Chapter XXVII

"What's going on?" William asked, glancing at the soldiers with a stern gaze.

"Lord Sir, they were the first to pick it up! They are jealous of our gear, sneering, and want to snatch it! Koko said, pointing to the light infantry on the other side.

"Is that so?" William turned to look at the group of light infantry and asked in a cold voice.

That group of light infantry is just a momentary ghost, but a group of serfs drawn out of the light infantry, what kind of courage can they have, in the face of William's questioning, they have long been trembling, and they will admit it one by one immediately.

Just then, another knight walked in, "Sir Mann, are you here with your soldiers?" William asked.

"Yes Sir William, what's going on here?" Sir Mann looked to the ground, and several of the fallen light infantry caught his eye.

"That's right......" William recounted to Sir Mann what had happened.

When Sir Mann heard this, his face turned slightly red, and he scolded his soldiers, "Damn it, don't you know shame? To do such a thing! ”

After the reprimand, he turned around and said to William apologetically: "I'm sorry Sir William, it's me who disciplined them too leniently, and I will definitely teach them a good lesson!" ”

William saw that Mann had expressed enough sincerity at the end of the day, and reprimanded the soldiers who caused trouble, William did not continue to say anything out of the consideration of uniting his comrades, but said: "It's okay Sir Mann, I accept your apology, as long as there is no next time." ”

"That's great, then I'll go Sir William first!" Sir Mann said, leading his twenty or so light infantry to more remote corners, as if he were still reprimanding them.

William looked at the remaining seventy or so soldiers, and it seemed that Sir Mann was not alone in a conflict with William's soldiers.

However, the war was imminent, and they were colleagues, so it was not easy to make the relationship too stiff, so William planned that as long as they sincerely apologized, he would not pursue anything.

Then three more knights came, and when they learned what had happened, they all apologized and reprimanded their light infantry.

But one of them, William could clearly feel that he had no sincerity.

This man was officially Baron Comos's nephew, Duncan. Comos, in the past two years, Baron Comos has held many small banquets, and William gradually got acquainted with these knights, and even got to know the person of Bang Ken.

This person actually doesn't have a good relationship with other knights, maybe he has a natural temperament and character, and he doesn't like people, giving William a sinister feeling, so William is not too familiar with him, but he can only say a few words.

The man apologized with no sincerity, simply saying that his men had done something wrong, and the apology was very casual, and then left the camp without paying attention to his light infantry.

Although William didn't like it, he was the baron's nephew after all, and he was a comrade-in-arms on the battlefield in the future, so William didn't continue to pursue it, but felt a little unhappy.

"I don't like this guy!" He was straight and said directly to William.

"Well, I think so too, he's too arrogant and gives people a sinister feeling, anyway, I kind of hate him!" Norwin chimed in.

William also felt the same way, and said: "Me too, but don't express it too obviously, after all, he is our comrade-in-arms and the nephew of Lord Baron, just alienate him in the future!" ”

The two nodded in agreement and did not say anything more, and then William said to the soldiers behind him, "Soldiers! You guys are doing a great job! Anyone who dares to provoke us, crush them! Chop off his head! But today they are our comrades-in-arms, and we want to avoid disputes! But if they deliberately provoke, we also want to give them a taste of our fists. ”

"Oh!" The soldiers replied loudly.

"Alright, disband, rest well!" William commanded, and walked outside

"I was scared to death, I thought I was going to be whipped today!"

"yes, yes, I didn't expect adults to blame us"

"Of course, we are the soldiers of adults, and we will not be punished if we don't take the initiative to make mistakes!" That's what Kev said.

William gradually walked away, heard the discussion behind him, and a smile leaked from the corner of his mouth, he said that this is exactly what he meant, and the combat effectiveness of soldiers who are afraid of things will not be strong.

When the three of them left the camp, they happened to meet a man dressed as a manservant, and when they saw the three of them, they were obviously overjoyed, and they bent down and said, "Three lords, the baron has held a banquet in the hall, please attend, and I will guide the way."

William and the three followed the manservant, and although they knew the road to the hall with ease, it was a kind of etiquette to guide the manservant.

Arriving at the door, the manservant respectfully said, "The hall has arrived, adults, please come in." ”

The three of them nodded slightly, pushed the door and walked into the hall.

When William entered the hall, he found that there were not many people, except for the two knights who had clashed with William's men before, and the nephew and son of the baron, only Yasuo was here.

Sir Yasuo had a good impression on William, he was a very upright person, with a good character, and he was also very experienced in receiving people and things, and he was quite popular among the dozen knights, and he also had the best relationship with him except for Norwen Limu.

When William and the three of them entered the door, they were discovered by Sir Yasuo, and greeted him very naturally: "Oh, Sir William, Sir Norwen, Sir Urimu, you are here!" ”

The three of them smiled and nodded in return, although the baron's son Valoran had warned William, but under William's deliberate repair, the relationship between the two was better, of course, William's ability also softened Valoran's attitude a lot.

Baron Comos, looking up, nodded, and motioned for the three of them to sit down.

As for the baron's nephew, Duncan, as if he hadn't seen them, he didn't raise his eyes, and played with the wooden cup in his hand.

Seeing Duncan's attitude, he was obviously a little unhappy, like slapping the table, but before he could act, he was stopped by William with his clothes and signaled with his eyes that he couldn't.

Nowen had the same attitude, shaking his head and telling him not to react so violently.

Sir Yasuo saw that the scene was a little embarrassed, and started a round: "What's going on?" Why haven't these people come yet? Did poop miss time? Huh, William? ”

However, his joke was obviously not popular with everyone, and the scene was very awkward for a while, only William said "um".

Just then, footsteps came from outside the door, and a valet rushed to the hall to report, "Lord Baron, the other adults have arrived." ”

Baron Comos nodded, the valet withdrew, and in a few seconds, the other knights arrived in the hall, not noticing the awkward atmosphere at all, and greeted the knights.

William nodded in return and did not speak.

Now there was nothing on the table but a wooden cup in front of no one, and everyone knew that the baron had something to say, so they all looked at him.

The baron knocked on the table, glanced at the crowd, and said, "I guess you don't know why we gathered this time!" ”

Everyone nodded and did not speak, waiting for the Baron's next words.

The baron continued: "The Count of Loire has received news that the Ceckels are going to invade the Count's territory next month, and Viscount Raul has also received a summoning order, so we have also been summoned, which is why I have summoned you this time, we need to fight the Cekel people. ”

Everyone's faces were solemn for a while.

"These heretics are not easy to deal with!" Sir Yasuo said first.

"Of course I know it's hard to deal with, but it's our obligation!" Baron Comos said.

"So, what about our territory, and what if the Baron of Wales invades while we're on our way?" That's what Sir Mann said.

"Viscount Curvin will also be in the battle, and he has also received a summoning order, and of course Baron Wells will follow! Baron Comos replied.

"Alright, sir, we have nothing to say"

"No comments? All right! We will definitely defeat the Checkers! Baron Comos encouraged.

"Oh!" The knights responded with a roar.

"But!" Baron Comos knocked on the table: "You must observe the form of the battlefield carefully, and you must not break away from the knight team when charging!" Do you understand? I don't want to lose any of you! ”

"Especially you!" Baron Comos said to the sons of the knights who died fighting Baron Comos two years ago

The two immature teenagers who were not yet as old as William nodded firmly.

"Good! Then, the feast begins! With Baron Comos's order, various dishes were served on the table.

For two years, William had not adapted to the diet, bacon, raw cabbage, boiled and mashed apples, white bread, and meat of more than any living thing.

William hated these things, especially the raw cabbage and rotten apples, and was also drunk, so William ate only white bread and meat.

After resting in the manor for the night, the next morning the people began to assemble and prepare the baggage, and when it was ready, the baggage food alone, plus the knights' armor, riding spears, swords, and shields.

William's three men rode on horses, followed by the servants on foot, they did not pull horses, only war horses, war horses need to be ridden on the battlefield, and the riding commander wastes his horsepower here.

Moreover, the knight's war horse here is a cold-blooded horse, just like the Hetona in William's memory in the previous life, endurance and speed are not good, the only advantage is that he has great strength and tall body, and it is a perfect match for the knight to be a war horse.

As for William's previous war horse, he had already given his subordinates, and then bought war horses for other servants one by one, William's current war horse was not as good as the horse under his crotch when he marched on weekdays.

William didn't put on his equipment, but his soldiers were fully armed, especially the thirty-eight soldiers, no, they should be called armed infantry.

The queue was neat, the body was strong, and they looked energetic when they carried William's specially customized spears, which were much more intimidating than the light infantry under the others, who held spears of more than two meters
