More than 300 arrows went down, which directly caused more than 100 light infantry to lose their combat effectiveness, and of course, there were not a few who were accidentally injured by arrows shot by their own people.

That's why archers aren't used in hand-to-hand combat, but now that both sides are using archers, the casualties, of course, are bigger.

By the beginning of the battle, William's light infantry had lost nearly 200 men, and the enemy had also lost nearly 500 men, of course, not all of them were dead, but many of them were lightly wounded and unconscious.

But such losses were also quite staggering, and within ten minutes, the total number of people lost on both sides was more than 700 people, and there were no such big losses even on the frontal battlefield.

On the frontal battlefield, it is said that the losses are not large, but it is better to say that there have been no casualties for the time being.

Just as the two sides were about to collide, Viscount Kewen rushed out with dozens of knights and vassals on horseback, and shouted to the light infantry together: "Soldiers, you are my soldiers, and I am the one who shelters you and your family, so now you must follow me!" I am your master! Now follow me! ”

With that, he held aloft the flag in his hand, on which was painted the coat of arms representing his family, and began to turn around and rush in the other direction on his warhorse.

The vassals of my vassals are not my vassals, everyone knows this, not to mention the fact that the soldiers below do not need to say it at all, they are only loyal to their masters.

Some of them were Viscount Cowen's own army, and some were knights and barons, but obviously, their masters were all following the Viscount, so there was no need to think about it, of course, they chose to follow.

And the direction of their U-turn charge was the hill that Viscount Raul was defending, and although Viscount Curvin desperately hoped to defeat his old enemy William on the battlefield, reason prevailed over hatred.

He had clashed with William many times, even more than his long-time opponent, Viscount Raul, but in his opinion, William's and Baron Bayer's forces were not enough to hold the high ground.

Even if William's troops were all elite, it would not help, just the number of armed infantry was twice as many as theirs, and they were not defending in the castle, Jiusan suffered a little more casualties, but in the end it would still be victorious.

Therefore, for the sake of safety, he gave up the opportunity to defeat William, and instead chose to attack Viscount Raul, after all, Viscount Raul had more than a thousand soldiers, and this time he was the only nobleman who mobilized all his troops, quoting that after the death of Baron Comos, the manor was inherited by William through Wella, so his strength was a little weak.

The army responsible for attacking Viscount Raul had fifteen or six hundred people, and it was not easy to conquer this number, so he immediately made a decision and immediately set his sights on Viscount Raul, like they launched an attack.

The Count of Loire stood on a small high ground in the rear, looking at all this with red eyes, and he thought that since the Viscount of Cowen wanted the title and the territory, he would give it back to him and let him give up the betrayal.

Originally, the earl had already relaxed his vigilance after saying those words, even if he planned to dispose of Viscount Kewen after the war, it would be after the war, and he was unexpectedly that Viscount Kewen would rebel after hearing those words.

"My lord! My lord! Another force from down the hill is rushing towards us! One of the knights broke away from the hard fight and ran to Viscount Raul's side, screaming loudly.

"What did you say?" Viscount Raul was taken aback when he heard this, and looked down with his hand.

"That'...... Isn't that the banner of Viscount Curvin? He's mutinied! This damn traitor!! Viscount Raul roared hoarsely, and as an old man who was only a little younger than the Earl, his face began to turn red.

"My lord, what shall we do now?" The knight asked subconsciously, and the two remaining vassals of the Viscount also looked at Viscount Raul with nervous expressions.

Viscount Raul had a gloomy face and kept silent, and his vassals also looked at him expectantly, the vassals of the vassals are not my vassals, this is true, but in the same way, the vassal of the vassal is not my vassal.

They don't have to, and they don't want to stick to it for the Count of Loire.

The current situation is very dangerous for them, the besieging enemy plus Viscount Kewen is nearly three thousand, three times as many as them, if they hold on any longer, they may all face the danger of their lives.

After all, if Viscount Raul insists on going his own way, the possibility of them dying in battle is very high, and when the time comes, they will not be able to surrender and redeem themselves with ransom.

Viscount Raul closed his eyes, his helmet was worn on his head every day, and his gray sideburns were very conspicuous, and the years had left too many marks on him.

His family served the Loire family for more than 100 years, and began to follow the Loire family from the time when they only had the title of viscount, and was a real veteran nobleman among the vassals of the Loire family, and the Loire family also protected his family for more than 100 years.

The entanglement of feelings and interests in this is not something that can be explained simply, at least at this moment, he must be loyal to the earl.

Viscount Raul pulled the sword out of its sheath, and the sword was polished and shining in the sun, and the sword, which had barely seen blood since it was created, was finally fulfilling the meaning of his birth at this moment.

"My family has served the Loire family for more than a hundred years, and at the same time, I and the Count have been old friends for decades, the glory of my family, the loyalty of my family, are pinned on the Loire family, my friendship, my loyalty, my time, are also given to the Count of the Loire!"

"At the same time, the Loire family also gave me family glory, appreciated my family's loyalty, reciprocated my family's protection, made my family prosperous, and at the same time, the Count of Loire also reported to me friendship, and we have been with both sides for decades!"

Viscount Raul said these words in a hoarse voice, his expression was very solemn, and said: "You are my vassals, I have made a decision, I hope you can stick with me!" ”

After saying these words, Viscount Raul took the helmet in his hand, put it on his head, and went to gather all the knights to prepare to hold on to this high ground, and he was ready to die.

After he left, his vassals' faces suddenly became bitter, and they wanted to cry without tears, they didn't plan to be loyal to the earl, if they could, they didn't even want to be loyal to Viscount Raul, but there was no way, Viscount Raul's strength was stronger than them at this time.

If the two of them resisted, they would have been executed on the back of Viscount Raul first.

The Count of Loire looked at the high ground where Viscount Raul was located, his eyes were red, and Viscount Raul had the best relationship with him among all the vassals.

His family is also the most loyal of all the vassals, he really doesn't want to see Viscount Raul die, and he has a faint hope in his heart that Viscount Raul will surrender like this, because he is ready for defeat.
