In this era of war, warhorses were a very scarce resource. They belonged to the top strategic resource, and the nobles who owned a large number of warhorses would never sell them. Even if they had enough wealth, it was difficult to buy a large number of warhorses.
In the nearby territories, only the Great Feudal Lord, Earl Warren, owned a large number of warhorses. Chen Mo proposed to buy a large number of warhorses at a high price and asked them to send people to escort him. Chen Mo believed that in order to find out more about him, Earl Warren would most likely agree.
Things went as Chen Mo expected. Earl Warren not only agreed to his request to buy warhorses, but also sent nearly half of his high-end forces to escort him. The moment Chen Mo saw the group of Knight escorting him, he already knew Earl Warren's plan.
Chen Mo had only shown a slight sign of weakness, and this group of arrogant knights who had been blinded by the gold couldn't wait to attack him.
This was also what Chen Mo hoped. Since the surrounding nobles had already set their sights on him, he didn't need to lie low anymore. Anyway, he was almost ready and could start the next step of his plan.
In fact, even if they didn't attack him, Chen Mo wouldn't let them leave. In Chen Mo's plan, this group of Knight was the first step of Chen Mo's expansion.
However, compared to them leaving Chen Mo and attacking him, this was obviously more in line with Chen Mo's interests and was more conducive to mobilizing the people's morale.
Chen Mo also saw the performance of Andrew and the territorial guards. Whether it was loyalty or reaction, he was very satisfied. This showed that his training and training were effective, and his observation of them was not wrong.
The enemy had launched an attack according to Chen Mo's plan, and all his goals had been achieved. Chen Mo naturally wouldn't watch his loyal soldiers die in the hands of the enemy.
Although Chen Mo's troops were not much weaker than the enemy, the cavalry had a natural advantage over the infantry. The powerful impact of the galloping warhorses was not something an ordinary person could withstand. Coupled with the advantage of speed, height, and armor, Chen Mo's soldiers would definitely suffer heavy casualties if they were to clash head-on.
The Knights were only a dozen meters away from Chen Mo. It would only take a few seconds for the horses to charge over.
From the moment the Knight pulled out their swords to the moment Andrew and the others reacted, only a short period of time had passed.
At this time, dozens of war horses under the command of the Knight had just begun to charge. Andrew and the others had just rushed to the front of Chen Mo, and the guards only had time to rush forward a few steps.
At this moment, Chen Mo suddenly moved.
Chen Mo's legs kicked hard on the ground, and his body instantly leaped out diagonally, over the heads of Andrew and the others who were in front of him. He directly crossed a dozen meters and landed in front of the charging Knight team.
The two Knight at the front of the team saw Chen Mo take the initiative to rush forward. They didn't have time to be surprised by Chen Mo's exaggerated jumping ability. They directly raised their swords and slashed at Chen Mo in front of them.
Facing the two swords that were slashing at him from both sides, Chen Mo's face was as calm as water, but his eyes flashed with a cold light.
With a thought, the King's Sword instantly appeared in his hand. Ignoring the two sharp swords that were quickly slashing at him, Chen Mo slashed horizontally across the air.
The incomparably expensive Knight's swords and solid armor were as fragile as paper in front of the invincible King's Sword. The King's Sword slashed horizontally and directly cut the two Knight, along with the swords in their hands and the heavy armor on their bodies, into two pieces.
With the jolting of the war horses, the upper half of their bodies directly fell from the backs of the horses, but the lower half of their bodies were still on the horses, running forward together.
However, they had just begun to charge, and the war horses hadn't run yet. Now that there was no Knight driving them, the two war horses began to slow down and soon stopped, carrying the two halves of the corpses on their backs, snorting in confusion.
Chen Mo's figure didn't stop at all, and he continued to slash at the Knight behind him with his sword.
Although these Knights were riding on war horses, it didn't give them any advantage. Chen Mo was tall and had long arms, and the King's Sword was more than a meter long, so it could easily hit the Knight on the war horse.
Chen Mo dodged the charging war horses and kept slashing at the group of Knight.
The Knight, who had just begun to charge, was completely disrupted by Chen Mo's sudden attack. When they saw Chen Mo rushing into their midst, they all reined in their horses, turned their horses around, and surrounded Chen Mo.
But in this way, they lost their biggest advantage. They couldn't take advantage of the speed and impact of the war horses. On the contrary, because they gathered together to hinder each other, their flexibility was greatly reduced, which made it easier for Chen Mo to attack.
The group of Knight squeezed together, trying to surround Chen Mo in the middle, and slashed at him with their swords. But Chen Mo didn't dodge, and all the weapons that were slashing at him were broken by his sword. Before they could change to other weapons, Chen Mo followed up with a powerful sword attack. Every sword attack took at least one life away.
Usually, their armor was extremely strong and could withstand almost all attacks, but under Chen Mo's sword, it was as fragile as paper. Every dead Knight's armor was slashed by Chen Mo, and every one of them was killed in one blow.
For a moment, the sword flashed in the group of Knight, and countless blood splattered everywhere. The neighing of the war horses, the shouting of the people, and the mournful screams of the people before death resounded throughout the manor.
The battle started suddenly and ended quickly. When Andre and the others reacted and rushed up with the soldiers of the territory guards, the battlefield was already covered in blood.
Dozens of war horses carried corpses on their backs that only had legs and a small part of their torso left. The blood flowing from the corpses had already dyed their backs red.
The ground was littered with broken weapons, shield fragments, and dozens of Knight corpses that had been cut in half along with their armor.
A group of more than twenty fully armed Knights and more than forty Knight Attendants, a powerful group of Knights that could fight against a dozen werewolves, was completely annihilated by Chen Mo in an instant.
Nearly half of the Knight force under Count Warren's command was destroyed, and nearly two hundred excellent war horses were sacrificed for nothing.
With war horses, they could form a Knight. Apart from Andre and the other nine who already had the strength of a Knight, the strength of the hundreds of guards wasn't any weaker than the average knight Attendants.
It had to be said that Chen Mo had schemed against Count Warren quite well this time, and he had used this scheme to achieve many of his goals.
