Black Iron Crown

Chapter 697: Knights attack

   As time passed, the Chinese troops on both sides had been deadlocked for nearly twenty minutes, and there was still no victory or defeat.

   The Golden Lion Guards have amazing combat power, but the enemy's temple warriors are also very powerful. Although one-on-one is not the opponent of the Golden Lion Guards, they have the cooperation of other light infantry, and they can also deal with the Golden Lions for a long time.

The battle between the two spearmen is nothing to see, it's just that the spears stabbed back and forth. It is really not admirable for you to come and I, and it is not as big as the golden lion guard and the temple warrior. Open and close.

   However, although the heavy infantry battle between the two sides is beautiful, it is not the key to this war.

   The distance between the two spearmen is more than three meters, and there is no room for close hand-to-hand combat. Within this three-meter distance, the corpses of the Golden Lion Guard and the Temple Warriors screamed frantically, fighting with the enemy.

   But no matter how hard they tried, the results they produced were not as good as the spearmen of both sides.

   Although the battle between the spearmen seemed tedious, it was full of blood.

   In the face of three, four, or even seven or eight spears, even if it is so well equipped as Sergeant Merland, it cannot avoid death.

   Mujahideen is even more so. Their fighting method is very close to that of Rainer's army. The two sides are twisted together like two fleshy grinders, and there are fallen corpses everywhere.

  Although the battle between the heavy infantry seemed brutal, because of the heavy armor and the toughness of the body between the two sides, not many people died on the spot.

   The only meaning of their fighting is to defeat the enemy, and then rush into the enemy's spearman, using heavy armor and sharp weapons to slaughter the spearman who is not capable of close hand-to-hand combat.

   The blood stained the ground. At this time, Rainer's right flank, that is, the fighting between the volunteers from the north and the enemy continued.

   Although they have been trained for a period of time, they are not real after all. The soldiers who have been fighting on the battlefield for several years are well equipped, but there is still some gap between them and the enemy's veterans who have been in the melee for many years.

   Seeing the stalemate between the two sides, Rainer's heart sank slightly. The combat effectiveness of the enemy's army was beyond his expectations. It stands to reason that Rainer had already played all the cards except the Scarlet Gryphon Knights.

   Put in the past, no matter how powerful the enemy is, it will collapse under such an attack, but now the battle has lasted for more than 30 minutes, but the front is still fighting, the enemy only shows a slight decline.

   At this time, through the report of the messenger soldiers, the left wing was already shaky, and the little lords who connected the large phalanx were struggling, and although the right wing was in better condition than the left, the fighting was also difficult.

   Seeing the front line caught in the fierce battle, Lena gritted his teeth, he can't be defeated here, one last fight!

   If you win this victory, you will eat Jiuding, and if you lose, you will cook it.

   So, Rainer, who was eager to win, made the final decision.

   "Tell the Earl of Varas, let him take the Scarlet Gryphon Knights to the left side of the enemy and start a charge against their army!" Rainer said to the messenger beside him.

  This is the end of the matter, and he has no more options, so delaying will only make his hope of winning less and less.

   The messenger received Rainer's order and a small banner, mounted a fast horse, and ran to the Knights on the right.

   "Is that so? Very good. Tell your Majesty that I will lead the Knights to charge the enemy's side!" After receiving the order, Earl Varas took a huge flag gun from the flag officer's hand.

   He held the lance and waved it in his hand while shouting loudly: "The Scarlet Gryphon Knights! All! Each follow the knights! Charge the wedge! The left side of the target enemy army! The whole team!"

   The Scarlet Gryphon Knights had originally maintained a battle formation. After receiving the order, the rest of the beloved knights followed the Knights and prepared to charge the enemy.

Originally there were nearly a thousand knights under Rainer, and 90 blood-colored gryphon knights. The entire knight group totaled more than 400 people. In addition, there were more than 900 knights from all over the world. people.

   But after a series of previous battles, not only the ordinary infantry on the front line suffered huge casualties, but even the knights suffered huge losses.

   Now, there are only about 700 knights who can initiate a charge, which is much less than before.

The orders of Earl Varas were carried out. The knights formed a battle formation to prepare for the charge. The high war horses under their hips also used their hooves to plan the ground impatiently, wanting to fight with their masters. Rampage into the enemy formation.

   Count Varas shot the flag spear in his hand and shouted: "Charge!"

   "For victory!" the knights shouted.

   In front of the Earl of Varas, there are more than a dozen Scarlet Gryphon riders following them.

  Earl Varas is holding a flag gun, which represents the entire knights. The safety of his commander must be ensured, so he will not participate in the battle.

  The horses under the crotch of the Scarlet Griffin Riders are extremely tall, and their knotted muscles are rich in their unparalleled speed and impact.

   wore a sturdy and heavy horse armor that slightly limited their speed, but gave them greater survivability.

At this time, the weather was still a bit cold, and bursts of white gas emerged from the nostrils of the hot-blooded war horse~lightnovelpub.net~ The body of the tall and mighty horse was not ordinary blood, but contained a part of the blood of the griffon, like Gasoline is generally explosive blood.

   The four-meter-long lance was held under the armpits by the knights, and the entire array was ready to attack its enemy like a giant steel dragon.

   The movement of the Scarlet Griffin Knights was discovered by the kings and generals of the Holy War. They raised their hearts one after another. Once the Chinese army was defeated, their superiority on the two wings would be useless.

The commander of the jihadist army also discovered this. In this era, the knight is the absolute trump card on the battlefield. The commanders of the church army have been closely watching the movements of the Scarlet Gryphon Rider from the beginning.

   "Under the crown, the enemy's knights are already moving!" The general of the church stood beside Pope Rosa on horseback, pointing to the imperial army ahead.

"You are the commander. You shouldn't ask me this question. I'm just a servant of the Holy Father, my old general. I have confidence in you. Let go and do it!" Pope Rosa chuckled, his face full It is kind.

   The general nodded, and said sincerely and respectfully: "Then, I ask to use our Templars! Only knights can fight knights!"

   Pope Rosa knows he does not understand military affairs, and all military issues are left to the general.

   "Follow the order!" The general said to the messenger beside him: "Go and order the Templars! Let them assemble! Go against the enemy's knights!"

   The Templars have excellent tactical qualities. They immediately prepared for the battle. They approached the position of the Scarlet Griffin Knights according to the command of the general, with the intention of preventing their next move.
