Year 2671 in the solar calendar.
The junction of the Principality of Stan and the Kingdom of Nott.
On the plain, two huge waves of men and horses faced each other. In front of the chaotic militia, there was a full-body Iron Knight.
The wind is howling, the flags are hunting, and a brutal war seems about to break out.
"My knights! My subjects!"
Before the war started, King Nott was carried by a maroon horse to the military formation and began a customary speech: "Across from you are the despicable and shameless troops of the Principality of Stan. Their regent assassinated the former Grand Duke. They have usurped power through conspiracy, and now they are trying to steal the wheat, gold coins, and women of our suzerain country! Can you allow them to do this?... In the name of King Nott, those who have made meritorious service in this battle, I will give him the glory he deserves, even make him a nobleman, and obtain a fiefdom in the Principality of Stan!"
"Warriors, hold on to your spears and arrows, let the Principality of Stan see the courage of our Kingdom of Nott!"
Along with the king's speech, many militiamen cheered together, and the sound became louder and louder.
…
Opposite him, Fang Yuan looked at this scene, but he was quite speechless.
According to the original customs of this world, even if a large army is fighting, there are still some etiquette and rules.
The speech before the battle is only one aspect, there are more hidden rules, such as not capturing the opposing general, and when encountering nobles and knights, you must try to capture them alive in exchange for ransom, etc.
Even if the enemy is defeated, some fiefdoms and compensation will only be reduced. There is no such thing as "breaking the country and destroying the family".
In Fang Yuan's opinion, it was just like playing house.
But he also knows that this is actually the rule of this world! Rules unique to the nobility!
In the game of thrones, only noble blood can participate, so too much bloodshed cannot be allowed.
Through this form, its purpose is to reduce the intensity of wars caused by conflicts to the lowest level, thereby maintaining the control of the noble generations over the lower classes.
"It's a pity... old guy, you can't keep up with the times!"
Fang Yuan looked at the military formation opposite, with some pity in his eyes.
The foundation of aristocratic rule still lies in strength!
However, the world at this time was experiencing drastic changes with the advent of demons and gods. The situation was turbulent. At the time of great chaos, the appearance of the Son of Purgatory caused the power from the upper levels to begin to transfer to the lower levels.
When the original power structure is violently impacted, sticking to the previous rules is completely self-destructive!
Only by constantly seeking change can we strive to move forward in the great era and not be eliminated!
"kill!"
Facing the enemy formation, Fang Yuan directly drew out his long sword and gave a fierce drink.
He didn't need to do anything like boosting morale or inspiring people. As early as when he was in China, he had passed a system similar to the ancient Qin military merit conferment order.
It is stipulated that all soldiers in the army, whether they are nobles, civilians, or slaves, can receive corresponding rewards as long as they are beheaded.
If a slave is beheaded at one level, he will immediately get rid of his status as a slave. If a commoner is beheaded at one level, he will be rewarded with ten silver coins and ten acres of land and house!
Even if you accumulate a lot of military exploits, you can directly be canonized as a noble!
In comparison, the speech given by the other person was just nice-tongued. In the end, it was still the nobles and their second sons who were rewarded with titles.
This has been proven many times in previous wars.
But Fang Yuan is different!
In the last counter-insurgency battle, he firmly implemented this military hierarchy. As a legend, and with Teemo's power, he suppressed all resistance.
Therefore, at this time, his team was full of soldiers who were eager to win and wanted to cut off the enemy's head to claim credit!
"Ouch!"
At his order, all the knights immediately galloped out, and behind them, the red-eyed soldiers ran wildly, biting the cavalry behind like a black torrent.
"Damn it!"
King Nott was halfway through his speech when he saw this scene and couldn't help but turn pale: "This Rune really doesn't understand the etiquette of the nobility at all! A bunch of barbarians!"
After cursing, he quickly fled back to the center of the formation and ordered his generals to attack.
Wow!
A group of fully armed cavalry rushed out, and their number was actually slightly more than the knights on Fang Yuan's side.
After all, it is a kingdom. Even if it encounters drastic changes one after another, its foundation is still stronger than that of the principality.
"It's now!"
Fang Yuan's brows flashed: "Halo of natural disaster!"
Buzz!
A dazzling light emerged from his body and turned into a green gauze, draped around the knight's body.
As if helped by the power of the wind, all the knights of the Principality of Stan started charging again at the peak speed of the charge!
In contrast, the knights of the Nott Kingdom were all weak in arms and legs. A layer of dark red light appeared on their bodies, and even the galloping speed of their horses slowed down.
Cavalry battles rely on the power of charge.
Even if the Nott Kingdom side has more people and better equipment, it goes without saying that the result will be the same if they encounter such an opponent.
boom!
Amidst the loud noise, flesh and blood flew everywhere.
Fang Yuan led the knights, like a sharp spear, trampling the knights on the opposite side into pieces.
Not only that, his knights rushed directly towards the infantry phalanx behind them, and opened a gap with the most ferocious attitude.
Behind him, many principality soldiers roared, like a flood, pouring in from the gap, killing the enemy with red eyes, and the gap continued to expand all of a sudden.
"This this… "
King Nott looked at this scene, his eyes almost popped out of his head, and his face was full of disbelief: "Is the legendary power so strong? Damn Rune, damn the church!"
He was naturally prepared to deal with the Calamity Knights.
The best way to deal with the power of this aura is to dispel it through divine magic.
Unfortunately, because of Lady Harvest, there were no priests of sufficient level willing to help him.
The Church of Harvest and the Church of Joy have already sided with the Principality of Stan, and other churches will not risk offending the goddess by defending a mortal king.
"Are these soldiers from the Principality of Stan? Why are they so strong?"
The king fell into great confusion as he looked at the ferocious enemies, as well as the constantly collapsing military formations and the expanding chaos on his side.
"Your Majesty, should we retreat first?"
Next to him, Ori Xiu watched this scene with a helpless smile on his face.
He was brought by the king specifically to restrain Rune.
But now, he suddenly discovered that the winner had been decided on this battlefield, and there was no need for him to take action.
"What a horrible bunch of people!"
Ori Xiu could see clearly that the ordinary soldiers of the Principality of Stan did not have the boost from the Calamity Knights at all, and even their equipment was lagging behind and inferior, but their fighting will was very tenacious.
Compared with them, the Nott Kingdom was just a group of armed farmers, making judgments.
"Walk?!"
King Nott looked pale and looked at the scene of overwhelming defeat.
Even with his professional physique, he almost vomited blood.
Knowing that this situation could no longer be saved by any manpower, he couldn't help but struggled and said: "Send the order and the rear army will retreat!"
At this time, he just wanted to keep the last bit of his capital.
After all, several big nobles in the country did not agree with the dispatch of troops this time, and they seemed to be complaining. If they lose these strength this time, even the power to maintain the throne will be a little unstable.
"As you command!"
Ollie let out a long sigh.
At this time, the people guarding the king were all storm warriors.
With this group of elites around, even if Lu En personally led the cavalry in pursuit, he was sure that he could lead His Majesty the King away safely.
However, how the situation in Nott Kingdom would develop in the future was beyond his expectation.
"Run? What a terrible person!"
Orius murmured and began to move with the king.
"King Nott has escaped!"
Seeing this scene, the Stan Principality side immediately became more energetic and immediately secured the victory.
…
Somewhere in the Nott Kingdom, there is a secret agency branch.
"Sir, it's not good!"
Amid the hurried footsteps, a crow in black, who was responsible for delivering the news, handed the latest information to the person in charge: "The Principality of Stan defeated Nott's army with 20,000 soldiers, defeating the 50,000 army led by the king, and captured Tens of thousands, countless seizures!”
"What?"
The person in charge here is a middle-aged man with a gloomy face. Hearing this, he immediately frowned and even the quill in his hand trembled: "Damn it! Where is the king at this time? Is he dead?"
"No...but the army of the Principality of Stan did not go back, but marched all the way to the royal capital..."
This crow understands his boss quite well. After all, at this time, his heart is not much better.
"Send the order, we will move immediately!"
The middle-aged man immediately made a decision.
He knew the grudge between his organization and the legend of the Principality of Stan.
Not to mention that he had plotted against the other party when he was still a commoner. Even the bloody wedding of Mirilai and his daughter involved the threading of secret agencies.
The enemy is about to kill you right now, you would be a fool not to run!
"Hey...Knott Kingdom, we will definitely come back!"
He gritted his teeth bitterly, and moving the base was not a simple matter. Many industries had to be abandoned, which was like cutting flesh and bleeding.
"And Luen... you'd better wish you can keep winning, otherwise..."
boom!
Unfortunately, the middle-aged man's wild thoughts were not over yet. There was a violent breaking of the door outside.
"Sir, we are under attack!"
Several deacons in black were covered in blood and ran in in panic.
Behind them were three knights wearing bloody armor.
"Who are you? Do you know that we are a secret organization?"
The middle-aged man calmed down and spoke in a higher tone.
"The secret agency seems to have found the wrong target!"
A joking voice came from under the steel armor: "My lord has an order, no one will be spared!"
"Are you... from Rune?"
The middle-aged man understood everything in an instant, but unfortunately it was of no use at all. The next moment, with the giant sword flying, the room was filled with flesh and blood...
