Riding and Slashing: The Dragon and the Lord

Chapter 487: He drew his sword and left

Views:

He would definitely hide in the city of Aaron and would never send any soldiers here. He would not send the most important food here either. This is a mountainous area, so it is extremely difficult to supply food. Moreover, the activity area is extremely limited. If this continues, he will definitely fail.

Thinking of this, Nozman wanted to take the opportunity to attack the newly arrived white unicorn army at the foot of the mountain. There was no doubt that this time the army had just come from afar, and Nozman was staying on the mountain anyway. It was undoubtedly the best plan to attack the enemy army while they were well rested. Either he could defeat the newly arrived army at the foot of the mountain, or he could starve them to death on the mountain.

So, Lozman chose the former. He immediately summoned the soldiers on the mountains. These mercenaries were equipped with sharp swords. They were also equipped with a special kind of crossbow. Although they were not as powerful as the Rhodok crossbowmen, they were also famous on the continent.

Amirida noticed the enemy's movements on the mountain early on. Since Wals discovered the ambush on the mountain, Amirida also discovered the clues that shouldn't be there on the mountain, so he always paid attention to those points on the mountain. Soon he found more and more ambushes. At this moment, he saw these enemy troops moving on the mountain. There was no doubt that they were going to make a move. Amirida also calculated the time. He and Wals had been together for so long, so he naturally understood the combat effectiveness of Wals' army. It must be Wals who saved the defenders of Malasburg, and now he led his troops to rush over to join him.

Amirida knew that he could not alert the enemy. When Wals attacked Malasburg, he did not withdraw his Swadian knights. At this time, he secretly gathered the remaining Swadian knights in his camp, and Amirida left the other Nord infantry aside. He did not make too many big moves in his camp. This did not attract the attention of Rozman's scouts. In fact, Rozman had decided to give it a try, and he did not dare to pay too much attention to Amirida's movements.

At night, the moon had come out from the clouds. Although it looked like it was going to rain today, in fact it did not rain.

Rozman used a one-handed long sword, and a heavy round shield in his left hand. He wore a chain mail with a gold chain and a helmet on his head to protect his face and head from injury. His round eyes looked out from the two holes in the armor. The armor fit his body very well. He had it specially tailored. There were several marks of slashing on the shield in his left hand, and there were also some wear and tear on the one-handed long sword in his right hand, which was the result of his long years of fighting.

He raised his one-handed long sword and said to his companions behind him: "Brothers! The foot of the mountain has been cut off by the enemy soldiers. Our supplies will no longer come here. Now follow me and rush down the mountain to chop those bastards clean. Only in this way can we get a way to survive. Otherwise, once our supplies are cut off, they will directly attack the top of the mountain. At that time, we will have no power to fight back. At this moment, we take the initiative. It is our only chance to survive."

Rozman's bold words inspired his soldiers and soon their morale was boosted. Rozman was a mercenary leader with rich combat experience. He did not want to attract too much attention from the enemy and slowly led his soldiers towards the foot of the mountain. Halfway up the mountain, he ordered his crossbowmen to shoot at the enemy soldiers at the foot of the mountain first.

Originally, according to Lozman's idea, he would first shoot downwards from halfway up the mountain, firing a large number of crossbow arrows at the enemy to first kill the enemy's morale, and then he would send his own melee infantry to charge downwards.

Obviously, this plan doesn't seem to be very brilliant, but his subordinates are the ones who have followed him through life and death. Of course, some of them are mercenaries summoned by Lord Kesto from various places, and they are not the direct troops under Lozman.

Despite this, Wals at the foot of the mountain was still prepared. He had noticed the unusual movements of Lozman's soldiers on the mountain, so he concluded that at night, Lozman would lead her and her men to attack downwards, so he was ready at night.

As Rozman's crossbowmen shot downward, waves of arrows slid down from the hillside. These arrows from top to bottom had much greater attack power than horizontal shooting. Although the distance was far, which greatly reduced their accuracy, the considerable number of arrows still landed steadily in the Wals camp. But at this moment, the Wals camp was just an empty camp.

Lozman personally led his soldiers in a charge downwards. Under the cover of night they were like ghosts in the darkness.

He originally thought that he would definitely win this battle, and at the very least he could break through the defenses of Wals and return to Aaron, but to his surprise, rows of Nord soldiers holding shields suddenly appeared in front of him. These Nords were tall and strong, and their solid armor provided sufficient defense. What surprised him even more was that their shields were more or less pierced with crossbow arrows, which were undoubtedly the crossbow arrows he ordered to shoot halfway up the mountain. Rozman secretly cried out that it was not good, but it was too late. Rows of Wals soldiers appeared in all directions. Wals soldiers were mainly Nords. The Nords holding battle axes rushed to Rozman's mercenaries, and these mercenaries formed a team to defend under Rozman's command.

The attacking army instantly changed into a defensive formation. At the outermost edge of the army was a row of soldiers holding round shields to organize defense. When the first batch of Nord soldiers rushed forward, they were answered with solid shields. The two sides began to fight at close range. The Nord soldiers' axes hit the heavy shields of Rozman's mercenaries. Then the mercenaries held iron swords in their right hands. When the axes and swords collided, there was a bang. The sound of metal collisions echoed on the battlefield. Suddenly, Rozman shouted wildly, and his sword pierced the body of a Nord soldier.

Then he pushed the Nord soldier forward. The other mercenaries were already used to seeing Rozman's situation. They followed Rozman and slowly moved forward. The soldier Rozman had pierced was lifted up by Rozman's sword and crashed into his companions behind him. Many Nords were knocked away by Rozman's brute force. Suddenly, Rozman had pulled out his sword. In the next second, the sword had cut the neck of a Nord soldier.

Although it was night, the noisy sounds still allowed Walls to feel every move on the battlefield. On his left, where Rozman led the breakout, he could clearly feel Rozman's wild murderous aura. Although it was far inferior to Kadoc's at the beginning, at this moment it seemed like a no-man's land. For the first time, the bravery of the Nords had no effect. One after another, the Nord soldiers fell under his sword, but Rozman was covered with only the blood of the enemy.

Wals did not make a move. He was now the commander of an army and also a king. He should leave this matter to his capable men. He drew the long sword from his waist and pointed the tip of the sword in that direction. In just that instant, a knight rushed to Wals' left front like a gust of wind. Wals knew who this person was without even thinking about it.

The lightly armed Joels rushed towards Rozman who was trying to break through without looking back. Joels was riding his warhorse, and in front of him were large groups of Nord soldiers. Since Rozman and the Nord soldiers were fighting in close combat, neither of them were riding warhorses. Karls also knew that if he joined the war like this, it would be very likely to harm friendly forces, so he dismounted after arriving at the location.

The knight drew his sword from his waist, held the sword with both hands, and rushed towards Lozman without hesitation.

At this time, Lozman had just killed a Nord soldier, and suddenly, he felt a biting cold.

For some reason, he thought of the students from the Kingdom of Vijia. Only the students from the Kingdom of Vijia could make him feel such coldness. The next second, a powerful figure appeared in front of him.

The enemy's general

Rozman knew who the person in front of him was. Needless to say, he was a powerful guy. According to Lord Kesto and what he had seen and heard on the mainland, Rozman had also heard of the famous general under Wals. But he had never heard of this person.

No matter who it is, no one can stop me from leaving here tonight.

Rozman raised her shield and sword and rushed towards Joels. Joels' eyes, hidden under the helmet, did not change color. Rozman also had a strong momentum, but Joels had a calmness that ordinary people could not match. His knight sword danced lightly, and an exaggerated arc covered Rozman's body. He was also a veteran warrior. His left-handed sword blocked Joels' attack, and at the same time, the long sword in his right hand stabbed out, as if it was a meteor that was going to pierce Joels' body. But this was just a trick for Joels.

Joels retracted his knight's sword very quickly, and at the same time, he exerted force with his feet, jumped back and easily avoided Lozman's attack. At this time, before Lozman could react, Joels' legs exerted force again and leaped forward. The knight's sword came out of his hand and just stabbed Lozman's right arm. Lozman's right hand holding the sword trembled a few times, and then the nearby Nord soldiers followed suit.

They raised the axes in their hands and wanted to kill Lozman. Lozman used his shield to protect against the enemy on the left, and used the long sword in his right hand to protect against the enemy on the right. However, his right arm was injured. When the axe of the Nord soldier hit Lozman's long sword, Lozman's arm trembled, and then the long sword that had accompanied him in battles for many years fell from his hand. Fortunately, the shield on his left arm was still intact.

Although Lozman still had his shield in his hand, he actually had no way to survive. At this time, Joels's knight sword had already reached his eyes. Lozman burst out with a powerful force at the last critical moment, and his shield met Joels' fatal blow. Joels believed that with this blow, Lozman would definitely die, but Lozman's last desire to survive caused him to resist the blow.

"You can't kill me, I will survive." Rozman said loudly, his face full of desire to survive. In fact, Rozman has experienced such dangerous scenes countless times, but he still survived because he has an unmatched survival instinct.

Taking advantage of Joels's slight pause, Lozman picked up the iron sword he had dropped on the ground.

"Good buddy, let's get out of here together."

Rozman said to his iron sword.

Joels paused, but the Nord soldiers would not pause because they had seen with their own eyes that this guy killed their brothers, so all the Nord soldiers wanted to kill Rozman.

However, there are a group of Nord soldiers around Lozman who want to kill Norseman, but there are also a group of mercenaries around Lozman who want to escape with Lozman. These mercenaries are all brothers who have been through life and death with Lozman, and they have all been infected with the desire to survive that Lozman has.

Not only Jowers didn't know where to start, but even those brave and combative Nord soldiers didn't know where to start.

Walls, who was watching the battle from a distance, was also a little surprised at this time. He felt that this should be a war that could not be lost.

But until now, the outcome has not yet been determined, which means that some problems have occurred in this battle.

"It seems that I have been too self-righteous recently." Walls muttered. He felt that he should go up and have a good fight with Lozman.

So, Walls began to prepare to join the battle.

However, just as Wals was about to move, a group of cavalry suddenly appeared in the distance.

Wals looked in the direction and determined that these were his soldiers. After that, he saw the familiar figures. When those knights wearing heavy armor appeared in front of Wals, he realized that these were the Swadian knights he left in Dumai.

"It seems that Emilida has seen through my plan. In order not to alert her, I did not tell her about this plan. It is really a pleasant surprise that she knew to lead a cavalry to assist me."

Wals had already seen that the leader of that team was Emerida. Although she was wearing armor, Wals was extremely familiar with her armor.

Seeing this team appear, Walls stopped his actions, because for him, Amirida had already appeared, so he didn't need to take action.

After a while, this group of knights rushed behind the mercenaries.

What followed was a charge. This was a cruel reality. The mercenaries could hardly withstand this group of knights because they had exposed their backs. They had no defense at all, which meant that they now had no way out.

Screams soon spread across the battlefield as the Swadian knights' spears pierced their bodies mercilessly. Their chain mail could not withstand the pummeling of the spears, and the spear charges on horseback could easily penetrate any armor.

It was at this point that Rozman knew he had no way out.

"Charge! Even if we are about to die, we must take someone with us. We cannot go to hell so easily. We are all good brothers who live and die together. In times of crisis, we must unite as one."

All the mercenaries, including those who were not his direct mercenaries, also obeyed Lozman's strong call. It was undeniable that Lozman had extraordinary qualities to become the leader of a large mercenary group. Unfortunately, his opponent was Walls, which meant that he had no chance of winning.

Although the group of mercenaries in the rear had reacted and pointed their weapons at the Swadian knights behind them, Emrida's spear had already killed the subordinate commander who was directing the resistance. Once the subordinate commander died, the battlefield in this area fell into a state of no command. At the same time, the Swadian knights threw away their spears, drew the knight's swords at their waists, holding the fan-shaped shield in their left hands and the knight's sword in their right hands. The heavy armor on their horses protected their mounts from harm, and their knight's swords cut the enemy's throats.

This battle took place at the foot of the mountain. If it had been on the plains, the power of the Swadian Knights would have been even greater. Fortunately, the Nord warriors blocked some of them, otherwise the outcome of this group of Swadian Knights would have been unpredictable.

Joels found Lozman again. Lozman still had the same strong desire to survive, but had Joels' momentum ever decreased by even a little

Joels' knight sword stabbed towards Lozman like a tiger. This attack was sudden and Lozman had to raise his shield to resist. However, a cold light flashed in Joels' eyes. This attack was powerful, but it was just a feint.

After a casual shake, the sword actually bypassed Lozman's shield and went straight in. At this time, Lozman was no ordinary man. Although his right hand was injured, it was still strong and powerful. Coupled with his instinctive desire to survive, he bounced off Joels' attack.

At the same time, he exerted force with both feet and the shield hit Joels directly. Joels was caught off guard and was knocked back repeatedly. However, after Joels moved a few steps, he concentrated his body's strength in one place and blocked Lozman abruptly. At the same time, several Nord soldiers who had already come over raised their axes and swung at Lozman.

Rozman's face changed, but he knew that he would never die at the hands of a soldier. This time, the strength of his legs changed from moving forward to leaping backward. His shield just blocked the attack of the Nord soldier. The long sword in his right hand immediately stabbed out, and Rozman hit the Nord soldier where he had no armor. It was a heavy blow.

The Nord soldier quickly fell in front of Rozman.

Then, Rozman swung his weapon again, and several Nord soldiers were injured or killed. Els knew that he could not hesitate any longer. If he could not kill Rozman, he would run away next.

Behind Rozman, Emerida had dismounted and was fighting on foot. He had killed the mercenaries in front of him one by one, and there were several more corpses on the ground. Judging from the direction he was moving, his goal was to kill the mercenary leader Rozman directly. Anyone could see that the person Joels was fighting was a general, and he was the highest commander of this battle. Emerida wanted to end this war quickly.

Although the Swadian knights were extremely brave, they still suffered some injuries when facing these opponents. In this case, the only way to end this battle as soon as possible was to kill the enemy commander quickly and cause problems in the enemy's command center.

In order to reduce the damage to his men, Amirida tried her best. Joels slashed at Lozman several times in a row, and the rolling slashes were endless. Lozman had no choice but to use his shield to resist. Every time he resisted Joels's attack, Lozman felt that his arm became heavier. The powerful force was transmitted to Lozman's body through the shield, and Lozman's body was numb. Lozman's arm had a wound, and blood kept flowing from her arm. It had been so long, and he felt that he had lost too much blood. At this time, he vaguely felt that there was a strong murderous aura behind him. There was no doubt that when the Swadian knights charged to the back of his team, Lozman already knew that the leading general was definitely an enemy who was no less than Joels.

In that case!

After a little consideration, Rozman knew where he should rush to. In front of him was Joels, and to the left and right were endless Nord warriors. However, as long as he led a group of people to rush to Wals and capture Wals, the battle would be over.

Crazy thoughts unfolded in the mind of this man who was about to face death. He thrust his shield to the left, and a Nord warrior was knocked away by Lozman. Then his sword pierced into the body of the knocked unconscious Nord warrior.

The next second, Lozman had drawn his sword and left.
