These cavalrymen were clearly the best of the best. Every single one of the cavalrymen was wearing a knight's badge of at least rank 3 and above. They were all wearing black steel armour. All of them were wearing black war horses and black cloaks!
The closed helmets made it impossible for others to see the faces of the cavalrymen. As the 5,000 cavalrymen galloped forward, their hooves trampled on the green stone pavement, creating a very rhythmic sound of thunder!
These elite cavalrymen were also very skilled in controlling their horses. The 5,000 cavalrymen formed a long dragon formation, compact and orderly. Even the sound of their hooves was in sync!
The cavalrymen did not panic at all. They trampled on the stone pavement and their speed became faster and faster. Finally, they charged towards the central square of the Imperial City.
Everyone was shocked!
The Monarch remained seated on his chair. However, his face was extremely gloomy and his hands were faintly trembling …
The five thousand fully armed and ferocious cavalrymen were like venomous snakes baring their fangs. Suddenly, all of them pulled out their long swords that had been polished until they shone brightly and charged at the Royal Guards who were guarding the streets outside the square!
As soon as the two phalanxes came into contact, the Royal Army's phalanx, which was caught off guard, collapsed from the impact! Although there were 3,000 of them, the other side had 5,000 of them …
Many of the Imperial Army soldiers who had been standing there for a whole day had become absent-minded. Some of them had even closed their eyes to take a nap. Suddenly, a group of heavy cavalrymen charged over. Many of them did not even have the time to react before they became ghosts under their swords!
Unfortunately, in order to 'look good' during the birthday banquet, these 3,000 Imperial Army soldiers were carefully selected to be the strongest and most powerful elite. However, the weapons they were wearing were the thin and shiny swords that were used for ceremonial purposes.
This kind of sword was usually worn by the nobles as an ornament … When encountering an enemy, it would be chopped into two by the cavalry with the standard military sword in their hands!
Even more unlucky was the fact that the 'beautiful' armour that the Imperial Army soldiers were wearing did not have any defensive capabilities! The other party was clearly an elite. Often, when they brandished their swords, they would be able to easily pierce through the armour of the Imperial Army soldiers!
The surroundings were already in chaos!
Countless onlookers let out terrified screams and ran in all directions. The Imperial Guards who were in charge of maintaining order also split into two groups. One group chased away the frightened onlookers like ducks, while the other group quickly cooperated with the heavy cavalry and formed an encirclement around the Royal Guards!
Everything seemed to have been meticulously prepared!
Corpses fell to the ground one after another. Under those beautiful silver armors, they had become lifeless and incomplete bodies! Heads rolled to the ground one after another, and the green stone pavement on the street was also dyed a horrifying red by blood …
Three thousand of the most elite Royal Guards that had been carefully selected had all died in battle due to their inferior equipment, ambushes, and the fact that the enemy had the advantage in numbers! The Imperial Guards and heavy cavalry that ambushed them only paid a price of less than five hundred men to wipe out the three thousand elite Imperial Guards!
"Murder! Murder!! "
"The Imperial Guards have rebelled!!"
"These people are crazy!!"
A wave of exclamations and angry roars resounded in the square!
