This is a question that needs to be paid attention to, and Kant has no intention of questioning or questioning it.
But let 2 royal knights with the power of kings, plus 500 Swadian heavy cavalry wearing chain armor and having the rank of knights, who have been tested in the Calradia battlefield, just come back from such a rout. is a problem.
Kant stared. He also saw that the plate armor of the two royal knights was full of pits and scratches caused by weapons. He continued very solemnly: "I believe in your loyalty, but I don't know what happened to you. Enemies, I want to know how they can, how can, how can they defeat you so easily!"
"Yes, that's right, Lord Lord, we were attacked by those undead cavalry for the first time in the middle of the night three days ago. Accompanied by a cold current, they rode their horses and galloped on the condensed salt-alkali land."
The royal knight spoke without any rebuttal, but seriously stated what he knew.
They retreated back in such a mess.
It is indeed defeated.
If it weren't for their excellent military qualities and their battle-tested experience still supporting them, it is estimated that they would have collapsed on the body of the ordinary cavalry, looking after themselves, fleeing all over the mountains and plains!
That is the real defeat, the enemy will catch them one by one like slaughtering lambs, and then wipe their throats with ease!
Crushed soldiers are not as good as bandits.
The same applies to this world.
The focus of Kant's attention was to make the elite Swadian heavy cavalry be defeated, or even nearly defeated, and all of them dispersed. He wanted to know what the enemy was.
How did he defeat his troops!
The royal knight continued to narrate.
"When we found out that it was too late, they quickly appeared at our tent. If it weren't for the cavalry who were in charge of sentry to fight on foot, the position where the undead cavalry attacked was also the tent where the slaves lived. I guess we were there. A group of undead cavalry wiped out the entire army in the first sneak attack."
"Continue." Kant looked serious.
"yes."
The royal knight nodded and continued: "We quickly realized that everyone was fully equipped to meet the enemy, and in front of our two knights with extraordinary strength, we defeated all the leading skeleton cavalry and barely stabilized the front line. The slaves were already running around in a panic, and we didn't care about them, we just stabilized ourselves while fighting and preparing, and took supplies and retreated on horseback."
Kant nodded, and said calmly: "You are doing a good job. This is just a bunch of useless slaves. You really don't need to care about it. We will have more slaves in the future."
"That's exactly what we thought, so we prepared to retreat under the impact of more and more skeleton cavalry."
When the royal knight said this, he looked embarrassed: "Then...then..."
"Then what?"
Kant noticed the hesitation of these royal knights.
Slightly frowning, he said in a deep voice: "What happened, tell us directly. Since it has already happened, it is impossible to undo it, but it can make us prepare."
"Then..." the royal knights shook their heads and smiled wryly: "It's... death knights!"
"Death knight."
Kant repeats this vocabulary.
But his eyes were even more wrinkled: "That's right, it's the death knight. I know this kind of undead army, maybe it's the commander and commander of those skeleton cavalry."
"Yes, you are right, my lord."
The royal knight smiled wryly: "It is indeed the commander. There are 5 death knights in it, and they have the extraordinary power of negative energy, which entangled the two of us, and at the same time let the larger number of skeleton cavalry entangle the Swadia. The heavy cavalry surrounded us directly, and it was also in this battle that we killed dozens of heavy cavalry, and twenty or thirty people were separated during the breakout process, and now it is estimated that it is more or less ominous."
"Is that really the case?" Kant asked, his brows furrowed, but he understood a little more. This was no different from what he had guessed. Since he was a death knight, it was normal for him to have extraordinary power.
Although the undead race is a special race born out of other races.
But it is still similar to the mainstream system.
Since he is a knight and is still the commander of the undead army, according to what Kant learned in the film and television literature works of his previous life, it is only natural that he has some wisdom in his lifetime, and even the extraordinary power in front of him!
After all, this is also a fantasy world!
"We were chased by undead cavalry along the way. Thankfully, we were already prepared, so we didn't suffer any more serious injuries. Although the group of undead cavalry was large in number and looked scary, their real combat effectiveness was still not enough. , as fragile as a bone."
The royal knight hesitated for a moment, but said in affirmation: "One Swadian heavy cavalry can easily kill three skeleton cavalry. If you work hard, you can kill five skeleton cavalry without any problem."
"Continue, I'm curious about the real combat power of those undead." Kant nodded.
"Well, maybe I'm lying."
The royal knight said: "But according to my observation, at that time, our 500 Swadian heavy cavalry broke through the encirclement of at least 3,000 skeleton cavalry at a certain price, and behind the dozens of people killed in battle, there were at least 200 soldiers. The skeleton cavalry was beaten to pieces, and when the opponent chased us, they often caught up and couldn't really defeat us."
"Huh?" Kant frowned slightly, and he was even more curious about what the royal knight said.
But there is also a little curiosity in my heart.
The Royal Knights don't lie.
Moreover, being able to rush out from the encirclement of so many skeleton cavalry also shows the incompetence of these undead cavalry. If the cavalry of the Lion Principality were here, they would probably be able to surround and trap these Swadian heavy cavalry to death.
On the battlefield, a quantitative advantage cannot be easily compensated by a little quality advantage.
This is what Kant affirmed.
But now, according to the royal knights, 3000+ skeleton cavalry surrounded them, and there were 5 death knights with extraordinary powers among them, allowing them to break out.
It is enough to explain the weakness of the undead race in terms of individual combat effectiveness.
"If we have 1,500 Swadian heavy cavalry, we can easily defeat those skeleton cavalry."
The Royal Knights finally concluded: "If there are 3,000 Swadian heavy cavalry, then all those skeleton cavalry can be directly crushed into bones!"
Just then.
On the next stairs, a Vikia archer quickly came over as an orderly.
Standing next to Kant's seat, the respectful Suanhui reported: "We found that the undead cavalry began to retreat, and left a more ornately equipped death knight alone. We speculated that the other party might be a messenger left behind on purpose. want to negotiate with us."
"negotiation?"
Kant smiled playfully: "It's really interesting."
