Chapter 22: The First Sight of the Yorkburgh Barbarians

"You're not a puppy, how can you smell it, and who can smell it." Qin Feng had a slight smile on his calm face, although Shilina would be very lively sometimes, but sometimes she would be helpful, though...... Only once in a while.

Xilina suddenly stopped her movements and glanced at Qin Feng, with a dissatisfied look on her face. "How can you call yourself a puppy, I'm not." But Shirina didn't say it sensibly, she knew that this was Qin Feng playing tricks on her, because she had been tricked more than once. And this guy always speaks a lot of new words, and he simply can't parry it.

"Hum ....." Xilina wrinkled her nose and snorted fiercely, quickly raised her leg and kicked Qin Feng's calf, and then ran away.

Since he crossed over, Qin Feng has not stopped exercising himself every day, and now his combat power can be compared to the guards around him. So he found out about Shirina's small movements at the beginning, but he didn't hide, and today Xilina reminded herself, so she should be a reward for her!

The night in Bul Town was still cold, and the whining wind blew into the study with a biting cold, and Qin Feng, who was standing in front of the window, still felt the slightest chill even though he was wearing a velvet. Raising his head and looking at the snow line that had now reached the mountain pass outside the town, Qin Feng raised his hand and closed the window, winter has come!

That night, after all the merchants in the town of Bull had left, winter from the north came to the town of Bull completely.

Overnight, the whole town was completely covered with snow, looking into the distance, everything that came into view was snow white, the forest with the stars last night was now only dry branches, standing proudly in the wind and snow, maybe there is still this green on the branches, but in the cold air, I am afraid there is no life for a long time.

Bulltown on the way to Fort York.

The war horse chewed its head excitedly, and a thick mist erupted from its big nostrils, which was formed by the cold of water vapor. It can be seen how cold the temperature is at this time, but for these war horses from the barbarian tribes of the far northern steppe, this weather is their favorite. They stride with a strong stride, and the thick snow is not an obstacle for them at all, and from time to time they run gracefully and gently.

"Appeal ....." Sirigan tightened the reins, his bearskin hat face flushed with the cold wind, but his face could not contain a look of excitement. He liked the snowy environment, and he also liked the strong and beautiful war horse under him.

"Well, Sirigon, these horses are very good." The old butler, wrapped in thick fur on the carriage, craned his neck, and was very envious when he saw the majestic appearance of Siricorn riding a war horse. But envy is envy, let him ride those tall horses, it is better to kill him, and now he can't stand the cold wind.

"Yes, all very good." Sirigang patted the horse's back, "These are the war horses of the northern barbarians, their war horses are the best in the empire, but the number is very small, it is difficult to buy, even if I have only heard of it before, I didn't expect Baron Karis to have so many here." ”

"The young master is farther than we can see, or he guessed that there will be this day early on, so he started preparing at the beginning." The butler wrapped his velvet tightly and said. He raised his eyes and glanced at Sirigon, he felt a little uncomfortable with Sirigon's address to the young master, "Baron Karis! "Sirigon still thinks of himself as a member of the Renault family.

"Maybe that'....... so!." Cirigon's non-committal to the old butler's words, who could think so far? Even if he himself admired Baron Karis and thought that he was the most capable nobleman of the younger generation of the Empire, would a small baron have this ability?

The old butler could clearly see that Cirigon's disbelief, but he was not prepared to say more, Siricorn was not a young man, he was an old man about his own age. Rich in experience, it is impossible for you to impress him or convince him with words, the only way is to let him stay by the young master's side and see how the young master does it.

…………….

Siricorn took off his hat and slapped the snow off his hat, and was about to remind his subordinates to speed up, when he was awakened by the shouts of the guards in front of him.

"Enemy attack... Enemy attack... It was barbarians, more than a hundred people, all with weapons. Two cavalry sentries galloped back from the front, their faces a little panicked, but not afraid.

"Leave 20 of the guard wagons, and the others will come with me to meet the barbarians." Hearing that there were only more than 100 people on the other side, Sirigon's heart sank, although the other party was all strong and tall barbarians, but for these cavalrymen riding barbarian war horses, more than 100 people were not a threat.

The barbarian war horses are all produced in the barbarians living in the grasslands in the far north, these war horses are 2 meters tall at the shoulder, and the total height is close to 3 meters, even those barbarians who are more than 2 meters tall will not be much stronger than humans when they are hit by these galloping giant beasts.

"Wait," said the old butler, calling to Ciregon, "I will go with you, for you must know that we are now in the vicinity of Fort York, and this seems to be the territory of the barbarians of Fort York, and perhaps we have met them. ”

Sirigan thought for a while and nodded, the old butler was right, the purpose of himself and the others coming here was to resolve the misunderstanding with the barbarians of Fort York, and if the conflict was deepened because of a mistake, it would be a big trouble.

After a while, the cavalry lined up in a neat formation and ran forward, the sound of coaxing horses' hooves exploded like thunder, and the galloping horses trampled the snow all over the ground into a muddy mess.

The barbarians not far away obviously felt the vibration of the horse's hooves, but they had never encountered this situation at all, they had no idea what the sound was coming from, and could only observe the surroundings vigilantly, and some of the irascible barbarians also waved the crude weapons in their hands and let out an anxious roar.

In a few moments, the barbarians spotted the enemy around the corner, roared and ran with excitement. But gradually the ranks stopped, and even some of the barbarian warriors instinctively took a few steps back.

When had they ever seen something like this, what was that dark cloud that was constantly thundering? Are those humans? But what are those humans riding, is it a war horse? But how can it be so big?

Human beings are afraid of the unknown, they will be afraid, and this is the same with barbarians, but none of the brave barbarians escaped, even if they stood there motionless, were they scared stupid?

"These barbarians are really worthy of being known as the only race that can confront orcs and barbarians," Sirican rode on his horse and looked at the barbarian warriors in front of him, and sighed sincerely: "No wonder Baron Karis wants to take the initiative to ease relations, if there is the help of these barbarians, the pressure on the orcs in Nabul Town will definitely be reduced a lot." ”

"Stop......" Counting the distance, Sirigon raised his right hand and shouted as the galloping horse was about to crash into the barbarian.

The well-trained cavalry tightened the reins in an instant at the command of Sirigon, and the entire cavalry contingent seemed to have only a split second between galloping and stopping.

The old butler sitting behind a cavalryman was almost shaken off his horse by the sudden violent movement, but when he came back to his senses, the only thought in his heart was this: "Sure enough, he is worthy of being the cavalry captain of the Renault family." ”
