Release that Witch Chapter 114: Thunder
The vast stronghold coalition slowly walks on the road to Border Town's.
Forefront of the team is the Knight group consisting of stronghold Six major family. From the armor and dress of each Knight, you can see the difference in the strength of the family they belong to. There is no doubt that the most eye-catching are the Knights of His Majesty Duke Ryan. His Majesty's mount are short-tail horses from Kingdom Capital. They are good at long-distance running and have a size larger than other horses. The Knight sitting on horseback is even more powerful. Their armor is uniformly built by the stronghold “Hammer and Dragonfang” smithy. The silvery thick chest is carved with a huge lion head, and the shoulder armor is two. The head of a wolf seemed to growl with his mouth open. The cloak on the back is embroidered with delicate patterns, and a red silk ribbon is tied around the waist.
These Knights aren't the same. After the end of Months of Demons each year, they are responsible for leaving the city to clear the remaining Evil Beast to ensure smooth roads. Everyone has accumulated a wealth of combat experience. As far as singles are concerned, they are not much worse than the Kingdom Capital Knight group, but the number is slightly insufficient. Of course, with the power of Duke, a 150-strong elite Knight unit It's already an amazing expense.
Duke Ryan looked at this sharp division with satisfaction. There is no doubt that with their power, no one can stop him from Western Region.
The mercenaries are walking in the middle of the team. Their equipment is inferior by comparison. Most of them are wearing some old chain mail or plate armor, lacking guards or no helmets. Some people are only equipped with cheap leather armor, weapon is also various. They were scattered along the road, in twos and threes together, laughing loudly as they walked, it seemed that this trip was not to fight, but just a spring tour.
At the end of the line was the freemen forced by the feudal lord. They dragged a wheelbarrow carrying food and tents and slowly followed the mercenaries. The difference in marching speed makes this team of about 1,500 people very long. The front Knight unit needs to stop from time to time, waiting for the followers to follow.
"Sir," Count Elk Hill Thai.Dmitry pulls the reins, letting himself and Duke go side by side. "We are a half day away from Border Town. If it is successful, we should be able to arrive at the dog time (4 pm). When the troops are rest Overnight, wait for The next day to act in the morning, or immediately attack feudal lord castle? "
"Do you still want to sleep in the wild?" Duke laughed. "At night I think we should lie on the big bed of the castle, not the wet mud. Of course, the royal family's face still has to take care of Yes, after arriving at Border Town, I will send envoy first to persuade him to surrender.
Count Honeysuckle walked slightly forward, he turned back, "Knight walked for a day, people and horses are exhausted, wouldn't it be appropriate to attack directly? After all, Roland Wimbledon relies on his miner security After the whole Months of Demons, I think we should be cautious. "
"Haha, it ’s fine if others do n’t know, do n’t you even know the bottom line of Evil Beast's? My old friend. They are really terrible when they are in the wild, they act swiftly, their strength is amazing, but if there is a wall, it ’s great. Most Evil Beasts are only targets. They are after all beasts. "Count Elk shrugged." I'm surprised he can build a city wall so quickly, but by this alone, the total impossible can resist my Knight, aren't they? Brain idiot. "
"That's right. And I also received a message from north," Duke Ryan said casually, "This year's Hermes has been attacked by a large number of Evil Beast Hybrid's, and the new Holy City has almost fallen. It is not clear why, but it seems this year Evil Beast are all heading for Holy City, Western Region is just a few missing fish. "
As the master of Western Region's, his eyes are not only focused on this remote place. Each big town has eyeliners that have been set up for many years, continuously passing back the latest information for him. The fierce battle of Northern Lands is not the focus. In the previous few days, he received a secret report from Steep Cliff City. new King Timothy and Queen of Clear Water Garcia had a fierce battle at Eagle City in southern region. According to the previous news, the Timothy team should be a month later. To reach Eagle City.
The letter did not mention the battle, but only recorded that when Timothy returned from Steep Cliff City, thousands of troops were left, and he was even unable to block the road as he came. Others saw the Eagle City ignite a sky-high fire, and the rising black smoke column was almost flush with the clouds. The residents of the surrounding towns witnessed this wonder.
No doubt, whether or not Queen of Clear Water died in the hands of Timothy, such a terrible loss is a serious blow to new King. This secret letter made Duke Ryan rush, and sent multiple batches of relatives to Kingdom Capital and eastern region overnight, hoping to understand the current situation of Timothy. If the battle of the two kings had the opportunity to destroy the new King's unsettled regime, he would never mind filling another torch on the fire.
If you want to be king by yourself, now is almost the best opportunity. The soldiers of north are buried under the feet of Holy City. Just after the battle in the south, obviously you need to lie down and lick the wounds, eastern region and Kingdom Capital will not be mentioned, I am afraid they will be out of breath in a few years. As long as you pull a group of people to eat north, you can tear Greycastle in half. By that time, his territory and population were comparable to Kingdom of Eternal Winter, the most north on the mainland, and his strength could compete with Greycastle southeast.
And he, Osmond Ryan, will be the first King in this land.
Thinking of this, Duke smiled proudly. He hoped that after ending this farce today, he would immediately take the prince on his way home tomorrow. Fortunately, three days later, he could welcome the good news returned by his cronies in the castle.
When the sun gradually tilted westward and was approaching the top of the mountains, Ryan saw the looming outline of the Border Town castle ... and a group of densely packed figures outside small town.
"Father, Master Duke," Ryan Dmitry, who was in charge of leading the team, rushed back to report, "Those in front should be guards of Fourth Prince. They all hold weapon, and they don't seem to welcome us."
"That's fine, at least we don't have to bother to go to the castle to ask him," Count Elk laughed. "Go tell the Knight guys and reduce the speed. It's still far from the charge."
"Yes, father," Ryan led.
Duke Ryan raised telescope and watched the opponent formation. The team in the mirror seemed very strange. They held a strange weapon, and people stood next to each other in dense rows. If you say that weapon is a long gun, you can't see the tip, and the grip is too short. And the array put out by the other side is too counterintuitive ... Isn't such a thin line of defense just for a punch?
This confuses Duke a bit. Even if the prince has no common sense, he still has Knight and personal guard, and impossible will accompany him? After thinking for a while, Duke decided to let the mercenaries take the lead, and the Knight troops temporarily stopped in the charge acceleration area to stand by to see what the prince was doing.
Of course, the envoy for persuasion must be sent. Duke Ryan recruited a personal guard, "You go and tell the prince that I have no intention of hurting him, but the decree of King Timothy Wimbledon has arrived and I have to comply. Now if I drop weapon and surrender, he will not be harmed in any way, I will be treated as a prince Escorted him back to Kingdom Capital. "
The assembly of the army is a very slow process. The Knights are gradually in place, and the mercenaries are still slowly gathering. At this moment, Duke Ryan saw four flashes of fire flicker on the opponent's position, and then turned into a smoke. He frowned, thinking he had read it wrong, and was about to take a closer look with telescope. A series of thunderous sounds suddenly exploded in his ear! (To be continued.)
