Section 55 Lumberjacks

There were indeed many signs of felling on the tree, and Julian looked closely to determine that it must be inhabited, and he led Herman into the depths of the woods, and sure enough, when they cleared a bush, they found a thatched hut in the middle of the woods, and a bonfire in front of the house, and there was still an unextinguished flame in it.

"Looks like there's someone here." Herman placed his hand on the hilt of the sword at his waist, and by this time he had already determined.

"Look around." Julian said to his men, and several Willer knights hurriedly drew their swords from their waists, looking everywhere for clues, and while they were looking around, there was actually a family hiding in a bush, and the man was curled up with his wife, and his wife put her hand on the mouth of the child in her arms, afraid that the child would cry out in fright.

"Master Julian, we've looked everywhere, but no." The knights searched everywhere with their swords, and several times passed by the bushes, but found no trace of the family.

"Did you escape?" Herman said with a frown.

"No, not so quickly, you see the fire of the campfire has not been extinguished." Julian walked over to the campfire, stirred it with his sword, and when he saw that the fire was still alive inside, he said to Herman.

"That's weird, how can you not find it?" Herman looked around in wonder, but in fact, he didn't have much hope in his heart to find this family hidden in the woods, after all, even if he found the locals, he might not be able to know the shortcut to the wetlands.

Julian crouched down at this point, learning from Marty's best hunters in Wille, and could tell the whereabouts of his prey in subtle detail, and a smile appeared on his lips when he crouched down and saw the grass roots that had been pressed on the ground.

Soon, Julian found the family in hiding, and the Willer knights drove them out of their hiding place, a ragged Slav.

"Who are you? Why is it here? Julian asked in Slavic.

"My lord, I'm just a lumberjack, and I'm here with my family because of my work." The Slavic man said respectfully to Julian.

"Oh, lumberjack, are you a local?" Julian saw an axe on a stake next to the hut, and by all indications they were lumberjacks.

"No, we're not locals." The lumberjack shook his head and said.

"It's terrible." Herman. Billund shook his head in disappointment, it seemed that their luck was not good.

"Tsk." Julian was also a little disappointed when he heard this, and if he couldn't find the locals who were familiar with the terrain, he would have to take the risk of filling the wetlands with the corpses of soldiers.

"Mom, I'm hungry." At this moment, the boy in the arms of the lumberjack's wife raised his head and said to his mother.

"Shh The lumberjack's wife nervously covered the child's mouth, these knights wearing bright armor were very terrifying in their eyes, and once the lumberjack's wife made a disrespectful remark in the heart of the lumberjack's wife, it was afraid that it would lead to disaster, and the nobles only needed to compensate a few coins for killing civilians in peacetime, and killing people in this war was even more rare.

"Is there food? Give it to me. But Julian was not angry, and he turned to his Knight Willer and asked.

"Yes, my lord." The knight hurriedly walked to his mount and took out a piece of beef from the leather bag behind the mount, and the knight also thoughtfully took out the leather bag containing the water.

"Here you go." Julian took the knight's food and water and handed it to the lumberjacks, much to their surprise.

"Thank you, sir." The lumberjack didn't know what to say, so he could only thank Julian repeatedly.

"You're welcome." Julian waved his hand to the lumberjack, and with that he was about to leave with Herman, when the lumberjack stopped Julian.

"My lord, why are you looking for a local?" The lumberjack said to Julian.

"Oh, we're looking for a local who knows the wetlands, do you know where to find it?" Julian quickly turned to the lumberjack and said.

"Because of the war waged by the Bohemians, the few remaining locals fled here, and no one dared to stay in this vicinity, except for me and my family who hid in the dense forest." Said the lumberjack.

"That's right!" Listening to the lumberjack's words, Julian and Herman were even more disappointed, and it seemed that there was no last glimmer of hope.

"If you're familiar with wetlands, I'm enough." However, when Julian and Herman are disappointed, the lumberjack tells them the news that they are overjoyed.

"What, you're saying you're familiar with wetlands?" Overjoyed, Herman stepped forward and grabbed the lumberjack's arm, shaking the lumberjack to the point of breaking his waist.

"Yes, yes, sir."

"How did you get familiar with that wetland?" Julian asked, puzzled.

"Well, there's a little lake in the middle of that wetland, and there's a lot of fish in it, and I sometimes go somewhere to find frogs and fish for my kids when I'm free from logging." Said the lumberjack.

"Great, if you can help us, we'll be rewarded." Julian said happily to the lumberjack.

At the same time, the cavalry under Arold also moved in the direction of Count Radarri, this time at a slower pace than the last time, and the town of Arold was handed over to Makunusfsky, leaving thirty cavalry to guard it.

"Lord Duke, aren't you afraid that Makunusfsky will rebel after we leave?" Sean asked curiously.

"Now the people in the towns hate Makunusvsky more than they hate us, and Makunusvsky can only survive on us." A smile appeared on Arrod's lips as he rode his horse and said to Sean.

"I see." Sean sat on his horse and looked behind him, and at the back of the cavalry was tied with ropes a series of radar people, these were the families of the warriors who followed the Count of Radar, and he didn't know why Arrod was carrying these burdens.

"Water, give me some water." Among the captives, the children and wife of the Count of Redari were the most conspicuous, and the eldest son of the Count of Redari followed the horse with his hands tied, and he kept begging the cavalry.

"Ha, poor fellow, his father is quite a character!" Ted rode on his horse and looked disdainfully at the eldest son of the Earl of Radar, and said.

"Ted give him some water, he's a big bargaining chip." Instead of laughing at the cowardice of the eldest son of the Count of Radar, Arold commanded Ted.

"Yes, Lord Duke."
