85 The Judgment of the Seven Sons (8)
The fierce battle on the stone bridge ended with the arrival of the two riders dressed in servants. The enemies who were constantly attacking retreated from the battlefield like waves after hearing the loud trumpets. Then they fought with a blonde rider who was coming from afar for a long time, yelling at each other for a long time, and finally unwilling to retreat.
When everything was settled, the survivors were still a little stunned, as if they couldn't believe what was happening in front of them.
However, at Lan Li's reminder, these people woke up one after another and began to quickly clean up the battlefield.
But while everyone was busy, they couldn't help but look at the tall existence with a silver mail coat.
In fact, the current image is a bit funny. The mail on his body is obviously tight and not fit. The legs tied with his legs are not suitable for combat boots, not to mention the large number of armor and weapons hanging on the black war horse he was riding. Overall, he doesn't look like a decent person, but rather a robber mercenary who made a fortune.
But this guy who looks like a robber made all surviving people feel grateful and awe.
The entire battle seemed to be less than ten minutes long, but the team of more than 200 people was left at this time, and most of them were injured.
But if it weren't for the big blonde, or if it weren't for the risk of capturing two enemy leaders, no one of them would have thought of living.
"The first thing Lemon discovered was an insider."
When he helped up a wounded man, a surviving rally member said to his companions: "He is brave and smarter."
"Like a real knight." The companion answered.
...
However, although the joy of "victory" has occupied a place in the hearts of survivors, the dead companions can make them feel the cruelty of fate.
Those who had been talking and laughing with them not long ago will never be able to speak again. The atmosphere on the surface of the stone bridge, which is full of blood, is gradually dull and even silent.
More than 200 people were reduced to less than 30. Although some people fled before the battle began, the majority of people died.
Everyone has someone familiar with them who die in this encounter, good friends, relatives, colleagues, and even wives and children...
The only leader of the poor gathering was the bearded Hak, who was still weak and seemed to die at any time. The civilians who had no combat power were basically killed or injured, and even Renli was affected.
He didn't know many people, but whether it was Lao Wot who had made him sleep in a ox cart and recuperating in a wardrobe, his red-haired son who pulled the cart, or even the young man who had been with him later, he had turned into a cold corpse.
Or, even the corpse is not very complete.
At the same time, the Lelin Knight, who had originally given him great expectations, was also turned out from the blood of the corpse mountain. The silver-plated armor was covered with blood, and some joints and under the ribs were covered with wounds, and blood was constantly flowing.
Fortunately, due to the protection of the armor, the old man was still breathing, but it was very weak, and it was not clear whether he could still wake up.
This made Lan Li's slightest disappear without a trace, and he felt very heavy in the face of this cruel war.
In a bad situation, the only thing that is thankful is that they have two prisoners in hand, so there is no need to worry that those enemies will still run up-
Although the shadow of the enemy scout was still faintly visible in the distance.
They speeded up as a result.
After cleaning up the battlefield and saving some companions who had not really died, the survivors rushed to bury their victims and then set off on their way again.
...
The ox that pulled the ox cart was dead, but some of the horses that the enemy did not have time to take away when retreating made it much more convenient for the survivors.
So not only did the Laowott's ox cart be used again, but the remaining people were basically able to ride in two or two without having to walk.
"When I arrive at King's Landing, I will report your affairs to the Bishop, Lemon, maybe this will make you a knight."
On the way that afternoon, the bearded man, who was squeezed in the corner of the ox cart, was breathing heavily and spoke to the big blonde man riding his horse next to him. He obviously remembered the words that this newly joined companion initially claimed, wanting to become a knight and then join the son of the warrior.
Lan Li, who was riding a horse, nodded silently when he heard this.
In Westeros, if you want to become a knight, you can only make contributions except for receiving training since childhood, and the latter is the main way for civilians to advance.
Lan Li doesn't think she has made a great contribution this time, but it's better to have this hope than not.
The premise is that he can successfully bring these people to King's Landing.
Thinking of it, he turned his head and looked at the two prisoners behind the team who were tightly bound by ropes and staggered.
The two of them did not wear any heralds or things that revealed their family identities, and they were obviously cautious about this. No matter how the survivors interrogated them, they said nothing and acted very tough.
However, despite being strictly conservative about their own secrets, they were still full of horror when facing Renli, especially the brown-haired young man, who couldn't help screaming every time he was swept by Renli's eyes, obviously treating him as a demon.
"When they are sent to the temple, they won't speak if they don't believe it." Following Lan Li's gaze, he looked over there, and the big bearded man on the ox cart murmured with hatred.
"So many people have died, and someone must pay the price for it. Yes, they must pay the price! Then I will kill them with my own hands, and a single one left..."
He just murmured and fell into a sleepy state, his face looking very tired.
Seeing this, Lan Li shook her head, and then called two survivors not far away on a horse to take care of the seriously injured people on the ox cart. He ran to the front with his horse's belly.
At this time, with the help of others, he had already put on the plate armor he had obtained from the prisoners before. He was wearing the original clothes and silver mail inside, and rode on the war horse. Although the glazed green armor did not fit well, it was majestic and was the best combat power in the team.
Everyone else was injured, and it was obvious that they had been through a fierce battle.
However, if you want to talk about who is now in this team, it is still the blonde "Knight" who suddenly seems to be cheating and slick.
As the existence that saved all the survivors, Lanli has now jumped from a minion to a leader who can give orders-
No one claimed or appointed it, but the remaining poor members of the poor gathering always came to ask him for various opinions, and the remaining farmers in the team were the same.
But the parties involved were not satisfied with anything because of this, but instead felt quite troublesome.
There are a lot of old, weak and disabled people. Now there are only four or five who can fight except himself. There are still a few who can barely do it, but they can't be said to have much combat power.
At the same time, there is little hope for his own mission at present.
Although he got a complete set of knight equipment because of that battle, he didn't have to worry about this anymore, the rest, whether it was related skills or joining the Son of the Warrior, became confusing because of the coma of the old knight.
The only thing that can make Renley have hope now is the reward that this credit may bring.
