Chapter 969, The Battle of Herzig

Seeing the defeat of the Slaanesh Legion, the morale of the human coalition forces was overwhelmed, and the knights fought bravely to be the first. The army began to be chaotic, and everyone rushed to get as many heads as possible.

Where there is a head, there is military merit!

Especially at this time, the phantom of the fairy in the lake is shining in the sky. It is obvious that the goddess is paying attention to this war. The knights and knight followers are so excited that even Ryan's order is ignored, especially the serfs, for the serfs and freemen , the opportunity to show your face in front of the fairies in the lake can no longer be described as hard to find in a lifetime, it is simply once in a thousand years!

Everyone rushed up, scrambling to kill Dan

"Order everyone! Stop, don't be obsessed with chasing!" Ryan immediately gave the order, but it was too late, and only the old guard and the army led by Morgiana, Berhemond, and Lawn were restrained by the coach , The rest of the army rushed up in a swarm.

As it turned out, this was horribly wrong.

Slaanesh's army is weak in combat effectiveness, sieging the city and stretching the hips, and often holding banquets that affect the march endlessly, and at the same time it is easy to go on business. These are the weaknesses of Slaanesh's followers.

So what are the advantages of Slaanesh followers?

Disrupt the war! Fight sports battles, fast-range maneuverability and extremely fast transformation speed! And superb fighting skills in the chaos!

At the same time, Slaanesh believers also have a psychological advantage, that is, failure is very cool! I do not care! In addition to the defeat of the coach, the morale of the followers of Slaanesh will be hit, and it will also make them fall into a new feeling.

So defeat is such an interesting experience? So cool!

Undefeated, good at mobile warfare and counterattack warfare, this is the characteristic of Slaanesh followers.

"Don't pursue! Don't pursue! The Old Guard!" Davout rode his horse and rushed past the front of the Old Guard. The deputy commander hurriedly told everyone to stop: "Your Majesty, don't pursue!"

The loyal old guard immediately stopped and formed a straight line.

"No pursuit!" Duke Bohemond also ordered, and the old duke, who was close to a demigod at the peak of the sanctuary, also immediately ordered the army to stop: "Lauen, tell your people not to chase!"

But the rest of the army couldn't manage that much anymore, so they rushed up like this.

And when the Bretons pursued,

The Slaanesh army suddenly regrouped at an extremely fast speed in the post-turbulence, and the Slaanesh champion Bagley-Twisted Scourge took over the command. The champion immediately ordered the army to launch a counterattack.

Caught off guard, the pursuing human army immediately encountered very tenacious resistance. The followers of Slaanesh swung their claws, overturned the knights from their horses, and pierced the knights' chests and necks with their claw-like claws. Tear to pieces those freemen and serfs who are eager to make meritorious deeds and try to obtain the old guard's enlistment certificate and the favor of the goddess.

At the same time, the mad knights refused to follow Prince Sigvald to retreat. These Chaos elites rushed from the north side, all of them were wearing purple upper-level chaos armor, decorated with a lot of things, using lances and silver swords Killing the Bretons like chickens and dogs, the pursuers are now helpless, they are divided by Slaanesh's army and wiped out one by one.

By the time follow-up reinforcements arrived, the Bretons had left more than a thousand corpses.

Only at this time did the pursuers realize that something was wrong. In fact, if it weren't for the presence of Knight King Ryan, the knights and infantry regiments who rushed to the forefront should have been defeated.

Fortunately, Morgiana and the Lake God Prophets used magic to protect and support their troops in time. Aurora and Teresa released frost nova to delay the counterattack of Slaanesh's army, and Veronica released the light of exile to For the demons of Slaanesh, this caused those Chaos demons to be exiled from the mortal world one after another. Therefore, in the overall situation, the army of Slaanesh is still dealing with a disadvantageous situation.

But at this time, Ryan was watching coldly in the air. The King of Knights knew that since winning such a brilliant victory in the Battle of the Three Kings, the troops really felt proud and complacent, thinking that any enemy was nothing more than that. Do not disobey the army of orders.

Under the chaotic and field battles, the army of Slaanesh became more fierce and stronger!

Fortunately, at this moment, the reinforcements arrived. Midden led the army to join the battlefield from behind, and the Hoke led the army on the side, under the order of Elector Edbrand, raised their long-barreled guns towards the Slaanesh army. Guns, rows of white smoke rushed into the sky, the volley was simple and effective, the human army pouring in from all directions made the Slaanesh Legion exhausted, and the morale became unstable again.

The sword of Urik joined the battle, and the leader of Midon's swordsmanship was violent and full of wildness. The elector Boris said that his rune teeth must be stained with chaotic blood. Morgiana, who couldn't stand it, also ordered the Holy Grail guards They stepped forward, and the Slaanesh Legion, which was still invincible before, suddenly struggled. Seeing that the wind direction had changed, the Chaos army, which was dancing with demons, was once again in chaos. Step forward slowly and enter the battlefield again.

Sir Baldwin of Le-Angoulang fought his way in, stabbing his lance deep into the chest of a Slaanesh demon, throwing away the shattered butt, drawing his knight's sword, and stabbing it with his helm. Piercing the head of a Chaos Warrior, before everyone reacted, he swung his sword again and cut off the head of the second Chaos Warrior.

The flying head and the blood splattered made Sir Baldwin feel happy. He seemed to have returned to the Arabian desert. This is the life he wanted, serving the king and dedicating his loyalty to the lady, instead of staying at home and relying on income. Rent turned into a dawdling waste! Instead win glory and riches and become a hero of the kingdom!

Not far away, two knights and a dozen of their retinues were being besieged. Seeing that the banner was the knights of Le-Angulan, Baldwin immediately decided to rescue his colleagues. The technique replenished his physical strength, which made the knight full of gratitude.

Baldwin once suffered from leprosy unfortunately. How terrible this disease is, you don’t need to look it up yourself. Even the goddess of mercy, Thalia, is powerless against this strange and severe disease. Only the magic of the fairy in the lake can save this Le-Angu For the Lang people, once a serf got this disease, the only ending was to be taken away and burned at the stake.

His earl's father didn't like this "hairy" child, but he still asked him to find the lake goddess Morgiana by himself, and asked Her Highness Morgiana to help her.

Luckily, it seemed that Morgiana was in a particularly good mood. The witch of the lake god cured him of his leprosy by releasing magic spells neatly, and encouraged him warmly that it was a gift from a lady.

"For Le-Angulan! For the lady!" Baldwin raised his knight sword and wiped the chests of two Kurgan warriors with one sword. The horse raised its premise and kicked a low-level Slaanesh demon out!

The comrades were saved, and the two knights thanked Baldwin with a chivalry salute, and immediately joined the counterattack.

Prey, revealed.

The champion of Slaanesh, Bagley-Twisted Calamity, is having a big dream. He feels that his performance today is really great. At a critical moment, he took over the command and became the commander of the Slaanesh army. Moreover, he also reorganized the army and completed the counterattack. His performance today is really good. Sure enough, men should do what men should do.

Master Slaanesh will definitely appreciate me, maybe let me take over the position of Prince Sigvald?

Maybe, I still have a chance to become a demon!

Bagley is already looking forward to what's to come.

And just at the moment when he was distracted, a row of Hawk-collared long-barreled firecrackers sounded like thunder, and three lead shot ammunition pierced his chest and waist respectively, and three smoking holes made Slaanesh The champion's body was bleeding profusely, and Baldwin's sharp knight's sword had already slashed towards her head!

The champion of Slaanesh, who was still dreaming of ascending to the devil, was so frightened that he quickly raised his hand to block, but he forgot that his shield had already been shattered in the previous battle. Baldwin's blow directly connected the shield and the shield. One arm chopped off at the same time!

"Baldwin de Clement of Le-Angoulant is here, name him!"

"Prince Sigwald's champion, Bagley!"

The championship showdown begins immediately!

So this champion duel attracted everyone's attention. Baldwin fought against the chaotic champion alone. Bagley's fighting style was as fast as the wind, his sword skills were exquisite and his steps were light, and his dodging ability was even more extraordinary.

In contrast, Baldwin, who was in heavy armor, used the traditional sword-and-shield fighting style of the knight, and looked cumbersome in front of the champion of Slaanesh. Bagley dodged several attacks. It seemed that this duel was not good for Baldwin. But the Jazz from Le Angoulang found that they couldn't hit the opponent, so they just defended and didn't attack.

With one arm missing and three holes in your body, how much blood can you still shed?

Sure enough, after more than a dozen moves back and forth, Bagley's movements began to slow down. The champion of Slaanesh lost his strength very quickly. He immediately realized that something was wrong and wanted to escape. Baldwin seized the opportunity and stabbed him with a sword. left eye socket! Gouged out the eyes of the champion of Slaanesh with the tip of the sword!

"Ahhh!" The next sword pierced Bagley's breastplate, and the Slaanesh champion fell.

With the fall of the champion of Slaanesh, the Slaanesh Legion collapsed again. At this time, Knight King Ryan has joined the battlefield. Ryan knows that it is okay to let his army suffer a little bit, but too many casualties are not what a king should do. As the invincible King of Knights, Bohemond and others joined the battlefield, and were attacked from the side by Hawke's leading army, Slaanesh's army collapsed again. After dropping more than 10,000 corpses, the remaining 8,000 people faced Fleeing towards the position of the central mountain range.

This time everyone learned to be smart, and no one chased them again.

Ryan was quite speechless about this. Is this the time to continue chasing?

However, considering that the Britannia and Midden-led coalition forces arrived with a forceful march of more than 30 kilometers in half the time, and another battle, the army was very exhausted. It was four o'clock in the afternoon when they arrived, and it was already night It was seven o'clock, and the soldiers were exhausted and hungry. At this time, it really shouldn't be chased anymore, so the King of Knights gave up.

Since then, the battle of Herzig has ended.

The human coalition suffered more than 6,000 casualties, of which more than 2,500 were killed, including more than 200 Britannian knights, and Hawke lost more than 3,000 people.

The Slaanesh Legion had about 8,000 Beastmen and more than 8,000 soldiers. In the end, only 8,000 of the 2,000 people who followed Prince Sigwald evacuated and escaped. Most of the Beastmen were killed, and the rest fled. Slaanesh Demon Prince Azazel was banished.

On the battlefield after the war, Ryan personally inspected Herzig's smoky city walls and the suburbs full of corpses. The King of Knights sighed: "Another victory, but it will not help the entire battlefield."

The Duke of Bohemond came from a distance, and the Duke of the Red Dragon killed three Slaanesh demons. Hearing what Ryan said, the old Duke smiled and said: "Your Majesty, don't be so harsh. We have won countless victories along the way. You His prestige is now known to everyone from the northern wastelands to the Arabian desert."

"I would like to keep a low profile, after all, it's not a good thing to be recorded." Ryan couldn't help but smile when he heard that, and the King of Knights frowned again: "Okay, call everyone here! Yes Who allowed them to disobey orders and pursue without authorization?"

The knights and nobles were called by Ryan, and the guys who chased them without authorization were scolded by the Knight King on the spot, and they all lowered their heads in shame. After counting the casualties of the knights, Morgiana, the witch of the lake, also represented the fairy in the lake to the knights. The nobles gave a very severe reprimand!

In a battle of Herzig, even though he won, the number of casualties was actually more than the battle of the Three Kings!

After the big stick is over, there are sweet dates. In this battle, twelve freemen who have made great achievements in battle have the opportunity to join the Old Guard to supplement the losses of the Old Guard. Among the Old Guard, there are three The title of knight was granted, and Ryan conferred it on the spot.

On the other side, Elector Boris and Elector Edbrand embraced each other, and Edelbrand, who had a horse face, squeezed a smile on his face: "Long time no see, old man, I've been fine recently Is it?"

"Good! Good! Great!" Boris laughed loudly. The White Wolf Elector had never had such a pleasant experience: "We won, we won again! We always win!"

Is it the battle of the three kings? Edbrand was not only a little envious: "Why did you come here? I'm really worried that Herzig will fall again."

"We have marched for more than 30 kilometers and arrived." Boris still had a smile on his face: "You can't expect us to do more now. How about it, Ed, how is the battle going?"

"The situation is not very good. Many troops from Hawke participated in the Von-Zhukov defense battle, but almost no one survived. It's fine if you Aiwei and Steele don't send troops to defend against the movement of the undead. You know What the heck is Karl Franz and Emmanuel doing? Their army is only now in Talabheim! That bastard Helmut has declared the city council failed, he can't send a single soldier Support us."

"Impossible!" Boris shook his head: "This is a decision made in the Imperial Parliament, unless he doesn't want to be the elector!"

"He sent the Knights of Tal's Wrath." Edbrand said, "In his own name."

"Enough." Boris' eyes lit up when he heard the name of the Knights of Tal's Wrath.

The Elector of Hertwig is the Grand Duke of Talabek, the Grand Earl of Talabheim and the Elector. This person is a jerk and is recognized in the empire.

A few minutes later, Ryan finished teaching the knights, and Elector Boris immediately introduced him enthusiastically: "This is Edbrand Ludenhof, Baron and Elector of Hawkland, he Your son Konrad Ludenhof and your son Frederick studied together at the University of Noor and the Noor Gunnery Academy... this is Knight King Ryan Malcador, I don't think I need much introduction Yeah, hahahaha~ The Battle of the Swamp of Pain, the Battle of the Three Kings, the battle outside the city just now, he has already scared the shit out of the Beastmen~"

"Thank you very much for your support, King of Knights on the other side of the mountain, the people of Hawkland will always remember this friendship." Edelbrand offered to extend his hand to say hello.

"As a close compatriot, ally, and your friend, this is my duty." Ryan nodded, and the elector and knight king held hands tightly.

Joining forces with another victory, Herzig was only 150 kilometers away from Wolfenburg.

"We have some new information to share with you, please come in and discuss it in detail!"

"good!"
