Rise of the Lord of Mount and Blade

Andrew Dalton’s Baron’s castle is made of pure wood. Its walls are five meters high and three meters wide. Even the wall stacks are made of sharp-pointed logs. This is also to increase the difficulty and risk of climbing. After all, there is almost no foothold, and you can only jump into the city wall corridor through the wall stack.

At the bottom of the city wall, people also dug a trench up to two meters deep. The trench was filled with many small wooden piles with sharp tips. If accidentally fell down, the whole body would be covered. Insert the densely packed blood hole.

The only way to get in and out of the castle is the wooden suspension bridge that is not wide at the main entrance of the castle, so the whole castle looks easy to defend and difficult to attack.

However, Richard knows that this kind of castle has a fatal weakness. Once the siege party attacks for a long time without any success, he will be cruel and set fire to this pure wooden castle, then hide in The villagers and defenders inside had to be burned alive like voles in a cave.

This has nothing to do with Richard. At this time, he was invited by Dalton Baron, who had heard the news, to enter his castle to participate in the banquet. Baron’s hospitality was so enthusiastic that Richard was his direct prince was a factor, and the Batanians’ attack on surrounding bandits was also a factor.

The Batanian’s battle strength showed Dalton Baron the muscles of Richard, the new king, and made Baron even more convinced.

Speaking of which, in the process of the Batanian fighters suppressing the surrounding bandits, they were not without casualties, including two Battanian tribal fighters and two Battanians. Eight warriors including the woodland scout and four Battanian volunteers were killed in the battle, and two tribal warriors were also seriously injured and were in a state of dying.

Their casualties resulted in the deaths and captures of nearly 60 robbers. They also seized spoils of war worth about ten golden dinars, and eight of them were fighters. Also got a chance to upgrade:

……

As the Batanian fighters are currently Richard’s main force, he didn’t even think about it. It took 11 Silver Coins to upgrade those eight warriors. One of the volunteers was upgraded to tribal warrior, two were upgraded to woodland scouts, two tribal warriors were upgraded to skilled warriors, two woodland scouts were upgraded to skirmishers, and one noble warrior. Also naturally upgraded to a Battanian hero.

Richard’s upgrade route is very clear. After the woodland scouts choose the skirmisher branch, they can be upgraded to Batania Rangers until Fifth Level. Although Batania’s cavalry is weak, his rangers don’t need to charge into battle, they can use the javelin they carry to carry out long-range attacks on the enemy.

……

Follow Dalton Baron into his castle. This castle has the same common problems as other castles of this era. The lack of windows makes the inside of the castle extremely dark and gloomy. Even during the day, the torch needs to be lit for lighting, not to mention the evening when darkness falls.

Walking inside the castle, Richard can even see the thick spider web on the corners of the ceiling by the light of the fire, and the small insect glued to it, and in the dark corner, the mouse chirp chirp twitter twitter calls endlessly.

How to say, this Odorei Castle perfectly meets the conditions of the horror castle that Richard had seen in his previous life. Apart from not being a tall stone fortress, it is said that there will be vampires, wandering ghosts and imprisonment here. Richard would not be surprised by the madman.

Too far.

Under the guidance of Dalton Baron, everyone arrived at the castle hall. The furniture in this hall is made of wood, and a fireplace was excavated on one of the walls. This fireplace is both It can be warmed by a fire in winter, and it can be cooked in a banquet.

Richard glanced around and found many decorations hanging on the wall, including portraits of Baron and his family, brown bear fur with the skin peeled off, and some other very simple things.

At the long dining table in the hall, there are already many dishes with food on it, and some servants are walking around. Among them, the most conspicuous are the suckling pigs with roasted brown skins and suckling pigs. An apple was stuffed in his mouth, and it was surrounded by black pork blood sausages.

Pork blood sausage can be said to be the favorite food of the nobles of this World. Although the black appearance does not seem to have much appetite, the chefs will put a few slices on the pig blood sausage. Good onions make decorations.

After entering the hall, Richard and Dalton Baron’s family both took their seats. Baron’s wife was a typical squire woman. She wrapped her long brown hair in a white veil, leaving only a touch of hair. Put it behind your right shoulder. She was wearing a white wool shirt, and the delicate collarbone was exposed to outsiders.

She does not seem to be very old, but she gave birth to three children. The oldest eldest son seems to be over ten years old, and the youngest daughter is very petite, and the oldest is not over five years old. .

Seeing Richard observing his family, Dalton Baron introduced him to his family very enthusiastically:

“Sir, this is my wife Violet, They are my eldest son Walter, second son Soslan, and eldest daughter Yanis.”

He tone barely fell, and Mrs. Baron led her children to stand up to greet Richard. But her daughter’s attention was obviously not on Richard, instead she stared at the food on the table greedyly.

Mrs. Baron soon discovered her daughter’s rudeness. She was a little panic and a little anger, and wanted to reprimand her daughter, but Richard was right in front of her, so she could only stare. Own daughter.

Richard watched this scene, the corner of his mouth slightly raised, he opened the mouth and said: “Mrs. Dalton, the child is greedy by nature, don’t blame her.”

” Understand, Master Viscount.” Mrs. Baron quickly nodded, and led the children to sit down again.

This little episode did not affect the beginning of the banquet. As Dalton Baron took the lead in raising the glass filled with red wine to pay tribute to Richard, the banquet slowly kicked off…
