Bob Wen, who was directing operations from the rear, could no longer remain calm.

Those were Templar Knights!

Back then, I led only eighty Templar Knights and five hundred cavalrymen to defeat Saladin's tens of thousands of elite heavy cavalry!

How could they be so easily defeated in a direct confrontation?

Could it be that the Templar Knights I brought with me are a fake force?

Bob Wyn did have his doubts about this matter.

The requirements for becoming a qualified Templar Knight are extremely stringent.

They are basically trained from a young age, and almost every Templar Knight is a warrior among warriors, an elite among elites.

(Compared to them!)

Meanwhile, the Knights Templar lived a celibate, communal life, spending their days in prayer and endless military training and group exercises. They strictly adhered to the rules and discipline, and therefore did not exhibit the dissolute or undisciplined behavior of secular knights.

As a result, the number of Knights Templar was not large, with only over 20,000 members at its peak, and they were distributed throughout various parts of Europe.

The system instantly conjured up 50,000 Templar Knights.

Bob Win's first reaction was bewilderment!

Because he never expected that he would have such a large and elite force under his command.

To dispel his doubts, Bobwin once used a military parade as a pretext to investigate these Templar Knights.

The result was that every Templar Knight randomly selected for inspection possessed astonishing combat prowess and strict discipline!

It doesn't look like a fake!

but.

Right now.

Bob Winn, however, was forced to have doubts again.

Could it be that his subordinates secretly put on a show for him?

Were all the Templar Knights who were randomly selected for inspection pre-arranged?

The other Templar Knights were all put into the Templar Order by nobles through back channels to gain military merit.

Bob Win was dumbfounded, and Rijler was dumbfounded too!

"Is this a joke?" he thought to himself. "Are the cavalry of Great Xia demons from hell?"

How could his own subordinates be so easily defeated?

The terrifying self-healing ability of the Tang Dynasty's Xuanjia heavy cavalry further confirmed Rigeler's idea.

"These people are not human; they are demons! Satan's demon cavalry!"

What they didn't know was that this was Xiang Yu's third special skill: Overlord.

Skill effect: After annihilating an enemy unit, your troops will immediately be freed from all negative effects (including injuries, plague, disease, bleeding, etc.) and will have their attack and defense increased by 20% for a certain period of time (stackable).

As long as you don't die immediately, you'll be fully recovered after eliminating an enemy unit!

certainly.

Before the vanguard of three thousand Templar Knights was completely wiped out, more than sixty Tang Dynasty Xuanjia Heavy Cavalrymen still died on the battlefield.

However, a casualty ratio of 60 to 3,000 is already incredibly high.

Such a battle situation brought joy to some and sorrow to others within the Crusaders.

Who would be happy?

Of course, it's the Knights Hospitaller!

Because Baldwin IV had leprosy as a child, he was unable to govern the country throughout his life, and the court was in turmoil. The struggle between the pony, the knights, and the court faction dominated the country.

Among them, the most intense fighting was between military factions such as the Knights Templar and the Knights Hospitaller.

They fought and schemed against each other, putting the country in a dangerous situation.

These two factions are sworn enemies.

Many times, they would draw their swords against each other in front of Bob Wynne, as if they wouldn't rest until they had killed him.

However, Baldwin IV was powerless to do anything about it.

It wasn't that Bob Wyn lacked the ability, but rather that his body wouldn't allow it.

Leprosy was an incurable disease in medieval Europe.

At the same time, they also believed that leprosy was a punishment sent by God to the unclean.

So here's the question.

The West, which reveres the divine right of kings, encountered a king who was punished by God.

Isn't this a contradiction?

Does this mean that the King of Jerusalem did something so heinous that even God couldn't stand it?

Therefore, although Bob Wyn was capable, his subordinates were very dissatisfied with him!

If it weren't for the fact that the Leper King led his troops to create one military miracle after another in his early years, he would probably have been overthrown long ago.

At this moment, seeing the Templar Knights suffer a crushing defeat, the Grand Master of the Hospitallers started causing trouble.

He rode forward, a strange smile on his face, and said, “Your Majesty, I’ve said it before: the Knights Templar are a bunch of rabble. You should have disbanded them long ago and given our Hospitallers the support they deserve.”

Upon hearing this, Bob Wynne, hidden behind his mask, began to breathe rapidly.

That's infuriating.

Is it necessary for internal strife to escalate to the battlefield?

No matter how much the Knights Hospitallers dislike the Knights Templar, they have to fight them back home.

This is a war, your teammates lost, and you're here making sarcastic remarks?

But for a moment, Bob Wynne didn't know how to answer.

Upon seeing this, Regent Raymond stepped forward with displeasure. "Sir, watch your words!" he said. "According to Emperor Chuz and others, this vanguard of the enemy army has a glorious record of annihilating a force of 100,000 Doths with only a few thousand men."

Their general, Xiang Yu, was also a force to be reckoned with.

Your Majesty, we should not engage in chivalry with such an elite cavalry force.

us..."

Raymond also suggested that more Templar Knights should be sent to annihilate them with overwhelming numbers!

Before he could finish speaking, Roger interrupted him, "Raymond, aren't you ashamed to say that?" He said, "Hmph, do you think we should send out our entire main force for such a small Xia cavalry force?"

snort!

"Your Majesty, please allow me to dispatch three thousand Knights of the Hospitaller to annihilate them in one fell swoop!"

Bob Wyn turned his head meaningfully and looked at Roger.

Having already suffered a major defeat, sending another three thousand men would only result in them being wiped out.

The morale of the Crusaders is likely to plummet!

Therefore, the ever-calm Bobwin spoke up, "Sir Roger, go and support the Templars! But be sure to send at least ten thousand knights; do not underestimate them!"

“Ten thousand men?” Roger sneered. “Your Majesty, we don’t need that!”

Bob Wyn raised his right hand slightly. "This is an order!" he said softly, but his tone was firm and left no room for Roger to object.

Roger frowned, looking displeased. "Yes, sir!"

After Roger personally led his knights to provide support with murderous intent, Bob Wyn waved again, signaling Raymond to step forward.

"Sir Raymond, have your men lead thirty thousand cavalry to follow Sir Roger," he said. "If the Knights Hospitaller are defeated, go to their aid immediately!"

At the same time, closely monitor the movements of the other armies of the Regent of Great Xia.

Raymond bowed to him and said, "Yes, sir!"

After issuing the order, Bob Win's breathing grew heavier. "Great Xia... Lin Mo... Xiang Yu!" he murmured to himself, "You are even more difficult to deal with than Saladin!"
