Chapter 223: Personal Charisma

Previous Chapter

Tyny's words not only stunned Robbien, but even the knight almost didn't react.

Everyone unknowingly fell into a thinking misunderstanding.

That is, Xu Siling is invincible.

Coupled with the unsuccessful sneak attack on the city walls, this further strengthened Robbion and the knight's thoughts.

Xu Siling is very powerful, so powerful that it is invincible.

But it also indirectly made Robine ignore one thing.

Xu Siling is strong, but it doesn't mean that his soldiers are also strong.

Tenny then asked, "Lord Bode, how many soldiers are there in Fort Dramis?" ”

Robbien still didn't answer, he didn't know Tyny well.

But he was distracted by Tyny.

Xu Siling's troops were less than a hundred.

Their advantage is that their soldiers wear armor that they have never seen before, and the performance of the armor is much better than that of ordinary chain mail. Another advantage is that they are all on horseback, and there are no infantry.

When necessary, Xu Siling's troops can break away at will.

But the situation in Dramisburg is much better than in Alstom.

Not counting the knights, knights' servants, and temporary conscripts, there were as many as three hundred standing troops alone.

There were eight knights Robine, and there were many knights, and counting the soldiers who could mount horses, there were more than seventy cavalry troops.

This combat power is already very good among the viscounts of the Raya county.

If the two armies faced each other, of course, Robine directly asked the soldiers to push over and crush Xu Siling's troops.

But he was the defender of the city.

Moreover, Xu Siling's troops of less than 100 people surrounded Dramis Fort.

To be honest, it's a bit ugly to get out of here.

Usually the besieging side wants to besiege the city, and it is most reasonable that the number of people is higher than that of the defending side.

But the number of people in Dramisburg was more than three times that of Xu Siling, and they were so besieged

Tyny's offer was tempting.

But the problem that put it on Robine is

Will he really be able to defeat Xu Siling?

Although he had a lot of soldiers to respond, he only had more than 70 people when he rode out and raided Xu Siling's camp.

Xu Siling still has more people than him.

There is a characteristic of the territory of Dramisburg, that is, there are many trees, but if there are too many infantry, Xu Siling notices that it is not good, so he can naturally ride a horse and turn around into the mountains and forests, and in the end it is Robine who is pulled and detoured, and he can't chase if he wants to, and he has to look at the other party's face if he wants to fight.

The mobility of the cavalry is here, and whenever there is a surprise attack out of the city at Dramis Fort, it will be detected by Xu Siling's troops.

Just for a moment, Robine had already thought of the possibility of going out of the city to encircle and suppress Xu Siling, and being defeated by Xu Siling in eight ways.

And that's just talk about the disparity in the allocation of troops.

Not counting Xu Siling's personal force.

Without armor, he dared to risk his life and enter the city gate alone to enter the city and open the gates.

Who else in the whole of France can be this madman like Xu Siling?

Xu Siling, who has no armor, is so crazy, isn't it too much to have armor?

Tyney saw that Robbien had not spoken, and he became a little anxious.

"Speak, Lord Baldur! In the end, if you have this idea, I also have some manpower, and I can give it to you! ”

Robbien glanced at Tyney and said indifferently: "I will consider it, if I really need your help from Downs when necessary, I will not be polite." ”

"That means, you have that idea?"

"It's not that simple, Downs."

"I don't understand, we have more people than Raya Knights!"

"That's true, but we don't have much more soldiers on our horses than the Raya knights, and there are too many infantry in our city, once they show their intention to encircle and suppress the Raya knights, the Raya knights can bring the troops to break away and return to the mountains and forests, and we can't chase them deeply."

"So. There are so many of us, and we have to be surrounded by less than 100 Raya knights? ”

Tyny was completely unable to comprehend this fact.

"It may be a little difficult to accept, but this is indeed the truth, the vicinity of Dramisburg is not a plain, there are too many mountains and forests, they have no problem hiding as much as they want, and the deep pursuit will fall into their advantage, they can intercept our soldiers at will."

Robine taught, "I know what you're thinking, Downs. ”

"It's true that we are many people, but don't forget, the troops of the Raya knights are all cavalry, and they are not bad at mobility, which leads to their high initiative. But again, they have flaws. ”

"The flaw is that once we want to forcibly attack the city, his cavalry troops are tofu, which will be shattered when they collide, and they don't have any siege equipment, and the way we will win is to hold Fort Dramis."

Tenny smiled weirdly: "What about the knight of Laya asking for help?" Call Miss Raya's troops, what about your Dramis Fort? ”

The knight sensed that Tyny's tone was not very good, and immediately scolded: "Downs, pay attention to the words you speak!" Lord Bode is kind enough to take you in, Lord Bode doesn't need you to teach you how to do it! ”

Robine waved his hand unconcernedly, motioning for the knight to back away.

"Then let him shout, let Miss Raya attack the city! It's not that I haven't fought this kind of battle, we have to hold on, as long as you don't appear in other people's field of vision, and you can't let the other party prove that you are here with me, Miss Raya can't bear the public opinion of a protracted siege war. ”

Tyny wondered: "Why can't you bear it?" Miss Raya is clearly flipping the table! ”

"I don't know what happened to the looting of the village of Tamuburg. But don't forget what Miss Raya and Knight Raya did in Alstom. ”

"What do you mean?"

"They had conquered the town of Alstom, but they had not plundered the people, but had Angus executed for plundering the county's lands. At that time, the Raya knight with enough troops, even if he did not personally go out and arrange for men to go out to attack the village of the three of you Dons brothers, it would be enough to take your heads before you could fully react! ”

Robbien tapped on the table, telling Tyny to think.

"But Miss Raya and Knight Raya didn't do that, how did they do it?"

Tyney was stunned: "They. Write to the three brothers and let us lead the troops to the town of Alstom to disarm and surrender and plead guilty"

"Downs, if you're a Raya knight, what is the reason why you don't choose to attack the three Downs brothers when you've already broken through Alston Town and have enough troops?"

Tenny was uncertain: "Because. Fallacies and fame? ”

"Probably." Robion wasn't particularly sure, but he felt right: "Miss Raya is a holy woman, and it is impossible for her to rob the people, and even if she wants to rob, it is impossible to rob the people of her own county." Miss Raya's conviction of the Downs family has no substantive evidence in essence, and it is purely based on Miss Raya's one-sided words, but no one in the county dares to refute her. ”

This is the identity that Feier has.

It has always been the one who asserts and who gives the proof.

But it was useless to put this on Fei'er.

She says you're at fault, then you're at fault.

If you want to prove that you're right, you'll have to find your own evidence to prove that you're right.

This situation is outrageous in modern times.

But in the Middle Ages, it was not surprising at all.

"It took three days from the Raya knight to write to you to ask you Downs brothers to go to Alstom to disarm and surrender, presumably to protect themselves from the attack on Alstom."

"As long as my brothers and I really go to Alstom Town to confess, it will directly represent that Miss Raya has done nothing wrong and that she will burn my brother Angus, my sister Jeanna, and my family, all right."

Robbien nodded: "That's right, so Miss Raya seems to be flipping the table in your eyes, but in fact, she wants to occupy Alston Town reasonably, she is not afraid that the three of you Downs brothers will escape, because she thinks that no one dares to touch her moldy head now, and thinks that the Raya knight in her hand is enough to make the nobles of the county fearful." ”

"But it's a pity that I'm not afraid of her Raya, they are the murderers who framed and forced the former king to death! I'm not going to bow down to them, so she can't imagine that I'll take you in. ”

Tyney was convinced by Robbion's claim, because it was completely self-justifying.

The fact that Phil did not plunder the people and did not take prisoners is strange enough.

In addition, Xu Siling wrote a letter to the three brothers earlier, asking them to confess their guilt and come over and disarm.

They were just packing up and running for their lives, and they didn't really think about it at all.

For example, Xu Siling three days ago could have sent troops to directly divide the troops into three ways to attack the three of them, and the three Tang Si brothers were simply caught, and they couldn't escape.

But Xu Siling did not do this, but used humiliating and coercive letters to force their Downs brothers to confess.

Not even afraid that they would run away.

Tenny now followed Robion's conjecture and thought about it seriously, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that Robion was right.

Tenny: "According to Master Baldur, it makes perfect sense why the Raya Knight didn't bring Miss Raya's troops to Dramisburg, but only his own! ”

Robbien nodded, "That's right." Miss Raya cares about reputation, even if Raya Knight can represent Miss Raya again, but in order to worry about reputation, he can't let Raya Knight run around with his troops at will, so he can only let Raya Knight take the lead. ”

Tyny: "Raya Knight was deflated by Lord Bode, and it will take time to return to Alstom Town to call for people to attack the city, especially Miss Raya has to worry about the bad fallacy caused by the protracted siege war, so Master Bode is so confident." ”

"Downs, you're right, you're much smarter than your brother Angus." Robbien squinted slightly, "I have always been loyal to the royal family, John is ready to be canonized as a king, as the future king, he can not care about the life or death of the Downs family, but he can't care about my life or death." ”

"But John's son Charlie, in the hands of the Raya knight, will John really speak out to stop this?"

Robine is confident in this: "At least some simple remarks will be made to stop Miss Raya's actions, and if only because of John's remarks, Charlie will be put in danger, then it can only be said that Miss Raya's pattern is too small." As long as John speaks out, the people who will stand on my side will be the nobles of the whole kingdom. ”

"Lord Baldur is amazing! I admire! ”

Tyny was really convinced at this time, feeling that Robbien in front of him was both smart and powerful, much better than himself and his brother Angus.

Robine was also very comfortable being boasted: "Miss Raya, who cares about reputation, is difficult to maintain even if the city is sieged, what we have to do is very simple, that is, to defend Dlamis Fort, and then Dons you, just stay here honestly, don't be exposed to the eyes of outsiders, let Miss Raya find evidence that you are in Dramisburg, it will be difficult for me to do it." ”

"I see! Master Bode. ”

With that, Robine got up and left with the knight.

After leaving, Robine commanded the knight beside him.

"Let the soldiers of the city wall keep an eye on the camp of the Raya knights, tell me if there is any change in the camp, arrange the servants by the way, and be ready to attack at any time these days."

The knight couldn't help but be stunned, when he was in the living room, Robine obviously didn't say that.

Isn't it true that defending the city is the best option for Dramisburg?

Seeing the knight's doubts, Robine smiled.

"Do you think that we just need to defend the city with peace of mind, anyway, Miss Raya's troops come to support, and there is nothing we can do."

The knight nodded: "When I was in the living room, Lord Bode said the same thing. ”

"It's the safest victory." Robion's eyes narrowed, "But Tyney was right at the beginning, there aren't many people with Raya knights, and we have the possibility of going out of the city to encircle and suppress us, not to mention that we are three times as many as him." ”

"Then I'll have people prepare in advance."

"Hmm." Robine added indifferently, "But the Raya knight is a variable after all, and he can't get out of the city to encircle and suppress it, so it's two words." But if I have the chance, I must capture and force the murderer of the former king to death! Anyway, you arrange for someone to keep an eye on me, let me know if there is any news, and I will seize it when I have the opportunity. ”

The knight was immediately in good spirits, and he was convinced of Robion.

Robine is a loyal and faithful noble lord, and he is also smart, and he can always sort things out and convince people on his own.

Even if the enemy is the perfect knight of the kingdom, the opponent has not been defeated so far.

But none of the soldiers at Fort Damis fell into decline, which had to do with Robine's unique charisma.

And Xu Siling of Dramis Fort watched the executioner soldiers camp.

He sat somewhere quietly thinking about a way to storm Dramisburg.

Of course, Xu Siling couldn't have imagined that Robine of the castle had helped him make up a lot of brains.

Robbien guessed correctly, Phil cares about fame, and Phil lives on the reputation of the people to eat.

But it doesn't mean that Fei'er still cares so much about reputation this time.

Robbien couldn't guess that the reason why Xu Siling and Fei'er wrote to the Downs brothers for three days to escape for their lives was not for fame at all.

It's simply to make the Downs brothers bait.

The noble viscounts of the Laya Earls are fish and shrimp.

Whoever eats the bait should be caught by him and Fei'er.

Xu Siling and Fei'er's goal is territory, and it has never been fame.

Robine guessed correctly, but the idea was wrong from the beginning, and it can only be wrong later.

Xu Siling did have the idea of calling Fei'er to add more manpower to help besiege the city, but at least not now.

He already had a plan in mind that he could try, but he needed another decoy to make it perfect.

Just as Xu Siling was thinking, Terry arrived.

"Xu, the scout has returned, Jerome Downs, Tyny's younger brother, who has been taken in by the nobles of Lupo Town!"

Xu Siling's eyes lit up.

The plan to try to storm Dramis was perfect! (End of chapter)
