Mount and Blade: Summon five outlaws at the start

The Kingdom Army stopped a mile away from the Imperial Army, and their chaotic footsteps were still echoing in the air.

Then came the loud shouts of the few sergeants who served as officers.

Amid the shouts, the three thousand Kingdom Army soldiers began to move slowly, gradually forming a chaotic formation.

Compared with the strict and disciplined Vlandian soldiers on the opposite side, this formation was particularly glaring.

On the high ground, Hod looked down at the battlefield below. When his eyes fell on the crooked and loose formation of the Kingdom Army, a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth: "A bunch of rabble!"

Indeed, the Kingdom Army in front of him could not be compared with the Vlandian soldiers in terms of the neatness of the formation and the orderliness of the arrangement.

Their team was uneven, and some soldiers were even whispering to each other, without any discipline and dignity that a soldier should have.

Originally, facing this large number of Kingdom Army, Hood had some concerns in his heart.

After all, war is always full of variables, and no one dares to easily assert the victory or defeat.

But at this moment, after seeing the Kingdom Army's poor performance, his worries instantly disappeared. Judging from the current situation, even if he only sent a small number of shock cavalry to rush directly to the enemy camp, he might be able to easily defeat these Kingdom Army in one fell swoop.

Because from the slow and clumsy movements of the Kingdom Army when they were in formation, it can be clearly seen that this army not only lacks strict training on weekdays, but also the soldiers have no fighting spirit at all.

It has been a long time, but in the Kingdom Army's camp, there are still noisy noises from time to time, which undoubtedly exposes the chaos of their grassroots management and low morale.

At this moment, Hood suddenly sighed.

He remembered the family private soldiers he encountered when he fought with the Damon family before.

Those private soldiers trained by noble families are all battle-hardened and well-trained. The combat qualities they show are far beyond the reach of the Kingdom Army in front of them.

Perhaps, those private soldiers of noble families are the real core strength of the Kingdom of Estra.

It is a pity that these well-trained private soldiers of families encountered fierce attacks from the Kuyel people on the battlefield in the East Territory and were eventually completely wiped out, leaving no one behind.

For a moment, all kinds of complicated thoughts surged in his mind like a tide, but soon, Hood forced these scattered thoughts back.

He shook his head vigorously to refocus himself, then straightened his body and continued to closely observe the every move of the battle below with his eyes.

Time passed quietly, and as time passed, the voices from the originally noisy Kingdom Army camp gradually subsided.

At this moment, at the front of the Kingdom Army, a thousand conscripted soldiers wearing slightly old armed clothes and holding short spears slowly approached the Imperial Army on the other side.

Seeing this, Hood couldn't help but take a deep breath and narrowed his eyes slightly.

Finally, the horn of war was officially blown! ! !

"All crossbowmen, prepare to shoot!"

After noticing the Kingdom Army's actions, Orville, who was in charge of commanding the crossbowmen square, shouted loudly without hesitation.

The moment after receiving the order, both the fifty well-equipped Vlandia crossbowmen and the other one hundred and fifty Vlandia crossbowmen responded quickly. They quickly raised their crossbows and tilted them to the sky, ready to fire at the command.

At this moment, Hod, who was watching the battle from a high place, overlooked the entire battlefield and could see that the team of one thousand Kingdom soldiers was marching tens of meters towards the Imperial Army.

But in such a short distance, the formation of this team, which was originally somewhat uneven, became more and more chaotic as it continued to advance, like a group of bees without the guidance of the queen bee, surging in disorder.

"Stop!!!!!! Form the team!!!"

"Follow the command and move forward!!!"

The officers in the Kingdom Army were furious when they saw the scattered formation, but at this moment they could only order the conscripts to stop and re-form the formation.

After spending several minutes to barely adjust the formation slightly, the officers ordered the conscripts to move forward again.

After repeating several times, the Kingdom Army gradually stepped into the range of the crossbowmen.

"Shoot!!!"

Along with this roar, Orville's face, which was flushed red due to nervousness, looked a little hideous.

He widened his eyes and stared at the heavyThe newly reorganized Kingdom Army gave the order without hesitation.

There was a loud "buzz..." sound, as if thousands of bees were buzzing together, deafening.

The overwhelming crossbow arrows were like a black torrent, sweeping towards the Kingdom Army with overwhelming force.

In a flash, two hundred crossbow arrows crossed the sky, with a sharp sound of wind, and pierced into the Kingdom Army fiercely.

This sudden and fierce attack was like a nightmare that fell on those unprepared soldiers.

In an instant, screams came one after another.

Crossbow arrows easily pierced the fragile bodies of the soldiers, and blood splattered everywhere.

Those soldiers who were unfortunately hit in the vitals fell to the ground on the spot, and they were dead.

The more fortunate ones were only shot in non-fatal parts such as limbs, but they could only fall to the ground in pain, holding their injured arms or thighs and rolling and howling.

How could these conscripts, who were just simple farmers a few months ago, have ever experienced such a cruel and bloody scene?

The intense pain came like a tide, drowning them, making them live a life worse than death, and even wishing to end their lives immediately to get rid of this torture.

The screams one after another and the corpses everywhere were intertwined, like a hellish scene.

The kingdom army, which had already fallen into chaos, was even more chaotic in front of this horrific scene.

Some officers tried to command the conscripts to continue moving forward, but their shouts were soon drowned out by the miserable wails, and seemed so insignificant.

Seeing that no soldiers cared about them, the officers were desperate. They looked around and saw people running wildly everywhere, and some people were yelling and stumbling to the back.

At this moment, another "buzzing" sound came. The officers looked up at the sky in a daze, and saw dense crossbow arrows with cold light flying towards them at high speed.

"Puff..."

With the muffled sound, the figures of these officers disappeared in the chaotic crowd.

"This... is a collapse..."

Looking at the conscripts throwing down their weapons and fleeing in panic, Hood muttered to himself, with a look of disbelief on his face.

"Boss, these kingdom troops are too useless..." Nott smacked his lips and said what Hood was thinking.

"Order Ashlan to attack immediately!!!"

Seeing the defeated troops sweeping towards the kingdom troops in the rear, Hood was overjoyed.

If he didn't send cavalry to charge at this time, it would be a shame for the game he played for so long in his previous life.

If he had known that these kingdom troops were at this level, why would he have arranged a formation, just F1+F3!!!
