Game of Thrones: Knight of Glory - Chapter 115 Battle of Annihilation
“Should we wait until night for a sneak attack?” Nymeria asked, looking at the Ironborn camp below.
“No, let’s do it now!” Linde shook his head and said, “Now is the right time.”
There is some chaos in the Ironborn camp now. Because of Rodrik’s order, various nobles are busy gathering their own armies, and the Ironborn of each army are also looking for the position of their leader. Everyone’s attention is in the camp. , not realizing at all that an uninvited guest had arrived on the hill not far from them.
Lind rode his horse back to the military formation behind the hill and assigned tasks to everyone: “Nymeria, you lead the army in Tengshi Town to eliminate deserters on the outside. The cavalry team will ride on the outside in accordance with the training methods in the past. Shoot, shoot all the arrows before you can use the cavalry to charge into the formation.” As he said, he turned to look at Steveron Frey and Jon Amber, and said: “Lord Steveron, Lord Umber, you will lead the Frey family’s cavalry and charge into battle with me later.”
Jon Amber raised the weapon in his hand with excitement, indicating that he couldn’t wait.
“Ah?” Steve Lun, on the other hand, looked panicked and said, “Sir, many of our cavalry have just been formed and are not capable of fighting immediately…”
“This is an order, not a discussion, Sir Steve Lun.” Linde did not give Steve Lun a chance to defend himself, and said in a deep voice: “You will follow me closely later, don’t fall behind, do you understand? “
“Yes, sir.” Steve Lun felt the bursts of pressure coming from Linde and had to lower his head and responded.
As the order was issued, the teams began to assemble according to their respective camps. The Frey family’s cavalry, led by Steve Lun, followed Linde with a confused look on their faces.
After all the troops were in place, Lind signaled Glory to stay with Nymeria, and then drove Ebon Blade to run over the hill. Steveron, who had a grimace on his face, did not dare to neglect, and quickly led Fo The Lei family’s cavalry followed, and Jon Umber’s Northern cavalry followed closely behind, playing the role of supervising the battle team.
When the team just crossed the hill and rushed down the hill, the Ironborn camp saw them. The Ironborn were a little panicked, but they quickly calmed down. Rodrik, who was standing in the camp, roared loudly. He set up his defenses and summoned the Greyjoy soldiers to his side.
Teams of ironmen picked up the weapons around them and rushed outside the camp. Some knights and nobles of the Iron Islands directed their men to form defenses.
However, they obviously underestimated the speed of the black blade under Lind’s crotch. The black blade that was galloping on the hill a moment ago had already rushed outside the camp. The Frey family’s cavalry behind them was pulled away for a long distance. And it’s not that the Freys deliberately slowed down, but Hei Feng’s speed was simply too fast.
When the ironmen saw someone rushing over alone, they thought this person was crazy. Although the giant war horse rushing in front of them looked very scary, the ironmen still raised the spear in their hands well-trained, thinking The person who rushes over must be tied up into a honeycomb, including people and horses.
Unfortunately, they met Linde. The heavy armor specially made for Hei Feng easily deflected the spear in front of him. Then Hei Feng turned into a boulder rolling down from the mountain and was knocked away. The ironmen blocking the road, and the people on both sides of the war horse, were even worse. They only saw a burst of light flashing in front of their eyes, and then they were all cut into two halves and lay on the ground.
Linde and the war horse Hei Feng under his crotch were like two unstoppable monsters. They rushed out of the crowd and made it difficult for those who were in front or those who were too close. Escape to death, blood flowed wherever they passed, forming a bloody path, it looked as if they came on blood.
When Steveron led the Frey family’s cavalry to the camp, the defensive formation just formed by the Ironborn had been completely broken up, and Lind had already rushed all the way to the center of the camp, with at least several people lying behind him. Hundreds of corpses.
Steveron was shocked by Lind’s fighting prowess, and even had a hint of inexplicable admiration, but he didn’t have any free time to think now, because he and the Frey family’s cavalry had already collided with the Ironborn warriors. .
Because Linde had already shattered the Ironborn’s will to fight and dispersed the Ironborn’s formation, these Ironborn were completely unable to organize resistance in the face of the Frey family’s cavalry, and each one was extremely excited. The Frey cavalry fell to the ground.
The Frey family’s cavalry were also extremely excited at this moment, because they had never encountered such a smooth battle. The enemies they faced were like wooden stakes standing in place, allowing them to chop them down, seemingly every time. They can kill an enemy with a single slash.
The Northern Cavalry, led by Jon Amber, quickly bypassed the Frey family’s position and rushed towards the other assembled troops in the camp.
At the same time, outside the Ironborn camp, Nymeria led the others and began to split into two groups, galloping quickly along the edge of the camp. At the same time, she picked up a specially made short bow and shot into the camp. A powerful arrow.
Facing the enemies in the camp, they didn’t need to take special aim at all, they just needed to shoot arrows diagonally.
One after another, the flying sharp arrows drew an arc in the air and landed on the ironmen in the camp. The metal arrows pierced through their leather armor and penetrated into their bodies, piercing into their internal organs. They instantly lost their combat effectiveness.
Because these arrows came from all directions, there was no way to hide. The ironmen warriors in the camp fell into the rain of arrows in large numbers, and more ironmen were panicking for shelters to hide from, even at the expense of the corpses of their companions. Carry it on your body to ward off arrows.
Many knights and nobles who commanded the army were killed in the rain of arrows, and there was no way to organize a defense. All the ironmen blindly moved towards the Greyjoy family’s sea monster flag in the center of the camp.
But when they had just approached the center of the camp, they saw the sea monster flag fell down. Under the chopped flagpole stood a terrifying knight wearing exquisite armor and holding two knight’s swords. In the knight’s hand, he was holding a sword. This time it was the head of Rodrik Greyjoy, the commander of the Ironborn army.
At this moment, none of the ironmen had the slightest idea of attacking the knight, because the countless corpses piled up around the knight had already shown them the results of attacking the opponent.
I don’t know who was the first to drop the weapons in his hands and kneel down. In short, the ironmen who fell into despair all dropped their weapons one by one, knelt down and surrendered.
Soon the wind of surrender spread from Greyjoy’s barracks in the center of the camp, and soon spread to the entire Ironborn camp.
At this time, the Frey family and the cavalry in the north had become murderous. When they saw the ironmen surrendering, they wanted to slash with their swords, but dozens of arrows flew over and pierced their arms, stopping them. their actions.
Immediately afterwards, they saw Daisy leading the cavalry in front of them, shouting to Steve Lun and Jon Amber, who were not far away: “Sir Steve Lun, Mr. Amber, what are you doing?” Have you forgotten Lord Linde’s order? Or are you going to disobey Lord Linde’s order?”
Hearing Daisy’s cry, the two of them immediately woke up from the killing and shouted loudly to their men, “Stop, stop them all! Lord Linde has ordered, surrender without killing! Surrender without killing.” !”
The cavalrymen from the two families quickly recovered from the fighting mood, while those who were still awake were directly kicked off their horses by their companions. They did not want to be punished by Linde for some idiots who could not control themselves.
During this battle, they really realized that the propaganda against Linde by the Church of the Seven Gods was all true, and even the contents of those propagandas were far from being compared with Linde’s real combat power. They didn’t know that Linde killed How many people died, but it is certain that it was at least a thousand people, and the reason why this battle was able to end so quickly was entirely because of Linde’s god-like combat power.
Under the influence of extreme fear and admiration for Lind, everyone, including Steve Lun and Jon Amber, couldn’t help but raise their weapons high and cheer loudly, “Lind the Chosen One! God’s Chosen One!” Choose Linde!”
When the fighting in the camp was over, the fighting outside the camp was not yet over. Many ironmen did not choose to surrender, but escaped from the camp and fled towards the distant forests, hills and even towards the seaside, trying to Escaped the massacre against them.
However, when training his and Nymeria’s cavalry, Lind specifically trained on how to hunt down those who escaped.
I saw these fleeing ironmen being driven together by the cavalry from Tengshi Town led by Nymeria. Then they faced countless arrows and harvested in groups. In the end, except for two or three who were lucky, they escaped into the sea and sneaked into the sea. In the water, except for those who escaped, thousands of others died in the pursuit.
On the city wall of Seaside City, Patrick Mallister and his staff, as well as the garrison soldiers of Seaside City, were all shocked to see the battle in the Ironborn camp outside the city. It was not that they did not want to support the battle outside. It was entirely because there was no time for support.
It only lasted twenty minutes from the beginning of the battle to the end of the battle. Patrick had just put on his armor, organized all the cavalry in Haijiang City, and arrived at the gate of Haijiang City, preparing to raise the city gate and charge. He went out and killed the enemy with the reinforcements outside the city, but the battle ended.
When Patrick led the people back onto the city wall, they heard bursts of cheers coming from the Ironborn camp, and the name of the cheers was only Lind, the Chosen One.
In the eyes of everyone in Seaside City on the city wall, it is very easy to identify who the Chosen Lind is. In the middle of the Ironborn camp, where Rodrik Greyjoy’s main camp was, there is a knight wearing gorgeous armor. Sitting astride an unusually tall heavily armored war horse, surrounded by bloody corpses and thousands of ironmen kneeling on the ground, not daring to raise their heads.
“This will be a world-famous painting!” Patrick, who knew how to paint, remembered everything in front of him with excitement, and secretly decided to paint it.
“Sir, you should go greet Lord Linde now.” Tiers also looked at the battlefield outside the city excitedly and reminded Patrick.
“Yes, yes! I should go to greet Lord Linde.” Patrick nodded repeatedly and prepared to go down to the city wall to greet Linde.
“Wait, Patrick.” But he was stopped by General Hoth, and he followed General Hoth and said: “The battle outside has just ended. There are still many people in the Ironborn camp. Although they have surrendered now, If they find that they have more people later and resist, you will be in danger if you go there, and it will also cause obstacles to Lord Linde and the others, so it is better for you to stay in the city. On behalf of the Earl, I It would be more appropriate to go outside to meet the reinforcements.”
Patrick was naturally unwilling, but he could not persuade General Hoth. In the end, General Hoth could only send a dozen knights, more than 300 cavalry and a thousand soldiers out of the city to meet Linde, and also cooperated with Linde. Take prisoners.
After that, the collection of Ironmen prisoners was not particularly smooth. During the process of collecting the surrendered Ironmen, some Ironmen tried to resist and tried to snatch the cavalry horses and escape, but they were quickly noticed by the Linde Cavalry and took them away. Shot into a hedgehog.
With the example of resistance, the remaining people gave up the idea of escape and accepted the discipline honestly. They disarmed their weapons and equipment one by one, tied their hands behind their backs, and tied every ten people around their necks with a noose. The ropes were connected, and they were told that if one of them escaped, all those on the same rope would be put to death.
It’s no wonder that Linde wanted to use this method of sitting together, because there were really many people captured this time. There were more than 10,000 people in the entire Ironborn camp, and nearly 6,000 of them died in the more than 20 minutes of battle. .
Lind rushed down and killed at least a thousand people. Most of them were Greyjoy warriors who were protecting Rodrik. This did not include the people he killed on the way to the middle camp. If you include those people, there are almost two thousand people.
The Frey family and the Northern Cavalry followed Lind and killed more than 2,000 stragglers, while Nymeria and others rode outside and killed more than 1,000 people. They also chased and killed the escaping Ironborn. There were more than a thousand people, and in the end, the total number was about 6,000.
From the remaining more than 9,000 Ironborn, some people who died of serious injuries and those who were seriously injured had to be eliminated. In the end, there were almost more than 8,000 Ironborn prisoners.
In order to facilitate the management of these prisoners, Linde had to break them up into teams and use the continuous sitting method to let them monitor each other. One person in one team would escape and sit in another team. Among ten teams, one team would escape and sit in a row. Team ten.
Although this method was unreasonable and unreasonable, it was extremely efficient. Several times, one of the captives wanted to escape, but before he could take action, he was reported by the ironmen who were also captives next to him. Several people even worked together to kill him. The restless companion strangled him to avoid being implicated by him.
In this battle, Lind’s cavalry and Nymeria’s army were all riding and shooting from the outside to attack, or chasing down deserters. There was no strong resistance. Only Nymeria’s army suffered dozens of injuries. That’s all.
The Frey family’s cavalry followed Linde directly into the camp, specifically targeting the ironmen who had lost their will to fight. There were only more than a hundred casualties.
Only the Northern Cavalry led by Jon Amber faced the Ironborn head-on. Although the Ironborn they fought had been defeated by Linde, they could not form a formation to cooperate with each other to deal with the enemy, but in the face of death At this time, the ferocity of the ironmen still came into play, and they adopted the method of fighting to the death together, exchanging one for one with the northern cavalry.
In the end, the cavalry losses of the Northern Cavalry were heavy. More than 400 people were killed, and more than 200 people were seriously injured. Almost everyone was slightly injured, including Jon Amber.
But even so, the Northern Cavalry felt that this battle was very worthwhile. Thousands of people defeated an army of more than 10,000 people, killing thousands of enemies and capturing nearly 10,000 people at the cost of hundreds of casualties. The results of any classic war are worthy of bragging.
Not only did they not resent Lynd for bringing them to the battlefield, they even felt honored to be able to participate in such a wonderful battle. They even had a strong admiration for Lynd. Even Jon Amber, who had always looked down on the southerners, is also like this.
