Section 314 Countermeasures

In a valley in Mecklenburg, there was no one here except for the occasional shepherd, but now the valley has become noisy, standing on the cliff and looking down, you can see dozens of small tents like flowers in the field, this valley has been divided by Arold as a base for training cavalry, the tents are selected from among the soldiers, and the members of the standing squire regiment, they will practice how to use the horse pistol here with Arold, but the war horses of the Bogo family have not yet been transported, How are these young cavalrymen trained?

"Charge, clamp the carbine." Dressed in a simple undershirt and wrapped around his chest and shoulders with two pieces of leather armor for defense, Arold shouted to his attendants as they aimed their rifles at their targets.

"Pull hard~~~." I saw that the trained squire was riding on a wooden horse, the territory of the wooden horse was equipped with four wooden wheels, and there were two ropes in front of it, and Arold, who lacked horses, could only let them ride on the wooden horse to begin their initial training, and when they knew how to balance the horse and hit the target with a horse pistol, they would switch to a normal riding horse.

"Ping~~~." The squire on the wooden horse clamped the pistol under his armpit and hit the top of the pistol at the target, and the members of the squire group improved rapidly in the non-stop training, and even little Pine was able to master the skill.

In addition to the squires who were trained here, there were also blacksmiths tinkling and mending damaged weapons and nailing horseshoes to training horses, and wagons carrying heavy goods were pulled here and piled up, and there was a large tent for the tired squires to rest and eat. The valley is not far from Mecklenburg, and if you stand at the mouth of the valley, you can see the flag fluttering at the top of the Mecklenburg tower.

"Lord Count, there is something urgent in Mecklenburg." While Arold was training his attendants, a Mecklenburg javelinman rode into the valley to report to Arrod.

"Oh? Something is wrong. "Seeing this hurried cavalryman, Arrod has been calm lately, what could be so anxious?

"Your horse, Lord Count." Sir Ron led Arrod's mount over, and Harlan and Shaun and other personal attendants hurriedly led their horses and waited, as personal attendants, they were ready to serve Arrod's side at any time, convey Arrod's orders in time and protect Arold's personal safety.

"Okay, follow me, and the others continue to train intensively." Arold took the reins of his horse, flipped on his horse, kicked his mount with his heel and headed for his home city of Mecklenburg, followed by five of his attendants.

The roads of Mecklenburg were paved with cobblestones and gravel, and this kind of road was very convenient for pedestrians and horseback riders, although it was better for the average lord to do this kind of thing than to buy more livestock, but Arold persevered, and it was not wrong to build roads before getting rich, and the relatively good quality of the roads increased the number of travelers and merchants, and the nimble merchants in the towns on both sides of the road began to build inns and taverns, so that the weary traveler could rest without entering the town, Javelins patrol the border every three days, and robbers and thieves are severely punished with hard labor if they are caught, so the law and order in Mecklenburg is also very stable.

"It's finally time for Mecklenburg." A group of businessmen drove the caravan along the roads of Mecklenburg, and from the caravan came the face of a pale man, and when he saw the border guard tower in Mecklenburg, he smiled with delight.

"This is your hometown?" The merchant asked curiously, holding on to the caravan.

"Yes, my hometown." The man seemed to be wounded, so he seemed very weak, and after enduring the bumps and fears along the way, there was nothing better for him to be able to return to Mecklenburg, he was the Brotherhood of Blooddrops sent by Harvey to report to Arrod, after being attacked by the three boar brothers, he was the only one who escaped into the river to avoid the pursuers, but he was shot in the back with a bow and arrow, fortunately he was rescued by a group of traveling merchants.

As soon as the wounded droplets returned to Mecklenburg, they immediately wanted to see Arrod, and then there was a scene of the javelinmen going to the valley where Arold trained heavy cavalry, and when Arold returned to Mecklenburg, the member of the Blooddrops was lying in Miss Shirley's room for treatment, and the wound on his back was only briefly treated, so that some places became infected and suppurated, and Miss Shirley scraped off the pustules with a silver knife, and then applied herbs collected from the forest and mashed.

"Where is he?" Arrod strode into Miss Shirley's pharmacy and saw a wooden bed topless, with a linen bandage bandage, and many bottles and jars of herbs and dried animals on the wooden table around it, and a human skull in a corner.

"Lord Count." Drops of blood were lying on the wooden bed, and when he saw Arold coming over in person, he hurriedly tried to sit up, but he tried twice without success, and finally had to give up.

"Lie down, what's going on, your leader Harvey?" Arold reached out and grabbed his shoulders and asked him.

"Yes, Lord Earl, we have obtained evidence that Count Lauzitz poisoned Lord Duke, but Count Lausitz also seems to feel that he blocked the road to Mason Town, and he must have rushed out with great difficulty to catch Harvey Lord, please forgive me for the rest of the matter." The members of the Blood Drop recounted the incident with difficulty, although it was only a simple and bland narrative, but people could feel the danger at that time.

"Count Lautzitz?" Arjord's eyes narrowed as he listened, he had investigated the cause of the old duke's death, but when the cellar master died, the clue was broken, and a series of wars distracted him, so that the Count of Lauzitz gathered his strength again.

"According to the investigation of the Brotherhood of Blood Drops, Count Lauzitz did not know that he had obtained a sum of money from there, and many courtiers in the court of Duke Mason had been bribed, and Mason, the nobles of Mason were afraid that they would be unfavorable to Lord Baron."

"Hiss~~~." Arrod's brows furrowed, and he took a sharp breath of cold air, and his heart became uneasy, Baron Wendell and his mother were both in Lida Fort in the Duchy of Mason.

"What's wrong with you, Lord Count?" Miss Shirley saw that Arrod's face became blue and red for a while, thinking that Arold had some kind of disease, and hurriedly asked with concern.

"No, send more people to find out what is going on in the Duchy of Mason, and call Brother Elvet to gather the courtiers at the same time." Arold gave the injured member of the Blood Drop a good rest, and then left Miss Shirley's pharmacy, and as he went, he asked his attendants to fetch Brother Elvet as he needed his help as Arrod's palace minister.

"Yes, Lord Count." The personal attendants immediately followed Arold's order to find Brother Elvet, and in the hall of the lord, Arold was sitting precariously waiting for his courtiers, Arold's courtiers were actually not many, except for the palace minister Brother Elvet was the local nobleman of Mecklenburg, the Jewish Soros and the new Bogo family.

"Your Excellency, Earl." Arold sat on his lord's throne, his lord's hall was built by the former West Slavs, the deep and wide hall only had a few columns supporting the square roof, and the windows were more than the castles of the southern lords, so the hall appeared very bright, without a sense of oppression and darkness, and the courtiers entered through the gate, and they stood at the bottom of the steps and bowed respectfully to Arrod.

"Arrod, my husband." Arjord's wife, Princess Josie, also entered through the side door, wearing a gold tiara, her beautiful golden head, a dark green dress, a silver chain loosely wrapped around her slender waist, and two beautiful long-necked swans embroidered on the wide cuffs, and when Princess Josie walked in with her maids, she curtsy towards Arold on the throne of the lord.

"Please sit down, my beautiful wife." With a smile on his face, Arrod stood up and stretched out his hand to guide Princess Josie to the seat beside her, and the courtiers also saluted the Countess, who sat gracefully in her place.

"I wonder what the Earl has summoned us for?" Brother Elvet saw the two honorable Earls and Countesses seated, and then came out and asked Arrod.

"How many merchants have Brother Elvet recently come from the Duchy of Mason?" Arold said to Brother Elvet with his elbows on the wooden armrests, his legs crossed in front of him.

"Well, why did the Earl suddenly ask about this, it has been a month since there were no merchants from the Duchy of Mason, and they should usually come to buy furs and grain at this time." Brother Elvet was dressed in a monk's gray robe, as simple as a monk, but he had a golden cross around his neck, and Brother Elvet thought carefully at Arold's questioning and replied.

"Soros, I remember that you Jews also have a gathering point in Mason, tell me what happened there?" Arold turned to Soros, a Jew, and asked.

"Yes, Lord Earl, as far as I know, there is a commotion against the Wendell family in the Duchy of Mason, some people have incited the nobles to point the finger at the Wendell family, and there is also gossip that soon the nobles will revolt against the rule of the Duke of Abel." Soros, a Jew, dressed in his own Jewish costume with crooked blacks on both sides of his cheeks, did not have a country of his own, so the people were very closely connected and well-informed.

"What are the prices of grain and leather in Mason's grain market?" Arold suddenly asked a seemingly unrelated question, but it was actually important.

"Superior to the Earl." Soros, a Jew, hurriedly replied.

"It looks like there will really be a civil war." Arrod's face showed worry, he leaned his whole body back in his chair, and muttered to himself, the so-called soldiers and horses did not move the grain and grass first, someone must have hoarded grain to make weapons, in preparation for the rebellion.

"Arrod, my brother~~~." Princess Josie's face turned pale, and she clenched her hand and looked anxiously at her husband, Arrod.

"Rest assured, my beautiful wife, Fort Mason is not so easy to attack." Arold stretched out his hand to hold Princess Josie's cold little hand, and said comforting words to the beautiful Princess Josie.

"Lord Earl, I don't believe that such a big thing was done by Count Lauzitz alone, his territory of Lauzitz County was destroyed, and he simply did not have the financial resources to buy the nobles." Brother Elvet said to Arold.

"Well, but now we can't find out who is behind him, and I will write a few letters at once to the Count of Thuringia, the Count of Weimar, and the Count of Praun, and these three counts must not fall to the side of Count Lauz." Arold decided to stabilize the three vassals diplomatically first, and must not allow the civil war to expand beyond control. r1152
