Chapter 15 The First Battle

"Lord Karl, we can't resist it, the other side is too powerful!" A conscript said bitterly with a pale face. She didn't want to die, and she didn't want to face the lances of the knights.

"Soldier, if you turn around, we will die, but if we don't flee, we may survive. And who says we can't resist it? Do you remember the wooden piles I asked you to dig? That is the barrier to protect us. As long as we hold the exit, we

It’s not that I can’t resist it, and I’ve also prepared a trump card, I can guarantee that I will bring you victory!” Karl shouted, his voice seemed to have a magical power, which made the soldiers feel slightly relieved for a moment.

Come down.

"The trump card? What is that?" Many people expressed doubts. Facing a team of more than ten knights, what trump card can be used?

But they didn't ask, maybe they hoped that there was something, and sometimes it was more important to keep hope than to know what it was.

In such a life and death dilemma, they only need a little spiritual sustenance and hope.

"Well, now everyone returns to their positions and prepares to defend! Give me those axle-loaded vehicles to form a vehicle formation. This will be our line of defense!" Karl ordered.

"Yes!" Everyone quickly dispersed, staring at the knights in the distance in fear.



"Ruibo, is this the place?" The voice of the middle-aged man came from deep under the bottle-style helmet.

"Yes, Lord Meno, I spotted them in some places ahead. According to my observation, they only had about twenty or thirty unarmored light infantry as a defensive force.

"Twenty or thirty light infantry? Why are there so few? Is this a trap?" Meno was a little surprised.

"No sir, I can confirm that it is not a trap. According to my observation, there is indeed no ambush force there, and I can clearly see those axle-loaded trucks, which are full of grain." Ribo said quickly.

"Really..." Meno thought for a moment. He didn't know why, but he always felt a little uneasy, but if Ribo was right, this mission seemed to be completed very easily.

Twenty or thirty unarmored light infantry couldn't stop the knights' charge at all. They could easily capture this place if they wanted to. It wouldn't be a problem to burn the food or transport it away.

"In that case, let's start taking action, and we have to do it quickly. According to what you said, although they let you go for a while, there is no guarantee that something is wrong later. We have to take this opportunity to get rid of you before they call for reinforcements.

If they can be eliminated successfully, Ribo will be considered your great contribution, and I believe that the earl will not be stingy in rewarding you." Meno made up his mind, and at the same time he did not forget to give Ribo a blank check.

Ruibo was overjoyed. It would definitely be a great honor if he could be rewarded by the Earl.

"Knights of Lorraine Castle, follow me and wipe out those damn Rensi people and create our glory." Meno raised his lance high and shouted.

"For glory!" The Lorraine knights also became excited.

The fifteen knights marched in the direction pointed by Ribo in a mighty manner. Because the place was very empty and the grass blocked out some sounds, their actions made no sound.

The riding speed was very fast, and after about a quarter of an hour, they could vaguely see the people stationed there.

The leader Meno raised his right hand, and all the knights of Lorraine stopped and formed a formation.

"It seems that the Rensi people are well prepared. They have indeed discovered that you are tricking Ribo." Meno chuckled lightly when he saw the soldiers who had already gathered together.

"But it seems that they are in a hurry, and there are no reinforcements or ambushes. There are only a few people in total. Let me see...well, there are exactly thirty people." Meno squinted his eyes and counted, and then said.

"They can't even hold the spears and forks firmly in their hands. I'm afraid they just woke up from bed." Another knight joked.

"Ha, it looks like this. The poor guys may have just woken up and fell asleep, but this time they fell asleep and never woke up again." Meno said disdainfully.

"Charge, Lord Meno, let us get rid of them." The knight asked.

"Okay, get into charge formation and charge with me!" Meno shouted, clamped his legs together, the horse neighed under his crotch, and rushed forward with Meno on his back, his spear was held flat, the tip of the spear was in the moonlight

The cold light is reflected in the sunlight.

The same goes for other knights. Ribo is also in the team. They are covered in chain armor, which makes them like a fortress. The chill brought by the spear in their hands is heart-shaking.

"charge!"



"Lord Karl, the knights are charging!" Kruger said tremblingly, almost throwing away his spear with shaking hands.

"I'm not blind after seeing it!" Karl growled.

"Our soldiers are scared," Kruger continued.

Karl also noticed this, but he couldn't help it. Not to mention the soldiers, even he was scared. The mountains of armor and the spears like the reaper's scythe of death were suffocating him. This was no game.

, when you die, you really die.

"His grandma, if I knew that I could encounter such a thing even if I was trying to save food, I wouldn't have come at all!" Karl regretted a little in his heart, and he who rarely used swear words couldn't help but cursed secretly.

"Try to appease the soldiers. We have no way out this time." Karl had no other good solution. He could only say this. He was praying in his heart that the horse nails would work.

Looking at the Lorraine knights who were getting closer and closer, Karl's hand holding the sword was wet with sweat. Fortunately, no soldiers had dropped their spears and ran away, otherwise Karl would not have dared to imagine that a soldier running away would bring

The blood collapsed like a collapse.



"Lord Meno, they have some wooden stakes blocking us." As the distance got closer, the knights also saw the wooden stakes scattered around the station.

"Ha, isn't there a large entrance and exit? I have to say that those wooden piles are indeed a bit annoying, but they don't affect us. We go through the entrance and exit, and their axle-loaded trucks can't stop us, haha." Meno sneered.

.

After hearing Meno's order, the knights also accelerated their speed and rushed towards the entrance and exit.

"Here we come!" Karl stared at the entrance and exit, where a large number of horse nails were buried.

"Xixuxu~"

In an instant, the painful wails of the war horses resounded through the sky. The war horses of the Lorraine knights seemed to have stepped on something. One by one, they stood up and suddenly lost control, throwing the knights who were still a little confused on their backs off their backs. What's worse,

He also stepped on the knights beneath him a few times. Even though they were protected by armor, the knights were still kicked to the point of being dizzy.

The heavy armor made it impossible for them to stand up for a while after falling.

"Now, everyone, come on board!" Karl was overjoyed and greeted quickly.

Seeing the knights fall to the ground one by one, the light infantry were stunned, and then rushed forward with howls and screams.

"A miracle, this is simply a miracle!"

They didn't know what happened, but when they saw the knights all falling down when they wanted to charge towards their commander, they didn't know how to express this except a miracle.

Under such hints, the soldiers who were already ignorant in their thinking greatly increased their confidence.

"Ahhhh, you bitch, get out of here!"

A knight was pinned down by several soldiers. The stinky smell from not taking a shower for a long time penetrated into the knight's nostrils through the armor, making them almost vomit.

But it was obvious that he couldn't break free. The armor itself was very heavy, and with someone pressing on him, he couldn't move.

"Ahhh!"

At this time, Karl heard a scream, and a knight stood up. Since there were no soldiers to control him, he slashed fiercely with his long sword, killing an approaching soldier casually.

"Whoa!"

With another strike of the sword, the unarmored soldier fell down. Facing him was like chopping melons and vegetables.

Two people died in succession. The conscripts, who were originally full of confidence, suddenly became frightened and froze in place one by one.

"Damn it!" Karl gritted his teeth. He realized that he still underestimated these knights. In this era, knights who have received good military education and have high military quality are really not comparable to ordinary soldiers. In this case, the knights

He was actually able to fight back.

"Everyone, control the knights near you, leave this to me!" Karl shouted, he must take care of the other party, otherwise there will be big problems.

Carr held the long sword in his hand, assumed the bull position, and slowly approached the opponent.

Seeing Karl's actions, the knight also assumed a corresponding posture, and for a moment the two of them seemed to be in a duel.

"Clang"

A crisp sound sounded, and the long swords of both sides bounced off each other, causing both of them to take a few steps back.

Karl's palms relaxed, and he felt a sense of numbness, which made him extremely uncomfortable.

"Go to hell!"

The opponent was reluctant and rushed over, but because he was wearing heavy armor, his movements seemed a bit stiff. Heavy armor was obviously not a good choice in a one-on-one duel.

Karl didn't answer, just stared at the opponent's sword.

"Now!"

Karl yelled, lifting the scene in his hand upwards and turning around.

"Clang!"

The opponent's helmet was directly knocked away and fell to the ground, making a sound.

Looking at Karl's long sword against his neck, cold sweat flowed from Meno's forehead.

"A beautiful fight, you won." Meno swallowed and said slowly.

"Lay down your weapons! Let them do the same!"

Karl shouted, pointing to the suppressed knights. He did not choose to kill the opponent. Generally speaking, the opponent's knights would not be killed in battle. It is more cost-effective to exchange these knights for ransom than to kill them directly, and killing them is more cost-effective.

It will offend a lot of people.
