Chapter 78: 【Roland Knight】

Chapter Seventy Eight
Roddy's legs were already numb, and the soles of his feet felt like countless steel needles were piercing fiercely.
After running for nearly half an hour just now, the horse finally couldn't support it, fell to the ground and foamed at the mouth, and could no longer stand up. Roddy had no choice but to walk forward.
The sweat and tears on Roddy's face were already mixed, and he was very worried. Just now he also heard the screaming for killing behind him, and his chest was agitated, and he almost turned his head back to fight with the loyal soldiers, and went to Huangquan together.
It's just that Andy warned over and over again in his mind, thinking of the soldier's decisive attitude just now, knowing that even if he went back, he would die in vain. If you really die on this grassland, then everything is really over. If the Duke of Tulip is killed in battle, without the Tulip banner, I am afraid the Northwest Army will fall apart immediately!
"If I am not a Duke Tulip, but just an ordinary warrior, then maybe I can go back and live and die with my brothers..." Such a thought flashed in Roddy's mind.
After running like this in the middle of the night, there were no enemy cavalry chasing after him. Presumably, after the chasers had killed those personal soldiers, they thought that all the enemies had been killed. Although the large forces were omitted by the division of troops, they had no choice but to retreat.
Roddy ran in the middle of the night, and finally couldn't support it, and found a place where there was lush vegetation to sit down and rest. I just felt that a huge stone in my chest weighed on my heart, so I couldn't breathe.
His first order on this expedition was actually to kill ten collaborating imperial villages in the village. Then Watt fought away and drove away the army of Royantal, but he was not happy for a while, he witnessed the imperial northwest military affairs. In the darkness of corruption, there is really no more joy in my heart. In the past few days of continuous fighting, burning and killing all the way, most of the people encountered were the civilians of the Great Moon Kingdom. Although he did not kill the civilians, how could the sturdy herdsmen on the grassland see the imperial army burn their homes? One after another desperately resisted, saying that they would not kill, and the number of foreign herdsmen on the grassland who died under the scimitar of the "Thunder God's Whip" did not know how many.
No matter how great Roddy is at this moment, he is a young man after all. The character is resolute enough, but when it comes to cruelty, it's too far. So all the way, although the progress went well, no day was happy.
But at this moment, Roddy was lying all over in the grass, but all kinds of thoughts were turning around in his mind.
Am I really wrong? War is a matter of life and death, soft-heartedness can only make loved ones hurt the enemies!
He Luoyantal in the northwest, regardless of the civilian army, killed him, but the northwest shook and fled without fear of the wind! It occupied the Northwestern Province with almost no decent resistance. In comparison, isn't it too weak to look forward and backward?
Thinking of the fact that the subordinates just saw death as loyal to themselves, I am afraid that they have died cleanly at this moment. Roddy only felt guilty in his heart, and his heart was bleeding.
The Great Moon Kingdom had more than 200,000 soldiers, but all his cavalry came from civilians. From the perspective of the Great Moon Kingdom, it was difficult to distinguish between soldiers and civilians. Most of the cavalry were selected from the herdsmen before the war. If it was ordered by the Great Moon Kingdom alone, it would be possible for all the people to be soldiers.
He is indecisive, just clinging to that ridiculous truth, really a jerk!
If the enemy can kill our people, can't I kill the enemy people? !
Roddy figured this out, only to feel the blood rushing to his heart, and then he wiped away the tears, and couldn't help but want to yell.
From the expedition to the present, I have witnessed the tragic death of the most loyal subordinates. Roddy's temperament has finally changed drastically, and his original tough and determined character is a bit more iron-blooded and gloomy. That foolish boy is gone forever!
After a short break, Roddy calmed down and realized that if he walked like this, it would be difficult to get out of the grassland. After thinking for a moment, he identified a direction, ready to find a small tribe to steal or force, and get a horse!
At dawn, Roddy finally met two herders driving dozens of cattle and sheep on the grassland.
In the distance, there are two herdsmen, a man and a woman, all wearing leather jackets and caps, riding on horses with a long whip in their hands to drive away the cattle and herds. Two wolf dogs barking incessantly next to help the owner keep away The herd of cattle and sheep drove back to the brigade.
Roddy hid in the grass for a while with his gaze stern, took a bite, and touched the saber in his hand. The cat rushed over.
The herder on the horse hadn't noticed yet, the two wolfhounds were already alert and rushed in front of Roddy and barked. One of them was a little more majestic, smelling the smell on Roddy's body, and threw his teeth and claws at him. Roddy's complexion remained unchanged. He lifted his foot and kicked the wolfhound to his brains. The other was so scared that he tucked its tail and drew back. Roddy didn't look at it. He raised the scimitar in his hand and threw it. Cut into two paragraphs.
The two herdsmen rushed forward in fright and anger. The male herder shouted loudly, but Roddy couldn't understand a word, so he rushed towards him with a machete.
The folk customs on the grassland were indeed sturdy, and the male herder immediately put down his whip, took the bow and arrow hung on the horse, and shot towards Roddy. Roddy sneered coldly, the scimitar fended off the arrow, and when he rushed closer, he suddenly grew violently, clenching the handle of the knife with both hands and leaping into the air. Before the herder picked up the scimitar in his hand, he saw a shock of blood fog, and a head was already flying into the sky. Roddy's face was hot and blood stained, but without hesitation, he picked up the bow and arrow on the ground and rushed towards the female herder.
The female herder had already screamed again and again, but she didn't back up, she actually drew a machete from the moment and rushed towards Roddy.
Roddy saw the distressed expression on the female herder’s face, her heart softened at first, and then he thought of the tragic death of her subordinates, and then he changed his mind: Don’t you kill this person, keep her to raise the young man to adulthood, and bring up herds of cattle. Sheep's property enriches the national strength, will we come again to harm us!
Roddy didn't hesitate anymore, opened his bow and arrow, and with a swish, the female herder fell off her horse, her neck has been penetrated by a sharp arrow.
Looking at the corpses on the ground, both near and far, a bloodthirsty cruel rushed into Roddy's heart. He couldn't help but yelled a few times before removing the depressive air in his heart for a few minutes. Then he took a horse and discerned the direction. go with.
One day running, and occasionally taking a short break in the middle, in the evening, Roddy had already arrived in front of a short mountain bag on the edge of the grassland alone. According to the previously checked terrain, through this mountain bag, you can walk out of the boundaries of the Great Moon Kingdom and reach the Northwest Plain. You can return to Watt Fortress within two days. Roddy's heart was shaken, and he rushed forward.
The sunset in the evening was still in the western sky, and a trumpet rang from behind the mountain bag not far from the beginning, and then a group of cavalrymen turned out from behind the mountain bag and stopped in front of Roddy. Roddy stopped the horse immediately, his heart sank.
Faint horses, dazzling armor and blades, all fell into Roddy's eyes.
This cavalry has only a few hundred men, but from a distance, it doesn't look like the prairie cavalry of the Great Moon Kingdom at all. Most of the cavalry in the Great Moon Kingdom have no armor, and they wear leather armor during the war, while some simply wear a thick leather jacket with a long bow hanging behind them.
But the cavalry in front of the road was all dressed in silver heavy armor. With the scarcity of grassland minerals and craftsmanship, it was absolutely impossible to make such an excellent armor. This kind of equipment was already comparable to the elite "Thunder God's Whip" under the Empire. Up. It’s just that they don’t have bows and arrows behind them, they just carry a weird cross-cutting sword, with a sharp spear in one hand, under the setting sun, a little bit of cold light is shining, and the other hand is half holding Great shield with cross stripes.
This cavalry did not immediately rush, but slowly opened up the formation, which is different from the scattered swarms of the steppe cavalry. The half-moon-shaped formation unfolded, hundreds of people lined up neatly, and the huge shields in their hands were connected together. A thick shield wall, even if there are occasional gaps in the middle, the front and rear columns are closely connected and guarded by layers! These people faintly surrounded Roddy from a distance.
A knight in the formation slowly walked up a few steps and said loudly, "Honorable Bright Empire Knight, please dismount and hand over your weapons." He spoke the empire's common language, but his tone was a bit blunt.
Roddy took a long sigh, not surprised, but calmed down. He has experienced too many life and death battles these days, and he has no panic at the moment. Coldly shouted: "Who are you! Are you from the Great Moon Kingdom?"
Roddy yelled, and the other party was stunned for a while, but did not reply, and still repeated the sentence aloud. After he said this, the cavalry queue behind him walked a few steps forward slowly and neatly, with a faint intimidation.
Roddy sneered: "If I refuse!"
The other party stopped talking and gave an order, and the cavalry line slowly moved forward, and the neat half-moon plastic surgery slowly forced towards Roddy. Roddy knew in his heart that this was their preparation before charging. The cavalry charge, it is impossible to run at once. You can only drive the horse slowly first, let the horse run a few steps to warm up slowly, and then sprint after a hundred steps to fully deploy its horsepower.
The horse under Roddy's crotch was just a civilian horse snatched from the herdsman. The animal felt the faint crisis and murderousness of the other party. The animal's natural alertness made it growl and hiss uneasy, and then faintly stepped back.
The cavalry on the opposite side suddenly shouted in unison, and then the spears in their hands were not raised high to the sky, and they all pressed down flatly, and the neatly arranged spears pointed at Roddy.
The horse under Roddy's crotch couldn't stand the fright, and suddenly screamed.
