Chapter 353

    For Cedric basaya and other vassals, the last few days have been a time of suffering and humiliation.


    Arthur tustra led dozens of people and horses and severely humiliated them.


    That night, when he was full of wine and food, he hugged the girl recruited from the town and fell comfortably on his bed. His bare warm body was lying between his legs, serving him hard and trying to make him vigorous - they drank a lot of wine from the river collar. When they were drunk, the work was as soft as their body.


    However, just as he was about to mount the horse with his gun, the real horse suddenly rushed into the tent! The damned beast bumped around madly, with a flame burning on his tail. The woman screamed with fear. He became rigid, and the work was paralyzed in an instant.


    Fire! Fire! He heard someone shouting outside the tent, and then immediately there was a chaos mixed with all kinds of noise. He immediately put on a linen gown and rushed out of the tent. The attendant Knight hurried forward without opening his mouth. He had seen the blazing fire in the south.


    But the knight told him that the situation was still worse than he thought.


    "Sir, an enemy attacked the guard and set fire to all the food and grass!"


    enemy?!


    He thought some careless serf had caused trouble and was going to hang him. Unexpectedly, it was the enemy! He was drunk and woke up most of the time. He immediately asked about the situation and was ready to call people, but unfortunately, the rats who attacked at night had fled into the dark. Helpless, he had to organize serfs to fetch water and put out the fire together with the other feudal ministers. But those burning flames can''t be put out at all!


    "It''s black fire oil!" said Dolph, the neighbor of the fief. In this way, they watched the grain and grass turn to ashes.


    Cedric knows they''re in big trouble!


    The burned grain and grass is enough for them to spend another half a month. According to the plan, they should have invaded the Cambrian territory now, so they were not prepared to transport food from the territory from the beginning.


    However, there are still remedies. The remaining food can barely support the transportation of food from the territory of several nearby vassals. In the future, the food and grass in their territory will also arrive, enough to survive the crisis of food and grass burning.


    But the real trouble is far beyond their imagination. The bastards of Lingfeng castle are not just to burn their food and grass.


    In the next few days, the bad news came one after another. First, the Robert family''s farm was destroyed, followed by the Menger family, the anbit family, the beech family and the Roman family!


    After crossing the river, the people and horses of Lingfeng castle are still unscrupulous and unimpeded. The feudal ministers'' farms are as fragile as paper paste. More than a thousand Knights led by the Marquis not only haven''t seen each other''s figures so far, but also lost hundreds of people and horses because they stationed in various farms!


    Until today, new news came, and the Marquis ordered them to retreat immediately and wait until Menge town. This is probably the only good news since the war. The food shortage army was terrified, and the serfs received only half of their food yesterday.


    But after retreating, the letter asked them to leave almost all their horses - it was intended to surrender to the enemy on the city wall!


    Fortunately, the Marquis sent two letters. In addition to the evacuation arrangements, he also told them that these war horses were only temporarily kept by the enemy. When Arthur tustra was killed, they would belong to them again sooner or later.


    The vassals were all silent. They didn''t expect that the war would be so difficult that they had to kill their opponents through peace talks. This is a means to equate victory with meanness and shame!


    But what else can we do... Admit defeat or give up the war?


    No one will agree to such a decision!


    No matter how humiliating it will be to admit defeat, now half of the vassal farms have been destroyed and suffered huge losses. Once the armistice is over, they will get nothing! Only when the war continues, can they have the opportunity to make up for the huge losses brought by Lingfeng castle!


    Finally, Cedric agreed to stay the war horse, pretended to surrender and withdraw troops, and the other vassals nodded one after another.


    In this way, like losers, they sent their horses under the enemy''s wall, and then led the troops away in dismay amid the loud trumpets and cheers of the other party.


    ……


    Milt glowed with excitement on the wall.


    Retreat! The bastards of the Barrett family finally withdrew!


    "Blow! Blow hard!" he shouted excitedly to the soldiers aside. "Let all these bastards hear the sound of our horn! Ha ha, it''s great. Louder the cheers, this is our victory! We defeated the Barrett family! Defeated these invading bastards!"


    Bank stood aside and looked at the distant enemy. Although he knew that the war was not over, he did not stop the happy milt. This scene should meet Lord Arthur''s requirements.


    "Lord bank!" milt came forward, glanced at the war horses under his eyes, and asked excitedly, "when will we bring these horses back? They are all war horses!"


    Looking at him, bank smiled and said, "Lord milt, Lord Arthur said, all the dismounted horses will be given to you, which can be regarded as the war compensation of the Barrett family for you."


    "All!?" milt''s heart beat faster when he heard the speech. At a glance, there are at least four or five hundred war horses below!


    "No, no, no, I just... Only half!" milt said sincerely after a slight hesitation, "All the rest will be sent to Shanghe collar! I know that if it weren''t for Lord Arthur and you, I wouldn''t be able to keep here! Lord Arthur''s kindness will always be remembered by milt! Lord bank, please believe that under my rule, Cumbria collar and Shanghe collar will be closer than when they were allied! I, milt campes, will always follow ya Lord Arthur! "


    Looking at milt, bank smiled with pride in his heart and said: "Lord milt, these horses can help you quickly build a cavalry. That''s what Lord Arthur means. You don''t have to refuse, and Cumbria deserves it. The war is not over yet. As for what you just said, time will prove everything, and Arthur will see it."


    For a moment, milt was moved to tears.


    "I will, I will, and I will live up to Lord Arthur''s expectations!" he has never been treated so fairly in his life. He lived in campsburg as a child, and even his servants ignored him.


    He resented his illegitimate son''s identity, which was clearly the fault of his "father''s love" libron campes, but the other party regarded him as his own shame; he resented telosi. The woman always raised her chin proudly and looked down at him like looking at a bedbug; he hated Eric even more. The damn guy was a wild seed!


    ……


    Until late the next night, the army of the Barrett family retreated to Bedouin town. Arthur quietly returned with his men and horses. The war horses outside the great wall were led into the fortress together with the horses captured by Arthur.


    Arthur and others did not stop. After telling bank and milt, they led the men and horses and followed the Palit army retreating south.


    At the same time, the news that he, milt and Ted Barrett, the three parties asked the Duke to witness the peace talks, also flew to Fengxi Castle further south with the wings of the letter bird.
