Just when the Great Demon King went berserk because "even if he traveled through ancient China and had become a cheap mother for widows and bear children, he actually had to encounter an arranged marriage and was accused of marrying a man who probably had never met", another news came like a bolt from the blue.

This thunderbolt is not small, and even the chief of staff was stupid all of a sudden.

"Ran away? They ran away? How is this possible! This time, Jason's voice suddenly made a decibel higher than his mistress's, "Tell me how they ran away?" ”

Realizing that the cavalry could inflict considerable casualties on them, the northerners stayed where they were, and since they had not advanced in any direction, the hussars had not done anything to them beyond the orders they had received, and, as it was getting late, the hussars thought that they would run away at night even if they wanted to, so they kept an eye on them at night.

The northerners, who seemed to know that they could not escape from the encirclement of the cavalry, simply set up camp on the spot, and those who seemed to be messengers tried to greet the light cavalry, but the light cavalry, as ordered, did not talk to them, and anyone who ran out managed to expel them back.

Nothing happened overnight.

In the early hours of the next morning, the northerners bombed the camp.

The herds of cattle they had taken as food for the march and the captives they considered valuable along the way swarmed out and fled in all directions, taking the light cavalry by surprise.

At first, the hussars thought that there was chaos among the northerners, and some of them could not bear the pressure and ran away, because these northerners were not one tribe but many tribes. It is quite possible that the interior would collapse first under the high pressure caused by the hussars the day before, besides. Flames rose again in the camp of the northerners.

But they soon discovered that the people who had escaped were Neustrians and not northerners. Then they saw the horse team running westward.

"In vain!" The captain of the cavalry sneered, the northerners could not fight them on horseback, and there was no way to maneuver when they dismounted, while the light cavalry under his command could fight on horseback, and could kill and wound these people while pursuing, although it would take more time to detour by the cattle and the fleeing captives, but their horses were fast, and it was a certain thing to catch up with the other party. "Wherever you are, you will perish!"

In this way, they confidently chased after it.

"And then?" Jason asked eagerly, "How did they get rid of you?" Didn't I order, even if they used the abbot of the Great Monastery and even the most glorious king himself as hostages, do not be soft! ”

Luo Yi snorted beside him, thinking that this guy had done his best to rebel, and he did not hesitate to try to create a fait accompli.

"And then ......"

They made a detour, bypassing the fleeing captives and the galloping herds, and unhurriedly caught up with the northerners' horse caravan...... But this time, the other party did not dismount as before. They were still running forward.

The light cavalry drew their crossbows and fired at each other, and as a result, arrows were also fired from the northerners' horse caravan, though they could not compete with the light cavalry. It also forced them not to get too close, and they saw that some of them were sitting at once. One of them was seated upside down, and he shot arrows at his pursuers.

The light cavalry could not do this. Because their horses were longer than their speed rather than strength, the Neustrian horses that these northerners rode were bred to carry heavy cavalry. It's not a problem to ride two people, but as for speed...... Anyway, these half-way riders couldn't outrun the hussars.

However, the hussars were still very confident at that time, and they could see that the northerners were overly spurring the Neustrian horses, and that this rapid advance would quickly tire the horses, and that the farce of the dying struggle would come to an end.

"What strange terrain did you encounter?" Jason abruptly interrupted the herald, and the other party was stunned for a moment and replied, "Yes, they ...... They abandoned their horses and ran into the Fastmarshe......"

"Uh-they're crazy?" Jason spun around in circles, "That swamp is something that the locals don't dare to enter!" ”

"They all went in...... One of our brothers didn't react and followed him into the swamp, almost confessing, but fortunately the man next to him quickly pulled him. The herald said, "Our captain does not believe in evil, so he has to dismount and enter, and we have stopped him, Chief of Staff, this matter is really evil!" ”

"You're doing the right thing!" Jason said, "If you dismount, you will not be their opponent, your advantage is to fight immediately, not on foot, your captain is not calm enough, you are right to stop him, but...... Alas, are these northerners really crazy? Didn't they fall? ”

"It doesn't seem to be ...... I couldn't eat for sure, there was a lot of fog in the swamp at that time, and I couldn't see them in a blink of an eye...... However, I didn't hear them call for help......" Recalling that eerie scene, the herald's stomach twitched a little.

"Also, the swamp is already foggy, and the sun hasn't risen yet, according to your description...... These damn bunches! Cunningly cunningly! Jason spun around in a circle again, "Huh? What else would you like to say? ”

The herald hesitated for a moment, and stammered, "I heard from Brother Tom that there are banshees who specialize in confusing people in the swamp, and these northerners must be fascinated by these banshees, and they want to enter the swamp regardless of life or death, Chief of Staff, quickly order the brothers stationed there to be called back, if it's too late, I'm afraid that they will also be enchanted by the banshees, and it will be too late!" ”

"Nonsense!" Jason muttered, "You have an amulet, and even a banshee won't hurt you!" Who's that? Tom? He doesn't have a good faith! Make a note of it! When he goes back, he's going to retake his faith lessons! ”

"But......" The herald looked very frightened.

"Nothing!" Jason shouted, and he felt very irritated that the fat that was about to be in his hands was running away again and again, "Tell them to watch the swamp, and don't let those cunning bastards kill them!" ”

After giving orders to the heralds, he ordered: "All of you hurry forward!" ”

Then, he ran to Luo Yi's side and asked her in a low voice, "You said, does the swamp banshee really exist?" ”

"Believe me, in this world, living people are much more terrifying than banshees," Luo Yi replied to him seriously, "If I were a banshee with magic and not a mortal, I wouldn't have summoned such a group of people to my side." (To be continued......)
