Knight of the Light

Thick fog town, the weather is bad today, and the clouds are dark.

After a day of fighting, Bishop's thousands of steps successfully defeated the remnants of the Lehman and Minoan families stubborn here. A large number of enemy personnel surrendered, and family backbones scattered and fled.

"They can't escape."

Bishop rode on a tall horse and wore a golden helmet with a big bag. He raised the whip and pointed at several defeated people who had fled into the distance. "Send a team to chase them back."

Ha ha ha ..., relaxed laughter sounded around the baron. The young and strong elites of Banshee Castle are all beside him. Several young knights fought bravely and took the initiative to kill by horseback.

"Today" Uncle Zhou didn't come to die, everyone's mood is pretty good.

After taking the dense fog town, you can use it as a base to scour all the villages and towns within a dozen kilometers. This robbery alone can make a lot of nobles and civilians participating in the war.

So the flattering words around the baron are like waves of praise and praise.

Everyone searched the stomach and complimented His Excellency Bishop, who commanded well, with unparalleled fighting power, and was the first general in the North. This time it was definitely easy to win the Cold Wind City.

Hundreds of dead bodies fell on the battlefield just after the war. The civilians that constitute the main force of the infantry are sweeping the battlefield in groups, gathering the captives and anything of value.

The infantry of Banshee Castle has no pay. They brought their own weapons to the war, and all their proceeds depended on looting and seizure. The noble lords provided them with the food and grass they needed to fight, and only gave them before the war.

For nobles, letting soldiers live for plunder is an important means to ensure their desire and morale to participate in the war. This cost less, and you can get enough soldiers.

As for soldiers like bandits, that's not a problem at all.

A civilian infantry picked up a dozen discarded spears and passed by with a smile. The baron yelled, "Soldier, come here. Let me see what you got?"

The civilians approached respectfully and placed the picked spear on the ground. Several knight masters rode around behind him to ensure that he would not break the honorable baron.

Bishop was also in a good mood. He dismounted and grabbed a spear and put it in his hand. He looked at it from afar and felt that the quality of these spears was good. After he picked them up, he found that the spears were very important and well-built.

The spear is one of the best cost-effective weapons in the cold weapon era.

Cheap and easy to use, simple training and wide range of adaptation. Some knights like to sprint with a spear, which is more powerful than a cavalry knife, but training is too difficult.

But the lances seized on the battlefield are obviously unusual. The gun head is made of wrought iron, which is tough and sharp, and can easily break the armor. The gun barrel is polished with a woodworking lathe. The length and thickness are the same, and the grip is very smooth.

"The cold wind city rebellious weapons used by the infantry are pretty good." Bi Xiaopu was accustomed to using differently shaped weapons under his hands, but the dozens of spears in front of him were exactly the same.

The baron took a gold coin from his pocket and threw it to the civilian infantry who was kneeling on his knees. "I bought these spears and I will pick them up. I can equip a separate unit."

The civilian infantry picked up the gold coins from the ground and replied happily: "Your Excellency, there are many such spears, and many people have picked them up. At least a few thousand. The iron material of this spearhead is good, and it is definitely suitable to build agricultural tools and knives.

Bishop frowned, thinking that such a good spear would be too wasteful to build agricultural tools and knives. There are thousands of them too exaggerated.

How many years must this be built? No matter how strong the blacksmith is, he will be exhausted.

An old carriage is driving away from the battlefield, with at least hundreds of rifles piled up on the frame. Most of them are brand new and have never been used. They have only been thrown into the soil once.

A group of captives passed by with their heads down. Each person's hands are tied and a rope is tied around his neck. A knight took the rope and controlled dozens of people without difficulty.

The baron shouted again, asking about the origin of the spear, and the information he received surprised him-before turning his face, the Lehman and Minos families spent a lot of money buying Hugo from Hugo.

There are not only spears, but also arrows, shields, long swords and the like. If you are willing to pay, even the plate armor. The price is still very cheap. For example, a lance costs only one-third of the ‘normal’ price.

Even the nobles who are not able to communicate can hear their hairs when they hear that Hugo in Hanfengcheng has delivered thousands of high-quality spears in less than six months.

Not to mention that this is only a small part of the other party ’s products. Previously, the "Fu Qiang Ling" fist products were fine iron and wood processing. What are the thousands of spears?

In the past six months, the baron had heard various anecdotes about Cold Wind City's "rich and powerful leader". But today I actually have some experience on the battlefield, and my feelings are different.

"Hugo can sell so much equipment to others, he should have more of it himself. Next we are afraid of some troubles in siege."

Bishop was still thinking about leading the army into the cold wind city. The infantry built the siege equipment to take the city gate, and then rely on the hundreds of knights and the attached wizard to establish the victory.

At present, it seems that the opponent is at least not short of equipment.

"If Hugo forces the residents of the city to resist, it can also cause us some trouble."

The baron was far-sighted, wondering if he should speed up the march, and rushed to the enemy city early, lest his opponent be too prepared.

But this idea has not yet formed, and a herald soldier came from afar to send a piece of bad news, "His Lord Baron, the grain transport team did not come today. We sent someone to ask because it was stored in Shitan Town The food was burned. "

What ..., you say it again?

The problem of grain and grass is a big one. The food brought by thousands of people cannot last for two days and must be continuously supplied. The baron had just wanted to gather the troops and went straight into the cold wind city, but the food was burned.

If the rear supply is not available, thousands of steps of riding will have to solve the food problem by yourself. And they can't get together, the brigade must be dispersed to get enough food.

Bishop would not be able to go there at that time, but could only stay in Thick Fog Town and let his men go to the surroundings to grab food supplies. He must also move fast, otherwise, once the food is cut off, believe it or not, thousands of civilian infantry immediately mutiny.

"Have you reported this to the Lord of the City?"

"I've already sent someone. I'll probably get a reply tomorrow."

The current situation is unclear, and any of Bishop's ideas cannot be a decision. He couldn't figure out who would burn the granary just under ten kilometers away from Banshee under his eyelids?

The nobles in Banshee Castle were stunned with extreme anger.

Is it the wilderness bandits? When did they become so bold? Dare to attack the granary when the army was dispatched.

Some people even think that the grain transport officer is guarding against theft, deliberately forging bandits to attack, burning down the granary, so as to prevent certain crimes from being exposed-this is more likely than an enemy attack.

No one thought of Victor at all. Hugo didn't honestly stay dead in Cold Wind City, and ran so far to make trouble.

For a time, on the tens of kilometers of roads from dense fog town to Shitan town to Banshee Fort, the herding soldiers ran back and forth. Wizards with flying pets come in handy, and various birds fly back and forth.

The joy of victory just now was dimmed by the haze. After waiting for a day after the war, Bishop obtained two useful information.

First, the Lord of the City learned that the granary had been burned, and had sent people to investigate, and at the same time sent a hundred horse-drawn carriages to Nongwu Town for emergency grain transportation.

Second, the grain convoy was attacked halfway through the day. The enemy pinched his head to the end, and even the carts, horses, and grain were destroyed.

This is terrible!
