The battle ended very quickly, from the first crossbow arrow fired at the fence wall to the last villager being driven out of his house and taken to the central square of the village, in just a quarter of an hour. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoCelts had made a point of trying to avoid civilian casualties before the war, so the vast majority of herders were captured alive.

In order to prevent a repeat of what had happened before, Celt decisively refused everyone's request to talk, and anyone who dared to open their mouths would immediately have a knight put a knife on their necks. The Celts left only three hundred knights to guard them, and the rest went from house to house to search for food. Fortunately, they were all regular knights, and they did not take anything other than the necessary food. If this were a troop of horse thieves, the girls of the village would not have escaped the murderous hands.

Seeing the knights carrying their stored grain on the horses one by one, and taking the horses in the stables, many young herdsmen had fire in their eyes, and several people wanted to stand up and say something, but they were all held down by the elders next to them. The guard's knights' cold gaze swept over them, and they glanced at them with contempt.

The village had a large amount of grain in stock, but most of it was not loaded due to the limited amount of horses to carry and the inability to carry slow wagons on the rapid march. Celtic deliberately selected some light vegetables, and although the grassland is full of plants, there are not many that can be eaten. There is no need to worry about meat in the prairie, but the nutrients rich in vegetables are not available to meat, and Celt knows the importance of vegetables to warriors, so he specially set aside a few horses to carry vegetables.

In difficult times, a naan is enough for a soldier to eat, and the portion is small in size, which is very easy to carry. In contrast, the dried meat is not so sought-after, and a considerable amount of the dried meat is loaded on the cart and returned to the herders.

The herdsmen who were squatting on the ground looked at the knights who had brought the grain out and returned it to them in confusion, and Celt saw that the grain was almost loaded, so he came to discuss life with them.

Celt rode up to the herdsmen, their hooves raising a cloud of dust on the ground, "Edwin betrayed Satya, betrayed the people of the continent of Thesea. He took refuge in the Land of the Sun for the sake of glory and wealth, and from today on, all the inhabitants of the Sphinx region will be listed as the target of my Oslan Empire's attack! The people of the Land of the Sun slaughter the natives of our continent and kill my compatriots, it is better to be beasts! I read that you are also the inhabitants of my Shusyari Continent, and I will not kill you, but we are enemies now, so it is necessary to grab some loot. But we don't take it all, we only take what we need and leave. If you have any conscience, you should rise up against Edwin and re-establish the iron-clad steppe cavalry of the Satyan Empire! I have to say that you are the toughest hussars I have ever seen, but now, hehe, I see a bunch of traitors seeking glory!"

The people on the steppe were already very angry, and Celtic's words immediately aroused their blood, and several young men stood up and scolded Celt one after another, ignoring the knights' spears. Celt wasn't angry, he was there for that. He waved his hand for the knights to stand aside, and continued, "If you have the backbone, then ask your lord, ask the Edwin who is now hiding in Randall, why did he do this? He betrayed not only you Satya, but the whole continent! You say, as the inhabitants of the Sphinx, are you ashamed of such lords?"

Celtic's fierce gaze swept over the crowd, and the angry herdsmen began to calm down, the village was better informed than the herdsmen everywhere, who had long known about Edwin's defection. It's just that for them, who the lord is loyal to doesn't have much to do with them, and Edwin himself doesn't care much about them, except for those conscripted light cavalry, everyone else still lives their own lives. The mountain is high and the emperor is far away, to be honest, even if the Satya Empire is destroyed, it will not affect them too much, anyway, they have hundreds of domestic animals in a family, and they are not afraid of starvation at all.

But Celtic's words now are like a basin of cold water poured over his head, and what kind of person on the prairie can't tolerate the most? It's a traitor, so only people like Uncle Sam who have experienced war will have such a big reaction when they learn that Edwin has defected to the enemy. It's just that for these people who have gathered into a village, a stable life has gradually worn out their original temperament, and people will become more and more afraid of things as they become more and more sleek.

Celt no longer pays attention to these people, his goal is not to convince them to help him, after all, the lordship system on the continent for tens of thousands of years has made these people lose the ability to resist, if he pins his hope on persuading them to raise an army to rebel, that is the ability of the protagonists in some YY novels.

The knights marched out of the village in a row, and Celtic's words caused the whole village to fall silent, and before they could react, Celtic took them in and ran away, for fear that they would suddenly remember that they had been robbed and fought with him.

Since this incident, the central city of the Sphinx has received reports of attacks on either the eastern grasslands or the western grasslands, and according to the villagers who reported the incident, the enemy suddenly jumped out like a blood-colored leopard that had been lurking in the headwind, hitting and retreating with one blow. There were no classes in the steppe that could leave this pure light cavalry force, but what they didn't know was that if they did send cavalry to chase them, they might be able to capture a lewd knight in heavy armor.

However, the head of the Sphinx still decided to report the matter, because after all, a whole squadron of cavalry inexplicably appeared in his territory, and if he was left alone, the entire rear would be in chaos. Not to mention the siege of the glacier port, even to Randall, the supply of grain and grass will become a problem.

The day after the military report, an elite team of light cavalry appeared outside their city. Behind each cavalryman was a short bow, neat white rhinoceros leather armor, a thin moon scimitar more than a meter long straddling the horse's back, a shiny horse boot with a snowy dagger, all white military horses, the whole army stood outside the city gate without making a sound, and even the horses stopped breathing.
