Knight Ngor took the lead and led the 100 plate-armored knights gathered together by various nobles and rushed to the front. Following behind were a large number of infantry soldiers who could not keep up.
Knight Ngor has lost his ability to think by the promise of the "baron". At this time, his mind was full of how to catch up with the peasant uprising army as soon as possible, and then start a massacre to establish unparalleled merits...
Along the way, all kinds of garbage, even poop, left by the peasant army when they retreated... These directly pointed out the direction of pursuit for the Knights of Ngor - it was right in front...
In fact, these garbage and even poop on the road were traces deliberately left by Kasbar at Wolf's suggestion, so as not to find the right route. But now it seems that the effect is indeed very obvious.
After chasing outside the valley, Knight Ngor and the 100 plate armored knights he led suddenly stopped. On the hillside, Kasbar, Wolf and others were so scared that their hearts almost fell out. They thought they had been discovered by the other party, so Kasbar almost couldn't help but order an attack. In the end, Wolf grabbed him.
In fact, Ngor and his party just couldn't stand it because of the war horses. After all, the war horses that carry plate armored knights in Europe have strong explosive power, but they have no endurance. After running for a distance, they have to rest for a while. Moreover, these 100 knights have already left the large army behind because they run too fast.
After resting, the large infantry troops behind also caught up. Then, the 100 plate-armored knights took the lead and took the rest of the infantry into the canyon...
"Do you do it?" Casbar humbly asked Wolf for advice.
Wolf shook his head and said:
"Let's talk about it when they all come in. Wait a moment, our most powerful group of people will specifically attack the 100 plate-armored knights in front!"
Casbar suddenly felt a little unconfident:
"Can we really beat those knights? They are all skilled in martial arts..."
Wolf said without raising his head:
"Don't worry, we have specially organized a warhammer team to professionally restrain the Knights of the Plate Armor. At that time, let the brothers who use the sledgehammer specifically greet the Knights' heads. If the heads are hit hard, it will be useless even if they wear Plate Armor!"
The Warhammer Team is composed of a group of blacksmiths. Kasbal was originally a blacksmith who was good at casting knives, and naturally there were many blacksmiths. In this uprising, the blacksmith was also a backbone force, with forty or fifty people. These blacksmiths were all masters of hammers, so it was basically difficult to miss it.
In addition, at the beginning, the peasant uprising army would throw stones down. After a wave of flowing down, it would always take away some knights.
When Ngor led the 100 Knights to the place near the exit in front of the canyon, Wolf nodded and said:
"It's OK!"
Then, Casbar himself rang a bronze bell with him...
"Bang—Bang—"
The Knight Ngor who was walking in the canyon and the noble private soldiers behind him were stunned - where did the bells come from in this unmanned canyon?
Just as they were stunned, the peasant uprising soldiers who received the signal had already smashed the stones that had been built on the hillside down. Especially at the entrance of the valley and the tail of the valley, the stones were like rain...
The first one to be hit was probably the Knight Ngor who was walking in the front. I saw a rain of stones flying over him...
Knight Ngor was stunned, but Shizhuo didn't stand there and greeted him directly...
The Knight Ngor turned his head and dodged, but it was a rain of stones and could not escape. Then, the Knight Ngor, a famous general in the Principality of Württemberg, was hit by N stones in a frustration. As for the specific cause of death, it was that the stone hit his head, which directly caused his neck to be broken, causing him to die on the spot...
Seeing the head general being "headshot" by a rain of stones, the 100 Plate Armor Knight following behind was stunned - the boss died at the beginning, how can we play?
But those who threw stones on the mountain would not be stunned. They returned the target and began to throw these plate-armored knights on horseback...
For a moment, people in the valley were rushing up and horses were wailing, and screams and whine of horses came...
"Isn't it a pity? Those war horses are worth hundreds of Gulden gold coins!" Casbar said reluctantly.
Wolf rolled his eyes directly:
"No need to hit the stone, can we fight against those 100 knights? Leader, do you think our more than a thousand "elite soldiers" (the essence of the peasant army) can beat 100 knights who are intact and still ride on war horses?"
Kasbar was right when he thought about it. If these 100 plate-armored knights were intact and still rode on war horses, it was estimated that a charge would destroy more than 1,000 most elite troops of the peasant uprising army. At that time, let alone victory, it would be good to save your life. And the core of the 2,000 noble private troops in the canyon was the 100 plate-armored knights. The soldiers and horses behind were all assisted by these 100 knights, and their combat effectiveness was much worse.
Therefore, Kasbal could only look at the precious war horses that were howling by flying stones, while happily watching the plate-armored knights who were hit by stones...
As for the auxiliary soldiers behind, Kasbar really doesn't care much. Anyway, those are cannon fodder soldiers, not much better than the peasant uprising army. With such a huge gap in numbers, he doesn't think those auxiliary soldiers can make waves...
This is true. The plate-armored knights who were taking care of the rain of stones in front were still dodging left and right, and even tried their best to avoid the stones and find cover. The more than 1,800 auxiliary soldiers behind were shocked when they saw the tragic experience of the rider in front. Although the stone attacks they encountered were not as good as those plate-armored knights, they were in a mess first...
...
When the stones on the hillside were smashed, there were only about 30 plaque knights with combat power below, and they all had no horses. Some war horses were directly smashed into meat paste by the rain of stones. Only plaque knights, because they were wearing plate armor, as long as they were not hit on the head and other vital points, they could still deal with it...
Seeing that the stone was gone, Kasbar also stood up and said loudly:
"Brothers, rush! Kill these noble lackeys!"
Then, Kasbar, wearing plate armor, personally picked up a big sword with his hands and rushed down...
Seeing that the boss was taking the lead in rushing, the others naturally followed suit, holding various weapons and even farm tools, rushing down from the hillside...
The first to make a breakthrough was the noble militia recruited from various noble manors, who collapsed first. Faced with enemies that were several times higher than their own, these people were directly afraid, and many people threw down their weapons and surrendered. There were also lucky people who were lucky enough to cross the "dividing wall" piled up by the stones thrown from the mountain. After they climbed over the "dividing wall" made of stones, they fled to Stuttgart.
The militia led by more than 1,800 nobles behind were soon defeated by the peasant uprising army that had the advantage. Even if some elites were still resisting, they could not make a big wave.
On the contrary, the only thirty plate-armored knights left in the front, after losing their war horses, leaned together and fought stubbornly.
They first used a long oak rifle to rush to Casbar and others who rushed up, but the oak rifle was easy to break. After they tried hard, the front end of the oak rifle broke one after another. Then, their oak rifle turned into a very thick short stick...
At this time, the rest of the rifle will not be easily broken. After all, the front end is easy to break, and it is designed by the rifle itself to absorb the recoil force, and the front end is even deliberately hollow for this.
But the broken rear end of the rifle is solid and can be used as a short stick. Of course, it is much longer than the average short stick, and it can be about one meter long.
Then, these stubborn plate-armored knights, relying on their own characteristics of not being afraid of weapons, used thick wooden sticks of medium length to defeat the "elite" of the peasant uprising army that besieged them...
