Chapter 1154: The Winged Cavalry Regiment Arrives
Passing travelers.
If you arrive in the Duchy of Connaught.
Please tell the people there.
We will keep our oath to defend the Empire of Britannia until death.
——An inscription commemorating the aid of the Winged Cavalry Regiment in the Battle of Pendragon, carved on a monument erected in Pendragon City after the war/This inscription has been included in the history textbooks of later generations.
——Am I going to die...
Looking at the increasingly dilapidated defense line below, Darlene couldn't help but feel pessimistic in her heart.
Darlene could tell at a glance that the defense line was about to be unable to hold up. Maybe before nightfall today, the rebels would be able to break into the Central Coach Station.
For Darlene and others who had no choice but to retreat, their entire army would be annihilated when the carriage station was breached...
As long as the terrain is open enough and the weapons in hand are good enough, a member of the Delan Undead Team like Darlene may be able to fight 5, or even 10.
But can they hit 100 or 1,000?
No matter how tough the members of the Delan Immortal Team were, they felt powerless in the face of this tidal wave of rebels.
Darlene felt that this was the closest she had been to death since she could remember.
The death threat she felt during the most dangerous battle she had fought before - the landing at Bishui Port was not as strong as it was now.
Despite the realization that she might be dying, Darlene felt strangely calm.
I didn't feel much fear or panic.
Surprisingly... quite peaceful.
Some people's faces appeared in Darlene's mind one by one.
Darlene thought of her parents, her best friend Yara in the military, and how she had been traumatized during the Aurora offensive two years ago and had to leave the army and return home. Senior Lina whom I met.
At the same time... she also thought of the civilians of the Holy Shiran Empire who died at her hands during the "Aurora" offensive two years ago, whose names she didn't even know and who had no enmity against them...
——It’s better to die here...
——So many innocent civilians died in my hands.
——Died in a bloody battlefield... This kind of ending is suitable for people like me...
Darlene, who silently prepared herself for realization, reached out her right hand to the hilt of the sword on her left waist.
"Hey, everyone who can move, please prepare your weapons." Darlene said in a calm tone, while slowly pulling out the sword at her waist, "When the enemy rushes in, those who can still move, Just follow me until the end."
——Even if you die, let’s die a little more handsome!
Darlene, who had already made up her mind to die, the light bursting out of her eyes was like the light of a burning flame.
But—at this moment, a loud shout came clearly into Darlene’s ears:
"Hey! Look! Look at the horizon to the west outside the city!"
The speaker was a soldier dressed as a scout.
Alyssa, Enri, and Jacob—all three of them have placed several scouts with excellent eyesight at the highest point of their respective defense areas.
These scouts have only one mission - to monitor the movements outside the city, and immediately notify Alyssa and others once reinforcements arrive.
——The horizon to the west outside the city?
Darlene happened to be standing next to the window sill, so she turned her body slightly to one side and successfully leaned out of the window.
The clock tower of the Central Coach Station is one of the tallest buildings in Pendragon. Darlene and others who happen to be on the top floor of this clock tower naturally have a good view.
Other injured patients who were some distance away from the window sill also leaned over and looked out the window.
"Where? Where? Where is the west?!"
"There! That's the west!"
"Huh? Why didn't I see anything?"
"I can't see at all..."
"Too far! I can't see anything!"
…
Because of the distance, some people with poor eyesight could not see clearly what was happening on the western horizon outside the city.
Although Darlene's eyesight was not as good as those of the elite scouts whose eyesight was exaggeratedly good, Darlene could still barely see what was happening on the horizon to the west outside the city.
On the western horizon outside the city, a thin, constantly moving black line appeared...
…
…
Britannia Empire, Pendragon, somewhere to the west outside the city.
"Pendragon has not fallen..." Ron, whose face was full of uncontrollable excitement, murmured in a low voice at a volume that only he could hear clearly, "It's really great... let's catch up. ”
Behind Ron were the winged cavalry that had been integrated into a wedge formation.
Except for the occasional snort from the horse under his crotch, there was no other movement in the huge wedge-shaped formation composed of winged cavalry behind Ron.
The winged cavalry all closed their mouths and silently clenched their lances, waiting for the order to be issued.
The two "wings" behind them made hunting sounds when blown by the wind.
…
…
Britannia Empire, Pendragon, rebel position on the Western Wall.
"Coach!"
In the rebel position of the Western City Wall, a scout reported anxiously to the general command center of the Western City Wall Rebels.
"An unknown army was detected in the west!"
"Army?!"
The commander-in-chief of the Western Wall rebels took a deep breath, and then hurriedly climbed up to the watchtower closest to him.
Standing on the watchtower, looking towards the west.
Although the distance was a bit far, he could still see clearly - in the west, a large number of cavalry had formed a wedge formation.
The tip of this huge "wedge" was pointed straight at him.
To be more precise, it was aimed at them who were responsible for besieging the western wall of Pendragon.
The blood on his face disappeared instantly, and he immediately shouted hoarsely to the messengers guarding under the watchtower:
"Enemy attack!! A large number of enemy cavalry appeared in the west! Quickly inform the whole army! Prepare the spear formation!!"
...
...
"Your Excellency the Duke."
Ron's general, Hans, rode his horse slowly towards Ron.
"All troops are in place."
"Yes." After receiving this report from Hans, Ron nodded gently.
Then, Ron slowly drew out the sword on his left waist.
Ron's drawing of the sword was like a signal.
After receiving Ron's signal, the winged cavalrymen behind Ron put down their lances that were originally pointed at the sky.
Clamp the lance under the armpit and point the lance tip forward.
"All troops, listen to the order--" Ron raised the sword in his hand high.
Then--
"Charge!"
Swung it down suddenly.
Woo--! Woo--! Woo--! Woo--!
The sharp and piercing sound of the horn rang out.
The sound of the horn became louder and louder.
In this urging horn sound, the war horses under the crotch of the winged cavalrymen took small steps and gradually accelerated.
The several-meter-long lances in their hands, under the sunlight, combined into dazzling light waves.
Waves of awe-inspiring murderous aura emanated from the winged cavalrymen, and then pressed towards the rebels under the walls of Pendragon West.
