Mount & Blade: Wind of War

In the past few days, Rhodes has been very quiet and lively, personally going out as a scout to conduct reconnaissance, but in fact, there is usually nothing wrong with him.

After all, this is inland, not like the border.

"Alas!?"

At this time, Rhodes glanced around and saw a large group of farmers holding various crude weapons, gathering together and heading southwest under the leadership of a rich farmer.

Rhode's group of knights were on the road, while the farmers and civilians were in the forest. Many people saw the dark black armor cavalry and shrank aside in fear. Because of this reaction, this group moved further away from the road.

"What are you afraid of? We are here to help Master Steve. These are also noble masters. If something happens, they will only stand on our side!"

The leader of the farmers, the rich peasant, raised the manure fork in his hand and roared like this.

However, he suddenly noticed that the sun had dimmed. He turned around and saw that the cavalry team had arrived behind him at some point.

This made him startled. These people in front of him were obviously heavy armored cavalry, but they were moving at strange speeds like ghosts.

Rhodes stared at the group of farmers in front of him. He saw that they were simply dressed and holding sickles, hoes, pitchforks, wooden sticks and other inferior weapons in their hands. However, some of them also held relatively standard long weapons. Swords and spears.

Under the gaze of Rhodes, these farmers subconsciously flinched and felt fearful.

"You guys, tell us what happened here, sir?" Yannick, the adjutant of the Dark Armor Knight, rode forward and asked.

The richest farmer (he was wearing simple chain armor) actually had some courage. He first bowed his head to Rhodes and then said:

"This master, there is a rebellion of orc slaves in the Steve family castle not far ahead. I heard that master Steve has been hanged and his youngest son was skinned by those beasts. We are Steve Master Husband’s subjects, Master has always been kind to us over the years, now we can’t watch something like this happen, we have to help Master Steve!”

While talking, the rich farmer held up the manure fork in his hand. Although he was a relatively wealthy farmer, he only had enough money to buy himself a simple chain armor, so the weapons in his hands could only be obtained from nearby materials.

Even the rusty chain armor on his body may have been a family heirloom.

"In that case, let's go with you and take a look."

After Rhodes finished speaking, he could clearly feel the cavalrymen behind him, their breathing becoming hot and heavy.

Although it is not an advantage, these border cavalry are really the type who will feel uncomfortable and unhappy if they do not kill for a long time.

Now these farmers dared to kill people in a rage, and the cavalryman beside Rhodes would become anxious if he didn't kill people for too long.

However, because Rhodes has always been in control, these dark cavalry still have a strong sense of honor. The farmers they encountered before who could not live to become thieves had no interest in killing.

A group of heavily armored cavalry carrying big swords and heavy hammers went to kill poor farmers who couldn't even put on their clothes. It was too shameful.

But this time it was different, an orc who could capture a small castle, hang his master, and skin him.

It sounds like the kind of being that can be killed relatively easily.

"Tell us the location of Steve's Castle. If we take action, we should be able to save some people."

"Uh, okay sir."

After being pointed out the direction, a group of more than 20 cavalry rode and charged, pointing directly at the more conspicuous small castle not far from the village.

It seems that the situation is indeed what those farmers said, because the small castle in front of you clearly shows the traces of a battle that has just passed. The traces of blood and the first extinguishing of the flames have not yet disappeared. A man in rich clothes is hanging at the gate of the castle. old man.

It seems that this is Sir Steve.

"Since we have already killed someone, there is no need to ask any more questions. All troops, charge!"

"kill!"

There was no cover-up at all, and there was no need to cover up. The whole army charged. Although it was a bit strange for the cavalry to charge the city, when the strength gap between the two sides has actually reached a point where the qualitative change suppresses the quantitative change, many common sense and war rules no longer apply.

Kress led the way and was the first to approach the castle.

At this time, the orcs holding weapons on the city wall didn't even react, and Kress had already thrown the spear in his hand.

Clang, clang, clang, with the metal colliding and sparks sputtering, the four throwing guns penetrated deeply into the wall, and there were iron chains locked and bound at the ends of the throwing guns.

After getting relatively close to the castle, the front row of dark black armor cavalry quickly dismounted and ran up. At this moment, they had activated their own unit skill Dark Fire.

The Fire of Darkness can not only control black fire, but also amplify and improve physical functions. Although frequent use of this dark-inclined power will make people cruel and bloodthirsty, kindness to the enemy on the battlefield is kindness to oneself. of cruelty.

As long as this sword is always in Rhode's hand, a certain degree of cruelty and bloodthirsty is not actually a problem.

The cavalry abandoned their horses and ran under the city wall, grabbing iron chains and quickly climbing up. At this time, some orcs with weapons reacted. They tried to attack the climbing black armored cavalry with bows, arrows and long-handled weapons, but they were bombarded head-on. What came was a flame as dark as oil.

"Ahhhhh!"

The horrible and shrill screams came from the mouth of the half-orc who was lit like a torch, and the half-orcs who were hungover in the entire castle finally woke up.

However, this was of no use. At this time, the black armored cavalry, led by Kress, had already seized the lower wall and quickly captured and opened the city gate.

The tactical quality of both sides was too different. Although the basic physical fitness of the half-orcs was stronger than that of ordinary humans, these long-term serfs in the inland were not so strong, and their martial arts were almost non-existent.

The dark armored cavalry of the Lonely Mountain Castle had fought bloody battles with the lower-plane demons on the border. It would be a joke if they could not defeat a few slaves at this time.

Kick, kick, kick, Rhodes led the other half of the cavalry to rush in from the open city gate. The central area of ​​the small castle was quite flat and open. If the riding skills were good, it would not be a problem to repeatedly charge at short distances here.

Those half-orcs rushed out in waves, and then fell in waves. Rhode could knock down three to five orcs in one charge, and many of them were dishevelled and even drunk.

Although the courage of the more than one hundred orcs was commendable, most of them fell in the end. During the process, some orcs tried to occupy the high ground to suppress the attack with bows and arrows, but Rhode charged up alone, activated the super state, and broke through the formation of twenty people, completely ending this one-sided slaughter.
