Chapter 14: The Battle of the Plains of Amesvalon (1) Desperate for Life

After hearing that the army of Amesvalon had been defeated by horse thieves, the Doge's palace was in disarray. In order to draw a clear line with Pierre, all officials at all levels resigned or fled directly. With the exception of Pierre's descendants, most of the Doge's Palace began to pack their belongings.

George paced back and forth in the fortress at this time, and finally George seemed to have made some decision, and took the grapes in the direction of the governor's palace. When he arrived at the Governor's Palace, he found that it had become almost like a vegetable market, and there was no one to guard the door, so George drove straight into the Governor's house to meet the Governor.

On the walls of the Governor's Palace, there were many oil paintings, and Grape kept looking at the paintings on the wall and asked, "Brother, why do you paint like this here!" Do you think these paintings are beautiful? I remember that there were many oil paintings in the house where you lived when you were a child, brother!"

George patted the grapes on the head and said, "What time is this, and I still think about painting! Not to mention when I was a child, when I was a child, I didn't have to worry about eating and wearing big fish and meat every day, and now I have a set of military uniforms to wear for a year... If you want to eat well, you have to be knifed, let's go, don't look at those paintings, and don't eat and drink!"

Grape seemed to remember something and said: "Brother, if you don't say it, I have forgotten, we haven't eaten meat for a long time!

George smiled and quipped, "Alright, grapes! Wait until your brother gets the governor in a moment, and let the governor treat us to a good meal!"

Grape asked, "The Governor will invite us to dinner? Don't lie to me, brother! I can't afford to make jokes about eating... “

George smiled and said to Grape, "Alright, Grape, we can do Governor Pierre a great favor this time, and the Governor should have dinner as it should be... !“

Grape said in disbelief: "Governor Pierre is a great official, I want your mud legs to help!

When George walked up to Pierre, he was crying and laughing, talking to himself like crazy.

George slowly walked up to Pierre and said with a smile, "Mistress Pierre, did you just say that if someone can help you defeat the horse thief, you can reward anything?"

Pierre was startled when he heard someone behind him, and after seeing George's uniform, he calmed down and said, "You are a recruit, why are you in my governor's palace?"

George said, "Forgive my presumptuousness, Lord Pierre, for your guards and squires have almost fled, and we have all come in without a report. !“

Pierre tugged at the fat flesh on his face, a little out of shape, and then said bitterly: "Run! Run! Let's all go! If you don't run the horse thief, you will hit the fortress! At that time, I will be finished, I will be escorted back to the royal capital, maybe I will be executed by the king! Woo woo,,, I am still young,,, I don't want to die!!"

George said loudly: "Lord Pierre, please try to calm down, who said that horse thieves can enter the fortress! Not only can I not enter the fortress, but I am sure that I can kill them outside the fortress, Lord Pierre, I will now apply to you to attack the horse thieves! If you defeat the horse thieves, I hope you will give me a reward and allow me to become a guard alone! It's best to crown me a general!"

Pierre forced himself to calm down, his mind cleared up a little, and asked: "I said recruits, you know, now there is nothing, the army of 1,200 people is gone, what do you use to defeat the horse thief?"

George said confidently: "Mistress Pierre, please listen to me slowly, first of all, I need your letter of appointment and mobilization order, appointing me as the general of the fortress guard, allowing me to mobilize the slaves of the nearby farmers, and have the right to integrate the slaves into the army. If the slaves have made meritorious contributions on the battlefield and are allowed to get rid of slavery, then they will be given support in terms of weapons to ensure the supply of weapons after the establishment of the guards. ”

Pierre thought for a moment and said, "As long as you can help me kill the horse thief, I will meet all the conditions!"

George saluted Pierre and said, "Lord Pierre, I hope you don't break your promise, as long as I have your support, I will definitely be able to repel the horse thief!"

Pierre said: "I swear in the name of the nobles! I will not break my word, I hope you will really repel the horse dealers! As for the letter of appointment and the mobilization order, I will write it to you myself!"

Pierre wrote a letter of appointment in parchment, stamped with the governor's seal, and then wrote a mobilization order, emphasizing that all slaves around the fortress could be conscripted into the army by George, and the same was stamped with the governor's seal.

After receiving the mandate, George hurriedly left the governor's palace and began to prepare to repel the horse thieves.

Pierre sat in the chair again, opened a bottle of liquor and poured it into his stomach, the fool named George just now actually said that he could repel the horse thief, it was ridiculous, what can a little cub about 19 years old who has not dried up to do anything, but it is also excellent to have someone accompany him to the execution ground when waiting for the beheading, I hope that the kid will not die too early, and can accompany him to cut off his head!

Grape asked, "Brother, you don't want to lie to the governor that we can defeat the horse thieves and then go and grab the grain, right?"

George said, "You underestimate your brother too much! Tell you, don't look at the ferocity of the horse thieves, I really have a way to deal with them! Go, go and gather people around the fortress." ”

Grape asked: "Brother, let's not be reckless! We have dispatched 1,200 people before and have not beaten the other party's 200 people!

George said: "That's because there was a problem with the previous army, according to the training methods of the previous army, even if it is 100 years, there will be no elite soldiers, and the person who leads the troops this time is your brother and me, the great George, who is destined to change the situation in the world!"

Grape pretended to retch and said, "I'm disgusting, brother, aren't you bragging?"

I smirked, "It's definitely not bragging, you see, I'm going to turn these slaves into hungry wolves, and then bite all the horse thieves to death!"

After a long time, I came to a farm, where a dozen horse thieves were doing the work of harming the girl, and there were more than a dozen people harming one.

Listening to the screams that stimulated the soul of the Dao and the lewd screams and curses of the horse thieves, Grape couldn't bear it anymore, picked up a bronze spear, and rushed towards the dozen horse thieves.

When the horse thief saw a beautiful woman wearing a national military uniform rushing over, he immediately smiled and surrounded him one by one.

The grapes danced their spears like pythons, and every time the tip of the spear was pointed, one of the horse thieves fell into the dust, and the rest of the horse thieves saw that the other party had come to the point of piercing their hands!

George shouted to all the slaves: "Listen, everyone! horse thieves! rob your food, kill your family, and harm your wives and daughters, and you are indifferent and let these thieves bully! But don't forget! Horse thieves are also human beings, and when you have a scimitar or a spear, you can cut these horse thieves into pieces of flesh or pierce them into a sieve, what are you waiting for? Now take up the knife of the horse thief and go to protect your family! Go and kill all these horse thieves!"

All the slaves showed angry eyes, and they all picked up the tools that could be used around them and rushed towards the horse thieves, and several horse thieves who had lost their fighting spirit were brutally killed after being surrounded by a group of slaves.

George took out the letter of appointment and mobilization order, explained his identity, and began to formally organize the army.

When George chose soldiers, he chose a lot of people who had a bad temper and accepted death, and then people who were strong, and regardless of men and women, as long as they thought that they were crazy people who did not want to die, they would accept them immediately. George emphasized that as long as he made meritorious contributions in battle, then he would no longer be a slave, but a regular soldier of the state, and enjoy the treatment of a regular soldier of the state.

George selected 150 slaves this time and began to set up a stronghold to store food and supplies in a col that was unfavorable to cavalry.

After Grape received weapons from the fortress, George began to train his troops. And send out scouts, while constantly collecting scattered slaves.

After having a war horse, George began to practice riding, at first swaying and riding was not fast, in the state of spiritual blessing, he slowly became familiar with riding, and he could also use war horses to fight, grape riding skills did not need to be practiced at all, after riding a few laps, it was like riding a horse for many years, which made George inferior for several days.

George selected some of the slaves who were good at horseback riding and formed a light cavalry reconnaissance team, which was responsible for reconnaissance and raids.

The Horse Thieves Advance Force sent a group of men back to deliver supplies, and the number was reduced to 150, and the last raid on George and Grape killed 20 people, now about 130 people, continue to divide into small groups to raid nearby farms.

George was keenly spotted and launched a surprise attack on a small group of horse thieves.

On this day, George encountered a robbery team of 20 people, and the other party had strong reconnaissance skills, and after discovering George's guards, he immediately launched a charge.

By the time George reacted, the enemy was almost rushing in front of him, and Grape said to a big, fat, freckled 17-year-old girl behind him, "Ataya, don't panic, listen to my orders to throw." With that, he began to direct the reconnaissance team to start throwing short spears.

After the first round of throwing, 9 of the 20 people on the opposite side were stabbed to death and fell off their horses, and the remaining 11 rushed in front of us, and we began to fight in close quarters. After a hand-to-hand fight, the horse thieves were all killed. We lost 2 people, the rest were all wounded.

We buried the bodies, disposed of the bloodstains, and drove all the horses back to the stronghold.
