Chapter 364 War can also be a daily routine
Rand sat on a chair on the top of the city wall, watching the scene on the battlefield from the crow's perspective and his own perspective.
The gate of the castle where Rand was located slowly opened.
The drawbridge over the moat was also slowly lowered.
Behind the city gate, several knights nervously wanted to wipe the sweat off their face, but as they were about to go out, they did not dare to open their masks.
They were recently selected to become knights in magic steel plate armor.
The magic steel plate armor knight is Rand's direct guard.
They are Rand's most loyal and bravest warriors.
Thanks to the magic plate armor cut from the iron golems, sharp weapons can hardly cause any damage to them.
This made them invincible on the battlefield.
As the battle approached, the knights were still a little nervous.
They were not nervous about the upcoming fight. They were selected from experienced soldiers and were very familiar with going to the battlefield.
It's just that they are not quite used to their new identities.
What an honor it is to be Rand's personal guard.
What an honor it is to be promoted from an ordinary soldier to a knight!
The captain of the guard noticed the newcomer's nervousness and said calmly, "Don't think too much. All you have to do next is charge."
The hearts of the newly promoted magic steel plate armor knights calmed down a little.
The captain of the guards stood at the front of the team on horseback and looked around.
The knights gripped their weapons tightly.
Generally speaking, armies need to be mobilized before they set out.
We also need to shout slogans such as: "For homeland, for glory."
etc.
But these guards are not needed.
The captain of the guard only needs to tell them which direction to charge.
The city gates were completely opened.
The suspension bridge also hit the ground, making a clanging sound.
The sunlight, which was originally blocked by the city gate and drawbridge, also shone on these knights in silver-white armor.
Reflecting dazzling light.
Then came the sound of horse hooves.
The knights of Rand opened the city gates and charged at the slowed-down Knights of the Kingdom of Borun.
The first to engage the enemy are always the knights in magic steel plate armor with the best armor, followed by the White King's personal guards and the paladins.
The quality of the decelerated Borun Kingdom Knights is not bad either.
Seeing the castle gate open, they immediately organized a counterattack formation.
But I have to say that equipment like magic steel plate armor is indeed a bit shady.
When the knights set off, Rand was still tasting the warm black tea in his hand.
But soon Karin reminded with a smile: "You can actually drink tea with your nose?"
Rand put down the cup of black tea.
Indeed, it’s still a bit difficult to get used to constantly switching perspectives.
It doesn't look like there will be any problems at the moment.
Unfortunately, pretending to be an expert was not very successful.
Elsa reluctantly handed Rand a handkerchief, and Rand wiped the tea off his face and nose.
Then he looked back at the map in his hand.
"This war probably won't be over in a short time." Rand said helplessly.
Karin was about to respond when she raised her eyebrow.
Under Rand's puzzled gaze.
Karin went down from the city wall.
After a while, he came up again.
As she walked up, Karin slowly burned the blood off her hands.
The moisture in the bloodstains was evaporated, and the remaining blood stains peeled off and turned into ashes in the process of falling.
"A few thieves tried to sneak into the city and poison it," Karin explained.
In fact, the thieves had already been discovered by the garrison soldiers in the city, and Karin felt that it would be no problem if she didn't go down to help.
When Karin heard Rand's confident words, she actually believed them.
She really didn't think Rand was under a lot of pressure.
I also really feel that Rand has the confidence to win.
Because Rand does things so perfectly.
Karin discovers the secret of Rand's military prowess.
That is to be well prepared.
Before a war, Rand would personally check the baggage, weapons and equipment, food and fodder, and even the health of the horses.
Rand will make sure nothing goes wrong.
Then after entering the castle.
Karin watched Rand make countless contingency plans.
There are countless possible response strategies for the enemy's attack, and then the ones with the highest probability are selected to make practical preparations.
For example, if enemy thieves entered the city and poisoned the water supply, they would run into the defenses that Rand had prepared.
When Karin arrived, the thieves had almost been captured.
At this moment, Rand was sitting on a chair on the top of the city wall, sipping black tea, looking calm and composed. In fact, this was the result of his thorough preparations.
Therefore, Karin had great faith in Rand's calmness.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
But now it seems that Rand is still a little nervous.
It seems that she, an irrelevant Saint of the Torch Church, believes that Rand will win more than the Lord Rand.
That being said, every soldier in the city believed that Rand would win.
Because they will find that no matter what happens, their lords will be prepared.
On the city wall.
The longbowman shot a few arrows, but stopped when he realized the range was not enough.
The opposing knights and Rand's knights intertwined.
The other side planned to bypass the castle, so they didn't get too close to this side.
The range of the crossbow on the top of the city wall is just enough, but it is too far away and not easy to aim.
On the other side, the castle where Fenris was also opened the gate and released the knights.
Attack these slowed knights from both sides.
Standing on the top of the city wall, one could not see the specific situation of the fighting below, and could only hear vague shouts and screams.
There was a cloud of smoke and dust below.
Knights with different flags and costumes fought together.
Soon, the two sides were separated.
The quality of the Knights of the Kingdom of Borun was not bad. They suffered some losses in a wave of attacks, but they did not fall into chaos.
Started to retreat.
Due to Rand's order, Rand's knights did not pursue for long. They took some advantage and then stopped.
Rand's guards returned to the castle.
Blood stains and dust dotted their armor, making their originally shiny armor look a little dirty.
And there is more solemn and murderous atmosphere.
Several newly promoted knights in magic steel plate armor were very excited because they had achieved some success on the battlefield.
As for the rest, the skilled guards were used to it.
Rand's Guards always win, every time.
Unfortunately, there are too many people on the opposite side this time, and their combat skills are not bad, so it is difficult to achieve more results.
The knights dismounted to rest, and the captain of the guard went up to the city wall to report to Rand.
On the top of the city wall, Rand sat upright in a chair, staring at the map on the table.
The captain of the guard reported to Rand.
After listening to it, Rand said, "Well done. Go back and have a good rest. I don't think this war will end in a short time."
The casualties of the Knights of the Kingdom of Borun were less than one hundred.
The loss is not particularly small, but it is far from being serious.
The Kingdom of Bolen will definitely not withdraw its troops just like that. It depends on whether a large force will come forward later.
Karin also listened to the report of the captain of the guard.
A knight group of nearly a thousand people was stopped so easily.
From the grasp of timing to the choice of tactics, it was impeccable.
If there was any mistake, the effect would not be as good as it is now, after all, there are many more people on the opposite side.
The opportunity for the Knights to be slowed down by traps is also fleeting.
Karin felt that Rand's slight nervousness just now was completely unnecessary.
After a while, a messenger from below came up to the top of the city wall and said, "Some students from the church school are about to graduate and want to come here to observe and learn."
Rand raised an eyebrow.
