Chapter 66: The Man in Black Reappears
Walking on the mountain road, Bonaparte struggled to hold on his simple trekking poles and ordered the people around him: "Rest in place, everyone!
In fact, as early as last night, Bonaparte had successfully rebelled against 100 guards and 300 serfs of the castle of Snello, and 200 of these serfs were only old and weak, women and children, and they were not capable of participating in the battle at all. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Bonaparte did lack cannon fodder troops at this time, but Bonaparte would not be stupid enough to let these women and children as his cannon fodder troops, and letting these women and children go to the battlefield would be an absolute disaster for Bonaparte, do you expect such a group of women and children who can tremble when they see mercenaries to face the knights of the noble family head-on? Obviously, this is impossible, their existence will only leave Bonaparte a security risk.
Therefore, after much deliberation, Bonaparte decided to send the 20 "redeemers" who were about to be converted back to the base camp to participate in a new round of training, in the hope that these 20 living forces could be quickly replenished into his troops, and they were accompanied by 10 guards and 200 serfs and women and children led by Hillman the Younger, as well as the spoils of war harvested by Bonaparte.
Bonaparte knew very well that he would have to face Fort Ibrahimovic and Fort Lampard after breaking through Fort Ansi, and in such a vicious situation one after another, Bonaparte could not carry these booty with him, firstly, these booty would slow down their march, and secondly, transporting the booty back to the base camp was also a kind of insurance measure, if Bonaparte's side suffered a defeat, even if he was defeated and fled back to the base camp, as long as he still had money, he could still pull out an army at any time.
It was because of the existence of these trophies that Bonaparte arranged for little Hillman to take 10 Guards soldiers to escort them together, not because he couldn't trust these "redeemers" who had just turned regular, but because Bonaparte always remembered: the heart of defense is indispensable!
So now Bonaparte's team composition has become, 220 "redeemers", 100 town militia and 10 guards soldiers, and one of the more important intentions of Bonaparte's guards sent back to the base camp is that all the soldiers of the guards are riding donkeys, and with them in the base camp, Bonaparte can also easily and quickly receive information from the outside world, so as to help him grasp the overall situation.
While Bonaparte was still resting alone, little Peter walked up to Bonaparte and whispered: "Captain, just now our brothers were on patrol and found a man in black, we wanted to get rid of him, but he proposed to meet you, so we came to ask you?"
Hearing Little Peter's report, Bonaparte instantly broke out in a cold sweat, Bonaparte already thought that his actions this time were secretive enough, but at this moment, a mysterious person suddenly appeared to see him by name, which couldn't help but make Bonaparte secretly wonder if there was a traitor around him.
This time, Bonaparte planned to divide his troops into two routes, with the "Redeemers" and 10 town militia marching slowly and conspicuously on the mainland, while he led 90 town militia over the mountains and mountains, intending to make a surprise attack on the castle of Ancy after the defenders of the castle of Ancy were deceived by the "redeemers".
Even for this reason, Bonaparte had the body of Sir Snarro sent to the castle of Anthy, saying that the serfs of the castle of Snaro had rebelled and killed Baron Snarro, who was coming towards the castle of Annecy at this time, and Bonaparte did not believe that Baron Annecy would not face the battle in person in such a situation.
Soon a man in a black cloak was brought to Bonaparte, who frowned and said coldly: "You'd better give me an explanation of how you know the route of our army! Otherwise, I don't guarantee that there won't be an extra strange corpse in this desolate ravine!"
"Hehe, funny little one. The man in black only smiled wryly when he heard Bonaparte's threat, and then said to Bonaparte in a hoarse voice: "It's not good for you to kill me, I'm just here to remind you that the crisis has come, remember to think twice before acting!"
After saying that, the man in black was about to turn around and leave without saying a word, while Little Peter and the others looked at Bonaparte with an inquiring expression, as if as long as Bonaparte gave the order, they would take action at any time.
But the strange thing is that Bonaparte didn't say anything, just looked at the black back not far away, although what the man in black said was a bit sensational, but Bonaparte faintly felt in his heart that a big net was slowly spreading at this moment, but Bonaparte was still just intuition, and there was no real evidence to support it.
Until the man in black completely disappeared into the mountain road, Bonaparte did not say anything to stop the man in black from leaving, compared to the man in black, Bonaparte was more curious about his identity and intentions, and how to learn their marching route!
After thinking about it for a while, Bonaparte really couldn't figure out that he had never come into contact with a mysterious person like the man in black in his ordinary life, but such a mysterious person actually hitched a ride with Bonaparte, and after taking a deep breath, Bonaparte secretly thought: "Regardless of the wind and rain!
After saying that, Bonaparte shouted to the soldiers behind him: "Brothers, let's go!"
