Drake didn't need to look back to know what the troops behind him looked like now.
Those guys must have been scared out of their wits by the Divine Power applied just on Saturday.
Because Drake himself also felt a long-lost sense of panic rising in his heart, yet the old marshal forcibly cald himself down again.
Although he didn't know what that terrifying noise was all about, nor why those big iron balls could fly so fast.
But he knew clearly that if he stopped here, then he would definitely lose this battle, and losing this battle would also an he'd lose Berries Castle.
This was sothing Drake could not accept, so he continued to lead the remaining forces to charge.
In Drake's view, he still had one last chance. If he could capture Ireya, then he would still have a chance to turn the tide.
So when he saw Joseph ahead turning his horse to escape, he was extrely angry and yelled at him to continue forward.
But this ti, Joseph, who had always been obedient, did not listen to his orders, hesitated for a mont, then ran even faster.
If Drake had his hands free at this mont, he would surely personally kill this grandson, for he had plenty of descendants and wouldn't miss this one.
But right now, Drake's mind was entirely occupied by that figure riding a tall horse, worrying that Ireya might retreat after seeing the situation unfavorably, or call in more people to protect herself, so Drake could only let Joseph go temporarily.
At the sa ti, he urged his horse beneath him to continue galloping.
And just as he was getting closer to the girl, he found sohow a strange group of warriors holding slender iron rods ford into two rows, blocking him and his cavalry.
Under the command of soone who looked like a commander, those warriors raised the absurd-looking slender iron rods in front of their chests, laid them flat forward, until the commander ordered them again, then they moved the small iron pieces below the rods.
Drake was still puzzled about what these guys were doing, but in the next mont, he was already in a dizzying spin, and those following saw a horrifying scene.
Only to see the renowned commander of Golden Valley, Black-Eared Drake, fall from his horse like that. And not just Drake, many cavalryn also inexplicably fell from their horses together.
The remaining people, witnessing this, felt their terror reach the peak, and soone shouted.
"Lord Drake is dead, Lord Drake is dead, it's Saturday's curse, it must be Saturday's curse! We are haunted by the curse!"
The second row of gunners hadn't even had ti for a round of volley when the enemy in front utterly collapsed.
Those still alive began to flee chaotically across the hills, also shouting about the curse, clearly scared witless.
Standing beside Ireya as a consultant, Kaden held a telescope and witnessed the whole war, muttering.
"This is just like the massacre of the Indians."
"What are you saying?" Miss Rabbit asked.
"I said we can now have people call for the remaining to surrender," Kaden suggested.
Ireya nodded, "Indeed, the victory and defeat have been decided, fighting further is aningless." After a pause, she added, "Servant Kaden, you are truly a kind person."
Kaden smiled, but of course, she wouldn't explain to the girl her real purpose of keeping people.
These people are all precious resources, each living person ans one more to complete reincarnation in another dinsion.
Ireya let Thomas bring a loudspeaker over, began to shout to those still alive on the hills, she first announced her increasingly long string of titles, then swore in the na of the Arias Family and Saturday, promising to treat prisoners well.
Those remaining soldiers then began to lay down their weapons one after another.
Soone found Drake's body on the battlefield and brought it back, accompanied by a young noble who claid to be Drake's grandson.
Miss Rabbit glanced at the corpse on the ground, the face of this Marson Family Head still had a trace of astonishnt, as if he couldn't believe he had died just like that.
And faced with this opponent, the girl also maintained due respect.
Although leading n to charge toward Italian Cannons and gunners seed a bit silly, it wasn't because Drake was a fool.
On the contrary, the battle plan he formulated actually had no problem in this era, Miss Rabbit before coming didn't think Drake would have such courage, to give up defending strong walls and ambush her halfway.
Only, the opponent Drake faced this ti could not be gauged by usual reasons.
With Li Yu's help, Ireya's army already possessed a technological level beyond this era.
Whether it's telescopes, drones, or wireless walkie-talkies or firearms, cannons, just pick any one from among them is enough to change the history of warfare.
And now with all these things together, Drake's defeat isn't unjustified at all.
Ireya moved her gaze from Drake's body to the young noble in front, "You say you're his grandson?"
Joseph nodded.
"Then later I'll have soone give you the body, you can bury your grandfather in your family's cetery."
Ireya finished speaking and turned to leave, unexpectedly, Joseph called after her again.
"Lady Ireya!"
"Why, do you still want to avenge your grandfather?" Miss Rabbit glanced at the young noble.
"No no no, you misunderstood, I… I wanted to say I, I've read the teachings of the Double Rest Sect." Joseph stamred.
"And then?"
"I greatly admire Saturday, and wish to beco its believer."
"Ha… you want to fool , let lower my guard, and then you can go ho to report?"
"No, of course not, I'm telling the truth." Joseph hurriedly said.
"Actually, I was forced by my grandfather to participate in this battle, from the beginning I warned him we weren't the great Saturday's opponents, but he wouldn't listen to .
"I… I am willing to help you take Berries Castle to prove my loyalty, there are now only my uncle Marvin and less than two hundred defenders there, you can let go in to persuade my uncle."
Miss Rabbit thought about it, felt even if it failed, she wouldn't lose anything, coupled with Joseph's expression seeming earnest, so she agreed.
"Alright then, when we get to Berries Castle I'll let you in, but don't think about running away." The girl warned.
"I won't run away," Joseph said excitedly, "I've been waiting for this mont."
"Uh, you've been waiting for your grandfather to die in battle?"
"No no, I've been waiting to beco Saturday's believer, and your follower, Queen Victoria." Joseph said.
