Chapter 111: Backstabbing

Chapter 110 – Stabbing in the Back
Owen’s mouth opened a little wide, the cold wind poured in did not wake him up, because it was too shocking, for a moment to come back to his senses, full of five legs wobbling.

“It’s really a long time to see.” Hands holding a double-sided mirror, constantly zoomed back in, Owen marveled, there is a kind of feeling of watching the rainbow pony book, but I have to say it’s quite exciting, this is a five-legged centaur, the upper body is still female, it must be recorded.

However, Amelia casually a demon egg actually created such a monster, it seems to re-evaluate the transcendent power of this world.

In fact, Owen thought too much, although the devil’s egg is not a popular product, but not everyone can have, even if there is, not anyone who eats it can get this level of power, most people will instantly become only instinctive monsters, and is not strong enough, at most the knight level, can not do a chase three hundred people to fight.

So Bella is just a special case, because her beloved thing is a rare steed, and this steed can also restrain the instinct of fear is willing to merge with her, which created a monster, the general public can not have this condition.

Then Owen turned his attention to Howard, who was directing the cavalry into formation, and had to learn the hard way.

A lot of people thought that cavalry was just a flat wave, which wasn’t actually true.

Cavalry was the longest trained type of soldier, even the bow soldiers couldn’t compare to them, because in addition to combat skills, they had to learn to work together.

When the cavalry began to charge is not to say stop can stop, but where there is a person fell on the horse, the back can be killed or wounded, so the cavalry formation is very delicate, to be loose but not scattered, each other to maintain a certain distance, but also to keep the formation is not chaotic.

Generally common is the wave formation, is a row after row of cavalry charge, before and after to maintain the distance, so that even if the front of the cavalry fell, but also have the time to react to dodge.

But the formation can not be too loose, cavalry if there is not enough density, the impact of the cohesion does not come out, so it is easy to fall into the enemy formation can not get out, so the cavalry is very concerned about the formation and cooperation.

The cavalry of the territory is more complicated, because there are many kinds, but Howard commanded it with ease.

He placed the breastplate wizards at the front, with the two knights as arrows, their only purpose was to charge, to disrupt the enemy’s formation.

Next were the two flanks consisting of bow cavalry and gun cavalry, who were responsible for roaming on both sides, with the bow cavalry responsible for killing and the gun cavalry intercepting the enemy.

Interestingly, Howard did not lead the charge, but chose to bring ten gun cavalry to sit at the rear, in case of any situation can also make timely compensation, visible old-fashioned place.

More than a hundred cavalry were arranged by Howard in a clear way, Owen looked at it with a sigh.

If you ask him to say, he can also say it, but when the breastplate cavalry charge, where to charge, what to do next, when the two flanks close in and how far to keep the distance, he is a question, and this is the key to the war.

Breastplate cavalry charge ability is strong, but must maintain a straight line, and physical exertion, can not be repeated charge, even if repeated charge, turn around and accelerate also need time, and how much time is needed, how to make up for this gap, all need to commanders to grasp.

Not to mention that the two flanks of the light cavalry is like using both hands to close the sand, need to be more detailed command to play a role, and a little carelessness will be casualties, and even reveal the cracks lead to the failure of the siege.

Howard has a wealth of experience in basic command, give him thousands of horses may not be able to play, can only be moderate to come, but three to five hundred people of small team fighting is his strong point, can play with flowers.

As expected, Howard’s timing is very accurate, a group of horse thieves just gathered, trying to launch a counterattack on the demon centaurs, but was diagonally rushed over the chest armor wizards killed. That’s not all, not waiting for them to react, arrows fell like rain on both sides, more than a dozen horse thieves were hit by arrows and fell off their horses, and they were suddenly in a mess.

Want to run no place to run, can only be gathered into a group into chaos, and so the chest armor soldiers turn the direction of accelerated charge again, this group of horse thieves have been doomed to the end.

More skillfully, Howard did not target all the horse thieves, but only selected the group with the largest number of people, so that the remaining horse thieves could continue to pester the demon centaur.

When he ate this group of horse thieves, the rest could not hold on any longer, so he could take over to deal with the demon centaur. It could be said that Howard’s mastery of the battlefield was still above Owen, who possessed the God’s perspective.

An owl hovering over the battlefield, a double-sided mirror in front of his chest allows Owen to control the whole situation as if it were a God’s perspective, but he still marveled at Howard’s command ability, which is definitely a talent.

There is no way, Howard in the grassroots a dry so many years, can say that every step of every link are familiar with can not be familiar, plus no background no connections, dirty work and tired work to send a life is all his, if there are not a few skills, I do not know where to die long ago.

However, Owen’s attention has always been partially on the demon centaurs, after all, compared to a talent, the five-legged demon centaurs are truly a rare breed.

Soon the horse thieves were either killed or captured, leaving only the three Buddies, the demon centaurs, and the Howard Cavalry.

Buddy secretly screamed, how could he have not thought that a single step would land him in this situation, and thus did not notice that Harvey’s expression was a bit off, until his kidneys were penetrated.

“Sorry, I don’t want to die along with you.” Harvey quickly drew out the dagger that pierced one side of the boss’s waist, and immediately stepped back the moment the blood spurted out, not getting a single drop of blood on him, and at the same time avoiding being taken away by the other party’s dying counterattack.

Although the tone used was apologetic, sincerity could not be seen at all, as Harvey did not forget to fling out a dagger to shoot Scarface, who was about to struggle to get up, as he backed up to Scarface’s side.

There was no change in his expression during the entire process, and his hand didn’t waver for a second, perfectly demonstrating what it meant to be ruthless.

“Hiding deep enough, after all this time, I didn’t even know that you were still an assassin.” Buddy forced himself to endure the severe pain and said, at this moment he knew that he had lost, but to fall in an ugly and cowardly appearance was not in line with his identity, so he stood up straight with force and took the poison that he had hidden close to him, and suddenly his body stiffened and became lifelike.

This poison can maximize the integrity of the body, and slow down the speed of decay, there are nobles the last decent of the name.

“I surrender!” Harvey dropped his dagger and walked in Howard’s direction with his hands raised.

Howard, who had just witnessed a betrayal, acted as if he hadn’t seen it and had him tied up and escorted back to the territory.

A betrayer had no value as a captive, but a betrayer who was able to gather three hundred horse thieves should be of interest to the lord lord, the big deal was to hang him himself afterwards.
