Gawain looks simple and reckless, but in fact he is not stupid at all. He knows that if he wants to win the melee of knights, he must pay attention to strategy. Rushing into the enemy's formation and killing them from the beginning is definitely the stupidest way.
, no matter how hard one person fights, it is impossible to beat hundreds of people. In this kind of group fight, the role of personal ability is weakened to the minimum.
Therefore, Gawain changed his previous style of being in the limelight. From the very beginning of the battle, he wandered around the periphery like a thief. Instead of stalking, he just fought guerrillas. Anyway, he defeated each one one by one, and he would never be in the limelight.
Originally, Gawain had a good idea, but when he got to the arena, he realized that other people were not stupid. There were many people who thought like him, and Gawain didn't get much advantage from it. But after Arthur exposed all this
Things changed. Those people who were as determined as Gawain to take advantage of Arthur saw them, like vicious dogs seeing bones, and rushed towards Arthur crazily, as if they wanted to eat Arthur alive.
Gawain was finally able to keep his composure. Although he followed Feng in beating up Arthur, he still hung around outside, just not being in the limelight. But when he saw the strange behavior of the two Senord knights, Gawain could no longer sit back and watch.
!
Originally, everyone was having a fun time fighting each other with blunt weapons, and it was in line with the rules. Even Gawain, the chicken thief, was within the rules. The melee itself encouraged the knights to use their own methods, and strategy itself was also a type of strength. But this
The two knights are different, they are cheating!
Although there are no specific rules for melee fighting, even in future unrestricted fighting, there are rules that prohibit attacks on the crotch and back of the head, not to mention knights fighting in melee. In short, heavy weapons and sharp tools are absolutely not allowed in the duel field.
But Gawain could see clearly that the weapons of these two men were more than sharp. He saw with his own eyes that a knight was slashed in the abdomen with a sword. If the sword was not unsealed, the sword would have been as sharp as a sword.
Being hit with a stick, although it will be very painful, will definitely not cause the skin to be ripped open and blood to flow out. The knight can wear armor, and can a blunt sword cut through the armor?
This is obviously a foul on their part!
More importantly, these two men were too ruthless in their attacks. They were not seeking to destroy other people's fighting power, they were just aiming to kill people, and they were very ruthless in their attacks.
To be honest, Gawain is a bit like the uninhibited knight in martial arts novels. Maybe in small aspects, he is not popular with decent people, but in big aspects, he is very upright. Of course, it is impossible to let these people go.
So before the two 'Senodians' could get close to Arthur, they were intercepted by Gawain.
But these two men were armed with sharp weapons, while Gawain was armed with blunt weapons, so they naturally had the upper hand. On the other hand, Arthur finally opened up a bit of a situation during the fight, because the number of his enemies dropped to an acceptable level.
Therefore, Arthur simply went head-to-head with them and fought several opponents with his own skills.
When the two Sennodians saw Arthur taking care of the others at an extremely fast speed, they couldn't sit still. So they no longer had any scruples and directly attacked Gawain's horse with weapons!
Gawain was originally at a disadvantage when one versus two, but now that these two were so careless, they naturally suffered a big loss. One of them accidentally injured his horse, and the horse went crazy and threw Gawain off.
After the two of them solved Gawain, they did not kill Gawain, but rode their horses towards Arthur.
Arthur had just dealt with a knight, and immediately found two knights riding towards him. Arthur didn't know that so many plots had happened before, so he took it too seriously and dealt with it at his own pace.
.
He did not retreat, but rode his horse to meet the two people who were rushing towards him. At the last moment, Arthur made an iron horse bridge on his horse, narrowly avoiding the attack of the two people. At the moment when the two people passed each other, he turned around.
Shot down one of them.
Then he stopped caring about those two people and continued fighting other enemies.
Unexpectedly, just when Arthur's attention was focused on a confronting knight, the fallen one of the two 'Cenold Knights' got up from the ground. The knight approached Arthur and fiercely
He jumped up, hugged him, and pulled him off his horse.
Arthur was thrown a little confused.
Seeing this scene, everyone in the stands stood up worriedly, including the royal family.
Arthur was knocked unconscious. The Cenoud knight who pulled Arthur down did not miss this opportunity. He raised his sword with both hands and was about to pierce Arthur's head. Fortunately, at the critical moment, Arthur rolled and dodged.
After passing the sword, the Senord knight wanted to pursue the victory, but other knights on the field came to cause trouble and blocked his pursuit.
There is no other way. The Sennod knight can only clean up these troublemakers first and hope that his companions can complete the task.
And his companion did not live up to his expectations. The Sennod knight who had not fallen off his horse had returned to his horse and charged towards Arthur again.
But at this moment, Gawain got a horse from nowhere, rode there again, and directly stopped the Senod knight.
Arthur also noticed the situation here. He could see that this knight was really helping him, but he didn't know who it was. He thought he was a Camelot knight. But even so, Arthur had no time to pay attention to this.
Knight, because other contestants came to kill again.
The two Senord knights now understood that those knights still on the field were already a burden to them. Rather than leaving them to cause trouble, it was better to clear the field quickly.
After almost three minutes, the knights were completely defeated. Even Gawain fell off his horse again in the final melee. This time the fall was too hard. Gawain got up, his head felt dizzy, and he could only
Kneel down on one knee and take a rest.
At this time, there were only two Senord knights left, and Arthur was still facing off in the duel. But the situation was still not optimistic.
The two men worked together to deal with Arthur. It was very difficult for Arthur to deal with it. The blunt sword he used could not hurt anyone at all, but the two men were holding murderous swords. It only took one stab to kill Arthur.
.
Although the martial arts of these two men are not as solid and formal as Arthur's, they are fierce and cooperate with each other tacitly. As you go back and forth, Arthur is in danger again and again, and almost loses his life several times.
Seeing Arthur being besieged by the two men, Gawain finally stood up with all his strength, joined the three men's battle tremblingly, and took the initiative to help Arthur bear part of the attack back to back with Arthur.
Even King Uther was surprised by this.
"Who helped Arthur?"
"I don't know, but no matter who it is, we should thank him." Gaius shrugged and said with a little bit of joy.
