Lord of the Oasis Chapter 35: .Introduction to Mo Ling 2

Kant's face was solemn.

Riding on his own warhorse, holding the palm of the "deterring the enemy", all with water stains.

It's sweat.

Because of the desert robbers who went out to investigate, they have come back sporadically at this time.

One person is even missing.

The whereabouts are unknown, which is not a good sign.

Equivalent to death.

This is already bad news.

And the information brought back by these desert robbers is even more worrying.

The infantrymen who have assembled and lined up in the streets all began to whisper.

They were a little flustered.

"Calm down."

Kant's voice suddenly sounded.

His eyes were like eagle eyes, swept across the commotional troops, and shouted loudly: "Only cowards flee, and the Swadians are never afraid!"

The news of the arrival of 50 squire knights has spread throughout the oasis.

After hearing this news, the infantrymen beside Kant's face were already a little pale.

They are not NPC data, but living people.

There is fear.

There is also excitement.

There is a lot of fighting spirit.

I was also frightened.

What's more, they found that they were facing 50 heavily armed heavy cavalry.

Both legs became a little weak.

Because they understand the horrors of heavy cavalry.

The Kingdom of Swadia was founded on the basis of cavalry.

The rampant, invincible heavy cavalry on the battlefield is the foundation of the Swadia Kingdom's hegemony, and it is the capital that deter enemy countries from easily offending the frontier.

With their group of low-level troops, in front of 50 heavy cavalry, they are just cannon fodder.

Even if they were equipped with long pole weapons like spears and scythes.

To know.

Even the Rhodok Kingdom, with all the troops equipped with shields and spears, had defeated the troops of the Swadia Kingdom several times in the mountains, but they did not dare to confront these heavily armed cavalry in the plains.

50 Swadian heavy cavalry can easily pierce 200 infantry troops.

If there are no long pole weapons, even 500 people can't stop these heavy cavalry, and they can only be crushed in the plains.

Kant's 165 infantry soldiers are only low-level troops.

50 heavy cavalry, already equal to the chisel that can break their psychological defense line.

Not even 50 heavy cavalry, even 50 ordinary cavalry, such as light cavalry like desert robbers, can easily defeat and wipe them out with proper tactics.

Kant also understood.

With his brows furrowed, he asked in a condensed voice, "They are from the Principality of Lions?"

"Yes." The scouting desert robber replied.

After all, only the Principality of Male Lions borders the Naron Desert.

Taking a deep breath, Kant's face was solemn, and there was a bit of haze in his eyes.

He thought of several bad situations.

Because of his embarrassing status in the Principality of Lions, Kant couldn't help but grit his teeth: "Did I choose this place as my territory, these guys still won't let me go?"

Some nobles in the country do not want Kant, the youngest son of the Duke, to be alive.

"Sir, what should I do?"

These Swadian infantrymen all looked at Kant with panic in their eyes.

Different from gnolls.

Those are just primitive, ignorant, murderous races.

They might not be able to fight hard.

And these 50 heavy cavalry, it seems that the number is small, but it is a real army.

Fully armed.

Well trained.

Well equipped.

A terrifying force capable of easily destroying "Dehrim".

They...

I can't do it all!

"Remember, Swadians are never cowards."

Kant's voice was heavy, echoing in everyone's ears.

Because he knows that anyone can panic at this time, and as a lord, the Swadia Kingdom reflects itself in this world, and must not panic.

He wants to stabilize the military.

"Recruits and farmers blocked the streets."

Kant held up the "strength of deterring the enemy" high, and the flag of the golden lion on a red background was fluttering in the wind.

And his deployment was quickly communicated: "All militiamen are responsible for the roof of the house, using hunting crossbows to snipe the enemy!"

"Understood!"

Hearing Kant's order, the infantry responded loudly.

Although there is still panic on his face, at least the morale has recovered a little with Kant's deployment.

When "Dehrim" was built, the buildings were arranged to form a street, and the same crowded buildings also formed the specifications of the current fortress, which can be guarded against danger.

At least you don't need to face the cavalry head-on on the open field.

Deployment is complete.

The street entrances on the left and right sides, 10 meters wide, are already densely packed with infantry.

At the front are the Swadian recruits. The 2-meter spears lie flat, and cooperate with the scythes of the peasants behind to form a primitive and rough phalanx of spears.

On the roof on the side, militiamen armed with hunting crossbows are also preparing.

Not only shoot, disrupt the formation of the enemy's attack, but also jump down to maintain the defense line when the street entrance is dangerous.

The turmoil in Calradia has made these infantrymen familiar with war.

Everything is ready.

Even in the grocery store, people from the Zivadin caravan stopped here.

The caravan leader, wearing chainmail and holding a flanged hammer, had a solemn expression on his face. He was standing behind Kant with his 6 caravan guards and 12 sentries, waiting and obeying orders.

They intend to defend together.

"Lord Kant, Zhivadin's caravan is willing to join this battle and obey your arrangements."

The caravan leader is very forthright.

Kant nodded with a slight smile on his face: "Thank you very much."

Although the Caravan Guards and Sentinels are both low-level units of Level 2 and Level 1, they are at least a new force. It is of course excellent to be able to act as reinforcements at this critical moment.

At this time, Kant naturally did not choose.

Time ticks by.

The sun sets.

The evening light struggles.

A faint galaxy has appeared in the sky.

"A familiar scene."

Kant squinted slightly, thinking about 8 days ago.

It seems that it was at this time that with the help of Rowan and those cavalry, he annihilated the gnoll tribe that occupied the Sentinel Oasis.

It was a lively battle.

But also at this time.

Instead, he's become a poor **** guarding a sentry oasis, waiting for others to attack.

"This feeling is really bad."

Kant clenched his fists.

Waiting quietly for the final battle, Kant heard the exclamation of the Swadian militiaman on the watchtower.

He looked up at the top of the tower, frowned and asked, "What did you find?"

"Big... my lord."

The militiaman stuck his head out, pointed to the south and said, "They're here!"

There was a slight disturbance from the troops on both sides of the street~IndoMTL.com~ Apparently everyone understood that the enemy had arrived.

"They" naturally refers to the 50 heavy cavalry.

However, there was an abnormal calm on everyone's faces at this time. Even those Swadian peasants had a deep determination in their eyes to fight to the death to protect their homeland.

If they fail, they will be completely disqualified to survive.

And on Kant's retina, the system prompt box also appeared suddenly.

[Ding… Temporary task release]

[Temporary task: Forming a coalition]

[Reward: Arrow Rain Cover (500 Vicia Marksmen) × 3 waves]

[Introduction: In the dim sky, there is danger. Thankfully, an elite force arrived. You can choose to ally with it to get through this difficult time. ]

Temporary assignments.

Kant quickly read the introduction, his face stiff.

"Form a coalition?" He was quite puzzled.

Also surprised.

The system introduction said he was ambiguous, but he also sensed the danger.

Because this is a warning from the system.

"Danger breeds in the dim sky..." Kant said softly.

At the same time, he looked at the next sentence: "There is an elite army coming..."

His eyes narrowed slightly.

"Choose an alliance..."

These key sentences made Kant's heart beat faster.

He seemed to have thought of something.

At the same time, there was a commotion at the entrance of the street, as well as the sound of hurried horses' hooves, as if someone had returned.

Kant turned his head to look.

It's the missing desert robber.
