Section 89
The army attacking Viscount Marne's camp was not Gray's troops, his troops were still quietly in the barracks, and that unit was Viscount Keys's troops. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
This was an agreement between Gray and Viscount Case.
Yesterday, the two messengers of Viscount Keyes, the letter to Gray, the general content of which was similar to that of the messenger, Viscount Keyes hoped to join forces with Gray to kill Viscount Marne.
As to why Gray wanted to kill the messenger, this was also the request of Viscount Case, and his letter mentioned that if Gray agreed to his request, either of the two messengers would be executed.
This is also just in case, even if Viscount Marne knows about this, not only will he not embarrass the remaining messenger, but he will also escort him all the way, and let him tell Viscount Keith what happened in the Gray barracks.
After executing the messenger, Gray walked up to the other messenger and, as he patted him on the shoulder, inadvertently whispered four words in his ear: "Tomorrow morning!"
Thinking about it, although the messenger didn't know what it meant, he still conveyed these four words to Viscount Case.
The cavalry in the distance was getting closer and closer, Rena was riding a black war horse, at the front of the group, her riding skills were getting better and better, and with Rena came Mark, Rena was able to lead the troops to arrive, and it was also Gray's order to let Mark bring back.
After the group had gathered, Gray ordered the bodies of Ruken and the three soldiers who had died in the battle to be brought back to his camp, and Hamp was depressed and kept his head down.
"Lord Baron!" the knights of Central and Sir Rand had been waiting at the gate of the camp for a long time, and the soldiers behind them were all ready to go.
Gray thought for a moment and gave an order: "Let the troops cut off the retreat of Viscount Marne's troops, and strive to leave them all, besides, it is not good to clash with Viscount Case's army!"
The Knight of Cente grinned, "Understood!"
Gray had no interest in participating in the next battle, and although he didn't show it on the surface, he was still haunted by Ruken's betrayal in his heart.
The blood stains on his body were faintly visible, and Gray wiped it lightly with his hand, but the more he wiped it, the more he wiped it.
If you want to survive in this circle, and at the same time let your family continue to grow and develop, you must face one choice after another, and Ruken chooses interests in the face of loyalty, honor and interests, which is the choice of most people.
Who would have thought that Ruken, who had just been canonized as a knight and had relocated his entire family to Gersenburg, would betray, and Gray hoped that the information was false until the moment before Lucken drew his sword.
Gray looked at the advancing troops and couldn't help but wonder in his heart: who else can he trust?
This problem has been encountered by all the lords, and in Game of Thrones, there is basically no absolute trust, and the trust they say is only relative.
In fact, in the human kingdom, there are very few family knights who betray, because once they betray their allegiance to the family, that knight will always be trusted.
The reason why Ruken betrayed so easily was because he had not been infected by the chivalric culture, and he did not know the shame of the 'oath breaker', and in addition, Ruken witnessed Gray's assassination of Sir Garnald, and then witnessed Gray's success
Ruken, like Taylor, wanted to emulate Gray's success, but unfortunately, he, like Taylor, ended in failure.
And Ruken's son, Hamp, is the representative of another group of people!
In the kingdom of man, there is a group of knights and nobles who regard honor as a pursuit, and in their eyes, nothing can override it.
"Lord Baron!"
This is Rena's voice, she didn't get Gray's orders, she and Mark can only stay with Gray, as for Punk, now they can only stay with the soldiers.
Gray came back to his senses and looked up to see a middle-aged man dressed as a bachelor, escorted by two soldiers, standing ten steps away from Gray!
The two soldiers wore gray linen robes emblazoned with the Donna family motifs, and Gray sat on horseback and looked down at the three people opposite.
"Baron Cage!" the middle-aged bachelor performed an ancient aristocratic etiquette to Gray.
Gray nodded.
The middle-aged bachelor looked up at Gray and said slowly, "Our Viscount would like to see you, Baron Cage!"
"Yes, let him come to my barracks!" said Gray casually.
"Of course, that's what our viscount meant!" the middle-aged bachelor agreed.
Gray was stunned, he didn't expect the other party to really agree to come to his barracks to meet, Gray looked at the middle-aged bachelor seriously, and said again: "I mean, let him come to my barracks to meet me!"
The middle-aged bachelor nodded, "Of course, Lord Viscount is very sincere to talk to you!"
Gray "En!", his eyes flashed, he thought for a moment, turned his head to look at Rena next to him, and shouted, "Knight Rena!"
"I'm here, Lord Baron!"
"On my behalf, you go to their side and greet Viscount Keith!"
Rena immediately agreed, "Yes, Lord Baron!"
"Punk!" Gray shouted again.
Punk immediately came out and saluted, "Lord Baron!"
Gray stared at him and said, "You go with Knight Rena!"
"Yes, Lord Baron!"
Since the other party can have such sincerity, Gray will naturally not be stingy, and he sent his own guard captain to show his sincerity.
The battle continued on Viscount Marne's camp, and every once in a while, scouts would run to Gray to report on the battlefield. Viscount Marne's troops were all veterans, and although the commander was missing, his knights were still there, so the troops were not panicked.
If Gray took Viscount Marne's head and threw it into their army formation now, their line would definitely be broken in an instant! However, there was no need for Gray to do this, and besides, the longer Viscount Case's army fought with Viscount Marne's troops, the more beneficial it would be for Gray.
Gray arranged it and returned to the main tent with Mark.
As soon as Mark entered the tent, he said to Gray: "That Baron Mura is still in your territory, and he doesn't seem to be leaving until you wait!"
"If he wants to wait, let him wait, when I finish dealing with things here, they will be like clowns jumping off the beam to me!"
Gray smiled "hehe", if Harrens City was captured, he didn't have to worry about that Baron Mura at all, and when the time came, their cooperation would not be Baron Mura's choice of Gray, but Gray's choice of Baron Mura.
"Don't be careless, their families can survive for hundreds of years, and they have their own way of survival!" Mark reminded Gray.
Gray restrained his smile and said seriously: "I won't underestimate any opponent!"
Mark took off the knight's helmet on his head, in such a hot weather, it was simply a sin to carry this, "When Viscount Keith and Viscount Marne divide the victory, Harrence City will be at your fingertips, I shouldn't have congratulated you in advance!"
Gray smiled "haha", a smug look flashed on his face, and then said, "Congratulations to Lord Earl!"
Mark smiled mockingly, and was about to speak, but Gray preemptively said: "Okay, be quiet, wait, see what Viscount Keith wants to say, although this person is young, he is not small!"
"In the face of absolute strength, all conspiracies will have nowhere to hide!"
Mark was very confident in his light tone, he was right, when the battlefield over there is over, even if Viscount Keith can win, his troops will be lost, and Gray's current troops, plus the thousand people brought by Rena, are nearly three thousand.
