Section 147 Sir Will's calculations

The appearance of the Mecklenburg Legion made the town threatened by the rebels like a bird, even if Baron Fred himself rode to the gate of the city and identified himself to his father-in-law standing at the gate, it did not immediately make the people of the town open the gate, after all, if Baron Fred was threatened by the rebels and tried to open the gate, then it would cause a catastrophe.

"Open the gates, it's me, have you forgotten what I look like?" Baron Fred was impatient with the gates, which had not been put down, and he took off his hat, pointed to his face, and said to the people on the castle tower that every winter he brought his wife and children here, and that they were familiar to the people inside.

"I'm sorry, Lord Baron, but we need to know exactly how you got here?" The soldiers on the tower shouted loudly to Baron Fred, he meant that the road to the outside was blocked by the rebels, how did the Baron get past the blockade, if this question could not be answered clearly, they would never open the city gates.

"Did you just wake up, or were you drunk, didn't you look at the army behind me?" Baron Fred was so angry that his nose was crooked, and he kindly brought the army to rescue his father-in-law, but he was locked out of the door.

"Whew." The soldier on the tower craned his neck and glanced at the neatly clad army outside, of course he would not think of these people as peasant rebels, but Baron Fred's strength was well known, and he could not afford to hire an army of this size even if he sold all his belongings.

"These are the troops of the Duke of Mecklenburg, and they are the reinforcements I have invited." Baron Fred had to explain that sometimes these hillbillies were stubborn.

"Duke of Mecklenburg, why haven't I heard of it?" The soldier reached out and scratched his scalp in the broad-brimmed round helmet, and he frowned and asked the others that information was not developed in this era. After Arjod became a duke, the news only spread to the big towns.

"It's Lord Mason's sister-in-law, Princess Josie's husband." Baron Fred sighed, and he had no choice but to move Arryd's wife out.

"Princess Josie, Duke Mason's sister-in-law, I'll go tell your lordship." When the soldier heard Princess Josie's name, he immediately handed the halberd in his hand to his companion. Walk down the gatehouse and report to the mayor of town.

"Wow~~~." After a few moments, the town's drawbridge was lowered, and the closed gates opened a crack through which a man in Germanic robes who looked to be in his fifties stepped out, followed by several retinues, crowded with curious people and soldiers armed with halberds.

"Fred is really you, what the hell is going on?" Baron Fred's father-in-law, who is also the mayor of the town, came to Baron Fred's side and said.

"Don't say anything. Open the gates and greet Princess Josie's husband, the Duke of Mecklenburg! Baron Fred hurriedly jumped off his horse and said to his father-in-law.

"Oh, there's finally a member of the Herman family to restore order." Listening to his son-in-law's words, the mayor finally breathed a sigh of relief, and he put his two hands on his big belly, while the people and soldiers inside the city gate cheered.

When the gates of the town finally opened, Arold rode on his mount. The black lion flag fluttered high behind him, and the Mecklenburg legionnaires marched into the town in a neat procession. The soldiers also had smiles on their faces, after all, it was better to be able to spend the night in a warm house than to camp in the wilderness. The townspeople spontaneously lined the streets, cheering at the Mecklenburg legionnaires, and many enthusiastic and unrestrained girls saw the strong, well-armoured Mecklenburg soldiers. I couldn't help but run up and take the initiative to kiss.

"The reputation of the Herman family is so useful." Arold couldn't help but look at the warm atmosphere in front of him, and said to his brother, Count Yves.

"That's nature, the Herman family has ruled this land for a long time, and of course the Masons agree with their right to rule." Count Yves said naturally.

"Tell the soldiers that we are suppressing the rebellion in the name of Princess Josie." Arrod quickly turned his head. Said to the attendant beside him.

"What are you going to do?" Count Yves asked puzzledly, weren't they going to the Duchy of Bavaria, just passing through the Duchy of Mason?

"If you have an advantage, why not use it?" Arold said to his brother, clutching the reins of his horse, straightening his waist and wearing fine armor, showing his best side to the townspeople.

At the same time that Arjord's Mecklenburg legion was stationed in the town, Sir Will also received news that the self-proclaimed Sir Mason Serf, Liberator and Warrior of Christ, was resting in a breached town in Mason's domain, and in his sleep he dreamed that the entire Duchy of Mason was subjugated at his feet, the nobles were humbled down before him, the diocesan bishops bowed to him, and a duke's crown was placed on his head.

"Ping-pong, ping-pong, ping-pong~~~." Suddenly there was a fierce knock at the door, which woke Sir Will from his dream, and he sat up naked, and beside him lay a woman who was also naked, the wife of a merchant.

"What's the matter?" Sir Will stepped down and put on his trousers, and the bed had been tossed by him all night and the woman had made a few noises and turned over to reveal the snow-white twin peaks, and Sir Will was pleased with the plump woman, and decided to just imprison her husband instead of hang him.

"Sir is not good, one of our armies has been wiped out." When Sir Will opened the door, he was greeted by a disarrayed peasant soldier.

"What the hell is going on? Is Duke Mason coming back? Sir Will asked hurriedly.

In fact, he knew very well that he was just taking advantage of the fact that Duke Mason's life and death were unknown and the court of the Duchy of Mason was in chaos, relying on the money he got from Count Lauzitz, who was killed by Arold, to recruit mercenaries to incite serfs to rebel and gather such an army.

"I don't know if Duke Mason has come back or not, it's a bunch of northerners, northerners, on horseback, who have defeated us." The peasant soldier stammered and explained to Sir Will.

"Northerners?" Listening to the words of the peasant soldiers, Sir Will's brows furrowed, if Duke Mason wanted to come back, it should be from the south instead of the north, could it be that foreign troops had stepped into the Duchy of Mason? (To be continued......)
