Chapter 73, the battle comes because of you
Gu held the spear in his hand, an old spear seized from the aristocratic arsenal. Although the spear tip was still sharp, the spear rod was slightly bent, but this did not affect the battle. He never imagined that he could obtain such a weapon. The calluses on his palm were just grinding out with a farm tool.
"I wonder how the wheat in the field is like?" Gai joined the team of the Flagless Brotherhood in the village. At the beginning, he was dissatisfied and angry with the lord. In addition, the Flagless Brotherhood won several consecutive victories and seized a lot of food and wine from the noble manor, which made him really happy, who had never tasted the noble food.
But the good times did not last long. The battle to siege Schwartzburg allowed him to see the cruelty of the war. The companion who came out of the village was killed under the castle. Arrows shot through the companion's left eye, and the eyeballs flowed out with blood vessels. The terrible scene made him vomit even after vomiting overnight meals.
"Hurry, keep up." A small bearded leader, wearing a pair of leather gloves, held an iron sword in his hand, and his brown eyes were fierce, and he kept pushing his men.
"Hurry and don't stop." An elderly Flagless Brotherhood soldier beside Gai urged him that it was very dangerous to stop on the battlefield, either being shot by an enemy's arrow or being killed by an officer's sword.
"Hu, Hu, Hu, Hu." Gai held his spear, his eyes were full of confusion. From the beginning, he wanted to have a full meal to the desire to get some spoils with the Flagless Brotherhood. When he returned to his hometown, he could sell spoils and buy a piece of land to live a good life. But now he didn't think so much, and he thought more about living.
"Be careful, stone." Suddenly, the bearded little leader raised his head and looked at the sky. He shouted loudly, and the other soldiers of the Flagless Brotherhood scattered in horror.
"Ping Ping Ping Ping Ping Ping Ping Ping~~." Gai followed the crowd in a panic, but the stones really came down like rain. Once these terrible stones were hit, even if they had an iron helmet to protect their heads, they would be immediately stunned, let alone ordinary soldiers like them who had no armor.
"Uhhhh~~." The stone hit the human skin and flesh were blooming, but Gai was lucky. He actually avoided the stone while stumbled and fell. However, the soldier of the Flagless Brotherhood who was still reminding him was not so lucky. The stone hit his head. Gai felt that his cheeks were hot, and he touched it with his hand and it turned out to be blood.
"O God! Virgin Mary!" Gai felt dizzy and his eyes were full of red, but the little leader behind him pushed him.
"Don't stop damn, keep moving forward, their rocks are not that fast." The little leader gasped, and he shouted to the survivors.
On the hill, Rudolph looked at the flagless Brotherhood soldiers walking towards them, and the stone crossbows beside him reloaded the stones. The craftsmen turned the crankshaft and the bowstrings made a tight sound.
"Let it go~~."
"Let it go~~."
"Let it go~~."
The craftsmen almost didn't have to aim. They pulled out the wood chips, and the stone crossbow frame made a sound. The stone was ejected and landed on the enemy's heads. The stones smashed the ground and the Flagless Brotherhood warriors on the ground. They instinctively bent down to try to hide, but under the hill was a plain and open space with no place to hide. The trees were usually cut down in front of the castle to ensure the broad vision.
"Let the soldiers prepare to take the enemy." But the Flagless Brotherhood relied on its large number, they still urged the soldiers to advance towards Rudolf and others.
"Yes." Rodney and Taylor nodded. They pressed the sword around their waists and looked at the dense enemies, thinking that this time it would be a big tough battle.
"Doudu." Lanbert blew the bronze whistle, and Rudolph's soldiers were solemn.
"Long Ge's hand moves forward and arranges the array." Lanbert lowered his copper whistle and ordered loudly.
"Roar, roar, roar~~." The long-ge hands lined up in two rows, bent down, and the people in the first row inserted the tail end of the long-ge on the ground, the tip of the ge was forty-five degrees on the ground, and the people in the back row raised the long-ge.
"Sword and Shield Hands Preparation."
"Roar, roar, roar~~." The soldiers holding swords and shields knelt on one knee on the ground. They hid on the left and right of Changge's hands, ready to support and attack the enemy at any time.
"Hu, Hu." Hans held a short sword in his hand. His thin figure was just hiding among the Changge's hands. The mud on his face was wiped from somewhere, which made him look dirty.
"Yeah." Lanbert glanced at Hans. Although Rudolph's army still uses Wu as an organizational unit, it will basically arrange the weapons when fighting in a brigade.
"Run, run." The party of the Brotherhood without Flags also found that they had to speed up to get close to the army on this hill, otherwise the stone crossbow would wipe out most of their people, so Benson ordered loudly.
"Run, run quickly." Taking advantage of the interval between the stone crossbow loading stones, the little leaders also began to urge their subordinates under Benson's order. They also knew that only by getting close can they take advantage of the large number of people.
"Hu, Hu, Hu, Hu, I really can't run." Gai felt that his legs were filled with lead, his abdomen was empty, and the spear in his hand could hardly be held. He cursed the enemies on the hills and did not even have the chance to give himself a meal.
Anthony was like a trapped lion. He walked back and forth in the camp, looking anxiously at his army and Benson in the distance. The enemy's stone crossbow was really terrifying and kept hitting stones on his head. The first wave of attacks on the camp unknowingly planted fear in the hearts of the soldiers. A little movement would make the soldiers instinctively lower their heads and lie on the ground, which delayed the speed of the attack.
"O God! They are such a group of angels." On the wall of the castle, Sir Buckhouse and others burst into laughter. They looked at the abominable rebels, who were beaten by stones on the hills and burst into tears.
"Can you tell who is leading the army?" Baron Hedwig held his left hand in leather gloves against the wall, and he looked into the distance and asked Sir Buckhouse.
"It should be Rudolph, the eldest son of Count Schwartz, whom someone recognized him in the castle." Sir Buckhouse sided, and Jenny wearing a headscarf stood on the wall. Her eyes looked into the distance were filled with worry.
"Do you know Lord Rudolph?" Baron Hedwig asked Jenny curiously.
"Yes, I know him." Jenny nodded, she was sure that the nobleman on the hill was Rudolph, the eldest son of Count Schwartz.
"Ah, I thought he had escaped, but I didn't expect that he would appear at this time. This is really God's will." Sir Buckhouse said with a laugh.
"Just, let the knights prepare." Baron Hedwig suddenly said to Sir Buckhouse.
"how?"
"We take the opportunity to rush out of the castle and cannot let the count's heirs fall into a tough battle." Baron Hedwig said to Sir Buckhouse.
"The Knights are exhausted." Sir Buckhouse frowned, and his memory was still fresh in his memory when he left the castle for the first time.
"They are equally tired," Baron Hedwig glanced at the Flagless Brotherhood Army outside the castle and said to Sir Buckhouse.
"I understand, let's have a big fight." Sir Buckhouse slapped the sword around his waist and nodded.
