Lord: Marry the villain's daughter at the beginning?

Just as Burken was picking his teeth, the scout suddenly said, "Boss, it's bad, another group of people appeared from the other direction!"

Burken put away the ribs he had used to pick his teeth and asked, "Another professional leading the team?"

"That's right, boss. And this professional seems to be even weaker. And they are using carriages to pull the army."

Burken was not stupid. He made some guesses in his mind, then stood up and said to the soldiers around him, "Get on the horses, quick!"

Not only did the two teams attack in a pincer attack, but they were also fully armed. Even if Burken was arrogant, he could realize that they were not well-intentioned.

And although there was no concept of a pincer attack, Burken knew that there must be one team responsible for separating the demons and the refugees, and another team responsible for the main attack. Under the double-sided attack, the demon soldiers would be in a situation where they could neither fight nor retreat.

Of course, all of this is based on the fact that both sides are evenly matched in strength. The arrogance left in Burken's heart always made him feel that human soldiers were as fragile as thin paper and would break at the slightest touch. So even though he was on his horse, Burken did not immediately go to defend the area where the refugees were located, but instead prepared to directly confront the opponent's main attack force.

This would deal the greatest blow to human confidence. Burken's greatest joy during the war was to look at the despair and terror on human faces and to listen to the wails of humans when they surrendered.

Moreover, this was the first human troop that dared to fight Burken since he entered the Broken Snow Territory. He had not enjoyed the feeling of killing for a long time, and now, his desire to kill was rising.

Even if we take a step back and say that this group of human soldiers really won by some despicable means, as long as one demon soldier escapes, it will be a disaster for these humans, and the territory that took action will have to prepare to face the wrath of the Demon King.

Burken's team was composed entirely of cavalrymen. How could a group of infantrymen possibly catch a group of cavalrymen? You have to know that horses are the mainstream in this world.

Therefore, Burken's arrogance was completely justified. This arrogance even made Burken gradually lazy to think, and he directly gave the order to take the initiative to engage in battle and start charging from a distance.

When Lowry saw Burken rushing towards him from a distance, he was completely stunned.

Did the enemy not intend to conserve the strength of their warhorses? They actually started charging from such a long distance.

This is completely different from the demons who advanced and retreated in moderation that Lowry saw on the front line.

For a moment, the experienced Lowry even suspected that the other party was cheating!

There was nothing that could be done about it. Lowry had no idea that the demons that had taken over the territories outside of Duanxue Territory were corrupting at an unimaginable speed, and Burken was the slowest to corrupt among them.

But before he could think, Lowry immediately gave the order: "Get out of the car, everyone get out and prepare to fight!"

Soon, the soldiers on the carriages got off in an orderly manner to meet the enemy, and quickly formed a battle formation. They took out grenades using movements that had been trained countless times and had become muscle memory, ready to give a big blow to these mindless demons at any time.

Burken, who was not far away, was not blind. He noticed something was wrong from the orderly formation of these humans and immediately began to command the tactics that were most useful to humans.

That is to use blood magic to pull.

Most of the demon bloodline magic is a long-range attack, and very few are functional. Although these bloodline magics, which are only equivalent to low-level spells, have a long range, the actual effective killing distance is about seventy meters, which is similar to a bow and arrow.

In terms of the maximum distance, the bow and arrow may be longer, but bloodline magic is not only used by demons but also by everyone. It does not require a lot of practice like mounted archery, and it also relies heavily on the physical fitness of the cavalry.

Quantitative change leads to qualitative change. The overwhelming blood magic is no less lethal than bows and arrows, and the visual effect is even more exaggerated. This is one of the reasons why the demons can win victory after victory on the border.

However, Burken's team only had twenty people. Although they were all cavalry, many of them had reconnaissance-type bloodline magic.

And once I came into contact with Burken, I realized that the opponent's equipment was too exaggerated.

You have to know that when they were on the border, most of the human soldiers didn't even have armor, they only had so-called cotton armor that couldn't really be called armor, and even most of their weapons were pitchforks. Their equipment was similar to the civilians that Burken usually slaughtered, so the blood magic would cause real damage to the opponent.

But now, Burken was facing a group of human soldiers wearing enchanted chain mail. The wind blade fireballs from a distance had no effect on the enemy's armor. Moreover, these soldiers were not afraid of the fancy blood magic of the demons at all. Not to mention that the battle formation was disrupted, they didn't even retreat a step.

A sense of fear suddenly arose in Burken's heart. His arrogance made him not plan to retreat, but his long combat experience immediately gave him a new idea. Since he couldn't break the defense from a long distance, he might as well get closer.

Bloodline magic, like ordinary magic, will lose power with distance. At about 20 to 30 meters, bloodline magic can exert its full power. Even if the opponent's chain mail is enchanted, it is not plate armor after all, and bloodline magic may still cause some damage.

The demons were all cavalrymen, so even if they were 20 or 30 meters away, Burken believed that he could easily defeat them with his mobility.

So Burken ordered the soldiers around him to stop casting spells immediately and continue charging.

The maximum effective throwing distance of a grenade is about forty to fifty meters, but Lowry was not in a hurry. He knew very well that the enemy was cavalry, and the soldiers on his side had almost no mobility, so it would be difficult to hold the enemy back.

Even if all the enemies escaped, the knights of the Lars family would be responsible for the pursuit, but Laurie was unwilling to give up. He could not swallow the defeat in the border war unless he defeated these demons head-on once.

At fifty meters, Lowry clenched his fists but gave no orders, and none of the soldiers present took the lead in throwing grenades out of nervousness.

Such qualities were something Laurie could never have imagined when he was on the frontier, but now Laurie did have an army with terrifying obedience.

Perhaps the lord's method of training soldiers was indeed effective, or perhaps teacher Isa's ideological education played a role, but Laurie felt that perhaps it was the combination of the two that produced such an effect.

When they were forty meters away, Lowry was thinking that if it were the ordinary soldiers led by himself on the frontier, they would have probably fled by now facing the charge of the demon cavalry. Those who could stay where they were would already be considered elite, not to mention those who could obey orders and not take action.

But it's still not enough.

When he was thirty meters away, Lowry felt that the time had come. There was a certain delay in throwing the ball, and by the time he threw it out, the enemy cavalry had probably rushed to about twenty meters. Lowry planned to at least skin the opponent alive with this blow, if not kill him, he must at least get some results.

"Throw a grenade!"

Following Lowry's order, the soldiers pulled out the fuses and threw the grenades in unison.
