In recent days, the whole Fengxi city has a lively and jubilant atmosphere.
First, pace led the serfs to clean up the dung in the city, build public toilets, and formulate the rules for transporting the filth every morning. Then, the mighty cavalry entered the city, and the farit family scattered a lot of coins. Then there was a two-day martial arts competition. The cavalry fought with horses, and everyone was excited between life and death. Finally, today, After the wedding ceremony between Miss Jenny of the farit family in the West and the Duke''s son pace kewilt, she will take a carriage to visit the whole city.
However, just as the civilians stood along the street, waiting for the tour carriage to pass and compete for the gold coins thrown, a war that will shock everyone in andoria County in the north is slowly beginning!
……
Arthur never dreamed that Lord Ted Barrett, marquis, was so considerate!
He thought that the other party would withdraw troops and return aid, and that he might divide his troops in two places to continue to attack Xiangguo town. At the same time, he assigned some people to pursue him. He even thought that the other party might gather the people left behind in the leader''s land to prevent him from damaging everywhere.
But he never thought that the enemy''s return was return, but the feudal ministers actually led the troops back to their families first and divided the return troops into four!
After learning this, Arthur couldn''t believe it. He thought Da Fei and Xiong Fei had forgotten how to count.
……
Probably in the eyes of Ted Barrett and his vassals, the cavalry he led was not an army at all: the number was small, there was no supply, and he was alone. As long as two or three hundred cavalry could wipe him out. Fear is not enough.
Of course, it''s not all their fault.
In anyone''s eyes, his action is absolutely crazy! It is a fatal act to force the enemy to withdraw, regardless of their own safety. As long as troops are sent to block his retreat, he will become a turtle in a jar.
But the problem is that Arthur himself doesn''t think so at all... As an enemy, he even wants to send a banner of "sacrifice himself for others" to Ted Barrett.
His original strategy was to force them to withdraw their troops and take the opportunity of making trouble in andoria county to win time for reform and development for Shanghe collar and Cumbria.
But now, the four scattered Knight teams immediately let him see a good opportunity to hit the Barrett family!
Therefore, he immediately changed his battle plan, gave up going to the farms of other vassals, returned the same way, took the initiative to attack, and tried to wipe out the scattered reinforcements of the enemy one by one.
Nelson family territory.
Arthur led the Knights of the castle through the noisy river bank. Not far from the road, there is a village along the river called "hajid" with a population of less than 300.
Three days ago in the evening, Arthur, who received the news from bank, was resting with the knights in this village.
At the beginning, he didn''t expect that the enemy''s troops would disperse. He thought these guys would chase him as fast as possible. Therefore, the day after receiving the news from bank, that is, yesterday, he led the troops to the Nelson family''s manor. After a fire burned all the property in the Manor, he continued to lead the troops South and planned to take advantage of the speed of light riding, Leave the pursued enemy far behind.
But just yesterday afternoon, when he asked Xiong Fei to investigate the enemy''s situation, he found that only a small group of people were left to the south.
Realizing that the situation had changed, Arthur immediately sent Dafei and Xiong Fei out. After some investigation, he was shocked to find that the vassals had divided troops along the way and returned to their respective territories first with men and horses!
This
Therefore, early this morning, Arthur, who was supposed to kill and set fire to the vimos family, immediately led the troops back.
The enemy sends people thousands of miles away. The ceremony is more important and the affection is more important. Of course, he should take the initiative to "greet" them!
Hakid village.
As soon as Arthur led the soldiers into the village, the villagers immediately gathered in front of the team.
Looking at Arthur on horseback, a middle-aged man in a black coarse linen coat was full of joy: "Sir, do you want to rest with us today? I''ll let you prepare food immediately!"
Three days ago in the afternoon, when Arthur led the soldiers to enter here, the women and children hid behind the dark door and looked out. The men were also full of fear and thought there was some bad luck coming.
Later, with Arthur''s explanation, the women slowly walked out of the house and prepared food for them. Arthur and others really only stayed for one night. When they left the next day, they paid everyone a lot of money.
Therefore, seeing Arthur and others coming back, the villagers immediately welcomed them out and waited for Arthur''s orders. You know, Arthur paid more than they paid the merchant ten times!
Throwing out a bag of gold coins, Arthur said directly, "the more food and forage, the better."
……
While Arthur and others were resting for dinner, sir Meru Pacheco was leading nearly 200 knights and more than 40 serfs to leave the ruined manor in the northeast.
Yesterday evening, when he led the troops to the farm and saw the burnt down manor, his anger and hatred made him want to peel Arthur alive immediately!
Nothing.
Except for a small amount of food, all the properties in the farm were burned, even the livestock were killed, and Arthur tustra didn''t leave him a complete carriage! His wife and children were all dirty and smelly. They slept in a straw hut supported by wooden sticks in rags. They looked like beggars and refugees.
When he calmed his family, he immediately sent a knight to collect the horses and carriages of all the farmers around.
After a night''s rest, he left ten knights and asked them to organize serfs to rebuild their houses. Then he pulled out more than 40 young serfs, drove a carriage and left the farm with a small amount of food to avenge Arthur!
It takes only three or four hours to gallop from the Pacheco family''s manor to hachild village, but it takes at least half a day to bring carriages and serfs.
Therefore, even if he knew that the enemy was killing him, Arthur didn''t care. While discussing the battle plan with Bogu and others, he slowly ate the roast fish and soybean soup prepared by the villagers.
After eating the food, he ordered all the villagers to gather, and then gave each of them a gold coin from the looting. He told them that the village was requisitioned tonight and asked them to take their belongings and hide in the house at the end of the village. Whoever dares to come out without authorization will die!
The sudden change frightened all the villagers, but looking at the golden gold coins in their hands, seeing that Arthur didn''t force them to fight, they nodded one by one. They ran home, dug out the money cans and hid in more than a dozen rooms at the end of the village.
