Heroes of the Invincible Knight

"Swoosh, whoosh, whoosh..."

After all, James is also a person who has fought in the army. The guards of the Hou Mansion that he personally selected are not weak in combat, and they are also skilled in using the military longbow.

As soon as the two centurions that launched the attack from the Elders' Council entered within sixty paces of the Hou's mansion, they were covered by hundreds of sharp arrows, and these arrows were also well aimed.

"ah!"

"Don't worry about it, raise your shield! Continue to charge up!"

It's just that the private soldiers of these veterans are well equipped. Everyone wears scale armor or mail armor, iron helmets, and most of them are lined with leather armor, which is much better than the tens of thousands of regular soldiers in Piaoxue City. , not to mention that the soldiers in the front row were still holding shields.

Except for a few unlucky ones who were hit by arrows and fell to the ground, most people just ignored the arrows and charged straight up.

"Ready to fight!"

"withstand!"

Seeing that the arrows couldn't play a big role, James simply gave up the long-range attack method and directly ordered his men to prepare for hand-to-hand combat.

Although the Hou Mansion has certain military defense capabilities, it is not a real castle, and the battle happened suddenly. There is not even a bed crossbow on the outer wall. With the long-range power at hand, it is like scratching an itch, so it is better to save some time , directly ready to fight.

"kill!"

It was only a four-meter-high wall, and the soldiers of the Council of Elders rushed up with a long ladder. A few quasi-knights led the team down, and quickly stood on the wall. A high wall of this level is very difficult for a real army. Not too strong defensive ability.

"Bang! Bang!"

Both sides were soldiers in heavy armor. The blunt weapons that pierced the armor made a bang sound when they fought, but the actual casualties were not many. Without the strength to crush them, it was necessary to kill a man in heavy armor. Being a soldier is actually a very difficult task, and in many cases it even takes one party to run out of energy.

But in this world, the strength and physical fitness of human beings is obviously stronger than that of the ancient earth, and these armored soldiers fight more fiercely, and it is impossible to see the outcome for a while.

"Hey!"

But this kind of soldiers in heavy armor still has nemesis in this world. In addition to quasi-knights who use heavy weapons, knight-level masters who directly attach grudges to weapons can also easily break through their heavy armor. Quasi-knights with heavy troops are much more relaxed.

The knights on James' side also joined the battle at the top of the city, suppressing the momentum of the soldiers on the Elders' side at once. It is said that the five elders are actually knights, and James only sent one knight on the outer wall. Several elders are willing to take out two followers to charge together, I am afraid that the situation has already been opened.

However, the veterans feel that gold is precious, so they are willing to go to battle in person at this age, and their own side still has a big advantage in numbers, so they will not take risks in person.

The veteran Andersa who was in charge waved his hand again, and another centurion rushed up with several long ladders. At the same time, the team pushing the battering ram also arrived at the gate of the Hou Mansion.

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

This kind of battering ram used to deal with the gate of the city is used to deal with the gate of the Hou Mansion. It will be a matter of time before a crack is opened and it will be knocked open.

Once the gate was opened, the guards of the Marquis Mansion would no longer have any barriers, and the army of elders from outside would swarm in, and a few knights could not turn the situation around at all.

"Master Marquis! The gate is about to fail!"

There is still a group of people standing behind the gate, but it is obvious that they have reached their limit.

"Get out of the way!"

James also knew that the gate would not be able to withstand the impact of the battering ram. At this time, he personally took the remaining two knights and a hundred guards to prepare for the last fight.

"Desan! I'll rush out as soon as the door opens. Have you seen the positions of those old guys? Take them down!"

"No problem, Lord Marquis, but what did you promise?"

"I'll give it to you after this battle."

"I want you to give it to me now."

"You are bold!"

James looked into the other's eyes, after all he didn't dare to say that he didn't have it with him.

Letterman is a great knight recruited by James after inheriting the title, and it is also James' only trump card. Letterman is willing to work for James. In addition to the extremely high salary, he also has some resources promised by James.

At the level of the great knight, it is difficult to simply rely on Jinnar to recruit them. Without some training resources, why should these people work for you? People who work for the kingdom can also rely on military exploits to obtain titles and territories, and serve ordinary nobles, so they will naturally have other pursuits.

James prescribes the high-level knight blessing potion, a rare resource that is useful for the cultivation of great knights, in order to attract Letterman to work for him.

Of course, it is impossible for Letterman to obtain such precious training resources as soon as he arrives. James has only one bottle in his hand, and it is entirely based on the legacy of Marquis Wade. This thing should have been reserved for Marquis Wade. The eldest son of his brother was used to break through the use of the great knight, but it ended up in James' hands, and James tried his best to maximize its value.

It was used as a hanging carrot to attract a great knight. According to James’ original intention, this is actually a blank check. When the situation stabilizes, it’s not certain whether he will give it or not. Letterman suddenly asked him to fall into into embarrassment.

Under Letterman's threatening gaze, James finally plans to make a compromise.

"After fighting for a while, unscrew the heads of those old guys, and the potion will be yours."

After listening to Letterman, he thought for a while. He was so eager to ask for it because he felt that James' ship was sinking. If he didn't get the benefits, he might not have a chance in the future. With James like this, it may be difficult to give him now.

Just when Letterman was hesitating, James took out a thumb-sized delicate vial from his body, which contained a light red potion, which looked almost exactly the same as the potion Richard got.

"It's on me, take those old guys down, and it's yours."

Seeing James showing what he wanted, Letterman finally nodded, agreeing to James' conditions.

Letterman is quite clear about the situation of the Lancet family. He knows that there are only a few knights on the side of the Senate, and there are no masters of the Grand Knight rank.

"boom!"

The gate finally couldn't bear the impact of the battering ram anymore, and it fell apart completely, and the entire door frame shattered along with the gate.

"Get out!"

"kill!"

The Elders soldiers who broke through the gate saw not a group of panicked soldiers, but more than a hundred elite soldiers who had been recharging their energy for a long time under the leadership of James...
