Chapter 300 Confrontation by Sea (Part 2)

Somewhere in the plain, more than a dozen cavalry scouts of the Kairus family were swaying. Although they were also scouts, their abilities were a huge difference compared to those scouts who sneaked into the enemy territory.

Their biggest function is to apologize and discover the enemy's situation in minutes, and then report and transmit information. To be honest, these cavalry are the real scouts, and those who sneak into the enemy's territory are already considered spies.

Although they were on the task of inquiring about the enemy's situation, these cavalry scouts didn't care about it. They already knew that the enemy was right in front of them, with tens of thousands of people coming. According to their own level, what else should I find out about this information? As long as you see the enemy, you will turn around and report it and you will be finished.

And his large army is about ten kilometers behind him. Even if the other party sends cavalry, he can return safely. Since that's the case, why be so nervous?

Just when these dozens of cavalry were leisurely, a row of black shadows appeared in front of them. When they looked closely, they turned out to be nearly ten standard imperial cavalry scouts.

Nowadays, except for the imperial capital and some powerful people who are loyal and passionate, no one's army is wearing the original imperial uniforms. Even if they don't have the time to change their clothes and money, they will slightly change the details of the clothes to make a difference. It can be said that if the warlord army sees an army wearing imperial uniforms, they don't have to think too much about it, it is definitely an enemy.

The cavalry was not really a soft man, so they immediately took action to guard the cavalry. A cavalry asked the cavalry leader, "Captain, you have discovered the enemy. Let's go back and report it?"

The captain of the team leader said with a serious look on his face: "What are you reporting to? This is the scout from the other side. We haven't seen the enemy's large army yet, how can we go back?"

Speaking of this, the captain suddenly smiled and said, "Besides, don't forget that there are less than ten people on the other side, which is a great opportunity to increase merit!"

The cavalrymen who heard this immediately changed, and after a while, they showed a reluctant smile and responded. They were not afraid that they could not win, but there were less than ten people on the other side, but there were fifteen on their side. They couldn't win? Just buy a piece of tofu and hit him to death.

What they were angry was that they were going to work hard and work hard again. Don’t they know what kind of virtue this captain is? Relying on the slightest blood relationship with the Khairus family, swallowing the hard work bar is almost instinct.

But although I was reluctant to do nothing, there was no way. Who said that he was the captain and did not obey military orders? The whole family was unlucky. They had no choice but to take the orders and lift the bow and arrow. The scouts were not interested in fighting with people.

However, when they pulled the strings and arrows, the enemy scouts on the opposite side actually made three arrows in a row with rapid movements. Before the Kairus cavalry could react, they felt a pain in their bodies and then they had no reaction.

Nearly ten imperial cavalry rushed up immediately and stopped dozens of war horses that were about to leave in all directions. While several cavalrymen comforted the war horses that had just lost their master, several other cavalrymen jumped off their horses and pulled out their sabers to cut off their heads.

An imperial cavalry who comforted the war horses, not only did he not feel scared when he saw this cruel scene, but he said excitedly: "Sir, we will get fifteen achievements like this? Isn't it too easy?

I just shot three arrows.”

An officer with the rank of sergeant commander smiled and said, "Didn't you listen to the news? What are fighting against us now are the private soldiers of local tyrants, not the regular imperial army."

The cavalry who was asking was stunned, and the cavalry who were eager to cut off their heads were stunned for a moment, then immediately checked the body. After a while, only one cavalry stood up with one head and cursed: "It's so unlucky. Fifteen people were killed, only one meritorious head, and all the others were peasant soldiers!"

When everyone's Lian was not good-looking, the sergeant still kept smiling.

"We are pretty good. Last time, those brothers destroyed dozens of enemy troops, so we can't even get a meritorious head?"

Hearing this, everyone could only accept their fate, and couldn't help but get up: "Oh, I really envy those secret guards. It is said that all they destroyed were meritorious heads!"

"Hey, don't be envious. Their achievements are not about calculating the head level, but about calculating the task. With our skills, we can't even get a candidate, let alone regular secret guards."

"That's right, I said that if you want to get a lot of merit, it is possible to fight against the Imperial Regular Army. These regular soldiers are even the heads of meritorious soldiers."

"Don't dream, we can't fight the regular army."

"How do we say it? We are going to conquer cities and plunder land for the lord, so why would we have a conflict with the regular army?"

"Not to mention that the Imperial Regular Army now exists only in the imperial capital. Even if there are regular troops here, we cannot start a war. You must know that our lord is now hanging, but the Imperial Army's rank is colonel."

"Well, this is true, our lord will still act through the tiger skin of the Imperial Army."

"It's good to know, so we can't miss the news in front of outsiders."

"Of course, we are all retainers of the lord, so how could the lord's big affairs be ruined?"

"Well, to be honest, at first I thought the lord took us soldiers as retainers as a stopgap, but in fact, we were used as soldiers." A cavalry exclaimed.

As soon as these words were said, the other cavalry immediately changed, and the sergeant even held the handle of the knife.

The cavalry was unintentional and everyone continued, "But I didn't expect that even such a secret matter would be known to us, the sword retainers who were equivalent to soldiers.

"Think about it, for other martial artists, I'm afraid only the top important officials can learn about this. From this, I know that the lord really treats us as real retainers."

Hearing these words, the cavalry deeply agreed and nodded with excitement.

The sergeant also put down his hand and said with a tense face: "Okay, this is the territory of the empire. Don't discuss these matters anymore. Anyway, remember it for me in the future. Even if my son asks about it, we can only say that we are the soldiers under Colonel Cons! Now we will clear away the scouts of the surrounding enemy troops!"

"Yes!" The cavalry immediately shut their mouths and followed the sergeant to leave.

As the troops slowly advanced, John Khairus' brows became tighter and tighter, and his mood became heavier and heavier. The feeling of danger was getting worse and stronger.

He sent five groups of scout troops, but none of them came back to report the news. It can be said that there were no regular scouts trained in his hands, and he could only send ordinary cavalry to serve as scouts. However, the cavalry of hundreds of people was gone like those scouts.

Is the other party's scout capable of being so strong? Or are those guys just ambushed? Why are these guys so stupid? Didn't they order them to run back immediately when they see the enemy? Do they really think that the other party, as a bandit, will let you fight?

But that's not reasonable. Those of my subordinates cannot be idiots and don't know how to escape even if they are impatient.

Alas, it’s a pity that my hundreds of war horses! Without so many war horses, I will definitely be ridiculed by the second generation ancestors when I go back.

John Kerus, who knew that he could not get the enemy's intelligence first, ordered with a tense face: "The entire army will move forward quickly, and each team will send ten scouts to order these scouts not to leave the brigade's sight!"

There is really no way to issue such an order, otherwise if you keep hitting dogs and keeping people away from the army to be scouts, you may be in a rebellion.

After the order was issued, John Kerus was very uncomfortable. The bandits had absolutely no such strong scouts. They should be Marines of the Third Fleet. These guys were dealing with pirates, so it was not surprising that the scouts had strong abilities. However, the Marines of the Third Fleet had been understood by the Kerus family. It was amazing that they were just a gang that had a good training.

Fortunately, I led three wings, and it seemed that the old guys could see far. Thinking of this, John Khairus' mood slowly returned to his senses.

After receiving the order, the soldiers with horses couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief and didn't have to die. However, this mentality only appeared among the cavalry, and the morale of the infantry was still very excited.

This is a very normal thing. Only cavalry can serve as scouts. Moreover, the cavalry has a higher status than infantry and is different from the two sides. Therefore, news of the fierce and fierce scouts of the enemy are only circulating among the cavalry, and others are still fantasizing about making achievements.

For some reason, although John Kerus ordered the speed to speed up, it was a little slower than the normal march just now. Everyone knows that it was the cavalry of the vanguard who deliberately suppressed the speed, which slowed down the entire army. But even John Kerus himself had no intention. It would be better to be slower, so that it would maintain the overall combat effectiveness.

I don’t know how long I have been away, but I look at the sky. It’s already afternoon. As I am used to, I will set up camp after a while. If the time is delayed, I can only hold up the torch to cook.

Just as everyone relaxed and dragged a little, the cavalry of the vanguard suddenly paused, and then several cavalry ran back: "Report! Five miles ahead, we found the enemy!"

"The whole army is on guard!"

John Khairus immediately issued an order, and rushed forward under the escort of a number of personal guards.

When you come to the front, the first thing that catches your eye is a plain, and then you will see that at the end of the plain, a black line is slowly expanding.

John Khairus looked at the awning with his hand in his hand and nodded: "It's dense, look at the width of about three or four miles away. There should be 20,000 people. This is the troops of the Third Fleet. He actually set up a formation? Do you think that if there are too many people, you can defeat us openly?

"Hmph! Order the troops to prepare for combat! Arrange a formation! Let them understand that the navy should stay at sea instead of boarding a land adventure!"

"yes!"

Several personal soldiers immediately conveyed their words. The soldiers who were already on guard immediately followed the command of their superiors and began to wipe the blade, pull up the bowstring to organize the equipment. Then, under the guidance of their direct superiors, they set up a horizontal formation, and then took big steps to meet them with the sound of drums.

Of course, Cons also found traces of the enemy and was waiting quietly. Except for the Third Fleet Marines on the field, there was silence in other places, and even the war horses would occasionally make a low sound.

After listening to the secret guard's report, Cons looked at a black line in the distance and waved his hand: "Continue to move forward."

When the order was issued, the rumbling footsteps sounded. When both sides could see each other, which was about one kilometer apart, John Kerot waved his hand: "Cabinets will be dispatched, give them a warning!"

After receiving the order, the cavalry team in front immediately formed a team, and then under the leadership of the officer, instigated the horses and then whipped the horses. When the horses started running, they drew out their sabers and prepared to give the enemy in front a ruthless one.

Looking at the cavalry that was almost a regiment, John Khairus was proud. In the empire, the cavalry was cutting-edge force. If the conditions were met, it would not be a miracle for the cavalry of this regiment to break through a pure infantry division. Now rushing towards those bandits, it is estimated that they would be able to disperse the bandits without much effort.

Cons saw the cavalry's movement at the first time, frowned and waved his hands. A large group of Lei family cavalry rushed forward. At this time, the vanguard battle, the means to boost morale and attack the enemy's anger were the level version of the duel of generals.

Seeing Cons' frown, Xiang Wen said carefully: "Sir, we have too few cavalry, but the transport ship has returned to pick up the next batch of soldiers. This time, we should be able to send all the remaining inner guard cavalry here."

Cons was also a sensitive person and immediately knew how Xiang Wen could say this. He shook his head and said, "I don't care about this. I wonder why the opponent's cavalry is just a piece of leather armor and a sabre. According to the standard equipment of the imperial cavalry is a set of cavalry armor, a sabre, a sabre, two pots of iron arrows and a sabre."

Hearing this, Xiang Wen hesitated for a moment before saying, "Sir, this is the standard equipment of the cavalry of the Imperial Guards. The other party is just a local private soldier, so it is impossible to equip these."

Upon hearing this, Cons patted his head and said that he was really living a good life, thinking that others were living the same as him.

Why didn't I expect that my so-called standard equipment is the top-notch? Has I not been to the grassroots level for too long, so this kind of misunderstanding occurred? Thinking of this, Cons smiled self-deprecatingly.

Thousands of charge of the Kairus cavalry were happy to see that there were not even a thousand cavalry on the other side. John Kerus was also smiling.

John Kerus even wanted to directly order the entire team to follow the cavalry so that the cavalry would not take up all the credit. Of course, he still endured this order. Now he still took over the front line and could not suppress the entire army. If there was any accident, he would not have time to cry.

In this way, John Khairus was thinking about it, waiting for the victory of Xinshan's cavalry, while enjoying the flattery of his subordinates. It was very comfortable to use it with all their hearts.

However, they were soon stunned by the rapid emergence of the results of the battle.

When the Kors cavalry approached the Kairus cavalry three or four hundred meters, they took out their bows and arrows, pulled the arrows and pulled the strings to aim.

The team on John Khairus can only vaguely see the shaking of the figure due to their vision, and I don’t know what the Cons cavalry are doing.

But the Khairus cavalry, who was only a few hundred meters away, clearly found that they were aimed at by bows and arrows!

The Khairus cavalry in the front row couldn't help but open their mouths and grinned with a mocking expression.

Yes, these cavalry not only were not afraid, but laughed at them. Everyone knew that "riding and shooting" was not a skill that could be shown by being able to ride a horse and shooting archery. Without superb horsemanship and superb archery skills, you should not even imagine being able to hit the target while riding a horse.

If there are thousands of people on the other side, you have to worry about it. Because of the intensive shooting, a blind cat will encounter dead mice, but how many people are there now? You will not be shot even if you stand still, let alone you are running at high speed now!

Hey, look at me cutting off your head with one knife! The front row of Khairus cavalry all had bloodthirsty expressions, clasped the sabers tightly, and rushed towards Cons' army with a ferocious face.

The Kons cavalry of this brigade is not a cavalry battalion, but an inner guard battalion. It can be absolutely said that they, who came from the inner guard, have higher abilities in all aspects than other troops, and their cavalry brigade that followed Kons to Shanghai Bin Province was selected in the entire inner guard cavalry after a fight.
