In order to conquer Mecklenburg Castle in one fell swoop, and to be confident in the siege towers handed down by his ancestors, the Rosstock chieftain pressed all his forces like a bet, but Arold used his carelessness to deliberately put the Slavic soldiers into the city, using the advantage of the pikemen and spears to consume their forces at the narrow gates, and at the same time burned the proud siege towers of the Rostock chieftains, the towers that burned like torches, and the Slavs who jumped off the towers with fire all over the towers, The soldiers of the Rostock chieftain began to waver, and the leaders of the various clans also had a little ninety-nine in their hearts.

At this moment, the last straw that crushed morale appeared, the camp in the rear was actually ignited, and the sound of trumpets sounded faintly, which made the soldiers in front think that they were being attacked by Arold's reinforcements, and the already low morale finally collapsed, and the Slavs fled in panic, and at first there were leaders who tried to block them, but more and more people fled, and the pikemen in the castle and the knights on the city walls also began to counterattack, so the leaders fled without looking back.

"Chief, let's run away, I've brought you a horse." The Great Shield warrior, loyal to the Chieftain of Rostock, led a scorn-colored horse to the dejected Chieftain of Rostock, lifted him onto his horse and fled.

"Javelinmen pursue the enemy." Arold saw the Slavs retreating like a tide under the walls of the castle, and those who fled were often killed by the crossbowmen on the arrow tower, but Arold was not satisfied, he remembered the famous saying that he should not be a scholar and overlord, and immediately sent javelin cavalry to chase them. It is important to wipe out the Manpower of the Rostock as much as possible.

The javelinmen did not even carry javelins, they used sabers made by Arrod, and they came and went on their horses like the wind, and when they saw the back or head of the Slavs, they slashed them with their knives, and they were often hit with a single blow under the drive of the horses, but the number of javelinmen was too small, and the Slavs fled very scattered, almost in all directions, and only killed more than 70 people and captured more than 30 people.

"How did you get rid of such a little?" Harvey crossed her arms and leaned against the burned-out wagon, and she watched the scattered Slavs flee. And the javelinmen behind are chasing around.

"Harvey. We did what you asked us to do, and the reward you said didn't count. Standing beside Harvey was a stocky, stocky middle-aged man in dirty leather armor and a bald black beard, biting on an apple pulled from a burnt baggage cart.

"Don't worry, you old dog. Lord Earl Arold will reward you. Harvey looked around. Dozens of people gradually came out of the middle-aged man. These people are wrapped in various armors, and the weapons in their hands are also varied, and their faces also have a look of hip-hop and hip-hop.

"Then let your count put his money in the old place. We'll take it ourselves. The bald man said to Harvey.

"No, you have to come back to the castle with me." Harvey waved her hand, she rejected the bald man's suggestion and said to him instead.

"What? You stinky bitch, I know you're not well-intentioned, we helped you and your bullshit count, and now you want to take credit for us. A red-haired man standing to the left of the balding man grinned and pointed a pickaxe in his hand at Harvey.

"Wait, let her finish." The bald man raised his left hand, he squinted his eyes at Harvey, who suddenly broke into his hiding camp half a year ago, but did not expect that she had only been seen for half a year and was already a courtier who ruled the Earl of Mecklenburgshire, and there were even rumors in the market that she had a close relationship with the Earl of Germania.

"Boss, don't forget that we are bandits, and if we fall into the hands of nobles, do you know what will happen to you and your brothers? I don't want to be hanged at a crossroads, with corpses to be eaten by crows. The red-haired man glared at the woman who had bewitched his leader, who he had distrusted in the first place, but his words were interrupted by his own leader.

"I know what I'm doing. Don't forget who's the leader. The bald man looked directly at the red-haired man, and the red-haired man had to bow his head and retreat under his authority, as this bandit operating on the border of Mecklenburg County, he obviously felt that Arold's rule was consolidating day by day, and the border patrol system and outposts established by Arold made his life with his companions more and more difficult, and he had to give himself a way to live, so when Harvey found him, he asked him to attack Mecklenburg Castle by the Rostockians, He led his bandits to burn down the Rostock's rear camp and baggage, and he agreed.

"It's still your old dog who understands the truth." Harvey knew very well what the bald man thought, which is why she dared to find this group of outlaws, in order to ensure the trade routes of Mecklenburgshire, Arold at the beginning of his reign tried his best to fight the bandits rampant in his territory, although the bald man was very cunning to hide in the border forest, but the bandits were getting more and more difficult, they had to be exterminated by Arold or leave the two ways to go.

"Little ones, pack up here and leave, Harvey and I'll go to the castle with you." The bald man looked in the direction of the castle, Arold's soldiers were chasing and killing deserters, looking at the pikemen who were neatly lined up like a rainbow, and shouted with spears to stab the deserters over, the bald man involuntarily wiped the sweat on his forehead, he was old and really didn't want to leave his homeland, but he didn't want to be sent to the gallows by Arold, it seemed that he had only one way to go.

The bandits took away the money and food, and then left the Slav camp in a hurry, and lay the corpses of the guards in the camp, this group of bandits could kill all the guards in the camp quietly under the sudden attack, which is why Harvey wanted to win them over. Watching his men leave, the bald man followed Harvey towards the smoky Mecklenburg Castle, where the occasional javelin cavalry saw them patrolling, but when they saw Harvey, they respectfully left a few riders to protect them, and left to clean up the battlefield.

"Your Excellency Earl, when did you arrange for reinforcements?" Julian wiped the dust off his face, his body was stained with enemy blood, and the blade in his hand was covered with gaps, enough to see the fierceness of the battle on the walls, but luckily they survived.

"I don't know what happened, but I can guess who did it." Arold sat on a rock, Shirley wiping the blood from his forehead beside him, and two squires carefully removing his gauntlets and armor, while Arold was at their mercy, exhausted from the day's fighting.

"You owe me a favor, Aroude." At this moment, Harvey rode a horse from the Javelinmen and slowly walked into the city gate, the smell of the corpses on the ground made Shirley frown, but Harvey didn't care, she shouted to Arold as she walked.

"I knew it was you." Arold stood up with the help of his little attendant, the gate of the tower opened, and the surviving women, children, and old men came out, cheering with excitement when they saw that the castle was safe and sound, and some of the monks had begun to carry the wounded Germanic warriors into the tower and help clear the battlefield.

Fearing that the corpses would cause a terrible plague, Arold ordered the monks and those who carried the corpses to be transported away from the castle and the people of the settlement, digging deep pits and burying them with lime and spirits, and that area would become a forbidden area, knowing full well that many castles had fallen not by fighting, but by invisible diseases and germs.
