vs 16 Responsibilities of the wife
Yves never stopped when he hit it, he was like a wild wolf in the forest, and although the number of those fierce bandits was numerous, they were like a group of lambs to be slaughtered, Yves relied on the speed of the war horse under his crotch, once he locked the lone person in the crowd, he did not hesitate to show his fangs, and the blade on the prosthetic leg of his right hand tasted the blood of one bandit after another.
"Whew, that's impossible, there are so many of us." The bandit leader held his sword and his shield in his hand, and he watched as the knight rode around them while his men became fewer and fewer, and the screams that rang out from time to time made the rest even more nervous.
"Shoot him, shoot him." The bandit with the bow and arrow in his hand bent his bow and shot arrows in the direction of Ive, but it was difficult for Ifu to shoot while on the move, and occasionally he was helpless because of the strong armor on Ive's body.
"Hurry up and go over there, and the others will come with me." The bandit leader led his men to try to stop Ive, trying to compress Ive's space as much as possible, while he himself held his shield and rushed towards Ive, hunger and cold made these people like beasts in a desperate situation.
"Die." Yves had already hit it at this time, he slammed the horse's belly fiercely, and rushed straight to the bandit leader, but the other party bent down to block the shield in front of him, and his low posture blocked the way of the war horse.
"Ive-sama." The Mecklenburg soldiers, who were defending themselves by the wagon, cried out, and at last the soldier with the horn blew the horn, and the long sound of the horn floated in the air.
"Kill the signaler." When the bandit leader heard the sound of the trumpet, he turned around and commanded his men loudly.
"Ah~~." Among the bandits, there were also brave warriors, who took up their axes and slashed at the Mecklenburg soldiers, and the sound of the trumpet stopped abruptly, although the signal was not completely given. However, Yves took advantage of this opportunity to stand up with great difficulty, and the heavy armor protected his body so that he was not injured.
"Wow, ahh~~." When the bandits saw Eve, who had fallen from his horse, they thought they could make a big deal, so they ran to him with a roar, brandishing weapons of various lengths in their hands. There was not the slightest panic on If's face, and he rubbed the sword on his prosthetic limb against his left armour, making a noise of metal grinding, and sparks splashed, rushing into the crowd like a lion, roaring and the sound of weapons crashing against armor.
"Listen, Lord Earl is the sound of a trumpet, and Lord Yves is crying for help." At this time, in the village not far from here, Arold was anxiously waiting for news from Eve. Baron Ron, who was guarding the entrance to the village, heard a trumpet, and he immediately recognized it as a signal from Yves, and hurried to report it to Arrode.
"The cavalrymen immediately mounted their horses, and my brother was calling for help." Arold hurriedly put on his helmet and mounted his horse with the help of Harun, and the cavalry of the squire regiment around him also mounted their horses and took up their weapons and followed closely behind his monarch, and when the heavy cavalry moved, the sound of horses' hooves was like thunder in winter.
"Quick. Hurry up again. Arold rode his horse almost close to the horse's back, and he kicked the horse under his crotch fiercely. The spurs pierced the abdomen of the war horse, and the galloping war horse led the group of heavy cavalry straight to the battlefield like a fast arrow.
"Reinforcements are coming, reinforcements are coming." The soldiers of Mecklenburg, who were in the midst of a bitter battle, heard the thunderous sound of horses' hooves in their ears and immediately shouted excitedly, while the bandits who also heard it were shocked. They began to scatter like headless flies, but soon Arold rode his horse and fell from the sky, seeing that one of the nearest bandits was fleeing with his back, Arold pulled out his terminator without saying a word, and then the horse slashed hard from behind. The blade of the sword slashed into the enemy's left shoulder, and the only sound of a broken bone was heard, and the bandit's collarbone was split in half by Arold, and the bandit ran a few steps forward before falling to the ground, the red blood flowing on the snow was particularly eye-catching.
"Oh woo~~~~." The rest of the heavy cavalry, with spears in their hands, took the scattered bandits as the target of practice, stabbed them with the tip of their spears, and trampled the enemy with their horses.
"What about Ive, where's my brother?" Arold tightened his grip on the reins and let the horse under his crotch slowly slow down, and he came to the carriage and asked the Mecklenburg soldiers.
"Your Excellency is over there." A soldier with a bloodied arm pointed in one direction with his uninjured hand, Arold hurriedly turned his horse's head and rushed over, in fact, it was not difficult to find there, as long as he followed the enemy's corpse and bloodstains to find the direction, Arold found Eff resting under a cedar tree in the woods, his armor was stained with a lot of blood, but it should not be his blood that looked like he was doing well, and there was a human head thrown at his feet, and the body with the lost head was a few steps away, The corpse was dressed in better armor than the other bandits, and at a glance it was a figure like a leader, no wonder when the cavalry rushed over, those bandits didn't even have a decent organization, it turned out that their leader was killed by Yve.
"You're so late." Yves unveiled the mask on his helmet at this time, which was also stained with blood, and his prosthetic sword seemed to be coated with a layer of viscous red dye, which could be seen to have been fought for his life, but although Yve's face was a little tired, he had a smile, which was a satisfied smile after defeating a strong enemy.
"yes, it's delayed on the way, how's it going?" Arold asked, and he lifted his chin on his horse, meaning to ask if Ev was satisfied with the prosthetic.
"It's like a real hand, oh no, it's supposed to be a stronger hand." Yves lifted his prosthetic leg and nodded with satisfaction, although people who know swordsmanship usually say that the sword in their hand is an extension of their arm, but when your hand is really combined with the sword, it is a very strange swordsmanship for others.
"That's good, we won." Arold looked at Yves, who had regained his ambition with a smile on his face, and he simply concluded about this small battle, although this is not enough for a lord like them who can mobilize a thousand people, this kind of dozens of people fighting is not enough to see, but for Yve, it is a new beginning, a new beginning opened with the blood of a group of bandits.
The problem of invading the territory of bandits was solved very smoothly, and there was hardly anything to worry about in Mecklenburg, and their castle was stocked up with enough food and supplies for the winter, as long as they waited quietly for the winter general to pass, Arold finally lived a peaceful life in this era, and accompanied his wife, whose belly was getting bigger and bigger, they sat in the bedroom with a warm fireplace, and their leisure time was to play chess, which was already chess in this era, Although the rules are slightly different from later generations, the general pattern of moves has not changed much, and the chess pieces are carved out of stone, and Princess Josie told her father that she had a precious set of ebony zuò chess.
"My queen will be your king." Arold learned the game quickly, he picked up a piece carved in the shape of a queen, and placed it in the position of persecuting the king, in chess the queen is the most powerful, and the king is like a chess master of the Celestial Empire.
"Whew." Princess Josie is the teacher who taught Arold to play chess, of course, she will not let him win lightly, I saw her thin eyebrows furrowed slightly, stretched out her slender right hand and gently twisted a knight, put the knight in the position of forcing the queen to eat, and sacrificed the knight in exchange for the king's safety, so that Arold's carefully planned good move was in vain.
"Ah, it's good, it's witty." Arrod smacked his mouth, just as chess in the Celestial Empire was good for tactical thinking, chess could exercise people's logical thinking skills, it is said to be a game invented by the ancient Greeks, and it is now the most popular noble entertainment among the aristocracy.
"It's not going to be played, it's getting harder and harder to win chess with you, and my head hurts when I think about it." Princess Josie glanced at Arrod with disgust, and disrupted the chess game with a push of her small hand, although she said the words of admitting defeat, but Arold knew that she was actually the one who was about to lose, and couldn't help laughing, and there were snowflakes drifting in outside the half-open window, but as soon as she entered the warm room, she disappeared.
"My beautiful princess, as a person who admits defeat, you have to promise the winner a question, and you must answer it honestly." Arold said to Princess Josie with a smile.
"Well, well, Count, what do you want to ask?" Princess Josie asked curiously, her hands caressing her towering belly, and the maid hurriedly brought soft cushions and placed them behind her back.
"How the hell do you know about the royal family, and I don't believe that such a thing can be spread in town?" Arold took the warm wine handed over by the maid and voiced the doubts in his heart.
"I knew you would ask, but these things were told to me by the noble ladies who came to visit me in the territory, and sometimes I would feel bored when I stayed in the castle, so I asked the ladies of the noble families in the realm to come and talk to me, which is also what the lady of the castle should do, and the friendship between the ladies and ladies of the guò is connected to the relationship between the nobles and the lord." Princess Josie explained to Arold that she was well aware of Arrod's efforts for the development of Mecklenburg, and that her wise husband always had his own set of ideas, which were incompatible with the traditional aristocracy, and that Princess Josie felt that it was her duty as a wife to share her worries for Arrod in order to avoid unnecessary conflicts and troubles.
