Chapter 66

On December 14, 831, the black forest fortress in the southern forest region of the great AEAS mountains.

Heavy snow in the roar of the wind down, goose like snowflakes with the hunting north wind, gray haze over the sky.

This is a blizzard whose sight has been obscured. Even the fairies with the most keen eyes can't see the sight tens of meters away in this situation.

But outside the fortress, in front of the gate of the endless ice field, there are dozens of knights in armor standing in an array on the white frost in the fierce wind and snow, and a flag with a black bottom and Phnom Penh is inserted in front of the formation, flying in the cold wind.

These knights were dressed in bright silver armor, with swords and flying axes on their waists. Their breastplates were engraved with the pattern of the head of the winter wolf. They held their helmets in one hand and the reins in the other. Tall and strong horses stood quietly beside the Knights. They were wearing cold proof leather mats and light steel armor under them, And a silver gray metal lance was hung in the flank.

These trained, bloodthirsty, carnivorous, and irascible northern army horses with the lineage of earthwalking dragons are so docile and obedient in front of their owners... And according to the weight of their armor, most people can't even walk freely in them, let alone walk in the snow under the wind and frost, But these powerful silver knights and half dragon horses didn't seem to take this weight seriously and didn't seem to hinder their action.

In the blizzard, there was silence. No one in the array talked to each other. The Knights stood still in the freezing cold, as if they were waiting for something.

Finally, after a while, the horn of assembly suddenly rang out of the city. At the same time, a masked knight standing in front of the queue also said in a dull male voice: "knights, assemble, line up!"

The sound went through the snow and into everyone's ears.

The knights, who had already assembled the array, heard the order of their commander. They kept their bodies still, but their eyes were bright. Some of them were younger and not very calm. They turned their eyes, then secretly turned their heads and looked at the gate of the fortress.

TA TA.

With the sound of iron boots trampling on the ice and snow step by step, two figures, big and small, slowly came out of the flying snow.

All people's eyes are coincidentally focused on the tall figure.

As he approached, his outline became clear. He could see clearly that this was a tall man in armor. He also walked slowly towards the array of knights, holding his black horse and helmet.

But when the black outline really came out of the snow and came into the view of the knights, they could not help feeling a sudden numbness on their scalp. A shivering chill came from the caudal vertebra and straight up to the brain. All the hairs along the way were erect, which made people fear.

Bully! This is more terrible than the black tide besieged city and the golden beast a few days ago!

Many people were secretly frightened and began to be alert. Although their bodies instinctively wanted to escape, they were all silver Knights after all. These Knights restrained this impulse and stood firmly in place to fight against their instincts.

And the source of prestige, the man with dark red eyes and black full body armor, has come to the Knights. The simple marchimirian armor is full of heavy dignity, and the death crow relief is faintly visible on the shoulder.

In the face of dozens of armed knights in armor and the same number of dragon blood horses, he seems not nervous at all. He doesn't have any fluctuation in his heart. As a person who doesn't know how many times he has seen a scene ten times and one hundred times bigger than this, he has long been used to it.

Standing by the waving black gold flag, the soldier looked around the fifty knights, nodded and praised, "yes, the array is very neat."

Seeing clearly that the man who came was his own Lord, all the knights on the scene could not help looking relaxed. After hearing the approval, they could not help but have a burst of spirit and stood more upright.

"But today is not the time to review your troops."

But then, the black armor soldier's words changed. He looked a little heavy and said, "I think you already know that I am your Lord, Joshua Radcliffe. Yesterday, I issued a call order on the bulletin board to let you gather here today, not for other reasons, but to tell you something. "

"The battle is not over."

"As we all know, we were attacked by the Kuroshio a few days ago, and the fortress was surrounded by an unprecedented group of wild animals. They used the magic of chaos to interfere with communication and cut off the hope of asking for help. Even in the end, the golden giant suddenly broke the wall, and the fortress almost collapsed. Fortunately, I arrived in time at the last moment, otherwise few of you would have survived. "Hearing these words, the knights who were nervous because of Joshua's serious expression could not help getting more nervous, and the neat array was slightly restless. However, no one was indignant or even ashamed, because their lords were telling the truth. As knights guarding the fortress, they did not fulfill their vows.

Most of the fear and anger comes from their own weakness. As knights who hold vows and virtues, they will not deny it.

The speech goes on.

"This is not to show off my force to you, but to state the fact that this black tide is far more ferocious than what you have encountered in the past. If you are careless, it will lead to the collapse of the whole situation. Once the fortress is broken, the villages and towns behind you will lose the greatest protection, and they have little power to fight back against the wild animals. "

After a pause, Joshua gazed at the crowd in front of him and said in a louder voice: "those who live in the village may have your parents, wives and future friends. I believe that if you choose to become knights and practice martial arts and body, you must not only eat more food, but prepare to guard them. Imagine, then, that if the beasts break through the barrier, freely gallop on the snow, wantonly attack your relatives and friends, drag them out of the houses, tear them up, and then devour them... I believe you are willing to pay your lives for the fortress because of your honor and duty, but would you like to see such a scene? "

No, never!

"I will defend the fortress to the death and never shrink back!" Some of the knights in the array could not help but speak. They frowned and looked worried. They seemed to be imagining such a scene according to Joshua's words, so the vow of determination was quickly made: "I would rather die before them and be devoured by Warcraft than see such a scene!"

But there was still a voice of doubt in the crowd: "but Lord, since you killed the giant beast last time and drove away the beast tide, there is no trace of half a demon in the surrounding black forest... Isn't the black tide over?"

And more directly: "yes, Lord, we have successfully held the fortress, and now the family must be safe. Are you talking a little alarmist?"

"Of course not." The soldier in black armor shook his head and looked straight at the doubting knight.

"What I'm saying is not just alarmist, it's even a fact now. Not far from our northeast, Moldova is now besieged by more than 200000 wild animals. "

At this point, Joshua stretched out his hand, and the red flame burned on his fingertips. After a long time, it left a red mark in the air, and he used the mark as a pen to draw a simple map in the air: "the four northern territories are really one, as long as the fortress of Moldova is broken, Then our plan to encircle the black forest area of the dajiaoas mountains will be completely collapsed, and the wild animals can easily bypass our defense from the rear, directly cut into the rich hinterland and attack wantonly. "

He heavily drew a red arrow in Moldova fortress, which was as eye-catching as blood: "end? No, as I said at the beginning, the battle is not over, it's just beginning! If we don't defeat this wave of beasts, we will never have peace! "

There was more commotion in the array, but it was not fear or doubt. In the discussion, a middle-aged knight with gray hair stepped forward and asked Joshua seriously, "then Lord, what should we do?"

"What to do? It's very simple. Let's go there and support Moldova and help them to stay

What Joshua said was simple and direct. He said without hesitation: "it's better to fight in other people's territory than in our own territory. Although it's not a battle on our land, it can also protect our relatives and children."

"But that's 200000 wild animals." After the middle-aged knight, another knight came out. He didn't look weak, but just felt and doubted: "fifty thousand wild animals can drive our fortress into a desperate situation, while 200000, four times the previous scale, even moving the whole black forest fortress is useless."

Indeed, even if it occupies the convenience of the city wall and all kinds of magic and alchemy equipment, the 3000 people's garrison and reserve forces are just fighting against the crazy animals without wisdom. What's the use of calling them 50 knights? Even if they are silver level elite combat, it is impossible for them to persist in the endless tide of beasts for long.

The soldier shook his head and seemed to disagree.

"It's not the same as when we were guarding the city." He said: "at that time, you were inferior in number, and you had no advantage in average strength. In high-end combat power, the other side had golden Warcraft, and you only had three silver top officers. In this case, you can persist for such a long time, which is enough to prove that crazy beast is not strong.""Moldova is guarded by a golden mage, so they are able to support themselves up to now under 200000 crazy beasts and send out letters for help, not to mention..."

At this point, he showed a proud smile: "because this time I, I lead you, so we will win."

Such arrogant and heroic words came from the man in black armor, but no one had any different ideas. In the face of the strong man who defeated 50000 Warcraft with one man's strength, no one would question his confidence even if he had to face more wild beasts. The Knights nodded naturally, And together issued the first cheers since the assembly: "must win!"

"I will win!"

"I will win!"

"In that case, Mount!"

"Yes

With this order, all the Knights put on helmets at the same time and stepped on the horses. They hung the packages with dry food supplies on the side of the horses. At this time, the horses with the blood of the Dixing dragon also snorted, and the white gas gushed out and steamed up.

Joshua also slowly put on his cold and heavy helmet. In the V-shaped gap, two points of red light were burning like fire. He turned over and sat on his horse, and then pulled up the firefly behind him. Until then, someone noticed that the second figure was a girl with silver hair, but no one cared about it now.

The soldier in black armor issued an order:

"Follow my orders, target northeast, Moldova, move forward!"

After that, he immediately drove his horse and set out first.

Perhaps, only such people can bring certain victory!

The flame in the chest was burning, and the Knights responded loudly again, "go ahead!"

With the order, the ice dust splashes and the horse's hooves roar. In the long heavy snow, the fast-moving Knights set off a wave of snow dust and shake the ground with heavy steps. They rush to the distance against the strong wind blowing from the North like a sharp arrow tsunami.

Never move forward
