"Why?"
Marquis Garcia looked at Marquis Dawson, who had been restrained by the angry Black Cavalry officers, and asked sadly.
Marquis Dawson smiled, and said calmly: "I'm sorry, my lord Marquis, you are very kind to me, and I don't want to betray you. But, in order to let the dwarves fulfill their long-cherished wish of establishing a country, I have to do this!"
"Dwarves to establish a country?" Marquis Garcia's eyes flashed a little, and then he pointed to the pure white horse flag that suddenly rose above the canyon, and asked, "Is this the promise that the St. Pros family gave you?"
Marquis Dawson shook his head: "No. In fact, I didn't know that the army in the Eastern Territory was ambushing in the Shadow Canyon."
"Who was it that encouraged you to do this?"
The Marquis of Dawson smiled playfully: "Master Marquis, why don't you doubt the Duke of St. Hilde? After all, he is now my loyal lord."
Marquis Garcia was unmoved at all: "No one knows my brother better than me, he wouldn't be so stupid."
"Why? The Black Cavalry Army is now the biggest unstable factor in the northern border. Don't you really doubt that your brother wants to take this opportunity to eradicate the threat of the Black Cavalry Army?"
Marquis Garcia had an extremely complicated look on his face, and sighed, "You won't understand."
Marquis Dawson frowned, then shook his head and said, "It's fine if you don't want to say it. However, I can't reveal the name of the adult who promised me yet."
Marquis Garcia sneered: "You think I won't be able to guess if you don't tell me
The once colorful tiger has now become a mustache dog who only dares to hide in the shadows! This kind of family can even betray their own race, you still believe in their promise
What a big joke! "
Marquis Dawson's face changed, as if he was deeply hurt by Marquis Garcia's words, and then roared angrily:
"So what? I don't trust them, do I still believe in your St. Hilde family
We dwarves have served you for thousands of years, but have you ever looked at us
Maybe the establishment of a dwarf nation is just a joke in your eyes, but this is the highest mission that our ancestors have fought for for generations! "
Marquis Garcia hesitated for a moment, but still didn't say some words.
I saw him wave his hand in despair, and ordered: "Let him go."
"Lord Marquis!" The angry officers were naturally astonished.
"Let him go!" Marquis Garcia emphasized again.
"yes."
Marquis Dawson obviously didn't expect that the other party would let him go like this.
Marquis Garcia's cold voice sounded again:
"Fran Dawson, I'm not going to kill you today.
Kill you, maybe you will become a hero of the dwarves.
So, I will let you live.
Live with the notoriety of a traitor.
At the same time, see for yourself what kind of joke your so-called dream of establishing a dwarf nation is.
get out! "
Marquis Dawson's face turned blue and then red, and finally he stumbled away under the contemptuous eyes of everyone in the black cavalry.
At this time, shouts from the soldiers of the East were constantly coming from above the canyon, and the content was naturally to ask the black cavalry to put down their weapons immediately and surrender from the valley.
The current situation of the Black Cavalry is indeed extremely bad.
The narrow terrain of Shadow Canyon made the cavalry huddle together, making it impossible to organize a charge.
Moreover, the boulders that fell just now cut off the Black Cavalry's formation. Except for a small number of troops that fell behind, most of the soldiers were blocked by layers of boulders.
If you want to move forward, don't think about it, the army in the east must have set up layers of obstacles at the entrance of the valley ahead, just waiting for the black cavalry to rush over and smash their heads.
Facing such a desperate situation, Marquis Garcia remained calm.
He stretched out his hand to recruit a senior officer, and ordered in a low voice: "Knight Logue, go back immediately, turn over the boulders blocking the way, gather the troops behind, and lead them back the same way, rush out This canyon…”
"Master Marquis! What about you?"
"I can't go anymore." Marquis Garcia pressed on the wound on his waist. Although it had been bandaged briefly, black blood was still oozing out.
"No! Lord Marquis, I will escort you away..."
Marquis Garcia stared, stopped the Logue knight, and said firmly: "I will not abandon the Black Cavalry. But you must go. It doesn't matter if I die. The Black Cavalry must leave a little fire behind." .”
The Logue knight wanted to say more, but Marquis Garcia didn't give him a chance at all, and roared in a low voice:
"Shut up! Listen to me!
After you lead the rear army to retreat, don't get entangled with the eastern border army, and don't go back to the northern border.
Going north and bypassing the Shadow Mountains, it takes a little more time to reach Silvermoon City.
When you get there, you find Viscount Angelet and ask him a question—
Should the Lord of the North be named St. Hilde
If he says yes, you owe him your allegiance.
Otherwise, you will kill him and return to Cold Winter City to serve the Duke of St. Hilde.
have you understood? "
"Yes!" Knight Logue nodded quickly.
He seemed to want to say something more, but was stopped by Marquis Garcia's sharp eyes.
"Let's go!"
Knight Logue had no choice but to kneel on one knee, saluted Marquis Garcia solemnly, and then left with red eyes.
Marquis Garcia waited for the Logue knights to go far away before he summoned his officers and asked, "Do any of you want to surrender?"
"Never surrender!"
Everyone said loudly without hesitation.
"Okay!" A smile appeared on Marquis Garcia's face, "Only the black cavalry who died in battle, not the black cavalry who surrendered!
Order the whole army, dismount, move forward, and kill! "
woo—
Amidst the ear-piercing sound of bugles, the battle broke out suddenly.
As the most elite army in the Northern Territory, and even in the entire Glorious Empire, the Black Cavalry Army definitely does not lack the courage to fight to the death.
Even though they have lost their greatest advantage at this time, the will to fight that broke out in the desperate situation is still eye-catching.
Led by a group of officers, the soldiers of the Black Cavalry Army all gave up their horses and rushed to the valley entrance on foot, overcoming the barriers set up by the eastern border army, shouting the name of the Lord of Radiance, and launched an attack on the enemy.
"Let the arrow!"
The arrow suddenly became the protagonist in the sky, and it was densely packed like dark clouds, shuttling back and forth.
However, such a rain of arrows could not frighten the black cavalry army at all. They rushed out of the narrow valley like locusts and rushed towards the positions of the eastern border army.
Blood flowed wantonly, and corpses were scattered on the ground.
The battle at Taniguchi has become extremely tragic from the very beginning.
The corpses of the Black Cavalry soldiers quickly rose up at the mouth of the valley, forming terrifying hills one after another.
The strong smell of blood wafted in the air, it was almost suffocating.
The army of the Eastern Territory, who originally thought they were sure of victory, began to feel chills in their hearts and trembled.
It seems that those who rush forward bravely are not human beings at all,
But a group of crazy beasts!
