Chapter 35: The Death of Braunschweig

Sir Hubert rushed out of the wooden fort with several companion cavalrymen and more than twenty heavy cavalry, and galloped towards the main camp of His Highness William.

"Commander Braunschweig, before His Highness William, you'd better tell me anything you know about the rebels in Alençon. If you have any concealment, you will be put to death without mercy. In the procession, Sir Hubert looked at Captain Braunschweig with a serious face and said.

"Sir Hubert, I understand what you mean, and I will know everything about His Highness William's questions." Captain Brunckley, whose hands were tightly tied, sat down on his horse with difficulty, followed Sir Hubert, and said in a serious tone.

Manage...

After a while, Sir Hubert came to William, turned over and dismounted, stroked his chest, and said: "Your Highness, the characters you have explained and the completion of the current 26 knights in the rebel army have been completely killed, and the surviving knight rebel soldiers are less than 100, in addition to the capture of the Captain of the Mercenary Regiment of the Wooden Castle General Braunschweig and his two hundred mercenaries. ”

"Sir Hubert, thank you for your hard work, but you have brought me great news this time." William laughed, looked at Sir Hubert softly, and said with a cheerful expression.

"His Royal Highness William, these are all things I should do." Sir Hubert shook his head slightly, and said modestly: "Your Highness William, this time I have brought the commander of the mercenary group of the city guard, Braunschweig, and I heard him say that he has something very important on him that he wants to hand over to you. ”

"Well, let him hand over his things to his fellow cavalry and hand them over to me, and he himself must stay twenty meters away." William nodded and instructed Sir Hubert.

"As you command, His Highness William." So saying, Sir Hubert took the order and left.

After a while, after searching through layers to confirm that there was no sharp weapon hidden, the head of Brunchray was taken ten meters away in front of William, although at this moment Brunchwick's hands were firmly tied and there was no power to resist, but William did not risk approaching him.

William took the envelope from the hands of his fellow knights, looked through it and said, "Oh! The secret letter from Kay and Agen Don Richard, yes, yes, tell me what kind of reward you want? ”

"Dear Highness William, I hope that His Highness will forgive me and my brothers for the crimes of them, and that we will have the opportunity to fight for you." Head Braunschweig knelt down on one knee and said with a seeming sincerity.

"Wanting my forgiveness and fighting for me isn't enough to impress me." William flicked the letter in his hand, a look of dissatisfaction in his eyes. He looked up at Braunschweig and said.

"Your Highness William, I have received very important news that nearly a hundred Upper Burgundian knights wearing white eagle robes on a red background have entered and exited Alençon City these days." Captain Braunschweig nodded, pondered for a moment, and said.

"Oh? Upper Burgundian knights of Kay, tell me how many of them have come, and I want a more exact number. William interrupted loudly with an interested look on his face.

"His Royal Highness William, this news was told to me by the way by the villain's close friend who came from Alençon City, he estimated that there were about one hundred and fifty cavalry, and I am not sure if the number will be said these days." Captain Braunschweig nodded, knowing everything.

Hearing this, William breathed a sigh of relief, for the Earl of Kay, who might send troops at any time, William was always vigilant, after hearing that there were only about one hundred and fifty cavalry, William breathed a sigh of relief, and said: "Tell me the deployment of troops in Alençon City, and tell me everything you know." ”

"Your Highness William, please forgive us for our sins in advance, I am willing to lead the two hundred mercenaries under my command to fight for you, and I also have some connections in Alençon City to get some information for you." Braunschweig, perhaps trying to use this information as a bargaining chip to blackmail William, looked up at William and said confidently.

Hearing this, William couldn't help frowning, lowered his head and looked gloomy and terrifying, muttered for a moment, raised his head and nodded with a smile on his face, and said, "Commander Braunschweig, I agree to your request, as long as you tell you the information you know, I will forgive you and let you join the army." ”

"You are a merciful Highness, and we are willing to serve you." Captain Braunschweig stood up, smiled and bowed, "As far as I know, the rebels of Alençon have joined forces with Count Kay and Baron Richard, and they have all sent knights to Alençon to help in the battle, estimated at two or three hundred people. Now the city of Alençon is very well enlarged, with at least 8,000 soldiers in the city, including more than 3,000 mercenaries like me, and 4,500 militia of citizens and peasants, and although I do not know the various armies of the main roads and towns outside the city, it is certain that the size of the army has at least doubled. ”

"Well, Commander Brunswick, the information you gave us is very useful, I can give you the position of infantry company leader and let you command the original mercenaries." William smiled and nodded, whispering promises.

"Thank you, Your Highness William, it's my honor to serve you." Captain Braunschweig smiled and bowed.

"Go, go and gather your army." William waved his right hand and said.

"Then I will take my leave, His Highness William." As he spoke, Captain Braunschweig stroked his chest and bowed.

Looking at the back of Captain Braunschweig leaving, William's face immediately fell, cloudy, and his eyes were speechless with a look of disgust.

"Go, send him on his way." William looked around and whispered to a few Norman Javelin Cavalrymen beside him.

Woooo Woooo

The six javelinmen on the left and right sped up and threw javelins at Commander Braunschweig in two.

With the perception skills honed by years of battlefield experience, Commander Braunschweig sensed the approaching danger behind him, and immediately turned around and raised his hand in an attempt to block the attack.

It is a pity that after all, two fists are invincible to four hands, and Braunschweig, who has no weapon with him, has a strong force to open two throwing guns, and unfortunately is hit in the chest by four throwing guns one after another.

Puff ... Puff ...

Braunschweig's eyes widened, and his body slowly fell backwards with confusion and hatred in his eyes.

One of the Javelin hussars rode to Braunschweig's side, and after checking to confirm that he was dead, he rode to William's side and replied: "Your Highness William, my subordinates are fortunate to have not been dishonored, and the enemy has been ambushed. ”

William's face showed an irrepressible expression of joy, and the depression of being threatened by Braunschweig was swept away, and he waved his hand at the hussars on the side and said, "Well, go down." ”
