Chapter 575: Endurance King Elad
While Horn was having a secret conversation with the two-talker Meliati Qianhe River Valley, the King's Avenue of Feiliu Castle, a hundred miles away, was crowded with priests and sergeants who had fled at night.
As the defeated soldiers of the Imperial Company entered the city to rob, the news that Prince Kong Dai was defeated and beheaded quickly spread in Feiliu Castle.
Although everyone thought it was ridiculous, as the news of the defeated army became more and more detailed and true, they still had to recognize the reality.
The group of dung-pickers and pig-riders joined forces to defeat the noble knights of the edict.
During this period, the knights regrouped and tried to fight back.
However, several senior cavalry officers of the Order Company were either missing or died in battle. The morale of the ordinary knights was extremely low. Those who assembled were quickly attacked first by the Northern Mound Mountain Knights and were immediately defeated.
With the violent tempers of these mountain people, it is absolutely impossible for them to accept the surrender and capture of knights like Horn.
What prisoners? No one surrendered, they all died in battle.
More than half of the remaining four to five hundred knights were directly killed and slaughtered by the mountain knights. The remaining half basically fled the vicinity of Feiliu Castle by land route at night due to their high mobility or failure to stop for looting.
Of course, some of the mountain knights stopped at the roadside in advance to check on the passing fugitives one by one.
If they belong to small townspeople or small businessmen, these mountain knights will make an inquiry and extort a little money from them before letting them go.
But if you find that it is a priest or a noble knight, then be embarrassed, turn your horse around, turn your car around, and follow them back to Flying Castle honestly.
"You are too arrogant to take two pregnant women walking at night." Putting a few dinars into his belt, a mountain knight patted his belly, "You are afraid of the witch, but you are not afraid of killing your wife and sister-in-law. Had a miscarriage?”
"That witch has witch disease. If she is infected, my family will be wiped out." The painted-faced farmer wearing a straw hat had a grimace on his face, "Not to mention those soldiers. I am going to live in the countryside. If nothing happens, I'll be back again."
"Okay, okay, let's go." The mountain knight waved impatiently, and the carriage passed the low bridge over the river smoothly.
After crossing the bridge and driving some distance away, the farmer drove the carriage to the side of the road. Not long after, a wet old man pushed aside the bushes and walked over.
"Are they not suspicious?" He pushed his hair back and asked the farmer while taking off his wet clothes.
Although the farmer had blackened his face with potion and shaved his eyebrows and hair short, he could still vaguely see the outline of Elad's face.
"No, but we have to leave quickly. If they find out that I'm not dead, they probably won't be able to leave." Elad opened the car door to let the two anxious mistresses out.
When they were wanted previously, they discovered that the Salvation Army and the Mountain Knights thought Elad was dead, and that's how the two of them secretly escaped from Flying Castle.
During the Battle of Cheese Cove, after Elard was defeated, he first fought hard and then pretended to be dead.
When the Salvation Army infantry went to besiege Prince Condai, he changed clothes with the knight next to him, took the opportunity to snatch an ownerless war horse, and escaped from Cheese Bay.
After putting on a disguise, Aylard ran to the vicinity of Feiliu Castle, preparing to secretly pick up the two pregnant mistresses that Prince Condai had placed in the farm outside the city.
This is the direct bloodline of the last two Plantagenet dynasties, and its value is definitely more than the hundreds of gold pounds.
However, as soon as he ran nearby, he met La Cunho who was driving away with his two mistresses.
Everything he can think of, Raccuño can also think of.
After discovering that Prince Condé had fallen, Lacunio immediately judged that this battle was definitely unwinnable, so he immediately fled the battlefield in advance and ran to the farm to pick up two Plantage dynasty backups.
There is nothing that can be done about it after the queen has been raised to death, but the Jinque family's bloodline must continue. Lacunio had repeatedly urged Prince Condé to have offspring just for this day.
With his breathing method, he still has twenty or thirty years of good life, and raising two more trumpets will not be a problem, but these two children do not have as good resources as Prince Kong Dai.
Their father had handed over all the wealth of the Golden Bird family in the Battle of Cheese Bay, but with their noble family background, these two children could finally get a baron or knight.
The demise of the Plantagenet Dynasty is destiny, just like that farmer who was able to sweep the Thousand River Valley in one fell swoop. If you don't have this in your destiny, don't force it. The consequence will be the current Prince Kong Dai.
In addition to grief, La Cunho completely looked away and asked for nothing more than to continue the Jinque family.
"What should we do next? Do we want to avenge the prince?"
"Let's go to the Kingdom of France next. I guess the French people will be very interested in the blood of the Jinque family." Lacunio shook his head, "I'm old, and you are the defeated general, how can you take revenge? But it doesn't matter, there is someone He will help us get revenge.”
La Cunho closed the door and continued to move forward with Elard. The carriage walked on the silver-white avenue under the moonlight, with occasional broken knights running by on both sides.
"Who?" Elad shook the reins and asked curiously.
"Church."
"Church?"
After glancing at him, La Cunho patiently explained: "The land of Thousand River Valley was originally an invisible treasury dedicated to the church by the Kingdom of Laia. Nowadays, the division of the church between the north and the south is unavoidable, and the church in the south has lost its financial resources. In order to compete for orthodox status, the Northern Church will definitely try to regain the Thousand Valleys.”
"But don't the Kingdom of Fran and the Kingdom of Norn secretly support Qianhehe Valley?"
"Hmph, you are totally wrong if you think so. The Kingdom of Fran and the Kingdom of Norn are not supporting the Thousand River Valley, but are trying to weaken the Kingdom of Leia.
You have to know that as long as Qian Hehe does not bow to the church and dares to treat nobles and knights like this, then the empire has no reason to accept Qian Hehe. All the rhetoric is just for the final ugly face.
After the Battle of the Windmill Land, although the Kingdom of Leia still retained the Windmill Land, it was already weakened internally. Both Norn and Fran were thinking of annexing his territory.
If the Kingdom of Laia attacks the Thousand River Valley, they will certainly support the Thousand River Valley, but they neither want the Thousand River Valley to win, nor do they want the Kingdom of Laia to win.
The best thing is for the Thousand River Valley to become a meat grinder and bleed to death for the Kingdom of Leia, so that hyenas like them can pounce on them and bite them.
After the Kingdom of Leia is completely torn apart, is it still necessary for the Thousand River Valley to exist?
In other words, when the Laians attack the Thousand River Valley, the other two kingdoms will only support the Thousand River Valley with any support other than sending troops. From the moment they dare to clean up the Thousand River Valley Church, their destruction is already doomed. ”
"But all this should be based on the premise that Leia can really win, right?"
"Are you kidding me?" Lacunio glared at Elad, "The Pope launched the Crusade and cooperated with the local knights of Leia to gather tens of thousands of knights. These cavalry are more than the infantry of the Salvation Army. They What to fight with?
To put it bluntly, if we really win, it will be a disaster. The heresy in Qianhe River Valley can defeat the entire Kingdom of Leia. What do you think the other two kingdoms will think? ”
With an uncertain light in his eyes, Racunho looked back at the castle that gradually disappeared from his sight: "Look, at the latest two years, the Crusaders will come, and at the latest five years, this place in the Thousand River Valley will A little wave will be completely lost in history!”
