vs 21 The death of a squire
The battle was over before dark, it was a one-sided slaughter, and the thousands of goblins around the goblin leader had some combat strength, so that the cavalry brigade that rushed to kill had a little casualties, and Tairo was so angry that he scolded his mother.

The goblin leader escaped and fled into the Red Rain Forest, where Taylor was severely reprimanded by Ser Ganard in front of all the soldiers.
Gray has always felt a little strange, at the beginning of the encirclement set up by Sir Garnard did not care about the road leading to the Red Rain Forest from the goblin camp, although it may be the reason for the lack of troops, but the goblins who broke through in the battle did not run in the direction of the Red Rain Forest, and the goblin leader really had no other way out at the last moment, so he went headlong into the Red Rain Forest.
Is there something terrible in the forest?' Gray thought.
A flock of scavenging crows hovered in the sky, attracted by the smell of blood, and orders had been given to collect the corpses and burn them, which must be done before dark to prevent plague and disease.
Gray wanted to go to the main Goblin Camp to check it out, but the cavalry brigade surrounded the main area of the Goblin Camp and prevented the other troops from entering.
The Earl, perhaps a little old, was not on the spot to direct the battle, and the men were still in the Red Gold Fortress, and there were already heralds returning to report the victory, Gray thought it was a little ridiculous, what was there to praise for such a victory.
Gonder was requisitioned, which was a common occurrence and Gray could have refused, but he didn't because he found out that all the knightly squires had been requisitioned.
Time passed slowly, and finally when the sun was about to set, the corpses of the goblins were piled up in piles like garbage, and the fire was lit without a single person praying to the goddess Shari.
Most of the human kingdoms believe in the goddess Shari, who is the embodiment of light and the messenger of justice.
After a while, there was a burning smell in the air, which made Gray's head a little dizzy, and the cavalry brigade on the main goblin camp was still surrounded to death, as if there was some secret.
An order came from above, asking the troops to camp ten miles from the entrance to the forest where the goblin leader had fled. The task of setting up the camp was naturally a matter for the two infantry brigades, and they had to build the barracks of the cavalry brigade first.
The camp was quickly set up, but it was rudimentary, there were no even the simplest fortifications, and apart from the necessary patrols, the remaining soldiers lit a bonfire, and some of them gathered around the campfire to talk about the battle that had just taken place, and some of them were talking about the *** who looked better and had better skills in the city.
Men love nothing more than to show off their strength and bravery and talk about women, or talk about 'national affairs'!
Gray was in his tent, and as a knight he had the right to enjoy a tent alone. His squire Gonder has not yet returned, and Gonde's affairs are left to his lieutenant in the army, Ruken.
Gray flipped out a random book and looked at it, and from time to time he looked at Ruken skillfully doing one chore after another.
Looking at the way Ruken was doing, Gray suddenly felt as if he was useless, except for having the identity of a knight and mastering some knowledge, everything else was not as good as the Ruken in front of him.
Such a fact made Gray feel a little uncomfortable, and suddenly a sense of urgency hit him, making Gray think in his heart: What if I lose my status as a knight?
Throwing the book on the desk, Gray felt irritated in his heart.
"Whew!" With a long breath, Gray stabilized his mind, he stared at Ruken again, Ruken listened to Gray's movement on the main case, quickly turned his head, saw Gray staring at him, and quickly lowered his head, "Gray Knight, is there something wrong?"
Looking at Ruken's respectful movements and low-brow pleasing expression, Gray secretly laughed at himself, his idea just now got into a corner, he first secretly laughed at himself, and then secretly decided: I will not lose my status as a knight, and I will become a true nobleman.
"It's okay, you're busy!" Gray said lightly.
Gray was about to open the book in his hand from the beginning, but a familiar voice sounded outside: "Is Knight Gray there?" was the voice of Knight Pura, the leader of the 2nd Infantry Brigade.
Before Gray could reply, the Pura Knight had already lifted the curtain of the tent and walked in, and the Pura Knight had been running towards Gray very much lately, and the soldiers outside did not dare to stop him.
"You go out first!" Pura said to Ruken, and he was really welcome.
Luck looked at Gray, and although Gray didn't know what was going on, he frowned and nodded, and Luck bowed down and left the tent.
After Luck left the tent, Pura moved closer, then stared at Gray and said, "Your squire is dead!"
Gray thought he had misheard, and immediately asked, "What did you say?"
"I said you're an acolyte, and that guy named Gonder is dead!" Pula said clearly this time.
Gray paused for a moment, and then his expression flicked, his eyes became a little terrifying, and he secretly thought: Pula shouldn't use this joke, he broke Ruken, he must have something to tell himself!
Gray stared at Pla and four words popped out between his teeth, "What's going on?"
Pura was startled when she saw Gray's changing expression, "You must be calm, wait for Sir Garnard to send someone over to report what happened, no matter what the other party says, you can't refute it, let alone go to Sir Garnard to theorize!"
"What the hell is going on?" asked Gray coldly.
Pula was a little embarrassed, "I don't know! I'll go first, I must remember what I said." With that, he hurried out of Gray's tent, ignoring Gray's shouts.
Gray's mind was a little confused, he reflexively got up, walked to the door of the camp, but turned back again, when he walked to the side of the desk, he turned around and walked to the door, and then turned back, back and forth several times, he never got out of the barracks! Before he could calm down, Ruken's voice sounded outside: "Knight Gray?"
"What's the matter?" Gray's voice was a little muffled, clearly on the verge of an outburst.
Ruken was obviously taken aback by Gray's tone, and his voice was a little panicked: "It's Sir Garnard's herald looking for you!"
Gray was stunned and said secretly: It's coming!
He immediately straightened his mind and forced himself to remain silent.
When the herald came in to give the salute, Gray asked, "But what orders does Sir Garnard have?"
The herald took a closer look at Gray and said, "Sir Garnard asked me to inform you that your squire was attacked by a few scattered goblins while carrying supplies, and has died!"
"How so?" Gray slammed to his feet, staring at the herald as he forced himself to hold back, "Can those dwarfed goblins kill my squires without a weapon?"
"Your squire was carrying supplies, plus a sneak attack, and it was a goblin armed with iron tools, so ......," the herald replied.
"Where's the corpse?" Gray interrupted him coldly.
"It's right outside, Knight Gray!" replied the herald quickly.
Hearing this, Gray ignored the herald and walked out of the camp directly, and as soon as he got out of the camp, he saw a group of people not far away, Gray's heart suddenly seemed to be struck by something, and he walked forward quickly.
There was a strong young man lying on the wooden stretcher, but this young man's complexion was already a little blue, and there was no trace of blood on his face, which was Gangde.
Although Gray had always hoped that it was fake, Gonder was indeed dead, and the wound looked like it was pierced from the back, Gonder was tall, and a goblin would not have such a tall stature.
It wasn't the goblin's doing!, Gray immediately came up with the idea.
