On the same day, the king's order was issued, and the whole royal capital suddenly fell into a bustle, all kinds of logistical supplies began to be loaded, and the people were panting to load the goods, and then the carriages set off from the royal capital.

The soldiers also began to assemble, the knights were concentrated in the palace, and the king's appointed general Yusen was waiting in the palace.

"Dear General Yousen, please thwart the enemy's onslaught, and hold Laughlinburg in time to support the Count of Loire, so that we can break the pressure on us from the Kingdom of Riborn and the Church!"

The two looked at each other, and General Youssen saw hope and trust in King Brolin's eyes.

"Thank you for your trust, Your Majesty the King, I will definitely complete the task you have given, and the Holy Father will bless the Kingdom of Tskema!"

General Youssen said impassionedly, this is the loyalty of an old courtier who supported King Brolin when he was an old king.

"Good!" King Brolin smiled, then turned his gaze to the two hundred knights in the palace hall.

"Knights! The kingdom and the church of Riborn want to take advantage of the confrontation between the Duchy of Bunkerson and us to seek their interests again! ”

"This is unforgivable! If they succeed, not only will the majesty of the Kingdom of Tskema and the crown be damaged, but you will also be affected! ”

"You will give a portion of your income to the Church, and if you all lead the people to sin, they will not be judged by you, but to the Church courts!"

"But if you can assist the Count of Loire in defending Brooklinburg, the enemy will give up these conditions, and the majesty of the kingdom of Tzkma remains!"

"Fight, fight! For the dignity of the kingdom, for the majesty of King William, for your own good, fight hard! ”

After the king's words were spoken, the knights responded almost simultaneously: "Fight! ”

The other court nobles in the palace hall were also enthusiastic about listening, although they were not traditional nobles who had been trained in combat since childhood.

But after hearing these words, it also aroused the blood in my heart, isn't the court nobles who spend money or go to the relationship without a fief not a noble? They also had a heart of allegiance to the king.

Although they could not go to the battlefield, it was believed that after a while, the king's speech would be spread and increase the king's prestige.

"Get ready to go, your supply team has already set off a long time ago, help me and hold Laughlinburg!"

King Brolin looked at General Yousen and said.

At this time, the troops of the Kingdom of Ribone also entered the range of Laughlinburg from all directions, and the size of the troops was too large to pay for the logistical supplies needed by the troops.

The only way to maintain the combat effectiveness of the troops was to get local supplies in the villages, so their army was divided into dozens of small units commanded by nobles, and began to disperse, waiting for the city of Laughlinburg to start gathering again, which was exactly what William had planned.

Nearly 10,000 troops were scattered, and there were not many of them, and as for the enemy's knightly troops, they had enough logistical supplies to follow their commander leisurely.

"Lord Earl, the enemy has entered the range of Laughlinburg, but they will soon enter the area of the fortress because they cannot be supplied nearby!"

A herald walked into the town hall and said.

"Very good, Baron William, this time you will lead the team and lead the knights to move between the fortresses and fight the enemy's forces, but if you encounter a large group of enemies, don't fight them, you can retreat first!"

The Earl handed the team to William and admonished him.

"Sir Wejo, we have not found any inhabitants in the nearest villages, and we are running out of supplies, but on the map, there is a manor three kilometers ahead, I don't know if it has also been captured by the enemy!"

A soldier in a blue cross smock walked up to a knightly garment like him and said with a humble expression.

"Then go forward, the warriors of the Holy Father also need the provision of worldly food, and if the place has been occupied by the enemy, then we will take it for a long time!"

The knightly figure said to the soldier before him, the team looked to be about a hundred and twenty people, uniformly dressed in a blue cross smock, and holding a weapon similar to the European halberd of William's previous life.

And beside this ecclesiastical knight, there are also three knights dressed similarly to him, this is the papal guard sent by the Church.

There are more than 2,000 people in the papal guard, all of whom are elite soldiers in battle, and there are more than 400 guardian knights, which are different from ordinary churches and local knights.

They are similar to a kind of ascetics, they are all trained by the Church, they are loyal to the Church and the Pope, they are extremely devout to the Holy Father, they do not need the mining that the worldly knights need, their only logistical needs are food, not even salaries.

In William's previous life, he was a proper religious fanatic, and it is estimated that they would have no objection to let them be human bombers.

The inhabitants of Laughlinburg were sad during this time, because their possessions were concentrated and the population of the village was brought into the city by the Denlenburgers.

As a direct result, the environment in the city began to be crowded, wealth was lost, and all the cooking oil and other things in their homes were taken away by the people of Denglenburg.

There were also all kinds of craftsmen, blacksmiths, carpenters, accountants and tailors, including literate people, who were arrested by the people of Denlenburg.

It was all William's idea, there were too few literate people in his territory, and as the size of his army grew, he urgently needed a group of military judges, and the soldiers from the serfs were simply not up to the task.

Moreover, the income and income in his territory are increasing, and the accountant and all kinds of talents are very scarce, so for the credit of William's achievements, the earl agreed to William's request and concentrated these talents.

At this time, William had already led the knight and his heavy cavalry out of Laughlinburg and rested at the first fortress.

The distance between the forts is not far, the longest is only more than 30 kilometers, even if the war horse is a labor-saving march, it only takes more than an hour to reach the next fortress.

"Damn it! This manor has indeed been captured by the enemy, so attack me immediately and take this place back from the enemy! ”

With that, he put on his helmet and began to order the papal guards below to begin an assault on the manor.

The momentum of their attack was very fierce, after all, it was the Popal Guard, which was very experienced in combat, and soon put the soldiers inside into a bitter battle.

However, defending a fortress is not the same as attacking a fortress, and although the walls were lost early, the main fort of the manor remained under the control of the soldiers.

The narrow gate cost the papal guard a dozen men, but it was still unable to conquer it, which was the power of the main fortress at the expense of space in exchange for defensive power.
