King: Start with tauren plowing

Chapter 135
The valley plain, located in the west of the Silver Fox Territory, has an offshoot of the Alps in the north, separating it from the Korimian steppe.On the south side, there is an east-west direction of the Barbarian Mountain Range, which separates it from the Baron Viscount's Barbarian Territory.

There is a river several meters wide in the area between the two mountains. It is called the Silver Fox River. It originates from the Alps, flows through the Silver Fox Castle, the Silver Fox Town, and the east-west valley plain, and finally merges into a lake.

Not far from the lake, stands a majestic and magnificent military castle - Valley Castle, which spans the gap between the two mountains and defends the valley plain.This used to be the castle where the Noxus family lived, but unfortunately, it is now the military castle of the Silver Fox family, and it is specially used to guard against the Winter Fortress, or the orcs who will break the Winter Fortress in the future.

Walking west for a few days from here, you can reach Winter Fortress.

When Viscount Silver Fox sent Akbar to attack Cold Winter Fortress, he took this route, because the terrain in this area is flat, which is very suitable for infantry regiments to march and raid.But it's a pity that Akbar had just arrived at River Valley Castle, and before he went out, he was forced to go back to support Silver Fox Castle.

At this time, the area was filled with a restless and frenzied atmosphere, and even the air carried a sweet smell of blood, which seemed to herald a bloody storm.

Tens of miles away from the valley castle, there is a huge camp, with tents rising and falling one after another.

The Noxus Second Corps, which was originally in charge of exploring the northeast, and the Noxus First Corps, which was responsible for exploring the southeast, gathered here.There are now a full three thousand Noxian soldiers in this camp.

There were deafening shouts outside the camp, and column after column of soldiers was displayed on the plain, and they were undergoing daily drills, including but not limited to marching, array maneuvers, spear stabbing, etc.Because the two major infantry regiments of Noxus have newly joined [-] recruits, so they need to practice well.

The two armies competed with each other in this training, one ran three laps, and the other ran five laps. For a while, the soldiers were training in full swing.

In the tent in the center of the camp, there were the three-meter-tall Tauren Henry and the 1.7-meter-eight Abdelkader. The two major army leaders, one large and one small, sat opposite each other.

"The Lord Baron is coming." Abdelkad said first.

The tauren Henry replied vigorously: "I know, and the priest has recruited another thousand recruits."

"Yes, there is also the centaur cavalry regiment." Abdekad couldn't help but said: "The baron established the third Noxus legion, which is the centaur cavalry regiment."

"Well, I know, the Tusk tribe just surrendered. The priest recruited the centaurs to form a legion."

Both of them looked forward to the arrival of Lord Baron, to be exact, the third Noxus Legion—the Centaur Cavalry Regiment.

Because there is a very elite knight group outside now, their number is about forty or fifty, and they are hostile to them.

Abudkad sent fifty centaurs to investigate the origins of this group of knights, but they were killed and defeated.

As a result, only ten out of fifty came back.

Regarding the origin of this group of people, Abdekad already had a general idea in his mind.It is estimated that it is the Knights after the rebellion of the Tulip family.

After all, according to the information he already knew, this group of knights were all wearing iron armor, and there were several first-order extraordinary knights, and the leader was an extraordinary knight who condensed the seeds of life.

And he, Abdelkader, was just a high-ranking knight attendant, not even a first-order extraordinary knight.

With such a big gap, he really doesn't have the confidence to defeat these knights, and now he can only wait for Baron Charles.

At this time, Shire, whom Abdelkad was thinking of, was rushing towards him, accompanied by four hundred and a half centaur cavalry and a thousand recruits.They set off from Winter Fortress and headed westward.

The terrain is flat, which is very suitable for the centaur cavalry to march, especially since these centaur are all nailed with horseshoes, even if they run for half a day, they don't need to worry about the wear of the horseshoes.Therefore, Shire's team was very long, and the centaur cavalry ran to a place more than ten miles away to investigate.

Because the infantry are all recruits, although they have high fighting spirit, they have never seen blood or experienced war. For them, war is still an extremely romantic and beautiful thing, representing money and status.They never imagined that they would die like weeds.

They are weaker in combat, probably stronger than serf legions, but weaker than orc legions.

So be careful when marching, and don't let the enemy touch you.But in fact, they are now in the hinterland of the Kingdom of Sisinoa, and it is basically impossible for them to encounter the orcs in the north, so this march is equivalent to a military exercise.

Behind this team, the transport team led by Bruno will also return from the Blackstone Mountains, transport food from Winter Fortress, and then come to support near the valley plain to reduce the food pressure of the Noxus Corps.

Judging from the current strength of Noxus, this time, there should be 6000 to 4000 people gathered in the valley plain, and there are more than [-] formal full-time soldiers.

Suddenly, a centaur came over and reported to Charles: "My lord, there is a knight order in the southern region more than 30 miles away from us. .”

Charles gave a "hmm" and asked, "Who found out?"

Generally speaking, centaurs are far away if they run more than ten miles away. Now there are centaurs who run more than 30 miles away, which really makes Charles curious.

"It's the leader of the Bilair Legion. He is in charge of the search in the southern area." The centaur replied.

"Don't disturb them yet." Charles looked at the centaur and ordered, "Tell Biller to take someone to inform Abdekad and Henry, and let them lead the Noxus army over."

"Yes, my lord the baron."

The centaur turned and left immediately after hearing his order.

Charles and the others had just marched for a few days, and they were still very close to Winter Fortress.But suddenly a group of knights appeared, they were still armored knights, which made people feel worried.

Because this Knight Order is too threatening to their Winter Fortress.Now the military strength of the Winter Fortress is outside, what if they raid the Winter Fortress?
Such a group of knights, in the area so close to Winter Fortress, did not notify them of the Noxus family in advance, and the Shire will be treated as the enemy. For the enemy, Noxus has only one rule, that is, the long Spears were stuffed into their mouths.

After giving the order, Charles ordered the soldiers to stop marching and set up camp.

On the one hand, it is to recuperate, so that the soldiers can recover from the exhausted march and have strength when it comes to fighting.On the other hand, Shire is also waiting for the arrival of Henry and Abdekad.

A few days later, Abdekad and Henry arrived with the two major armies of Noxus.

Now there are a total of more than 4000 people here, including centaur cavalry, tauren warriors, and human soldiers.This is a legion of three races mixed together.

After the arrival of the two major armies of Noxus, the soldiers had a hearty meal at noon and set off in the afternoon.

Due to the short time, Charles did not mix his newly recruited recruits into the two legions. Now the thousand recruits maintain their formation together, and the two infantry regiments maintain their formation with a regiment of 500 men. More than 400 people and a half.

This group of knights seemed to have lost something here, and they didn't leave. They just wandered around every day, and they would only move their nests after they had walked all around.During the few days of waiting, they did not travel fifty miles.

With centaur cavalry acting as eyes, Charles quickly found the trace of this knight.They ran from the southeast to the south, which was a little closer to them.

Although Shire discovered them first, the terrain here is flat, their numbers are small and elite, and they are very flexible. It is impossible to sneak attack.It is estimated that it will be discovered by the scout knights of the opponent if it is close to the area of ​​several miles.

So Charles chose the army to press on, with the Noxian Second Corps as the vanguard, the First Corps as the central army, and the recruits followed behind, doing some hard work of transporting food.

For a group of dozens of cavalry, it seems a bit exaggerated to go to war like this. The entire army of more than 4000 soldiers was dispatched just to defeat a knight group that was deeply alone, which seemed overkill.But that's exactly what Shire was aiming for.

From more than 1000 to more than 4000, the number of soldiers has tripled.The difficulty of management has also risen sharply.Charles felt that his head was about to explode with these more than 4000 soldiers.

Especially with different races, there is a lot of friction between soldiers, such as the simplest issue of defecation.Humans like to dig a hole, but the tauren are more stupid and like to solve it anywhere.Centaurs have four legs, and their structure is different from that of humans, because the toilets built by human soldiers are basically unusable for centaurs.

Not to mention the running-in of the three major legions, Abdekad, the head of the Noxus First Legion, was born as a bandit, with an arrogant and selfish personality.Tauren Henry, the head of the Second Noxus Legion, the chief of the original Hammer tribe, has a dull personality and likes to fight, Biller, the deputy head of the Third Noxus Legion, the original Tusk tribe the chief.

Although Biller took the lead in surrendering, he can only be a deputy legion commander. After all, the position of legion commander has already been booked, but he is not yet in Winter Fortress.

Tread~
The hooves of the hooves trampled on the solid ground of the frozen ground.

The centaur army spread out like a fan, besieging the enemies not far away.

The enemy seemed to have found their tracks, but instead of retreating, they got on their horses and put on their armor, as if they were going to fight them.

Are these people out of their minds?
There are only a few dozen of them, and Noxus has more than 4000 people, and they dare to fight back.Although they would be chased to death by centaurs if they ran, there was always some hope of escape.

The battle is imminent.

Charles stood watching from a distance, and saw that the leader of the enemy was wearing armor and holding a spear, stabbing several centaur knights to death one after another.In addition to the leading knight, there are several other knights who are equally brave. The centaur cavalry can't last a round in their hands, and most of them die when they meet each other.

After a short contact, more than a dozen centaur knights fell to the ground.

There are both the strength of the enemy and the gap in equipment. The enemies are all wearing armor, while the centaurs have nothing but their own fur.

At this time, Abdekad came up and said: "My lord baron, this group of people should be the tulip knights who rebelled."

Charles nodded. This group of people is well-equipped and highly skilled in martial arts, and they are not at the same level as the previous Silver Fox Cavalry.Dozens of people actually pressed more than 400 centaurs.Such an elite army needs a large number of Jinnar to be able to feed it.

Jinnar couldn't possibly have fallen from the sky.

At this time, the front of the battlefield.

The spear in the hand of the scarred-faced butcher knight pierced into the body of the centaur. He pulled it out forcefully, only to find that the spear was firmly stuck in the body of the centaur that had fallen to the ground.

He had no choice but to let go, drew a spare spear from the horse's belly, and stabbed to death a centaur knight who wanted to sneak up on him.

At this time, his body was covered with pale golden fighting spirit, which protected him like a protective shield. With a trace of fanatical flush on his face, he shouted: "Follow me to charge and kill these traitors who have betrayed the holy light!" .”

Dozens of knights gathered around, surrounded the butcher knights, and they also had a trace of fanaticism on their faces, and they shouted: "All for the Holy Light!"

Afterwards, these knights rushed towards the Noxus infantry regiment as if they had been drugged.

Tread~
The horse's hooves stomped heavily on the ground.

These knights lined up in a cone shape, like a sharp arrow, shot at the Noxian infantry.

Abudkad said with some concern: "My lord, there are several extraordinary knights in this knight regiment. I am afraid that the soldiers in the front row will not be able to stop them."

Perhaps in response to these few words, as soon as Abdekad finished speaking, the knights wrapped in fighting spirit collided fiercely with the Noxus legion in the front row.The knights in the front row were easily pierced like paper.

But Shire didn't panic, he said confidently: "If extraordinary knights are invincible, then why do we spend so much effort to build an army."

At this time, the situation on the battlefield has changed. After the extraordinary knights broke through the first few rows of defenses, they found that the enemy did not flee, but organized a counterattack.

This situation is undoubtedly fatal to the knight. Although the knight is an extraordinary knight, the horse is not an extraordinary horse.

These horses were already very tired supporting the armor-piercing knights, but now that they had charged for a while, they were inevitably exhausted.

Therefore, the speed of the war horse dropped very quickly, and the knight without speed was trapped in the Noxus army again. The result can be imagined.

Many knights' war horses were hacked to death by Noxus soldiers, and then the knights supported on them fell to the ground and were trampled to death.

But what shocked Shire was that even though they had no chance of winning and were certain to die, none of them surrendered yet, and instead continued to fight Noxus with a frenzy.
