Rise of the Lord of Mount and Blade

“Sincerely, Wallis Leonard, Earl of Latakia:

Of course I will join you in this war! Our enemies should Learn to stand in awe of Mein’s army and let them shiver coldly under the deterrence of Mein’s army!

Signature, Earl of Mein, Richard Vareen.”

“ha ha ha ha! Richard, really worthy of my ally! ha ha ha ha —”

The battle front between the leader of Latakia and the leader of Jancourt, the hearty earl of Wallis Leonard Laughter filled the camp, and this was the first news that made him happy since Count Jancourt declared war on him next door!

Several Knights in armor in the camp watched each other. After the earl stopped laughing, one of them asked: “My lord, did Lord Mein agree to send troops to the war? “

Earl Leonard glanced at the talking Knight, and replied with joy: “Yes, Alva, he agreed to send troops.”

Several Knights confronted each other again. After a glance, the Knight continued to ask: “My lord, when will Earl Mein dispatch troops, and how many soldiers will he dispatch?”

“Richard said in the letter that he will be directly from half a month. Mein led an attack on Tretto’s messy territory. The only thing we need to do is to withstand the enemy’s attack before they send troops.”

“But…” Another Knight took a step forward. , Said: “My lord, we can stand in stalemate with the army led by Jankul, but we cannot divide our forces to fight against the army led by Erekal, in case the army led by Erekal strikes Lata within this half a month. Kea City, what should we do?”

“I have ordered Tolvey Mendes, Viscount Roton, to lead an army to intercept the army led by Erika. This war is mainly between us and the special For Leto’s miscellaneous contradictions, Count Erika has no reason to do his best to help him, so I think Viscount Mendes should be able to stop the army led by Erika.”

He tone barely fell, Suddenly a long horn sounded outside the camp, Earl Leonard complexion changed, folded the letter, and then took the Knights out. He was very familiar with this kind of horn sound, which represented the leader of Jancourt. The army attacked again.

……

Richard didn’t know what happened to Earl Leonard. After asking Jacob to write a reply to the war, Richard ordered Cassia to prepare for the expedition. In this war, he is not going to call in conscripts to participate in the war, but is going to use only the standing army, so he only needs to prepare the food and grass after the expedition to dispatch directly.

This war is not just a simple training. Although war is the best training ground, most of the recruits in the army have only received short-term military training. It is wishful thinking to expect them to play a role in the battle.

Therefore, the main pillars of the war are the veterans of the cavalry and cutting arms and Valantia. In order to avoid large-scale casualties of the recruits, Richard dare not let them be deployed on the front line. Transformation and sublimation in the fire.

Before sending the troops, Richard also set another goal. Because this time the troops were sent in response to his ally Summon, he would not gain any benefit after the war, so he was preparing to attack the Yankul leader. After that, let the soldiers indulge, grab more spoils of war and come back. It is best to take some people away.

The night before the dispatch of troops, Teresa blocked Richard in the study room. Richard was about to leave home soon after the wedding, which made her feel very reluctant and worried that Richard would be injured in the war. Looking at Teresa’s worried look, Richard was helpless and moved, and immediately assured her that he would return unscathed and triumphantly.

I don’t know how many flags this is set. Richard is confident. He doesn’t think he will be defeated. He has gone through several battles. How could he overturn in an earl-level war?

……

2nd day, with the farewell of Teresa and the cabinet ministers, Richard took the guard to the hill barracks with Cassia and led the assembled army on an expedition.

Because the Minn collar and the Yankul collar are bordered, he can directly lead the army to break through the border and forcibly enter the Yankul collar. According to the intelligence of Earl Leonard, Yang In order to defeat him, Count Dia Treto had already left Fiefdom with the main force, so Richard did not have to worry about encountering stubborn resistance.

And this is indeed the case. When Richard’s army appeared on the border of Jancourt, the small number of troops deployed by the Earl of Treto in advance were directly scared and fled and quickly sent the news. To the lord who is still on the front line, but when Treto received the news, Richard’s army had already arrived in the town of Viscount Palmer, his acquaintance.

It’s also a coincidence that the Fiefdom of Viscount Palmer is blocking the main city of Count Treto. If Richard wants to conquer there, he must first take the territory of Viscount Palmer.

Looking at the black army outside the city, the mayor staying in the town looks like earthy face. His lord Viscount Palmer has already joined the Earl’s army with conscripts to the front line. Now there are only With a small number of guards and temporary militiamen, it is almost as difficult as heavenly ascension to defend the town.

Therefore, in the face of tremendous pressure, the mayor wisely chose to surrender. He ordered the soldiers to lay down their weapons and voluntarily open the walls to welcome Richard into the city. Faced with this voluntarily surrendered town, Richard just let them Pay a fee and leave with the army.

Richard wanted to directly take down the regional capital of Jancourt, capture the earl’s family alive by the way, force Treto to surrender and then blackmail a ransom, but he did not expect that the army had just come to the city. I received bad news from Earl Leonard–

Viscount Rowton was defeated and died in the rebellion, and the army led by Erreka went straight to Latakia City without any obstacles. On the march, Earl Leonard had to withdraw his troops and back to the rescue. Without their restraint, Earl Treto also took the army with him tacitly and rushed towards Richard’s direction.

After learning this news, Richard can only sigh that he is not afraid of opponents like gods but teammates like pigs. He just prepared to order the building of siege equipment to siege the city. Now the main force of Lord Jankul is back. He had to give up the siege and avoid its edge.

The reason for avoiding the edge instead of turning around to fight is mainly due to the intelligence sent by Earl Leonard about the enemy’s military strength. There are more than 1,500 soldiers under the command of Earl Treto. , Even though there are fewer than 700 troops with battle strength, Richard is not able to deal with it.

In the Richard’s army, including the veterans led by Valantia, there are just over 700 people who really have battle strength. Richard does not expect the remaining 300 or so recruits to be able to compete with the number of veterans that exceed them. Yankul led the conscript.
