William rode back to the construction site of the wooden fort, by which time part of the main building and towers had already been built, and all that remained was the construction of the outer walls, moats, towers, and other defensive facilities.

This urgently built wooden fort was destined to be unable to accommodate William's 2,600 soldiers, 1,700 Evler conscripts, and more than 1,000 forcibly conscripted Ding Zhuang.

William had no choice but to make a choice, leaving more than 900 incapable Evler levies and more than 1,000 Ding Zhuang to take refuge in the nearby town of Mortagneopes.

The remaining 2,600 soldiers and more than 800 levies with a certain combat capacity will be the main force stationed at the wooden fort, plus a part of the baggage wagons and horses, although the castle has been built large enough, it is still very crowded.

On the construction site next to the main building, Osborne's butler was working with Faller, Daniel. Together, Bühler commanded a construction force of nearly 3,000 men, busily erecting the towers of the city walls, digging trenches and traps with a few shovels and pickaxes.

Riding his horse to the main building, Sir Hubert was busy dispatching the more than 2,600 soldiers to conduct defensive drills, preparing arrows, javelins, and stones to defend the castle.

After Sir Hubert had arranged many matters, William rode to Sir Hubert's side and said, "Sir Hubert, how is the morale of our soldiers, confident that they can hold the attacking horses of the Alençon army?" ”

"Your Highness William, there is no doubt about it, with our strong civil castle, we can fully resist the attack of more than 10,000 people, and if we can make good arrangements, we can also kill and injure a large number of enemy troops." Sir Hubert bowed and said with a confident expression.

"Sir Hubert, what are you going to do to kill the rebels well? After all, we're running out of time. William said with some concern in his heart.

"Your Highness William, this time I plan to show the enemy weakness first, lure the local area to attack the castle, and use the fortifications to kill and injure the enemy army to the greatest extent." Sir Hubert looked up at William, stroked his chest and saluted, and said: "If the enemy's losses are not serious, then he will lead a part of the army out of the city to line up, lure the enemy to attack, take advantage of the advantage of fighting under the city to kill and wound a large number of enemy troops, and then send cavalry to attack the enemy's flank and cause his army to break up, so that Your Highness can lead the soldiers to chase the defeated soldiers away smoothly." ”

"Sir Hubert, your plan is very thoughtful, and I have nothing to add, only one request, which is to kill and wound the enemy as much as possible, and create conditions for our army to attack the city." William pondered the plan for a moment, looked up at Sir Hubert, and smiled.

"Please rest assured, His Highness William." As he spoke, Sir Hubert bowed to William and said.

Bidding farewell to Sir Hubert, William led only ten of his companion cavalry into the main building for repairs, while the rest of the cavalry was also assigned to Sir Hubert under unified command.

Our army had only settled down, and the light cavalry spies in front reported that a light and heavy cavalry of about 100 men was attacking our army.

William could no longer resist the urge to command himself, and rode his horse to Sir Hubert.

At this time, Sir Hubert, who also received the news, immediately gathered two hundred light cavalry, one hundred heavy cavalry and one hundred and ten companion cavalry in the camp, and ordered Knight Rodrigo and Phale to lead nearly three hundred light and heavy cavalry to intercept the attacking local cavalry.

The one hundred and ten companion cavalry and the one hundred and seventy light and heavy cavalry of the Knights' Legion who remained in the camp were assembled by Sir Hubert to act as a rear guard against the rest of the enemy's cavalry troops.

"Sir Hubert, how's the matter going?" William rode his horse to a halt in front of Sir Hubert and said with a worried expression.

"Your Highness William, please don't worry, I have sent Knight Rodrigo and Faller with three hundred light and heavy cavalry to intercept the enemy's one hundred cavalry, they will never be able to defeat Knight Rodrigo." Sir Hubert replied with a relaxed expression.

"Whew," said William, exhaling softly, his face lightened, and said, "Thanks to you this time, you are so reliable, Sir Hubert." ”

"Your Highness William, this is what I should do, and I deserve your praise." Sir Hubert waved his hand and said modestly, but it was difficult to hide the pride on his face.

At this time, on the battlefield eight hundred meters away, according to the established tactics, Faller led two hundred light cavalry to speed up towards the enemy cavalry, ready to disrupt the formation of the enemy cavalry with javelin throwing, while the knight Rodrigo in the rear adjusted the formation unhurriedly and prepared to sprint.

In the face of a large number of menacing light and heavy cavalry, Knight Tim, the general of the Alençon coalition cavalry, also jumped in his eyelids, did not dare to touch the edge, and secretly regretted that he did not bring all the cavalry of the coalition army.

However, at this moment, the speed of the cavalry of both sides has been increased to the maximum, and no matter which side turns to retreat, it will be pursued by the other side, and the losses will be extremely heavy.

The cavalry on both sides were approaching at full speed, but the imaginary cavalry collision did not occur, and Faller and another knight each led a light cavalry to separate on both sides, throwing javelins around the cavalry led by Knight Tim, and constantly harassing the local front.

The knight of Tim, who was attacked by the javelins, only felt extremely aggrieved, except for more than a dozen Upper Burgundian knights in the cavalry he led, the rest were all mercenary cavalry, they were just some 'mounted infantry' wearing leather armor and chain mail.

After two rounds of javelin rain, a hundred heavy cavalry were already lined up in a double formation, raising the speed of their horses to the extreme and starting to charge with flat guns.

"The cavalry gave me a stand." Knight Tim led a dozen of his Burgundian knights to flee first, shouting something like let the mercenary cavalry resist.

When the mercenary cavalry, who were greedy for life and feared death, saw that their generals had abandoned them and ran away on their own, they turned their horses around and prepared to flee for their lives.

Unfortunately, it was too late, and the scattered mercenary cavalry became the focus of Faller and Rodrigo's attention, and the javelins rained down like a forest of cavalry for the final charge.

Rumble...

A hundred heavy cavalrymen with their rifles collided head-on with the scattered mercenary cavalry, and in an instant the mercenary cavalry was either pierced by the cavalry or trampled to death by the horseman, and the entire eighty or more mercenary cavalry were wiped out by William's cavalry.

"Faller, stop the pursuit and return to camp." Knight Rodrigo stopped Faller, who wanted to continue the pursuit, and said in a loud voice.

No matter how reluctant Faller was, he did not dare to disobey Rodrigo's orders, after all, Rodrigo was the commander of this cavalry, and his prestige was much higher than his.
