Chapter Seventy-One: Forward, and Forward

In the end, when the Grand Duke of Murchid made this suggestion, the Count of Don did not agree for the time being. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Of course, this is not unexpected by the Grand Duke, after all, it is such a big thing, to be a righteous son, to recognize a person as a father, if Count Xiao Tang really agrees without even thinking about it, then the Grand Duke really has to think about it again, such a person who forgets his righteousness for profit and completely disregards his feelings, is it suitable for him to entrust the family.

In addition, the Grand Duke was sure that even if the little Count Tang hesitated and refused to agree, but his knights would force him to agree, not to mention anything else, when the Grand Duke made this suggestion, the eyes of the accompanying knights were about to light up! People go to high places, water flows to low places, and there is such a peace, there is no need to use force at all, and the conditions of the knight's oath can be promoted, why don't they do it?

Besides, they are for the good of Count Don! That's the Duke, you know, Duke! Do you know how many people in this European land dream of becoming an archduke?

That's it, the Grand Duke ate the dinner with satisfaction, and then patted his stomach and ran away, leaving only a bunch of knights staring at Count Tang and staring at each other without saying a word.

"Lord Earl, this is a great opportunity!"

"Lord Earl, Tianyu will not take the blame, don't let him go!"

"The Grand Duke of Donchester! How nice it sounds, Lord Earl. ”

"Lord Earl......"

"Stop!"

Seeing that this group of knights was excited, and even the oldest and most serious knight of Alcobar had their eyes shining, and they had the intention of forcing him to agree, Count Tang Jr. hurriedly shouted loudly, temporarily suppressing the enthusiastic cries of the knights.

"Why don't you want to think about it one by one? The Grand Duke accepted me as a adopted son, and he wanted to give me the Duke of Munster, such a pie-in-the-sky good thing, so can his son agree? Even if his son could say yes, would his men be able to say yes? Inexplicably the head has changed, aren't they worried about their future and fate? ”

The knights looked shy and laughed, and they all patted their chests and promised that there would never be anyone who did not have long eyes to run out to oppose it, we Desmond soldiers are strong and strong, and the lord is wise and powerful, and whoever dares to jump out of the heart and eyes will guarantee that he will really become a lack of heart eyes the next day.

So the matter had to be postponed.

To tell the truth, Earl Don really doesn't want to be this Archduke of Rausch, a small county of Desmond, with a population of only 50,000, he has been tossing for a year to be considered just a little better, and now you are shoehorning him into a dukedom! Lord, have mercy on my sins!

Skip this paragraph, the rest of the matter has been decided a long time ago, and march into Bizheforne.

Although he won the battle last time, because Count Tang's own army also suffered heavy casualties, Count Tang did not dare to advance, which was equivalent to giving up the richest part of the winner's reward. But this time, the casualties of Count Don Jr. were almost negligible compared to Duke Eddard - most of them were trampled by running fire bulls, and some were wounded by arrows, and the actual injuries in melee combat were really only a small part.

Therefore, this time it can be said that there are enough troops, not to mention just marching into Bijeforne, and directly holding an armed march in Ireland, but this end, it is a little difficult to say.

Another one, in order to make up for the losses in this operation, the personnel part is not mentioned, after all, we said, this is not much, but the five hundred cattle, this is not small. It is still the time of spring ploughing, and the removal of five hundred sturdy cattle from the fields is a great loss in itself, and in the spring, if there is no war, those cattle can still be pregnant, and there are still calves left, and now there is nothing, this loss, Count Tang is also determined to get back from Duke Ed.

But when the march began, the little Count Tang suffered.

Because of the road conditions.

People always forget the past, especially the bad things very quickly, since the whole territory of Desmond has built the Qin Straight Road, the original potholed road is no longer there, the cavalry can run on the road without fear of falling, and the march can also be used as fast as possible without worrying about what pit will fall into, so the little Tang Earl is almost about to forget about the road conditions!

But as soon as he crossed the border with Desmond, Count Don Jr. immediately recalled.

Potholes, pits, pits, all pits, people take a step to be careful that they will suddenly step on the air, and then it will be a light foot, or a broken foot. The men were already like this, let alone the cavalry, and they hardly dared to walk on the road, lest they stumble if they were not careful—besides, the Grand Duke of Murchid had said that the roads were already in good condition because of the perennial presence of merchants in and out of North Munster, and it would be a real test when they reached Bigeforne!

"Do I have to help these guys fix the road every step I take in the future?"

At that time, Count Tang Xiao asked Cangtian speechlessly, thinking so pessimistically.

But pessimism to pessimism, this march still had to continue, Count Tang had to take the horses of the cavalry that had been captured, plus let the light cavalry dismount a part, a total of sixty horses, more than 1,000 people started work on the spot, and it took two days to make enough two-wheeled carriages that were most suitable for driving in rough terrain - anyway, in this era, people have no requirements for safety, comfort or anything, as long as the carriage is durable enough - and Count Xiao Tang even lost the durability enough, He just needs the carriage to last for a month or two, enough for him to run back and forth.

So the whole army went on the road lightly, and the whole army consisted of 1,100 men (the rest went back to transport the booty and took care of the prisoners by the way), and there were 550 pikemen, 385 sword and shield men, 100 crossbowmen, and all the light cavalry and knights, and all their equipment was stripped off, and each man had only a sword for self-defense, and a light leather armor, and some other chain mail, a whole body of kite-shaped shields, and super long spears, especially super long guns. They were all thrown into the carriage, and then they were let to the middle of the line, with sword and shield soldiers in front of them, ultra-long pikemen on the left and right, and crossbowmen at the back.

However, even with such light equipment, it can almost be said that when most of the armament has been abandoned, the distance that the entire army can advance in a day is only fifty or sixty miles, which is really far from the number expected by Earl Tang, but this number is almost the limit!

Just at this speed, Grand Duke Murchid was already amazed, it was simply a divine soldier descending from heaven, far faster than the speed of Duke Ed's rapid march!

What's more, even in such a high-intensity march, this army is still meticulous and the formation is not chaotic at all, such an army is indeed not inferior to the legions of those angels in mythology and the armies of those legendary ancient empires.

This also made the idea of Grand Duke Mulchid accepting the Count of Little Tang as his adopted son more and more intense.

So, on the fifth day, the Earl of Don and his army finally reached Limerick, from where the armies of the two invaders had passed through Desmond, and now the Earl of Don himself had come with his troops.

And the inhabitants of Limerick are also in fear, waiting for fate, or the judgment of the Earl of Don Jr.
