In the wilderness, a team of knights was galloping northward.
Jennifer was at the back of the team, and her status was not high, mainly because she did not provide enough knights and cavalry.
As a baron, she had only 10 knights and more than 70 cavalry. She was young and did not have much foundation, and could not accumulate knights and cavalry.
When leaving Fabro City, many knights secretly left the team. They did not want to go far away to fight for a king they had never seen.
Jennifer did not take any coercive or retaliatory measures against those knights who escaped. Those knights had their own ideas and their own families, and she could not force them.
Jennifer's team was the cavalry of Viscount Savan of Fabro City, who was also part of Count Barron's cavalry. At the front of the cavalry was Marquis Aideen of Orb Province.
No matter where these nobles' fiefs were before, they were now homeless wandering knights. The royal family declared war on the Alchemy Council, and they had to abandon everything according to the vassal contract and go to the northern capital to fight for King Lothair XI.
In the huge cavalry team, each knight had two or three war horses, which carried their supplies for the trip.
The families of the nobles and knights also followed behind on horses. If only the knights were advancing, the galloping of thousands of horses would still be impressive. The carriages with families crowded together and the chaotic formations behind proved that this was a group of knights fleeing.
In the desolate wilderness, it takes a long time to find water, and many people have become weak due to lack of water.
"Not good! A large number of airships appeared in the distance!"
Hearing the shouts of other knights, Jennifer hurriedly turned her head and looked at the sky in the east. There is the territory of the Alchemy Council, where humans live.
As a belligerent party, the Alchemy Council will certainly not allow such a cavalry regiment to return to the command of Lothair XI, a marquis cavalry regiment, with very strong combat power.
This Marquis Cavalry Regiment is the farthest from the royal family. The Orb Province is located in the southernmost part of the kingdom, bordering the Carolingian Kingdom. The marching route of the Marquis of Edern Cavalry Regiment is the longest, and therefore the most dangerous. The Alchemy Council has assembled a huge force to launch an attack here.
Military orders came one after another, the Cavalry Regiment took up a defensive formation, the Cavalry Regiment turned east, the family team went west, and the family team left the Cavalry Regiment and temporarily took refuge in the wilderness.
Jennifer looked at the family team behind her. She wondered how her mother was doing in the team. The family team had poor discipline. She wondered if her fresh water had been stolen. There had been several fights in the family team before.
Hoping that everything was fine with her mother, Jennifer led her cavalry and changed positions according to the flags in front. After reaching the position, she stopped her horse and waited for the attack order.
This Marquis Cavalry Corps had more than 4,000 cavalrymen and cavalrymen. The leader, Marquis Aideen, was a level 5 knight.
Marquis Aideen's strength was relatively low. As a marquis, he was only a level 5 knight. The Carolingian Kingdom has been in peace for a long time, and Marquis Adeen has not had many opportunities to encounter life-and-death battles. It was only after he organized several raids against wild werewolves that he was promoted to a level 5 knight in the battle with the werewolves.
A level 5 knight is not bad, and can burst out the combat power of a level 6 apostle in battle. There are so many airships not far away, densely packed, and roughly speaking there are at least 80 of them. In the next battle, Jennifer hopes that Marquis Adeen can be promoted, so that the strength of the Marquis Cavalry Corps will be even stronger.
After thinking about it, Jennifer didn't want to encounter that kind of situation. If Marquis Aideen is promoted, this knight group doesn't know how many knights and cavalrymen will die from the absorption of the guard chain.
When the alchemical airship approaches the knight group, the altitude is getting higher and higher.
The rise of the airship will affect the shooting accuracy of their alchemical weapons, but the huge formation of 80 airships does not need shooting accuracy at all, just rounds of alchemical weapons are enough.
Multi-barreled alchemical rockets can launch 16 rockets at a time. There are more than 30 artillery on the side of the airship, which can fire 3 shells in a short time. There are also several machine guns on the airship. These firepower can instantly turn the ground into a sea of fire.
Especially since the rockets among these weapons are high-level alchemical weapons such as aluminum thermite and thermobaric bombs, the coverage area of a rocket is very amazing.
After rising to a height of several hundred meters, the airship army of the Constitutional Army began to prepare for shooting.
Marquis Aideen did not use the guard chain to connect to his three earls at the first time. At this time, more knights were needed to throw spears and reduce the number of enemy airships as quickly as possible.
Among the three earls, Earl Barron is a level 5 knight, and the remaining two earls are only level 4 knights.
Without the baptism of war, the Carolingian Kingdom's knights are generally of low level, but these knights should not be underestimated. They can easily find opportunities for promotion in battle after battle.
Compared with the slightly weaker knight teams, the alchemical airships have reinforced magic circles, and those flagship-type airships have 7-level alchemical reinforced magic circles.
The three earls all looked serious. In this battle, whether it was Marquis Aideen or the three earls, they must be promoted to resist the interception of the constitutional army.
More than 4,000 knights and cavalry, even if only half of them are left in the end, must be promoted and must survive.
The guard chain shot out from behind Count Barron, accurately hitting the four viscounts behind him, including Viscount Savan of Fabro.
Sawan's expression tightened, and the guard chain behind him also shot out, connecting to the baron behind him.
Jennifer was in pain. No one would like the feeling of being extracted, but there was no way. In order to fight against the huge airship army, someone must dedicate and someone must sacrifice.
The counterattack of ordinary knights has no effect on those high-level alchemy reinforcement arrays. Alchemists can use standard weapons to suppress on the battlefield, which is the foundation of the alchemist's strong strength.
Such a huge cavalry corps, in the end there were only 4 people, the Marquis and three earls launched a counterattack, four knight javelins flew high into the sky, flying towards the front 4 airships.
In sharp contrast to the four javelins, all the weapons on more than 80 airships fired at the same time, high-level alchemy weapons disturbed the Marquis and earls, low-level alchemy weapons were used against the knights, as for the cavalry, they only needed the residual power of the artillery fire to blow them to death.
The sky was full of flames, which were the tail flames left by the rockets when they flew.
The sky was filled with continuous thunderous artillery sounds, which were the roaring sounds of artillery.
The sky was full of terrifying black lines, which were large-caliber bullets fired by machine guns.
Faced with this overwhelming attack, Jennifer was in great pain. If she had been braver and followed Rudolph to the Saragu Sea, would things be different now?
The last time I saw Ivonna, she had become a level 5 werewolf. If she was also a level 5 knight, would she no longer be afraid of these terrifying artillery fire?
