Chapter 442 - Baheshtur’s Gift

Chapter 442: Baheshtur’s Gift

The horseshoes that were meticulously forged by the blacksmiths struck the flat ground. The slightly soft layer of soil sank slightly, leaving behind heavy hoof marks. They were trampled by more horseshoes and gradually merged into one.

One thousand Mamlukes lined up in a rectangular formation and pushed forward side by side in an orderly manner.

A terrifying aura had already spread out from the dense formation.

The valiance of the Sarrandian people was undoubtedly displayed on this group of top level 5 cavalries. It just like what they had done on the Continent of Caradia, holding high their fine long lance, with their two-handed iron staffs at their waists, they were ready to launch a sandstorm-like charge.

They would break through all obstacles, break through all opponents, break through all enemies in front of them!

This was Mamluke’s pride!

In the distance.

Under the dark night, at the end of the horizon.

Dark figures had already appeared, like a dark tide, moving slowly through the night. The sound of footsteps had also been processed, as if linen had been wrapped around their feet. Their speed was slightly slower, but their concealment was extremely strong.

This group of Resniston Water Bandits could already be considered experts in sneak attacks.

But in reality, it was useless.

Their sneak attack had already been discovered.

Kant’s troops stood on the plains.

One thousand Mamluke and horses, who were fully equipped with heavy armor, lined up in a rectangular formation. On the left and right sides, 400 Sarrandian Horsemen wore exquisite Sarrandian chain armor and rode on a Sarrandian horses that was only covered with a layer of linen. They were on standby as the cavalry.

And on the outermost side, there were more than 300 desert bandits running back and forth.

These were Kant’s scouting cavalries.

They were also messengers.

The following battle was no longer the time for the desert bandits to appear.

Previously on Mountain of Death, there were a large number of desert bandits. These light cavalries had already suffered heavy losses. As light cavalry, they did not have the ability to engage in close combat. As a result, they had caused a large number of casualties on their side.

Although in Kant’s opinion, killing those half-demonic cavalry soldiers was already a victory, their numbers had been severely reduced.

Desert bandits also did not have the ability to form groups and charge forward on their horses.

Otherwise, with just 2,500 desert bandits, as long as they set up an excellent strategy, Kant could use these light cavalry soldiers to forcefully crush the 6,000water bandits on the plains. The casualties on Kant’s side would definitely not exceed 1,000 people.

However, Kant did not need to care about that.

He could do the same now.

He could defeat the water bandits of the Resniston River, and the casualties on his side could even be controlled in the hundreds!

He was relying on the 1,800 cavalries behind him!

“Lord.”

Baheshtur spoke from behind, “They are here.”

“Mm.” Kant nodded calmly. He looked up and saw that the shadow of the black tide on the horizon was finally approaching, but its speed was also becoming slower and slower. It seemed that they had also discovered the cavalries waiting here and were somewhat puzzled.

Those water bandits of the Resniston River were naturally cautious and would not easily come over.

This was especially so when they discovered that Kant had already made preparations.

However, there was no turning back.

These water bandits of the Resniston River were all fervently imagining the wonderful life they would have after obtaining so many treasures.

It was definitely impossible to give up this hard-won operation just because their sneak attack had been discovered. There was also no way for them to retreat. Their eyes had long been blinded by greed!

If they retreated now, what would happen to their beautiful lives in the future?

It was impossible to retreat!

They could only fight!

This was what Kant had hoped for.

On the Resniston River, his water troop class might be fewer and weaker.

But on land, with his absolute strength, it was easy for him to defeat these water bandits who were mostly light infantry. Even if their numbers were inferior, their quality was an absolute advantage!

To Kant, it was destined to be an absolute victory even though he had a smaller troop!

“The other side has stopped.”

Baheshtur said, “They’re sending people to negotiate.”

“Negotiate?” Kant’s lips curled up slightly. Looking at the front of the water bandit troops, it was obvious that they were the regular army’s lance soldiers and cavalries. He shook his head slightly. “They are only here to probe what exactly happened.”

“Then what should we do?” Baheshtur looked at Kant. “Do you need me to deal with it?”

“Yes.” Kant nodded. “Be straightforward.”

“Yes.” After getting permission, Baheshtur revealed a sinister smile. “I will be very straightforward!”

As he spoke, he lightly knocked on the horse’s belly and urged his warhorse forward.

Right in front, there were also people riding horses from the water bandit troops.

It seemed that they were knights from the Silver Platter Kingdom, and they carried a hint of arrogance, they approached Baheshtur. “Hey, strange troops, why are you here? You should know that I know all the noble families in the East County. I don’t even know which noble the flag on your body belongs to.”

“Oh, you don’t know us?” Baheshtur smiled.

“Of course.” the knight said arrogantly, “We are the troops of the Silver Platter Kingdom. Why should we know the noble families of the Dukedom of Leo?” As he spoke, there was a hint of ridicule in his eyes. “You are just a bunch of lambs waiting to be slaughtered.”

“These words are really interesting.” Baheshtur still smiled calmly. “Then what do you want?”

“Let us approach.” the knight revealed a greedy smile. “I know that you have obtained a lot of wealth, and now you need to contribute it. Do you understand? I’m not telling you this myself, nor am I telling you this in behave of the trash-like water bandits behind me.”

“Then who is it?” Baheshtur asked.

“All the noble families of the Silver Platter Kingdom!”

He focused his voice, pointed at Baheshtur and said, “You little fellow, you have to know what the power of the Silver Platter Kingdom is like. Even the Dukedom of Leo would tremble under the threat of the Silver Platter Kingdom!”

“Oh, it is indeed very shocking.” Baheshtur nodded, but the corners of his mouth revealed a mocking smile. “I want to give you a gift.”

“I like something more precious.” the knight thought that Baheshtur was obeying him and immediately revealed a greedy smile.

His fat tongue licked his lips. “If it was the golden eagle, I think I would be able to exonerate you. I might even be able to recommend you join the Silver Platter Kingdom and become a knight of this powerful kingdom. Just like me, you would gain the power that even the Dukedom of Leo would fear. It is all because of the powerful Silver Platter Kingdom standing behind me.”

“Of course.”

Baheshtur moved forward, but his hand reached for the scimitar at his waist.

Under the knight’s incredulous gaze, along with the sound of the blade cutting through the scabbard, a ghastly white flash appeared in the air. It was almost as if it was cutting through the tip of his nose with an agile technique, from top to bottom.

“Ah–”

The knight immediately felt a slight chill at the tip of his nose.

But immediately after, a bloody light appeared before his eyes. He subconsciously reached out to touch it, and an intense pain entered his mind. He covered his nose and howled in pain on the horse’s back. His nose had already been cut off.

Baheshtur looked at his miserable appearance and shook off the blood stains on the blade. “This is my gift. Do you like it?”
