"Creaky..."
Just when Hod was shocked by the thoughts in his mind, the wooden fort gate that was originally tightly closed suddenly made a harsh sound. This sound seemed to come from the devil of hell, which made people shudder.
Although the sound was not loud, Hod still caught it clearly from the sound of fighting.
His face turned pale in an instant, and the sweat on his forehead rolled down like a waterfall. He widened his eyes and looked at the slowly opening door in horror.
"Retreat quickly, there is an ambush!"
Hod roared without hesitation, his voice was sharp and piercing, and his voice was like thunder, resounding throughout the battlefield.
However, at this moment, whether it was the mercenaries on the fort wall or the bounty hunters below, no one cared about Hod's loud reminder. They were immersed in the battle and only wanted to kill two more bandits and earn more silver deer.
Hod was anxious. He knew that the current situation was very critical. If he did not retreat in time, the consequences would be disastrous.
"Nott, hurry up!"
He screamed and turned to run, and at the same time he did not forget to call Nott, Paul, and Jules, three senior robbers, to run with him towards the canyon entrance.
"Quick! Quick!"
Hod anxiously urged Nott and the other two. At this moment, they all had puzzled and surprised expressions on their faces. From the moment Hod turned to run, the three senior robbers found something wrong.
Although they didn't know what their leader had discovered, they had never seen their leader so panicked. Something they didn't know must have happened, which made Hod look like this.
"Lord Barnett, those on the fortress wall are not robbers!"
Looking at the tall figure behind the guards and crossbowmen in front, Hod hurriedly shouted a warning.
Knight Barnett was watching the battle. When he saw four mercenaries running towards him, he instinctively frowned and was about to scold them for leaving the battlefield without permission.
But the next second, when he heard Hod's shout, his face suddenly changed.
"What?"
Knight Barnett subconsciously looked up at the fort wall, but before he could find anything unusual, the gate of the wooden fort had already opened with a bang, and the figures that appeared at the gate immediately changed his expression.
As the gate opened, six heavy armored cavalrymen slowly appeared.
The leader in the front wore a somewhat worn heavy scale armor, a face-covering chain helmet on his head, a three-meter-long long-pole double-edged spear in his hand, and rode an armored warhorse.
Although the other five cavalrymen were dressed differently, no matter which one they rode, they all wore heavy armor, held a spear, and rode an armored warhorse.
Under the stunned gaze of Knight Barnett, the leading heavy armored cavalryman flattened the long-pole double-edged spear in his hand and slowly began to move forward.
The appearance of these heavy armored cavalrymen made the entire battlefield fall into a dead silence. They exuded a strong murderous aura, as if they came from hell.
After Barnett reacted, he stared at the scene in front of him with wide eyes in disbelief. The appearance of these heavy cavalrymen was far beyond his expectations.
"How is this possible..." he muttered to himself.
At this time, the leading heavy cavalryman had already started to urge his warhorse, and the other five heavy cavalrymen followed him and slowly increased their horse speed. They held their spears and rushed towards the mouth of the canyon with endless killing intent.
Barnett took a deep breath, regained his calm expression, then suddenly drew out his long sword and shouted loudly: "Line up! Line up! Line up!"
The guards who received the order immediately stepped forward quickly. Two light infantry squads, a total of 56 people, quickly lined up in 4 rows, with short spears pointing to the sky, and round shields on their shoulders, waiting for the impact of six heavy cavalrymen.
The guards crossbowmen also retreated at the first time. They retreated to a position more than ten steps behind the anti-cavalry line and re-lined up, and reloaded crossbows in their hands.
Hod, who was running, looked at the guards who were lined up at the entrance of the canyon, with no intention of making a gap for them to pass, and aimed the crossbow at his guards. His face turned ugly instantly.
Although he knew that the town guards were doing the right thing at the moment, he couldn't help but feel a little angry.
However, after hearing the increasingly heavy horse hoof sounds behind him, Hod gritted his teeth and gave up facing the guard formation. At the same time, he made a risky decision in his heart. He turned around and ran towards the canyon wall, and reminded the three Notts beside him:
"Nott! Stick to the wall! Stick to the wall!"
After saying that, he hurriedly ran towards the canyon wall. When he got close to the wall, he immediately stopped, turned around and leaned against the wall, holding the sword tightly with both hands, breathing heavily, and staring at the heavy armored cavalry that was getting closer and closer.
Seeing this scene, the three Notts followed suit and ran towards the wallThen, holding a shield in one hand and a sword in the other, he waited nervously for his next fate.
At this moment, the town guards also showed a rare panic on their faces. Although their weapons and equipment were far superior to those of the mercenaries, cold sweat still overflowed from their foreheads when facing the heavy armored cavalry rushing like an armored beast.
"Hold on! Don't panic!"
Seemingly seeing the guards' nervousness, Knight Barnett raised his sword and kept maintaining the morale of the guards: "There are only six of them! They can't break through us!"
"Hold on! Hold on!"
"Trample..."
"Trample..."
The sound of horse hooves became louder and louder, and the distance between the two sides became closer and closer.
At this time, the mercenaries on the top of the fort also discovered this sudden change. After repelling their respective opponents, they turned their heads and looked towards the direction of the canyon pass. When they saw six heavy armored cavalry galloping towards the town guards, they all held their breath.
Even the "robbers" stopped their actions at this moment and stared blankly at the battlefield below.
Everyone knew that the victory or defeat between them was no longer decided by them.
Hod gritted his teeth and looked at a heavy armored cavalryman rushing towards him, his eyes full of determination.
There are obstacles in front and heavy armored wolves behind.
If he wants to survive, he can only fight to the death.
Even if he recruited the 20 robbers from the system at this time and exposed his ability in front of everyone, it would not help him now.
The first-level robbers wearing tattered clothes and holding farm tools and weapons could not withstand the impact of these heavy armored cavalrymen.
These heavy armored cavalrymen with rising momentum are not like the bounty hunters they met before. They are heavily armored and cannot be broken by the farm tools and weapons in the hands of the robbers.
Ninety steps...
Eighty steps...
Seventy steps...
At this moment, Knight Barnett swung his sword and shouted, "Shoot!"
Immediately, the guards' crossbowmen pulled the triggers of their crossbows, and the crossbow arrows shot out in an instant...
"Shield!"
Seeing this, the leading heavy cavalry immediately raised the cavalry round shield in front of him, and the other cavalry also raised their shields to defend.
"Duoduo..."
"Duoduo..."
The crossbow arrows were nailed on the round shield, making a series of muffled sounds...
"Ah..."
Under the attack of the crossbow arrows, even if they defended in time, two armored war horses were hit by the crossbow arrows and fell to the ground, and the heavy armored cavalry on the horseback were also thrown off the horse.
Before the mercenaries on the fortress wall cheered for this attack, they saw a scene that shocked them...
