Section 20 Secret Weapons

The Skeleton Guards cavalry are arranged in a wedge formation. This type of breakthrough formation that uses the most elite cavalry as the top can break through the enemy's array in an instant and then slow down the enemy's impact. The cavalry in the rear can maximize the sprint of war horses and carriages. Although Baron Bank's knights are excellent knights, they are above the Skeleton Guards cavalry in terms of angles of carriages and ability to fight immediately. After all, those who have received knight training since childhood have indeed had advantages. However, the Skeleton Guards cavalry are under the strict training of Sir Liugudy, and their members are civilians who are absolutely loyal to Schwab. In order to make up for the gap with the knights, the Skeleton Guards cavalry adhere to a concept of never giving up until they achieve their goals, as well as a great sense of honor.

"Ah~~~." Two heavy cavalry units on the plains collided fiercely. Their rifles ruthlessly penetrated the opponent's body, knocking the knight in heavy armor off the horse, and the war horse was driven to attack.

"It's almost a draw in the charge." Schwab kept his calm mind and observed the battle between the Skeleton Guards Cavalry and Baron Bank Knights. Sir Liugudi left behind several cavalry with the best martial arts next to him. The plate armor on the Skeleton Guards Cavalry can basically eliminate the impact of the knights' carriage, but after all, it is not as heavy equipment as the Knights with the plate armor inside. Several weak parts such as the throats of the Skeleton Guards Cavalry were stabbed and they were no longer saved. However, the Skeleton Guards Cavalry were still holding the carriage before their death, and stabbing them hard and also hit the knights.

"But we must have an advantage in melee combat." The Skeleton Guard Cavalry beside him said to Schwab. Because of the lack of armor on his body, the Skeleton Guard Cavalry were much more flexible than the Knights. The Skeleton Guard Cavalry, who had a slight downturn in the sprint, had the upper hand in melee combat.

"Kill~~~." The huge masked knight raised his giant sword and chopped off a skeleton guard cavalry. He didn't expect that it seemed like a cavalry team composed of civilians, but it was so powerful and almost a life-threatening way. He saw a cavalry jumping from his horse towards the knight. Two people who fell off the horse, the man in heavy armor rolled on the grass like a gangster fighting. The cavalry opened the knight's helmet without any grace, and used his fingernails to pick the knight's eyes, and the other party screamed.

"Damn." A knight had limited vision from the gap in his helmet, and there were enemies around him, but he could not aim at his opponent. He could only wave his sword, but was accidentally stabbed by a skeleton guard cavalry with a short sword to the gap in the armour at his waist.

No one noticed that this battle between knights and heavy cavalry would affect the development of later cavalry. The ancient noble knight wearing chain armor and plate armor-type armored armor and civilian cavalry who were born in civilians wearing plate armor and high helmets were tied. This allowed the later nobles to find a pattern of hope to develop knights, but due to financial limitations, they had to change the number of knights. In the past, people believed that knights with noble blood were invincible, but now, as long as they had the same excellent equipment and were trained, they could develop an excellent cavalry, which cost far less than the training of knights.

Baron Bank's attempt was blocked by Schwab's cavalry, but at the sunset, he had to retreat helplessly. The remaining troops of the attacked Nobles, cursing Schwab, cursing Baron Bank to retreat to the solid manor.

"What the hell are you doing? Why are you attacking us?" In Fort Oshevido, Baron Bank, sitting on a wooden chair in the hall, was tasting brandy from Mark, and in the hall several Stedetin nobles were angrily scolding Baron Bank's treason.

"By the way, this brandy from Mark is really good." Baron Bank shook his thick chin and said to the tall knight who was guarding him.

"Yes, Lord Baron."

"Hey, Baron Bank, what are you doing? While drinking the wine made by the enemy, he despised us." The Steding nobles, who were angry with Baron Bank, had already put their hands on the sword at their waists, and their entourage also took out their weapons.

"Hmph, for me, you are just like this glass of wine, and you are ready to be destroyed by me." Baron Bank no longer looked amiable. After drinking the brandy, he said to the nobles that since the nobles had discovered their intentions, there was nothing to hide. Besides, when the nobles were wiped out, the Bank family, which was based on Fort Oshevedo, was the most powerful local armed forces.

"So you're trying to do this, let's see if I won't cut off your head." The nobles angrily pulled out their swords and stabbed Baron Bank, but Baron Bank's mouth showed a cruel smile.

"Ah~~~." The human screams sounded from Fort Oshevedo, but it quickly calmed down. Baron Bank waved his hand and wiped the blood beads that splashed on his clothes.

"If you killed all those people at that time, there wouldn't be so many things." Baron Bank complained to the tall masked rider.

"I'm very sorry, Baron, I didn't expect Schwab to deal with the nobles' armed forces so quickly." The masked knight wiped the sword on the corpse beside him with apologies, and then put it into the scabbard. The armor on his body had turned red, soaked in the blood of the corpse in the room. He alone removed the nobles and their entourage in the room. The sharp giant sword made people shudder.

"But it doesn't matter. As long as there is Oshevido Castle, no one can do anything to me, burn the surrounding villages, so that they can't get any supplies. I don't believe that they can grow wings and fly in. They will leave soon." Baron Bank believed that Schwab would be helpless in this sturdy castle. After all, it was a castle that even the Novaids and the Oriental nomads could conquer it. There was no problem staying in this sturdy castle for ten or eight years.

At this time, in the border Muzhai, Schwab was also holding a meeting with his officers. A tent was set up on the open space in the Muzhai. Among the tent were soldiers injured in the battle. Physicians trained in white linen clothes were carefully cleaning their wounds. The scientifically-based medical methods reduced the casualty rate.

"Master Earl, although the killing of the Stedetin nobles is strange, they will definitely retreat to the solid Oshevedo Castle after being frustrated. It is a very strong castle that we cannot conquer in a short time." Srick said to Schwab.

"Borg Oshevedo?" Schwab thought to himself that this castle that should have belonged to him had become his own obstacle at this time, but if the Steding nobles thought that this castle could stop him, it would be wrong, and the killer weapon he had always had not yet been released.

"The team led by Baron Dick, Sir York and others is almost here. After siege of Fort Oshevido, I don't believe I can't catch it," said Sir Coro.

"But it is a castle with a history of hundreds of years, and it cannot be captured by ordinary methods." Sir Liugudi was very calm. He looked at Schwab and said.

"It's okay, I have sent weapons from Mark's workshop." Schwab revealed his secret weapon to the generals present for the first time. His words indeed attracted the attention of Sir Korrow and others, but Srick looked like he was not curious.

"It's true that thing is going to be used." Srick discovered in Mark's blacksmith's workshop very early. The huge thing that the craftsmen had slaughtered was not known for what it was for. Now that Schwab said this, he realized that it was a weapon for siege. He was a little expectant in his heart, which was a weapon to destroy a castle with a history of hundreds of years.

"It's better to let our craftsmen follow the army to make some siege ladders." People who had never seen that weapon were talking about how to make some siege weapons. In this era, the usual siege weapons were nothing more than siege ladders, stone throwers and other siege tools that used primitive physical functions, but what they didn't know was that Schwab would use weapons that transcend the times.

"What should we do with those captive nobles?" Sir Coro asked suddenly.

"Let's keep it in the first place." During the Battle of the Little Plains, some of the Steding nobles were captured, and they were imprisoned in the Muzhai together with their entourage. Schwab wanted to kill all the nobles who fought against him, but reason told him that in this society where the nobles were still in power, this would only make him face more enemies, unless Schwab was preparing to go to war with the entire society.

Three days later, reinforcements from Mark arrived. Sir York led his archers and infantry to the wooden village, and at the same time, Schwab had been waiting for a long time. Looking at the heavy guy who was pulled in by a carriage, the soldiers were curiously inquiring about the things transported from thousands of miles away. With this weapon, the blacksmiths in Mark's territory, they came to ensure the operation of the weapon.

"Sir Earl, I heard you beat those rebels to the water." Sir York was still in that carefree look. He smiled generously and threw his helmet to his entourage, and then walked into Schwab's tent.

"Welcome, my friends." Schwab said with a smile.

"It's time for us to have a big fight, tell me, Lord Earl, let's cut off whose head." Sir York sat on the wooden bench, picked up a wine glass of unknown who it was, and drank the wine inside.

"At present, we are going to sweep away the villages around the enemy, and if anyone dares to fight, they will be wiped out. But I heard that the nobles of Oshevido Castle burned the villages around them and all shrank into the castle and could not come out. Therefore, our main goal is to remove the other nobles one by one, unless they are loyal to the Count." Sir Koro pointed to the map on the wooden table, and the map provided by the merchants was very

To be detailed, since the end of the Battle of Little Plains, the power of the Stedetin nobles has been greatly reduced, but in the entire Stedetin County, there are more than 200 manors of all sizes. The nobles formed a counter-Shwab power with these manors. Now, before Schwab captured the Oshvedo Fort, he was to recapture these idle forces and recover the land and nobles around the Oshvedo Fort and the nobles, which was the largest fortress of the opposition force.
