The Black Knight from the Blue Planet

Three kilometers south of the royal city of Boris.

Inside the Blade Knights' station, Hardy looked at the grieving Victor and said, "Now is not the time to be sad. The enemy is outside and the Knights need your command."

Hardy had already discovered when he came in that the morale of the Knights was astonishingly low.

This is not surprising either.

Dora was assassinated, and no one knew how many people saw his injured appearance.

He is the de facto commander of the Knights.

The commander's life or death is unknown, so it's no wonder that the morale of the army is not collapsing. They have no intention of escaping and are already very elite.

As for the infantry regiment, there were even more casualties.

Every time those seriously injured soldiers placed in the center of the school grounds let out a low wailing sound, the surrounding soldiers would feel a little confused.

Morale continued to decline at a subtle rate.

Now we need to immediately regroup the morale of the army. Victor is also injured, but it is not serious. If he wants to command, there will be no problem.

But he looked at Hardy awkwardly and then lowered his head.

Hardy's face was full of doubts and he couldn't help but ask: "Your Excellency Victor, why haven't you taken action yet? Now is the time when we need to race against time."

"I...I can't command the cavalry."

Hardy was stunned.

Then he immediately reacted: "Wait, you don't know how to ride?"

The riding skill here does not refer to the skill of simply controlling a horse to run, but the ability to fight on horseback.

If it's another cavalry regiment, it doesn't matter if the general doesn't know how to ride a horse, as long as he can command and use tactics.

But the Blade Knights can't.

Jeanne, the first-generation saint, always charges forward in every battle.

It can be said that the Knights of Silver Wings are a special knighthood established under the brilliance and bravery of the first generation Jeanne.

It is also tradition and 'rules' for the Lord to lead the charge of the Blade Knights.

Its combat effectiveness is extremely strong, but the requirements for its commander are very high.

Otherwise, what is the difference from ordinary knights!

Dora's 'riding skills' are not bad, and she can take on the role of head coach of the Blade Knights.

But not Victor.

Hardy brushed his hair helplessly.

"Have you never considered that Mr. Dora will grow old?" Hardy looked at Victor, hating that iron is not as good as steel: "You are already in your thirties, so you have never considered inheriting the position of coach of the Blade Knights. The problem?"

Hadi is a junior and a vassal of the Jeanna family. Logically speaking, he cannot question his elders like this.

But the men in Jeanna's family are inherently gentle, and to put it mildly, they are cowardly.

Not only was Victor not angry, but he felt that Hardy's doubts were reasonable, and he immediately fell into depression and loss.

"Our Jeanne family had no intention of relaunching the Blade Knights." Victor lowered his head and said, "It was only after you came and at your suggestion that the Blade Knights were reorganized."

So this is the reason why you don’t learn ‘riding’?

Hardy sighed helplessly.

He looked at Dora, who was still in a coma next to him, and knew that there was no hope for the old man for the time being.

Even if he could wake up in the next second, he couldn't be allowed to wear armor, ride a horse, and lead the Silver Wing Knights to charge and kill the enemy while being seriously injured.

That's so inhumane.

Hardy looked around. There were several captain-level people staying here. Although Hardy almost didn't know them, he thought they were all important members or confidants of the Jeanna family.

"Since Viscount Victor does not have the courage to take over the position of coach, then the identity of the coach now falls on me." Hardy looked around and said: "Go and inform all the captains and corps commanders to go to the school field. I will A pre-war meeting was held in the name of Hardy, the new Viscount of Carlo City."

After that, Hardy walked out.

The captains in the tent looked at each other, then went outside to pass messages to each other.

Victor is not considered the legitimate heir, so his title is only Viscount, and Hardy is also a Viscount.

In other words, if Archduke Dora does not wake up, the people with the highest status now are Hardy and Victor.

He did have the power to call a pre-war conference.

Hardy took the first step and came to the speech platform.

He stood there and waited for a while, then saw a group of people wearing white armor and holding helmets on their heads approaching.

There were sounds of armor, and soon Hardy was in front of him.

The group eyed Hardy suspiciously.

They had also heard about the newly consecrated viscount in the Jeanna family.

I thought he was some powerful big shot, but I didn't expect that he was actually a pretty young man.

Hardy did not talk nonsense to them: "Coach Dora was seriously injured and did not wake up, and Sir Victor also has difficulty moving. Now as the person with the highest title, I will take up the position of coach immediately, with immediate effect."

Now the battle situation is extremely urgent. The enemy is still deploying simple anti-cavalry facilities while advancing slowly.

Once the battle line is advanced to within fifty meters, the Blade Knights have no hope of victory at all.

"I object...ah!"

Hardy didn't even want to see what the other person's face looked like, so he just waved a magic ray and knocked it away.

Don't give anyone a chance to object.

The man fell backward and rolled twice, but he quickly stood up unsteadily and was obviously not seriously injured.

Everyone could see that Haru didn't kill him.

"Everyone in the Silver Wing Knights is wearing armor and gathering in front of the military camp." Hardy turned to look at the captain of the infantry regiment next to him. They were wearing gray armor and it was easy to tell them apart: "All the archers of the infantry regiment are going to the archery tower or Higher up, when we go out, carry out fire strikes first to help us create at least three minutes."

Before the knights attack, they need time to arrange their formation.

Several captains of the infantry regiment nodded repeatedly.

Because the archer team is usually lightly armed, almost all of the people who survived this time were archers.

No one was reduced.

There are still one hundred and thirty people.

And it also carries enough arrows, so there is no problem at all for a fire coverage.

The army needs strong decision-makers. With Hardy's brief but clean orders, the morale of these middle-level officers has subtly improved a lot.

"Then, all knight captains must immediately gather their teams and assemble in front of the military camp."

"Your Excellency Hardy, who will lead the charge?"

The Silver Wing Knights need a 'soul'. On the battlefield, the direction where this 'soul' is is the direction the Knights follow.

"I will lead the charge."

The captains of the knights all looked suspicious.

They admit that Hardy seems to be a man, at least much better than Victor.

But the other side has no armor, and the other side doesn't have a sacred and heavily armored war horse... taking the lead in the charge?

Take the lead and die.

As soon as the coach dies, the Blade Knights will immediately be defeated!

Hardy jumped from the high platform and landed in the open space.

Then raise your left hand upward.

Dark clouds suddenly rolled in, covering the sky and the earth, and the world became dark.

The huge dark magic power spread out from his body, forming a huge black cocoon.

A strong sense of oppression surged out of the black cocoon, and the air seemed to vibrate.

After just a few seconds, the black cocoon exploded and turned into dark mist. In the haze, two pairs of blood-red eyes were the first to appear.
