Soldiers holding torches rushed through the forest. They quickly crossed the grass and shrubs to open up a path for the army behind them. The firelight at night shuttled through the forest, lighting up everything they saw.
When the soldiers of Anti stepped into a forest, the sound of intensive bowstrings sounded, followed by the sound of falling to the ground after being struck by arrows.
"Raise your shield and defend!"
A highly skilled Knight galloped through the forest. He shouted loudly, and then a pale white light curtain spread from his feet, covering the surrounding soldiers.
"Castle" Aspect Power, Royal Authority School, phantoms that look like chess pieces, appear above the soldiers' heads. This is the temporary protection given by Knight to the soldiers under his command, allowing them to temporarily upgrade their ranks to prepare for the upcoming battle.
When the second wave of arrows hit, they were first blocked by a pale white curtain and their speed was greatly reduced. Then they were blocked by the shields raised by the soldiers, making a crisp impact sound, and then fell. Even if a few unfortunate soldiers were hit, they only penetrated a little and were not serious.
Seeing this, the morale of Anti's elites was greatly boosted, they speeded up again and charged towards the target location.
The people in Trident Forest who support Prince Jabs have no choice but to retreat and are forced to fight at this time.
Under the cover of arrow rain, they entered the battlefield and faced off against the incoming Anti Soldier.
The sound of swords clashing sounded in the forest of fire Burn. Those who still follow Prince Jabs today are die-hard loyalists of the royal family and the last elite left behind by Regas.
Under their obstruction, Anti's army was unable to break through quickly and was temporarily blocked in the forest.
This result surprised many of the accompanying officers, but fortunately they were well prepared.
"It's your turn, this is your chance to clear your name!" A senior officer pulled out his saber and shouted sternly at the cowering figures behind him.
"We..." These people looked at me, and I looked at you, still a little hesitant.
They were originally Valley City's nobles, but they had never experienced a real life-and-death fight. Secondly, the army on the opposite side was Prince Jabs's close guards and their former allies. Now that they were wielding swords against each other, many people still felt a lot of pressure.
Seeing that none of them wanted to move, the officer sneered and then motioned to the soldiers around him to surround these people.
"I'll count to ten, and anyone who doesn't come forward to fight will be considered a deserter and will be killed without mercy!"
"Yes, sir!" The surveillance soldiers picked up their spears one by one and pointed them at the people in the encirclement.
Under such heavy pressure, the nobles among them were anxious, and some still took chances and did not take action.
"Ten, nine... five, four, three, two, one." At this time, only a small number of people rushed out to join the battle, while more people stayed in place and took no action.
In response, the officer shook his head and said, "How stupid."
"Do it!"
The sound of crossbows sounded behind the surrounding soldiers, and then the crossbow bolts shot into them, turning the hesitant nobles into hedgehogs.
After the death of a group of people on the outside, the people inside were violently stimulated by death, shouted anxiously and loudly, and then began to rush out. There was a hole deliberately left by the officer.
Seeing that they finally took action, the officer waved his hand and the sound of firing crossbows stopped.
The nobles in Valley City began to fight with the guards of Jabs. Although most of them had never been on the battlefield, in order to save their lives before this expedition, they had good equipment, received more military training, and had abundant resources, so they were much stronger than ordinary people.
Seeing the rebellious Valley Minggui on the opposite side, Prince Jabs was furious. He whipped the stone in front of him with his whip and said through gritted teeth, "I should have known a long time ago that these guys are unreliable."
It's a pity that the battle was unsuccessful. Facing enemies several times larger than his own, Prince Jabs's guards began to fall one by one, and those Valley City valuables also suffered many casualties.
In the rear, Kachis was riding on a horse, silently looking at the flaming battlefield in the distance with a telescope, and then giving orders to the messenger rider beside him.
If he led a large number of Knight to the battlefield and participated in the battle ahead, he would definitely win quickly, but he didn't want to do that.
"You have to live a good life, Prince Jabs." He read this sentence and raised the corners of his mouth.
On the battlefield ahead, many of Prince Jabs's guards died in the hands of those Valley City nobles, and the encirclement was constantly shrinking. If we retreat at this time, we will reach the place where Hundred-Eye Cult held the ceremony.
"You're not feeling well yet?" Hundred-Eye Cult saw that the person never showed up or took action, Prince Jabs was shocked and angry.
But at this time, he no longer had the energy to blame or curse.
The leader, Anti Soldier, had already rushed to the front. They were wearing simple chain-mail blouses, holding a shield in one hand and a standard long sword in the other, splitting the horses blocking the way, and kept shouting.
"Prince Jabs is here!"
"Prince Jabs is right in front!"
"Kill him and you'll get a knighthood!"
"Kill!"
Such sounds were heard one after another in the woods, making Jabs feel frightened and frightened. He looked around in a panic, then pulled out the long sword and held it in his hand, and moved back slowly.
The few remaining loyal soldiers will surround him with shields and keep retreating to resist the incoming bows and arrows.
At this time, the messenger rider from the rear arrived and whispered a few words next to the officer in charge of the forward command. Then the officer waved with a strange expression, asking the Anti soldiers to stop temporarily, and then asked the Valley City soldiers to step forward.
"Come on, take Prince Jabs!"
"This..."
"Yes." Although they were a little hesitant, they also knew that they had no choice now.
Anyway, we have already taken action and are already fighting Prince Jabs's army. Why not take the prince's head and ask the Anti people for a benefit. Maybe they can also become Anti Kingdom's nobles.
With this in mind, the noble people of Valley City stepped forward and gradually surrounded Prince Jabs in a semicircle, approaching little by little.
Facing these traitors, Prince Jabs was so angry that he wanted to laugh, but the panic that was rising in his heart was forced to suppress.
"You despicable people are destined to not be welcomed by anyone!" It was rare for this prince to say something strong and make his subordinates proud.
Although the Prince Jabs were unbearable and suffered repeated defeats, they did not surrender to the enemy like dogs. However, these noble Valley Citys in front of them completely gave up their former glory and oaths, became cannon fodder for the Anti people, and massacred their former allies.
Faced with the accusations, these Valley City nobles only felt that they were not human beings inside and outside, but at this time, they had no choice but to bite the bullet, hoping to kill this prince quickly and shut him up.
As long as everyone in this camp dies tonight, no one will know about their ugliness.
With such emotions, they began to fight hard and strive to kill the prince who was under heavy protection.
At this time, the scene of swords interlacing and blood flying was getting closer and closer to Prince Jabs, and his calves began to tremble.
"Jabs!" A familiar voice came from behind Jabs. It was the voice of Princess Musa.
The princess with blond hair and black dress rushed to Prince Jabs regardless of the obstruction from her subordinates, hugged him, and then turned around.
"Please don't give up. I know this is very difficult, but it is also Regas's last bloodline and hope." She lifted up her skirt, bent down heavily, then clasped Jabs's fingers, blocking him in front of him to strengthen her brother's faith, and finally shelter him from the wind and rain.
"Sister..." Jabs's eyes froze for a moment. His figure was temporarily blocked by Princess Musa, so that he did not have to face the fierce rebels on the opposite side.
A long-lost sense of security arose in his heart, which also brought a bit of shame. He rarely had this emotion, but it was different today.
Behind the camp, the ceremonial beam of light finally dissipated. Just as Princess Musa watched the rebels in front getting closer and closer, with their hearts beating rapidly and nervously, the members of Hundred-Eye Cult finally walked out of the magic circle in the woods behind them.
Under the command of this group of sect members in dark red robes, purple-red rays passed through the forest, shooting and piercing enemies who stepped into the camp.
The situation on the battlefield suddenly changed drastically. At this time, a large number of Valley Citys who were rushing forward died. The remaining people no longer had the courage to face the evil monster that was not like a human being, and they retreated and ran away screaming.
At this time, the Anti officer had no intention of lecturing the fleeing Valley City nobles. Instead, he frowned tightly and asked the adjutant beside him to blow a special horn.
The low sound of the horn stood out in the night and spread continuously.
After receiving the signal, the cavalry formation at the rear began to move out. They advanced along the clean passage, and continued to increase speed, and the galloping bodies became one. Then Knight at the front raised his lance, and the sharp triangular arrow curtain spread. Invisible protection fell on each cavalry. They were all wearing silver armor, and their spears were like blazing.
Like a long silver dragon with shining scales, it split open the dark night and inserted itself into the forefront of the battlefield.
