The Great Demon King, who was in the center of the storm and the whirlpool, knew nothing about the robbers who came straight to her, the Diocese of Turnest and the Kingdom of Neustria, and in the case of the nobles and robbers in and around the diocese of Tournest, the big and small nobles and robbers were all looking down on the wind, and in a harmonious and beautiful situation, the Great Demon King who wanted to practice with a nearby enemy but could not get it could only sigh how the villain of this year could be so uncourageous, and at the same time sent troops to beg for his mother according to the original plan.

It can be seen that flies don't bite eggs without sewing, as long as mortals are harmonious and friendly like a family and don't stab each other, even the big demon king who has crossed over from the other world has nothing to do with them.

The swearing-in ceremony was very simple and simple, and Luo Yi knew that any mistake in this ceremony would shake the morale of the army, so even the flagpole was made of iron. The ceremony was brief, with the bishop explaining the reason for the troops (the fact that an Assassin had dared to commit a murder in the holy cathedral terrified the low-class people who came to see them off), then the baroness affirmed the military law against looting and harassment, and finally the bishop blessed the army.

Despite the simplicity of the ceremony, there was a big mistake at the scene.

Two servants, on the orders of the Count of Fisher, sent a box to the count's daughter, Baroness Brad, and when they entered the city gate, the gatekeeper told them that Baroness Brad had taken an oath at the schoolyard, and they came to the schoolyard, not knowing that the oath was for the purpose of the Count's landfall against Fisher.

When they reached the school grounds, they heard the most venerable bishop (who was dressed in a full gown, which was very recognizable) proclaim the object of the oath-sworn crusade, and the man with the box was startled and dropped the bread of the box to the ground. At this time, a gendarme guarding the premises came and asked what the two strangers were here for. They had come very openly, but they did not expect to hit the muzzle of the gun. I don't know if it's good to tell the truth, but I suddenly got up.

Others nearby looked at them suspiciously. And they were all gathered around, and while the two servants were standing up, no one was alerted by a wild dog coming from under the people's feet, and snatching away the bread.

When the people saw a wild dog pounding the bread that was solemnly packed in a delicate wooden box, they all shouted and beat it, and the dog hurriedly took a bite of the bread and threw it down and ran to the other side, and the two servants looked at the bread that had been bitten by the dog, and they were furious and tried to beat the dog, but who knew that the dog had fallen down and died.

This greatly surprised everyone who saw it nearby.

When they knew that the two servants had brought the poisoned bread on the orders of Count Fisher. They no longer had any doubts about the reasons for sending troops. Angry cries spread from one end of the square to the other, and soon everyone knew that the black hand that had reached out to Tournest would not retract if they did not send any more troops.

The remnants of the loaves were solemnly packed into boxes as evidence, ready to be confronted before the Count of Fisher, who, of course, fell into their hands, and cut off the might of the demon who dared to challenge the Bishop of Tournest.

They were convinced of it.

Think about it. Even a revered noble lady can be the target of poisoning, and even a sacred cathedral can become a place of murder, so who else is safe in Turnest? Everybody knows, no.

They enthusiastically cheered for the order to go out. Because they went this time, not to take risks, but to make themselves safer.

Thus the army of the Counts of Fisher set out. Their marching procession was such that the wagons of baggage walked in the middle. The cavalry walked on both sides, and the infantry outside. Scouts are on the outermost side.

This time two thousand infantry were dispatched, including nine hundred halberders, who could form three phalanxes if necessary; 1,000 crossbowmen with swords, each with 500 arrows; A hundred archers, they are not easy to train compared to crossbowmen, but they have a faster rate of fire than crossbowmen, and they are very useful when arranged properly. A battalion of 100 infantry was formed, with two heralds on horseback, who set out in the order in which they were drawn.

Three hundred light cavalry were divided into three squads, one at a time to escort the outside and rear, and two to follow the march on the inside. Forty heavy cavalry walked in the middle, walking with the baggage wagons. This arrangement, firstly, is to stabilize the morale of the army, with cavalry behind the formation, the infantry will not be easy to disperse; Second, Luo Yi is really worried about their military discipline.

Forty of the best horsemen, the most agile and the most agile and calm-minded cavalry "top men" were selected as scouts, and they were divided into three squads and took turns to explore the way ahead. Not only did they have to reconnoiter the enemy, but they also had to find water and camp for the entire force. Of course, the most important of all missions is to scout the enemy, and to ensure this mission for them, each scout is equipped with three horses, which can be replaced in turn to maintain horsepower. They are not burdened with any equipment other than their own weapons. When selecting scouts, Luo Yining lacked and disciplined first, because their first task was reconnaissance, not full of chivalrous spirit to fight the enemy, let alone rob traveling merchants when they saw them. The latter is a very harmful behavior, and Luo Yi can't be with them, so he can only prevent it in advance.

Walking with the baggage wagons, in addition to the heavy cavalry, there were also ambulances, draftsmen, carpenters, blacksmiths, bakers, veterinarians and other logisticians.

Luo Yi and Jenny rode their horses and led the heralds, and walked on the left and right sides of the whole procession, one of them went from front to back, and the other from back to front, like a plough in spring, and when they reached the end of the procession, they turned and continued walking. In this way, they personally patrol to ensure military discipline.

It was the turn of spring and summer, and the scenery along the road was very beautiful, with blue cornflowers and red poppies blooming in the fields, purple and white thyme decorating the scenery along the road, and the roar of deer and bison in the pale blue mountains in the distance. Luo Yi was riding on a horse, and from time to time he could see a lark chirping straight into the sky. The marching infantrymen sang the marching songs they had learned during their previous training, and the logisticians walking in the middle gave them a beat—they themselves were well worth seeing!

The young soldiers were well nourished by the many years of harvest in the diocese of Tournest, and their faces were full of the confidence that had been brought to them by their previous victories, and their clothes were neat, not shabby, and rarely patched. Their shoulders were straight, because their masters did not force them to bow to themselves with whips. They sang cheerful songs, occasionally laughed at a joke made up by a mischievous soldier, and their minds were not marked by the hardships of life.

The shepherds and farmers he met along the way had at first taken refuge in the woods, but Luo Yi had previously told them not to leave them alone as long as they did not have uniforms, so the army sang songs and continued their march. Gradually, these people approached with great courage and admired the beautiful and joyful procession. "Who are these?" They asked, "Is it the procession of the archbishop from the Holy Land of the East?" Or a foreign king or a illustrious duke? ”

When they learned that it was just a baroness leading troops, they thought it was a joke at first, for even the Count had no such grandeur. But when they learned that the Baroness had come from Turnest, they were not surprised: "Is it from the same Tournest, who is as much silver as a stone, under the care of the gods and St. Aubrey?" That's not surprising! ”

They said this, but they would not leave, and the shepherds had left their flocks, and the farmers had left their tools, and they were vying to see the beautiful procession, "Alas, alas, I wish I were in this procession." They said so.

Even the landlord's stewards and servants mingled with the crowd of spectators, their neat clothes and well-fed bodies made them like red deer crowded into a herd of sika deer, but in the face of the soldiers who proudly and confidently walked past them, it was like in front of a herd of handsome horses—that was incomparable.

The army didn't care about these people, and as for the landlord knights in uniform, they saw the size of the army, and when they saw those steel blades that shone with cold light, they reasoned away. (To be continued......)
