Warlord: King of All Clans

Chapter 348 Welcome to the King

Apart from a bunch of civilians under the city wall and the miscellaneous soldiers who were not among the first to climb the city wall, not many people paid attention to the Hewan Infantry's change of uniforms.

Except for those who are on regular guard duty, the other soldiers guarding the city do not wear armor on a daily basis and are now changing their clothes urgently. The only difference between the River Bend Infantry and them is that they do not have their own barracks.

The civilians and soldiers watched as teams of elite Hewan infantry walked up the steps to the city wall, and they made way for fear of hindering the actions of these powerful soldiers.

They are so well-trained and calm, they must be the elite of the Lord's Mansion!

The soldiers felt very safe, and the tension of the impending war suddenly disappeared.

Hans, the captain of the East Gate City Guard, and his colleague, the captain of the West Gate City Guard, did not notice Leo's initial change of clothes. Their eyes were still on outside the city.

The flag of the Petukhov Corps slowly appeared outside the city wall.

The west gate of Isenpor had been closed for a long time, but the nearby houses and sheds had not yet been demolished. A large number of people were blocked outside the gate and hurriedly ran to both sides.

The battles between local banners are different from foreign invasions. Although small-scale looting occurs from time to time, both sides are local tyrants, so at least there will be no large-scale massacres.

In fact, the small square flag legion had no siege capability at all, and at best it could only attack the knight lord's small earthen fort.

No one believed that the Petukhov Corps, which had less than half of its full strength, would dare to go to Isenpol and cause trouble.

The soldiers defending the city did not feel too much pressure, and they did not even demolish the houses outside the city that blocked the view. The residents stranded outside the city were not too frightened.

There are armed fights every year in the countryside of the North. Everyone loves to fight. Whenever there is a war, the surrounding villagers will form groups to watch the battlefield to see if there are any bargains to be picked up.

Any broken knife or sword you pick up can become a good kitchen knife that can be used for ten or eight years.

They fled in a hurry only because of the vigilance caused by the daily robberies. They also wanted to prevent the soldiers from conscripting them into the legion to do menial work, so they took their families and hid away.

Hans stood on the city wall, watching Petukhov's army approaching, estimated the number of people, and became extremely confused.

He and his colleagues looked at each other in bewilderment, "Where's Lord Flynn? Where's the Adonis family? Where did the three thousand people go?"

The number of people in the Petukhov Corps before them exceeded the originally estimated 2,000, and the armor coverage rate was further improved.

The Adonis Legion consists of 3,000 men, gathering the elite forces of the city of Isenbol. It also includes the armored knights supported by the Lord's Mansion, with a mid-level knight commander in charge.

It was not a difficult task to stop the attack of the 2,000-man Petukhov Corps.

Even if I really lose, the opponent should be half disabled.

If the two sides had not collided, they should have returned to provide assistance early, as Isenpol was not far from the ancestral home of the Adonis family.

To be honest, the city guards of Isenpol did not take the rebellion of the Petukhov family seriously at all, but this was based on the powerful military force of the lord's mansion and the presence of the Adonis square flag.

Now the main force is out on the expedition and there is no news. There are only less than a thousand soldiers left on the city walls to defend the city, less than half of them are wearing armor, and 50% are militia.

If a real fight breaks out, it will be a bloody battle.

"Where is the Earl? Why hasn't he come yet?"

Hans was very annoyed, but he couldn't complain about his lord in front of his colleagues. He could only order his personal soldiers to go to the lord's mansion to urge him, while he waited patiently.

At this time, teams of Hewan infantrymen had changed their equipment, skillfully climbed up the city walls, and took up their battle positions.

Leo strode up to the city wall with ten Wind Knights.

Hans and several other city guarding officers on the city wall saw a strange team appear and were about to shout loudly, but when they saw the scarlet armed forces, they were suddenly speechless.

The Scarlet Armor is the exclusive equipment of the Wind Knight and is also the most famous armor of the Northern Army.

They had never seen the Scarlet Arms, but at least they had heard of its legend.

Scarlet weapons and dragon-scale horses are to the Knights of the North what World War II tanks were to World War II infantry.

Especially since Leo wore it in Isenbol and paraded around, the knights of Isenbol had already spread the news.

After just a moment of distraction, ten Wind Knights had already occupied the entrance and exit of the tower, blocking the officers guarding the city in the tower.

Several people gripped the hilts of their swords and confronted Leo.

After a few breaths, they looked at each other, then loosened their sword handles and lowered their heads.

They were just a few low-ranking officers, and they didn't even have a corner flag knight, let alone an extraordinary knight.

Facing eleven fully-armed Wind Knights, they didn't even have the ability to resist.

Leo walked through several people, put his hands on the railing, looked at the army slowly approaching from a distance, and said happily: "Ah, the Petukhov Army, so mighty and majestic!"

He said to the soldiers guarding the city behind him, "It's our friendly army! Open the city gates quickly! Welcome the royal army!"

The few soldiers serving the officers were still in the dark and were a little bit incredulous when they heard the order.

But the smart soldiers had already noticed something was wrong, so they looked at their superiors for advice.

Hans waved his hand in frustration, "Open the gate."

He was standing behind Leo, ready to attack and hurt anyone at any time.

But the opponent's scarlet weapons made him give up this idea.

Hans, who was originally tall and sturdy, looked much more muscular than Leo, but after the other party put on the scarlet armor, their body shapes became very similar.

If we compare the momentum, Hans, who was wearing chain mail, was completely crushed by Leo, who was wearing scarlet plate armor.

How can an ordinary sword or knife penetrate a half-centimeter thick steel plate? Even if a superhuman comes, he will be defeated!

He had already guessed the other party's identity, but he couldn't figure out how the other party had brought such conspicuous armor into the city.

As an experienced city defense officer, Hans was well aware of the situation of the floating population in the city. Even if he missed three or two sets of privately hidden armor, he could not have missed eleven sets of scarlet armor weighing several hundred kilograms.

His eyes turned to the teams of River Bay infantry on the city wall.

These elite veterans were far from being comparable to Isenbol's city defense team who were paid for military pay. They took up the combat posts on the city walls with decisive actions, and their strong style made them dare not speak out.

Some city defense team leaders even stepped forward to argue, but were immediately disarmed by the Hewan infantry.

Even if eleven sets of scarlet armor weighing several hundred kilograms were missed, it is impossible to miss hundreds of sets of full body armor!

Looking at the Petukhov family army entering the city one after another, and then looking at Leo Mondo who has become famous in recent times, Hans suddenly felt relieved.

He lowered his eyes and looked at the chain mail that had become a mere show after many repairs.

That’s good, at least we don’t have to fight, and we save a lot of money on repairs!
