Three hundred and twenty-fourth section commotion
The war burned in Mason, and the nobles who supported the Earl of Lauziz, their estates were attacked by heavy cavalry led by Arod, the houses and fields were burned, and their young sons were kidnapped. When the servants of the nobles brought this news from their land, the Earl of Lauziz's camp caused a great uproar.
"Arod's cavalry burned my estate, damn beast, I and him are not finished."
"My sons were taken away, God, I shouldn't have participated in this fight."
"My children were taken away, but because of this we should defeat the mean Arod and his minions."
"How to defeat? We are trapped here, and there is no protection for one soldier or one soldier in my land."
"We should leave and return to their respective lands. Our soldiers are for the protection of their families, and here they are in vain." The nobles quarreled in Count Lauziz's tent. They learned that their homeland behind them had been burned. They were furious and demanded to lead the army out of Count Lauziz's camp. Count Lauziz was sitting on an arc-shaped wooden chair. He held his head and frowned and looked at the nobles, and saw that the army joined by the Masons were about to scatter.
"Sir, don't panic. This is just a revenge of a small group of remnants of the Wendell family. We should not be distracted." Seeing the nobles becoming more and more troubled, Earl Lauziz finally stood up, and he said loudly to the noisy nobles. After hearing Earl Lauziz's words, the nobles finally calmed down.
"Dear Count, are you sure you are the remnant party of Lida Castle?" Sir Sizer wore a leather armor with round iron nails inlaid with soft thick wool shoulder pads at his neck. He held the hilt of his waist with his left hand and his right hand with his waist, and asked at Earl Lauziz.
"Yes, many remnants of Lidar Castle fled into the forest. Although we sent people to search, it was not very effective. There were still people who had a good impression of the Wendell family in the forest near Lidar Castle. They must have attacked your land in order to find food." Earl Lauzits said to the nobles in an unquestionable tone.
"The Count said, Arud's army would definitely come along the road to rescue Lida Fort, how could it suddenly run behind us?" At this time, some nobles began to agree with Earl Lauziz's words. They did not expect Arud would enter through the water, and the speed was beyond their expectations.
"But my servants said that the people who attacked my estate were wearing the black lion flag, which was only Aroud's." Sir Sizer was not that easy to fool, and he looked at Earl Lauziz with his eyes slanted.
"This is the cunning place of the remnants of Lidarburg. Lidarburg is the residence of Arod's father and brothers. It is normal to have one or two black lion flags. These people hold this flag to mislead us and make us think that Arod fell from the sky to our rear. In fact, this is just their trick, not to mention that they kidnapped children in exchange for ransom. From this point of view, it can be seen that this is just a group of bandits and villains." Monk Robert, who stood in the corner of the tent, stood up and explained to the nobles. What he explained was very reasonable. The nobles finally let it go after hearing this. As long as it was not Mecklenburg's large army appeared on their land, there would be a chance to save their families.
"Even those remnants, they cannot let them go and burn our homes like this. What's more, our children are still in their hands." Sir Sizer once again threw the problem before Count Lauziz. Although he participated in the war to support Count Lauziz, now everyone suffered losses for Count Lauziz. As the leader and leader, Count Lauziz should make a statement to solve these problems before the nobles.
"Don't worry, Sir Zeze and all the adults, I will divide a part of the army to sweep away the remnants. As for your losses, I will compensate all Monk Robert." Earl Lauzits said to the nobles heroically, and then raised his chin at Monk Robert and went to a small box covered with blue wool cloth in a corner southwest of the tent.
"Click." Monk Robert walked over and carried the small box made of solid oak to the wooden table beside him. Then he pushed away the iron hookup that was placed below. When Monk Robert opened the wooden box, the nobles could hardly open their eyes.
"This is, this is, jewelry~~~."
"Ah, so much, God." The small wooden box was filled with boxes of jewelry, round pearl necklaces, rings made of gold, emeralds scattered among them. No one knew how much the things in it were worth. This made the nobles from the countryside of Mason straighten their eyes, with greedy eyes in their eyes.
"How about it, these are enough to compensate you for your losses." Earl Lauziz looked at the shocked nobles and couldn't help but smile contemptuously, but no nobles discovered this at this time, and they were all attracted by the boxes of jewelry.
"Enough, enough, please don't worry, Count, we will continue to serve you." Seeing that the enough wealth displayed by Earl Lauziz had effectively stabilized the morale of the army. How could there be no money in war? The nobles left Earl Lauziz's tent with satisfaction.
"Sir, do you think it is really the cause of the remnants of Lidarburg?" Monk Robert said to Earl Lauziz when he saw the nobles walk out of the tent.
"Hmph, how do I know, maybe, maybe not, but no matter what, we can't let the rear have problems. Send three hundred, no five hundred soldiers to search for areas where there may be enemies." Earl Lauziz snorted coldly, blocking the army's necessary path to Mecklenburg's army, in order to block Arod here with a relaxed and waiting for the road. The road here is lined with gentle slopes with higher terrain. Just arrange the archers on the hills to attack the advancing enemies from a high place, so how can we easily get out of this place?
"It's the Count." Monk Robert immediately agreed. There was no doubt that Count Lauziz's arrangement was very cautious. Before he knew it, Count Lauziz had regarded Arod as his biggest enemy in his life.
Soon, five hundred soldiers were divided from Count Lauziz's camp. Because it was to search for the remaining Lida Fort army, Count Lauziz specially asked 50 swordsmen, the sons of the nobles, to join, so he sent 400 light infantry, fifty swordsmen and fifty archers, and the lineup was spectacular.
"Master Grover." The generals leading this search team were the three wild boar brothers. Just as the short and fat Grover was on the horse in armor, he was stopped by Monk Robert. Therefore, Grover held the reins of the horse with both hands, causing the tall war horse to stop.
"Oh, it's Monk Robert. What's wrong? Does Lord Earl have any new orders?" Grover asked Monk Robert curiously. He wore a fully enclosed helmet on his head, and he could only look through the gaps in the eyes of the helmet. In fact, he didn't like such a fully enclosed helmet, but he was often teased by the nobles in the camp, so he had no choice but to use his helmet to cover up his ugly face.
"Mr. Grover, please don't forget our agreement." Monk Robert walked to Grover and said to the ugly general.
"Oh, but Monk Robert, do you really think the Earl will lose?" Grover bent down and lowered his voice, saying to Monk Robert. Earl Lauzits had gathered more than 2,000 troops, and it was impossible to lose easily in any aspect.
"Only God knows the outcome of the battlefield, but no matter whether Count Lauziz wins or loses, do we understand what we have to get from the warehouse? Do you want to be Count Lauziz's hawk for the rest of your life?" The red birthmark on Monk Robert's face twitched. He looked at the direction of Count Lauziz's tent and had a new plan in his mind. However, when this plan was planned, I'm afraid he himself didn't know.
"I understand, drive it." Grover nodded, and the iron helmet made a metal friction sound. He straightened his body and held the reins tightly and paused. The war horse carried him out of the camp with the five hundred soldiers. Most of the weapons in the hands of the light infantry had been replaced. This was the weapons of the confiscated Fort Rida and the weapons of the dead, so this unit seemed quite majestic.
"Yeah." Monk Robert watched Grover and others walk out of the camp, stretched out his finger and drew a cross at them. This was his habit as a clergy. He should have been in charge of a monastery quietly, but the abominable Wendell family ruined his dream, but his anger had been relieved slightly. He raised his head and looked at Baron Wendell's head on the pinnacle inserted at the gate. The baron's pale head was a little rotten, and a group of flies buzzed around, only the baron's white eyes staring at the boss as if he was unwilling to give up.
"Taste the taste of betrayal, Baron Wendell, bah." Looking at the baron's head stuck in the pointed wooden stake, Monk Robert's mouth grinned. Who could have expected that several knights had been bribed in the Lida Fortress. Taking advantage of the night, the bribed knights attacked the city gate and introduced the troops that had been waiting outside into the fortress, which would have eliminated the Wendell family. Otherwise, even if more than 2,000 troops continued to siege Lida Fortress, they would probably not be able to conquer Lida Fortress within a few days.
"The people of the Wendell family are really stubborn. They would rather die than surrender."
"Don't mention it, the castle seems to be cursed, so we should not mention it." Just as Monk Robert spitted at Baron Wendell, several nobles passing by said to each other. It was a tragic battle. The people of the Wendell family were like beasts trapped in desperate situations, and the wild wolf that rushed up from the prayer room made the soldiers of Count Lauzits who were invading, which almost collapsed, and made many people shudder.
