The Javelin Cavalry competition inspired Arrod, and he suddenly thought about why he didn't carry forward the sport, and it is said that the selection of longbowmen in England began with the community competition, from the community to select the best archers, and then to the competition into the county, and then to the whole kingdom, like the medieval national games, but also for the country to cultivate and reserve a large number of excellent longbowmen.

Arold was the kind of person who did what he thought of, and after the first day of Javelin Cavalry practice, he returned to the mayor's house under repair, sent a batch of timber from the Angry Lion Castle, and recruited the laborers of the town of Wismar to build the shooting range into an arena, which of course took a long time to build. During this time, the county of Mecklenburg was very peaceful, and the whole county was divided among the forces of the three parties, Arrod, who occupied the border towns of Fort Furylon and Visma, the old Slavic nobility who ruled around the castle of the capital of Mecklenburg, and the ostensibly neutral temple of the Lomva religion.

Because under the leadership of the hero Kang Tuoyi, all the military forces of Mecklenburg County were mobilized, so when this army that united the forces of all parties in Mecklenburg County was defeated, both the capital castle of Mecklenburg County and the Lifechen Temple were left with only a little force to protect themselves, and they cowered in their own territory and watched Arrod's movements vigilantly, but Arold did not rejoice in vain and tried to conquer the entire county at once, he slowly but firmly expanded and firmly grasped the territory in his hands.

"The outer walls of Fort Fury can start to expand, this time we need to store our own water, and we can't make the same mistake as last time." Arold sat in the hall of the renovated mayor's house. The monks of St. Fonso came and went with various parchment scrolls, they now acted as Arrod's advisory group, and every day the construction and decisions in the territory had to be made by Arrod, and he was busy with almost no other leisure time, but he felt extremely fulfilled when he watched the gradually stabilized territory.

"Lord Earl, a petitioner from a village has asked for your reception." Melinda also seemed to be Arold's personal secretary at this time, and she quickly became an unobtainable figure in Arold's court as a multilingual person, and her boyfriend Martin was appointed by Arold as the head of the security of the town of Visam, responsible for the security of the entire town of Visa, since Arold shifted his focus to the largest town in the territory. Wismar's safety was a top priority.

"Let him in." Arold stood up. Walking up to a slave with a drinking utensils, he poured the bright red wine from the jug into his glass, then poured a little out of the glass into another glass, and watched the slave drink it for a few minutes. He put the glass to his lips. Since the last poisoning of the Lomwa priests. Arold bought a slave and tried every cup of wine and every bite of food for herself, though it was very troublesome. But you can live a long life.

"Your Excellency, the Great Earl." A dusty Slavic peasant, wearing a patched gray cloak behind him, walked in, and as soon as he entered the hall of the mayor's house, he immediately knelt down on one knee and saluted Arrod.

"Get up, which village are you a representative of?" Arold took a sip of precious wine with a wine glass, and now the taxes in the town of Wismar can allow him to live a slightly more luxurious life, and as a superior in this era, it is just such a little benefit.

"I am the representative of the village of Stanlow, the noble Earl." After listening to Melinda's translation, the peasant representative hurriedly replied to Arrod.

"Stanlow Village?" Arold couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, there seemed to be no such village in the countryside ruled by the center of Visma Town, if it was not within his own rule, it was the territory of the county capital and the temple.

"It's a village near the capital of Mecklenburg County." Standing on the left hand side of Arold is a religious knight Xiu wearing chain mail and a cross blouse, I don't know why Lu Dao was originally imposing Elder Bartlet of the Monk of St. Jom, after meeting with Arold and attending the dinner, he suddenly changed his mind and agreed to let the knight Xiu join Arold's court, and at the same time merge the knights of the Monks' Guild, which made Arold's army grow a lot, but Arold was very cautious about this powerful force that was not actually in his hands, He sent this company of knights to garrison the border with other powerful forces, in the name of intimidating the infidels, but in fact to keep them away from the center of his power, and to separate the monastic from the control of this armed force.

"Oh, then why would you be willing to me, and not to the Slavic nobles of your capital of Mecklenburg." Arold sat down curiously, looking at the peasant with vegetables in front of him, and seeing that his ragged life must have been very difficult.

"The nobles are beasts, and they gathered all the maidens from the country villages around the castle of the capital, saying that they wanted to keep them safe, but their families had not seen them since they entered the castle, and it was not until a young girl escaped scarred not long ago that she told the others what had happened in the castle." The peasant simply whimpered and said to Arrod, even looking at the expression on his face, he could tell what tragic things had happened.

"What happened?" Arrod couldn't help but put down his glass, leaned forward and asked the peasant.

"The nobles held a 'feast of the gods.'" The farmer spat out a string of words with his trembling lips, his expression mixed with anger and fear.

"What's that?" Arold listened to Melinda's translation, and had no idea what this feast had to do with the maidens being trapped in the castle, and the nobles often held feasts to show off their wealth and pass the time of boredom.

"Abominable heretics." Xiu, who was standing beside Arode, made an angry voice, and when he saw Arode's puzzled expression, it dawned on him that the secular count did not understand the teachings of Lomwa, "Lomvaism is a very primitive religion, and their teachings contain many chaotic and bloody false gods, the worship of ugly men and women, and blood sacrifices as their way of showing reverence to the gods. ”

"Oh, you mean that the Slavic nobles in the castle of the capital of Mecklenburg County put those maidens together in the castle for blood sacrifice?" Arold was stunned, superstitious thoughts killed people, and more than a hundred young girls were poisoned by them in this way.

"Not only that, but I'm afraid it was ravaged before the blood sacrifice."

"Oh my God, what are they doing this for?" Arold saw that this 'feast of the gods' was probably also an evil deed among the Slavic peasants, and that it was not good for the Slavic nobles to do such a wrathful thing.

"This ritual is very ancient, and it exists only in lomwa legends, and one of the stories is that a lomwa king gathered all the women of the country in his court to protect the country by the miracles of the gods of lomwa through promiscuity and blood sacrifices when his son was killed by an enemy and the country was about to be conquered." At this time, Melinda said that as a Slav, she was well aware of the stories that circulated among the Slavs, but she also admitted that it was just the madness of the Slavs in despair.

"Despair? But for what, although we have wiped out most of the soldiers in the capital castle of Mecklenburg, but the remaining defenders are enough to last a year and a half, why would they despair, the Great Emirate of Mecklenburg has a principality of three counties, and soldiers can be mobilized from other counties at any time. Arold was even more puzzled, the Slavic nobles should not have reached the point of self-collapse.

"The petitioning peasants said that there was a rumor circulating in the countryside that when Kang Tuoyi went to other counties to ask for reinforcements, he was refused, and his two elder brothers were unwilling to divide their troops in order to compete for the throne of the great chief, and when Kang Tuoyi was about to return to the capital of Mecklenburg after no result of persuasion, he mysteriously disappeared, and the Slavic nobles who had lost their reinforcements and the hero Kang Tuoyi were completely desperate, so they made such a crazy ritual as holding a 'feast of the gods'.

"Your justice and kindness, Lord Count, have spread throughout the county, and now only you can save our poor daughters." The peasant fell to his knees, stretched out his arms and begged Arrod.

"This evil behavior must be stopped, well, although we have different beliefs, but I am your rightful sovereign, and I have agreed to your request, I will lead the army to the castle of Mecklenburg, and let the Slavic nobles who occupy the castle hand over your daughters, but I need your help." Arold felt that he was a big explosion of character, he had not been standing still but did not judge his strength and the strength of the Slavic nobles of Mecklenburg Castle, if he boldly marched into Mecklenburg Castle, he was afraid that he would make the same mistake as Kang Tuoyi, but now he didn't have to worry about this problem, the Slavic nobles actually isolated themselves from their own people, which made Arold see the hope of soon ruling the entire Mecklenburg County.

"Rest assured, Noble Earl, I will spread your act of justice to all the villages along the way, and we will stand firmly by your side to reclaim our daughters." The peasant solemnly assured Arrod, and then stepped back and left the mayor's hall, where he mounted his pack horse and rode out of town.

"Julian, send some javelin hussars to follow him, quietly follow him and find out the news, to make sure that this is not a trap for the Slavic nobles." Arold looked at the back of the peasant as he left, and instructed Julian. (To be continued......)
