Release that Witch

201. Chapter 201 returns to stronghold

    Considering the role of the pill, Roland did not order the First Army to pursue the first time, but sent Lightning and Macy to monitor the other’s situation.

    The wounded soldiers on the line were immediately rescued. The whole battle came down. Only five people were wounded and they were all hit by spears. Four of them came from the artillery team. What is gratifying to him is that the enemy’s throwing spear, which is approaching a distance of 150 meters, did not let the artillery smashed, but lowered the body, used the gun to avoid the spear, and re-in the shortest time. Put into combat.

    Nana stayed behind the line of defense, especially when the enemy turned around and fled, despite the rumble of gunfire, she took the Tigu Viscount to the artillery position to treat the wounded who were stabbed by the spear. It’s hard to imagine that she was still a dizzy little girl six months ago.

    In the end, five people have survived. In the cheers, many soldiers gave her a military salute and watched her leave the battlefield.

    In fact, this battle is much easier than dealing with the Duke coalition. Without the drugs, the militia in the addicted state is extremely unbearable. Some people even ran two or three kilometers and then lie down on the ground, no longer willing to move. .

    The chasing troops quickly gathered them all together and rushed to Longsong Stronghold. During this period, First Army also captured two Knights. Although they did not swallow the pills, they had lost the idea of ​​rebellion. In the face of the approaching pursuit, they simply chose to surrender and asked to write to the family to obtain The opportunity to redeem.

    Arriving at Longsong Stronghold is after four days.

    According to the intelligence of the interrogation of Knight’s surrender, Nightingale easily disintegrated the troops of the staying stronghold castle. Captain was shot on the spot, and more than a hundred militia stunned the birds and beasts, and then fell into the ambush circle set by the First Army at the gate.

    Roland’s men found the imprisoned Petrov in the castle dungeon. He looked awkward, probably worried and anxious, but given the noble status of Count Honeysuckle, he did not suffer any inhuman treatment.

    After nearly three months, the prince saw the agent again.

    “His Royal Highness, it’s great to see you,” Petrov’s uneasy feeling finally relaxed. He said everything he had experienced in For several days. “I don’t know Timothy’s envoy…”

    “It’s all dead,” Roland leaned back in his chair. “In addition, the 1,500 people they brought, more than half of them died at the small town border, and the rest are currently in the stronghold prison.”

    Petrov looked a little surprised when he heard the news that the envoy group had been completely destroyed. “His Royal Highness, if you do this, I am afraid that new King…No, your brother will treat you as a nail. ”

    “So I should be shackled and return to Kingdom Capital, let him be at the mercy?”Roland’s eyes look directly at each other.

    The latter involuntarily lowered his head. “No, Your Highness…”

    “From the moment he sent the troops to the Western Region’s, it was already my enemy,” the prince said quietly. “Timothy Wimbledon will only become more and more urgent in order to seize power. He urgently needs land and knights to give support.” His noble. If you only want to enjoy, why should you manage this stronghold for me? You should be very clear that only when I become a King of Greycastle, you can stabilize in the Western Region’s position. ”He paused and went on to say, “In order to prevent such a situation from happening again, I need to form an army to defend the stronghold.”

    troopsPetrov stunned.

    “Yes, not Knight, but an army of civilians, full-time combat.”Roland slowly stated his intentions. “You pick a team of 300 people from stronghold and train my men to fight.” The requirements of these three hundred people are: they must be civilians, have not committed crimes, are not believers of Church, between the ages of 16 and 30, and have no physical disabilities. During the training, they will live in Border Town, and the weapon is also provided by me. Your Knight and patrol will only be responsible for city policing in the future, and more details will be written on it,” he handed the other to a piece of parchment. “You can post announcements for recruitment and screening.” ”

    If you want to control the city defense in your own hands, it is obviously the best way to station an army of your own. But the number of First Army is too small, and defending Border Town is not enough, let alone the division of Longsong Stronghold. So letting the other person provide the manpower and training himself is a compromise.

    Nightingale’s polygraph ability can guarantee the team’s purity. The new army’s training methods and ideological education can make this group quickly form Battle strength. It is equipped with a weapon for the front-end rifle that will be eliminated. Even if it is captured by the enemy, the problem is not Big. In addition, this army can also shoulder the task of information and intelligence transmission, as long as someone tries to attack stronghold, Roland can get the news in the first time.

    I understandPetrov nodded.

    “The person you screened out, I will review it, don’t try to put a line of eyeliner into the team. This is meaningless.”Roland warned, “The spies you sent before have now entered the mine. If something similar happens again…”

    “No, Your Highness,” the other wiped the sweat on his forehead. “I promise not.”

    “Then is Church,” the prince leaned back into the chair with satisfaction. “You probably don’t know, the stronghold cathedral was set on fire by Timothy’s men, and Taylor High Priest was killed by them. There is only one ruin left.”

    “They actually burned the church?”Petrov was shocked by the news, “This…I have to report to Hermes. ”

    Church Law stipulates that King and feudal lord are obliged to protect the local Church facility from infringement and, if it is unable to stop it, report the message to Holy City immediately. For the former ambassador who is proficient in the law, it is a normal reaction, and this kind of thing can not be concealed. I am afraid that the strong day of the sinister actress sent the secret letter to Holy City.

    “It’s true that the report should be reported, but the content of the letter needs to be properly adjusted,” Roland said, “you only use the letter to indicate that the attacker was a force of Timothy Wimbledon who left Longsong Stronghold shortly after looting and burning the church. I don’t know where to go. In addition, you attached this thing with the letter,” he took a pill from his pocket and handed it to Petrov. “It is said that it is something from the church near, and they will naturally understand.” ”

    This is……What?

    “Church’s secret drug is also the target of Timothy. It allows ordinary people to explode the power of Exceptional in a short period of time, but after the drug subsides, the user will slowly fail and die,” Roland explained briefly. “Timothy wants to strengthen the army with this drug and stabilize his precarious The throne. When Church saw the pill, he naturally understood his intentions. ”

    As for whether or not to take measures, that is another matter.

    “Follow, Your Highness.”Petrov will pay for the meatballs.
