Lord of the Oasis

Chapter 288. The Tactics of Desert Bandits

The horn was blown.

A dull and long sound is delivered in this desert.

This is Kant's order, and the cavalry, who have been lined up in a neat queue, acted with the sound of the long horn, and the horses hoofs rushed into this flat desert.

Rolfe personally led 120 Salander riders, clenching the machete and looking solemn.

And the 220 desert robbers dressed in light clothes had already rushed out, like sparrows scattered in the sky, and more like wolves scattered in all directions, waiting for an opportunity.

The Sarandians have a soul-based familiarity with the desert.

They are the people living in the desert.

Be the elite in the desert!

At the inn, the caravan guards and motorcades were restless. Looking at the caravan leaders at the top of the inn, they panicked, as if they had encountered a horse thief and wanted to avoid them, but they did not dare to leave the leader without authorization.

Even when he saw Rolf lead the cavalry to resist, he still felt uneasy.

Including those businessmen on the roof.

Everyone can see the fighting strength of both sides.

Rolf is indeed ferocious, just like the leader of a robber, but this does not mean combat effectiveness!

With 600 fully-armed, chain-armored, well-trained, elite knight attendants, plus the knights who lead the team as commanders, it is extremely easy to destroy the same number of horse thieves!

A regular army is an elite force that can crush bandit gangs.

Rolf's troops.

The most numerous desert robbers are still poor light cavalry in leather armor.

In the battle sequence of the Principality of Lions, only the troops responsible for reconnaissance, except the poorest and hardest nobles, will use these cavalry, that is, the caravan guards, will be equipped with this kind of armor.

Although leather armor has a certain defensive effect, it is extremely limited.

Even those robbers and horse thieves with aristocratic backgrounds would not each have a set of chain mail, such as two layers of iron-inlaid leather armor. How could they be like the light cavalry led by Rolfe, whose armor was so pitiful that they could not bear to look directly at them.

Even if there are 120 Salander riders who look similar to the knight attendants.

But the number is very small.

This is against those knights and servants, and they will be crushed on the spot in minutes!

The hearts of these businessmen are beating very fast.

Looking at Kant, who had his back to him and was still holding a silver cup, his eyes were also very bad.

They can already guess that these cavalry are all of Kant's capital. Perhaps in the Naron desert, if you are careful, you can completely defend the sentry oasis and this post, but if you fight against the strong, you will definitely fight chickens and eggs.

The army of 600 knight attendants can already be called the regular army of the Lion Principality.

And these businessmen have different minds.

Looking at Kant's eyes, it even implies resentment.

The previous servility and the present fear are the reasons for these businessmen to resent Kant.

As long as Kant loses his troops as a support, the nobles behind these businessmen will extend their hands into this desert, just like the knights and servants appearing now, and maybe they can also talk about the open and secret battles of the nobles.

If these knight attendants really kill them, it will represent a war between nobles!

The salt mines in this desert will not be swallowed by a few nobles alone.

It can only be a win-win situation.

However, in this win-win situation, Kant, the original lord of the Naron Desert, will never be included.

The businessmen looked at each other, each with a heavy breath, nodded to each other, and understood the meaning in their eyes. Now that they are united, they find that they are not so afraid of these soldiers and Kant. Instead, there is a kind of unity. The confidence, which appeared in their hearts, was able to fight against the Kant Chamber. Phoenix Nine Heavens

But this is just their illusion. The royal knights and the light infantry watched the small movements behind the backs of the group of businessmen, their faces were expressionless, but their eyes were extremely vigilant.

If Kant speaks and commands, there will be blood and blood on this roof.

They can do it.

But Kant did not speak, nor did he order.

Shaking the red sugar water in the silver cup, the sweet and greasy feeling in the mouth has not dissipated. Looking at the dust and a famous rider in the distance, the smile on the corner of the mouth still remains.

Two cavalry units were approaching.

The cavalry team composed of 600 knight attendants slowly slowed down, as if they had something to say.

However, on the two wings, riding a desert horse suitable for desert rushing, the desert robber dressed in light clothing did not stop.

And Rolfe led the Salander riders to a stop, and 120 people formed a 3-row team, lined up in a charge posture with long guns.

The tactics adopted by the two are different.

But close contact!

This is the wolf pack tactics that the Sarandians learned when they fought against the Khugets.

The scattered desert robbers are the wolves that lure and drive away the enemy, while the Sarandian riders who are lined up in a charge posture are the wolf king guards who give the enemy the final blow and completely tear the enemy's throat!

They are few in number, but well-structured and tactically clear.

Hundreds of years of disputes in Calradia have turned these nations into war machines!

600 knight attendants slowed down.

They spotted desert robbers scattered on both sides.

However, based on their own strength, they chose to ignore them, but they still moved closer to each other, guarding the surrounding area with shields, intending to move forward and talk to the opposing cavalry who were standing.

It is best to solve these enemies without bloodshed. When they come here, they are mainly deterrence.

Countess Agatha's order was clear.

Destroy Baron Kant's armed forces, control the young baron, and indirectly control the Naron Desert.

As for the merchants who came here, if they dared to resist, they would all be killed. If they did not resist, they would gather together with the troops of Baron Kant who surrendered and be buried alive in the desert.

There is no need for other people's forces to appear in the Naron Desert besides them.

Led by 2 great knights.

The base and middle commanders are 40 knights, and the rest are knight attendants.

This is the reliance of the Gusty Wind Mercenary Group that used to traverse the 3 counties of the Principality of Lions. It is usually quiet, but as long as there is action, they will appear and show their fangs.

These secret hands of Agatha, the countess of East County, have always been known for their bloody and ruthless nature.

But their idea was miscalculated.

Rolfe had no intention of talking to them at all.

There is no idea that he is at a disadvantage, so he can easily capture it.

Seeing the other party slowing down at a distance of 500 meters, it seemed that he wanted to express the appearance of negotiation. The corners of his mouth curled into a disdainful smile.

This is an offense, no need to keep your hands on orders!

Command to the Desert Bandit.

"Puff puff puff puff puff"

Horseshoes strike the sand. [Comprehensive] Raiders Code

Strange noises continued.

The desert robbers rode their horses and ran wildly on the two wings, revolving around the 600 knights and attendants, neither approaching nor far away, they converged into one place, just like wolves and vultures waiting for an opportunity.

It's just their equipment that made those knight servants who disguised as the Gale Mercenary Group show a mocking face.

What can these cavalry in leather armor do?

In close combat, these cavalry will be chased and slaughtered by these knight attendants!

Their Gale Wind Mercenary Group is not a vain name. They once captured the border town of the Silver Plate Kingdom. The townspeople armed cavalry of the Self-Defense Force were wearing leather armor, and they were forcibly cut off by them, and then easily slaughtered. .

The equipment advantage, sometimes so terrifying, can influence the battlefield situation.

Besides, they are still cavalry!

But how could the battlefield turn out as they expected.

Just like the invincible heavy cavalry of Swadia, who faced the highly mobile cavalry archers of the Kugits on the grasslands, and encountered the bludgeoning iron cavalry of the Sarandians with strong armor in the desert, for a while. It is impossible to distinguish the advantages of the enemy from us.

Don't use your original thinking to measure your opponent, it will be fatal on the battlefield!

The desert robbers will teach this group of arrogant knight servants today.

What is tragic!

The horses quickly ran around them, encircling the knights and attendants in a circle, and just after the warm-up of the desert horses under the crotch, the desert robbers drew their short javelins behind their backs.

And the ring of the horse galloping, unknowingly, gradually compressed inward.

Approach slowly from a range of more than 50 meters.

Eventually, at a range of about 10 meters, both sides could see each other's faces.

The eyes of the knights and servants narrowed.

In the panic, the kite-shaped shield in their hands instantly lifted.

"swish swish swish"

The sound of breaking the air continued.

One after another black shadows flew out of the ring array in an instant with the desert robbers racing wildly.

It was the short javelin they had held in their hands.

It was heavily nailed to the raised kite-shaped shield.

"Dang Dang Dang Dang Dang Dang"

The dull thumping sound was incessant, and the entire shield was pierced by the stout short javelin.

What's more, the short javelin thrown at extreme speed was nailed to the helmet, and the sharp point of the javelin pierced the helmet instantly, smashed the skull, and directly killed the hapless knight servant!

The ring-mounted archery that was born out of the Kugits has become a short version of the javelin in the hands of desert robbers.

But the effect remains.

The lethality is stronger because of throwing javelins!

The javelin can pierce armor.

At close range, within a range of 20 meters, these desert robbers threw short javelins with the inertia of fast rushing attacks. As long as they hit the body, it is deadly and can instantly solve the opponent's terrifying weapons!

220 desert robbers, each with 4 short javelins.

instant time.

The javelin was like rain, splashing on the group of knight servants who were caught off guard.

People shouted horses neighing, blood splashed everywhere!
