Mayor Scott, who ordered the killing of Sir Jonathan in a moment of excitement, also had a cold face, looked up at the Burgundian knights with hatred on their faces, and then ignored anything else, turned the horse's head and feet to spur the horse's belly, and fled towards Alençon City in embarrassment.

Mayor Scott's entourage, when they saw their master abandon them and flee, were also confused, and turned their horses to flee.

It's a pity that Sir Jonathan's confidant Tim Knight was furious at the moment, and his party wanted to avenge Sir Jonathan, so he waved his right hand and said loudly: "Knights, kill this group of traitors with me and avenge Sir Jonathan." ”

"Kill..."

Hearing Knight Tim's words, all the knights responded to Knight Time's call, drew their cavalry swords and slashed at Mayor Scott's retinue of cavalry.

These life-hungry town cavalry were no match for the well-trained and well-armed Upper Burgundian knights, and after only a few minutes of support, most of them were killed and wounded by the Upper Burgundian knights, while the rest scattered and fled.

Hastily cleaned up the battlefield, and the knight of Tim did not dare to stay longer, picked up the body of Sir Jonathan, turned and mounted his horse, and fled north with the Upper Burgundian knights.

Returning to the battlefield, William was chasing the rebel soldiers with more than 500 light and heavy cavalry, while some of the fish that slipped through the net behind him were responsible for the nearly 2,000 soldiers and levies who followed.

The heavy pressure had now completely dissipated with this victory, and William only felt that he had never felt so happy.

Seeing that the rebels in front of him had been completely defeated and had no strength to fight again, William did not want to make more efforts to chase and kill, so he turned his head and ordered the generals: "Tell the defeated soldiers in front of you to surrender on your knees and not kill, you must capture more prisoners, this will be useful to us." ”

"Yes, His Highness William."

All the generals nodded their heads and received the order, and each ordered the cavalry of their headquarters to surrender in all directions.

As the shouts of 'kneel down and surrender without killing' sounded endlessly, more than 2,000 town militiamen and hundreds of surviving mercenaries who were fleeing for their lives raised their hands and knelt on the ground.

William looked at this scene, smiled and nodded, and said to Sir Hubert on the side: "Sir Hubert, please leave it to you here, these captive soldiers will be collected and guarded by you, except for the hundred companion cavalry I took away, the rest of the four hundred or so light and heavy cavalry, including twenty companion cavalry, are under your command." ”

"Yes, His Highness William, leave it to me." Sir Hubert nodded, and bowed in agreement.

"Hmm..."

William nodded in response, turned his horse's head, and headed towards the Alençon rebel camp with a hundred of his companions.

The camp of the rebels of Alençon was not far from here, and it took a few moments to get to the camp on horseback.

At this moment, this vast Alençon rebel camp has been occupied by nearly 2,000 soldiers and levies led by Osborne's steward, and the hundreds of rebels who remained behind have also been easily annihilated.

"How's it going, Steward Osborne?" William rode up to Osborne's butler and asked.

"It's Young Master William" Steward Osborne heard William's call, reacted and said to William: "This camp has been controlled by us, the hundreds of defenders inside have been completely annihilated, and the grain, grass and ordnance stored here have not been damaged, all of them are well preserved. ”

"Thank you, Steward Osborne." William patted Osborne's butler's arm and said with a smile: "How is the harvest this time, how much grain, grass, ordnance, weapons and armor are there?" ”

"Back to Young Master William, there are countless gold coins, grains, grass, arrows, javelins, weapons and armor in this camp alone, which can be used for at least two thousand troops." Steward Osborne pondered for a moment and said, "As for the weapons and armor, gold, silver, and valuables on the battlefield, in addition to some of them going to the knights and soldiers, the remaining captured complete equipment can also be made up of about three thousand sets. ”

"Hmm." William touched his chin and thought, and said: "The weapons, armor, gold, silver, grain and grass of the five thousand soldiers are very good, and with these, our strength will be greatly improved." ”

"Yes, His Highness William!" Steward Osborne nodded in response, "It's just that we don't have enough territory for us to develop our strength. ”

"Don't worry at all, Steward Osborn, the Barony of Alençon will be under our control after this battle, not to mention that Uncle Robert will give me another piece of the Barony." William replied with a smile on his face and a nod.

"It would be great if that were the case, His Highness William." Steward Osborne immediately smiled with satisfaction when he heard this, and couldn't help but start chattering: "If we had these two territories, we would have a foothold." In Rouen, we have no land under our control, except for five or six small estates, where it is inconvenient for us to do anything. ”

"Yes, steward Osborne, I think that after this rebellion was crushed, most of the land estates in the Barony of Alençon were left ownerless." William nodded and replied with a smile, "The Barony of Alençon is a large barony with hundreds of large and small estates (1,500 acres for the large, 500-600 acres for the smallest), and more than 400 square kilometers (more than 100,000 acres) of terra nullius for those public lands. And that's not counting the baronies that Uncle Robert wanted to bestow, and I think there are dozens of estates anyway. ”

Seeing William's appearance as a wealth obsessive, Steward Osborne had to interrupt: "Young Master William, you better think about how to capture Alençon City first, otherwise you may be taken advantage of by Baron Argenthon." ”

"Peace of mind, peace of mind, Steward Osborne." William patted Osborne's butler on the shoulder, and said confidently: "Don't we have an internal response in Alençon City, and when the time comes, just let him persuade the rebels in Alençon City to open the city and surrender." ”

"It's not going to be as easy as we think, Master William." Steward Osborne shook his head slightly and said.

"Hey, hey! As long as we lead our army to besiege the city of Alençon, we will not be afraid that they will not give in. William said confidently: "Steward Osborne, you still leave some soldiers here to take care of the prisoners and supplies, as for the other soldiers to assemble first, today I will take the city of Alençon." ”

"As you command, His Highness William." Steward Osborne bowed and nodded.

Under William's command, within an hour Sir Hubert and Steward Osborne had placed the prisoners and supplies in the care of three hundred soldiers and five hundred levies, and had assembled an army of more than two thousand men for a tentative assault on Alençon.
