The army is killed, and the soldiers are treacherous. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

At the beginning of the war, Viscount William personally led a small number of cavalry to storm Elbuck Castle, and with great pressure, the defenders really thought that they were about to face the all-out siege of the Custer family, and they lit the red signal smoke, causing the family army that had already marched nearly half the way to turn back.

Old Elbuk may not have known that this was the enemy's strategy, but the floating military spirit of his soldiers was something he could not suppress, and at first he turned back and consciously conserved his physical strength and sent more scouts, but as he got closer, the Nord warriors became more and more relaxed, and the marching speed was getting faster and faster.

The Nord military system has no cavalry troops, the level of scouts is limited, and the subordinate troops of Viscount William are very skillful in ambushing, and the combination of the two finally caused the two hundred Nords of the old Elbuck to be ambushed by the Custer family when they were about to leave the valley.

At this time, the morale of the two hundred Nords had fallen from the peak, and the average physical strength was lost by nearly half, but such an army was still not something that the troops of the Custer family could easily gnaw on, and the strength of the Nord infantry was world-famous. On the slope of the stone wall, there were twenty Vibian archers condescendingly pouring arrows under the protection of fifty Vibian infantry, plus the canyon flat Viscount William personally led fifty horsemen to repeatedly charge and cut...... Viscount William did not send the knights into the battlefield for the first time, but after a considerable part of the Nord infantry climbed the canyon and fought with the condescending Vigian infantry, he chose to take the lead at the right time and attack the iron cavalry.

The scattered Nord could not stop the cavalry charge, and the inability to stop the cavalry charge on the medieval battlefield meant the beginning of defeat.

After the victory was established, the old earl was not given a chance to surrender at all, and Viscount William personally cut off the opponent's head with a two-handed heavy sword.

After the death of the main general, the momentum of the two hundred Nords was dealt a huge blow, and after being repeatedly attacked by the cavalry in the rain of arrows, the rout became irreversible.

In this battle, more than 150 of the 200 Nords were killed, 27 were captured, more than 20 escaped, and more than half of the more than 150 people killed were killed by the Vigya cavalry themselves in the process of dispersing. I wonder how a two-legged Nord could outrun a Virgian on horseback, but after a collapse of reason, even a well-trained soldier is as blind as a pig.

This two-hundred-man army suffered more than 70 casualties at an absolute disadvantage, and its morale collapsed only after the main general was killed, and in many senses it was already a strong army, worthy of being a heavy infantry inherited and relied on by the old nobles.

In the course of the melee that did not last long, more than 20 of the 50 Vigian infantry were killed and wounded, almost half of them, 20 Vigian archers were still hiding in the rear and were still killed and wounded by the heavy axes and javelins of the Nords, 8 people were killed and wounded by the 50 Vigian cavalry, and after a big battle, Viscount William's 120 elite troops lost one-third of the casualties.

Therefore, Viscount William, who was dripping blood in his heart, took the head of the old Elbuck, and led the cavalry to storm the castle of Elbuk non-stop, of course, there would not be such an exaggerated thing as the cavalry attacking the city, it was just a coercion to persuade him to surrender, and it was not difficult to take the castle of Elbuc without bloodshed under the "persuasion" of the old earl's head and twenty-seven prisoners.

In fact, it would be better for Viscount William to return to Fort Djerborough first, and let the news of the defeat and the death of the old earl ferment, and it would be easier to capture Fort Elbuk, but considering that the economic losses suffered by Fort Albuk due to the chaos in the process were about equal to his own economic losses...... After all, Viscount William still chose to continue the fight without stopping and take over Fort Elbuk completely.

After this battle, the Castels will own the castle of Djerpo, the castle of Elbuc, the villages of Mazen, Jayek, and Loire.

There are a total of 15,000 people in Shuangbao and three villages, and the strength can be said to have become the noble upper class in the Kingdom of Vigia.

The only thing that is not so good is that these two forts and three villages are all located at the border of the Nord Kingdom and the Kingdom of Virginia, which usually has little influence, and even benefits as a trade route between the two countries, but once the Nord and Virginia go to war, the entire Karst family will inevitably bear the brunt.

............

Fort Djerbo, inside a dark prison.

Matthew, the original barracks instructor, had been tortured to the point of being inhuman, and Rod, who was supposed to be drunk at the castle's victory celebration, walked into the prison torture room in a black robe.

This is a second-level prison only ancillary facilities, blood-mottled torture instruments, foul and rancid smell, Zhu Peng covered his mouth and nose with a white silk handkerchief for a moment when he entered, and then he stepped in.

When the old butler John Watson saw this scene, his tense nerves relaxed slightly, such a young master was the young master he was familiar with, although there had been great changes in life and death, some details of his behavior were still retained.

In fact, if it weren't for these details, Old John would have suspected that the young master of the Custer family had changed his soul.

"Five hundred dinars were found in the cellar of his house, and they were well hidden, and if I hadn't gone there myself, I am afraid that I would not have been able to find the hole in the earth he had dug...... "Five hundred dinars, even if each one is a small copper coin, is a lot in a cloth bag, which is quite a small weight.

Zhu Peng reached out and picked it up, took the money bag to the eyes and nose of Matthew, who was hanging his hands, and he whispered:

"Instructor Matthew, you are also an old man who has followed my father for many years, I think you will not take the risk of betraying the Custer family if it is only five hundred dinars, you know my father's usual methods towards betrayers...... These 500 dinars can allow you to drink the best wine in the tavern, play with the most beautiful women, and enjoy it for a while, and you must be very unwilling to be caught without spending a penny, right?"

Speaking of this, Zhu Peng disregarded the blood stain and the smell and came to Matthew's ear and said:

"Tell me who bought you, and I will prepare poisoned wine and women for Uncle Matthew, and send you on your way with aristocratic etiquette, and it will not be in vain for you to follow my father. ”

On the continent of Calradia, the nobility had the privilege of "dying laughing" if the situation allowed.

After getting drunk with a large amount of wine and playing with women, the waiters would pour the poisoned wine at the most prosperous moment of the nobles, and many warriors who licked blood with knives envied this method of death, because it represented the status they had pursued all their lives: nobles.

“...... Young Master, Matthew has served the Viscount all his life, how could I betray the Viscount? The money is really not mine...... Someone framed me. "After all, he is a strong warrior, even if he is tortured, even if he is scarred, the logic of his words is not messed up at all, and he makes a refutation for himself.

"Look at these cloths with money, they have been soaked with dust, which means that they have been buried in your cellar for some time, and if anyone spends five hundred dinars and a lot of time just to frame you a little instructor...... Matthew, then you have to accept your fate, I want to kill you, spend two or three hundred dinars in the tavern to hire five elite killers to find an opportunity to ambush you, can you escape?" sneering, Zhu Peng turned around and picked up the red-hot soldering iron from the stove on one side, and then he turned around and pressed it on Matthew's lower abdomen, accompanied by a hoarse scream, and the faint smell of cooked meat spread.

"Count Magali of Živa Cheze, how much money did you promise? Five hundred dinars is just the first payment, right?Without three thousand copper coins, how could you risk your life and participate in the assassination of me?" Throwing away the soldering iron, he grabbed Matthew's hair violently and made him raise his head to look at him, and when he said the word "Magali", Zhu Peng obviously saw the pupils of the other party dilate...... After all, they are not really professional spies, and when a long-hidden secret is suddenly exposed, there will be some uncontrolled reactions.

“...... I already know that it is the work of the Count of Magali, and tell me everything else you know, and I will give you a good time. ”

“............”

Matthew seemed to be stupid, stunned and was dragged by Zhu Peng's hair without saying a word, but Zhu Peng was no longer interested in continuing to play with him.

"Uncle John, immediately send scouts to reconnoiter the direction of the Riva Cheze, and report directly to me whatever the outcome...... Remember, strictly confidential. Turning around and walking out of the torture room, Zhu Peng gave an order to the old butler who followed him while walking.

As a new aristocracy, Viscount William Custer laid the foundation of the city in the war, Djerbo Castle is at the junction of Nord and Vygia, and at the same time is surrounded by the big city of the Nord Kingdom, and the two big cities of Vigia, Živache and Kurau are surrounded in a triangle, Djerbo Fort is in the center of the triangle formed by the three big cities of these two countries, and the commercial tax revenue in peacetime can be imagined, and the degree of greed by the three parties can also be imagined.

However, Count Claes, who was in charge of Kulau, was deeply trusted by King Vigia Rogork, and Kulau was also close to the royal city of Zhivadin, so he did not dare to stretch out his claws to Djerboburg.

As a neighbor of Virginia, Nord's lord in charge of Wocheze would storm the castle of the neighboring nobles if he did not have enough reason, and if he was not careful, he would provoke a full-scale war between the two countries, and he could not do it himself.

Only among the three big cities, the Riwache was the strongest because of the coast, and the Earl Magali, who was in charge of the city, was in his prime and ambitious, and Viscount William sent his youngest son to study in Riwache, which meant to befriend the great nobleman Magali. But now it seems that people do not look down on the olive branch handed by the nouveau riche of the country, and what Count Magali wants is the castle of Djerbor, and even the addition of an Elbuk castle is acceptable.

Even if he caused a war between the two countries, he threw out a castle to appease the anger and even buy off the king, and the remaining castle and three villages would be enough for Magali to digest for a while.

Accompanied by Old John, under the gaze of the strong prisoners around the second-level prison, Zhu Peng walked out of the prison. Viscount William crushed the old Elbuk in tactics and battles, but after all, he was born as a mercenary, and he was completely crushed by Earl Magali of Riwa Cheze in terms of strategic wisdom, if Zhu Peng's calculation in his heart was correct, at this moment Magali had already mobilized elite troops to march on the road to Fort Jerber.

(The sandpiper and the clam compete, the fisherman profits, and the praying mantis catches the cicada and the yellow finch behind...... In this way, Rod Custer's death was not an accident at all, he was tampered with on his horses, and the person who did it would not be Kyle, the substitute for Elbuk. Rather...... Miss Anina Poyer, the "Rose of Živachetze", the favorite niece of the Count of Magali. ）

From the memory of his mind to find out the snow-white-skinned, gorgeous and colorful aristocratic girl, Rod's memory of this woman is completely admiration and heartbeat, she herself may not be much more beautiful than Li'er, but the aristocratic temperament on her body, cold and glamorous posture, it is indeed a lot of points for it, and it is no wonder that the aristocratic teenagers who are fascinated by Riwa Cheze are fascinated and fall under her white gauze skirt.

But who would have thought that this gorgeous rose would have its spikes smeared with deadly poisonous juice?

Zhu Peng returned to his room in the castle, opened the map of the country and the roster of his own military strength, if the war between the two sides was about to begin, he would have to use a ruined city to face the world's first-class powerful army.

(But I can't lose, and I can't abandon the city and flee...... Otherwise, compared to this "chess game", I can say that I was cleared out of the game in advance. ）
