Chapter 180 Thundercloud Storm
Three days later.
In the main hall of Bishuigao Castle, Ren Gao sat in the master's position, and a large map of Glamorgan territory was spread out on the table in front of him. Pansill and Badmond were on the left, and Emilys and others from the Dragon Stone Mercenary Group were on the right.
Sikalius and Otto stood behind him like two tall statues.
Although I often see them these days, Emilys, Pansil and others were full of curiosity about these Makuragers and frequently looked at them.
Even if you don’t have to fight, you can still notice their extraordinaryness.
It would have been fine if it were just Sikalius and Gron who taught Zhuo's lesson that day, but every barbarian next to Rennes seemed to have terrible power, and an inexplicable transformation took place within a day.
They monopolize a martial arts training ground and exercise in it every day, so that outsiders can not watch it.
No one except Rennes himself knew their background.
Ren could see their thoughts, but it wasn't time for the Extreme Warrior to take action, and asked, "Madam, have your people come back yet?"
"Not yet," replied Emilys, "it should be soon."
Rennes decided to regain his territory starting today.
The most important place in the Earl of Glamorgan is of course the Bleu Water Castle, which symbolizes the ruler of the lord. Next are two ports, then the commercial area on the banks of the Jero River, and the airship take-off and landing ground. As long as you take these points, the territory will be almost in your hands.
The rest of the manors, factories, magic soul breeding farms, plantations, and farms can be cleaned up slowly in the future and sorted out each family.
What Rennes wants to take down now are two ports.
One is in the north, the largest port in Modu, located at the mouth of the Naqumo River, the longest river in the empire, and is also the intersection of the Inland River in Modu, the Yero River, and is called the Port of Highbridge.
Another Yangshui Port is located on the southern coast of the territory, bordering Paradise Bay. It has a short history of construction, only a few decades, and is also far from the castle.
The combined cargo throughput of these two ports exceeds two-thirds of Modu’s maritime trade, which is self-evident.
It is naturally impossible for the Modu nobles to give up, and it is not easy to attack.
Rennes has not decided which port to attack, so he asked Emilyis to send someone to investigate. There were several shadow warriors in the Dragon Stone Mercenary Group who were sent out early in the morning to go to two ports respectively.
As soon as Emilys finished speaking, a thin figure came in from outside.
She asked quickly, "Landy, how is it?"
"Captain, Lord Lord." Langdy saluted to the two, a fourth-level shadow warrior, and replied: "I walked around the Port of Highbridge twice and saw the heavy cavalry of the Marquis of Jiliu. The number should be more than fifty. They were very alert, so I dared not get too close and did not find any other problems."
"More than fifty heavy cavalry..." Emilys's face was solemn.
Heavy cavalry, also known as heavy knights, are similar to silver knights, but their mounts are generally larger and heavier, and they charge together and are unstoppable.
The revelation that Renn received from Oshylia, the Marquis of Gillou family trained a large number of heavy knights, with a total of more than 500, and sent one-tenth of them to station in the port, which was spared no expense.
Another Yangshui Port, whose control is in the hands of Count Akrant, must have sent heavy troops to guard it.
"Lord?" Emilys asked Renn.
Renn thought about it for a few minutes and didn't want to wait for the shadow warriors from Yangshui Port to come back. As long as there are no traps, it will be the same for attacking any port.
Highbridge Harbour is closer to the castle, only a dozen miles away. It can attack quickly and reduce the enemy's reaction time.
"Go to Port Highbridge right away." Rennes no longer hesitated.
"yes!"
Everyone responded in unison and immediately acted according to the previous plan.
The Dragon Stone Mercenary Group sent one hundred centaurs and thirty iron guards, and the remaining people stayed in the castle to prevent them from being confiscated from their hometown.
The Extreme Team, the Silver Knights and the Secret Fireguards were all dispatched.
The gate of the castle opened, and teams of centaurs ran out. Such a big noise immediately attracted the attention of people on the street. They hid on the side of the road, their eyes full of awe.
At the front of the team, four centaurs held high the flag of the Augustus family. On the bright red flag, a golden warhammer crossed the crescent moon, fluttering in the wind.
Emilys and her human mercenary were taken by a centaur to run in the middle.
Rennes was too big to carry the centaur. He was happy to run and keep up, but it was a detriment to the Count's majesty and decent, so he could only sit in the car and follow the team.
Like Rennes, the Thirteen Extreme Warriors are too big and have no suitable mounts. They are too tall to sit in the car and can only run by themselves.
Fortunately, the twenty-mile distance is not far for the extreme warriors, and their speed is completely up to date and they don’t consume much physical strength.
A moment later, Highbridge Port arrived.
The port is built along the open area of the coast, and it is three or four miles long. You can see hundreds of ships, large ships, private yachts, fishing boats and passenger ships docked on the port's pier. The semi-mechanized cranes are transported or unloaded with bulk cargo under the power of steam engines. The workers are busy. The port is filled with a large number of hotels, bars and shops, people are coming and going, and a prosperous scene.
However, the rumbling sound of horse hooves interrupted all this.
As the shadow of the centaur appeared on the street, the entire port suddenly boiled like a pot, and a mess was rushing.
There are several towering bell towers built in the port, and the guards ring the big bell and issue warnings.
A group of black knights rushed out of the port and blocked the port's door.
The armor on them has a faint energy brilliance, exquisite and heavy. The one riding is a tall and powerful dragon-horned war horse. This kind of war horse is more precious than a silver-scale horse, and also has a little dragon bloodline. There is a pair of horns on both sides of the horse's head, and its strength and endurance are comparable to that of monsters.
More than fifty heavy knights quickly completed the queue, holding more than three meters of cavalry guns, as if facing a great enemy.
"Stop!"
A command came out, and the centaur stopped three hundred steps away from the heavy-armed knight. It was surrounded by open streets, which were very suitable for charging.
Rennes got off the car and walked to the front of the line.
Emilys jumped off Zhuo's back, walked to his side, and whispered.
Zhuo Ao hummed in dissatisfaction, but saw the Makurag people following Renn, and there were thirteen. He was so scared that he turned around and dared not say anything again.
"Your Excellency, do you want to attack?" asked Emilys.
Renn shook his head, "Wait for a few minutes first, it's not time for the attack yet."
Although the centaur has the advantage in numbers, he came from the castle and ran for twenty miles, and his physical strength was not at its peak, so he had to take a break.
A distance of three hundred steps is enough for the centaur to rush.
Renn looked at the port gate opposite.
The equipment of this group of heavy knights is very well-equipped. Marquis Jiliu invested a lot of money on them. Each knight is a level three iron guard. There are only four elements in the soul. Everyone is the same, level two strength, stone skin technique, long-lasting endurance and toughness.
Obviously, these heavy knights are extraordinary people trained since childhood, rather than recruiting from outside.
This method of establishing a legion can only be supported by the real great nobles.
This is how the Duke of Silver Star's Silver Knights are.
They fuse the same demon souls, possess the same elements, use the same equipment, train various combat skills for a long time, obey commands, fight in a unified manner, and form a truly extraordinary army.
I don’t know how much more powerful such an army is than a mercenary group.
If the same number of centaurs meet this heavy cavalry in the wild, perhaps at the beginning of the battle, the centaurs will have some advantages by taking advantage of the bow and arrow, but once the heavy cavalry seizes the opportunity to charge head-on, the centaurs will definitely be crushed.
"I wonder if the bullets of Rambo's gun can wear their armor?"
Renne thought to himself.
His eyes fell on the leader of the heavy knight.
The man was completely wrapped in enchanted armor, and his face was invisible. The dragon-horned war horse under him was taller and stronger than other heavy-armed knights.
The Eye of Soul saw that this was a high-level iron guard and advanced to the Steel Knight.
Renne took out the engraved parchment from the ring. This action caused the heavy knight on the opposite side to move, as if he wanted to retreat.
He couldn't help but smile, knowing that these people thought they were going to take out the machine gun.
Just as he was about to repeat the same trick, he read out his own duties and orders, and limited the other party to leave within five minutes, Rennes suddenly sensed something and looked up at the sky.
A few dark clouds suddenly floated in the clear sky, and were getting thicker and thicker at a speed visible to the eyes, and there was a faint sound of thunder in the clouds.
Rennes's face suddenly changed color.
He had lightning affinity, and sensed the lightning elements within a radius of 1,000 meters, gathering into the sky wildly. The air around him became dry, and the fine hairs on his skin stood up.
Someone is casting spells, and it is a thunder-type spell with extremely high rings!
Oshylia's voice sounded in her ears: "This is the thundercloud storm of the Seven Ring Spell, retreat quickly!"
"It's too late to retreat." Renn's face darkened.
This is a trap. No wonder the heavy knight on the opposite side was just guarding the port and let the centaur rush to three hundred steps away, leaving himself in a passive state, which turned out to be used as bait.
Within seconds, dark clouds covered the sky, like the scene before the storm came.
With such a large range of spells, I can definitely escape by relying on any gate of Oshylia, but it is difficult for others to do so.
The centaurs panicked and their formation was a little scattered.
"Lord?" Emilyis looked anxious. If the spells were allowed to land, few people in her mercenary group would survive.
But at this time, Renn seemed to be stunned and motionless.
"Quiet!"
Renn shouted, the sound of all things had already reached its upper limit, his eyes swept back and forth in the port, trying to find the caster.
The Seven Ring Spell requires a legendary middle-level wizard to cast. The wider the spell range and larger the scale, the longer the preparation time will be, and the attack will not be formed so quickly.
In order to get a better casting vision, the opponent must stand higher and cannot hide it.
In the eyes of the soul, violent magic fluctuations came from the roof of a tall building in the port.
"I found you."
Renn immediately ordered: "Charge! Charge! Charge!"
"Everyone rushed into the port, and the extreme warriors, crush your enemies!"
Thirteen extreme warriors raised their giant swords in their hands, took the lead in charging towards the heavy knights in the port, shouting loudly: "Arrival for Augustus!"
The centaurs were infected by their momentum and then ran wildly.
After Renn issued the order, he pointed to the roof of the building, and a random door opened in front of him. He stepped in without hesitation.
