Whether it's to maintain the stability of the kingdom's territory or to defend one's own territorial possessions. The armies of the royal family in the southern counties of the kingdom and the knights of the lords and nobles will be vigilant against the invasion of the centaurs when spring arrives every year.

Naturally, Kasha's Prairie Territory could not stay out of the situation, after all, when spring came every year, the entire Brettnia County was within the range of centaurs, and the Praeli Territory located in the southwestern part of the county was one of the areas where centaurs came to invade the most. In fact, all the nobles of the territories that were divided into the counties directly under the royal family of Brettnia County, their fiefs were in the attack area of the centaurs, and they happened to form a barrier against the centaurs in the territory directly under the royal family in the county - the royal family would also have their own plans when they canonized the nobles of the real power, and the territories they were divided from were basically located on the border of the kingdom's territory, or areas with relatively poor resources and not suitable for development. Or maybe it's an area surrounded by a lot of aliens and monsters. Basically, except for the aristocratic forces that were attached to them at the beginning of the founding of the country, the territories allocated by the nobles of the rest of the territories were generally like this.

Therefore, when spring comes every year, in addition to considering the spring plowing work in the territory, Kasha must also strengthen the defense of the territory to resist the invasion of centaurs.

This year is no exception, due to the appearance of the Travelers and the cooperation with Kasha to run a business, at the end of last year, Prailly Ling can be said to have made a lot of money. There is a significant surplus of this proceeds after the budgets for the coming year are removed. Except for a small half of this surplus for emergencies, the rest was used by Kasha to invest in the construction of defenses in various villages in the territory. Almost all villages in Prairly have been fenced several metres high, and trenches more than two metres deep have been dug on the outside of the fence. These facilities are effective in defending the village from being easily breached by invading centaurs. In addition, Kasha generously equipped the militia units formed by the various villages with thick cloth armor and iron spears, so that these militias would not have to use farm tools or firewood knives to fight against centaurs.

In addition, the mercenary group that nominally belonged to the mercenary union registered in the county, but was actually a private army secretly recruited by Kasha, was also summoned by Kasha in the name of 'mercenary' to strengthen the defense of the territory. At the same time, Kasha also really hired several other mercenary teams of various sizes to accompany the defense.

And the traversers who live in Prairly's territory are not immune. As the leader of the adventuring team, Li Xiang found Kasha, and Mao offered to help Kasha resist the invasion of the centaurs.

For this reason, Kasha is naturally very welcome. The combat effectiveness of the Xuanyuan Adventure Regiment is seen with his own eyes, although there are only more than 30 people, but everyone has the strength above the middle-level and lower-ranking fighters (the strength shown by everyone during the reconquest of Harudel City). Kasha thinks that among the knights of the Knights under his command, there are probably not many who can defeat the people of the Xuanyuan Adventure Group alone. For this time, the other party automatically invited Ying to come to assist Kasha, and naturally welcomed it.

When it comes to the payment method of remuneration, Li Xiang generously said that the assistance this time can be completely exempted from fees. There are two reasons he gave for this: the first is that his party and Kasha's forces have long been bound by interests, and if the centaurs cause damage to Kasha's territory, it is equivalent to destroying the economic resources of Li Xiang and the others, so it is incumbent on everyone to come forward to help. Secondly, Li Xiang said that the cooperation between you and me has always been very pleasant, and since the Xuanyuan Adventure Group and the Leopold family have established a friendship, it is naturally necessary to help each other. Talking about money hurts feelings......

For Li Xiang's 'impatience for justice and righteousness' behavior, Kasha was naturally grateful, and at the same time, he became more and more convinced that cooperating with the Xuanyuan Adventure Group was definitely the most correct choice he had made.

Of course, what Kasha didn't know was that the promise made by Li Xiang this time seemed to be a bit of a loss, but in fact, it also had a lot of benefits for the middle buddies in the crossing.

The current traversers don't need to worry about money, all they have to do is to improve their strength as soon as possible. However, due to the fact that everyone's Warcraft inheritance and advancement method is different from the cultivation system of human warriors in the Iber world, only through fighting and killing can you accumulate energy (experience points) to advance.

But now, the monsters around Prailly's territory have been killed by the traversing crowd and are almost extinct, and everyone has no resources to upgrade in a short period of time. It just so happened that at this time, Prailly Leader ushered in the annual centaur invasion, which was like someone brought a pillow to the traversers when they wanted to doze off.

Now that there is a huge amount of 'experience points' that can be used for advancement, it is about to be sent to the traversers, and a small reward is naturally only a small benefit. The crowd was also happy to give up these benefits in exchange for further friendship with Kashya. Why not do it?

County Breitnia, near Prairly Collar.

A caravan rushed across the plain with all its might, panic and despair written on the faces of everyone in the caravan.

Because they were very unlucky, they actually encountered the centaur robbery ^ on their way.

The caravan fled in a panic along the way, gradually deviating from its original path. Fortunately, the guide who led the caravan had a good understanding of the distribution of cities and villages in the county. After some analysis, it was found that the nearest place in their area was the town of Prailly. So the caravan did not hesitate to flee in the direction of Prailly.

Above the clouds, a goshawk soared in the sky overlooking the earth, and after seeing the wind^dust in the distance and the fleeing chariot and horse caravan, the eagle's eyes flashed with a sharp look, and then a glide spread its wings in the opposite direction from which the chariot and horse galloped.

"Let's go! Let's go! ”

"It's a short walk ahead of Praley, and we'll be safe when we enter the town!"

The shouts of the guide lifted the spirits of the desperate fleeing caravansera, and their steps were full of wind, and they just wanted to escape from this terrible wilderness as quickly as possible.

Suddenly, the sound of hooves behind the caravan shook the sky, and everyone's faces suddenly changed miserably.

"Oh no, the centaur bandits are chasing you!" For a moment, panicked cries resounded through the team.

Along the way, the original caravan of more than 300 people is now only more than 200 people left, among which the hired mercenaries and the caravan's own escort team have changed from the original 200 people to less than 100 people now. Although the town is now far away, there is still a considerable distance, and I don't know if the caravan will be able to escape the attack of the centaurs this time.

There were less than 100 people left in the escort team, and everyone was wounded. I saw the captain of the escort team leading the team shouting: "Don't panic! All the chariots and horses accelerated forward, and the convoy gathered in formation, ready to meet the enemy! ”

The crowd calmed down for a while, order was restored, and the retreat was accelerated.

The convoys gathered from various positions to hold the rear of the caravan and lined up to meet the galloping centaur warriors.
