The barbarians continued to gather on the south side of Hwaseong, and the people in the city were so frightened that they gathered near the city walls to watch the battle, and rumors spread and people were panicked. In the dense crowd, Simon stood motionless, he had not left since the bandits first arrived.

Originally, I thought that these bandits would leave immediately if they just came to make trouble, but I didn't expect that this time the bandits would be so organized and purposeful, which caused Hwaseong to fall into a crisis. What I didn't expect was that Betty's appearance and her calm performance suddenly loosened Simon's belief in death.

In Simon's eyes, the ferocity of the barbarians is similar to the greed and corruption of the old nobles of the kingdom, especially after the kingdom withered and the gods fell, and more crude phenomena made Simon completely disappointed in Knight, Simon could not see any hope, so Simon finally chose to retreat to the mountains and forests and not ask about the world.

But now in front of his eyes, an 11-year-old girl's amazing performance against the army of bandits, this kind of thing seems to Simon as a myth and unreality, but the fact is happening right under his nose, Simon's heart begins to rise and fall.

The world only knows that there is an outstanding little Betty in Hwaseong, but they forget the inactive Duke Mozart. When Simon saw Betty's prowess with his own eyes, he began to understand why everyone remembered that there was a Betty in Hwaseong, because this young girl was truly extraordinary.

Simon stood here, staring at the skinny body on the wall, as if waiting for Betty to perform more miracles.

A guard rode towards the onlookers, shaking the Hwaseong flag in his hand vigorously as he ran, and kept shouting loudly: "The bandits are coming, Hwaseong is in an emergency, all those who can make bows and arrows will be assembled on the east side, and all those who can use swords and spears will be assembled on the west side." Dear people of Hwaseong, please actively participate in the defense of Hwaseong, once Hwaseong falls, our entire city will be slaughtered by bandits. ”

The guards shouted dryly, but the people were stunned and did not make any movement, which made the guards so anxious that they did not know what to do.

Just when the guards were helpless, Simon was the first to come out, he saluted the guards and said, "I am Simon of Reesburg, I have my own weapons and horses, please give me a set of armor, I am the knight of Hwaseong today." ”

When he finally saw someone come forward, the guard was overjoyed, nodded and said, "Okay, no problem, please bring your horses and weapons, and then go to the west side to line up." ”

Simon nodded, turned away from the crowd, and went to the inn to lead the horse and get his weapon.

By the time Simon returned to the city walls, it was already busy, and countless people had come forward with Simon, forming two small teams at the foot of the city walls.

When the guard handed Simon the familiar Knight armor, Simon slowly turned on the armor, thousands of thoughts kept surging, and his blood began to boil slowly in his physical strength.

Suddenly, a column of guards came in formation, shouting slogans, and marching in order, standing in two columns in front of Simon.

Simon was a little surprised, he looked up, and saw the little noble girl at the head of the city walking briskly, followed by her brother Salas and the head of the guard.

The aristocratic little girl walked directly to Simon, stared at Simon and asked, "Are you really Lord Simon, Lord Illit's civil officer?" What is the proof? ”

He is Simon himself, and this has to be proven. Simon was shocked when he heard this, and felt that this girl was not ordinary cautious.

Simon turned over and stepped on the horse, waved the spear in his hand casually, and then replied quietly: "Yes or no, after going out of the city with the bandits in a while, you can see the spear in my hand." ”

Little Betty smiled, and she stared at Simon as if she wanted to see through him.

Salas was very impulsive, and he roared, "Fart, who said to go out of the city and fight the bandits?" If you dare to spread rumors again, I will kill you. ”

Hearing Salas say this, Betty turned her head sharply, stared at Salas and ordered: "Shut up, you immediately go to the Duke's Palace to urge the guards to prepare instruments and arrows, and don't talk nonsense to me here!" ”

Salas glanced at Betty and said very unhappily, "I've been there, and it was my mother who asked me to come and see you." ”

Betty glared at Salas for a few seconds, then turned to Simon and said, "Lord Simon's resolute posture cannot be imitated by others. I believe you, please Simon-sama temporarily replace me as the commander of the Hwaseong Knight army, please! ”

Simon was stunned when he heard this, he just wanted to contribute to the defense of Hwaseong as an ordinary knight, but he didn't expect Betty to rely on herself so much and let herself be the commander of the knights.

Of course, this kind of thing came out of Betty's mouth, and it was not immediately executed. At least Salas was 10,000 opposed, and he rebuked Betty and said, "Sister, you're crazy, is he Simon who knows, how do you do things so recklessly?" ”。

Betty took a few steps back and said without looking back, "If Lord Salas doubts Lord Simon's identity, then ask Lord Simon to give him a few tricks to convince him." ”

After hearing the unceremonious strategic, Simon took a few steps forward, pointed his gun at Salas and said, "Come on! ”

Salas was instantly shocked by Simon's momentum, he took a few steps back, and said in a panic: "What are you doing, you are really here." Aren't you crazy, the bandits are just outside the city, how can you have the kung fu to play any duels, are you all insane? ”

At this time, Betty suddenly roared: "You also know that the bandits are outside, so what are you doing here?" If you want to contribute to Hwaseong, go back to the Duke's Palace immediately to arrange for the transportation of materials, otherwise you will get out of here. ”

Everyone looked at Super Salas and was so shocked that Salas couldn't answer for a while. Usually Betty rarely gets angry, and her father will consult Betty if she has questions, and Betty can't be provoked by anyone in the flower city. Salas didn't dare to say anything, so he walked away.

Betty lazily ignored Salas and announced directly to the guards: "Everyone, listen, from now on, this Lord Simon from Reesburg is the commander of our Hwaseong Knight Army. When you see Lord Simon, if you see my father, Duke Mozart, you must not disobey anything, or you will be hanged. ”

After saying that, Betty bowed slightly to Simon, and immediately left with the guards.

Simon watched Betty leave in a daze, and the turmoil in his heart could not be calmed for a long time, he was shocked by this young girl, and the majesty revealed from Betty made him unforgettable in his life.

The chief guard rode his horse close to Simon, saluted very respectfully and asked, "Commander Simon, what should we do next, please give orders." ”

Simon immediately came to his senses, he drove his horse and turned around, and said loudly to the people who were watching from the sidelines: "Brothers and sisters, uncles and aunts in Hwaseong, the army of bandits is still gathering, and everyone knows what they want to do. The fire in the royal capital, I believe that you all know it without me saying more. If you don't want Hwaseong to become the second destroyed royal capital, please take up the weapons in your hands, listen to my Simon's orders, and never let those bandits succeed. ”

Simon's words are obviously more appealing, and the fact that the king was burned down is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and there is no one who does not hate it to the core. Simon's words caused a sensation among the people, and the people shouted slogans to kill the bandits, and all of them took action and rushed to join in the defense of Hwaseong.

Seeing this warm scene, the chief of the guard said with emotion: "You are definitely Lord Simon himself, I can't accept it, Lord Commander." ”

Simon replied, "I, Simon, am Simon, and there is no need to lie." Arrange your men at once and move your weapons, armor, and bows, as well as all kinds of defensive equipment, to the side of the city walls as quickly as possible. In addition, arrange a team of people to collect all the horses in the city, including those who pull wagons and noble carriages, as long as they are horses, and move quickly. ”

"Yes!" After the chief guard answered, he immediately turned around and instructed the guards to start moving.

After more than two hours of emergency action, a contingent of 3,000 improvised knights lined up neatly under the city walls, and 5,000 improvised archers were dispatched to the various city heads. Seeing the people of Hwaseong moving so quickly, Simon had to admire the influence of the Duke of Hwaseong's Palace, which was much better than the situation of the Duke of Illett's Reesburg.

Simon improvised a few strong knights to serve as the chief knights, and appointed the chief of the guard and the deputy head of the knights of Hwaseong to be responsible for teaching the patchwork knights, and he dismounted and climbed the city wall.

Seeing Simon appear in the city, Betty immediately asked, "How's the preparation, Lord Simon?" ”

Simon didn't answer in a hurry, he first glanced at the bandits in the south of the city, and then replied: "The archers composed of 5,000 people have been arranged at the head of the city, and the knights composed of 3,000 people have also been put in place, and almost all the horses in Huacheng have been collected. ”

After listening to this, Betty said with a smile on her face: "Lord Simon of Reesburg is indeed worthy of his reputation. Look at these bandits, is there any good way to deal with them? ”

Simon replied, "In my experience, this formation is really not small, at least 10,000 bandits. However, Hwaseong was well walled, the city was well stocked, and the people were enthusiastic, so the battle was not a threat to Hwaseong. ”

"Hmm!" Betty nodded and said, "More than an hour ago, I was worried that there would be something wrong with Hwaseong, but now with the help of Lord Simon, our Hwaseong is impregnable." However, this group of bandits doesn't take our Huacheng seriously, and just sticking to the city may not have any deterrent effect. Didn't Lord Simon say earlier that you were going to open the city gate and go out to fight the bandits, how did you plan this? ”

Simon smiled and said, "That's what I said about fighting to the death with the bandits, and now that we have enough men, there is no need to take such a risk." ”

Betty glanced at Simon, and she sneered: "The so-called wealth is in danger, if I don't go through a bloody battle to show the dignity of my Huacheng, my Huacheng can prevent a group of bandits today, and other provocateurs will come tomorrow, so won't my Huacheng become a laughing stock for being bullied?" ”

Simon was taken aback when he heard this, he didn't expect this young Betty to think so far-reachingly, her thinking was by no means as simple as a girl, and she looked more like the second leader of Hwaseong. Simon asked, "Lord Betty, if that's the case, then we should really start a battle, and the bandits we must kill will be ruined." Otherwise, if you just draw or lose with the bandits, not only will it not have any effect, but it will plunge Hwaseong into a crisis, you have to think about it clearly. ”

Betty replied calmly: "Our Hwaseong is just like us Knight, we have no way out in front of the barbarians but to resist, and now we Hwaseong is the same in front of these bandits. There is no need to think about this kind of thing, how can those who are afraid of wolves and tigers be able to gain a foothold in the world. ”

Betty's firmness was beyond Simon's expectations, but he didn't expect that the truth that the dukes didn't understand came out of the mouth of this young girl, which shocked Simon. Simon knew that the girl in front of him was extraordinary, and Knight was the only one in hundreds of years, and Simon was extremely excited in front of her, and the desire to fight was ignited in his heart.

Simon raised the spear in his hand and saluted, "If this is the case, then without further ado, we must attack the barbarians before they have finished gathering, so that we can take them by surprise." ”

"That's exactly what I wanted!" After speaking, Betty reached out and grabbed the hilt of the sword at her waist, turned to the side and said, "Let's go, I will lead the army with Lord Simon to kill the enemy." ”

Simon's face turned pale with surprise when he heard this, and he was about to say something, but Betty walked quickly, and in a blink of an eye she walked into the steps of the city wall.

Simon hurried to follow, his mind racing with horror that he wondered if the young Betty was a fool or if she was too strong to accept.
