Chapter Forty Three Guest On

So Richard divided the surrendered troops into three teams, led by three infantry knights, each team was equipped with a captive knight, plus a few surrendered soldiers who led the way and killed people as the backbone, and supplemented by other surrendered soldiers, forming a team. This grouping can ensure the control of the troops, and at the same time can maximize the combat effectiveness of the infantry knights. This group of infantry knights is not only a small soldier who can only fight on the battlefield, but also has rich experience in commanding the battle.

After two days on the lakeside, when the count's reinforcements were about to arrive at the Baron's territory, Richard made an unexpected decision to release all the hostages. He arranged for the two enfeoffed knights who said they would not surrender and escort the wives and ladies and young men back. As for transportation, they were the two carriages. They were not qualified enough and could not get on the carriage and could only walk by themselves.

After sending off the hostages, Richard set out. The team was divided into two, and three infantry knights led the surrendered troops, and led some war horses to the west, trying to cross the mountains and find a secret road leading to the Duke of the Wolf. Richard returned to the forward base with the rest of the people, which had a lot of supplies to be replenished and packaged. In fact, the most precious thing in the entire forward base is the time lighthouse, but unfortunately it could not be taken away at all.

Richard's plan was to rest for a few more days in the base and crack Essin's diary. Anyway, it should be safe at this stage.

In the afternoon of that day, smoke and dust rose on the road leading to the Baron Fossa City. Teams of knights in bright armor were riding forward briskly, with bright silver armor and scarlet cloaks, making them look extremely powerful. Behind the knights were three times the number of cavalry entourages. They were entourages serving the knights, and when fighting independently, they would become brave light cavalry. Behind the entourages were the infantry of the ranks. Most of these infantry were wearing mail or half-body plate armor, holding various attacking heavy weapons, or huge tower shields. At the end of the team, there were hundreds of archers, with longbows of the same height as people behind them, obviously elite longbow archers.

This army is not large in size, with only about 500 people, but it is well-equipped and powerful. Its momentum is far superior to the Baron's army. More than a dozen red and gold two-color flags flying in the wind are the symbols of Earl Galleon. These extremely ostentatious battle flags have been roaming on many battlefields and have made countless enemies frightened.

At this time, the guards had already informed Baron Fossa. The Baron climbed the watchtower of the castle and looked at the end of the road with an alchemy telescope, so he saw the flying battle flags clearly. Baron Fossa's eyes were on one of the flags decorated with blood-stained axe on the black background. He remained motionless for a long time, his lips were tightly pursed, and the corners of his lips continued to fall.

"Baron Pelisakin! How could it be him?" Fossa murmured to himself. He suddenly felt his head hurt again. He had enough trouble recently, and Pelisakin's surprise came a lot. And I don't know when this trouble will be gone.

Baron Pelisakin was wearing his signature deep black armor and walked in the middle of the cavalry. He was very tall and thin, with a waxy yellow face. His carefully trimmed short beards did not add elegance, but instead gave him a bit of a gloomy and cruel atmosphere. His eyes were always half open and half closed, as if he had just suffered from insomnia last night. Only by sitting on the horse was straight and without any extra shaking, could he see the charm of his strong man slightly.

The elite troops soon arrived at the intersection in front of the castle and met a group of soldiers who came from the other direction. It was an ordinary standing army led by three conferred knights and escorted more than a dozen carriages in front and behind. When they saw the Count's banner, they immediately stopped the convoy and waited for Baron Pelisakin's team to go first.

The main entrance of the castle had been opened, and Baron Fossa came out from the castle with several close followers. However, Pelisakin's eyes swept over the baron casually, and instead focused his attention on the convoy. He suddenly raised his hand, and the army behind him immediately stopped neatly.
