"What? Why are we blocking the exit, Lord Count! ”

Gna didn't quite understand what Count Argyll meant, he was still too naïve.

"Yes! Honorable Earl, besides, we won't be able to block such a big exit for a while! The English were soon in pursuit! ”

Knight Baird couldn't help frowning and agreed, obviously still having some opinions about the Earl's orders.

In this moment of escape, how can there be time to do anything else to delay.

"Then plug it with stones and tree trunks, you guys hurry!" Count Argyle did not explain anything, but still commanded in a commanding tone.

In desperation, Gna and Knight Baird had no choice but to order their men to help, and it took more than 1,000 people less than ten minutes to pile up a small five-foot-high wall of the valley mouth that was more than 50 feet wide.

Looking at the masterpiece in front of him, the Earl smiled for the first time in a long time, and his heart that had been hanging was finally relaxed.

"Let's go! My gentlemen! Back to the safety of Edinburgh! ”

With a wave of his hand, the Lord Regent pointed in the direction of Edinburgh in the distance, and galloped wildly.

Gna and his tribal warriors followed happily, and Baird hurriedly beckoned the knights and the tired and panting cavalrymen who had just dismounted to carry their things.

As a result, the Scottish force of 30,000 men followed the Earl of Argyle to resist England, but in the end only more than 1,000 cavalry were left to return to Edinburgh with the Earl of Argyle.

At this time, in Pink Canyon, the Duke of Somerset and the Earl of Wellington worked together to hunt down the defeated Scottish soldiers.

In fact, with the support of the Duke and the Earl of Wellington, it was like the last straw that broke the camel's back, and the Scottish soldiers' will to fight was completely destroyed.

It is no exaggeration to say that except for the Duke who could kill and injure a few Scots at the beginning, the rest of the time was spent collecting those Scottish captives who surrendered.

In the end, even the Earl of Warwick, who had just delivered food, joined the battlefield with his sick and wounded logistics troops.

Duke Edward watched boredly as the Scots were tied up one by one, tied hand and foot by the English soldiers, but they only shivered, and most of them had no sense of resistance.

After an hour of such boredom, there was no other time in the whole Pink Canyon

"Dear Earl Wellington, how many of our lads are left now?"

Looking at the chaotic battlefield in front of him, the severed limbs and plasma of all kinds of people were mixed together, and there were eagles and flocks of vultures hovering in the sky.

It was a rare sunny day, but the Duke felt a chill, especially the English boys lying on the grass and moaning.

Even the Duke, who had already experienced countless wars, was faintly touched in his cold heart.

The Earl of Wellington was talking to the priest in the army, and when he heard the Duke ask, he thought for a moment and said:

"Your Excellency! According to the statistics of the priests, our army lost 1,563 dead and 3,216 wounded, of which 2,429 were lightly wounded and 787 were seriously wounded! ”

"And our knights died heroically twenty-eight! I was blown away by their bravery! ”

No way, in this Middle Ages, the most knowledgeable group of people were the priests of the church, and even the nobility of the ruling class, most of them could only write their own names.

More than 2,000 people died in this war, to be precise, and in this era of bloodletting, those seriously wounded soldiers were almost equal to death.

"God forbid us to win this victory, what a good war! Tell me, my Earl, what are our trophies? ”

Duke Edward jumped away from the sad numbers and asked directly about the pleasant things.

The nearby knights seemed to hear the noise, and most of them gathered around and pricked up their ears to listen.

Seeing that Duke Edward did not have the slightest intention of driving people, the Earl of Wellington spoke boldly.

"There are only a few accurate numbers that can be obtained so far, and we have captured a total of two standard cannons, a variant cannon, two standard heavy guns, one speedy cannon, and more than 2,000 Scotsch ponies!"

"And more than fifty thousand pounds of grain, and five hundred barrels of fine wine!"

"As for how many Scotsman soldiers were captured, I'm sorry! Lord Duke, due to the large number, we do not know the exact number at the moment, but we estimate that there are probably more than 10,000 people! ”

"Hooray! Banzai! The knights gathered around Duke Edward could no longer suppress their heartless joy, forgot their physical fatigue, and shouted loudly.

Soon, the soldiers nearby saw the knights shouting happily, even if they didn't know what the reason, they also shouted together when they saw the happy looks of the knights.

Suddenly, Pink Canyon reverberated with countless 'hooray' shouts for a long time.

At this time, Queen Mary, who was only five years old in Scotland, was staying by her mother, Queen Mary, happily playing with her maids.

She wore a crimson velvet cloak around her delicate neck, mink hem, and a long-sleeved satin robe encrusted with precious stones.

The joyful skirt swayed from side to side, and the red face was full of attachment to his mother.

Although Queen Mary's eyes were looking at little Mary, those beautiful eyes were not focused on her! As if thinking about something, the already beautiful face seemed even more eye-catching.

"Mom! What are you doing? Little Mary looked back as she played, and her mother did not look at her, which made her unhappy and pursed her little lips.

"Oh! My little Mary! I'm so sorry! Mom is thinking about things! The Queen Mother hurriedly picked up Little Mary and put it on her lap, she was very fond of Little Mary, and her tone of voice was also doting and soft.

After all, this is her only child, especially after the death of her first two sons, her love for Mary is really deep-rooted.

"Oh! Mom was thinking about something! Can you tell me about Mary? Mary is very smart! ”

Little Mary said in a smug tone, with a quick compliment on her little face.

"Yes! My Mary is the smartest! Mom is thinking about your grandfather who is far away in France! ”

"Since my mother misses my grandfather, I go to see him! I'm going to go with you to see your grandfather too! Little Mary said in a delicate voice, and looked at Queen Mary with those dark blue eyes, with indescribable cuteness!

"But there's something wrong with Mom! So, is it okay for Mary to go and see her grandfather on behalf of her mother? ”

"Well...... No way! I want to be with my mom! Don't go to France! Little Mary thought for a moment, then stared at Queen Mary very seriously, and said seriously.

Queen Mary didn't know what the consequences of the war would be, but she didn't want her daughter to fall into the hands of the English!
