The Lord of the Oasis

Chapter 134: Enemies on the horizon

Views:

Kant is no stranger to the Kingdom of Sarleon.

The power of the MOD from "Pendor's Prophecy" is related, and it is not the first Lion Knight Medal that can represent the kingdom.

In fact, the only level 5 arms and only level 5 archers that the sentry oasis now has, the rangers from the Kingdom of Ravenston, are related to the Kingdom of Sarleon, because they used to belong to the Kingdom of Gupander.

It was only later that the Ravenston Kingdom became independent due to the Misty Mountain Incident.

But it all comes from the same source.

In terms of military strength, as the successor of the Ancient Pendor Kingdom, the Sarion Kingdom will still be able to steadily suppress the Ravenston Kingdom, relying on the powerful heavy cavalry and the strongest national knights—the Lion Knights .

It is the unit represented by this [Lion Knight Medal].

The medal in Kant's palm.

The whole is like a fan shield, with a lion representing fearlessness and strength depicted on the front.

Golden lion on red background.

The overall paint is similar to Kant's [Position to Deter the Enemy].

The difference is only the difference between the flag and the medal.

But this medal represents the Knights of the Lion of the Kingdom of Sarleon.

It is one of the best in the group battle of the heavy cavalry, and perhaps even the Swadian knights are slightly inferior. Only the legendary Swadian royal knights can compete with the powerful heavy cavalry!

"Send charcoal in the snow."

Kant couldn't help muttering to himself.

This medal, representing the Order of the Lion, fits the Kingdom of Swadia very well.

Both countries are dominated by cavalry, and the combat order of the troops is also heavy cavalry at the top.

Wearing heavy armor with a man and a horse, and holding a long and thick lance, the horse advances. With the continuous speed of the horse running, it reaches the state of full-speed charge. The speed of running brings its own momentum and weight inertia, and 3 meters The sharp tip of the lance rushes forward like an avalanche, smashing all the enemies in front of you, and destroying them!

What's more, this [Lion Knight Order Medal] has special characteristics.

[Characteristics: When the cavalry general wears this medal, the charging distance of the cavalry unit will be shortened by 30%, and the charge stage will be accelerated. Remarks: This medal seems to hide other secrets, but the conditions have not been met.]

Kant scanned the introduction column.

It is the characteristics of this medal that make its value increase dramatically.

Especially in the hands of a commander who is good at leading the cavalry to fight, it can play a role as an artifact!

Shorten charging distance by 30%.

Speed up and enter the charging state.

These two key sentences represent that the cavalry commander can mobilize the horses to launch an overwhelming charge within a shorter distance, allowing all the heavy cavalry to enter a state of charge that can destroy everything!

On the battlefield, heavy cavalry is the greatest source of fear.

No troops dared to stand in front of them.

Because of the frenzy of heavy cavalry that had already entered the charging state, even they themselves could not stop the offensive freely.

Just crush everything.

will stop.

And the troops in front of them will be like a group of innocent sheep facing the flood that broke the embankment. The hard horseshoe trampled over the body, and finally turned into a puddle of unrecognizable flesh.

Kant already has the most suitable candidate for this invincible artifact commanded by the cavalry.

A knight who was forgiven by his father, Fatis, who once wandered for some reason.

This knight from the military aristocrat of the Kingdom of Swadia, who received various elite education since he was a child, and who has also practiced on the mainland for several years, is actually the best wearer of this [Order of the Knights of the Lion].

Kant believed he could make the most of it.

From trust and affirmation.

The same is from Kant's self-knowledge.

For the battlefield with complex environment, Kant is a novice at all, unable to correctly command large troops to fight.

He is good at strategy, not tactics.

most critical.

Kant would not personally lead the heavy cavalry to charge.

Because he is a nobleman and a lord with deployment.

What should be done is to sit in the rear to coordinate and wait for the result. You only need to make the most reasonable decision, let the vassal generals handle it by themselves, and then give him the best result and victory.

"Notify the Fatis knight to come over."

Kant came to the first floor, sat in his chair and gave orders to the guards.

"Understood." The guard turned and left.

Not long after, Fatis walked in quickly, saluted respectfully: "Master Kant, just finished arranging the accommodation for those refugees, and heard the guard say that you are looking for me."

"Yes, come closer."

Kant nodded, and put the medal in his hand on the table next to him: "Take a look at this medal."

Fatis came over and respectfully picked up the [Medal of the Knights of the Lion] on the table, with a bit of surprise in his eyes, he swallowed and said, "I seem to feel a power in this medal."

As a knight, he felt the power displayed by the characteristics of the medal.

"You should be able to use this power reasonably."

Kant stood up, nodded to Fatis and said, "This medal is in your custody for the time being."

"Thank you for your trust." Fatis immediately saluted respectfully.

This is from the trust of the lord.

Without hesitation, he stuck the medal on his chest.

A faint golden glow flickered, and the golden lion on the red background on the medal was directly printed on the linen robe covered by his chain mail, but when he opened the robe, he could also find that the medal was also on the chain mail.

Kant thought about it.

This medal is not pinned on the clothes, but is bound by the soul.

"Continue to work, pay attention to vigilance."

Kant waved to Fatis, indicating that he could leave.

But before leaving, Kant suddenly thought of something, and asked with a frown, "From the ruins of the tribe to the sentry oasis, at the walking speed of the wolf man, how long do you think it will take them?"

"About 3 days." Fatis replied after thinking.

"Hmm." Kant lowered his head slightly.

This is the same as his speculation. After all, the first battle with the infantry to the tribe took nearly 4 days.

Taking into account the Gnoll's endurance talent and pace, 3 days is about right.

Frowning tightly, Kant tapped his fingers on the table and said solemnly: "If I guess correctly, the time when they arrive at the sentry oasis may be tomorrow?"

"That's right." Fatis nodded.

"Okay." Kant tapped his fingers on the table a little hastily.

Received a warning from the system from yesterday.

A day and a half had passed so far. If calculated in three days, these jackals would arrive tomorrow.

Last day of the week.

"Get ready." Kande said in a slightly serious tone, "Remember to double the sentry at night."

"Yes." Fatis nodded solemnly.

With nothing else to do, he quickly exited the hall after saluting. The defense work of the entire fortress was in order, so Kant was relieved that it was right to entrust these tasks to Fatis.

No one knows their country's troop arrangements better than the military aristocrats of Swadia.

Sentry Oasis is ready for war.

Except for the city wall made of stones, this oasis has been completely cleaned up by the civilians.

The lush date palm forests have all been cut down.

The luxuriant Achnatherum splendens beach was also harvested clean with a sickle.

The agricultural area and the pastoral area were bare and nothing was left. Even the half-meter-high fence was knocked down by the careful peasant women, who picked up the stones and transported them back to the fortress, and transported them to the top of the attic of the city wall, where they were carefully piled up.

At intervals there will be piles of boulders.

If necessary, these stones will be smashed down in an emergency to curb the enemy's offensive.

It was getting dark.

Torches are lit inside the fortress.

The sentinel on duty at night was very energetic, watching the sand dunes in the distance vigilantly on the city wall and arrow tower.

Although the light released by the stars and the moon is soft, it can still see things.

Even in the darkest hours before dawn.

Fatis also arranged for sentries to be vigilant, and there was also a patrol team composed of Swadian infantry, walking in the attic with chain armor boots, making harsh noises, sometimes waking up the sleeping crossbowmen on the city wall.

This is the patrol that Kant specially entrusted Fatis to arrange.

Kant, who is good at attacking during the time before dawn, is also very vigilant about this time period.

Thankfully, all is well.

The gnoll's army did not come.

Dawn appeared in the east piercing the darkness in this sky.

The sun rises.

Sunday comes.

The last day of this week is also the time when the Gnoll may appear.

"Boom-boom-boom-"

The bronze bell of the clock tower was rang by the Swadian light infantry in charge of the administration due to custom.

Facing the rising sun, the clear sound enveloped the entire oasis.

15 Sarande riders, 25 elite desert bandits, and 40 desert bandits as a quick-response light cavalry team have all woken up and quickly assembled in the open space on the east side after washing.

These war horses had already fed the fodder and water as early as midnight.

Right now I'm full of energy.

The light cavalry checked their weapons and equipment, quickly got on their horses, and roared out with the opened city gate.

Early morning routine patrol.

A group of several people spread out in a cone-shaped area and galloped towards the north.

But when everyone went deep into the desert, beyond the limit of vision that even the arrow tower could not detect, and turned over layers of sand dunes, the desert bandit at the front suddenly tightened his reins, his eyes narrowed slightly.

"Call—"

He hastily tightened the reins and stopped the desert horse under his crotch.

The same goes for the companions behind.

On the distant horizon, swarms of black spots are moving, like ants on the sand, slowly marching towards the south where they are, not fast, but not slow either.

And this means that the troops are marching.

The enemy is coming!
