Chapter 191: The Unlucky Great Sword Master

The battle that took place on March 17, 1771 in the Northlands is known in the history of the Gallinthia Continent as the "Slaughter of the Angry Bears". King Crisson Iberia led a coalition of 100,000 nobles from the Northlands against the unyielding Norton family, and the two sides fought a brief battle in front of the Rock Castle, in which all but half of the 100,000 nobles were wiped out, and King Cleison Iberia fled the Northlands with only a few dozen of his personal guards.

In the battle, more than 51,000 men of the First Legion of the Iberian Kingdom participated in the frontal field battle, and 45,000 men were armed against the Norton family. With their 2,000 to 3,000 crossbows, the Norton family forces took the lead in launching a long-range attack, and six consecutive rounds of fire directly broke the will of resistance of the First Legion of the Iberian Kingdom, and the whole army collapsed after more than 10,000 casualties.

Regarding this battle, the comments of military scientists and experts who compiled the history of the mainland war were only eight words: surprise and win first. The Norton family only had the advantage of long-range weapons and attacked first while the enemy was unprepared, while the First Legion of the Iberian Kingdom was unable to fight back under the long-range attack of a large number of crossbows due to its defensive formation, so that the whole army collapsed. Looking at the tactical arrangement of this battle, both sides are lackluster, and there is nothing dazzling.

......

The Earl of Kenmeth brought two of his relatives and rode horses and ran over, and greeted Lorist from afar: "Brother, this battle has been fought so well that it has finally made me feel sulky in my heart." The second prince actually put me under house arrest for a month, and used it to coerce my family. But it made me depressed to death. ”

Since the Kenmath family's armed more than 20,000 men did not evacuate the battlefield, but only camped on the edge of the battlefield in a neutral manner, the cautious Marek ordered two chariot battalions to monitor and guard them on the left and right, and the remaining three chariot battalions were engaged in the pursuit of the remnants of the enemy.

Lorist also laughed and stepped forward, and hugged Count Kenmeth, who jumped off the horse: "It's okay, I'm relieved to see you alive." Now I understand why I always refuse the second prince's invitation. I could feel his bad intentions. If I go, I might not be able to return to my family's territory like you. ”

Count Kenmeth snorted and said angrily: "Who would have thought that a dignified king would use such a scoundrel method, just like a ruffian and a hooligan, it is really a shame for the nobles." I'll never trust him again. ”

Lorist smiled: "Don't worry, you won't see him in the Northland in the future." Tomorrow you will take a group of men and horses with me to Gildusk to do some business. ”

"Uh......" Count Kenmax was stunned, and after a long time he said to Ai Ai, "Lo, Locke, you." No matter how you say him, he is also me, our king, and the crime of killing, killing the king is not good......"

Lorist shook his head: "I'm not that unwise, I just want to drive him out of the Northlands, catch him and send him away." If he dies on the battlefield, it will save us trouble. I went to Gildusk to witness the signing of an agreement between Baron Shahin and Baron Philim, saving the two of them from having a dispute in the future. ”

Count Kenmax wondered, "What will happen to the two of them?"

"I have divided the Grand Duke's Territory in half. Half of them are in the mix. So the two of them ran so fast just now, for fear that they would suffer if they were late. Lorist said lightly.

As soon as I heard this. The habit of taking advantage of small advantages in the bones of Count Kenmeth broke out on the spot, and protested: "The two of them have taken too much this time, as your friend, I ask that everyone be treated equally, and you must also take care of our family......"

Lorist smirked, "My friend, your Kenmax family has monopolized the eastern Northlands. Where do you want to put your hand? Tell me yourself......"

"This ......" Count Kenmax was speechless, now that his family occupied the entire eastern region of the Northlands, there was really no room for further expansion, at most it was to occupy two more territories to the west, and then connect with Baron Philim's domain. But both of those territories were barren. If it is occupied, it will cost a lot of money to invest in development, so it is better to use it as a buffer zone between the two families.

"Otherwise, you divide the dozen or so lords in the eastern part of the Northland who are raised by you, and the old Northland lords will send them to me, and I will be responsible for replacing them with territories. New lords are sent out of the country. In the future, the entire eastern part of the Northlands will be owned by your Kenmax family, okay?" Lorist suggested.

"I'm going to go back and talk to my father, and if your advice is feasible, I'll do what you say. Count Kenmeth thought for a moment and replied.

In the distance, four horses galloped in.

It was El who had returned with two guards.

"Locke, oh no, my lord, look at the results of our two super steel crossbows......" There were outsiders present, and El still consciously called Lorist as an adult.

El and the others reached and reached out and lifted a carcass from the fourth steed to the ground. The corpse had a large hole in its chest and abdomen, apparently wounded by the iron bolts of the Super Steel Crossbow.

Who is this old man? But it must not be the second prince, the second prince is not this chubby appearance, and he is at least ten years younger than this corpse, this old man looks to be in his sixties.

Before the triumphant El showed up, the Count of Kenmax on the side was already shocked: "This, this is the great swordsman of Ruinsi, you, how can you kill him?"

"Why can't you?" "This old man is stupid like a pig, and he actually wants to intercept the crossbow arrows of the super steel crossbow we fired with a single sword, but although the first arrow was broken by him, he immediately vomited blood, and then the second arrow arrived, and the old man was penetrated, and he knocked down the banner of the second prince, so the second prince was stupid, and those attendants were afraid that we would fire this kind of crossbow arrow again, so they pulled the second prince and ran, and the whole army collapsed......"

"Look. My lord, I've worked hard to get these two super steel crossbows to be useful, but this guy said that this old man is a great swordsman, a great swordsman! Haha, my super steel crossbow is a blow. The second prince lost a great sword master. Haha, it's so exciting. You must know that when I went to look for those two crossbow arrows, the captive next to me told me that this old man was a great swordsman, and I didn't believe it, haha, our super steel crossbow is invincible in the world......"

"**lucky......" Lorist scolded hatefully as he looked at El's face smiling like a chrysanthemum. If it was said before the war that these two super steel crossbows would shoot a great swordsman, they would not believe it, but now the facts are in front of them, the body of this old man, who is said to be one of the two great swordsmen next to the second prince, was thrown on the ground, no wonder Elle was happy like a puppy. A look of arrogance and pride.

In fact, no one expected that this Ruinsi Great Swordsman was indeed unlucky and committed suicide. The bolts fired by the first Super Steel Crossbow were fired at the wrong angle to the side where the Second Prince was standing, and should have passed over their heads without causing damage to anyone. But this Ruinsi Great Swordsman didn't know what to think in his head, maybe he thought that as a great swordsman, it would be a shame to let the crossbow arrow pass over his head, so he jumped up and drew his sword to block the crossbow arrow.

It's just that the Great Sword Master didn't expect the strength of this crossbow arrow to be so strong, although he broke the crossbow arrow. But there was nowhere to borrow strength in the air, and the power of the crossbow arrows was transmitted to him. Immediately injured his internal organs, spit out a mouthful of blood, and the sword in his hand was also shattered. Luck is bad here, the figure of the great swordsman was also collapsed and flew diagonally to the side, just in the way of the second crossbow arrow, and the tragedy happened......

If this old man of the Great Sword Master stood still. The bolts fired by these two super steel crossbows don't hurt anyone, only a little scare. But luck is the most difficult thing to figure out, maybe it was fate that the old man would die today, so he moved and sent himself to a dead end. All those present were terrified. This is the Great Sword Master, it is so easy to hang, if there are two more ones, who can stop it? I couldn't care about anything anymore, a few guards pulled the second prince and ran away, and then the entire legion collapsed......

"Hey, what are you doing! Don't climb up to it, you come down for me!"

Lorist turned his head to see that Count Kenmeth had climbed onto the flatbed chariot at some point, and was caressing the super steel crossbow with love, and the expression on his face must have been more obsessed than when he caressed his beauties and babies: "Artifact, ......"

Below El was pointing at him to let him down.

"Get him down for me!" El was furious.

The Earl of Kenmath was framed down by two guards.

"What are you doing?" said Lorlist, grimacingly.

"Brother, my brother Locke, you have to sell me one of these two artifacts if you say anything......" Count Kenmax gripped Lorlist's hand tightly.

"No need to talk. Lorist shook his head.

"Really?" said Count Kenmasse, pleading with a face.

"No, really. Lorist replied very seriously.

"Alas......" Count Kenmax also knew that such a big killer Lorist would not let go, so he had to give up.

"I said what are you sighing for? I used these two things to deal with large demonic beasts, and your family territory is not on the same side as the barbarian plains, why do you want these things?"

"Deal with the Great Swordsman!" replied Count Kenmeth in a way that surprised Lorlist.

"Did you know how many great swordsmen there are in the Kingdom of Iberia?" asked Count Kenmeth.

"I don't know......," Lorist thought about, "I know that there are two kingdoms of Antinac, both of which are by the side of the third prince. In addition, the Grand Duke of Melein is also said to be a great swordsman. As for the Iberian Kingdom, I only heard that there are two of them with the second prince, and the others are not clear. ”

Count Kenmeth stretched out a slap: "The Iberian Kingdom actually has a total of five great swordsmen. ”

After speaking, he kicked the old man's body on the ground: "But now there are only four." The second prince has two great swordsmen by his side, one is his teacher when he was a child, named Kalinan, but this old man is bent on becoming a sword master, and he can't study kendo in the depths. I met him before the Chinese New Year, and escorted the queen back to the royal capital of Windbury at the end of March. There is also this old man on the ground, his name is Lu Yinsi, and he is said to be the younger brother of Na Kalinan, because Galinan wants to study kendo, so he entrusted him to personally protect the second prince. ”

Count Kenmeth said and kicked the old man's corpse a few more times: "This old man is the most hateful, the second prince is relying on his support to repeatedly tease the knights of the golden family under the nobles of the territory, and he will not give up without making others disgraced." And also greedy for money and lustful, and forcibly took poor Viscountess Justin from me last time. He also coerced me to give him a gold dollar coupon of 10,000 gold fords, by the way, I have to touch if the gold dollar coupon is still on him......"

Both hands of Count Kenmas were covered in blood, but unfortunately nothing was found.

Lorist turned his head to look at El, but saw that he was smiling, and he understood. This old man has already been touched by El.

Taking the handkerchief handed over by his entourage and wiping the blood from his hands, Count Kenmeth continued: "Except for the two beside the second prince, the remaining three are on the side of his father-in-law, the Grand Duke of Fisabrun. This is also the main reason why the second prince is afraid of the Grand Duke of Fisabrun, because the Grand Duke himself is a great sword master. and an important general under him, the knight of the family, Viscount Christopher, who is also a great swordsman. The last one is a woman, named Cindy, I don't know what her big name is, she is the nurse of Princess Celevia. It seems that she is still the lover of the Grand Duke, and she miscarried for some reason after she became pregnant, and it happened that Princess Celivia's parents died early at that time, so she was raised by her, and it is said that she loved Princess Celivia as if she had ......"

"Now the eastern chain bridge built by our family leads to Makinohara Province under the control of Grand Duke Fisabrun, think about the frontier regiment under the Grand Duke, and then think about the three great sword masters, I have to sleep with one eye open. If you have this big killer behind you. I'm much more relieved......" pleaded Count Kenmeth.

Lorist smiled and shook his head: "No, this thing really can't be left outside." But don't worry. After driving the second prince out of the Northland, the Northland has the final say on the four of us, as long as the four of us form an alliance, no one can bully us, and if one family is in trouble, the other three will definitely send troops to help. Even if the Grand Duke of Naphisabrun wants to deal with you, we have to consider whether the three of us agree or not. If you don't feel at ease, break the chain bridge, I don't believe that the great swordsman will fly over the moat to find trouble for your family. ”

"Ugh. Let's talk about that. "Count Kenmax also knew that Lorist was joking, can the chain bridge built by the family spend so much money be broken, no matter how much money is collected, it is a lot of money.

......

Lorist stayed for another day, and ordered Bodfinger to lead three heavily armored battalions to set up a prisoner camp in the open space in front of the Rock Castle and collect the prisoners. After the war is over, he will be sent to the black mud swamp for development and labor. He forced El to drag the two super steel crossbows back to Rock Castle. After Count Kenmax sent his 20,000 family forces back to the territory, he took the guard battalion and Count Kenmax to Gildusk City.

After walking on the road for three days, the news came that the second prince had not been caught yet, and I didn't know where he had fled. And Baron Philim has raided and forcibly occupied the Hendry Ford Bridge checkpoint and the Fort Fresd Castle as agreed, and is now attacking the two towns and three manor castles assigned to him, which are currently progressing smoothly and are expected to be taken soon.

The former Grand Duchy of the Northland had a capital city, Gildusk, a Hendry Ford Bridge checkpoint, and a Fresed Fort Castle, as well as three manor castles and seven towns. Knight Hennend took possession of Cherry Blossom Ridge Manor Castle and Evenson Town, leaving two Manor Castles and six towns.

Except for one of the three manor castles attacked by Baron Philim, which belonged to the Grand Duke, the other two manor castles belonged to the adjacent territorial nobles, because the three manor castles were similar, Lorist was assigned to Baron Philim, anyway, these territorial nobles all participated in the second prince's alliance of the Northland nobles, and Lorist didn't mind having a nest.

The Knight Henneid was to occupy another manor castle and four towns of the Grand Duke, as well as the city of Gildusk, the capital of the Grand Duke, and the messenger who came in the morning reported that Lord Sahin Henneid, who had advanced much faster than Lord Baron Felim, and had now taken control of the city of Gildusk, and that the other four towns and the manor castle had also fallen under his control.

Along the way, the Norton family was seen armed with groups of prisoners of war walking towards the Rock Castle, which made Lorist have to sigh that the potential of people is really limitless, and in just a few days, the soldiers who participated in the alliance of the nobles of the Northland have fled so far away.

In the evening, I had just drunk a few glasses of wine with the Earl of Kenmax in the camp, and after a long chat, I was about to rest, and I came on a fast horse.

As soon as the messenger entered the tent, he knelt down: "Lord Norton, save the two adults of our family!"

What's going on?

The messenger said that Lorist was shocked: "What? You said that the Tabek Golden Knight was captured by Princess Celevia and taken into the Grand Duke's mansion? Henned went to save him and was also arrested?"

"Yes, Baron Philim has led his troops to besiege the Grand Duke's Mansion and demanded that Princess Celevia hand over the two lords. The princess refused, threatening to kill the two adults if she attacked the Grand Duke's mansion, and now the stalemate was deadlocked. Baron Philim wants you to hurry up to Gildusk City to preside over the overall situation and rescue the two adults. The messenger replied weepingly.
