To the Apprentice Knight in the Red Camp, being able to step onto the battlefield as a true Knight was a great honor. Having received six years of education from a clan and Imperial Military Academy since young, this group of twenty-something year old youngsters' hearts were filled with passion and passion.
When they joined Red Camp after graduation, especially the Red Camp, and saw the regular knights wearing full helmets and heavy armor s charging towards the enemy, there was no need to even mention the excitement in their hearts, they could not wait to charge upwards with light armor on their bodies. However, to upgrade from an Apprentice Knight to heavy-armored knight was not something that anyone could decide with a single sentence. Everyone was from noble clans, and the only thing that could be compared was their military merits and battle achievements!
Not only that, the attitude and character of a commander of a troop could also determine the future of this group of Apprentice Knight. If the main officer was tough and battle-oriented, he could easily gain battle merits while the main official was old-fashioned and even feared, maybe he could only be a Apprentice Knight for the rest of his life.
And Qu Feizhi and Chen Chu were the kind of main officials who were loved by many Knights. That was why the two of them were able to call each other back when they were escaping from prison.
Qu Feizhi had become a Red Camp officer at such a young age just because he dared to fight recklessly with his brain, good with tricks, and even dared to fight recklessly. He could really bring his brothers and achievement, in other words, he was an idol level figure in Phoenix City Pass.
On the other hand, Chen Chu was extremely calm. Perhaps in terms of martial skills, Chen Chu was weaker than Qu Feizhi, but the two years of experience of growing up beside the previous Prince and following the Principal of Imperial Military Academy had allowed him to see too many schemes, schemes, and sinister hearts. He could quickly grasp the key points in an extremely complex environment or message and make a calm, even grim, decision. Some people might complain about Chen Chu's actions (for example, the delayed release of water at the beginning), but Chen Chu's subordinates all admired him greatly, as everyone believed that "the person who managed to accomplish great things was not involved in small matters". In this cruel battlefield, only someone like Chen Chu had the possibility of living to the very end and obtaining victory.
Now, the Apprentice Knight s of the Red Camp had obtained the chance they dreamed of, with a power of three hundred, they were going to defeat the enemy of fifty thousand!
Those battles within the Moqiu State previously, in the eyes of these Apprentice Knight, were not real battles. They could only be considered to be fights. Fighting with the soldiers who were a little stronger than the Fire Phoenix Empire mountain robbers and bandits, and staying behind to defend, was really boring, and was completely different from their imaginations of rampaging about on the battlefield. But everyone admitted that they had killed. For a warrior, whether or not he had killed someone was a very important consideration. No matter if it was the enemy's soldiers or the citizens of the country, only those who had killed before could feel the sensation of the spear piercing through the chest or the sword slashing through the body. Only when blood gushed out from the wound and covered the entire face could one tell what the smell of blood was. Most importantly, after killing someone, there was killing intent.
Killing intent was something hard to describe, and it was an instinctive sensation. Those without killing intent, no matter how vicious they were, would only appear on the surface. They might make people feel like their faces were burning and their hands and feet were trembling, but other than that, there was nothing else. People with murderous intent were different. They were no longer vicious, but reserved and calm, never threatening people with their muscles or fists. They only used their eyes to look, and they only looked at areas such as their hearts and necks. To be targeted by such a person, there was only one feeling, and that was that one would feel cold all over and be unable to move.
Hundreds of these warriors had gathered together. With the addition of the sharp blades in their hands and the armor they wore, this imposing aura was something that the soldiers under the command of the Eleventh Tiger King and the Ten Second Tiger King could not withstand. Moreover, this was the battlefield that they wanted, the battlefield of hope, a battlefield that warriors would only experience once in their lifetime.
Just like fireworks, it might only bloom once, but it was the most magnificent end.
Xiu'er took the lead. Chen Chu and Qu Feizhi followed behind her from her left and right by about three meters, and behind the two of them were the light knights who had formed the original triangular assault formation. A huge red arrow took advantage of the night sky to tear apart the Ten Second Tiger King's army formation.
Aside from the heavy armor Infantry soldiers and the newly appeared Demonic Beast Soldier s, there was not a single infantry unit that had an advantage in fighting against the cavalry. Especially when the cavalry unit got close to them, it was simply a massacre. The thin leather armor was easily punctured through by the sharp spear as if it was piercing through a window paper. The heavy and heavy horseshoes stepped on the body of the rider, causing the bones to crack.
Many of the Moqiu Soldier s did not even have the chance to see the enemy. The Knights cut down the pillars supporting the military tent, and then threw the basins of the fire in the camp one after another towards the collapsed tent. Some of them even took out their remaining kerosene tank s from under the saddles, and fiercely smashed them into the tent, increasing the ferocity of the flames.
They were already very good at killing people.
In the time it took to drink a cup of tea, a huge hole had been torn in the array of Ten Second Tiger King s by the red arrow. The depth had almost already extended to half of the array. The warriors of the Red Camp were like Shura that appeared in the world. Everywhere he passed, his broken limbs were everywhere and wails were everywhere. The light was endless, as if they had arrived at hell on earth.
Looking at the distant tents which were lit up with flames, the Ten Second Tiger King s were so angry that their hands were trembling. He desperately commanded his troops to intercept, outflank, and surround them. However, the effect was extremely bad. Right now, what he lacked the most were his soldiers.
Although he had brought an army of 50,000 soldiers, after the siege of this period of time, the number of lightly wounded soldiers and the number of dead soldiers had reached close to 20,000. Some of the soldiers started to grumble secretly, saying that the Your Highness Tiger King was only concerned with their position and did not care about the lives of the soldiers at all.
To put it bluntly, the troops of the Ten Second Tiger King s had already been crippled by the Phoenix City Pass, and were afraid. Right now, what they were most afraid of was the Fire Phoenix Army attacking the camp at night. The side of the camp facing the Phoenix City Pass was piled with deer antlers and ropes, and the soldiers were trembling in fear every night. During the day, they had to pretend to be attacking the city, but at night, they had to be wary of attacking the camp. Even the Ten Second Tiger King could not handle such a huge mental pressure, how could they face the soldiers with swords everyday? Right now, the Fire Phoenix Knight soldiers were like heavenly soldiers descending from the sky, attacking from behind without any warning, causing the entire army, including the Ten Second Tiger King s, to near collapse.
It was a good thing that there were more people, and a good thing that there were more people.
Even if the soldiers of the Ten Second Tiger King only dared to take the handheld crossbow and shoot a few arrows outside, if they turned around and ran, it would already be a rain of arrows for the Red Camp Knight.
One after another, the bolt s that came piercing through the night sky stabbed their chests and neck, and like they were struck by a heavy hammer, they fell off their mounts. Then, they were chopped into meat paste by the rushing Moqiu Soldier. Some of the mounts were hit, causing even the riders to tumble to the ground. The sturdy warrior threw away her sword, picked up the handheld crossbow and shot continuously, knocking out the enemies one by one, until she was finally shot like a sieve by the Moqiu Soldier.
This was the first time such a large scale casualty occurred to the knights of the Flamephoenix Expeditionary Force. In the blink of an eye, they had lost more than twenty of their comrades. However, no one stopped, not even turning back. Everyone did their best to lower their bodies and increase their speed, quickly filling in the gap created by their comrades falling to the ground. They then brandished their blades and continued to hack at the enemies in front of them.
She wanted to turn around and save him, but Chen Chu's cold voice came from behind her, "Lord Xiu! "Please do your duty!"
Qu Feizhi also followed and shouted, "Only if you leave, will we be able to leave! Charge forward! "
Xiu'er's heart quivered. She steeled her heart to not listen to the screams behind him and threw out the bent knight spear in her hands. Then, she pulled out the iron flagpole beside him and waved it. This flagpole was even longer than a rider's spear. Under the Xiu'er's godly powers, the surroundings were filled with death.
Some Moqiu Soldier raised their shields to block, but normally one or two people would not be a match for Xiu'er at all. In the end, only after charging dozens of soldiers at the last breath did she barely manage to restrain this little girl who crazily brandished her iron flag.
Although the iron flagpole was easy to use, its length was too long. In addition, her opponent had limited him with a heavy shield, so she had less and less room to control. Annoyed, Xiu'er threw the flag pole out once again. She bent down from the horse, picked up one of the Moqiu Soldier and threw it at the Shield Array.
This smash enlightened her, and she no longer pursued the length of the weapon, instead, she grabbed a warhammer s and galloped towards the Shield Array. The warhammer s in his left hand struck the big shield, while the battleax in his right hand went through the gaps and slashes, causing the Shield Array to become even more chaotic. The Red Camp Knight took the chance and took another step, closing in on breaking out of the array.
But even if the handicapped veterans were to be ambushed, the combat prowess and discipline of the Black Riders still couldn't be underestimated. At the outermost perimeter of the military formation, thousands of soldiers were organized by the military officers. A total of eight rows of fully equipped hoplite, each carrying one giant shield, with the front and back rows and two rows of misaligned, eight rows of heavy shields forming a gigantic semicircle of fish scale Shield Array. From the second row, in the middle of each row was a row of soldiers who were squatting down with their spears in their hands, ready to pierce through the gaps between their spears and pierce into the bodies of the Knights. Behind them, there were countless soldiers holding handheld crossbow s. Under the light of the fire, the bolt's sharp eyes shone brightly, as if it was staring at the approaching Fire Phoenix Knight with its venomous eyes.
Chen Chu patted his horse and rushed to Xiu'er's side, panting he said, "Lord Xiu, we can't rush to the Shield Array in front!"
Xiu'er raised her head and looked at the densely packed heavy armor s in front of him, then looked back at the Red Camp Knight s who were all injured. She raised the back of her hand to wipe off the blood stains on the side of her face that no one knew, and asked loudly. Can you get out of here? "
Chen Chu frowned and did not say anything. Their current position was indeed a little awkward, they were less than three hundred meters away from breaking out of the formation, but this three hundred meter distance was like a huge chasm that separated them. There was no need to think about breaking through. This was not even 300 light cavalry, upon encountering Fire Phoenix Man-at-arms, they did not even dare to guarantee that they would definitely be able to win against the heavy infantry of Mojiao, only death awaited them. They had no choice but to choose between the left and right. But the problem was whether to choose the left or the right? By choosing the left path, he would be able to penetrate deeper into the other party's camp. The situation before him was still unknown. He chose the right path and moved along the mountain wall. If he wasn't careful, he wouldn't have been able to run.
Right at this moment, Qu Feizhi rushed over. On his left shoulder was a bolt. Qu Feizhi was the first to shout out, "Listen to me, kill to the left!"
"Why?" Xiu'er and Chen Chu asked at almost the same time.
Qu Feizhi threw the blade that had been slashed aside, he took the battleax from under the saddle and pointed the tip of his axe towards the distance, "What do you guys think is over there?"
Following the direction he was pointing towards, there were several brightly lit tents there. In the largest tent, there was a resplendent tiger flag placed beside it!
"In any case, I don't know if I can make it out alive. I might as well make a mess of things for him before I die." If I were to kill this Tiger King, this transaction of mine would not be a loss! " Qu Feizhi grinned, revealing the white tiger teeth in his mouth, adding the blood on his face, he looked like a demon.
Chen Chu's eyes also lit up, and without saying a word, he turned to look at Xiu'er. Xiu'er also laughed. "I have seen Lord Messenger of God, if I don't go and pay my respects to Your Highness Tiger King, wouldn't it be very rude?" Speaking to here, she suddenly raised her voice and shouted, "All Red Camp, listen to my command! To the left, charge with me! "
Almost all of the more than two hundred cavalrymen used their reins to trample on the stirrups at the same time. The triangular assault array took a perfect turn with the left corner as its axis, leaving the dumbstruck Moqiu Soldier s behind, who rushed towards the left side of the formation like fire.
The Ten Second Tiger King loved face, he felt that being pierced through by the enemy was a very shameful thing, so he desperately tried to organize his troops and kill all of them. He even did not hesitate to send the heavy infantry who was protecting the center of the army to kill the other party as soon as possible to reduce the losses. However, he had neglected to notice that the other party did not have the so-called spirit of a knight. After encountering an obstruction, the other party did not have any thoughts of a duel. From the view of the Ten Second Tiger King, giving up on trying to break out of the encirclement and turn their attention towards the enemy's territory, this was simply courting death.
But the Ten Second Tiger King s were panicking, because the biggest problem for them right now was that other than themselves and the guards of the Eleventh Tiger King, there was no one else at the side of the Ten Second Tiger King s. Even if there were, they were not heavy infantry s, and could not stop the Fire Phoenix Knight s who were charging forward together. Cursing, screaming, the sound of weapons clashing, and the sound of bones breaking were getting closer and closer to them.
Eleventh Tiger King hurriedly said, "Let's avoid them for the time being, let the guards escort us to the Second Prince's place and we will be safe."
The Ten Second Tiger King laughed bitterly, "So what if we are safe? Now that the general had fled, it would be strange if the soldiers below were not in a state of chaos. If the defeated soldiers were to charge into the Second Prince's army, would I still have the face to continue living? "
Finished speaking, the Ten Second Tiger King took out a scimitar from his waist and raised it high up, shouting to the guards, "Soldiers, charge with me! "Go and kill those bastards!"
Before the guards could reply, a light suddenly appeared in front of the Ten Second Tiger King. A lady in red armour split a wall of fire and jumped out, the black warhammer in her hands smashed down towards him. The Ten Second Tiger King subconsciously raised her blade to block, who would have thought that this woman's godly strength was so astonishing, the moment the hammer came into contact with her, the enormous force transmitted to her made her unable to resist, the arm holding the curved blade instantly drooped.
Before the Ten Second Tiger King s could even cry out in shock, the woman moved her right hand again, and a bright battleax hacked towards his neck with a cold glint and accompanied by the sound of wind.
