78. Regain Roth Castle
At night, more than 400 people marched through the Colnico Pass with open fire, trying not to be detected by the lookout post at Rot Castle, unless the lookout was blind.
Now the barbarian who stays in the castle is another brother of Touyan, Yanling, who is guarding the castle with 50 barbarian cavalry.
The large number of cavalry left by Touyan to guard the castle was to watch the looting of the castle from all over the castle, including the 7 or 80 demon supporters in the former Viscount of Lot's domain.
According to the tradition on the grassland, the two Terran demon supporters need at least one barbarian cavalry to take care of them, and this is still in the grassland, not afraid of the Terran demon supporters escaping, now Yanling is in the Terran castle, and the Terran is far more familiar with the various facilities in the castle than him, so Yanling lives very carefully every day.
No matter how the Grey Goose Tribe publicized the victory, Yan Ling knew that her tribe was already at the end of its power, and the food brought by the tribe when it went south could not last long; The battle with the Maned Wolf Knights was a heavy blow to the Maned Earls, but it did not damage the Knights; Even the vassals who were besieged by a large army of their own army were spared by the sudden intervention of a high-ranking dragonborn mage.
Now the Grey Goose Tribe and Blue Sparrow City have begun to hold each other again, but many raiding teams sent by the head goose have been continuously intercepted by the Chief Wolf Knights, and now the barbarian fighting power under the Blue Sparrow Castle is less than 200 people, and the No. 50 person around him is already the last reserve of the head goose.
"Is it worth it?" Yan Ling has been asking herself these days, if she had won a few Terran territories at that time and could accept them when she saw it, then why is this today?
"Lord Yanling," a barbarian ran in outside to report, "new reinforcements have arrived, many, many people!" ”
"What?" Tou Yan and Yan Ling have been trying to find a way to ask for help on the Galloping Horse Plain, but since October, there have been very few new reinforcements, and Yan Ling can't think of "many, many people" and how many people can be there.
From the lookout at Roth Castle, looking north, more than 400 cavalrymen marched lightly in the moonlight, their black-scaled horses sweeping across the land like a black storm.
Even when the alliance was in place, Yanling had never seen 400 horsemen dispatched at the same time, and for a while Yanling even guessed that a new tribe had risen on the grassland to replace the gray goose.
Fortunately, Yan Ling keenly saw a person wearing a priest's robe and a mask, because in the team, the entire tribe knew that this person was the disciple of the old priest.
"It's a team gathered by the old priest!" Yan Ling shouted, "God bless the Grey Goose Tribe, hurry up... Hurry up and open the door to the old priest! ”
。。。。
"The castle door is open? Let's hurry up and move forward, don't let down the kindness of the Grey Goose Tribe. ”
Rand didn't think that the defenders of the castle would ignore him, let alone that the defenders of the castle would really open the door to greet him after seeing the team of 400 people coming, so Rand played tricks again, making Wendy wear the robes of the previous priest's apprentice, and he put on the outfit of the eagle priest, and sure enough, the tiger stopped the defenders.
The outermost gate of the castle slowly opened, and Yan Ling had already come out with her personal guards to greet her, and from a distance, she saw the old priest's apprentice and another priest's man dismount and walk directly towards the castle.
Yan Ling thought about it for a while, and finally remembered that this man with the eagle head mask was the eagle priest of the famous plain, this priest had clearly rejected the head goose before, and now he came here, which could only be the result of the old priest's personal plea.
"Two priests? Did the old priest tell you to come? ”
"Yes, the old priest heard that the head goose has won the battle, but he needs support even more, so let us come" The two stepped forward and pointed to the dozens of people behind them, "These are the leaders of small and medium-sized tribes we have seen since we went south"
"Then come in quickly" Yanling personally welcomed Rand, Wendy, 6 intermediate knights and more than 20 junior knights into Roth Castle.
The scene at Rot's Castle on November 27, 996 was very similar to that of the night of September 30, and an hour later the head goose's reserves had been wiped out before his main force.
After cleaning up all the wreckage, Rand patrols the castle, and as usual, the most important thing is to count the black-scaled horses and look for the looted Terran demon holders.
With 50 cavalry stationed in the castle and a large number of ownerless black-scaled horses relocated outside Rot's castle, Rand was once again given 70 black-scaled horses, and his number of mobilized cavalry increased to 470.
In the castle, Rand saw 50 demon lovers who had been plundered by the barbarians, and Rand announced on the spot that he would escort them back to the territory after the battle, and invited the reserve knights to join the Knights of the Galloping Horse to clear their shame.
After dealing with everything, Rand met the illegitimate son of Viscount Lot, this bastard son who was abandoned by the family, humiliated by the barbarians, and rejected by the count, he did not die under the earl's sword, and the count's castle was even afraid of being defiled by him, so he could only return to the camp of the gray goose, and was sent back to the castle of Lot.
Rand had heard about Viscount Lot's illegitimate son as a child, which Huck had told his closest sons as a family secret.
It is said that the mother of the bastard is a demon supporter woman of a large family, and she met Viscount Bob Roth in Dragon's Tooth City, but because she felt that Viscount Roth's status was low, she just gave birth to the child and handed it over to the viscount territory to raise, and even Viscount Roth was silent about the illegitimate child's mother.
Rand doesn't care about the bastard's past, and doesn't think it's necessary for the bastard to be responsible for what happened to the Huck family.
"Do you have any plans for the future?" Rand thought about it for a while and decided to send the smuggler's son, after all, this is not Rand's blood relative.
"You want to drive me away?" The bastard looked at Rand with some blankness.
"I've heard some rumors about you from others here, I think you may not be suitable to live in the Northwest Territories anymore, I can give you a sum of money, get out of here and live a new life" Rand looked at the bastard and told him what he thought.
"I can't survive outside the Northwest Territory"
"You can go to the Galloping Horse Plain with me in the future, or you can take other territories of the Qian Kingdom and see what you think," Rand said
The bastard left, and he didn't tell Rand that he could open the underground storeroom when he left.
However, Rand has a more professional team to open a warehouse, and the bastard child has just exited the room where Rand is, when he sees Wendy, who is about as tall as himself, enter the house, and then he hears a sentence "The teacher has opened the storeroom underground, and in addition, I have found a hidden room, and the teacher is trying to figure out a way." ”
Rand didn't know how shocked the bastard outside the room was at this moment, but followed Wendy down to the treasury and saw the 34,000 gold coins and 300 magic crystals saved by Viscount Lot.
Now that Rand has seen the world, seeing that such money will not flow into the saliva, the funds left by the viscount directly doubled Rand's wallet.
In another hidden room, there are the accounts left by Viscount Bob over the years of business and errands, which are so detailed that Rand thinks that if they are handed over to the front of the palace, it is estimated that it will cause a bloody case in the Dragon Kingdom.
