After the impact, there were still a dozen or so of the trolls still alive, including their patriarch, who shouted at Arnold with red eyes and from afar, "What about the children behind us?"

The battle was decided, Arnold stopped the cavalry, and said coldly: "Of course I killed!" In fact, the order was not given by him.

The patriarch cried out in despair: "We are struggling to the death, we just want a better life!"

The order was given by Luo Fei, and Luo Fei said angrily: "Are you here to make peace with us? You are also killing, and you are driving the old men of your clan to resist the crossbow arrows!"

The troll patriarch was speechless for a moment, and his blood-red eyes looked at the rest of his clansmen, remorseful to the extreme, that he had brought his clansmen to destruction.

"Ah~~~" Yang Tian roared, and the troll patriarch smashed a stick on his own head and fell straight down.

Luo Fei roared: "Intruder, you must have the consciousness of failure!

The cavalry behind him immediately fired crossbow arrows, and the remaining trolls were crucified to the ground.

Raphael shouted to the remaining 100 or so enemy horsemen in the distance: "Those who dismount and surrender will not be killed!" Then he shouted, "Heap all the corpses into the camp, bring out the supplies and horses, burn the camp, and go back to the city of Oro!"

Luo Fei came to Raphael's side and sneered: "I can see that you are very weak, you roar so loudly, but your heart is trembling, look how cruel I am!"

Raphael doesn't like to kill, but he is not afraid of killing, and again, he will still do it, the trolls are not Terrans, they occupy the city of Oro, in order to rule, they will definitely kill many people, and they don't care whether they are old or young, so he said: "I just hate war a little." ”

Luo Fei said disdainfully: "War is nothing at all. As far as I am concerned, do the flesh beasts deserve to be slain, to be used as food? Are those plants lifeless? In fact, they are much more pitiful than these trolls! Powerful creatures will kill them even for survival, for luxurious blankets, for beautiful decorations, for appetite. Can everything in this world be changed?"

Raphael was surprised, and after thinking about it, he sighed: "No! Desire is the driving force of all kinds of life, and it is always the source of strife." ”

Luo Fei smiled exaggeratedly: "Hahaha, that's it, Luo Lan likes gold coins, can you change her? It is the power of survival and the power of destruction." ”

Raphael looked at Luo Fei's little face, and suddenly found that this guy was not too ruthless, so his face was calm, patted Luo Fei's shoulder, and said: "Luo Fei, I never thought that you still cared about the feeling of plants, if you are a demon elf, you will definitely be great." I know you feel bad and you have to give the order to kill because you are afraid that others will say that you are weak. Don't be sad, if you change me, you will feel a little uncomfortable in your heart, except for the extreme who has a big change in their surname due to their resentment of the world, I don't think anyone likes to kill. ”

Luo Fei's chubby face twitched, and said, "Bastard! I won't talk to you, I really don't have a common language!"

In the raging fire, this troll clan of Xiangye Mountain completely disappeared in the long river of history.

After the army returned to the city of Oro, Raphael gathered all the cavalry, and in the two tactical battles, due to Raphael's strategy, the loss of horses was very small, and the two sides combined lost more than a thousand wildebeests, and those trolls tried to avoid horses when they attacked Pilsha, because wildebeest is a valuable possession. In the entire city of Oro, with almost seven thousand wildebeests, this will be a very powerful force.

The captives had been transported to the city of Oro by a wildebeest escort, and Raphael gathered two thousand captives and a thousand mercenaries willing to participate in the defense of the city.

Infantry is generally because ordinary lords are talented, become fighters or mages, after they have strength, in order to win them over, the lord will sometimes seal some potential knights, but they have no merits, the lord only rewards some minimum guarantees, such as a few acres of land, they can't afford to buy or raise wildebeest.

Raphael first shouted to the captives: "The Pavel and Oro will be united, and the power of the nobles will be redistributed, do you think that thirteen thousand infantry, on the plain, can hold back my three thousand iron horsemen?"

Then he said to the mercenaries: "Although you are for the gold coins, the danger of war is far greater than the risk, you are very good, you are all brave, I appreciate you." ”

Finally, he said: "Now, the opportunity is in front of you, I am willing to accept your allegiance, and those who fight with me will be assigned a strong wildebeest, who can win the reward after the battle, and at worst, can also become a glorious knight, and become a nobleman!"

The captives and mercenaries immediately buzzed.

It doesn't matter if you become a captive, but allegiance to Raphael is a formal betrayal, and one captive exclaims, "My lord, how can we keep our family safe?"

The crowd immediately craned their necks to look at Raphael, which was clearly their concern.

Raphael laughed and said: "Safety? This is what Edmund has to consider, do you think he will have time to go back with the infantry? You join, I will recruit some mercenaries who are willing to join, and I can make up enough 7,000 cavalry, hehehe, 7,000 cavalry! Is 13,000 infantry the opponent of 7,000 cavalry? Now is your chance, and it is impossible to get wildebeest if you surrender to me later, I am doing this now just to preserve the talents of the Oro Territory, do you think I really need your allegiance? Isn't three thousand cavalry enough to fight Edmund?"

"My lord, I am willing to be loyal!"

"My lord and me, I'm very experienced in riding battles, really!"

"My lord, I used to be a cavalryman, but my family was too poor, so I had to sell my wildebeest!"

The mercenaries shouted one after another, for the mercenaries, the opportunity to become a nobleman was too cherished, and they crowded to go to the recorder and sign their names on the allegiance form.

The captives figured out the situation and no longer hesitated, the infantry, who were originally the weakest group of the nobility, were struggling at the bottom of the nobility, and many times, they were also mercenaries.

In the end, only a few dozen knights were unwilling to take allegiance, they were very simple and did not try to deceive, they knew that even if they had false allegiance, the entire cavalry regiment would be under military control and would not have the opportunity to report it.

And this letter of allegiance is not something that can be signed casually, this is the most recognized authority of the empire, so it doesn't matter what your reason is, and only when you are captured, or when the original lord commits a great evil and dies, changing the court is not considered a violation of the rules of nobility.

Otherwise, it is a rebellion, and the lord of the rebel has the right to hunt down the rebels throughout the empire, and can even appeal to the Yanjing Noble Court and ask the masters of the Law Enforcement Group of the Noble House to participate in the roundup.

Of course, in the actual aristocratic battles, there are countless private rebellions, but everyone must abide by the rules on the surface, just like Berg's private allegiance to Firth, it is only a verbal agreement, and the letter of allegiance will never be signed until it is completed.

Raphael was not reluctant, in order to show mercy and appease the hearts of those who surrendered, he put them in prison, he knew that these people in Edmund's circle of power, more status, new distribution, would only harm their interests, they would rather be killed or imprisoned than their small family damage, they had a fluke mentality, hoping that Edmund would win.

After collecting these people, there were a lot more wildebeests, and Raphael was in the garrison regiment, and selected more than 1,000 excellent garrison members, temporarily filled into the cavalry, he will reward these garrison members after the war, but will not reward them as knights, after all, as knights, they must have combat effectiveness.

Edmund didn't burn and loot all the way, because after winning the battle, the territory would be his. He looked at the distant city of Oro, and felt a little uneasy, he did not receive any scouts from the cavalry regiment along the way, and only relied on the scouts who followed the infantry to investigate the situation nearby.

In the distance, smoke and dust rose and a group of scouts ran back, and the leader of the scouts reported: "My lord, we have patrolled a range of almost five miles, but strangely, there are neither our cavalry, nor the cavalry of Oro. ”

Edmund cursed, "These two bastards, where are you dead! There is no news from the empty horse, damn it! Go and probe again, scatter your people, and close the distance even further!"

The leader of the scouts was ordered, and he had the scouts disperse into five squads and spread out to a ten-mile radius of Oro City.

Edmund saw that the distance was almost too far and he couldn't get any closer to Oro City, so he pointed to a nearby grove and said to his subordinates: "Just camp here, damn it, my cavalry is not here, how can I block Oro City!"

Raphael, however, pulled all the cavalry, old and new, across the stone arch bridge near the riverside barracks, and trained in Edmund's domain, which was almost directly opposite the city of Oro, just across the river.

But Edmund's scouts, if they come from the stone arch bridge, they have to go around in a circle, and the range is definitely more than ten miles, and ten miles is enough distance for the army to do a good job of changing formations or prevention, and the average army will investigate this far at most.

After Edmund's army set up camp, he only felt that the city of Oro was incredibly calm.

During the hours that the soldiers rested, the scouts continued to report that nothing was found.

Edmund never thought that his five thousand cavalry were all gone, and this was the result of not giving full play to the role of scouts, intelligence is always the most important thing in war. He was furious and thought: Could it be that these two bastards had drawn the cavalry and rushed to the Rhine Fortress? In order to establish meritorious deeds? Aren't they afraid that they will destroy their little family by themselves? Damn it!

He rode a horse and took a few generals to observe the city of Oro, but was surprised to find that there were almost 4,000 warriors on the city walls, waiting for them.

Of course, the generals had wildebeest to walk, so he took the generals to the west and east corners, and saw that there were about 500 soldiers on each side of the guard.

He didn't dare to go to the south gate, otherwise, it was likely to be intercepted by the cavalry in the city, and after he returned to the barracks, he was even more depressed, how could there be so many soldiers?

He said to his generals, "What should I do?"

A knight said: "My lord, there is a magic signal transmission in the canyon, which has always been under our control, in this case, we only need to prevent the enemy from escaping from this side, and we can rest assured that we can attack the city after controlling the bridge on this side." ”

Edmund frowned and said, "Which side to attack?"

A noble aide said, "My lord, I'm afraid I can only attack one door." We don't know if those cavalry have been wiped out, and if the enemy cavalry comes out of the side gate and scatters the troops, I am afraid that we will not be able to defend it. ”
