After two days, they will go north, eggs, vegetables, bread, a little meat, offal, fruit wine, these foods, packed in wooden barrels, after training, will be quickly digested by the mercenaries to replenish enough physical strength.

That night, Bran found people above the squad leader, and some excellent old mercenaries, toasted one by one, and painted cakes for them.

Powerful mercenary groups can even have manors and fiefdoms in the fiefdom, which are both nobles and independent and autonomous.

If the battle is won, Teutonic will be able to move forward.

In addition to Teuton, the other three mercenary groups in the city also sent 30 to 50 people each.

Bran's army joins the Barthab side.

Only half a month after the consulship ceremony, the Count of Barcelona mobilized to attack the two counts of its neighbors in the north, and in Florence, especially with the support of Madame Wugen, the total number of troops was claimed to be 5,000 (in fact, more than 4,000), most of them infantry and pikemen.

In Bran's queue, he also got twenty cold spears made of "Sicilian stone".

Among them were the Teutonic regiments, as well as other groups, which Bran set up as a "mobile team" and put Desley in command.

The cold Sicilian stone, with a blue glow, Bran tried to touch it, but after a while, his hand stinged, and he didn't dare to try again.

After the training, the troops were mobilized.

The battle was one of the largest military operations in Northern Italy in 15 years.

Nefer Michael, Count of Barcelona.

First, he sent a message declaring war, and then personally led the troops.

When he entered the enemy's territory, he engaged in two small exchanges of fire within ten days, and Nefer won one after the other, quickly taking control of the enemy's woods, stone fields, marketplaces, two wooden forts, and a parish.

Six days later, he fought a decisive battle on the river, crushing the enemy's army of nearly 1,000 men, and capturing one of the two rival counts, "Gawain Casson".

The count is very valuable, and the market price of the peninsula is that a count is worth at least "seventy gold rubles".

Coupled with the knights and parish priests under Count Gawain, victory and gold were close at hand, but perhaps it was too smooth to make Nefer lightly defeated.

Next is a head-to-head battle, with the two sides competing with swords and guns, but this time they swallowed the defeat.

On the day of the firefight, the coat of arms of a gold star shining in the middle of the four corners of the black and white grid quickly appeared on the battlefield like a meteor.

This is another hostile earl, the northern mercenary group invited at the cost of "daughter marriage", which is very brave.

The main formation of Count Never was also broken out of the gap by the opponent's cavalry, and two henchmen were killed in the battle.

In this defeat, nearly 200 people were lost.

The land that was originally swallowed, Nefer returned half of it.

The castle of Count Gawain Casson, which had already been captured, was left behind by the timid Duke Daniel, but the Duke decided that the battle had been won, and transferred half of his troops (500 men) back to the territory to reduce his military expenditure.

The information was leaked, and when this advance force passed through the forest farm, it was suddenly shot through the body by Changmao and bows and arrows that appeared out of thin air, causing chaos, and after losing 20% of the number, it completely collapsed.

Several people fled back to the castle to tell the duke that the other party had gathered troops to come here, and when Danielle heard this, he was so frightened that he didn't even want the city.

Panicked and fled from the night, almost caught up halfway, and escaped, but in the morning, his knights found that the owner of the carriage had died violently (suspected to be scared to death)!

At this time, the tripartite alliance of Cannae, Barcelona, and Florence was in danger of rupture, and the duke's wife wanted to withdraw troops to defend the fiefdom, after all, the heir was only nine years old, and the mother was weak and had few children.

Albert did not sleep soundly for a whole week, and finally secured the Duke's wife, but within a month the winner was decided.

Mrs. Meghan negotiated with the nobles in the city, announcing that she would send more people into the assault and end it as soon as possible, and if the other party did not come out to fight, then she would burn the farmland, forest farms, pollute the water sources, and force them to come out and fight.

All mercenary groups and general guards in the city are under the command of Teutonic mercenaries.

On 17 August, the reorganization of the troops was completed.

Bran and Howard became commanders of the 600 forces.

It was also found out that the mercenary opponent who suddenly joined was the "Star Mercenary Group", which was active in the Alps and the surrounding areas, and had some relationship with the Livonian Knights (owned by Bavaria), one of the four major knights of the Light World.

The total number of the regiment was about five hundred, and I don't know how many came this time, but after counting the other troops, it was guessed that the enemy army was about two thousand.

On Bran's side, including the peasant soldiers, it is currently close to three thousand seven hundred.

Although there was an advantage in numbers, the training and equipment of the regular army were almost the same as those of the two sides.

You can't have a sword and helmet for everyone, but you can do it with leather armor or iron (scythes and daggers are also counted).

The brigade entered the castle of the Count of Bassanifer first, replenished some old equipment for the soldiers, and advanced at full speed.

At this time, it was still in a friendly attack, but the day before Bran joined the army, Count Never clashed with the Star Mercenary Group on a hill, fighting for the outer space, and each side lost between 50 and 80 men.

Count Nefer was shot in the arm by a knight Changmao while charging, and after a few hours, unable to stop the bleeding, began to have a fever.

The Barcelona brigade retreated to a wooden fort that belonged to the enemy.

More than 2,000 people could not enter the wooden fort, and most of them were distributed on the periphery.

In the room, the physician sees and the priest prays.

Earl Niever's twelve-year-old heir, "Chuken", was also present, looking at his usually majestic father, moaning in pain, his face turned pale with fright.

But there was no nurse to comfort Chucken, which made him cry.

A man wearing a cloak and looking like a lord physician beside him endured this for a long time.

Finally, when the physician and the priest were temporarily leaving, he slapped Chuken hard.

"You are a knight, the son of an earl, not a weak woman in a dress! If you dare to cry again, I will sell your nurse to the north. ”

The beater was Liana, and the Count loved her daughter, and when Liana couldn't ask for it, he let her accompany her to see his victory.

But when victory was one step away, the situation immediately changed, and the allied duke died violently, and he was seriously injured.

Just now, when Liana's father's subordinate knights, who had drunk a little wine, broke in to see his father, they sneered at him in a verbal conflict, saying that it was the unprovoked use of women to go into battle that made the Count so ......

In a moment of fire, Liana slapped Chuacin in the face.

The current mother of the two, strictly speaking, is the cousin of the biological mother, and after the death of the mother, the family decides to let the young aunt marry the father, and the woman of the same race to marry a man, which is very common.

Although it is intimate, it is always separated by a layer of cloth, and the new mother has a child five years ago, so she is more polite and unfamiliar.

Chuken was brought up by his sister Liana, so he loved her and feared her.

Chucken touched his face with his hand, his face distorted.

"I'm sorry, brother, I don't want to."
