The hussars were quickly sent out, and the others were given orders for the whole team.

Many of them were startled when they saw the young Baroness again, who had not yet been formally inherited and could not be called Countess Fisher, although the family of Count Fisher was certainly unlucky.

Her eyes were red, her hair was messy, her body trembled slightly, and she seemed to be trying to restrain something, but she gritted her teeth and stepped onto the makeshift podium prepared for her, facing her audience.

"Those northerners, they killed my father," said the baroness slowly, word by word, as if they had been squeezed out of her chest with great effort, and not from between her lips and tongue, "and they killed my brothers...... They stole everything from here! 一qiē! ”

She turned around with great agility and stretched out her arm in the direction of the castle gate: "You, all of you, can see that this gate, this gate of the Fisher house, is made of the finest oak, look at the thickness of the planks!" Look at the sturdy latch! The Fisher family is not unarmed, not defenseless! It could have been able to withstand the impact of a log carried by ten, twenty, thirty strong men, and even the giants of the opening of the world could not pierce it at once, but," her voice changed tone, from a stern accusation to a mournful one, "those northerners, those vile heathens, who speak of conversion and our lord in their mouths, and think of the devil in their hearts! They used the excuse that the leader was about to die, and they wanted to sacrament before death. In this way, I gained my father's trust...... They took advantage of the piety and kindness of an old believer! He believed in them and thought about the soul of their leader. Open the doors and welcome these people in, ready to help them in the sacrament of redemption. But he suffered a terrible betrayal! They killed the people who treated them with such kindness! ”

The Baroness's arms shook violently in the direction of the gate, as if she remembered the terrible moment when the northerners had entered the gate with their weapons hidden, and her relatives were unsuspecting to welcome them...... She paused before continuing, "My family has suffered great misfortune, not because they don't have strong arms, not because they don't have strong swords, not because they don't have castles and latches. It's because those vile heretics took advantage of their good intentions! They deceived open the door, leaving no mercy for those who had mercy on them, and in this way they repaid the kindness of others. ”

"Ah, you will say, 'Is this not the work of brutes?' Yes, they are a bunch of hopeless brutes! Is it the first time they have done such a thing and repaid the kindness of others with such an act? The baroness shouted, and she suddenly jumped off the podium. Walking directly in front of the soldiers, "Why haven't we Neustrians treated them slowly?" We didn't fire an arrow at their homeland, we didn't send a single ship at their homeland, even though they were doing evil in Neustria. And as long as they wash their hands in a golden basin, we will give them fertile land, and call them dukes. that they may enjoy the glory and riches......"

She shuffled slowly past the soldiers, her eyes shining with rage. But what did they do to us? From kings to serfs, who dares to boast that they have not suffered from their scourge! Our most glorious former king. Didn't they shoot arrows on the battlefield? Are there not many farmers whose wives are separated by their scourge? I can't count the holy monasteries and churches that have been burned down for their plunder! They struck, robbed, burned, and when they came, they demanded a huge tribute, the amount of which could be distributed to every inhabitant of Turnest, from the old man to the infant, ten sheep each! But they're not satisfied! ”

Even with strict decrees, the soldiers couldn't help but let the sound out of their trachea, and their violent panting could be heard everywhere.

"After receiving such a huge amount of money, they are here again! And he has harmed my family in such a despicable way! "No," complained the baroness, "not only have they harmed my family, but they have also sacked the holy Abbey of St. Karen!" The baby teeth of St. Sina, the staff of St. Cran, and so many other sacred and precious relics and scrolls were treasured there, all of which fell into the hands of these shameless and insatiable infidels! Yes! Oh, my God! It's terrible! ”

"It's terrible!" One of the soldiers could not help but shout, and his captain glared at him, for it was customary for the soldiers were not allowed to speak while the commander spoke, but this time the baroness gave the soldier a tired smile, and at that moment the baroness and an ordinary soldier seemed to share their feelings, and then she looked up to the sky and seemed to be saying to herself, "After committing such a terrible crime, having carried out such terrible destruction, and having plundered the treasured relics and scrolls of the monastery...... Will they be satisfied with such a raid? ”

"No!" This time, more soldiers shouted.

"Yes!" The baroness shouted, and she confronted the soldiers again, "They won't be satisfied!" They will never be satisfied because of that! They will continue to fight, continue to rob, continue to burn, they will continue to plunder Neustria, and they will plunder Nyustria again and again! They will bring more calamity to Neustria, to Tournest, to ...... Ah, they have plagued my house, how can they not plague yours, but they will not stop like this! They even use divine salvation to trick good believers into opening doors! They loot holy relics with impunity! There is no limit to their crimes! How can the wolves stop if they don't have enough sheep for a day? She threw up her hands and shouted, "Unless we cut off their hands and knock out their teeth!" ”

"Cut off their hands, knock out their teeth!" This time, even the captains in charge of maintaining order shouted, "Let's drive these abominable heretics out to sea!" We have suffered enough at their hands, and we will give an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth! ”

"We've had enough of it at their hands, and now it's their turn to suffer!" The soldiers cried out, "We have not insulted them, but they have come to insult us again and again, and this day should come to an end!" ”

Then, they set off in high spirits. (To be continued......)
