The infantry advanced, the cavalry split up, and Zhang Yang circled around to intercept.

The arms of the Fire Mercenary Corps cooperated tacitly. After the four rogue knights who were the leaders were killed, the morale of the rest quickly dropped to freezing point and they were vulnerable to a single blow.

Especially when Zhang Yang intercepted and killed two rogue followers one step ahead, and after old Alek led a team to outflank them, they finally chose to surrender.

In this battle, they killed 19 people, seriously injured 7 people, and captured 6 people, but their side only paid the price of one death and three injuries.

Clean up the battlefield quickly, and everyone should replace their weapons and horses in order according to their level. This is necessary, because after a battle, the wear and tear is very large, such as the blade of the sword is broken, the lance is broken, the horse is injured, and the armor collapses. Fragments and more.

Zhang Yang had to think about whether to hire a blacksmith with the army?

Among these many weapons, there is only one kind of weapon that is difficult to break, that is, the weapons of symbols and inscriptions, such as the flamboyant sapphire symbol flying knife, the symbol long knife, and the old Alec, Robert, Norton three The ancient inscription shield in the hands of people, because it has the power of magic attached to it.

It's a pity that the rogue knight squad that was wiped out this time did not have ancient inscription shields. After all, this thing is a scarce item. According to veteran Robert, even in the royal court of Sarion, the ancient inscription shields that can be forged every year will not exceed two hundred. noodle.

This made Zhang Yang also consider whether it is possible to use the magic power of the giant dragon in the Nudal Ridge to make this kind of powerful shield. After all, no matter how powerful the infantry is, the cavalry charging at high speed will suffer when facing the cavalry.

As far as the battle just now is concerned, if Zhang Yang hadn't killed three of the most powerful rogue knights first with the Spear of Imprisonment, and old Alek had shot one of them to death, then the next battle, even if won, would have been miserable. win.

Moreover, his three imprisoning wooden spears had already consumed all the aura, so they were no longer miraculous.

But for the time being, without the devil's gold, he couldn't remake the Spear of Imprisonment.

"My lord, the battlefield has been cleaned up, and those rogue spies are no longer around. If we leave here, they will definitely not be able to catch up."

Old Alek urged his horse over to ask, and interrupted Zhang Yang's thinking.

"Of course it's going to Marion City. The so-called riches and honors don't return home, it's like walking at night in brocade clothes."

Zhang Yang laughed. He came back this time to find these rogue knights to make a fortune. If they are not alarmed, how can he gain experience.

Of course, how to gain this experience also requires skill. He has already thought of several plans for this, and even the battle just now is also in the plan.

"Alek, let's rest until the afternoon, and then you take all the rangers to kill or disperse all the rogue spies along the way. Then, we have to arrive in Marion City before dark, or at least show up in the city. The patrol range of the guards, well, let me ask again, are these rogue knights really afraid to do anything in Marion City?"

Zhang Yang asked again, for this goal, he spent a lot of brains.

"Yes, my lord, I can guarantee that even as long as there are city guards patrolling, they will not dare to do anything. In the final analysis, they are a bunch of bullying bastards."

Old Alek answered in the affirmative, he also knew Zhang Yang's plan, but even thinking about it now, he still felt that it was too bold.

"Very well, let's execute the plan."

Zhang Yang smiled slightly, extremely confident, because now he has a big killer in his hand that is even more powerful than the dragon blood warrior Bob.

In the Nudal Ridge before, he discovered that the veteran Robert was only a short distance away from breaking through to become the Praetorian Guards, so he immediately and decisively wooed him, even at the expense of old Alec to persuade him, and finally let Robert take 6 pseudo-dragon tears, this is second only to Bob among all the people.

These six pseudo-dragon tears increased veteran Robert's strength by 6 points and agility by 6 points.

This doesn't sound like much, but as a veteran who has fought on the battlefield for more than ten years and grew from a recruit to an assault swordsman, it is difficult for Robert to improve every little bit, let alone so many.

The reason why Robert didn't take more fake dragon's tears was that Zhang Yang was afraid that Robert's intelligence attribute was not high enough and something might go wrong. After all, he was not Bob, and his loyalty to Zhang Yang was unparalleled.

But even so, Robert is actually only a little bit away from upgrading.

In the battle just now, Robert easily killed two rogue subordinates, and then successfully upgraded and changed jobs. Next, he only needs to be equipped with suitable equipment. One of the signatures, the Sarion Praetorian Guard!

On the battlefield that Zhang Yang had experienced, only a dozen Sarion Guards could face dozens of Daxia Sword Saints head-on.

So now, is it possible for this Robert, who already has an ancient inscription shield and a full body of heavy armor, to teach those rogue knights an unforgettable lesson in a certain terrain?

Zhang Yang looked forward to it.

Next, old Alek led the rangers to take the lead in killing and expelling the rogue spies. Zhang Yang and the others caught up behind them, and buried 3000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000. Hundreds of horses are rejected.

This was originally used to deal with the Jatu people, but now Zhang Yang has no interest in passing through the Jatu prairie, so it would be good to use it on those rogue knights.

Then, they dawdled and stopped several times until after dark before paying the fee and entering Marion City.

The moment they entered the city, even the night couldn't block the hateful gazes from all around. There were even a few big men blatantly threatening on the street, but in the official territory, the rogue knights didn't dare to do anything wrong.

Zhang Yang first let the old Alek take it with him, and sold all the trophies and extra horses. Thanks to the old guy's status as a local snake, he actually got a high price of 2,400 silver dinars this time.

"My lord, should we hire some mercenaries? Those rogue knights have already begun to gather. Perhaps tomorrow morning, we will have to face at least three rogue squads. Even if we have made plans, we may not be able to handle them."

Old Alek said worriedly. Although he took six fake dragon tears in a row to bring his physical condition back to the peak, he was only one person after all, and the two Jatu raiders and the five second sons of the nobles needed more. It takes at least two or three battles to upgrade again, so if more than three rogue knight squads converge, it will be a disaster for their mercenary group.

"Alek, do you think it is possible for you to hire powerful mercenaries under the current situation? No one is a fool."

Zhang Yang smiled, unmoved by the imminent crisis.

Then, he went on to buy 1,000 dinars of grain, fodder, and wine, and used the remaining silver dinars to buy iron ingots, forging tools, charcoal, etc.

"Notify everyone, take a good rest."

After Zhang Yang ordered, he went to rest. Those rogue knights still had some influence in the city. It is estimated that their list of sales and purchases would be known to them soon, but this was the fog that was released for them.

In the early morning of the next day, Zhang Yang and the others left Marion City after they had breakfast and satiated. There were four large vehicles in total, but their loads were different, but those who followed would not notice such details of.

Less than five miles out of the city, some riders began to gallop past the convoy arrogantly, which was the gaze of the wolves looking at their prey.

Walk another five miles, and from here on, you will be out of the patrol range of the Marion City Guards, and you won't care about killing people.

But those rogue knight squads still didn't show up. After all, they gathered at least 80 cavalry this time, which caused too much noise. It would not be perfect if they attracted the Marion City Guards, so they didn't mind letting their prey live again. For a moment, and this is also in Zhang Yang's calculations.

"My lord, at most five miles ahead, there will be woods on both sides of the road. I guess they will launch an attack there."

Old Alec whispered.

"We can't bet on the mentality of these rascals. When we reached the 12th mile, we stopped immediately and pretended to set up a position." Zhang Yang said decisively. The reason is that along the way, those rascals who are showing off their might are very arrogant, and even the spies have been pulled over a dozen times.

"Yes, my lord."

"Everyone get in the car and speed up."

"Rangers, follow me!"

Old Alek immediately set off and led the rangers to the front. When they moved, the rogue spies who were watching from front to back and left to right also started to move, and shouts kept ringing out. These guys are too blatant.

"Quick! Let the carriage speed up!"

Zhang Yang also shouted, he had a premonition that those rogue knight squads might be ambushing several miles away, as long as they were vigilant, the opponent's cavalry would definitely rush up like a tide.

In fact, in just ten minutes, Zhang Yang's four carts had just arrived at the scheduled ambush site, and there was smoke and dust on the left and right sides, and then behind them, there was also the sound of horseshoes, not many, but this was to cut them off on the way.

"Get out of the car, set up the rejection horse, and raise half of the rejection horse last night!"

Everyone started working together, even the rangers got off their horses, and with four carts as the center, they quickly smashed the horses one by one into the mud. There were also a hundred horses in the cart, which was also for the purpose of confusing Those rogue knights.

In addition, thirty large wooden shields were also taken out and placed flat on the ground. If the enemy didn't have crossbowmen, that's all.

In short, all this is clearly arranged.

It wasn't long before Zhang Yang and the others smashed a hundred horses to the ground sparsely, and the two cavalry teams of the rogue knights had already charged over.

Their cavalry did not have a strict formation, like a mass of loose sand.

But this is a cavalry force of 60+. In such a plain area, it is enough to crush Zhang Yang and his team many times.

So these rogue knights are really hyena-like lunatics, how boring are they, dispatching more than 80 people at a time?

No, even more, because they also have infantry.

What hatred, what resentment!

At this time, as the rogue cavalry approached, they were obviously also surprised. After all, what cavalry hate most is the terrain, and the second is the refusal of horses.

Therefore, there was no command at all, and no leader. The cavalry formed by several rogue squads didn't even have the patience to wait for the follow-up infantry, so they rushed up.

Iron cavalry is invincible, stepping forward and returning, this kind of momentum is probably very intoxicating.

Until the two rogue cavalry had charged 30 meters, with a whistle, the rows of rejected horses in the mud were suddenly pulled up, like a demon in hell opening its sharp fangs.

Caught off guard, or in other words, at the highest speed of charging, even if the horse is frightened, it will be too late.

There was a hissing sound, and then there was snap, snap!

In the cloud of smoke and dust, at least half of the rogue horse team collapsed here, but the rogue knights and rogue retinues on horseback did not suffer too many casualties.

However, one of the most obvious facts is that they have become infantry!

"kill!"

Amidst the lion-like roar, Robert rushed out first, followed by veteran Norton, veteran Iger and old Alek, all of them rushed up, and a one-sided killing began. Well, it was mainly Robert's own performance.

These rogue knights are not regular troops. Both attributes and skills are completely crushed. Except for their better equipment, they are basically useless.

Zhang Yang stayed behind and watched as Robert met the two rogue knights with the ancient inscription shield. He stabbed with his sword and strangled the third rogue knight.

Watching veteran Norton and veteran Iger accompany Robert, like an iron triangle, people are turned on their backs wherever they pass.

Looking at the sword and shield infantry Tony, the armed infantry Ruger followed the Iron Triangle with a group of low-ranking soldiers, joined forces and strangled them in groups.

Looking at old Alek, leading the rangers, forming a shooting group under the horse, constantly covering and shooting with feather arrows.

Of course, whenever he found a soldier in danger or stalemate, he immediately threw a javelin to resolve it instantly, and those enemies who wanted to retreat but were still riding on their horses were also named and killed four times by him. indivual.

In just a short moment, more than thirty rogue knights and rogue retinues who fell from their horses were killed and wounded, and the rest retreated hastily, and the people who had killed them also quickly retreated without chasing and killing.

"Shield array!"

Bang bang bang, a large wooden shield was erected on the back of the cart. These wooden shields were all equipped with outriggers behind them, so although they were heavy, they were very convenient to use.

The scoundrels who had withdrawn shouted curses, and some of them were rogue knights who stretched their bows and shot. Soon, a team of 20 hired armored crossbowmen arrived.

They began to shoot continuously, and when they suppressed, those rogue cavalry wanted to take the opportunity to rush up and take away the rejected horses one by one.

This is really a good routine.

But Zhang Yang has his own way.

"Alec, give Yige your ancient inscription shield, and then take the rangers and prepare for a salvo!"

"Yes, my lord!"

Soon, behind the wooden shield, Robert, Igger, and Norton rushed out each holding an ancient inscription shield. Naturally, they were greeted by a rain of arrows. Because of this time, those rogue knights had gathered nearly thirty people on the opposite side. crossbowmen.

It's a pity that although the arrow rain is fierce, it is still not enough to face the ancient inscription shield.

At this gap, Alek, Carly, Anderson, and the two Jatu attackers, the five rangers, immediately leaned forward, locked on the target, and fired a round of rapid fire.

The screams sounded immediately, two hired armored crossbowmen were shot to death, and two were shot and wounded. This effect was very good, at least they didn't dare to suppress feather arrows unscrupulously anymore.

Then, under the cover of the three of Robert, even though the crossbowmen on the opposite side quickly changed their strategies, the old Alek and the five still seized the opportunity to kill and wound several enemies who were dragging their horses.

The two sides entered a stalemate.

But Zhang Yang is not in a hurry. He has horses outside, a shield in the middle, and a carriage inside. The cart is filled with enough food, clean water, and consumption. Who is afraid of whom?

This place was near the commercial road, so he didn't believe that these rogue knights really dared to continue the siege with such great fanfare.

And just this wave, he has made a solid profit, 17 rogue knights, 12 rogue retinues, and 2 hired armored crossbowmen, this experience value is very rich.

At least in the team, the armed infantry Ruger has successfully upgraded to the assault swordsman, this is the fourth veteran in the team.

Then, three militiamen were promoted to infantry and two infantrymen were promoted to armed infantry.

Even Carly and Tony were promoted one level each.

As for the five second sons of nobles, one of them is about to be upgraded to a rogue knight or an adventurer. This is also a famous profession, because if an adventurer continues to upgrade, he will become a well-known adventure hero throughout the continent.

Of course, this is too far away for the five second sons of nobles, but old Alek is very qualified to break through his shackles and become an adventure hero.

"shoot!"

When the infantry and cavalry on both sides are in a stalemate, the shooter is still active.

Old Alek personally commanded and formulated tactics himself. This old guy's experience is so rich that it is hopeless. With all kinds of hat-tricks, with the three powerful meat shields of Robert, Norton, and Iger, the opponents in just a dozen rounds Shooting, I was stunned to feel the thrill of shooting.

Of course, this is the feeling of the enemy on the opposite side, even if those rogue knights dismounted and lined up shields to protect these crossbowmen, twelve hired armored crossbowmen were shot dead, four were injured, and four rogues with bows The subordinate was shot to death, the result of this battle is more than brilliant.

Even the two Jatu raiders who had been keeping a low profile and seemed to not exist, because of the accumulation along the way, finally ushered in a bumper harvest at this moment, and both were upgraded to Jatu hussars.

Even Anderson, who has been lagging behind, has a head in the account.

And old Alek, from the beginning of the battle to this moment, has shot and wounded as many as 13 people, and he is more than brave and ferocious.

In this way, after an hour, the rogues finally retreated, because they had never encountered such a hedgehog-like opponent, and they had no way to fight against them. If they continued, they would have nothing to do but add lives in vain.

But the enmity is settled.

But how could Zhang Yang care?

After this battle, Zhang Yang's harvest is enough to allow the mercenary group to grow rapidly.
