The Amber Sword - 1485

Thinking of this, Matthew couldn’t help sighing. He shook his head and stopped thinking about things that were too far away from him. All he had to consider was how to attack the Tonigel’s defense line. The nobles had already captured three or four villages, but they had not gained much. The Tonigels retreated to the south bank of the Alder River to build a defense line. And they followed here. Among them, Baron Goldham from Blackwater Bay walked the fastest. The previous news said that he had captured Emden not far to the west here, and it was estimated that he would be heading towards Horta. The attacking fronts converged.

“Hurry up!” Matthew rubbed his stiff hands and shouted to his men: “Capture the manor in front, do whatever you want. The women and property are all yours, but move faster. , Don’t ask anyone to preempt it!”

The knights suddenly promised, but the infantrymen remained indifferent. Those things didn’t fall on them anyway. They dragged their steps forward in this kind of weather, or they could not get up again when they fell to nowhere. It came because of the swords of the knight masters hanging over his head.

In this mood, these stiff soldiers finally landed on the beach. The knights first let the archers shoot a wave of rockets into the forest, but it is not ideal in such a weather. The temperature is too low and the bow arms are brittle. The fire was not easy to ignite, and many bowstrings were broken in a volley. This wave of arrows can only be said to be in vain.

But Matthew didn’t care about this. He immediately let the infantry advance into the forest in a combat formation. The Tonigel’s defense line was looming outside the manor, and the opponent had a well-maintained magic crossbow, which was equally effective in such a climate. It produces lethality in a place two hundred steps away, and people can’t help but condemn Tonigel’s extravagance.

Sure enough, the sound of bowstrings rang from the front, and several infantrymen walking in the front row fell down in response, and the team immediately caused a commotion. When Matthew saw this, he cursed secretly, but he was familiar with this situation and immediately ordered the supervising team to step forward. After stabbing a few staggering soldiers, the team reorganized.

Matthew knew very well in his heart that the number of enemies was not many. This was their biggest disadvantage. As long as they were steady and unshakable, the other party would not be able to resist—they won in the previous few battles. .

The Tonigel people really started to retreat, and now they still have a deep defense, but their troops are far from enough. And when the opponent loses even the space to retreat, it’s time for a real showdown.

Matthew was confident about it. He saw the somewhat tattered fir-collar emblem flag in the forest retreating. In the end, he didn’t know what happened. Perhaps the flag bearer was killed. The flag shook and fell down. .

“Tonigal’s rats are back again!” The rebels finally cheered, or rather rejoiced: “They dare not make us enemies at all, chase them and kill them!”

In the entire battlefield led by Mintai, this situation is repeated.

The sudden rebels almost defeated the unprepared Mintai-led local defenders. Except for sporadic resistance, in most places, the Tonigal people continued to retreat, withdraw and even were wiped out.

Matthew turned his head and saw that the flag of the nobles of the South was also erected in the direction of Wayland. A flag representing the occupation was being erected on the south side of the Old River Beach. The progress of the noble army began to speed up, or rather Tonygel Human resistance is getting weaker and weaker.

“It looks like we are going to win.”

He thought so in his heart.

But at this time, the noble flag that had just been erected on the hill in the direction of Weiland Ferry suddenly collapsed suddenly.

Matthew happened to see this scene. He saw a knight rushing up the hillside from the other side and slashing the flag bearer from the crowd.

Matthew looked at all this almost in astonishment. That must be the cavalry of the Tonigel people, but why do they still have a new force here at this time? Instead of retreating backwards, they launched an impact on the coalition front?

Are these people crazy?

He watched one knight after another appear on the hill. The poor private soldiers of the nobleman who had occupied the hill were killed without leaving a piece of armor. Those knights contemptuously threw the chopped noble flag on the ground.

Then another flag appeared on the top of the mountain.

What it first exposed was just the tip of a spear with the silver ornamentation of the sacred lily of Eruin carved on the tip of the spear, and then the whole flag jumped up from the back of the hill.

Matthew actually narrowed his eyes.

That is not the battle flag of the White Lion Guard.

Nor is it the heraldic flag with a fir collar–

It was a silver, square flag waving in the wind. The flag was drawn with spike-like textures. The red ribbon was surrounded by the silver star and the white moon. Under the star and the moon, was the holy emblem of the Corcovado royal silver lily. .

That is exactly the star and moon lily flag that represents Eruin.

Matthew’s heart jumped hard.

He quickly bit off the grass roots in his mouth and threw it on the ground. Turning around and shouting at the knights under his men: “The whole team, the whole team, let the spearman move forward!”

A row of knights appeared on the hill, then the second row and the third row, they lined up neatly and rushed down the hill.

The silver armor gleamed under the daylight, like a silver wave, directly over the noble private soldiers who were panicking and fleeing down the hill.

In fact, there is another nobleman’s army from here, but Matthew looked at the hapless move, and realized that they could not help themselves, nor could they help him in any way. He can only pray that those damn idiots don’t help himself.

“These Tonigel people must be crazy…”

Matthew’s mind was messed up at this moment. He finally realized who the opponent was. It was the white lion knight of the Tonigel people. They must have been killed from Horta.

But they dared to attack the coalition on the front line of the Old River.

The noble knight not far from him finally reacted and quickly turned his spearmen around and formed the team, but it was too late, the river beach shook, and there was already a silver wave in the distance.

Some people began to scream and retreat. The thin line of remaining spearmen couldn’t stop the terrible army at all, and they were crushed. Matthew saw with his own eyes that the noble knight was stabbed off the horse by a shot, and then the skull was crushed. The eyeballs mixed with white brains splashed out, and then fell in a cloud of snow.

Their opponents have no mercy, and they do not keep their hands because they are nobles. This is completely inconsistent with the rules of the Eruin war. Even the undead of Madara will try to leave alive the noble knights in the hope that they can be exchanged later. Get a huge ransom.

These people must be demons.

Matthew couldn’t help shivering. For the first time, he felt that his guts were not enough on the battlefield. He almost had the subconscious behavior of retreating at that moment, but the experience accumulated on the battlefield over the years made him sober. Come here.

At this moment, we must not retreat, retreat is death.

Suddenly several wizards appeared in the sky. These Sassard wizards in blue robes flew across the sky above him, and rushed straight to the white lion knights who appeared suddenly-it was the Bugga! Fortunately, Matthew felt that he was saved, but he had some doubts in his heart. When did Bougainian wizards have been monitoring the battlefield in his direction, the silver people’s reaction was too quick, and they moved out. Just four people.

He has been with the noble coalition all the way from letting Denel to this point. He has never seen so many Buga wizards appearing on the battlefield together. The most time they were dispatched was when they fought against the Valkyrie knights. On the battlefield, it is said that the battle was simply earth-shattering, but it was a pity that he just missed the battle.

The scene where the four silver wizards joined forces made Matthew’s blood boil. Although he knew that the other party did not look down on him as a worthless noble knight lord like Eruin, he still felt that being able to fight side by side with these powerful existences. A worthwhile trip.

The white lion knight has completely torn apart the scattered formation of the noble lord spearman in front, like a hot knife cutting butter, without any hindrance. They continued to move forward, and then swallowed the guys who turned and fled, leaving almost nothing alive, and blood was already flowing on the beach in an instant.

The remaining knights of that noble lord roared to greet them, but what awaited them was about the same end. The legendary knights were more terrifying than imagined, and they were torn to pieces almost instantly.

Matthew has never seen such a bloody fight. It is said that only in the few battlefields of the second holy war, the two sides who killed the red eye are entangled in order to achieve a loss ratio of 70% to 80%. In the battle of I, every soldier who experienced such a nightmare was called a survivor of the long war.

His heart almost trembles with the sound of the opponent’s horseshoes, but the wizard above his head finally gave him some courage, and asked him to force his men to stand firm. Perhaps the deserters in front gave them the miserable end. The insensitive aristocratic private soldiers were a little excited. At last no one in Matthew’s team turned and retreated. Although the infantry trembles and the formation is crooked, this counter-charge triple spear array always gives them a little bit of psychology. comfort.

Matthew panted heavily, trying to calm his nervousness. Fortunately, his military experience in the Black Rose War finally calmed him a little bit.
