Black Iron Crown

The combat capabilities of these knights are extremely brave. It can be said that the knights in the northern region rely on their own martial arts for their livelihood.

Almost no one will slacken their training, which is completely different from those knights in the south who occasionally do business or who aim to be a lady's lover for life.

Perhaps the southerners will conclude that the northern knights are barbarians, but they will always abide by the knight's principles and responsibilities.

Knights are synonymous with killing machines on the battlefield. When they first appeared, they were the only professional soldiers on the battlefield. Now, professional troops slowly began to appear, but their status in the north has not been affected in any way.

In the south, even anyone can call themselves a knight, and many people who really have the title of knight have given up the martial arts that they rely on for survival, which has caused their status to plummet.

The Northern Knights' ability to maintain a lofty status despite the emergence and rise of regular professional troops is directly proportional to their steady improvement in martial arts and their role on the battlefield.

The sound of horseshoes was deafening. Although the armies of the upstarts were not as weak as those in the south, they were still slightly different from the knights in the northernmost region where the Ridkar Empire started.

And because it was a sudden attack, these soldiers completely lost their sense of proportion.

Although the knights hadn't rushed in front of them, they had already started looking for a safe place like cowardly groundhogs.

"Don't escape! Everyone line up!" The officers shouted loudly one by one. Under such circumstances, if they successfully line up, there is still a chance of survival, but if they continue to flee like this, the only fate is was ruthlessly annihilated.

As expected of soldiers who have fought hard, although most of them panicked, some of them started to move towards their commander.

It's a pity that the panic-fleeing favorites still occupy the majority.

At the same time, the knights were getting closer and closer to them, and rushed in front of them in an instant.

The huge bodies of the knights appeared directly in front of these soldiers, and the lances pierced through their bodies cleanly.

A sharp long sword across the throat, cut off the arm.

The hastily assembled thin array could not resist the impact of a full 200 knights, just like a sand dune facing a flood,

There was no room for resistance at all, and the change was completely washed away.

The soldiers who have lost their formation can only be slaughtered, just like a group of tigers entering a herd of cattle and sheep.

"Lord Earl, one of our troops has been attacked by enemy knights!" A messenger on a fast horse galloped to Earl Redmara and said in a hurry.

"How many enemies are there?" Count Redmara asked hastily.

He didn't expect the enemy to have such courage, daring to sneak attack him when Leiner left the northern border.

Although he knew that Leiner had implemented the militia system in the northern border before, they had become accustomed to using regular troops to fight in the recent wars, and the militia was simply ignored by them.

They also thought that the militia system implemented by Rainer was similar to serf conscripts.

"Two hundred people! They have two hundred knights!" said the messenger.

"Two hundred people..." Earl Redmara turned around and shouted to the heavy cavalry behind him: "Heavy cavalry, get ready! Come with me!"

After a while, the heavy cavalry got on their horses and gathered behind Earl Redmara.

However, although they reacted quickly, the marching team of more than a thousand people had already been beaten and fled in all directions, and the knights were chasing and killing them at this time.

"Retreat! It's time for us to retreat! Ten minutes is enough for the enemy to react! Go!" The leading knight shouted loudly.

The knights who were fighting with the enemy immediately moved towards him.

However, there are still a group of red-eyed knights who are still relentlessly chasing and killing the enemy soldiers. The blood seems to have inspired the animal nature hidden in their bodies.

This is already the norm for the knights in the north. In the past hundreds of years, the knights often disobeyed orders in pursuit of glory. I don’t know how many battles have been lost because of this.

Sometimes these knights even fought for the place of the queen when they were at a disadvantage in the war, resulting in the annihilation of the entire army.

Now, these knights really showed their true nature again, and disobedience on the battlefield has almost become their tradition.

The leading knight had no choice but to ride his horse and ran to them to give orders directly. Hearing the sound of horseshoes getting closer and closer in the distance, these knights gradually regained their sobriety.

Hastily followed behind the large army and withdrew to Fort Angron.

When Earl Redmara led the royal heavy cavalry to arrive here, he saw only a messy battlefield and corpses all over the ground. As for the enemy, he didn't even see a hair.

"Damn it!" Earl Redmara angrily threw the whip in his hand to the ground, almost furious.

After clearing up the battlefield, they finally counted the damage figures.

400 people were killed, 100 people were injured, and the remaining 500 people were remnants and defeated generals. This army has almost been destroyed.

The lords of the upstart coalition army were very angry and clamored to send all the lords of the royal family to the gallows.

On the southern battlefield, the situation has become very critical. The left wing composed of Earl Creek's army and a small number of Leiner's vassals has been unable to cope with the enemy's attack.

Although wearing iron armor, the armor is not omnipotent after all, and there will always be some dead spots. Under the attack of four times their own strength, it is more difficult for them to resist.

More and more soldiers under the command of the lords have been wiped out, and their losses have exceeded 50%.

In normal times, if the casualties of an army exceed 30% to 40%, I am afraid that it will collapse, but now it is facing the danger of annihilation of the entire army, and no one backs down. They want to return to the northern border alive, and return to themselves alive hometown.

The same is true for the soldiers under Earl Creek. They want to live, and their desire to survive overrides all fear.

However, no matter how they resisted, the inferiority of their troops could not be compensated. The enemies around them became more and more correct, but their comrades-in-arms were getting fewer and fewer.

Seeing the left wing facing the crisis, Leiner gritted his teeth and said to the orderly beside him, "Order Baron Tillihan to lead all the light cavalry to charge the enemy!"

In any case, the left wing must not be eliminated. If the left wing of one's own side is eliminated, the enemy's right wing can assist the enemy's center army, outflanking Reiner's right wing from the side, leading to a series of chain reactions.

The messenger didn't dare to delay after receiving Leiner's order, and hurriedly whipped the horse under his crotch frantically with his whip, and ran towards the position of the light cavalry at full speed.

As time passed, the messengers were getting closer and closer to the light cavalry, and there were fewer and fewer soldiers on the left.

Finally, the first soldier collapsed.

He threw down the weapon in his hand and cried to escape. His collapse opened the back of his comrades around him, and then a spear was inserted into the back of another soldier.

It can be seen from his unbelievable eyes that he didn't understand why a spear suddenly appeared on his back.

A chain reaction happened, and more and more soldiers collapsed and fled.

The left wing... all wiped out!
