"These soldiers, who were also soldiers of the Third Legion, many of them former officers, were framed by the royalists as staunch rebels, and they fled with me in order to escape the persecution."

"Originally, there were more than 1,000 people who fled with me, but after some losses in these years of fighting, they only have more than 500 people left!"

As he spoke, Barlow sighed and said: "Over the years, the soldiers have been dead and wounded, and even the remaining old brothers are already injured, after this holy war, I am afraid that it will be time for our criminal mercenary group to disband!" ”

In fact, he led the army to participate in the holy war, in fact, it was not entirely for any atonement, after all, he was able to be the deputy commander of a legion, he was not just a naïve fanatic.

In addition to his obligations as a saint, his original intention was to gain the favor of the Church, and then give them a legal status, or to be able to occupy a territory here and be recognized by the Church.

Over the years, they have wandered around the continent, and the life of homelessness is not easy, and he and the sinners very much hope to have a territory that truly belongs to them, a home that belongs to them.

Looking at Barlow in front of him, William said, "Don't you want to go back to the Third Legion, or find Greine to take revenge?" ”

"No, I don't want to, his rule has been stabilized, not to mention, he is also doing very well, the Rhodeland Empire is in peace under his notice, I don't want to go back to be that eternal sinner, my task now is to arrange these brothers who follow me well!"

Barlow sighed and said helplessly.

"Okay, then you might as well follow me! At least I can give your brothers a good home! ”

After listening to this, Barlow lowered his head and thought.

"Lift up your head and fight for me!"

William held his chin and raised his head to look at himself, William looked into Barlow's eyes and said solemnly: "I will be the best destination for you, and I can give you and your brothers the best result!" ”

"So, fight for me!"

Barlow thought about it, he was not also resistant to allegiance to William, after all, it could be seen that William was indeed powerful, and it could be seen from the powerful knights that if there was no strong economic foundation, they would not be able to raise such a terrible knights.

After thinking for a moment, he nodded and said, "Okay sir, I owe allegiance to you!" ”

"Excellent! From today onwards, you are my vassal, and I am your vassal! ”

"In addition to leading troops to fight, your task is to help me teach middle and low-level officers, I need to train officers in a formation, you will be my right-hand man!"

William said that the establishment of a training school for these talents was a plan that William had already thought of, after all, his current territory was already very large, and it was not as easy to manage as it was at the beginning.

Now William's territory officers, officials, craftsmen, these talents are all scarce, in addition to these technical talents, he also lacks research and development talents, such as the Astra Kingdom These engineering equipment, without the help of research and development talents, he can't build it anyway.

This officer training program was also an important part of William's conception.

The rest of the cultivation William intends to carry out as soon as he returns to the territory.

"Yes, my lord, as your vassal, I will follow all your instructions!"

After hearing this, William nodded and said, "Very good!" ”

In this way, the light cavalry who had cleaned up the battlefield quickly assembled, and the remaining more than 300 guilty soldiers also got up and assembled when they saw Barlow's arrival.

Barlow looked at the sinners around him and said, "From today onwards, we are the Earl of Denlenburg in front of us, William. Lord Wallace's men! I've officially become a vassal of this lord! He promised us a piece of territory where we could live in peace! ”

As he spoke, Barlow's eyes gradually moistened, and he whimpered, "We finally have our own home!" We don't have to be displaced anymore! ”

After hearing this, the other sinners also had red eyes, sore nostrils, and tears fell down one after another, and they suffered a lot of grievances after more than ten years of displacement, all because they did not have their own territory, if they had their own territory, then they still needed to see the faces of others to endure the grievances?

"Hooray! We finally have a home! ”

"Long live Earl William! Thank you for your kindness! ”

"We will do our best to serve you! Thank you for your kindness in being able to give us a home! ”

Seeing these tough guys on weekdays crying one by one at this time, William also felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, although he had not experienced it, but he knew the grievances under the fence.

"No need to do this, you are all warriors, you are all the most brave and fearless warriors, you should have a home, not fight aimlessly, and then die on the battlefield one day and be forgotten!"

"From today onwards, you will no longer be homeless, Denlenburg is your home!"

"Hooray! Long live Lord Earl! ”

"Your lordship, your reign will be long and peaceful!"

These sinners had long since had enough of being on the move and being looked down upon, and William was able to gather their morale with a simple remark.

In this way, William's troop sequence added a criminal soldier.

After gathering them, William continued to have the light cavalry search hundreds of kilometers around, looking for scattered reinforcements from the enemy.

Sure enough, after the light cavalry sweep, several more reinforcements of the Norvids were found, and the number of each of their troops did not exceed a thousand, but these several troops together were already seven or eight thousand!

Counting the reinforcements from the other two routes, I am afraid that the enemy supporting Fort Nobarev has exceeded 15,000 men.

Of course, none of these discovered Norwedian reinforcements were spared, they were all pinned down by the light cavalry for a while, and then they were rushed by the Iron Cross Knights, and they suffered heavy casualties.

Basically, none of the Norweed reinforcements in William's area could escape William's volley, and all of them fell on this icy snowfield.

William stayed there for a few more days, plundering a lot of food from the nearby tribes or scattered villages, enough to feed the jihadist for at least two days.

Don't look at the food is only enough to eat for two days, but this is also quite a huge amount, the food supply of 140,000 people, even the excrement of the food they eat, it is a small mountain when piled up.

William's plundering of the impoverished Norvids was the result of digging into the ground, and in this way, they escorted the grain back to the Jihadist camp outside Fort Nobarev.
