Chapter 135: Fighting Knights and Heavy Soldiers
Roman pulled one end of the rope, and the rope was full of people.
He didn't have time to count how many people were tied to the rope.
The sharp axes and blades forced everyone to move forward.
These people were tied with their hands and staggered forward out of fear.
But Roman believed that they would understand the value of this rope in the future.
At that time, even if they were untied, they would follow his footsteps from the bottom of their hearts.
Not now, he didn't have time to explain, and there was no need to explain.
Plunder is plunder.
Those who resist will be executed immediately!
Those who break free will be executed immediately!
Jet has always been ruthless in doing things. He ordered his men to chop off the heads of those in charge and hang them on the spears of those lightly armed soldiers as a deterrent.
Those bloodstained heads, pale faces full of terrified expressions, were frozen at the moment before death.
And the villagers with their hands and feet tied still remembered the expressions and postures of those faces when they were showing off in the village.
Now only their heads were floating in the air, following them, staring at them with their eyes wide open.
Jet's approach was very effective.
Even the bravest villagers lost their will to resist.
Everyone realized that this group of crazy executioners! Their brutality was no less than that of the barbarians in the east and the pirates in the Arctic!
The effect was very successful, but Roman frowned.
There was no way to speed up the march with such a group of staggering burdens.
From morning to noon, they had only advanced more than ten kilometers, looted two small villages along the way, and passed a knight's territory. The knights in the manor saw that the situation was not good and immediately rode away on horseback, escaping the disaster.
At this time, they also came to the second village planned on the map, which was called Witte Village.
Only dozens of soldiers were left to guard the slaves, and the rest repeated the approach of Doug Village.
Some people reacted and escaped, but most people became lambs to be slaughtered.
Soon, dozens of lightly armed soldiers had bloody heads on their spears and axes.
The marching speed was not as expected, so Roman had to divide his troops.
He ordered Aaron to lead 200 lightly armed soldiers to capture the third village called Puton Village in advance as a place to stay tonight.
It was at this time.
The vassals of Count Kant finally reacted.
The huge convoy was too conspicuous, and even passed through the borders of some knights.
When the escaped knight told his colleagues about this, they were confused.
Army?
Where did the army come from in the remote countryside?
Soon, the farmers who escaped from Egg Village and Witte Village also sent out information.
Those knights or barons were unbelievable at first, and after sending messengers to Doug Village to investigate the situation, they learned that the village was empty and the villagers were most likely looted, and then the tragedy of Witte Village was also reported.
"Where did the looters come from?!"
Everyone was going crazy!
This is outrageous!
The gods have descended from the sky!
Rather than saying it was an army, they would rather believe that it was a mountain ghost, a monster from the Cangyue Mountains that invaded the Black Iron Land.
"Where is Baron Haas? Why can't I see Baron Haas!"
They sent another messenger to Baron Haas's castle to check the situation.
It takes time for the messenger to go back and forth, and they can't just sit back and watch, and they are shocked and angry at this moment!
"Stop them!!"
After reaching a consensus, the knights of several knights gathered together, hurriedly pulled up their knight attendants, and hastily formed a cavalry unit of nearly 30 people.
That afternoon, this cavalry attacked Roman's convoy.
Because they didn't have time to identify his identity, Roman was regarded by them as a barbarian pirate-what noble would attack another noble territory in order to plunder the population.
But this is no longer an ordinary bandit!
We must strike hard!
We must teach this gang of robbers a lesson!
The knights who had not fought for many years were filled with righteous indignation.
Use absolute force to tell the bandits that they are in the wrong place! Kant Territory is not a place where they can run wild!
The scouts sent out by Roman passed the information through the whistle. When those shadowy figures appeared on the hillside in the distance, 100 lightly armed soldiers had already taken out longbows and arrows from the baggage carts and transformed into longbowmen.
"Archers! Prepare to shoot!"
When they rushed to the range of 200 meters, 100 longbowmen shot arrows at the same time under Dick's command.
The arrows traveled 60 to 70 meters per second and it took three seconds to fly over. The cavalry ran at 6 to 7 meters per second, just enough to hit the projectiles head-on.
Dick made a prediction and carried out the first round of projectile attacks.
However, the effect was very bad. There were not many archers and too few targets to complete the coverage. Moreover, because the range was too far, most of them shot into the ground.
One of the riders was hit by an arrow and fell to the ground. The chain mail he had temporarily equipped could not resist the piercing force of the arrow, causing the cavalry to slow down slightly.
The thin rain of arrows that fell from the sky frightened them.
But encouraged by the knights in battle, no one retreated.
Eight seconds later, the longbowmen re-strung their bows and arrows according to the training requirements and were ready to shoot. When the two were 80 meters apart, Dick waved his hand again.
"Release the arrows!!"
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
The second round of shooting caused more damage than the first round.
A total of three cavalrymen were killed, two of whom were hit by arrows and slid to their knees with their front legs, throwing the riders off.
Just as they were busy with the third round of shooting.
Jet, wearing a steel mask, shouted: "Arm your troops in formation!!"
The enemy had six fully armored knights, and their horses were also covered with horse armor.
They did not retreat in the face of the rain of arrows, but instead kept accelerating.
If they were not stopped, the powerful impact would be enough to cut the entire team in half.
And the subsequent riders would cut the team into several sections.
All the heavily armored warriors rushed up at the same time.
Since the scouts noticed the enemy approaching, they took the heavy shields from the car to facilitate the battle.
"Arm your troops in formation! Keep them down!"
They ran ten meters away, and at Jet's command, they all smashed the big shields heavily to the ground, with the shields tilted backwards to a certain extent, and the angle between them and the ground was 70 degrees.
The heavy shield was specially made, with a wide front, tilted back on both sides, and grooves on the back, which could be inserted with two legs.
The leg brace is made of the trunk of a dwarf chestnut tree. It is very hard, the wood is heavy, strong and impact-resistant.
Even if there is no need for human support, the shield can stand up with the leg brace.
The heavily armed soldier inserted the leg brace behind the heavy shield, hiding his whole body behind the huge shield.
Everyone lowered their heads, without vision, and didn't know who the cavalry would hit.
They could only feel the trembling of the ground, the sound of galloping getting closer and closer, and the huge force seemed to be coming towards them.
But at this moment, all the heavily armed soldiers gritted their teeth silently, their feet seemed to be embedded in the soil, the thick and solid shield could not give them a full sense of security, they could only do their best to resist the impact that might arrive.
What was even more panicked was the knights!
For the knights, this distance of 100 meters only took seven or eight seconds.
Just when they rushed to about 30 meters, the shield wall quickly took shape.
A 100-meter-long and 1-meter-high iron wall was arc-shaped, blocking in front, and it was two layers!
Nima!
This kind of combat quality and organization must have been highly trained. Even the most elite pirate barbarians would not have this awareness.
The expedition knights realized this problem instantly, and their eyes bulged!
It is difficult to see things clearly at a distance of 100 meters. The normal vision of a person is only 30 to 50 meters. Beyond this range, at most they can distinguish whether it is a person or a dog.
Of course, they can vaguely observe that the soldiers are carrying something big.
When the distance from the enemy is 80 meters, the knights will charge at full speed. This is the consensus.
There is no room for slowing down when they are close.
I have no choice but to bite the bullet and pray to the gods that this seemingly solid defense array is just a show.
On the bright side, the enemy's defense is only two thin layers of heavy armor.
As long as the pioneer knights can make a hole, the follow-up cavalry can file in.
...
At this time, the army led by Aaron and Green fought with the conscripts of the third village.
