Chapter 56: The Patrol (Part II)
In July, autumn is crisp. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
A breeze blew through, and layers of grass surged.
In the blue-yellow fields there are fruit trees, and the trees are full of red fruits:
Harvest season has arrived!
At this moment, a convoy of more than a dozen people drove over, with eleven or twelve knights scattered left and right on horseback, protecting the dark carriage in the middle;
The wheels turned, moving slowly.
This is where a noble lord is, and there is a golden carving on the car, which is the coat of arms of the nobility, representing the honor of a family, and can only be used by the nobleman himself or his closest relatives!
Judging by the specifications of the fleet, this is at least a hereditary knight's traveling fleet!
When the merchants or farmers they met on the road saw it, they all avoided it, and no one opened their eyes to provoke this convoy, after all, the price of doing so was probably their own lives!
The coachman was a middle-aged man, dressed in an old black dress, with a proud look on his toes, looking left and right.
Suddenly, he turned his head and said to the cyclist on the left:
"Mr. Hans, how long will it be before we get to Finney?"
"You know, it's the first time I've left Blue Water City!"
Mr. Hans, whose full name was Hans Dark, was a strong young man, with a short shaggy beard on his lips, and a thick face that looked reliable;
When Hans Duck heard the middle-aged coachman's words, he turned his head:
"Follow this road all the way, and then pass through the territory of the three noble lords is Finney's Territory."
"Probably tomorrow afternoon"
The middle-aged coachman opened his mouth wide, as if he could put down a bird's egg, and stammered:
"It's 、、、 to walk for two days、、、!
At this time, the crack rider at the top of the right laughed:
"Hahaha, hush, you're so rare and weird."
The middle-aged coachman didn't dare to offend the sturdy young man, rolled his eyes, and said with a smile:
"Mr. George, have you been to Finney before?"
"Can you tell me about it?"
Mr. George, whose full name is George Luther, is always hippie and smiling and likes to laugh at the shortcomings of others, but he is a strong man and a reliable fighter!
George Luther grinned and shook his head:
"I haven't been there, but I've heard from others that Finney is a very good place to be fertile and rich!"
"And there are so many pretty girls!"
The middle-aged coachman smiled flatteringly:
"Then you are very knowledgeable!" said then, turning to Mr. Hans, who was in the first place on his left:
"Mr. Hans, you too!"
"Both gentlemen are well-informed and powerful!"
George Luther smiled proudly when he heard this, and looked very approving:
"You're right, hush!"
"I'm well-informed!hahaha~"
Hans Dark, on the left, waved:
"Hash, let's go faster, it's getting dark"
"I remember there was a river beach in front of me, and it was a great campsite, so get there before dark!"
"No problem, Mr. Hans!" said the coachman, Hash, with a flick of the reins;
With the sound of brisk horses' hooves, the convoy picked up.
When the convoy reached the beach, the sun had not yet fully set, and Hans Duck jumped off his horse and directed his retinue to set up camp and prepare food.
When the camp was almost arranged, he came to the carriage door and bowed:
"Sir, camp has been arranged"
The door opened, and Ser Seta Finney came out, looked up at the sunset on the horizon, and then looked at the well-laid camp and nodded with satisfaction:
"Hans, well done!"
"Sir, it's a great honor to be recognized by you!"
"Hmm," said Ser Seta Finney, looking left and right,
"What about George? I didn't see him."
"He went with men to hunt and kill his prey"
Ser Seta Finney nodded and headed for the tent in the middle of the camp, while Hans Duck remained outside to arrange the group.
Hans Darker and George Luther were Sir Seta Feeney's new knightly squires, both of whom were level 4 senior squires, not squire apprentices like Hubie Jr.
Both were the youngest sons of a knightly family with no inheritance, and were loyal to the Finney family through the relationship of Baron Hugo.
For now, Sir Seta Finney is still satisfied with the two, after all, they are not yet 20 years old, and they are already level 4 warriors, which means that they have the qualifications to continue to grow.
The sun went down, and the moon rose again like a hook;
This world, like the earth, has a sun and a moon, and when the sun rises it is day, and when the moon rises it is night.
Captain Highbury came to the camp tent:
"Sir, dinner is ready"
This time, Ser Seta Finney took almost all of the bodyguards, not even Little Hubie, a team of 12 men, including two senior squires.
Sir Seta Feeney lifted the curtain from within:
"Let's go, Highbury, what's going to be for tonight?"
"It was a wild boar caught by Mr. George"
Sir Seta Finney had some surprises:
"Wild boar? That's pretty good."
"It's just a pity that Chopper isn't here"
At the front of the camp, a large bonfire was lit, and everyone was present except for the night watch, and Sir Settafini went straight to sit on the throne;
As a result, George Luther handed over the grilled pork chop and took a big bite directly:
"Well, very good"
"Did George do it?" waved his hand:
"Let's all eat"
George Luther bowed happily:
"George is very grateful for your recognition, Sir"
The meal was short-lived, and at the end of the meal Ser Seta Feeney summoned Highbury into his tent:
"Sit down, Highbury"
"Yes, Sir!" the captain of the guard was a little nervous, not knowing what was the matter with Jazz suddenly looking for him.
Sit down with your back straight and your hands on your knees.
Sir Seta Feeney smiled and said:
"Highbury, the reason why we went to the territory this time, I'm sure you should know very well, right?"
After a moment's hesitation, looking at the semblance of a smile on Jazz's lips, the captain of the guard finally admitted:
"Yes, sir, it's clearer"
"Well, very well, I like smart people," Sir Seta Feeney nodded with satisfaction:
"So tell me what we need to pay attention to this time?"
Boom~Oo~
Highbury's heart suddenly skipped a beat, and he took a slight breath to suppress the boredom in his heart before he said:
"Sir, I 、、、"
"Just plain, I'd like to hear your opinion," Sir Seta Feeney looked very interested.
After hesitating for a moment, he gritted his teeth and said:
"Attention needs to be paid to the White family!"
"Because the Finney family used to be friendly with the White family, there are many people in the territory, and they all have ties with the White family!"
"Oh?"
"Yes, sir," Highbury gritted his teeth, and the more he said, the smoother it became:
"But if you want to clean up these people, you must be on guard against possible attacks from the White family."
With that, Highbury stood up and stood with his head bowed.
Ser Seta Feeney smiled with satisfaction, and stood up and walked over and patted the captain of the guard on the shoulder:
"I have a task for you now, my captain of the guard!"
