Chapter 252: Enemy Attack on the Camp

East Yat, Mid-Levels Town, Earl Hamreg House. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

"My 'mole' has sent back a message from the west," Count Hamreg said with a serious expression and a solemn voice, "The Puppet Emperor August Ellis has sent a powerful foreign aid to the west, and it is Count Golden Rose of Golden Moon County, well, the same person who once invaded the Orc Empire and occupied a territory there. ”

When the other nobles sat around the long table, when they heard the news, a buzz immediately filled the chamber, some of them looked relaxed and seemed to be unconcerned about the news, some were panicked as if the end was coming, and some were thoughtful, their eyes twinkling, not knowing what they were planning.

Count Hamleg stretched out his hands and slapped them twice, and the noisy council room immediately fell silent, and he looked around at all the nobles present, and warned the somewhat wavering nobles with his stern eyes, and then said:

"Don't worry, I have reported this matter to Prince Andy, and he has also sent his plenipotentiary envoy, and that envoy will personally go to meet the Count of the Golden Rose, perhaps, the Count of the Golden Rose will eventually become our 'reinforcement', after all, our Prince Andy, he has always been very 'generous'!"

As soon as his words fell, a burst of knowing laughter broke out in the council room, these nobles have received a lot of benefits from Prince Andy, just a "generous", using this word to describe Prince Andy, that strength is a bit insufficient.

Seeing that the atmosphere in the council chamber had returned to normal, Count Hamleg continued: "However, our Prince Andy has also summoned us, and he has given us a task, which is to organize an army and take the lead in launching a tentative attack on Count Goldenrose's private army, as long as we win a victory, which can be regarded as an auxiliary means to increase the 'persuasiveness' of that envoy." ”

"Don't worry, gentlemen, I've already found the target, here," he said, standing up and walking over to the map hanging on the wall behind him, he pointed with his right hand to the edge of the Plain of Art, which is close to the border with Mason County, "Elijah's garrison, the outpost of the Earl of the Golden Rose, there are only two thousand men here, and with our strength, we should be able to take them easily." ”

Although his tone is very easy-going, but the nobles of Eastern Yat have not been with him for a day or two, everyone knows that he is a kind and ruthless person, since he has made a decision, no one here will question anything, and besides, "There are only two thousand people?

Kelsey's Elijah garrison, it only took them three days to set up a standard logistics baggage camp, in the mountains of Elijah, there is no shortage of giant trees at all, and after being equipped with a space ring, Kelsey has stored a lot of that kind of log materials in it, and from the moment she received Lin Feng's order, she made a lot of preparations for building the camp.

When Kelsey was a mercenary, she also carried out mercenary missions in Artecounty, she still knew a little about the geography of Artecounty, and knew that in Artecounty, she might not have to worry about military rations, but she would never find suitable wood there to build a camp, the granary of the empire, there was no forest there for her to cut wood.

It was also because of Kelsey's full preparation that when the army sent by Count Hamleg found them, in front of the rebels in the eastern Atte, a tall and sturdy camp appeared in front of them like a "miracle", and also because there were no large forests in the Aert Plains, and in addition to the strong stone forts they had here, the most common was the earthen forts, and the construction of the earthen forts, well, it was definitely not good to build them in a short time.

Therefore, they camped in the field, and the general standard was to form a circle with a horse rejection, and put obstacles such as baggage carts in it, and before they came, they thought that the camp established by the garrison of Elijah should also be like that, so after receiving the report of the secret agent, they galloped with confidence, well, the secret agent was also very depressed, and he still had important information to say, so he was left behind by the large army.

Climbing the tall arrow tower, Kelsey silently counted the number of incoming enemy troops, "It's about five thousand people, more than twice the number of me, hmph, if it wasn't for the early preparations, my two thousand people would really be lost here, but, now?"

Kelsey looked around, seeing that the soldiers in her camp had been mobilized, and according to the previous training, they entered their respective posts in an orderly manner, and the most eye-catching thing was the light artillery in the camp fortification, Lin Feng also knew that no matter how much his private army was trained, it could not catch up with the elite private army of those old nobles, so he deliberately increased the use of firearms in the army, and the Elijah garrison was no exception.

The two thousand men brought out by Kelsey contained five hundred pikemen, five hundred sword and shield men, and the remaining one thousand were all musketeers, and of course, the thousand musketeers also included two light gunners of the centennial, who carried a total of forty light guns.

"Although there are many enemies, with this strong camp we have built, we can win the victory, and the reinforcements of the lord are almost here, we are not fighting alone!" Kelsey was in front of her, a low-ranking mage cast an echo spell, and her voice rang in the ears of every garrison soldier under the influence of magic.

Since the Sunset Peak Mage Tower began to recruit vassal magicians, in Jinyue County, Mason County and the adjacent Windsor County, there are many low-level civilian magicians in these places who have come to Nanlin Island, and their thoughts are also very simple, "There are two archmages in the Sunset Peak Mage Tower, there, I may be able to learn more magic knowledge, and the lord there is also a magician, well, kiss or not, we can be regarded as all the way!"

Especially after the news of the wisdom potion came out, more magic apprentices also poured into Nanlin Island, and they tried their best to join the Sunset Peak Mage Tower, all they wanted was a chance to be promoted to a full-fledged mage: a wisdom potion produced by the Sunset Peak Mage Tower.

As a hereditary field nobleman, Lin Feng naturally did not refuse to come, his army was lacking a large number of legal positions, and he did not have the kind of consciousness that the magic master was born superior, so he directly dispatched the magic apprentices or low-level mages who had signed a vassal contract to his army, and if he could stand it, he would naturally stay, and if he couldn't stand it, he would not force it.

Elijah's garrison was naturally assigned to several low-level mages, all of whom were promoted after taking the wisdom potion, so naturally they had to serve in Lin Feng's army for a period of time according to the contract, usually about three years, of course, the remuneration and salary should not be less than a copper coin.
