Chapter 197: Elf Bow, Guide Arrow(1/2)
"Don't say I won't give you a chance, William, your chance to prove it has come."
As soon as the sky darkened, Zhang Kun rushed to the entrance of the passage with about 4,000 soldiers and horses.
The Order of the Judgment Knights of the Church of the Dawn was to assemble early the next morning and launch an attack on the opposite side of the passage, with the slogan "Purge the Heretics."
But Zhang Kun simply didn't have the patience to wait until the next morning.
He took the first step and picked up the three medium-sized mercenary groups stationed outside the city. First, he directly killed Sophia and Sauron, forcefully convinced the rest, strengthened the team, and after resting for two hours, he immediately pounced on the Hellfire mercenaries.
Corps, using powerful force to suppress the Hellfire Mercenary Group.
After mercilessly killing several hot-tempered brothers, the mercenary leader William unexpectedly surrendered first.
The entire regiment, totaling 700 people, joined the baron's army largely unscathed.
After subduing the leaderless and panic-stricken remaining warriors of the Black Dragon Mercenary Group, Zhang Kun's troops have reached an astonishing 3,600, including 800 cavalry, five silver knights, and more than 100 high-level warriors.
This kind of combat power is certainly nothing from the perspective of the entire continent, but within the territory of the Earl of Bauhinia in the Forest of Green Fields, it can be considered a strong force.
At least, it is much stronger than the three hundred elite Judgment Knights who came near the passage.
Not all of those three hundred people are high-level warriors. About half of them are mid-level warriors. One of the reasons why they are so powerful is because the leader of this team is a Golden Knight, who is very powerful.
Another reason is, of course, because there are two priests in the team.
With the blessing of their divine magic, even an intermediate warrior can be used as a high-level warrior, and a high-level warrior can be used as half a silver-level warrior.
Because of this, no matter how large or small the Holy See's troops were, whenever they appeared in any territory, they would be fierce and powerful. The small lords from all over the place would not dare to attack them except to admire them with respect.
No matter how much I dislike seeing these Holy See knights, I can only endure it.
Because those guys really dare to take action, and they will label them as "heresies" at every turn, which is very unbearable.
I can't fight again and again, and I can't speak again and again.
If you really suffer a loss and complain to the imperial capital, you may be in trouble again and not get the compensation you deserve at all.
This is the current status of the Hill Empire.
On the territory of the empire, if you rashly attack the temple warriors, you will know how serious the consequences will be.
"Can you not go up?"
William's face fell. He was forced by the situation to surrender to the Lord. He just wanted to survive this disaster and find a way to escape.
Unexpectedly, not even overnight, the lord directly gathered his team to deal with the Holy See cavalry.
Regardless of whether you can save your life by taking this step, in the future, it will be difficult to survive on this continent unless you remain anonymous.
"What do you think?"
Zhang Kun chuckled and said: "It's okay if you don't go. Sophia and the others have already set an example. At most, after you die, this lord will clear your name..."
The so-called rectification of names means that regardless of whether you fight or not, we will kill you first, and then we will say that you died heroically while fighting the Holy See.
This is not the same.
If you lose your life, your wife, children, and children will still be miserable.
William thought clearly about the interests involved. When he heard this, his expression straightened and he immediately changed his tune, "Lord, don't worry, even if the villain is defeated and dies, it will not insult the lord's military power... Brothers, follow me.
, We have more people and they have less people. This battle will be won. As long as we perform meritorious deeds and the lord agrees, we will receive great rewards. In the future, we will not have to travel through wind and rain just to fill our stomachs, killing..."
As William shouted loudly, the original Hellfire mercenary group rushed forward as if they had been beaten to death.
Zhang Kun's eyebrows jumped at the sight.
In terms of personal physique and strength in this world, they are definitely many times stronger than those of Blue Star.
But let's not talk about military discipline.
Of course, we cannot expect civil society organizations to have much discipline. Most of them still stay at the level of group fights. Just like the Hellfire Mercenary Group in front of us, if they really fight with the Judgment Knights, they will naturally give away food.
"The whole army...press on."
Zhang Kun waved his hand, and Hades, Yalins, Arman and others directed their soldiers and horses to slowly press forward. Taking advantage of the large number of people, they rushed forward in a dark and powerful manner.
"Bad guy, why don't you go up?"
Next to him, a tall girl with pointed ears and skin as tender as porcelain, tilted her head and looked at Zhang Kun with disdain.
I think he was regarded as a person who was greedy for life and afraid of death.
"Even though you have a large number of men, they are all a mob. Although the Judgment Knights of the Church of the Dawn have fewer people and are not as elite as our Royal Guards, they cannot be defeated by these people."
"Ai Ruola, you are wrong about this. It's not that I don't want to go up, but there is no need to go up."
Zhang Kun shook the long bow in his hand.
The bow is green in color and is as tall as a person. It doesn't look very sophisticated, just like a vine that naturally grows into a curved arc.
But this bow is heavy in the hand, and there is a strange stability and strength in the soul. It seems that as long as you have a bow in your hand, you can shoot even the strongest enemy with one arrow.
kill.
"Give me back the bow of courage."
As soon as she saw the long bow, the elf girl Airola's eyes filled with anger, her mouth twitched slightly, and she was eager to snatch it, but she didn't dare. Obviously, she had suffered enough in front of her.
"Edward, I have passed on all the archery skills inherited from the elves to you. Instead of letting me go back, you still want to take my bow. If the royal court knows that you bully the elves like this, it will be the end of Thorn Ridge."
"Really? Then let's wait until the Elf King's Court in the Forest of Green knows about it."
Zhang Kun didn't take it seriously at all and dealt with it casually.
He drew his bow like a full moon and narrowed his eyes as he looked ahead at the Judgment Knights who were fiercely counterattacking.
The armies of both sides only made contact. Our side first declared war without declaring it and sent troops to attack. As a result, it hit the iron plate and was beaten back steadily, causing heavy casualties.
None of the few Silver Knights took any advantage.
This is because Golden Knight Thomas did not take action himself.
The reason why this fighting situation occurred is because of those two priests.
The two men raised their gorgeous magic wands high and chanted incantations loudly. Waves of light as white as milk splashed in all directions and onto the three hundred knights in silver armor.
Each of these knights became like wolves and tigers, their strength increased greatly, and they were not afraid of casualties.
Even if he was stabbed or slashed with a sword, and his body was covered in blood, he would still fight bravely, as if he felt no pain.
Moreover, the wounds on their bodies are still recovering at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The more you fight, the stronger you become, and your blood will be restored on the spot.
This looks like three hundred people, but in fact, it can even be used as three thousand people.
No wonder, when they heard that they were going to fight the Temple Knights, all of their own men and the soldiers of the mercenary group looked as ugly as if they were mourning their concubines.
It is indeed impossible to fight.
Nearly four thousand people beat three hundred people. Zhang Kun really didn't expect such a situation.
"Your army is going to be defeated, haha."
The elf girl obviously saw the changes in the battle situation clearly, and said with gloating eyes and eyebrows.
"Elora, why don't we make a bet? If I win this battle, you will tell me the elf spell. If I lose, I will let you go home, and even return this bow to you.
.”
Zhang Kun drew his bow fully but did not fire it. He was waiting for an opportunity.
The priest showed his skills and ruled that the knights had the upper hand. The leader of the knights, Thomas, did not take any action. He just stood next to the priest and looked at him coldly.
Zhang Kun knew that if he fired an arrow at this time, there was a 60 to 70 percent chance that it would be blocked by the golden knight. Not only would he not be able to kill the two priests, but it would also make the other party more vigilant, making this battle difficult to fight.
.
Although we are at a disadvantage now, if three of them fight to the death, or five of them fight to the death, whether they are domestic soldiers or surrendered mercenaries, when they really fight, it is not like they imagined, where they turn around when the situation is not going well.
escape.
He must have already made a move against the Temple Knight, knowing that even if he turned around and ran away, he would be dead in the future, so he never looked back.
Once something is done, there is no chance to regret it.
People in this world obviously know the style of the temple better than themselves.
If they continue to fight like this, the team of 6,000 people may be defeated, and the 300 cavalry will definitely die with not many people left.
In Zhang Kun's view, all those who died were outsiders, and no matter how many died, he wouldn't feel bad.
However, for Thomas, the leader of the Temple Knights, these 300 people are the confidants he brought, and he would be very distressed if they were killed or injured, so his patience must not be as good as his own.
And since he is so "weak" and still on the battlefield, isn't this the best opportunity to capture the thief and capture the king?
If he were Thomas, he would run forward and capture the opponent's leader without even thinking about it. There would be no suspense in this battle.
"If you don't gamble, you are the most cunning person. The elf won't tell you the spell. Grandpa Tree told me that gambling is not a good boy."
Aurora curled her lips, but strangely did not agree.
Even if she knew that the other party had lost, she might actually keep her promise and put her back, but she didn't want to gamble.
To be continued...
