parts.
The first part was led by Christine, a vanguard of more than 3,000 elite knights of the kingdom who were responsible for clearing the way and breaking the formation.
The second part is composed of more than 2,000 skilled mages, all of whom ride on war horses or chariots and are responsible for supporting the mage regiments in the front and rear.
The third part is the central army where the three princes are located. As the prince’s personal guards, they have the smallest number but the highest gold content because the remaining knights and mages are all here.
The fourth part is the infantry group led by General Feng En. In addition to the third prince's men, it also includes the garrison already in the castle, as well as Christine's thousand men currently led by Frost and his adjutant.
As for the last part, it is the death squad that the third prince offered a huge reward for. Having already received a large sum of money, they will be responsible for the most dangerous rearguard action.
Therefore, strictly speaking, this fifth group is the most unlucky group of cannon fodder in the three princes' plan, and Christine and the others are not the most unlucky ones.
——They are the second most unlucky.
Because as pioneers, their mission is to open the way.
Please note that to open a road, you don't just need to dig the road open and be done with it. You also need to keep the "escape passage" open all the time.
At the very least, they have to unite with the subsequent mage regiments to ensure that the core team of the Third Prince can escape.
Considering that Christine's own family assets are actually in that fourth part, she may have to hold on for even longer.
Therefore, after completely breaking through the grassland people's camp, looking at the boundless darkness before her, Christine did not escape into it.
Instead, he gave loud orders and led the cavalry behind him to turn around like a giant boomerang.
But since the grassland people grew up on the grassland, they naturally have their own highly mobile troops.
The Deep Foresters have been making a fuss in their base camp for so long, it's time for them to come out.
Then another round of "drum roar" gradually sounded on the battlefield. Funny enough, the people who came turned out to be Christine's "relatives".
That's right, those are thousands of galloping Centaurs!
Although they are not as big as Christine, their muscle mass is definitely as strong as that of ancient Greek statues.
Moreover, the goal of this elite Centaur army is very clear, which is to transform into a sharp knife and stab into the mage group that rushed out with them.
But how could Christine let them have their way?
"The enemy is coming, speed up, follow me and charge!"
She directly imitated her opponent's tactics, turning three thousand elite cavalry into another faster sword, intending to stab them.
Although they are also cavalry, this group of elite knights directly under the royal family possesses the most advanced battle magic and forging technology.
If there is a head-on confrontation and close combat, the Centaurs will definitely not be their match. This is the bloody lesson learned by the grassland people.
"Damn it, everyone follow me and keep some distance from them!"
So the leader of the Centaurs immediately led the tribesmen behind him to turn around and maneuver quickly in the opposite direction of the camp.
This is actually an open conspiracy, because if the enemy cavalry gives up chasing and killing, they can enter their most comfortable circle formation horse shooting rhythm, and frantically take the enemy's lives for free while kite flying.
And if the enemy cavalry insists on chasing and killing them, it doesn't matter. They will rely on their long arms and legs to hold the dog back and see if the enemy's mage, who has lost his protection, can withstand the counterattack of the grassland people!
However, this group of poor people still underestimated the value of the "Kingdom Knights" and "Prince's Guards" and harbored illusions that they were just ordinary Deep Forest Knights.
Therefore, when a dangerous dark red light lit up in the darkness, like a bloodthirsty blade slashing towards them, they even looked at each other in amusement.
By the time the leader with a red horn on his helmet reacted and wanted to remind his people to wake up and prepare for war, it was already too late.
The mountain-like Centaur on the opposite side suddenly rushed up to him, raised the lance in his hand, and smashed it with brute force without any skill at all.
But since he was recognized by warriors from several Centaur tribes at the same time, this leader must be quite capable.
So this blow did not smash him into a pulp on the spot. Instead, it made him struggle hard, raise the spear in his hand, stagger, and barely catch it.
But his subordinates were not so lucky. When the two armies confronted each other, the close combat capability of the elite knights of the kingdom was nightmare-level.
Since it is impossible for everyone to wear armor with the forging power of the grassland, the centaurs, who are flesh and blood after all, can only shed blood.
As for how the Kingdom Knights managed to accelerate so suddenly...
Even the useless Earl in the southern part of Glow can pull out an armored cavalry that can provide a group shield.
The people of Shenlin, whose military history is even longer than national history, have naturally made great use of this thing a long time ago.
Isn't it just a collective war charge? No big deal. As the world's top military force, the Kingdom Knights know many more tough things!
