062. The Age of Heroes

Two days later, Bran looked at the majestic castle of Bayern on the opposite side.

There are ninety-nine rooms in total, and many works of art from the "Heroic Age" are also housed.

After the chaos and disorder of the Dark Ages, the world of light finally ushered in a small revival, when people admired chivalry, lords expanded manors, new goods were born, cities appeared, and the court succession system matured...... From simplicity to cumbersomeness, it is the characteristic of this era.

But at that time, there was no uniform name, and on the pages of the church, some clergy were keenly aware of the change, calling it the "Age of Dawn."

The term "Heroic Age" was first coined around A.E. 1232 by a minor nobleman of the Duchy of Venice, "Hunter Green", in his private writings.

In the winter of A.E. 1226, in order to write a book, Hunter sold the donkeys and fields on which he depended for his livelihood, and visited the hometowns of the characters in the books, but the expenses were huge, and as soon as he left the peninsula, he was too shy to return to his hometown.

The book is based on the lives of ten monarchs in different regions, and when Hunter could not travel to other regions, he bought copies of local literature from the printing house, or asked sailors about the customs of the sailors with a glass of rum in the harbor.

It took several years to finally "make up" the book - the hero's song.

There are many mistakes, such as confusion of place names and even a lot of hearsay.

But the more criticized it is, the more popular it is in the market, so that the words of the heroic era are spread and the world is catchy.

A.E. 1066 "William the Conqueror" invaded England to establish a kingdom, and the northern frontier was the first year.

A.E. 1230's "Shange the Dragon Slayer" was crowned by the Holy See (also the year of the plague outbreak), and the writing was stopped here.

As a poor duchy nobleman, you're not welcome to say that Hunter's book is a big shot at the sycophants of Grand Duke Shange, and it is very comfortable and enjoyable.

Hunter took out an unknown incident in the lives of the first nine monarchs and poured it all into the last hero.

Shange's name was at least tripled in value by the book, and a rebellion was put down, and Hunter was at the pinnacle of his life, receiving a new title and fief.

And because this book only has the monarchs of the Illuminati world, except for Shangge who still existed at that time, the others were ancients, too far away from people, and later gave birth to knightly literature in different regions, and most of the knights or descendants around these ten monarchs have not declined to this day.

Incidentally, Hunter was the ancestor of the Carroll family, but his descendants abandoned the military ......

……

Although the city of Bayern is good, because it is located in the plain area, commercial development, and wide roads, so that there is no danger to defend, so later the construction of a moat was dug and a defensive tower was set up on the periphery to defend the city.

The nobles of the city were entering into a confidential meeting at this time.

The false information provided by Ambu said that the enemy Count Nifer of Barça was in a state of death, so the coalition troops on the opposite side were unstable and were about to retreat.

At the same time, during the evacuation, people will be sent to harvest ripe wheat fields along the road and destroy water conservancy facilities.

As a result, it will be difficult for you to survive this winter.

"Ladies and gentlemen from afar (Star Mercenary Group), how do you think you should deal with it?"

Count Drow, the lord of the city who resisted Bran, asked.

Just two months ago, Count Basanifer also sent an envoy to talk about marriage with his eldest daughter, but he didn't expect it to be a spying, and then his territory was attacked, and he has been in a passive situation.

Now there is only a little food left in the city, and with the foreign aid invited, it is very wasteful, and there is not much food in the kitchen.

After Count Drow finished speaking, everyone looked at the Star Mercenary Regiment, and a medium-sized deputy commander of the regiment stood up and explained the battle situation on the sand table map.

He is the deputy head of the regiment, Cardinai Brayden, and the son of the leader of the Star Mercenary Regiment.

Because of his short stature, he deliberately grew a beard to make his appearance more stable and mature.

Descended from the Bavarian aristocratic family called "Braden", to his grandfather's generation, his grandfather left the earl's house of the main family and founded the Star Mercenary Regiment.

His father, Nelly Braden, once led people to resist the border invasion of the Swabian Kingdom, and was given a piece of border land and became a "border baron".

Central and Eastern Europe, because of the vast land area and the large number of bordering countries, are prone to the first wave of enemy invasion.

Therefore, the kings and dukes often gave special privileges to the lords of this region, and gradually the nations followed suit.

"Frontier" means that they can "act arbitrarily", and the nobles should create their own laws and raise the upper limit of the number of troops according to the needs of governance.

Therefore, whoever adds "frontier" to his title, his immediate superior is not an earl or duke, but the supreme ruler of the country.

Two years ago, the Frontier nobles held a jousting tournament, where Cardinay, who was watching the battle, met Laura, the daughter of Count Drow.

Amazing!

He had never seen such a noble temperament.

Moral corruption, drunkenness, and indiscriminate murder were the comments given to Cardina by the local church. So the women who are close to her are not decent women.

Laura was wearing a nun's white robe at the time, and her slender and white neck, collarbones, and the hidden places below made Cardina inexplicably excited.

Laura was praying for her husband and family, not noticing that a disciple was watching her.

Cardina was used to being arrogant, and he didn't know where Laura came from, and when he saw that Laura was leaving, he accosted him directly in the church, courting him strongly, and saying that he would let the Holy Cross witness.

Later, although it was discovered that Laura had a famous flower, Cardinay's heart was already occupied by the face of a beautiful woman and could not breathe.

The Bavarian aristocracy preferred inbreeding far more than other neighboring countries, so the proportion of children with deformities or diseases was very high, and many large families had hereditary diseases.

Cardinay's wife, who has a beautiful heart but an ugly appearance, is destined to lose Cardinay's heart.

It was a political marriage, but either the father-in-law or father allowed him to keep a lover privately. As long as the legal heir is born.

Therefore, Cardinai is also very debauched, and Laura's husband is sixty years old, and it is a matter of time before he leaves the world.

Cardina began to learn how to write letters as a poet, and when he went out, he "made encounters".

Lola is disturbed.

Until half a year ago, Laura's husband died of illness, because she had no children, her husband was asked by her husband to swear an oath of chastity, she refused, so she had to leave her husband's castle and return to her hometown.

Cardinay's wife also died in childbirth at this time (he chose to keep his child alive and give birth to a son to obtain the wealth brought by his wife's marriage).

The obstacle is completely gone, Cardinai refuses to let go of this opportunity, he has an heir, and his father can no longer interfere with him.

He went to Bayern City several times in private, and this time he happened to encounter this war, so he didn't discuss it with his father, and brought some mercenaries with him, plus out of his own pocket, and asked the nobles and mercenaries he knew to support him, and gathered 500 people to this place.

Uninvited, but extremely crucial, the Earl of Drow reluctantly agreed to the marriage.

A few days ago, in the decisive battle on the river beach, Cardinay proved its value to the castle and dealt a heavy blow to the Barcelona coalition.
