Riding and Slashing

Chapter 124 Special Effects of New Year's Greeting Sword Technique

When the lord led the team out of Changhe Town, the three prophets were no longer in sight.

The three prophets ran very fast with the doom ushers.

Their horses are all light and fast horses. When they made up their minds to run for their lives, they didn't spare the horsepower at all, and they ran away in a minute or two.

However, the lord feels that they still cannot escape...

Because the Sarleon cavalry and those mercenary groups have been chasing closely, and the members of the Owl Knights who are scattered around have been using whistles to communicate.

Although they are also running on horseback, there are differences between horses and horses...

In the Legion of the Prophets, the war horses ridden by the Doom Introducers were probably provided to them by the knights and deserters who followed the Prophet.

This kind of war horse is actually a very delicate war tool, completely different from the Jatum horse.

Although there is a groom named Drash in the territory who is responsible for raising the horses, Alice has always been fed by the lord himself, and Li Ang is quite aware of this.

Those Jatum horses that Drash bred were somewhat similar to Mongolian horses.

Jatuma is not tall, with a shoulder height of only 1.3 meters and looks like seven to eight hundred pounds. It is considered relatively small in horses, and its personality is very docile.

This kind of horse has a strong physique and a thick coat. It is not afraid of the cold and does not choose food.Moreover, it runs fast and has excellent endurance. It does not even need to be fed or drunk during the long journey.

This is a typical nomadic horse, a model of hard work.They almost just eat grass, and they can do all kinds of work by riding a cart to carry goods, which has many advantages.

But Gatum horses also have flaws—they are relatively small, making it inconvenient to equip horse armor, and they are also not suitable for the iron-canned heavy knights of Pendor to charge into battle.

Therefore, the Jatu people usually use their speed and long endurance to ride and shoot to wear down the enemy, and those Jatu war riders who use lances to charge the battle will not wear heavy equipment.

At the same time, they always lower their heads to look for grass to eat, and they don't look mighty at all...

If you use a car as an example...it's like a certain Hongguang, who can do any job, doesn't have any requirements for the grade of oil, and can run extremely fast no matter what road.It's just that the appearance is not cool, and the explosive power is not so strong when running at high speed.

And the good-bred hunters ridden by the doom ushers are very similar to thoroughbred horses.

This kind of horse is tall and elegant, with strong explosive and impact power. The shoulder height can reach more than 1.5 meters. The throat and neck are relatively long. It looks beautiful with its head up and chest out.

Thoroughbred hunting horses are fast in short and medium distances and look good. They are indeed very suitable for these cosmetic girls who have been fishing for a long time.

But this kind of horse has very poor endurance and has high requirements for food.

A war horse needs to eat more than ten pounds of grain horse feed every day-such as oats, beans, etc., and a few eggs must be mixed with it when conditions permit.

If you don't feed well after a meal, these big guys may go on strike.

This kind of horse is more suitable for playing in the arena or for nobles to socialize or go hunting. After all, it looks elegant and dignified.

If you still use a car as an analogy-this is like some so-called luxury car brands that are loved by the majority of green tea fans. They must add high-grade oil, have small space, poor horsepower, and poor battery life.It's just that the appearance is outstanding, and the brand's social value is relatively high.

This is why the Horn Call Ranger Group has been introducing Jatum horses, hoping to improve the mainland horse breed - the Changhe town gelding they improved is a hybrid of mainland horses and nomadic horses, and has the advantages of both.

But this kind of mixed breed horse with great advantages must be castrated from a young age before it can be used as a war horse. Otherwise, not only will it not grow tall, but it will also be very irritable and disobedient... There are gains and losses, there is no perfect thing in this world.

This is like some domestic cars with relatively good quality. After the joint venture, the advantages of all parties are integrated, the workmanship may be a little rough, and some things have been castrated.But the configuration is very good, and the overall cost performance is very high...

The reason why the Three Prophets waited for Ralph's rangers to enter Changhe Town to rest before running away was probably because they thought that they might not be able to escape under the pursuit of those stamina gelding horses from Changhe Town.

At this time, all the rangers in the original unit of the United Army, including the fake cavalry on horseback, all entered Changhe Town to rest.

The three prophets probably thought that as long as they spared no effort to run for dozens of miles, no one should be able to catch up with them...

Those misfortune guides have been fooling around with those nobles for a long time. They must have a good understanding of the mentality of those nobles, and they know that the garrison in Changhe Town is not willing to go out of the city to fight.

But they didn't expect that the Changhe Town garrison and those mercenary regiments would pursue them closely because the lord paid a big price.

In addition, the camp of the Prophet Legion was completely burned by a fire, and the granaries and stables were the most burned. The three prophets had no grain left in their hands, not even a straw.

And the Prophet Legion has been on the battlefield without any rest.

It may not matter if a person is hungry for a meal or two, but if these delicate thoroughbred hunters are hungry for two meals, they may have to strike after they can't run very far.

But the Sarleon cavalry who just came out of Changhe Town are all well fed, and their horses are all civilian warhorses - Sarleon hunting horses.

This kind of horse is a standard war horse between the Gatu horse and the thoroughbred horse. It has better endurance than the thoroughbred horse, and its speed and size are not much worse than the thoroughbred horse.

Moreover, the combat effectiveness of the Sarleon Cavalry itself is actually very strong.

In the Kingdom of Sarleon, the status of cavalry is much higher than that of infantry, and usually only the best and bravest warriors have the right to mount war horses and fight with lances.

The social status of the Sarleon cavalry can even be compared to that of knight retinues - most of them are long-term trained fighters with strong combat effectiveness, generally stronger than those knight retinues who have been trained since childhood.

Moreover, the Sarleon cavalry brought spare horses - they came out to capture prisoners and sell them to rich people, not just to charge into battle!

The Sarleon Cavalry has one man and two horses, and their red-clothed hunting horses are not much different from the good-bred hunting horses of the Doom Bringer in terms of speed, and their endurance is even better-the result of the chase is obvious.

Therefore, the lord feels that the three prophets can't go far, and they will be besieged in a short time.

The outside of Changhe Town has turned into small battlefields. Basically, every team of female soldiers will face four times as many men as them, and most of the most powerful Doom Introducers are not there.

These female infantry soldiers can't fight and can't run away, their fate is already doomed.

So, Li Ang led the team, followed the report from the Owl Knights, and searched all the way west at a leisurely pace.

This is the route upstream along the Tongtian River, and it is also a route that Li Ang is very familiar with - this is the route that Li Ang took when he went to Kewen Village a few days ago.

The whistle of 'hoohoohoo' has always come from this direction. The owl knights have been scattered for dozens of miles around Changhe Town before, and there are naturally many night owls in the west.

With the state of the horses of those bad luck guides, they would have to dismount after running twenty miles at most, so the lord is not afraid of being lost at all.

Sure enough, just an hour later, at a place more than 20 miles west of Changhe Town, he saw the Sarleon cavalry and the three prophets fighting together.

However, the battle situation seems a bit weird...

Although the team of the three prophets was less than 600 people, and the cavalry and mercenary regiments had almost [-] people, but they couldn't handle the team of the three prophets for a while.

The main reason for the uncertainty is not that the three prophets' personal combat power is too strong-they are indeed powerful, but they cannot be defeated by one against a hundred in the open wilderness.

Moreover, their horses were obviously exhausted, and several horses seemed to have run to death on the road, and all the Doom Bringers had already dismounted to fight.

The three prophets are also walking now, surrounded and protected by the bad luck guides.

It is estimated that those mercenaries shot their horses to death - no matter which continent they are in, the trick of shooting people first and shooting horses is still the same, and this is what they will definitely do when chasing the enemy.

But now a large group of cavalry, facing dozens of women fighting on foot, failed to gain the upper hand - the main reason was that these Sarleon cavalry and mercenary regiments were reluctant to kill...

The Three Prophets cost [-] yuan each, and the Doom Introducer costs [-] yuan each, but they won’t be able to sell them if they die!

It turned out that these dinar-minded guys actually used blunt weapons...

Therefore, the current battle situation is that the Sarleon Cavalry surrounded the team of the Three Prophets, and then began to exchange hammers with the Doom Bringers...

But the strength and skill of those doom attractors are far beyond ordinary people, and the hammers in their hands are the usual weapons they have always used. The technique of using blunt weapons is obviously much better than these cavalry and mercenaries.

Dozens of Doom Introducers faced hundreds of beatings, and they were still able to fight on par.

After the three prophets lost their horses, they stood back to back in the middle, and in front of them were the corpses of several cavalrymen—both men and horses fell to the ground, all of which were fatally shot.

It can be seen that some cavalry tried it, but they were cut down by men and horses, so no one was willing to step forward to deal with them for a while, but surrounded by hundreds of people, they obviously couldn't rush out on foot.

The lord did not go forward after a hundred meters, and let the brothers disperse to prevent the three prophets from escaping.

Since this area is flat land, the cavalry and mercenary regiments surrounded the three prophets' team quite tightly. In many cases, the figure of the three prophets could not even be seen, so the lord did not try to shoot arrows, so as not to cause accidental injury.

He just needs to stay on the periphery and watch the show.

Li Ang is very satisfied with the current situation. Anyway, it will not be long before Godric or Charles will definitely bring a large army over. He is already thinking about how to get the spoils of the Three Prophets...

"The Goddess watches over all injustice and evil..."

And at this moment, the three prophets recited the prayer of the Lady Justice again.

Those bad luck guides became insane again at the moment when the prayer was sounded, and they launched a violent assault on the cavalry to death!

These Sarleon cavalry and mercenary regiments wanted to catch them alive, and had been besieging them cautiously, but they didn't expect these women to suddenly run away!
The encirclement circle of hundreds of people was suddenly breached by the bad luck guides!
These women who lost their horses did not escape through this gap, but were still fighting fiercely.

But the three prophets immediately broke out towards this gap.

The prophet in the middle brandished a long-handled broad-bladed knife, and slashed left and right. The huge blade swept across a large area with the sound of violent wind. At least three shields were broken by this blow, and several men who were blocking the gap They backed away one after another, not daring to take the edge.

This gap was widened by several meters.

Then, the other two prophets rushed out side by side with a golden shield in one hand and a keel ax in the other.

"Stop them!"

Seeing this, the lord quickly led his men to stand in front of them.

This time it was close, and Li Ang finally saw the appearance of the three prophets clearly - their faces looked beautiful, but they couldn't see any human emotions in their eyes, just like three robots!
The three prophets were still chanting prayers, and their voices became louder and louder. Perhaps this was a strange witchcraft, and Li Ang once again felt that the entire sky was their voices.

This may be a special chanting technique, and it may also be a way for them to fool believers.

But this kind of chanting obviously also has a strong effect. The eyes of those doom attractors have turned blood red, and the expressions on their faces have also become ferocious, just like wild animals.

And those three prophets, following this breakthrough, their armor was stained red with blood.

The flesh and blood armor showed its true face again, and the several cavalrymen who had surrounded them turned pale with fright, and hurriedly backed away as if they had seen a ghost.

In fact, they did see a ghost...

The armor made of human flesh and bones, even in broad daylight, can still make people feel chills in the back of their heads!

Several archers quickly shot arrows, but just like what the lord had tried before, the arrows stuck to their flesh and blood armor after sinking into it, which seemed to have no effect.

Li Ang immediately realized that this is witchcraft armor made of flesh and blood. It may actually be very thick, but it's not obvious from the outside. Arrows can't pierce it, and blunt weapons can't cause damage!

But since it is flesh and blood, the long sword and broadsword can definitely cut it!

"Cut with a sword! Their armor can only be cut with a sword!"

The nearest armed infantrymen had already pushed forward with their heavy fan-shaped shields, waving their long swords to surround them again.

The two prophets carrying shields and keel axes were quickly surrounded by thirty soldiers and beat them with swords. They had to block from left to right, and couldn't even fight back.

Obviously, although the flesh and blood armor on their bodies can prevent arrows and blunt objects, they really dare not be slashed with swords...

Although they seemed to be very skilled, they had no flaws in the face of the besieged by dozens of people, but it was obvious that they were besieged again.

And the prophet with the broad-bladed knife in his hand rushed over, and the blade swung out, bringing a dazzling light, the power was extremely terrifying.

She's here to save another couple of prophets.

Li Ang's infantry couldn't stand it at all, the two thick infantry shields were cut through in an instant, and the two soldiers were even sent flying.

Seeing that she was about to wield the machete again, the lord riding Alice charged up and stabbed the prophet in the chest.

Hearing "Boom!", the lance shattered, and then the lord himself flew up...

Li Ang's spear-riding technique itself was impeccable, but his spear was held back by the prophet - she used the blade of the long knife to hold the tip of Li Ang's spear!

Not only that, but the prophet also sent his hands forward, and with the help of Li Ang's horsepower, he directly smashed the lance with the sword!

The lord didn't expect such a situation at all. How could anyone face the charging lance? !
In the end, the lord, who didn't have time to let go, was pushed away by the top, and his shoulder was almost dislocated by the shock.

The power of the Prophet was too terrifying. When he charged with a spear, Li Ang flew backwards for more than three meters on the horse...

What about the equality of all beings under the gun? !
Alice is a very smart horse, it made a sudden stop and turned back to Li Ang's side, and by the way kicked the prophet with its hind legs.

But this swift hoof was still blocked by the prophet with the blade!

This terrifying proficiency...

However, no matter what, basic physics still exists in Pendor Continent—the continuous and huge reaction force caused the prophet's supporting foot to sink deeply into the mud, and the mud reached his ankles.

While one of her feet was sunk in the ground and before she could recover the weapon in her hand, Klose took this opportunity to slash with an epee.

It has to be reliable, and Klose's ability to seize opportunities on the battlefield is first-class.

However, his powerful and heavy sword was blocked by the prophet's sharp eyes and quick hands, and he blocked it again with the handle of the knife.Then he kicked him away with one leg—flying more than three meters away, and fell down with the lord.

This kick is more powerful and can kick Klose, who weighs more than 300 pounds, and the reaction force encountered by this prophet is also stronger. The hard soil covered half of his calf.

Originally, getting stuck in the mud was not a problem, but with the power of the Prophet, it was just a matter of lifting his legs vigorously.

But the problem was that the surrounding Mettenheim hunks had already surrounded her, and they didn't even give her a chance to move half a step.

They rushed forward, greeted with a dozen or so big swords, and all of them used the sword technique of chopping wood - that is, the sword technique of greeting the new year.

The prophet who was stuck in the mud raised her weapon to block for a while. She was really powerful. With such a long broad-bladed knife, she was able to block all the attacks with a jingle.

However, she was driven into the ground like a piling by this group of fierce men with heavy swords!
My legs were a foot and a half in the mud, and I couldn't even see my knees!

The Prophet's physical strength is too outrageous...

When the strength is too great, but the body does not have enough size to match, this kind of thing that will never happen under normal circumstances will appear...

When the lord got up, he rolled to the ground with a ground sword, which went straight to the leg of the prophet.

The strong men who were forging the iron dragged the prophet, and she was completely unable to defend against the sword that was close to the ground.

This time, there were no miracles.

Her leg was cut off by a griffin sword.

But the seer didn't seem to feel any pain, and the leg wasn't even bleeding at all!

However, after losing a leg, the prophet also lost his balance, and was no longer able to fend off the attacks of the Mettenheimers, and was slashed on the face by a big sword.

That pretty face was hacked to pieces.

She staggered and fell down.

The surrounding Sarleon cavalry looked dumbfounded, could they still fight like this?

Looking at the Doom Introducer who had already fallen over a dozen but failed to capture any of them, they felt that they seemed to have mastered some tricks...
