Chapter 650： Battle of the River Crossing

"Boris, the fence is not the biggest problem. The biggest problem is that our cavalry can't cross the river. We can only see when the counts and the king's team rush across the stone bridge. Otherwise, we won't be able to fight this game!"



Narant also frowned with a dignified expression.



In the last Autumn Expedition War, he had never fought a serious siege battle a few times, especially in such a battle that nearly 100,000 people participated.



Even if it was outside Maple Leaf City that time, the few days of filling the river were more intense, and then it turned out that it was a trap left by the Northern Principality.



"Although there are 3,000 paladins on the stone bridge, the king and a few counts brought the extraordinary knights and should be able to charge over. Fortunately, we are not directly facing the paladins, all of them are silver knights. It must be a tragic victory to rush up!"



"A tragic victory?" Narant glanced at Boris, doubting where his confidence could really defeat the three thousand Paladins.



However, Boris didn't have a hard time with the Paladins, and I'm afraid it's still unclear about the perversion of their Mithril armor.



Woohoo!



At this moment, a loud horn sounded in the ears of Narant and the others.



"It's on! Everyone, get ready!"



Hearing the sound of the horn, Narant and other vassals took the lead in pulling out the long swords around their waists and began to issue orders to their subordinates.

Remember the URL 42biquge.



"charge!"



"kill!"



When the horn sound ended, almost at the same time, all the vassals waved their swords and charged towards the river bank first.



"Kill!" Narant and Boris also gave orders to their subordinates, and immediately followed the densely packed team to charge.



Narant dispatched a total of 151 people today.



One hundred pikemen, thirty barbarian guards, and twenty longbowmen.



As for the extra, it is Vivian.



However, he did not send out the extraordinary powers of Storm Knight and Wolf Knight.



It's not that Narant is reluctant to send out, but because the raft is limited, there are simply not so many people on board.



Another reason is that because it is now necessary to cross the river to the opposite side, the war horses cannot follow at all. This time, the combat effectiveness of the extraordinary knights has been greatly weakened.



It would be better to stay in the position to prevent any unexpected incidents. Anyway, these little vassals like Narant are just restraining the guards of the Northern Principality.



Whoosh whoosh!



"Be careful, it's a trebuchet!"



Just as Narant and the others were about to charge the Dao River, there was a terrifying sound of breaking air above their heads.



Stone bullets began to pour towards the river bank.



"Speed up!" Seeing this, Narant waved his hand and rushed forward with a group of his men. ,



According to such a large-scale war, the enemy's trebuchets are all blindly shot, so the position is basically fixed, as long as they run out of the attack range quickly, it will be safe.



"Everyone, speed up the charge... Narant, wait for me!"



Although Narant's subordinates participating in the war at this moment are all ordinary guards, daily physical training is indispensable.



This time, the advantage appeared immediately, and it ran straight out of the battle circle of a group of vassals, far ahead.



Seeing this, Boris quickly greeted his subordinates to follow.



Since Qiu Zheng, he has understood that on the battlefield, whether he wants to gain benefits or save his life, it is safest to follow Narant.



"Boris, can this wait?" Narant rolled his eyes without pausing at all.



After more than a minute, he finally brought a group of subordinates to the river bank.



"Get on the raft and cross the river!" Narant, who came to the river, jumped on the simple raft made of more than ten logs without stopping.



Following his orders, all the guards jumped onto the raft and began to land.



At this time, Boris also panted heavily and ran over with his subordinates.



Fortunately, they ran fast, and because of the large number of people, the trebuchet did not fall into their group of two or three hundred people.



Seeing that Narant and the team had already begun the forced crossing, he immediately ordered his subordinates to follow.



However, just as they started to cross the river, before they could catch their breath, a famous guard from the Northern Principality suddenly stood up on the wooden fence opposite.



"Be careful, they're going to shoot arrows! Raise your shield!" Boris hurriedly shouted at his subordinates.



This time it was a real offensive and defensive battle, and on this unobstructed river, the most feared thing was the enemy's longbowmen.



"Squad Longbow, suppress them, Vivian, deal with them!"



"Yes, my lord!"



Only Boris's voice fell, and it was covered by Narant's command.



Immediately, there were bursts of bowstrings.



Whoosh whoosh!



I saw that on Narant's dozen or so rafts, more than twenty arrows broke through the air and headed towards the guards of the northern principality on the opposite side.



Puff puff!



Whoosh whoosh!



Puff puff!



"This... is this okay!"



At this moment, they were still about 100 meters away from the other side.



The opponent's longbowman was still preparing to aim, but Narant shot two waves of arrows in an instant.



What is even more frightening is that the arrows shot by Narant's subordinates, at a distance of 100 meters, hit the enemy one after another, and occasionally only one or two arrows miss.



Especially Vivienne, when the first arrow was shot, the movement did not stop at all, the arrow was drawn, the bow was drawn, and the arrows shot at the enemy longbowmen like a rain of arrows.



In just over ten seconds, the longbowmen who was on the fence in front of them had been beaten to the core and ceased to exist.



"Boris, what are you doing, ask your subordinates to put down the shield and speed up!"



In the past, because it was a field encounter, with the existence of crossbow arrows, the record of the longbowmen was not outstanding.



But this time, without the existence of crossbow arrows, the longbowmen immediately showed the outstanding talent they obtained from Vivian.



At this moment, the other vassal rafts on both sides of them have been caught in the arrow rain of the enemy, but the range where he and Boris are located is not always arrow rain.



"Oh, alright! Listen, everyone, let's rush to me. With Baron Narant here, we're going to kill these northern duchy offal today."



"kill!"



One of Boris' subordinates also felt a sense of security inexplicably, and followed Narant's team hard.



"Bernard, is that Narant's team? I look at the family flag that looks very similar!"



At the same time, in front of the stone bridge, King Culver and a group of counts were ready to go.



They did not immediately start to attack the stone bridge, but prepared to wait for the vassals to successfully land on the other side, restrain them from dealing with ordinary guards, and then charge.



And as Narant took the lead, he was immediately noticed by the king and a group of counts.



"Yes, Your Majesty, it's Narant!" Bernard responded with pride.



"Well, that's right! It's a pity that you were preempted by Bernard, otherwise I would have let him pick one of all my daughters!" King Culver nodded and laughed loudly.



"Haha, Your Majesty, Narant and my Tulip Flower are in true love!" Under the jealous eyes of other counts, Bernard became even happier.



"Okay, Narant has landed! Let's get started!"



"Yes, Your Majesty!"



"Cartist, dispatch!"



After speaking, several counts issued orders to the ballista teams that had been waiting for a long time on both sides of the team.



Following the order, there were more than 300 ballistas leaning towards the stone bridge, and immediately began to pour out to the opposite bank in waves.



These ballistas were forged by the counts after Narant sold the technology.



At this moment, these ballistas can just suppress the enemies on the bridge and let them retreat to the other side.



"The Knights Charge!"



When the cavalry and paladins of the Northern Principality blocked on the bridge had to withdraw from the stone bridge, the king and a group of counts drew their long swords and charged towards the stone bridge with their respective extraordinary knights.



"The king and the others have started!" Following the movement on the stone bridge, everyone who had just landed immediately noticed.



"Boris, don't desert, be responsible for covering me!" Narant hurriedly stopped Boris, who was "doing nothing".



This guy really thinks that he is an invincible army with more than 100 subordinates. Five or six hundred guards of the Northern Principality have gathered in front of him. He even has time to observe the situation on the stone bridge.



"Oh! Okay, Narant!" Boris quickly corrected his attitude, mainly because the strength of Narant's subordinates was too strong, which made him feel like he was hugging his thighs, and his sense of tension was greatly reduced.



Of course, after a pause, Boris still had something to say: "By the way, Narant, I forgot to ask you, why are the spears of your subordinates so long?"



"It's called an inch long and an inch strong!" Narant rolled Boris's eyes, then ignored this guy and began to concentrate on commanding his subordinates.
