A heartwarming daily life farming novel, occasionally also a passionate epic.
Spears spread across the wilderness like a thriving forest. Glorious knights march in formation, and countless bl...
On the desert plains, iron-gray scales were connected into one piece. These falcon knights waved their shining swords, carrying smoke and vibrations, and rushed towards the army of Clancy at an increasingly faster speed.
The horses of the Falcon Kingdom are mostly gray-brown. Although they are not as tall and agile as the horses of the West Wind, they are more suitable for the living environment and can run fast even in lands covered with deserts.
"Set up your guns, and form dense, layered formations!"
Facing the oncoming enemy, urgent orders were also heard from the army of Clancy's side. As the horns and flags changed, the soldiers in the front row put down their spears and placed them on their shields. The dense spear tips were stacked layer by layer like hedgehogs.
For this battle, Clancy gathered approximately 120,000 men, while Falcon had 200,000, including 150,000 cavalry and 50,000 infantry. The cavalry outnumbered the infantry, a rare occurrence. This was due to the lifestyle of the Falcon residents. Horses were an essential means of transportation in the desert, and every household had one, which contributed to the large number of cavalry.

Roger was one of the Falcon Cavalrymen on horseback. He put his feet on the stirrups, raised his body slightly, and his body rose and fell violently as the horse galloped. The scenery in his field of vision was rapidly receding as he rode forward at high speed. The oncoming strong wind mixed with dust hit his face, dissipating the heat from his body and taking away the few beads of sweat on his forehead.
As he got closer to the enemy formation, the sharp spear tips and stacked spear shafts became clearer and clearer in his field of vision. If it were normal times, as an experienced rider, he would definitely not charge into the spear formation so recklessly.
But it is the duty of a soldier to obey orders. Although the Falcon Country is poor, it has always valued honor and righteousness. Since I am in the army, I must fulfill my duties even if there is a hell of blades ahead.
He also understood his general's idea, which was to sacrifice part of the cavalry in front to break up the enemy's formation, and then he could infiltrate and encircle the enemy at will, relying on the dual advantages of his own numbers and mobility to encircle and kill.
I was just a little unlucky and happened to be in the queue to carry out this mission.
But even so, he would still obey orders.
In harsh environments, only unity and obedience can help people survive various disasters. This is the custom and spirit passed down from generation to generation by falcons.
"kill!"
When the Falcon Cavalry approached the spear formation, the galloping cavalrymen shouted with all their might, clenched their warm swords in trembling hands, and swung them heavily in the air.
Pale arcs flashed in the air, cutting off part of the spear tips, but immediately afterwards, this group of arranged cavalrymen and their horses crashed directly into the spear array.
If you look down from the sky, you can see the withered and yellow earth. The people below are as small as ants. The soldiers on the Clansian side are arranged in a huge hollow square, and the Falcon cavalry is like an iron-gray river, charging towards this large square.
Facing the Falcon's highly mobile cavalry, Clancy knew that the traditional linear formation would most likely be outflanked by the enemy, so they directly formed a huge hedgehog-like square formation. As long as the line was not broken, they would not fail.
Seeing the other side's intention, General Falcon simply gave orders, sending cavalry to charge directly at one side in an effort to break through the blockade of the front.
When this group of Falcon Cavalry charged, gusts of yellow sand were mixed in with the charging cavalry, hitting the defending Clansian soldiers like iron sand, falling on their faces and eyes, causing a stinging sensation, and sometimes forcing them to close their eyes.
Taking advantage of this brief gap, many cavalrymen in the war sequence directly wielded their swords and infused their whole bodies with magic power, slashing down with all their might. A wide arc of the sword flashed, directly cutting off the spear in front of them, clearing the way for the team behind them.
The horses and people collided directly with the spear tips, their bones shattered and blood splattered. Under the huge inertia, their bodies were thrown high into the air and fell into the spear array behind them, and were pierced by the spears pointing to the sky.
The battle was a fierce struggle for life from the very beginning.
Although the Falcon side suffered casualties at a very fast rate, the dense spear array began to be breached by this fearless torrent of armored soldiers. With such a rapid exchange, even if the rear army was turned around to fill the gaps, it would be too late.

Roland Hill, dressed in a black coat with silver trim, rode on his horse, his mind heavy as he watched the brutal and turbulent battlefield unfold before him. Compared to the other nations of the Frost Alliance, the soldiers of the Falcon Kingdom were the most resilient and fierce.
Although their daily lives are hard, it is precisely this harsh and changeable geographical environment that allows them to maintain the glory and perseverance of the West Wind.
A respectable enemy, but standing on the opposite side of our side.
Loran Hill paused her sigh in her heart. Facing the gradually unfavorable situation of the battle, she raised her right hand, and one by one the knights in silver-white armor stepped out.
The knights' full-coverage helmets were decorated with a pair of long feather wings, which reflected bursts of silver light in the sunlight, and the cross spears they held in their hands emitted cold magical fluctuations under the sunlight.
"Iron Sun, form a formation!"
The Knight Commander Kanda shouted loudly, and the three hundred high-ranking elite knights formed a triangular spearhead. Then, after receiving the order, the spear array in front suddenly dispersed to both sides, revealing a wide road.
“Attack!”
At the command, these knights sped across the land like scorching wind and flames. In mere seconds, like galloping chariots, they collided head-on with the enemy cavalry.
Instantly, men and horses were thrown to the ground, white flames and gray iron intertwined, swords and lances collided, sparks and sharp friction sounds rang out, and one by one, the Falcon cavalrymen were directly thrown backwards and tumbled to the sides. The center of the Falcon cavalry also paused, and its speed dropped sharply.
