Chapter 0403: Sneak Attack

At noon, thousands of cavalry galloped along the not very wide road, and the long procession, which was two or three kilometers long, kicked up smoke and dust.

These cavalrymen were all well-armoured, and their banners were painted with rice ears and tigers, and they were the cavalry of the Earls of Meredith and Duke Duncan.

Two kilometers away from the cavalry, stood a fairly majestic city.

Tracy, who took the lead, took the reins, opened the map and looked at it, and after determining his position, he said: "Two kilometers ahead is the city of Edgar, Captain Beecher, you take someone to explore the way." ”

Lieutenant Beecher claimed yes, waved his hand, and galloped along the road with more than eighty of his men.

Halfway through, Lieutenant Beecher turned his horse and rushed up the high slope beside the road, followed by a whirlwind of cavalry.

When they reached the highest point, everyone grabbed the reins of their horses.

Captain Beecher stood skillfully in the saddle, pacing the horse from side to side, his body shaking only slightly.

He took out his binoculars and scanned ahead, although the distance was still far away, he could clearly see the huge city thousands of kilometers away: "That's Edgar City, Hoyle, take your people back to report, and the others continue to move forward." ”

As soon as the words fell, the thirty horsemen turned their horses around and galloped away from the road from which they had come.

Captain Beecher then led the men a few hundred meters forward, and did not stop until he entered the suburbs, and he commanded again: "Waters, take your men back and report." ”

Immediately afterward, another thirty horsemen turned around and left.

Captain Beecher thought about it, and ordered his two soldiers to take off their armor and pretend to be wandering samurai to go to the city to find out the truth, while he led the rest of the men to prepare to meet the large army.

Looking at the magnificent city in the distance, he couldn't help but sigh, and the expression on his face was extremely complicated: "I didn't expect that after nearly thirty years, I would return here." ”

The county of Edgar has a long history, dating back to the end of the Alechoz dynasty.

The Edgar family has lived here for more than two hundred years, and in the entire Arthurian kingdom, there are families like this that can be counted on two hands.

The current owner of Edgar's county can be said to be unknown, but its founder, Timothy Edgar, is a man of the hour.

Timothy was born at the end of the Γ…lehoz dynasty, the exact date of which is unknown, the son of an ordinary commoner, but he was born with divine powers, and was able to lift a boulder of 200 pounds at the age of eight.

According to the conversion of the martial arts level, the strength he has is already equivalent to that of a high-level peak martial artist.

When the general of the garrison at that time learned about this, he took him under his command as a personal soldier, and since then this guy from a civilian background has been on the rise.

At the age of fourteen, he realized that his fighting spirit broke through to the realm of fighting spirit, at the age of twenty he entered the legendary realm, and at the age of fifty-seven he entered the epic realm.

The official position is also getting higher and higher, and he has been promoted from an ordinary soldier to the commander of a general group army, and tens of thousands of hussars have gathered under his command.

In times of great turmoil, the Aureholz dynasty fell apart, and all regions rose together.

If it were Renard, he would definitely achieve great things in this troubled world.

However, I don't know what this General Timothy thought, he actually swore allegiance to the Alerholz dynasty and personally led his troops to suppress the rebellion.

Who was the rebel in this area at the time? That's right! His Majesty Rochelle the Lionheart!

It was an era of heroes and heroes, and the two men in troubled times started a battle to the death.

Because there is not much difference in the strength of the two sides, they have not been able to distinguish the winner after ten years of fighting, but many soldiers have been killed.

Perhaps because he couldn't bear it, in the end His Majesty Rochelle and General Timothy decided to have a gentleman's battle, which was a heads-up to put it bluntly.

The outcome of the battle speaks for itself, and the return of His Majesty Rochel from serious wounds can be regarded as a complete end to this decade-long struggle.

After the founding of the country, His Majesty Rochelle said that if it were not for Timothy's containment, he might have established a unified dynasty instead of the current fragmentation.

But he doesn't hate each other, this may be the so-called heroes cherish heroes.

Captain Beecher seemed to be caught in those eventful years, and after a long time, he showed a bitter smile: "The Edgar family, which is more than two hundred years old, is afraid that it will disappear today." ”

But what does it have to do with him, he's just a wretched creature who has failed to fight for power.

If you say that you are unwilling, it is a little bit.

Thinking about it, he suddenly heard the sound of heavy horses' hooves, like muffled thunder, and then saw countless cavalry coming in a row.

Lieutenant Beecher hurriedly rode his horse to the side of the road, lest anyone could not hold the reins, and he would really die unjustly.

Tracy stood in front of him and asked, "How is the situation in the city?"

Lieutenant Beecher replied in a deep voice, "I just sent someone to investigate, and I'm afraid it will take a while for the information to come back." ”

This is the disadvantage of not having a telephone, if there is a telephone, the spies in the city will explain the matter clearly in a few words.

Tracy nodded: "Then let's wait." ”

Thousands of cavalry stood behind the hillside, and apart from the occasional chatter, there was no commotion, which showed that the county of Meredith and the Duke of Duncan were well organized.

While waiting quietly, Tracy's gaze suddenly fell on Lieutenant Beecher, and he smiled: "Lieutenant Beecher, you should be familiar with the Edgar family, right?"

Lieutenant Beecher looked slightly stunned, and then thought of those elusive Gestapo, and he couldn't help but smile bitterly: "That's right, my full name is Beecher Edgar, you say it's not familiar." ”

Presumably, the Ministry of Intelligence has already investigated its own background clearly, otherwise how could he, a person of unknown origin, be promoted to captain.

Tracy nodded again: "Then how many people are loyal to you in this city?" ”

He had learned from the Ministry of Intelligence that Beecher was the brother of the current head of the Edgar family.

It stands to reason that Beecher is the rightful heir to the territory, but unfortunately his mother died of a serious illness early, and his father soon married another wife and had a son with him, who is now the Earl of Needham.

The next thing is very simple, it is nothing more than a bloody drama of snatching the heir, which is a very common thing in the Northern Continent.

Desperate, Beecher was no match for Needham, and was soon defeated, eventually being sent to the army for refuge by his loyal servants.

Count Needham naturally will not let go of this time bomb, after all, there are not many things to restore.

This happened in the middle of the Aleshoz dynasty, where the two princes took turns to be emperors, going back and forth six or seven times, which became the turning point of the Alehotz dynasty from prosperity to decline.

So Earl Needham used his connections and financial resources to send Beecher to the dangerous Nolan outpost to eat dirt, and if it weren't for the secret help of a few loyal domestic servants, he would not know how many times he would have died.

Fortunately, Beecher is now a mid-level officer in the county of Meredith, and Earl Needham has to think about the consequences even if he wants to do it.
