Black Iron Crown

Chapter 698 The Sacrifice of Sir Andrew

Each of the Templars is an elite unit with rich combat experience.

Most of them grew up under the upbringing of the church, received rigorous training and education, were extremely devout in their belief in the Holy Father, and were loyal to Pope Rosa at the same time.

In addition to the knights who grew up in the church, there are also a group of knights from various families. They are the second sons without inheritance rights, or pious knights who have sworn oaths of allegiance to the faith.

Adhering to good qualities such as simplicity and frugality, they are not afraid of death, and they can explode powerful combat effectiveness on the battlefield.

Although these people live a simple life, the church, which has always been rich and powerful, will not watch the elite troops in its hands sacrifice on the battlefield in vain, so their equipment is also very sophisticated.

The double armor is worn on the body, but this does not seem to bring too much burden to these knights.

On the outermost part of the armor is a set of cross gowns representing the church. Although there are not too many decorations, its momentum is faintly leaked.

The number of these knights plus the trainee knights reached more than 700, which was only less than 200 less than the knights under Reiner's command.

And most of them are elites, and only with sufficient combat power can they ride horses and fight together.

The knights under Reiner's command, except for more than 300 elite blood-colored griffin knights, the rest of the knights are slightly inferior in combat effectiveness, and their quality varies.

Close to the direction of Reiner's army, Sir Andrew was riding on the back of a war horse. Although his body was relatively weak, as a military nobleman, he had to bear such responsibilities.

Sir Andrew, who saw the movements of the enemy knights in his eyes, seemed worried. Although he didn't often lead troops, he still knew some tactics.

The knights of one's own side are ready to charge, and the knights of the enemy are also ready. If the two knights are entangled, it will be difficult to tell the winner in a short time.

However, the current situation could no longer allow the knights on both sides to fight for a long time. Within ten minutes, the left wing of the imperial army was in danger of being broken by the enemy.

Although the imperial central army has been doing its best to attack the enemy's central army, intending to advance and defeat the enemy, the enemy's central army also has sufficient resilience and combat effectiveness.

The armor on their bodies endowed them with powerful defenses. Although they were a little weak, they obviously wouldn't collapse within ten minutes.

Sir Andrew was also trained as an heir. He could tell at a glance that Reiner sent the knights to reverse the situation in front of him, but it was obviously not easy.

Standing on the high platform, Leiner could see everything in the distance clearly, including the movements of the enemy knights, all of which fell into his eyes.

At this time, he also felt that riding a tiger was difficult. Although the fighting power of the northern border army was strong, it had not yet achieved an overwhelming advantage over the holy war army. The number of enemies was larger, which was naturally very dangerous.

With this move, he has put all his bets on the Scarlet Griffin Knights, and he has no more cards in his hand.

If the Scarlet Griffon Knights win, then this war will be won.

If the Scarlet Griffin Knights were defeated, he would also be defeated along with it.

At this moment, his heart was suspended.

Because Earl Valas had rushed to the side of the enemy's central army with the Scarlet Griffin Knights.

"Quick! Faster!" Reiner muttered silently in his heart, he felt his heart beating violently, as if it had already jumped to his throat, he hadn't experienced such a flustered feeling in his heart for a long time.

Once defeated, not only will the soldiers under his command suffer countless casualties,

The seized throne is in jeopardy, and he will even be driven back to the northern border, even his life will be greatly threatened.

"Sure..." Reiner's lips under the mask were tightly pressed together, praying quietly in his heart.

This kind of gamble to block the fate of the country is too dangerous, and Leiner does not want to gamble a second time in his life.

Earl Valas led the Scarlet Griffin Knights to launch an overwhelming charge.

The general of the Crusaders reacted very quickly, and he immediately ordered the Templars to rush towards the location of the Scarlet Griffin Knights.

Sir Andrew's heart was full of unease, and he was thinking in a dilemma. In his opinion, if the knights of both sides fought together, there would be no hope of winning.

He took a deep breath.

"You damn sick bastard, what are you afraid of! Frante has always helped you, now is the time for you to repay her!" Sir Andrew cursed his cowardly self in his heart.

Suddenly, he snatched the formation flag from the flag-bearer beside him, and waved it vigorously in his hand.

"Listen, all Southerners! Let the Northerners see! There are no cowards among us! All knights from the South! Charge with me!"

Sir Andrew threw back his visor, and shouted these words with all his might.

As he spoke, he took the formation flag in his hand and charged it out immediately.

The knights under his command froze for a moment, then hurriedly shouted: "Follow up! Protect Sir!"

More than fifty knights rushed out in an instant, and hurriedly caught up with Sir Andrew.

Besides these fifty knights, the rest of the lords from the south also rushed out with their cavalry troops, and the knights with a total of more than 200 people quickly caught up with Sir Andrew and his party in front of them. people.

"Sir Andrew!" After Sir Andrew rushed out, Reiner realized that he hadn't understood what Andrew was going to do.

"Southerners are not cowardly!" After he realized it, he sighed, and at the same time he was deeply worried about Sir Andrew's safety.

"Advance me, the Chinese army! Push!" Leiner couldn't do anything at this time, the only thing he could do was to continue to put pressure on the enemy's Chinese army.

Sir Andrew and the others quickly caught up, and their position was closer to the enemy knights than the Scarlet Griffon Knights.

"Glory is my life! Even if I die on the battlefield, I will not hesitate! Everyone fight with me!"

Whether they were knights from the south or the north, they all valued glory equally. It was an honor for all of them to follow Sir Andrew in such a feat in front of tens of thousands of people.

Earl Valas was already ready to start a hand-to-hand fight with the enemy knights, but he suddenly found that one of his own knights took the initiative to meet the enemy, and he couldn't help but be overjoyed.

Hastily shouted: "Target enemy's middle army! Charge immediately!"

As he spoke, he clamped the horse's belly once, and the spurs on his boots pierced deeply into the flesh and blood of the horse, which once again increased the horse's speed a little.

None of the knights behind them hurriedly followed, put down their lances, and the enemy's central army was a hundred meters in front of them.

At this time, Sir Andrew had already led more than 200 knights to collide with the Templars.

Even though the Knights Templar tried their best to avoid collision with them, hoping to entangle the Scarlet Griffin Knights, Sir Andrew had already made up his mind that even though he died without regrets, these Templars could not be thrown away at all.

In desperation, the Templars had no choice but to confront the Southern Knights.
