Black Iron Crown

Chapter 696: Deadlock

The death of these knights was not meaningless, at least they successfully delayed some time, so that Baron Kerim did not immediately fall into the hands of the enemy.

   There were more and more enemies around Klim, and the knight carrying him was hit by an arrow flying from nowhere in his broken gaiters and got into his calf muscles.

  The sudden severe pain caused him to fall to the ground, and Baron Kerim also went down, the leg that had been completely broken was once again hit, and he almost didn't want to live.

   In the next moment, the knight who fell to the ground because of his legs and hands was taken out by the enemy and cut his throat along the gap in the armor. After struggling for a while, he lost his breath.

   And just as Baron Kerim was full of despair and was about to lie on the ground waiting to die, an accident happened suddenly.

  Beside him, a jihadist officer who was about to use a long sword to cut off his head and obtain glory and meritorious service was covering his eyes and screaming bitterly.

   His body seemed to have been seized of control, he involuntarily fell back, and then lay on the ground and rolled around.

A crossbow arrow with the thickness of a finger was inserted impartially in his eye socket. After struggling for a while, the officer's body relaxed. The crossbow arrow had been inserted into his brain along his eye socket, destroying his Brain stem.

   Wend, who is about three hundred meters away from Baron Kerim, put away the pulley crossbow in his hand and blew a whistle: "It's not bad, I am the **** of precision!"

He handed the pulley crossbow in his hand to the walking entourage next to him, and then took the lance from the entourage, put down the visor on the helmet, and said to the knights beside him: "It's time for us to play. This is our once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!"

  Wind has been living under the wings of Rainer all these years, and has hardly participated in too many cruel wars, at least the intensity of the battles he participated in is not great.

   He is full of confidence in his brother. Although his brother does not seem to have the advantage from that aspect, he still has a strange confidence in his heart.

   He believes that his elder brother Reiner will never be defeated, and if this war is won, there will never be a war of this scale again. It is extremely difficult for him to gain feats on the battlefield.

   So, he was unwilling to let go of any chance to gain merit and glory.

  The knights beside him are all martial arts high-powered men he recruited. Under the temptation of fief and silver coins, no matter what kind of brave would be used by him.

  On the battlefield at this time, this stunning arrow also shocked the fighters of the Mujahideen. They looked around in amazement and suddenly discovered that there was a golden lion emblem with a red background fluttering in the wind not far away.

   "Your Majesty the Emperor! Your Majesty the Emperor has supported us!" The soldiers under Baron Kerim cheered after seeing this banner.

   For them, although the allegiance is Baron Kerim, the golden lion crest on the red background is in the north, and the meaning in the hearts of these warriors is different after all.

   "Long live your majesty!"

   "For Your Majesty! Fight for the Baron!"

   chanted slogans, and the soldiers under Baron Kerim rushed towards the enemy as if they had been beaten in blood, launching a more violent attack than before.

   Then, something strange happened.

  The party with fewer people actually launched an attack on the enemy with more people. What's more weird is that the party with fewer people actually has a weak advantage.

   I have to say that this is a concrete manifestation of Reiner's prestige in the army or the entire Northern Territory. Only the arrival of Reiner's heraldic flag has brought such an increase in morale to the soldiers.

   Then, Wend led a dozen knights to arrive. They stood up with their lances and rushed into the side of the army that was fighting against the soldiers of Baron Kerim...

   Needless to say, when the heavy cavalry is ready to charge and has enough horse speed to rush to the flanks of the advanced soldiers, there is no suspense in the result.

   More than a dozen heavy cavalry soldiers were enough to defeat enemies several times or even dozens of times. The fighters of the Mujahideen who were fighting against the enemy in front of them suffered a sudden blow and collapsed in an instant.

  The soldiers under Baron Kerim hurriedly came to him and helped him up.

"saved……"

   Baron Kerim breathed a sigh of relief. He is not a saint, nor is he a supernatural being. The creature's instinct to fear death is still unavoidable.

   "Thank you for your support, Dear Earl Wind!"

   After defeating the enemy, Wend came to Baron Kerim's side. At this time, the infantry he brought had arrived at the battlefield.

   "Don't thank me, my emperor brother asked me to come!"

   "Now, what we have to do is to stabilize the front and help the lords resist the enemy's attack!"

   Listening to Wend's vowed words, Baron Kerim glanced embarrassedly at the infantry behind him.

   There are five hundred people, it is really impossible to complete such a rhetoric.

   At this time, the army of Count Choral was fighting the enemy. As the lord closest to Rainer's immediate leader, he often observed Rainer's army on the grounds of his relationship with Rainer.

   even invited several coalitions to take turns to fight against his army in his territory. In this way, the combat effectiveness of his army is one of the few even in the north.

He is not comfortable facing the enemy at this time, but at least he is not in danger of collapsing. Although there are more enemies, he has a little advantage in the quality of troops. As for discipline, he is even more blasting the opponent~www.mtlnovel. com~ The entire left wing is not to say that it is as indestructible as a copper wall and an iron wall, but at least it will take a while for the enemy to break through. Now the more dangerous ones are the army of small lords who are responsible for connecting the phalanx of the big lords.

   The front battlefield, the battle scene is even more tragic.

  Rainer sees all the encounters between his two flanks in his eyes. If he cannot defeat the enemy's army as quickly as possible, his flanks are likely to be dragged down by the huge number of enemies.

   These countries that have gathered to launch a jihad have brought out the elites of their own countries. Although they may not be as good as the Northern Army in terms of equipment and training, their combat experience is by no means inferior.

What's more, they have a quantitative advantage. Reiner's left wing has become the main breakthrough of the jihadist army. On the right wing, only enough troops to delay the volunteers under Reiner's army have been deployed, and the remaining large numbers of troops are placed on the middle and left wing. .

   The Golden Lion Guards gave up their conservative combat methods. They picked up the shield in their hands, and the tomahawks in their hands waved in wide open.

   Behind them, Sergeants Morand stab the enemy sharply with their spears.

   The Golden Lion Guard stands in the front row and has the largest casualty rate.

  Although the enemy has also formed an array to fight with spears, it is very disadvantageous to engage in close combat, but it is impossible to have a melee combat unit in the array.

   Part of the temple warriors armed with two-handed swords and wearing heavy armor with cross heraldry, and part of the temple light infantry fought fiercely with the Golden Lion Guards in front of the formation.
