Chapter 34: Infighting (Ask for Collections and Recommendations)
"You forced me, you forced me, if it weren't for you idiot, how would I have ended up in this field." Captain Brunckry clenched his blood-dripping sword in his hand and muttered to himself with a hideous face.
"I killed you for your own good, otherwise you would have everyone be buried together." The eyes of the mercenary leader of Brunckry gradually showed a determined look, squatted down and rummaged on the corpse of Knight Kenneth, and said to himself: "Yes, we must live, I want to sacrifice you all to His Royal Highness the great William, so that we can live, this is the meaning of your existence." ”
"Yes, I've finally found it." After groping around with Kenneth's body, the mercenary leader Brunckry finally found a few secret letters that Kenneth had kept close to him, and said with a look of surprise.
Before Commander Brunckry was happy, a close general ran over, with a little crying, and stumbled and said: "Commander Brunckry, my men are all dead, and only half of the brothers in the regiment are still alive, what should we do, Captain Brunckry, please think of a way." ”
Captain Brunckley didn't seem to be crushed by this bad news, but carefully put a few letters into his arms, turned around, and said calmly: "Calm down, Billy, quickly follow me to organize the warriors to turn back and attack this group of rebellious knights, and we will sacrifice our victory to His Highness the great William." ”
"I see, Captain Bruncray, we're not going to let go of any of those damn knights." The leader of the mercenaries, named Billy, didn't ask Bruncrey why he was attacking his former allies, and Billy was used to things like betrayal and backlash.
In just five minutes, the leader of the Brunckry mercenary group had already organized nearly two hundred mercenaries, who were armed with sharp weapons and hideous faces, as if they were fierce beasts that chose people to devour.
"Dear brethren, the abominable Kenneth and the knights have brought us untold calamities, and now they can only be redeemed and forgiven by His Highness William only by killing them all." Kenneth turned his head left and right, looked around at everyone, raised his sword in his right hand, and said in an excited tone: "Brothers, kill... ”
"Kill... ”
"Kill ... ”
Nearly two hundred mercenaries, led by the valiant Brunckley mercenary leader, raised their weapons and shouted at full speed while sprinting at full speed against the knights desperately defending William.
The knights had no idea that their allies behind them had betrayed them, and by the time they realized that the shouts of killing were getting closer, it was already too late, and less than two hundred soldiers and thirteen knights were pitiful sandwich biscuits.
The mercenaries slashed at the knights and their soldiers in the back with excited expressions, as if they could not be forgiven by His Highness William without killing them all.
......
On a hill not far from the battlefield, two knights, dressed in ornate burqas embroidered with the white eagle logo on a red background, rode their horses to the highest point to observe the battle situation on the battlefield.
One of the knights, who was older than the previous year, saw that the battle was not good for the rebels of the Knights' Independent Battalion, and was the first to hold his breath and said, "Sir Jonathan, are we just watching them be wiped out?" If we lead a hundred knights to storm William's rear camp, it will be enough for those knights to lead their troops to break out. ”
"Hehe... Tim, those knights are just one of the pawns I use to contain William, and it would not be a pity to give up such dispensable pawns, and it is not worth risking the precious Burgundian knights. Sir Jonathan, who was in the lead, said calmly with a nonchalant expression on his face and a wave of his hand.
"Sir Jonathan, have our plans all these days been in vain, and I am not reconciled." The young knight named Tim clenched his fists and said in an excited tone.
"Okay, okay, Tim, no matter how much the mongrel Ji Xiaomu jumps, he can't escape the net set up by His Highness Kayi." Sir Jonathan patted Tim on the shoulder with his right hand and said.
Sir Jonathan, with Knight Tim, who was in a somewhat lost mood, rode his horse and galloped towards the hundred knights hidden not far away, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "It's still too young." ”
Turning his gaze back to the battlefield in the wooden fort, at this moment, Sir Hubert led the knight legion to surround the nearly two hundred mercenary regiments that had surrendered on their knees, and took a step forward and said: "Commander Brunkray, although you and your mercenaries have fought back, they still have to be imprisoned as prisoners, and I am not sure whether I can get His Royal Highness William's forgiveness. ”
"Sir Hubert, please take me to His Royal Highness William, I have important things to hand over to William, and perhaps he will forgive me later." Captain Braunschweig knelt on the ground and said with a determined face.
"Okay, I can take you to meet His Highness William, but for His Highness William's safety, you can't carry any weapons, and you can't get within ten meters of His Highness William." Sir Hubert looked down at Captain Bruncre as he knelt on the ground, and said in an unquestioning tone.
"All as you command, Sir Hubert, I think His Highness William will be interested in what I have in my hands." Captain Braunschweig said in a firm tone.
Sir Hubert nodded and said nothing, turned to his fellow cavalrymen to register their exploits and supervise the army to clean up the battlefield, and then rode his horse and led some of the knights and the commander of Brunclay to the position of William's army outside the city.
Outside the wooden fort, in the position of William's direct legion, Steward Osborne shook his head slightly and sighed: "Your Highness William, although you have eliminated the knights and their army who are plotting to rebel this time, our military strength has also decreased by at least more than five hundred. If you had taken control of this army last night, our losses would have been much lighter. ”
"Steward Osborne, although the elimination of the rebels this time has greatly reduced our strength, after eliminating the rebellious knights, I will be able to confiscate the dozens of manor territories scattered throughout the Count of Evre. As long as I divide these estates among my fellow cavalrymen and my loyal knights, I will be in control of the county of Evre, not an ordinary county heir. William shook his head slightly, turned his head to look at Steward Osborne, and said in a firm tone.
"Since you have already made arrangements, we will not hesitate to carry out your will." Steward Osborne raised his head, looked at William, nodded and said, "However, Your Highness William, although you declared those knights treason and exterminated them, there is no direct written evidence, and we will have some trouble receiving their territory. ”
"Steward Osborne, don't worry, we'll get the documentary evidence." William said with a confident expression on his face and a relaxed tone.
