Simon''s flail was cut off and didn''t give up. He waved the remaining long stick and swept Fatima''s cheek with his backhand.
Simon''s move was so fast that fatimagen couldn''t block it with a machete. In desperation, Fatima had to fall obliquely to the ground, which escaped Simon''s blow.
But the situation did not get better. Simon kicked the shield that Fatima threw on the ground.
The steel shield flew from the ground and fell to Simon''s side after a very short parabola.
Then Simon clenched the long stick in his hand. He held it high above his head and slammed it at Fatima.
Fatima rolled on the ground one after another to avoid Simon''s attack. But this is not a long-term plan after all. If she can''t get up from the ground or knock Simon down, she will lose in Simon''s hands sooner or later.
This time, Fatima had to regret her carelessness. She didn''t expect Simon to change his moves so quickly and have so much practical experience.
But Simon won''t let Fatima have enough time to lie on the ground and regret. He took a big step forward, so that the attack distance of the long stick was closer to Fatima. If Fatima wanted to avoid enough safe distance, he had to roll faster and farther, and he had to consume more physical strength; If she lies still, she will be hit by Simon''s long stick. The short Damascus machete is not enough to defend her whole body.
In short, both options fall into Simon''s calculations.
But Fatima became the most successful assassin in the Ottoman court because of her strong adaptability and physical reaction.
Fatima chose neither hard resistance nor evasion. One side of her body rolled in the direction of Simon.
Simon''s long stick hit Fatima''s original position accurately, and a small hole was hit in the hard land. Fatima succeeded in hiding between Simon and the long stick.
Then Fatima took her left hand as the fulcrum and swept her right leg. Simon was caught off guard and swept to the ground. She jumped up and sat down on Simon''s chest, and her legs pressed Simon''s hands firmly.
"I surrender," Simon said.
His hands were pressed, and he had lost all his means of resistance.
Fatima gasped and stood up from Simon. She took off her helmet, and the continuous fierce exercise made her sweat, and her face and neck were full of sweat. The wings of her nose trembled violently, breathing the air.
Fatima reached out a hand to Simon and pulled him up.
"You are better than any man I know."
When he got up, Simon really praised him.
Fatima didn''t answer. She went straight back to her team.
"You won. Gentlemen and ladies. We will keep our promise and stop chasing. And your gentleman behavior convinced me that you are all honest people." Walter patted Simon on the shoulder for comfort, and then said to Fatima and yelishei.
Two wins in three innings. Since he lost to yelishei and Simon also lost, there is no need to play in the third inning.
With that, Walter got on the horse, and the other winged cavalry got on the horse neatly. They lined up and returned in the direction of coming.
"This is the real knight." yelishei looked at Walter and others and exclaimed.
"Boring chivalry." Fatima scoffed at Walter and others.
"What are you going to do if you lose?" yelishei teased Fatima. In the whole mercenary regiment, only yelishei dared to joke with Fatima like this.
"You''ll just shoot at that time. No matter how bad the shooting is at such a close distance, how can you put down four or five? The remaining two people are more than enough to deal with one person."
Yelishei was stunned by Fatima.
"God, how could you let my ears hear such words!" yelishei sighed.
"I''m really sorry. I preach Allah, not God."
Fatima finished and patted the dust on her body. The dust stuck in the crack of the lock armour fell one after another like snowflakes. After the beating, Fatima got on the horse and was ready to catch up with Chris and Ingrid.
Halfway through, they met Ingrid.
"Chris has crossed the river. When we got to the ferry, we were lucky to meet a boat. The boatman said that most of the boats here were hired by the Swedes on the other side at a high price. Today, he returned to the south bank because he came home to see his wife." Ingrid told Fatima and others.
Now that we have completed the delegation of the regiment head and sent people safely to the other side of the river, and no one has been injured, we are naturally very happy. According to the custom of the mercenary regiment, Ingrid, as a quartermaster, took out 120 Taylor and gave them to everyone.
Everyone was happy except yelishee.
But yelishei put a Taylor between his fingers and turned it unconsciously.
As a soldier of the former czar Russia and once an adjutant of Prince Alexei, yelishei thought more deeply than everyone else.
All the ships on the south bank were recruited by the Swedes at a high price. This action is too abnormal. Because it is more than enough to transport tens of thousands of people and materials in such a large amount. On weekdays, even super large caravans transporting materials can not have such a large scale. What''s more, it was during the war in neighbouring countries.
The only possibility is military action.
With this in mind, yelishei felt a palpitation. Before the war, Prince Alexei was most worried that the kingdom of Sweden would join the war, because with the existing national strength of Czar Russia, it was impossible to fight with the two powerful countries of the kingdom of Sweden and the Republic of Poland.
Now, does this unusual ship movement mean that the kingdom of Sweden is ready to help the Republic of Poland attack czar Russia upstream.
At this moment, yelishei really wanted to write a letter to Prince Alexei immediately, so that the prince could take precautions in advance. Because it was related to the lives of tens of thousands of Russian soldiers, he could not help hesitating at the thought of his current identity.
"Oh, yelishei. What are you thinking?" Ingrid asked strangely when she saw yelishei''s long silence.
Yelishei, who was fighting between heaven and man, heard someone calling him and finally woke up from the battle between heaven and man.
"Nothing, Ingrid. I''m thinking that with these twenty Taylor, I should find some noble girls in Mia jersk to be natural and unrestrained." yelishee fooled Ingrid.
Ingrid''s pretty face turned red when she heard yelishei say so.
"If you''re not serious, don''t ruin the reputation of our mercenary regiment." Ingrid spat.
