Chapter 677: Climbing the Peak and Breaking the Line (Part 2)
Among the Michael Knights under the command of Su Cheng, the bravest man should be Raymond Weir.
——The consensus of all historians who will study the history of the Michael Knights in the future
The horse's hooves were as fierce as the storm, trampling on the rocks and hard ground.
The cavalry of the Michael Knights, all wearing black armor, formed a terrifying black wave and rushed towards the camp of the Hiran Army's vanguard.
Several small groups of patrols and sentries serving as security guards outside the camp were unable to escape and were instantly engulfed by the "black waves", without even a single wave splashing.
The 3,000 cavalry who launched the surprise attack were all cavalry from the 1st Corps of the Knights of Michael. The 1st Corps Cavalry, trained by Raymond, was also recognized as the most elite cavalry in the regiment.
At this moment, these 3,000 cavalrymen lived up to their title of "the most elite in the regiment".
In an instant, they rushed into the outskirts of the camp of the Xilan Army's vanguard force, which had no time to be alert.
After storming the outskirts of the camp, the cavalrymen picked up their crossbows.
A swarm of black locusts rose up from the horses' backs and pounced towards the Xilan army camp in an instant.
The Xilan soldiers in the camp were caught off guard and were all shot through by crossbow bolts, falling into a pool of blood one after another.
Some soldiers with quick reactions quickly raised their shields to block the rain of arrows.
After throwing a hail of arrows at the Xilan Army camp, the black "wave" hit the white camp.
The cavalrymen put away their crossbows and drew their lances.
The cavalry uses hundreds of cavalry as the most basic and smallest fighting unit. The 3,000 cavalry are divided into 30 small conical formations with hundreds of cavalry as units.
These 30 cone-shaped formations charged quickly and mercilessly penetrated the camp of the Xilan Army's vanguard force.
These cone-shaped formations are like sharp crossbow arrows and sharp swords, cutting out bloody paths.
Facing the sudden attack by the Michael Knights, the vanguard of the Hiran Army was completely stunned. They were not prepared for defense until the cavalry attacked their camp.
The cavalrymen who rushed into the Xilan Army camp, which had no time to take any precautions, were like hungry tigers plunging into the flock of sheep, indulging their desire to kill.
And Raymond is the most ferocious and brave one among these hungry tigers.
Raymond personally commanded one of these 30 small conical formations, charging in front, rushing left and right, plowing bloody roads.
More and more Xilan Army soldiers responded, picked up their weapons, and came to surround and kill them.
Looking at more and more enemies in front of him, Raymond showed no fear.
Raymond waved the ax gun in his hand as easily as if he were picking up a blade of grass. Wherever he went, the enemy formations retreated and dispersed into the waves.
The war horses owned by a knight of Raymond's level are naturally not ordinary.
The huge body of the black war horse under Raymond's crotch looks quite fat and strong, but without any excess fat. The thick black horse mane is flying on the neck. Its torso is also pitch black, and its four thick horse legs look so strong and powerful.
Although it is not as good as before the "Xia Feng" offensive started 2 years ago,
Ge Zewen gifted Su Cheng's "Xiaobai", but Raymond's horse can be regarded as one of the best horses in a million.
The figure carrying Raymond charging through the enemy formation was like black lightning.
Raymond had to slow down his horse so that the cavalry behind him could barely keep up with him.
In terms of foot combat, Raymond may not be Samuel's opponent, but in terms of cavalry combat, Raymond has never been afraid of anyone.
Raymond's ax gun was seen drawing an arc in the air, and the long and sharp ax blade had cut off the heads of the four people close to his right hand in one go.
When he waved again, three more people's heads fell to the ground.
Immediately afterwards, Raymond raised his ax gun again, and the sharp tip of the gun pierced the bodies of the two people.
While piercing the two people's bodies with the gun tip, Raymond easily took a spear stuck on the ground with his left hand and threw the spear forward.
The spear shot out from Raymond's hand and connected the front and back of the two people in front.
Raymond's bravery frightened the soldiers of the Xilan Army.
Raymond was invincible, and the war horse under his crotch didn't even linger. In an instant, it had torn apart the enemy formations in front of him, and the cavalry following Raymond further tore open the enemy's gap opened by Raymond. .
Facing the wolf-like Raymond, all the Xilan soldiers who happened to be in front of Raymond were all demoralized and fled in all directions.
At this moment, a tall, strong man riding a horse and wearing the armor of the Hiran army rushed toward Raymond.
Tall and strong man: "%*&¥¥#x-on:%x-on: (%¥x-on:¥%x-on:%x-on:!!"
Raymond: "..."
The two of them didn't speak the same language, and Raymond only thought he was noisy.
Because he couldn't understand Xilan, Raymond didn't pay attention to what the tall and strong man was saying, but looked at the tall and strong man quickly.
The armor on this tall and strong man and the war horse under his crotch were not ordinary goods, so Raymond concluded: this tall and strong man must be a big fish!
After finally encountering a big fish, Raymond will naturally not let it go.
Raymond raised the ax gun in his hand and attacked the tall and strong man.
This tall and strong man's fighting skills are also very good. Faced with Raymond's attack, he quickly reacted and raised the thick lance in his hand, preparing to defend.
But - Raymond's fighting skills are even better than his.
Raymond's slash was just a false attack. When the tall and strong man raised his lance, Raymond changed his attack in time.
The butt of the ax gun hit his wrist.
This powerful and heavy blow directly caused the tall and strong man to release his lance.
The next moment, Raymond's ax blade cut across half an arc, slashing towards the tall and strong man's unprotected neck.
The sharp ax blade sliced through his skin, muscles, bones...
He directly cut off this tall and strong man.
After the tall and strong man was beheaded in the formation, the Xilan Army soldiers around him all looked horrified.
——Judging from the expressions of the Xilan Army soldiers, this guy is really a big fish.
Raymond thought to himself.
Soon enough, at this moment, a big sword cut through the air and slashed at Raymond from the side.
Raymond's pupils shrank suddenly, and he raised the ax gun in his hand like a reflex, and used the gun shaft in time to block the slash of the big sword.
The powerful force spread along the barrel of the gun to Raymond's arms.
Raymond, who was startled by the powerful force, looked along the sword, intending to catch a glimpse of the owner of the sword.
The owner of this big sword is a strong man who is not inferior to him, Raymond, in terms of stature.
This fierce man had short brown hair and was riding a not very good war horse. While Raymond was fighting the tall and strong man just now, he rushed from the side of Raymond and waved the big sword in his hand towards Lei Meng. Meng cut him head-on.
Perhaps because he didn't expect Raymond to be able to defend against his attack, the brown-haired man looked surprised, and then said to Raymond in half-baked Britannia with a weird accent:
"Kan Lai, you are a defender (it seems you are a master)."
Because he did not expect that this brown-haired man could speak Britannia, Raymond raised his eyebrows, and then said in a half-joking tone:
"Aren't you the same?"
