Section 51: Arold's Mobility (2nd Update)
When Herman. www.biquge.info When Billon was blocked out of the wetlands by the people in the radar, Arold was not in Mecklenburg, and when the vassal's army left, Arold immediately set up all the cavalry in Mecklenburg.
"What are you going to do, Lord Duke?" Dylan. Matt asked, puzzled.
"I will lead the cavalry on the march, and you and Brother Elvet will assist my wife in the administration of Mecklenburg." Arold mounted his horse and put on his armor and faced Dylan. Matt and Brother Elvet said.
"Arold." Didn't wait for Dylan. Matt and Brother Elvet replied, and Princess Josie ran out of the castle's vestibule door, shouting as she lifted her skirt.
"Josie, my wife." Arold said calmly to his wife.
"Arrod, isn't the vassal's army already set off? Why do you even want to lead the army yourself? Puzzled, Princess Josie came to Arold's side and asked her husband.
"I have another mission, Josie will take care of our home in my place." Arold looked at his beautiful and elegant wife and said to Princess Josie.
"If you're going on a campaign, take me with you, I don't want to part with you." Princess Josie frowned slightly, stepped forward and grabbed the reins of Arrod's mount, and said to him.
"Don't be willful, you are the regent of the Duchy of Mason, and the Duchess of Mecklenburg, you have to fulfill your lordship responsibilities in my place when I am away, and protect our homeland and Little William." Arold sighed, bent down to take Princess Josie's hand, and whispered in her ear.
"I~." Princess Josie was speechless when she heard it, but there were tears in her eyes and a pitiful look, which made Arrod feel distressed, in order to protect the homeland of Mecklenburg, Arold often needed to lead troops outside, although it was not to talk about snubbing Princess Josie, but in an era when all this was uncertain, maybe a separation is forever.
"Be obedient, little bunny, I'll come back with a gift." Arold smiled softly at Princess Josie and said to her.
"Yes." Princess Josie knew that Arold must have something to do, and she closed her eyes slightly and lifted her chin, pursing her rosy lips.
"Huh." Arold looked at Princess Josie like a little girl in love for the first time, and couldn't help but smile knowingly, as if returning to the time when he first saw Princess Josie, he leaned down from his horse and kissed Princess Josie on the lips.
"Arrod, I will light a candle in the prayer room every day and pray for your safe return." Princess Josie held her hands and looked at Arrod's back and said silently.
Arold suddenly set out from Mecklenburg with three hundred and fifty cavalry, including heavily armored knights, crossbow-wielding light cavalry, and more often Hussar cavalry led by Ted.
"Lord Duke, where are we going?" Ted did not understand why Arold would suddenly lead his cavalry out of Mecklenburg, but he did not ask why, because in his heart it was his duty to obey the Duke's orders.
"To the south, to the territory of the Duchy of Bohemia." A sneer appeared on the corner of Arold's mouth, and at this time the large army led by the King of Bohemia left his land and invaded the border of East Francia, leaving the country empty.
Although the king of Bohemia was wary of Arrod, leaving the bravest radar men to defend Mecklenburg, he never imagined that Herman, who commanded the vassal army, was only a front for Arrod, and Arold himself would personally lead the cavalry to quickly break into Bohemia.
"The cavalry went directly to the county of Lauzitz in the Duchy of Mason to rest, and you sent light cavalry under my banner to have the castles and towns along the way put food and water on the roadside." Arold said to Ted right away.
"So fast?" Ted was shocked to hear this, it was almost across four counties.
"Don't worry, we're all cavalry, and besides, it's our own territory along the way, and we can get supplies at any time." Arold explained firmly to Ted.
"Obey your orders, Lord Duke." Ted listened and said no more, as an officer who had been promoted by Arold from a lowly Slavic commoner, it was almost his instinct to obey orders.
Pure cavalry mass movement, in this era except for the Magyars, the nobles of Europa almost do not do, because these nobles believe that without the cover of the infantry, the cavalry will certainly not be able to provide themselves with supplies and assistance, as for the Magyars can do it, that only God knows, and Arold is going to try this method of warfare.
"Boom~~." More than 300 cavalry rushed all the way south, because the Duchy of Mason was the territory of Arrod's wife, so when the panicked castle defenders saw Arrod's black lion banner, they breathed a sigh of relief and opened the city gates.
"I am the husband of Princess Josie of Mason, the messenger of Lord Duke Mecklenburg, and you shall at once place the food, water, and hay provided for a hundred people on the side of the road, and you will be rewarded for serving Lord Duke." The light cavalry, holding the banner of the black lion, came to the castle and manor along the way, and announced loudly to the people inside.
"Look, it's the Black Lion flag, that's the flag of the Duke of Mecklenburg." The castle in the castle was immediately recognizable when it saw the flag, for the Arrodes had once toured the territory of the Duchy of Mason.
Hearing Arold's order, the nobles in the castles and manors along the way hurriedly put food, water and hay on the roadside, of course, some people were worried that it was a deception, so they left some soldiers to guard it in case it was a trick of the robbers, but when the thunderous sound of horses' hooves sounded from the path, they knew that it was all true.
"Quick, quick, quick, half of the people don't get off their horses and take food and water." The cavalry led by Arold rushed along the path like a torrent, and when he saw food and water on the side of the road, Arold asked the cavalry to save as much time as possible, for Arrod at this time, time was everything.
"Your Excellency the Duke, why are you leading such a large army, I heard that the Bohemians and your army are fighting in the west, are you lost?" The nobles of Mason were surprised to see Arold and his cavalry, and some of the nobles stood on the side of the road and saw Arold wearing a stoat, and confirmed that it was the Duke of Mecklenburg, so they hurriedly asked Arold.
"I'm not lost, don't worry, do what I told you, and then the Chamber of Commerce in Mecklenburg will pay for your losses." Arold didn't say anything to these nobles, and in the face of Arold, who was tight-lipped, the Mason nobles had no choice but to give up.
When Arold finally arrived in the county of Lauzitz, it was Hermann. When the vassal army led by Billon was fighting hard against the people of Radar, on one side was the army of huge vassals gathered slowly, and on the other hand, the cavalry troops of Arrod were mobile, and in terms of speed, Arrod's pure cavalry troops had the upper hand.
"Beyond this border is the territory of the Bohemian county of Litomeřice." Sean said to Arrod.
"Herman, where are they?" Arold pulled out a parchment map, which had been provided to him by Havina's men, and although it was not as detailed as later generations, it marked important landmarks.
"They should be held back near Plzeň, and His Majesty's army downstream." Sean looked at the map and pointed to it, as the leader of the newly established intelligence organization KGB, Sean also followed Arrod with the army, and his intelligence lines were mainly distributed among the army.
"Very well, let's play Litomerice first." Arold slammed his fist on the map, took Litomerice, which was adjacent to the Lauzitz Domain, and had a base to move on.
"But Litomerice is the nest of the most rebellious of the Bohemians, and I'm afraid it won't go so well!" Sean said to Arrod with a frown.
"Didn't you tell me that the King of Bohemia sent the Radarians to stop Herman?" Arjod asked, turning to Sean.
"Yes, it is, but we don't know how many fighters are left in Litomeria?" Sean said uncertainly.
"Ha, no matter how much he has, I'm going to gnaw it down." Arold looked relaxed, and he wanted to kill two birds with one stone to solve the stupid plan of the Bohèmes.
