The King of Knights in a Different World

"Since this is the case, Gao Wenqing should also trust the people he picked as a rookie and give them some tolerance, shouldn't he? Before the last team leaves the field, we should watch the game here."

Facing Lucifer's words, Gawain didn't continue to be persistent, he stepped aside again.

"I..., I'm too immature, please forgive me."

"It's okay! I have seen your loyalty, and I also agree that Gao Wenqing has the ability to pass the assessment. But, Gao Wen, this Thunder Gun Corps is the trump card I prepared for the Flying Dragon Corps. This is not your battlefield. I have more Important tasks need you to complete."

He had heard of the French Flying Dragon Legion before, but before seeing it with his own eyes, Lucifer was not sure whether those things possessed the defense of ancient dragons. Now it seems that although those things can barely be called dragons, they are still far from ancient dragons. *

That being the case, there is no need to expend one's own energy to create a large number of extreme thunder guns, as long as the power of ordinary thunder guns is attached to a specific spear and made into a disposable product. This is also the reason why Lucifer needs this troop.

Gao Wen may be suitable to be the commander of this army, but before that, Lucifer has more important things for him to do.

"Anytime and anything."

"Just in time, our new friend should almost be back."

Just as Lucifer finished speaking, the guard's voice came from outside the door.

"My lord, Robin Hood asks to see you."

"Let him in."

The guard opened the door and led Robin Hood in, then took his leave.

"Ah! Congratulations! I've heard about the previous war, and it was a beautiful victory." Robin Hood's tone was very relaxed.

"Then now, Robin Hood, I believe you should have no doubts about my ability to win this war."

"It's just a boost of confidence. I have already found out what you asked me to find out before. I even got some additional information."

"You guys step back first. There is martial law thirty feet outside the door, don't let anyone get close."

Lucifer signaled the other ordinary soldiers in this room to retreat, leaving only Gawain and Artoria. After a while, there were only four people left here.

"Okay! Here are people I trust. Now you can talk about the information you just got." At this moment, Lucifer motioned for Robin Hood to continue.

"Before you asked me to go to the White Rock Fortress to inquire about the situation. I took advantage of the time of your battle to sneak in and walk around. I found that the situation there is similar to your guess. Now there are only 1,000 defenders in the White Rock Fortress, and The defense is slack." Robin Hood said the news he got.

He was entrusted by Lucifer to investigate the lost fortress, under the blessing of the Faceless King. It was easy for him. He easily walked around the White Rock Fortress.

"Where's the road in the mountains to the west?" Lucifer continued to ask.

"There is only one path in the mountains that can be used for marching. It was originally opened by hunters long ago, and it has been abandoned because of the war. Except for wild animals, there is no French sentinel on the road. I even doubt that they even know this road. .”

"What about the condition of the trail and the number of marching troops?"

"The path is not on the edge of very dangerous terrain, but it is difficult to walk because of the terrain. I estimate that in a short period of time, it can only provide a few hundred troops at most. It will take some time to get over a thousand troops. .”

"Can the knight pass?"

"No! The road there is too harsh for war horses. It's okay for people to walk, so don't worry about horses. By the way, this is a map." As if thinking of something, Robin Hood took out his own map. He handed it to Lucifer.

Lucifer took the map and found that the information marked on it was very detailed. There is a red line on the map connecting the Whitestone Fortress from the vicinity of the Dragonscale Fortress. Not surprisingly, following the red line on the map, you can walk quietly from the mountains in the west to the White Rock Fortress.

The only problem now is that the horses can't walk through. If the knights don't have the horses, their combat ability will drop a lot. But if you want to sneak attack, there is no better way now. The only thing that needs to be considered is the combat effectiveness of the defenders in the fortress.

"Can't the horse go away? How's the situation in the fortress?"

"The French are still repairing. It seems that they have destroyed enough before. By the way, my extra good news is that because of the destruction of the fort, there is a path near the cliff that can be climbed by rope. They didn't think about repairing that Side. This fortress is not only their arsenal, but also a place to store food." Robin Hood seemed to understand what Lucifer wanted to do, and he directly stated a reliable plan.

Although this method is unlikely to get many people up at one time, it is not difficult to attack the dilapidated White Rock Fortress by attacking from below to attract attention, and with his help from the side.

Yes, it is not difficult to take this dilapidated fortress, the difficulty comes after that. Once France finds that the fortress has fallen, as long as their army returns to help, those who went to attack may not be able to return.

Lucifer thought of this a long time ago, and he also thought of a countermeasure. The sneak attack is only to affect the morale of the enemy, and the frontal battlefield is the key.

"Thank you for your help, Robin Hood." Lucifer expressed his gratitude.

"I can't bear the king's thanks."

"You are not being used by others as a courtier, but temporarily joining our army for personal reasons. I don't think there is anything unbearable about you. I may need you to do me a favor next time."

If the other party is his courtier, naturally he does not need this kind of etiquette, but the other party is not. He only provided personal help, Lucifer didn't take his help for granted, it was natural, and gratitude was also a must.

In fact, after hearing Lucifer's words, a smile appeared on Robin Hood's face. Wave your hand and leave the room.

"No problem. Whenever you need me, just call me."

The remaining three fell silent at the same time, Lucifer was thinking about the future plan, while the other two were thinking about the meaning of Robin Hood's words. *

no.32 How did the dragon ride on the face and lose? (Ask for tickets, ask for flowers)

After Robin Hood left, Lucifer continued to wait for the results of the assessment below. When the time was approaching noon, all the qualified candidates had already appeared. There were only more than 500 people in number, which was a little different from the previously estimated 600 people.

But for now, this amount is enough. Compared with those unqualified people who may waste their strength, although the number of qualified people is a little less, at least they are capable enough. Lucifer organized them into an additional unit until they were under his direct command.

After encouraging them to continue the current practice together, Lucifer took Gawain and the others out of here. He asked Giorgios to go to the military conference hall. According to Robin Hood's report, he had a plan to explain to Giorgios.

In the main hall, Siegfried, who was rescued by Lucifer before, also came here, and there were several senior generals in the fortress around. They all showed thinking expressions when they heard Lucifer's plan.

"After going around to the French army from the western mountains and forests, use the elite troops to launch a surprise attack on the White Rock Fortress? King, I don't want to question your ability. It's just that with the current situation, even if we succeed in the surprise attack, the French army will be able to return immediately. It doesn't make sense." Giorgios didn't understand the significance of Lucifer's decision, he was a little puzzled.

The sand table in front of him was doing a war game between the two sides, and Lucifer showed them his plan.

"Under normal circumstances, suddenly it doesn't make much sense, because even if we fight down, we won't be able to defend it. But what if we can defeat the French army? As long as they lose the frontal battlefield, they will subconsciously retreat to the White Rock Fortress, because That is now their important stronghold. At this time, if the other party sees the white lion flag raised from the fortress, what do you think they will think."

This is also the reason why Lucifer only sent a small number of elites. If there are too many, it will undoubtedly cause the frontal battlefield to lose. If you can't fight head-on, the victory on the side will become meaningless.

Looking at the sand table in front of him, Siegfried said what Lucifer didn't say.

"They will think that the Grand Duke Lungominiad has secretly gone south and cut off their retreat. If it was a defeat in the war, this move will undoubtedly lower their morale to the extreme, and the soldiers will definitely flee."

He was defeated head-on, and when he retreated, he found that his hometown had been stolen. What can happen in this case is the collapse of the entire battle situation.

"That's right! This is our chance. A group of people who can only flee will only become prey. Before setting off, I will prepare a secret weapon for Gao Wen. As long as it is used properly, it can deter these deserters with one blow. "

If these people are allowed to retreat to the fort, they may also rely on the fort for defense and at the same time restore the morale of the army. This is what Lucifer doesn't want to see, to disrupt their rhythm, so that if they fail head-on, they will be defeated by thousands of miles.

"This plan is still too risky. If they are discovered by France, they may not be able to come back." Giorgios was still a little cautious. As the commander in chief, he didn't want to waste the lives of his subordinates in vain.

"Duke, I have done investigations beforehand. Not to mention finding out, there is no trace of their activities. It should be said that they never thought about this strategy from the beginning, and this is our good opportunity."

"But……"

"Duke George, we don't have much time. If we can't solve France quickly, we won't be able to grasp the next changes in the situation." Lucifer looked at the hesitant Giorgios, and said something that only they could understand .

Lucifer couldn't explain the situation in the east and north to the people at the scene, so he could only hint at St. George in this way. They didn't have much choice from the start. If the enemy in front of you cannot be quickly resolved, the consequences will be difficult to predict.

In fact, from the standpoint of France, the most important thing they should do now is not to attack, but to wait. As long as the two countries in the north and the east and west act at the same time, they launch a joint attack. At that time, the country may really be hopeless.

such a pity! Although France's commander-in-chief Lothar was an excellent military commander, he was not a good enough strategist. No, or it should be said that the previous big victory made them feel that they were possessed by the God of War, so that they wanted to further build up their military exploits. But anyway, this is my chance.

St. George heard the deep meaning in Lucifer's words. Yes, they don't have much time left. The war in front of them could no longer allow them to fight slowly, not to mention the north and east, even the central royal city needed Lucifer to go back quickly to formally crown and stabilize people's hearts.

The previous stalemate is not applicable at this time.

"I understand. It's just that, Wang, do you already have a way to defeat France head-on?" St. George didn't object, but asked about the next plan.

In his view, since Lucifer had already thought of the plan after France's defeat, there was naturally a way to defeat France head-on.

"I repelled a French attack just now, but that was just the first battle. In the next few days, in order to restore the morale of the army, France will definitely attack head-on. By then, the Flying Dragon Legion that did not fully appear before will also appear together. And this is Our chances, as long as we get rid of these flying dragons, not only will it further damage the morale of the French army, but it will also give us a chance to win a frontal victory." Lucifer spoke of the next possibility.

In the first defeat, France did not lose too many troops, and they still had an advantage. And the next way to defeat them is to target their weaknesses. Hitting the ace unit is the best way.

"Since you have made up your mind, I will obey your order." St. George did not continue to insist. He also understood that they couldn't afford it.

"Everyone, don't hesitate, don't be confused, don't hesitate, follow me, and I will bring you victory in the war."

After Lucifer finished speaking, Gawain immediately stood up.

"King, please let me go. I swear in the name of the knight that I will definitely complete this task."

"Naturally, Gao Wenqing. I will let Lancelot and the others come with you. Among the people brought this time, except for the ones I have already selected, you can choose your favorite objects from other people at will. The number is one thousand Two hundred people."

"Thanks you."

After Lucifer and the others decided on the tactics, they immediately started to arrange related matters. After the others left temporarily, Lucifer brought Gawain to his room, and he gave Gawain a sword that was shining with golden light.

"Gao Wen, the name of this sword is [Sun Sacred Sword]. It can release the effect similar to the sword of the king, but it can be used once. You can use it when the French army retreats to the fortress. Remember, chance Only one time."

"Please rest assured, I will never disappoint the king's expectations." Gao Wen took the sword carefully, with an extremely serious expression on his face.

This sword represented Lucifer's trust in him, and as a knight, it was also a noble honor.

On the side, Arturia looked at the sword in Gawain's hand with some envy. Just now she also wanted to take the initiative to ask Lucifer, but thinking of her responsibility, she still gave up this temptation.

Just as Lucifer and the others were getting ready for the next thing, the French camp was wrangling. To be more precise, Lothar was furious because of what this certain prince had done before, but unfortunately, the prince standing in front of Lothar had no intention of repenting at all.

"Marshal Lothar, I know you want to shirk your responsibility so that you can continue to maintain your image as a military god. Needless to say, there are so many." Facing Lothar's fragrant mouth, the prince spread his hands and leaned on the chair , didn't care at all.

"you!"

"In the final analysis, the reason why the previous attack failed is entirely because of your tactics. It should be an opportunity to besiege the new king of Britain, but you attacked the fortress. The most ridiculous thing is that you fell into the trap of the British. It was in vain. Let Siegfried go."

"Siege the new king! Do you think I haven't thought about it? The king holds the holy sword in his hand—the sword of the king. How many lives are you going to use to besiege? Before he just wiped out more than a thousand people with just one sword." Knight, that's because he cared about his own fortress. The place that besieged him was a plain." Lothar almost roared out.

Facing the marshal's roar, the prince also stepped in. He came to Lothar and said maliciously.

"They have the holy sword, don't we, marshal? The holy sword on your waist is not for viewing. Or are you too old to wield the holy sword?"

"Your Highness, the Prince! The one in front of you is the Marshal." Anses couldn't stand it any longer. He was about to say something, but was immediately interrupted by the prince again.

"So what about the marshal? Failure is incompetence. Don't let people tell you about the marshal's failure. I said a long time ago that the best way is to attack the city without any plan at all. The flying dragon army is riding on their faces. You tell me, how can such a war be lost?" the prince asked Lothar forcefully.

"..."

"Two days later, I launched another frontal attack. By that time, Your Highness, I hope that your dragon army will not be reduced by half again." Lothar calmed down and said the next action.

This time, the prince did not continue to object.

"Absolutely not. I will show those British monkeys what real war is."

After speaking, he left here. The two remaining people looked at each other and sighed.

"I can't understand our prince at all." Anses said as he watched the prince disappear.

"He wants to be a hero, Anses." Lothar directly explained the reason.

How could Lothar not understand what the prince was thinking? On the one hand, he didn't like this kind of tactics called tactics very much. In the heart of this prince, war should be fought like a berserker.

What? tactics? How dirty to play tactics. roll! This was probably what Pepin had in mind.

On the other hand, if Lothar's plan wins, he, the prince, will naturally not be the number one hero. The previous White Rock Fortress has already been robbed of credit by Lothar, and this time the prince wants to be the protagonist.

However, he also agreed with the prince's idea.

How did the flying dragon lose? *

no.33 Flying dragon riding on the face? Innocent!

On the plain in front of the Dragonscale Fortress, the horn sounded again. This time, France did not design any traps as before, but chose to attack below.

Lucifer looked at the rows of troops below, and made a rough calculation. The number of the entire French army is at least 130,000, but it should be less than 160,000. This is only 150,000, and the opponent's strength is at least nearly one-third more than his own.

There are more than 400 flying dragons in the sky, but looking at them from a distance makes one's scalp tingle. Lucifer also didn't want to investigate why the air force on his side was so small, he concentrated on dealing with the situation that might arise next.

"Duke George, have the previous strong archers and magic crossbows all gathered in one place?" Lucifer looked at the huge siege and the approaching buildings.

"The assembly has been completed, and they will swear to the death to complete their mission. Until the last person."

"They are all brave fighters, and I will not let their lives be sacrificed in vain." Lucifer raised the holy sword in his hand and roared to the surroundings.

"My countrymen, take your weapons and fight. This battle will be recorded in history, turned into an epic, and passed on to future generations. For Britain!"

Using this as a starting point, all the soldiers on the wall began to shout the same slogan.

"For Britain!"

The national flag stood up side by side, and countless soldiers held up their weapons, showing their determination to fight to the death.

In the distance, with the blowing of a giant horn, the French army began to line up along the plain. The huge war machinery was already in place, and countless huge flying stones burning with flames flew out of the trebuchet and flew into the fortress.

The vanguard rushed up and came within the bow and arrow range of the fortress, and countless feathered arrows fell like rain. Rows of people fell down, but there were still rows of people climbing up the city wall with ladders. At the same time, the flying dragon army in the sky also invaded the sky at this time, and they poured down the dragon flames frantically.
