The Lord of the Oasis

Chapter 539: Gradually cloudy sky

Views:

The ten Sarion Lion Knights quickly found another ten Sarion Lion Knights appointed by Kant as scouts. They were all knocked out and hid in the barracks.

Different from those nobles who couldn't wake up, the ten Sarion lion knights all woke up after being shaken by their robes.

The black armored knight did not kill them as Kant expected.

Soon, Bestur arranged the defense of the east gate of Lionheart City.

Again only 200 soldiers.

150 crossbowmen, plus 50 Rhodok sergeants.

They are all fifth-level arms, and the lunge is just right for defending the city.

However, such 200 soldiers should be able to defend the south gate of Lion Heart City and the north gate of Lion Heart City. Even in the face of a siege army of two or three thousand, it can last until Kant sends reinforcements.

But in Dongchengmen, the situation is not easy to say.

This is the aristocratic area, and their strength is really strong.

"My lord, my subordinates can only deploy these garrison troops at the east gate."

Bestur said when returning to Kant.

"The strength of the Temple of War is unknown, we can't distribute too many troops on the garrison."

Kant nodded, glanced at the aristocratic district in DC, and said:

"The only thing we can do is to capture the West City Gate, and then we'll have to worry about it!"

Afterwards, Kant did not delay, and directly led the army towards the XC area.

Today's plan was originally intended to capture the East City Gate, and then coerce and appease the nobles in the noble district, but now these nobles are in a deep sleep, and when they wake up depends entirely on the decision of the great mage who put them in mental imprisonment. settings.

Coercion and appeasement are naturally out of the question.

Kant led the army all the way to the west, with the presence of mages, they released a few groups to accelerate the walking army at will, which made Kant's marching speed very fast.

The originally sunny weather suddenly turned gloomy.

Kant looked up at the sky, and at some point, the sun had been blocked by thick dark clouds.

On both sides of the East Avenue, the neatly planted yew trees were also rustling by the strong wind at this time, while the branches kept shaking violently.

Dark clouds hang down, strong winds blow.

"This is, it's going to rain!"

At this time, Kant led the army and was about to reach the central area of Lionheart City. Most of the pedestrians on the avenue hid in the surrounding buildings again because Kant's army went and returned, and did not dare to show their faces casually.

Only a few people dared to stand on the side of the road, observe Kant's army, and even point fingers.

After all, when Kant passed by before, he didn't do anything to them.

"The whole army stops!"

"The mage listened to the order, and cast the spells of 'Golden Blade' and 'Group Acceleration' on all knights!"

Kant suddenly issued an order!

Hearing Kant's order, the mages quickly cast a "sharp gold blade" status spell on all the knights, and then gave the knights time for the "group acceleration" status spell. Then, they retreated back to the original team.

Group acceleration, without further explanation, is a buff magic that increases group speed.

Sharp Gold Blade:

Status spells.

The mage adds status magic to the surrounding soldiers. The range is about 10 meters around the soldiers. After casting, the magic elements will gather on the weapons in the hands of the soldiers, making melee weapons such as sword blades, blades, and gun blades become Sharper, causing greater casualties to the enemy.

Immediately afterwards, Kant ordered the cavalry to arrange before the charge.

According to the current dense formation, it is impossible to charge, that is courting death!

Kant does this because:

At this time, Kant saw from a distance that the West Avenue, seven or eight miles away, was already covered with densely packed troops.

There are a lot of troops, filling the West Avenue like a bloody river.

The knights of the Temple of War, the knight armor they wear is uniform blood red, and the sacrificial robes worn by the priests of the Temple of War are also blood red. There are also some guards of the Temple of War who are similar to infantry. They are also blood red, and even their shields are blood red.

The color of blood red looks like bright red blood, but at the same time it can represent majestic fighting spirit and fearless courage. On the battlefield, the most indispensable thing is the wanton splashing and flowing blood, and the majestic fighting spirit and fearless courage are also the most precious qualities on the battlefield.

As the army and priests of the God of War, they are all blood red as a matter of course.

Seven or eight miles away, Kant could feel the soaring aura of that army.

But separated by seven or eight miles, Kant could not see in detail how many troops gathered in the West Avenue like a blood-red river.

Just in terms of size, the number will not be smaller than his army.

Moreover, there are a huge number of cavalry!

At this time, Kant's army numbered three to four thousand.

At the forefront is Kant leading the heavy cavalry that has been arranged.

250 Swadian royal knights, 240 Sarion lion knights, 500 Mamluks, a total of 990 extremely powerful heavy cavalry.

In Lionheart City, the East-West Avenue is as wide as the North-South Avenue, with a width of 30 meters. For every 10 knights in a row, there are nearly a hundred rows of cavalry alone.

At the front, there are Swadia Royal Knights and Sarion Lion Knights arranged at intervals, a row of Swadia Royal Knights, and a row of Sarion Lion Knights. Behind are 50 Mamluks. Kant was between the last row of Sarion Lion Knights. Almost in the center of all cavalry.

Moreover, there is a distance of at least five meters between every two rows.

Cavalry charges require a large enough distance.

Immediately following the rest of the heavy cavalry led by Kant, Kant handed over to Bestur to lead, and they were not cavalry. The lineup is much denser.

Bestur also saw the army on the West Avenue, and after hearing Kant's order for the whole army to stop, Bestur immediately set up.

He also asked the mage to cast the two buff spells "Golden Blade" and "Group Acceleration" on all the troops before arranging all the troops except the cavalry.

At the forefront, there are 850 Rhodok sergeants, each row has nearly 50 or 60 soldiers, a total of 16 or 7 rows, and they are densely packed.

The 16th and 17th platoons of Rhodok sergeants only occupy the length of 12 or 30 meters of the East Avenue, and the density can be imagined.

Infantry can only fight against cavalry with dense phalanxes.

Block the cavalry!

If you can't stop it, let the cavalry sink in!

The large broad shield used the method of stacking shields layer by layer. Although the defense is not as good as the Swadian sergeant who used the tower shield to penetrate deep into the ground on the plain battlefield, the Rhodok sergeant But also not to be underestimated.
