Reborn as a werewolf ancestor
Chapter 139 Letter from the Barony of Burkitt
In the morning, the wind is sunny and sunny.
The Ringgit leader was still as calm and peaceful as ever, with nothing happening.
The breeze blew across the plains in the distance, bringing with it a wave of green.
It was at this moment that a fast horse appeared in the plain. He crossed the forest, crossed the plain, and drove in the direction of Eagle Castle.
After an unknown amount of time, the fast horse finally arrived in front of the city gate.
The guards stationed here were very competent and did not immediately let him go because of their anxious appearance.
Instead, they stopped him and after confirming his identity, they opened the city gate.
After a lot of twists and turns, an urgent letter was delivered to the owner of the castle, Baron Kane.
Looking at the letter in the hands of the butler Jace, Kane frowned because the fire seal on the letter was the family logo of a nobleman from around his territory.
Immediately, Kane took out his letter opener, opened the letter, and read it carefully. During this process, his frown never relaxed.
After putting down the letter, he turned to the housekeeper Jess and ordered: "Quickly call Sitz, Catherine, and Marcus."
"As you command, my lord."
Jess also understood the importance of the matter and hurriedly turned around and left to carry out the task.
Kane was left alone, sitting at the table with a serious expression, wondering what he was thinking.
Soon, the door was knocked again, and there was a sound of "dong, dong, dong".
Kane knew that it was Catherine and the others who had arrived, and he immediately said to the door: "Come in."
After receiving Kane's response, several people poured into the study.
They first bowed to Kane, and then stood next to Kane, waiting for his words.
"Just now, I received a letter from Baron Burkitt," Kane said.
Catherine asked: "My lord, what is the content of the letter?"
"Their scouts detected a large army approaching from the west of the territory in the early morning. The lord, Baron Burkitt, recognized the flag above the army as the symbol of Manvilla."
"Therefore, he hurriedly sent a messenger to ask for help from nearby allies such as me. At the same time, he also sent another team of messengers to rush to deliver the letter to Viscount Muchat and Count Sardis."
After Kane finished speaking, everyone lowered their heads and began to think deeply.
"Unexpectedly, this Manvilla actually changed his strategy and instead of attacking us first, he went to attack the surrounding territories." Catherine said.
Marcus on the side understood the other party's intentions and explained to Catherine: "That's natural. Since the last battle, we completely defeated their army, and the other party needs to reconsider our strength."
"Compared to our territory, which has a relatively strong military force, aren't the few surrounding baronies with sparse troops better targets to attack?
"Besides, as long as all these territories are captured, we may not be able to swallow this difficult bone of ours. The opponent's strategy can be said to achieve the greatest results with the smallest effort."
"At that time, if our territory is completely isolated from the transportation team and surrounding allies, we will be in a state of isolation and helplessness. It will not be easy to capture us."
After Marcus' explanation, Catherine finally understood the other party's strategy.
"That's it." She sighed.
Kane fully unfolded the map, showing the location of the Burkitt Barony, which was more than 60 kilometers away from his Regit Territory.
Even if all the members were cavalry, it would take nearly half a day to reach the opponent's territory by running quickly.
Looking at the subordinates in front of him, Kane asked: "What do you think?"
Catherine thought for a moment and said: "My lord, I think we should send troops."
"My subordinates and Sergeant Catherine have the same opinion, but I don't think we can completely bring out the troops in the city." Marcus said at the side.
Sitz also said: "I agree with Knight Marcus's opinion. At the same time, it might be better if we can negotiate with the other lords who have received the letter."
Kane nodded with satisfaction and said to a few people: "Very good, your opinions are basically the same as mine. If we cannot send troops to rescue in time, the other party will definitely capture the city and establish an advantage. This is very important to us.
Unfavorable.”
"I will accept Marcus' suggestion. The territory cannot lack soldiers to protect it. No one knows whether Manvilla will suddenly make a move to attack the east or the west."
With that said, Kane looked at Sitz again and said: "Your proposal also has merit, but the current situation is urgent and we have no extra time to contact other nobles."
"I understand, sir." Sitz said with understanding.
"Very good, next is the dispatch of troops. The troops must be dispatched. I can't guarantee that they can still perform their duties after I leave." Kane continued.
"Understood, my lord, I will arrange a group of soldiers to replace the patrol mission of the surrendered soldiers." Catherine said.
"Furthermore, we need to take away 45 soldiers, cavalry names, and we will have to trouble Marcus and Catherine in terms of organization. The two of you will make arrangements. The patrol tasks can only be temporarily shared among the remaining people."
"Yes, sir." they replied.
"In addition, this battle requires leading some new recruits to go out for training. At least 0 new recruits will be needed. Then we will cooperate with the veterans to lead the operation."
"This coincides with my subordinate's thoughts." Catherine agreed.
"Well, that's all for now. I'll give you a morning to prepare. We'll gather at the main entrance at noon." Kane finally gave instructions to a few people.
"Yes, sir." Several people saluted Kane again, then left the study and went to complete various preparation tasks.
.........
Following Kane's order, the whole castle suddenly became busy. The chefs began to prepare the rations that the supporting army would eat in the next few days, while the servants were packing some tents and quilts for use in the field.
In the military camp, all the soldiers had been gathered together by Catherine, and they began to select who could go to the battle and who would stay to guard the castle.
Naturally, Derris would not miss such an opportunity to surrender the leader. After all, the goal he set for himself was to gain a lot of military exploits and gain Kane's attention.
Therefore, he immediately proposed to Catherine that all members of their surrender team would be willing to go to the battlefield to serve their crimes, even the lords who had been loyal to them in the past.
Unexpectedly, Catherine smiled and said to him that Lord Kane had already included their team among those who needed to participate in the battle.
This situation made Driss very excited. He didn't expect Lord Kane to be so concerned about himself and others earlier, and considered them to be indispensable combat forces in the army.
Otherwise, why do they have to follow them to the battlefield?
In this way, in Derris' reverie, Catherine screened all the soldiers and arranged the patrol missions for the next few days. (To be continued)
