Chapter Eighty-Four: Ke Qiman VS Earl (Middle)

I looked at Vukovic in embarrassment, but fortunately Vukovic said before I could speak: "Most of the Count's helpers are Albanians from Kosovo. Any idea why he is called Earl? Or do you know the meaning of the earl? ”

I shook my head and said, "Title." What else could it be? Don't tell me that this guy's family was a hereditary nobleman in the past, and the title has been passed down here. ”

"Haha, of course not. The original counts, at least as we understand them here, were princes who held military power on the side of the town, and in Northern Europe they were better understood, as chiefs. Vuković looked at me and said, "If the armed forces below are the vassals of the count, according to the medieval saying in the past, the count provides them with refuge, and the count has the right to recruit them. Of course, the count paid a lot, which is why those people were willing to help him fight. ”

"I see. Earl... Haha, this is the first time I've heard of this. I said and looked at Vukovic, and at that moment another group of men appeared from the road, and this group of people had stepped back from the front, and it looked like it was carrying a lot of wounded and corpses.

"I'm going to ask them about it." Vukovic looked at the men and turned to them. Trovic walked up to us and said, "You said you were going to destroy the Count?" Is it true or fake? ”

"Of course it's true. Why do you ask? I asked.

Trovic pointed to the people around here: "It doesn't seem easy to me, rely on these people?" I guess you can't even call them by name. ”

"I know that the Earl has been entrenched here for a long time and is very powerful. But isn't it already under siege by everyone now? I said.

Trovic shook his head, "I'm not optimistic, if I were to bet, I would definitely buy the Earl to hold his territory." Don't forget, there are also peacekeepers. They don't care who you are against whom, they only have one, don't fight! Then they went home. ”

"Then you mean there's not much time left for Ke Qiman this time?" I asked.

"Of course. So I'm betting that the Count will hold on, at least not to lose. Trovic said.

I nodded and looked at the sun, "So what?" They can't take it, don't they still have me? I don't want to wait for the Count to knock again. ”

Trovic looked at me in surprise when I said this, and after a moment he gave me a thumbs up and said, "Ambitious." But if you're going to attack him, I'll support you with your weapons at most, and I won't fight him with you. Unless he comes to hit you. ”

"No problem." I smiled and said, "I'm happy that you can do that." ”

Then the two of us fell silent, just watching the people who carried the wounded busy. Vukovic walked towards us after a few circles among the men. At this time, Trovic suddenly spoke: "If the Count is really killed by you one day... So what should everyone call you? ”

I looked at Trovic puzzled, "What do you call it?" ”

"You defeated the earl, shouldn't that be a marquis, a duke or something?" Trovic said inexplicably.

I shook my head helplessly, this old stuff head is really a bit of a problem. Then Trovic, who I didn't care about and was still there, looked at Vukovic and said, "Is there any new development?" ”

Vukovic nodded and said, "Fastich is said to have successfully blocked the attacks of those helpers. The two mortars bombarded the Count's defenses, and Kochiman's team kept advancing, not fast, but making progress. ”

It seems that Ke Qiman really has a set, I looked at Vukovic and said, "Then are the casualties on both sides of them large?" ”

"It's said to be not small. I heard from a man who brought the wounded down that he heard Fastich persuade Cochiman to talk to the Count and get some benefits. Vukovic said.

"This useless guy." I sighed and said, "What do you mean by Ke Qiman?" ”

Vukovic shook his head, "I don't know how, but the man said that Keqiman didn't agree, but instead urged his commanders to hurry up and attack!" But for now, they are still a long way from the count's castle, that is, the big warehouse. ”

I nodded and said, "I have a question for you, and while it may be a bit silly, I want to ask it clearly." ”

Vukovic looked at me and nodded, "Just ask, didn't I just answer questions for people?" ”

"What if the peacekeepers come? Passing through us, do I let them go or not? I asked.

"You're ready to fight even the peacekeepers?" Before Vukovic could speak, Trovic had already said in surprise, "With just such a little belongings like you, no one else needs to fight you, just call for air support and you'll be over." ”

"I'm not ready to fight. It's just that if they're going to go from here, I'd like to hold them back and let Kechiman and the Earl fight a little longer. I said.

Vukovic shook his head and said, "What kind of team does that look like?" If it's the real un then you can hold it off for a while as long as you don't do it, but if it's the mercenaries who come... ”

"How?" I asked.

Vukovic sighed and said, "I advise you to honestly get out of the way." Let them pass. ”

I nodded, if so, judging by the collusion between the Earl and the mercenaries, and even with NATO, it should not be long before the "peacekeepers" come. I hope Keqiman and the Earl can fight a little more fiercely, hurry up, you two.

"Can I ask you a question, then?" Vukovic looked at me and said.

I nodded and said, "Just ask about my employer from time to time, just ask." ”

"I'm not that curious. The fact that you know Milic, who fights the Count, and who wants to go against the peacekeepers here already shows that you won't be sent by Serbia's enemies. I'm wondering which side you want to win. Vukovic said.

I looked at Vukovic, and I was hoping that they would lose both. That would be more suitable for my own actions in the future. However, from Vukovic's point of view, they were both Serbs when facing the Count, they were all together. Thinking of this, I said, "I hope to kill the Count." ”

Vukovic looked at me for a moment and said, "I thought you wanted them to lose." Hehe. In fact, they both lose, which in my opinion is a good ending. ”

Vukovic's words surprised me and I didn't know how to answer for a while. Could it be that Ke Qiman is also a guy who has a bad reputation here? I haven't heard of it. So what did Vukovic do for them to lose both? Is there a personal vendetta?

"Then if that NATO mercenary comes, will they attack Cochiman and attack Cochiman with the Earl?" I asked.

Vukovic shook his head and said, "It's hard to say. But it's possible. But I don't think those of you are stupid, they shouldn't ignore this. ”

I'm sure of that. Ke Qiman is not only not a fool, but also a shrewd person with all kinds of small calculations. Although I suspect that he also has a leg with NATO, doesn't that just make him not so vulnerable to attacks from NATO forces?

It was quickly past three o'clock in the afternoon, and our station was almost a field hospital, and now there were not only the wounded of us and Vukovich, but also a large number of those who had been sent down from the Earldom. The medics assigned to me are now at full capacity, and some of the treated wounded are being assigned to hospitals elsewhere.

I looked at these wounded, and this time Ke Qiman was out of the way. I probably counted, and there were about fifty or sixty wounded, and that's just the wounded, and the corpses that had been killed and didn't have time to be transported. This time they threw in four or five hundred men, and the casualties were already twenty percent. And what about the Earl? Thinking about this, I can't help but feel a little secretly happy.

And while I was having fun, the sentry entered the garrison with a man I had seen, one of the men who had followed Kirchiman and Fastich to the garrison before. What is he here for? It looks like he's trying to talk to us.
