The Sun King's Evidence
Chapter 1213, Bo Derek’s decision
Standing on the ruins of the Principality of Aquitaine, Duke Bordeaux, Bodrick, couldn't help but think of the previous turmoil.
Bodrick is already a hundred years old this year. If he hadn't drank the water of the Holy Grail, the old Duke would have been completely aged by now. Even after drinking the water of the Holy Grail and then stepping into the sanctuary, Bodrick began to gradually understand There is not much interest in internal affairs anymore.
In the previous civil strife, Bodrick himself had always been in a neutral position. He neither sided with Ryan nor chose to join Free Britannia, even if the knights and nobles there started to win over him. Even though the price was extremely high, the old Duke remained unmoved.
He was really tired.
But he knew how serious the crisis was this time. Carcassonne had been destroyed, and the Skaven were marching straight into the hinterland of Britannia, and even into the city of Jean in Lane. If the enemy could not be intercepted in the old Aki, In the Principality of Tan, the disaster of the Skaven would greatly devastate the entire Kingdom of Knights, so Bodrick himself decided to lead the attack in person.
The old Duke couldn't help but smile when he thought of this. His son Fedmund gradually matured and had children.
Naturally, there will not be too many Bordeaux troops temporarily mobilized, but thanks to Bordeaux's extremely prosperous urban business environment, high degree of industrialization, and the continued expansion of the Poseidon fleet, with just an order from Ryan, Bordeaux immediately formed an army. An army of 12,000 men marched out of the duchy. Although Boderick knew that the number of Skaven was countless, so what? Ratmen always rely on numbers to win.
As master, Boderick's army was in the center of the line, with Poseidon Knights and Mannann Guards guarding the Duke himself, as well as Bordeleau's marines and five regiments of freedmen infantry, which had proven to be very durable. The test, unlike most of the principalities of Brittany, Bordeaux was the first principality to equip artillery. The old Duke looked at his two artillery regiments, with a total of 22 artillery pieces and 4 rocket launchers, and he was still satisfied.
The army on the left was the defeated Vichy army of Juan, Duke of Magritte, with 4,000 men. These troops were composed of the Estalia militia, knights of the three knight orders and a small number of Juan's own soldiers.
Bodrick looked down upon this group of Estalians. Due to historical reasons and the pride of the Poseidon Fleet having defeated the Armada, the Duke of Bordeaux and the Admiral of Brittania believed that the Estalians were all These bereft dogs without eggs.
The army on the right was the Berlion Army, led by Duke Theodoric, with 3,000 men.
This is also an old cunning guy. As soon as the goddess' belief came into question, the Duke once again started his career of repeated provocations. His attitude towards the Lady of the Lake, the patron saint of the kingdom, was that he did not deny the goddess' love for Britta. Although he did not think that nothing happened, in the face of Ryan's speech and orders, Theodoric did not listen to the announcement. He still stayed in the Principality of Belion and monitored every move of the southern country. From this point of view, Theodoric was competent.
But after losing the lady's faith, this guy's old habits relapsed. He began to drink and indulge in sex again, hooking up with noble women and even the wives of free people. Duke Theodoric's old problems made him probably He would never be able to get close to the Holy Grail, but he didn't care.
Things soon reversed. With the success of Ryan's speech, the first thing Theodoric did was to repent. He immediately responded to Ryan's order and loudly confessed his sins to the goddess. If he wanted to fight, To show his sincerity, Theodoric did it. Under his horse now hung the heads of five Skaven warlords, Gray Seers or Skaven captains.
Theodoric must fight first and charge forward. Bodrick was surprised by Theodoric's bravery and determination. However, being reckless is not a bad thing for knights in many cases, right?
"Our central army will be responsible for dealing with the enemy's main force." Tactics were very familiar to Bodrick. The naval marshal said to Juan and Theodoric: "Our artillery, musketeers and crossbowmen corps will be Skaven engagement, our strong shield walls and arrays will be able to handle the Skaven numbers, and when the time is right, the knights charge through the flanks, targeting the Skaven warlord."
"A group charge of knights? This is too obvious." Juan hesitated.
"The Prophets of the Lake God will provide us with thick fog cover." Bo Derek continued: "The Knights of the Poseidon will also assist you, and I will charge with them."
"I understand the Skaven. These rats can't stand any setbacks, and our knights will give them the most fatal blow!" Duke Theodoric said excitedly.
Gradually, thick fog began to appear on the plains.
Boderick de Bordero, the old Duke of Bordero looked at the battlefield he had chosen. The Principality of Aquitaine was once a very beautiful and fertile place, with crisscrossed fields and prosperous manors. and noble knights, but everything changed after the Red Duke incident.
Most of the current Principality of Aquitaine has been merged into the Principality of Bordeaux. Most of this place is plain and undefeable, which is very conducive to cavalry charges. Historically, this principality was not easy to be surrounded because it was surrounded. Facing the invasion of foreign enemies, the knights and nobles here loved internal fighting. They built a large number of castles on the plains. As time passed, most of these castles became ruins.
Perhaps one day the prosperous Bordeaux will also be in ruins?
Bo Derek looked at the beautiful scenery in the distance, the pastoral scenery of Aquitaine, and the old Duke could already faintly hear the bells of the Skaven and the very messy horns.
Regarding the truth about the Lady of the Lake, Bo Derek once scolded, regretted, and was upset. However, he was probably the Duke who was the fastest to accept the identity of the Lady of the Lake as an elf god. The reason was very simple. First, he was The Knight of the Holy Grail is a vested interest. Secondly, he not only believes in the Fairy of the Lake, he also believes in the sea god Mannann.
If one fails, at least there is another.
The old Duke looked at the battlefield, and he tightened his grip on his Poseidon Trident.
My old friend! We have to fight side by side again, Duke Bodrick thought.
The ocean, the trident, and the unique smell of fish and sea.
For the lady, and even more for Brittany and Mannann!
The orders were conveyed like flowing water, the troops were arrayed, the artillery entered the position, the shield wall was formed, and there were also the temporarily recruited free people who were nervous and full of expectations for chess. Although the Poseidon Knight did not fight on the ocean where he was best, But still gearing up.
"Prepare artillery fire~"
"emission!"
The sound of the first artillery fire spread throughout the battlefield. Duke Bodrick closed his eyes. Such a beautiful place in Aquitaine was about to become a slaughterhouse of flesh and blood. The sound of horns continued to rise and fall, and the courageous horns and shouts of the Knight Kingdom's army Overriding the chaotic sounds of the Skaven, hundreds of slave rats made the first wave of attacks, and were then overwhelmed by bows, arrows and artillery.
The armies of both sides began to compete.
Even if they are equipped with muskets, bows and crossbowmen still prove to have their place. The proven Brittanian longbowmen and the crossbowmen group equipped with dwarf hand crossbows have given satisfactory answers, round after round. The firing caused the slave rats at the front to suffer huge casualties, and Ictor-Claw also noticed it. The chief engineer ordered the soldiers to move forward, but amidst the overwhelming "yesyes!" and "diedie!" The Cavern's triangular shield has poor coverage.
All the Skaven don't care, the slave rats are there to give away.
Duke Bodrick also noticed that the number of slave rats was particularly large, so many that they covered the entire front line and continued to advance. The old Duke secretly cursed: How many rats are there in the enemy? Then he ordered Juan's Vichy troops to press forward from the left flank.
Let's exchange those Estalians with slave rats! The only goal is to defeat the Skaven army! Boderick judged that only by letting the Skaven taste defeat can they collapse one after another.
"Theodoric, the Duke of Belion, is here! The great grandson of the Rat Man! Your grandpa is here! In the name of a lady, go back to your underground!" Duke Theodoric was the first to initiate. In order to charge, the brave and fearless Theodoric may be an old pervert, alcoholic, violent and reckless guy, but he is also a brave warrior. Theodoric holds the giant of Balduin, the first Holy Grail companion. Ax, personally charge into the formation, and be invincible wherever it goes.
"Where is your courage, descendants of Balduin?"
"We are here!"
"Don't let any rat go!"
"Yes, Your Excellency."
Theodoric's courage greatly improved the morale of the Berlion army. Behind him were dozens of knights from Berlion, two hundred knights' retinues, and the famous group of stupid pig rogues, a thousand people As soon as the battle started, the army rushed forward and started a life-and-death battle.
"Skavin~yesyes~breakbreak~Skavin~the strongest~the most powerful~"
"We have a lot of rats~a lot of rats~"
"The Horned Rat bless the Skaven, will bless the Skaven, yes, bless~"
On the other side, Ict's Skryrian army is also in high morale. Clan rats and slave rats form a sea of rats. Under the overwhelming force of rats, the Skaven are in high morale. The plague monks raise filthy cannons. The flag chants the motto of the Horned Rat, and the engineering warlocks activate the terrible war machine. With the will of the Horned Rat, the technology of Ict-Claw and the blessing of the plague, Skaven, what else is terrible? ? Don't be afraid, don't be afraid!
Duke Theodoric also knew very well that there were so many Skaven, so as soon as the war started, his target was the commander on the left wing of the Skaven, the deputy of Ict-Claw, who came from history. The engineer-warlock of Clan Curry, Barequint-Mazquik.
"There are so many cavalry, so many cavalry~" Barequint-Mazquyk's troops had thousands of clan rats and a larger number of slave rats, but in the face of Duke Theodoric's personal attack, its troops were a bit Unable to resist, the soldiers of the Berleon Piggy Rogues followed the Duke and marched forward bravely. Although they and the Duke didn't like each other and wanted to die facing each other, but at this time facing foreign enemies, the Berleans still remained. United together.
"Forward! For the sake of the lady and Berleon, and for Britannia!" The stupid pig rogues armed with shields, spears, and swords first attacked the weak points of the Skaven army. The number of the Skaven was really overwhelming. There were so many that the formation was not spread out, and a considerable number of clan rats were blocked behind, and the slave rats often collapsed at the first touch.
Theodoric, Duke of Belion, did not choose to gather the cavalry in one place, but dispersed the cavalry slightly. He personally led the charge with forty cavalry. Theodoric had only one target in his eyes, and that was this Si. The head of Cavan!
"Damn rat, get out! Your Grandpa Theodoric is here to get your rat head!"
A large row of clan rats formed a spear formation, thousands of them at a time, trying to block Theodoric's charge. The Duke shouted loudly, and he raised the artifact battle ax in his hand, which was shining with the blessing of the Lake God's prophet. The blade swept across, and more than a dozen spears broke in response. Theodoric's angry roar made the Skaven nearby feel timid: "Rat, get out!"
"Hmph! Ignorant hairless thing, ignorant!" Rats are rats. The Skaven warlord and engineering warlock Barequint has no glory at all. It sneers at the enemy's brainlessness and recklessness, as well as chivalry syndrome. , I thought to myself, I still have at least ten years to live, how could I trade with a hairless guy like you?
"Poison Wind Grenadier, Poison Wind Mortar, prepare." The engineering warlock waved, and dozens of Poison Wind Grenadier and Poison Wind Mortars from three weapons teams stepped forward, dozens of poisonous wind mortars full of plague were launched. Balls and cannonballs are fired.
Duke Theodoric had to order the army to retreat temporarily in order to avoid the poisonous gas. The Berlion army threw away more than a hundred corpses and gave up the attack in some confusion.
"Hahahaha~" The engineering warlock laughed loudly at the incompetence and fragility of human beings, regardless of the fact that it had lost at least more than 1,500 ratmen, and at least 500 ratmen were poisoned to death by its own poisonous gas.
"Bah!" Duke Theodoric spat: "Shameless people, rats are rats."
"Your Excellency, what shall we do now?" his valet shouted.
"It's okay. We have been prepared. His Majesty reminded us that the poisonous gas of the Skaven is very powerful." Duke Theodoric raised his artifact battle ax.
After the military formation, the two Lake God prophets cast spells together, and a blast of wind gathered under their control. The unclean wind blew the Skaven poisonous gas and plague directly towards the Skaven military formation.
The left wing of the ratmen suddenly collapsed. The slave rats and clan rats howled to avoid the oncoming poisonous wind, and the formation became chaotic.
"Reform! Attack again." Duke Theodoric charged again.
At this time, the engineer warlock Barequint began to realize that something was wrong. In addition to the sound of horse hooves from Duke Theodoric's team of knights, there was another team of knights rushing towards where it was.
The leader is the Holy Grail Knight of Carcassonne, Sir Amanric de Gadelon.
This old Holy Grail is a strong man in the Holy Realm. Even in southern Britannia, there are very few Holy Grail knights who are as tall, strong, mighty and full of confidence in the goddess. Carcassonne was destroyed, but he is still There is still a chance for revenge.
"Send the Stormvermin Legion and the looting team to support Balequint."
"Tristan, send out two teams of Poseidon Knights and make sure to defeat Skaven's left wing."
The two orders were issued almost simultaneously.
Bodrick and Ictor both made decisions. The confrontation between the Berlion army and the Skaven left army will be the key to this war.
