Chapter 401： Stone Bridge Battle (2 in 1)

Time passed by, and the Northern Principality quickly completed the supply of drinking water.

During this period, although Narant and others had a panoramic view, they did not make any movement.

Because tens of thousands of people on the other side were just a mile away from the stone bridge, so they didn't dare to act rashly.

Moreover, even if you attack these northern principality guards who are taking water, it will not be of any use, but will expose your own trump card.

Woohoo!

After the drinking water was replenished, the situation that Narant and the others had originally hoped to set up camp did not appear.

The trumpet sound immediately came from the army of the Northern Principality.

With the sound of the horn, more than 2,000 heavily armed guards gathered at the forefront.

"They're ready to attack!"

Narant and the others looked at each other and felt a lot of pressure.

The two guys, Boris and Rael, even sweated on their foreheads. After all, it was a dozen of ten effects, and no one could be calm at this moment.

"Get ready to fight, don't worry, since they are in such a hurry to come to give their heads, then we will teach them a lesson!" Seeing the reflections of Boris and Rael, Narant reassured them towards them .

Although he was panicking in his heart, he was a little helpless, but fortunately, he was a man who had fought **** battles many times on the battlefield, and his surface was still as stable as an old dog.

Woohoo!

And when Narant's voice fell, a second horn sounded from the other side.

"Kill! Kill! Kill!"

"Kill! Kill! Kill!"

When the horn sounded, there was a tsunami-like scream of killing from the other side. Following the sound, the more than 2,000 guards of the Northern Principality began to slowly press towards the stone bridge.

And all the guards on Narant's side heard the thunderous shout, their palms sweated, their faces turned pale, and their nervousness was clear at a glance.

Even the veterans under Narant's hands like Quick showed a strange look.

Narant frowned slightly. Under the pressure of the enemy's numerical superiority, this voice alone can greatly reduce the morale of his side. Although he knows that this is inevitable, if he is in this state when he takes on the battle, That's on hold today.

Seeing such a situation, Narant felt that he had to do something.

As soon as he gritted his teeth, he finally walked quickly towards the stone bridge, and then jumped to the top of the stone wall on the bridge.

"The warriors of the Tulip family, the enemy is right in front of you, are you scared?" Standing on the stone wall, Narant looked at the guards who were extremely nervous.

However, in the face of his inquiry, there was silence in the field, and naturally no one dared to answer him.

Narant didn't care either, but continued with a slight smile: "I tell you, don't be afraid of them, because they are just a lot of people, but they are actually bluffing."

"Look at their appearance. There are few horses in the team, and the armor is not complete. Is this still a guard? It's not as good as a group of serfs!"

"In Narant's eyes, the tens of thousands of guards from the Northern Principality on the other side are sheep."

"And what are you? You are the elite guards of the Tulip family, with full armor and weapons!"

"So, think about it, in the face of 10,000 sheep, do you need to be afraid?"

"The answer is obviously not necessary, because a sheep is always a sheep, and a sword can cut off one!"

"More importantly, they still met me Narant today!"

"Do you know who I am Narant? Have you heard of my glorious deeds? Well, it's not something like punching the earl's son, it's just a trivial matter!"

"My Narant's real glorious deed was some time ago! When I first entered the territory of the Northern Principality!"

"At that time, the Northern Principality surrounded our Onyx Principality's rangers and a group of noble heirs with 2,000 cavalry."

"Have you heard of the 2,000 cavalry team? The 200 cavalry are the most elite knights directly under the Northern Principality! They are all extraordinary knights, armed from the beginning to the war horses, and the armor on them combined with the war horses is more than You are heavy!"

"In addition, in addition to the two hundred extraordinary knights, they also have 1,800 cavalry who are also extremely elite!"

"Seeing that the rangers and descendants of the nobles of our principality are about to die, I, Narant, have appeared!"

"And I, Narant, directly let the two hundred extraordinary knights throw away their armor and armor, beheaded and captured 40 or 50 of them, and even their excellent war horses were all captured by me!"

"You definitely don't believe it now, because what you heard some time ago was that it was the blessing of the God of Glory, but think about it, is there really such a strange thing in this world?"

"Actually, this rumor is used to deceive you, because I, Narant, want to keep a low profile, so several counts and kings can help me hide it! Miss Stella can testify for me about this matter!"

"So, do you think it is difficult to deal with 10,000 rabble, or is it difficult to deal with 200 extraordinary knights plus 1,800 elite cavalry?"

"Yes, I am Narant, what kind of enemy can't be defeated?"

Narant spoke a lot of words to the crowd in one breath.

Of course, there are lies in these words, but the situation is critical, and he can't care too much.

And when he paused for a while, the guards in the field were already in a trance, and their faces showed a little confusion.

Narant's words were too fast and too boastful.

They do know about the battle of the valley some time ago, and as Narant said, the version they heard was that the God of Glory favored and drove those war horses crazy.

But Narant is so convincing now, but it makes them a little confused.

After all, the version of the God of Glory is really too mythical, but Narant's words are more believable, and Narant also mentioned that Stella can testify.

"This time, Narant promises, I agree to take you to accomplish a feat, that is to defeat tens of thousands of people with a thousand people!"

"This kind of merit is enough for everyone to get incomparably rich rewards. After you go back, you can buy farmland and build a brand-new stone house. If you don't have a wife, you can marry a gentle and considerate wife!"

"So, now you tell me, are you still afraid?"

Narant is not going to give these guards extra time to think. When they show confusion, the nervousness on their faces has faded.

And this time is an excellent entry point to change morale.

"Don't be afraid!" Quick and others were the first to respond to Narant.

Their original nervousness was just an instinctive reaction, not a fear of death.

"I can't hear it. Say it again, are you afraid?"

"not afraid!"

"not afraid!"

Perhaps it was influenced by Quick and others. When Narant asked for the second time, all the guards in the field responded loudly, even a small number of guards on the mound not far away echoed loudly.

"Very good! Then should we kill sheep, get military merit, and earn gold coins to live a good life?"

"Yes, my lord!"

"Well! Then everyone is ready, a group of sheep is about to arrive on the battlefield, everyone and I, Narant, will kill the sheep and get military merit!"

"Kill sheep, get military merit, and live a good life!"

"Kill sheep, get military merit, and live a good life!"

With Narant's mobilization, bursts of loud cries also sounded on the riverbank on their side.

The morale that had been oppressed by the enemy not only returned, but even became more elevated.

Seeing such a situation, Narant finally felt relieved.

"Narant, you are too powerful!" When Narant returned to his original position, Boris, Rael and Stella looked at Narant as if looking at a monster.

Although the nobles of this world also like to announce mobilization before the war.

But that is nothing more than to degrade the character of the enemy first, then sing about yourself and others to represent justice, and finally promise some benefits.

But would such a mobilization work for the soldiers?

The answer is yes, except for the promised benefits, there is absolutely no other use.

If he could defeat the enemy with these words, he would dare to urinate upside down.

But I don't know the reason for Narant's words just now. Even the few of them heard their blood boiled. They felt that as long as they followed Narant, the army of the 10,000-strong Northern Principality on the opposite side was really like sheep.

"Hehe, nothing great, I'm just bragging!" Narant was very modest.

Compared with the speeches of those politicians in the previous life, I only learned some skins.

Waving at Boris and Stella, whose beautiful eyes were shining, Narant didn't dare to delay any longer, and began to issue battle orders.

"Vivian, the ballista team is ready. When the enemy approaches the stone bridge, start shooting immediately!"

"Quake, let ten Storm Knights stand on both sides of the stone bridge with bows and arrows, waiting for my order!"

"Raymond, you take the barbarian guards to stand on the carriage behind the stone wall. If any enemy climbs up the stone wall, chop it back for me!"

"Yes, my lord!"

Following Narant's orders, all the subordinates immediately moved.

The current high morale is only temporary, so Narant must give the enemy a head-on blow to maintain this high morale.

And if he wants to give the enemy a head-on blow, he still believes in his subordinates the most.

...

"The guards of the Onyx Principality on the opposite side don't seem to be simple. In the face of tens of thousands of us, there is such a momentum. I don't know which family's guards are?" At the same time, the shouts of the five hundred Narant people also reached the north. Principality here.

The great commander Huck frowned slightly and looked at Narant and others on the other side of the river. Because the other party did not hang the family flag, it was still impossible to identify the other party's identity. .

"My lord, even if it is not simple, it is only less than 2,000 people. I believe that when the warriors of our principality start charging, they will be beaten and lose their armor and armor immediately!"

"Yeah!" Huck nodded in agreement.

He also has great confidence in the combat effectiveness of his guards.

Among his 10,000-strong team, the king's direct guards accounted for 5,000, and the other 5,000 were composed of other marquis and earl families.

However, it is the king's direct guard who is leading the charge now, and he also wants to get a beautiful first victory to boost morale.

"Almost there! Let the warriors rush!"

Seeing that the attacking team of 2,000 people was about to approach the bridge, Huck gave the order again.

Woohoo!

"kill!"

With the sound of the horn, the team of the Northern Principality, which had been moving slowly, once again shouted and killed, and then 2,000 people charged towards the stone bridge like a wave.

Soon, the leading team of 2,000 people rushed to the stone bridge.

But here, there are two deep trenches that Narant dug in the morning.

However, the Northern Principality had seen the situation here at Shiqiao before, so it had already made preparations.

I saw that the charge was in the forefront of the team with more than a dozen bridges tied with tree trunks. These bridges were immediately erected above the deep ditch, forming small wooden bridges.

When the wooden bridge was built, the guards of the Northern Principality quickly stepped on the wooden bridge, then swung their long swords and began to chop down the thorny wooden stakes in front of them.

Just when the guards of the Northern Principality felt that the enemy was nothing more than this, Narant turned to look at Vivian who was not far away, and then nodded to Vivian.

"Long-range attack team, target the enemy in front of the stone bridge, launch!"

"emission!"

Buzz!

Whoosh whoosh!

Following the order, the ballista with only a small firing window, which was hidden behind the bushes, suddenly launched.

As the body shook, five thick and long arrows shot towards the opposite bank with a whistling sound.

"Ah, what is that..."

Puff puff!

A group of guards from the Northern Principality crowded at the front of the stone bridge, waiting for them to see what happened to the five spear-like crossbow arrows, which had already formed a cross and shot into the crowd from the left and right sides.

In an instant, five blood mists appeared in the dense crowd.

The strong force of the crossbow arrow penetrated more than a dozen people in this crowd and lost its strength.

In one encounter, the guards of the Northern Principality suffered fifty or sixty casualties.

"Ah! What kind of weapon is this, everyone spread out! Everyone spread out!"

For a while, the guards at the forefront of the Northern Principality fell into panic when they saw the tragic situation of their companions.

Because the lethality of this strange weapon is too great.

Unfortunately, they found the situation in front of them, but the guards in the back didn't notice it, and they were still crowding forward.

The resulting situation is that the guards in front are completely unable to disperse or retreat.

"Bastard, this... is this the secret weapon that Commander Batcher said?" Huck, who was standing on the high **** behind, immediately noticed the movement of the army.

Originally expressionless, his expression changed drastically, and he subconsciously exclaimed.

After Bache was defeated, he had returned to the rear.

And he also informed the king of the reason for his failure.

The most incredible thing is the sudden madness of the warhorse.

However, in addition to this, there are weapons that can fire huge arrows and can directly kill the title knight.

Although many nobles and legion commanders felt that Batchel was looking for a reason for his own failure, the hundreds of royal knights who escaped together testified for Batcher.

This made everyone have to believe Bach's words.

And the king solemnly informed all nobles and commanders that they must guard against the attack of the secret weapon.

Huck thought that the secret weapon must be very rare, so it was only possessed by the army of the Onyx Principality.

But he never expected that the garrison team of 2,000 people opposite him actually had five.

Moreover, this power is as true as reported by Bucher can cause a large number of casualties with a single arrow.

Bloodshots appeared in Huck's eyes. Those were the king's direct guards. They were equipped with fine leather and chain mail, but facing the thick and long arrows, they were like paper.

"All of you stand guard, I will direct myself!"

drive!

The next moment, Huck did not hesitate to urge the horse to rush forward!

Under such a situation, if he didn't take command, most of the army would be directly shot to death by that secret weapon!

"Everyone, spread out for me!"

"Did you hear it, spread it out!"

Huck galloped from the rear, shouting as he ran, and finally let a group of guards who were unknown to hear an effective order.

Immediately, the charging teams of the Northern Principality began to slowly disperse, waiting for the leading team in front to level the road ahead.

"So fast?" Narant originally meant that he could harvest a few more waves of dense heads, but after the appearance of the general on the horse, his hopes were dashed.

Fortunately, he is not in a hurry. There is only a narrow and long stone bridge on the road. Even if the enemy is scattered now, it will not help in a while.

It didn't take long for the guards of the Northern Principality to finally clear all the obstacles on the other side.

"Warriors, rush to me, kill all the enemies, and let our camp be erected on the opposite bank in the dark!" After the obstacles were cleared, Huck personally commanded and gave the order again.

"kill!"

Hearing the words, the guards of the Northern Principality stepped on the wooden bridge and started charging again without hesitation.

All of a sudden, a team of more than 2,000 people from the Northern Principality rushed towards the other side of the river like ants.
