Eugenie''s words obviously failed to make the Duke pay attention to the river collar. He still regarded Arthur as an ignorant and arrogant boy. At most, he won two wars, plus some strange ideas and means.
On the contrary, it was his baby daughter''s attitude that made him very nervous, painstakingly and earnestly educated him. The core point is: the remote place like Shanghe collar is not worthy of his pearl in the north.
Like the Duke of kewilt, marquis Ted Barrett, who received the declaration of lingfengbao, also regarded it as a courageous cry when children face fear.
Now, Bedouin town.
Bedouin town is the vassal of the Barrett family and the fief of the robe family. This town, which also rose due to trade, is not large, with only more than 700 households and more than 3000 people.
But just a few hours ago, tens of thousands of people suddenly poured into the town, filling the riverside town. Needless to say, there were thousands of tents and hundreds of carriages in the open space to the north of the town, which was larger than the town.
At the moment, it was getting dark, and the serfs stationed here began to take care of the horses and prepare dinner. Campfires were lit in the camp, and the smell of food filled the tents.
On the west side of the whole camp, there is a building far from the town, which is a row of solid stone houses protected by brick walls. The stone house has two floors. It looks like a huge long limestone from a distance.
This is the house of the Robey family.
"Gentlemen, please stop eating so as not to choke on food!" Sir Cedric basaya, the vassal, was holding a letter and announcing it to both sides in the long hall of the stone house.
Sir Cedric looked like a middle-aged man with short yellow hair and a thin horse face. He was now wearing a brown soft leather coat. He is the youngest among the vassals. He has inherited the family title for only two years. He is also the most active guy among the people.
In the evening a few days ago, after receiving the statement from lingfengbao, Ted Barrett read it out in public. After causing a lot of laughter, the statement would have been torn to pieces, but the young jazz immediately asked it to eat Arthur face to face after the war.
Until just now, some of the vassals suddenly remembered this matter and shouted to him to take it out and read it, which pleased Sir Andrey Robey.
Cedric readily agreed, threw down his food, couldn''t wait to go to the middle of the long hall and read it in public with a serious expression.
The effect is surprisingly good!
Before he finished reading it, the feudal ministers had already looked forward with laughter. After that, the "Dong Dong" sound of the collision between the wine cup and the wooden table continued, and it was as if it were a harvest banquet.
"Stop, stop!" roared Sir Cedric, with a horse face. "This is a declaration of war, this is a very serious thing, a deadly thing! Fear, the fear you should show!"
"Ha ha ha!"
"Cedric, stop talking. I''m scared to hide under the table! I won''t be able to sleep!"
"It''s terrible. If he suddenly cries, how can I coax him? Say baby doesn''t cry!"
"Don''t quarrel, don''t quarrel, the most terrible thing is still behind! Cedric, read it quickly!"
The crowd laughed and asked him to continue reading.
"Everybody," Cedric said solemnly, "please make sure your buttocks are firmly seated in the chair, or you will be scared to sit on the ground. There is no nanny to comfort you!"
After that, he cleared his throat, straightened his chest and back, and read aloud with a letter paper: "... Although Lingfeng Castle doesn''t want to fight, it doesn''t want to fight, but for security reasons, it will have to send troops to Xiangguo town to fight back. Don''t say nothing! Everyone, don''t say nothing! Ha ha ha!"
After reading, everyone''s laughter almost overturned the roof of the long hall!
"I''m so scared. I think of my mother. I''ll jump into her arms and tell him someone is going to bully me!"
"I''ve pouted my butt. I hope he can kill me when he gets angry!"
"What to do? Our enemy is angry. I tremble at the thought of his pouted little mouth!"
……
As Mr. Boye expected, Arthur''s statement not only failed to serve as a warning, but made the enemies happy.
The old Sir Andrey Robey shook his head with a wry smile, looked sideways at Ted Barrett beside him and said, "Sir, you don''t need to call so many people for such a ridiculous guy. It''s to add glory to his defeat."
In order to welcome Ted Barrett and his vassals, sir Andrey Robey killed ten sheep and ten pigs and took out the best wine in the farm.
Looking at the old vassal, Ted Barrett smiled and said, "if he is not ridiculous, he will not provoke us ignorant. Moreover, if it were not for his statement, wouldn''t the taste of the delicious food on the table be greatly reduced?"
The old jazz hung his head, thought a little and then said, "but with so many people, I''m afraid the cost of the war is huge. After all, Lingfeng castle is far north."
"Don''t worry, old Robert. We''ll only earn ten times this war. There''s an iron mine on the river." looking at the loose face of the old FengChen, Ted Barrett thought and said, "you''re old and I''m afraid you can''t be competent for the long-distance bumps. Let one of your sons go north with me. You wait for the news of victory."
Sir Andrey Robey nodded in a slow, faltering tone: "Thank you for your understanding. I''m really a little old. I lost another tooth half a month ago. But don''t worry, Olivier will be the bravest Knight under your command. Our soldiers of the robe family will also be your most proud horse. I''ll stay here every day, prepare pigs and sheep, and wait for your triumph. There will be a better story."
Ted Barrett looked up at Olivier Robert standing on the side. The other party was about twenty-five or six years old, tall, thin and handsome. He bowed his head respectfully in front of his eyes.
Taking back his eyes, Ted Barrett nodded to the old vassal and said, "this is your little son with the title of divine archer. He is a good boy. I see."
"More adults! I will guard the avenue every day and wait for your triumph."
……
Just when Ted Barrett and others were lively and happy, Arthur and others who flew all the way south from lingfengbao have reached the wetland at the junction of Cumbria and andoria.
At the moment, half of the knights who followed him were less than 70, and the other half had left the team and rushed to Xiangguo town as early as yesterday morning.
"Rest here tonight!" Arthur stopped his horse on a mound, looked at the people and said, "there is a ghost faced eagle to guard. Although the conditions are worse, don''t worry that the beast won''t get cold. Have a good sleep and continue to drive tomorrow."
