Scorching sun.

The long march, like a spear, ran through the whole of Jerusalem.

In the stands, the servants of the aristocratic families were already serving cold and sweet wine to their masters with golden trays of silver wine glasses.

The red-haired Count Renard, who looked defiantly at Lothar, who was standing in front of the cathedral and sweating profusely, raised his glass and drank it all.

"Whew-"

He let out a strange cry of relief, and then took another cup and poured it into the dirt beneath his feet in front of Lothar.

Lothar smiled at him, and with pity in his smile, he pretended to whisper to the flag bearer beside him, Hans von Sego, who held the title of knight, "Poor Count Renard, imprisoned in a tower by Nur al-Din of Syria (Saleh's father), it is said that it was a full eighteen years, and he may have been suffering from madness, otherwise he would not have spilled sweet wine on the ground. ”

Hans also showed pity: "May the Father bless him from madness as soon as possible." ”

Count Renard's face suddenly turned pale.

He muttered in a low voice, "It's fifteen years, not eighteen, this stupid boy is as annoying as his father." ”

He had a deep sense of dislike for Lothar.

But he didn't regard Lothar as a "political enemy" that he had to eradicate, but for a combination of various reasons, a hateful nasty ghost!

Lothar said to the hussars behind him, "Let's go, we must follow the marching party and escort them out of the city." If you feel the heat is unbearable, bear with it a little longer, and I have ordered the garment to be ordered for you to be given a burqa to shade you, and it will be delivered to you in two days' time. ”

The hussars didn't need robes, but the heat of the day in the Holy Land meant that they had to have a burqa to protect them from the sun.

Ulm said respectfully, "My lord, this is nothing, and a noble person like you is also enduring the heat. ”

Having completed their task of guarding the king and the clergy, they began to march on either side of the marching procession.

The hussars clenched the ceremonial armed swords in their hands, their tall postures, and bright armor attracted a lot of attention from the girls watching on both sides.

Some of the proud knights taunted with envy and envy, "Behold, this is the cavalry of the country baron, with feathers all over their backs, like the peacocks of the royal garden who courted the opposite sex." ”

Someone muttered, "I know that the bright armor of the Milanese style, under the scorching sun, will resemble an iron plate for the barbecue of Turkic barbarians, and it is not practical at all." ”

As the first hussar, Ulm could not help but say loudly to his comrades: "Look, they look envious, and they want to stick their eyes to our armor. ”

"Everyone has seen it, even the knights are envious of our armor, and the lord has bestowed such honors and valuables on us, and we need to do our best to give back to the lord with loyalty!"

"That's right, we're brave hussars."

"When the winged cavalry arrives, all the infidels will be terrified!"

The hussars held their heads high, and their unique armor and ornaments made them more and more huddled, and something called "collective pride" sprouted in them.

Ahead, Lord Raymond, dressed in a blue robe and cape, rode up and called out, "Baron Lothar." ”

"Good morning, Lord Tiberiath."

Lothar replied respectfully.

He was a little surprised that the leader of the Jue Party, who was in the Holy Land and could be called a man with one hand, would actually talk to him.

"Baron Lothar, I had a close relationship with your father, and I was worried that you would become like him, obsessed with waging wars one after another."

Lothar was a little puzzled, "My lord, I don't know much about what my father has done here, but if my father's ideas are so radical, he should have a good relationship with Count Renard." ”

Raymond's serious face couldn't help but show a smile: "Your father once openly declared that Renard was a reckless fool without brains. ”

Lothar was stunned.

Was the Count of Werner so fierce before?

It's not been a few years since now.

"Well, your majesty has told me what you have done, and it is your share of the credit, and I am glad that you realize that there is a possibility of compromise and cooperation between us and the infidels."

Count Raymond greeted Lothar with a smile and departed.

Lothar pondered for a moment, presumably that Baldwin IV had informed the regent Raymond of their alliance with King Saleh, and that was why there was such a conversation.

The Crusaders of the Northern Expedition finally left Jerusalem.

The huge team set off a long loess.

The nobles and knights followed behind the crusaders to bid farewell to Count Raymond and other nobles who went north.

It's not just the nobles of the Lords who are leaving.

Like Earl George Lin, who is biased towards the Queen Mother's party.

He had devoted his life to the restoration of the Edessab Kingdom, and he had waited for such an opportunity, and he naturally did not miss it.

You know, he is not the only heir to the title of Count of Edessa, if he doesn't go, when the time comes, he will have fast hands and slow hands, and it will be bad if his younger brothers and sisters take the lead.

The Count of Thierrière of Flanders was also prominently listed.

Soon after he arrived in the Holy Land, he joined Count Renard's side, and most of the knights and nobles who were new to the Holy Land would join Count Renard's side.

They were more radical, because only war could make them meritorious and fiefdoms.

And the regent Count Raymond is more like the local nobles, in order to fight against these latecomers who want to compete with them for food, jointly elected the "alliance leader".

Their style is naturally biased towards obedience, even if they reach an agreement with the infidels, they do not want the war to burn their own territory, and even if they win, they will only end up with chicken feathers.

...

In the evening, Jerusalem gradually descended into darkness.

Lothar galloped through the city with hussars, shouting and commanding: "Hans, go over there, Ulm, take a man over there... Curfews have been enacted in the fire-worshipping districts in the east and the Jewish quarters in the south, and no one is allowed to leave the house from now on. ”

After the expedition, the problem of law and order in the city of Jerusalem became acute.

Prior to this, during the period when the ruffians and hooligans were arrested one after another to join the army, the law and order in Jerusalem was significantly improved.

But with the departure of a large number of Christian soldiers and knights, the city's population has slipped to a dangerous level.

Today, the knights of the Royal Knights distributed in various royal estates are leading the soldiers back.

The strength of the Royal Knights was replenished, so Lothar was captured by Baron Gofrey as a "strong man" and patrolled the city with him to maintain law and order.

In the afternoon, already Zoroastrians, gathered under the domed altar to listen to a "sage" preaching, almost causing trouble, and now they are all hanging on the gallows to dry.
