Farming Road from Baron to Emperor

Chapter 19 The Count of Violet Strikes

Every time I come to Tulip’s mansion, Baron Berg Cherry Blossom is always full of praise. The Tulip family doesn’t build a castle, so the mansion covers a large area, with a built-in garden. In the garden, a mountain pond is built, and flowers and trees are planted. Keith Tulip The Earl often entertains guests here, and Berg Sakura has been fortunate enough to come here a few times. It is really heaven on earth.

The guard at the gate went in to announce his return, followed by the welcoming servants. Baron Berg took a deep breath, success or failure depended on it.

Entering the hall, I saw Earl Keith sitting on a chair and gestured to him to sit down.

Baron Berg did not do what he usually did - he bowed his body, then sat down and exchanged pleasantries.He knelt down directly on the ground, with grief on his face, and said, "Lord Case, Earl Katz Violet attacked the Cherry Blossom Collar."

Count Keith stood up abruptly, and asked in surprise, "What happened, how many people did Count Violet bring?"

"My lord, Earl Violet brought two knights and an infantry regiment. Seeing that something was wrong, I led the knights to evacuate first. Now it is estimated that the Cherry Blossom Collar has all fallen into the hands of Earl Violet."

Case didn't speak, his face was heavy, and he took out the map.There are three barons with different surnames in Tulip Territory, Baron Iris, Baron Sakura, and Baron Alocasia.

The Iris Baron is to the north of the Tulip Collar and borders the Clivia Collar, the Cherry Blossom Baron is bordered by the Violet Collar to the northeast, and the Calla Lily Baron is bordered by the Hyacinth Collar to the east.

The iris collar, the cherry blossom collar, and the calla lily collar are equivalent to the Great Wall to the northeast of the tulip collar, which is also a buffer zone. Now Earl Violet has gathered a large army, and it seems that he is coming for him.

Case clapped his hands, and Milton, the personal servant beside him, came over. Case said: "Kullman, the captain of the yellow tulip knight, Sakine, the captain of the blue tulip knight, Marshall, the commander of the tulip infantry, and Hah, the political officer. Kan, and Baron Danse calling."

After a while, everyone came together, and the bold and forthright Marshall said, "Lord Earl, what happened." Everyone also looked at Earl Keith curiously. All the senior military and political officials in the territory had arrived, and said without humility, They can represent the tulip collar.

Case glanced at Baron Berg and said, "Count Katz led his two knights and infantry to attack the Cherry Blossom Collar."

The political officer Hakan took over the conversation and said: "It seems that they are here for the tulips. Earl Katz mobilized his troops to come here before the autumn harvest. It seems that the request is not small."

If it was just to fight Caogu, there was no need to mobilize so many troops, and there was no need to attack the Sakura collar.

"Yeah, that's what's coming for me," Case said.

"Master Earl, I would like to lead the army. The Tulip Infantry Regiment's great reputation is not blown out, it is fought out. A few years ago, they defeated the Mandala Earl Infantry Regiment of the Duchy of Luma, killing four hundred enemies and taking eight hundred prisoners. .”

Marshall took a step forward, clenched his fist with one hand, and continued: "The last time I attacked the Violet collar, the infantry regiment collapsed at the first touch. I really don't know how he dared to come. I would like to be the vanguard. Let's see how Earl Violet is preparing this time." What means."

Kullman and Sakine looked at each other, and Marshall took the lead again. The two also hurriedly stood up and said, "I would also like to be the pioneer."

The tulip collar is famous as an infantry regiment. This is mainly due to the battle formation training method left by their ancestors, which can stimulate fighting spirit and average it to everyone, so that those fighters who do not have fighting spirit can also have fighting spirit protection, and it is easier to comprehend Cultivate grudge.

This time and again, the Tulip Infantry Regiment not only has high-quality soldiers, but also has the blessing of the battle formation when fighting, making it invincible.Therefore, the territory also pays more attention to infantry. Tulip has three knight regiments and one infantry regiment.

In addition to the White Tulip Knights sent to the Iris Territory, which has about 250 people, the Blue Tulip Knights and the Yellow Tulip Knights both have 300 people, but an infantry regiment has 500 people, and the armor rate is 40%. Much, the rest are all leather armor.

Case thought for a while, then said: "Since Earl Violet wants to fight in the field, let's fight in the field. If he dares to mobilize all the troops, I dare to mobilize all the troops. Marshall, Sakine, Kullman, call the soldiers and knights , Reorganize the team, tomorrow I will review the troops."

"Government officer Hakan, prepare 500 days of food and grass, and conscript [-] serfs to deliver the food. This time, I want to capture Earl Violet alive. I am looking for trouble before the autumn harvest. I am looking for death."

Hakan was a little worried, and said: "Lord Earl, we have attacked Violet's territory many times in the past, and they have never attacked us before. This time, Earl Violet must have come prepared. Please be careful, Earl." .”

It is impossible to defend the city. Defending the city can only be the worst plan. Otherwise, if you are trapped in the city, the serfs outside and the wheat fields will be picked by you. They will rob you of your food and population. If you surround it for a while, it will be considered the last Food ran out and the troops were forced to withdraw.

But you can't bear to come here once a year, not to mention that the field strength of the Tulip Army is stronger than that of the Violet Territory, and it is even more impossible to directly defend the city. You have to try to know what method there is.

Case looked at Baron Berg and said, "How many people are there in the Sakura Knights?"

"There are more than eighty people."

Case said: "When the time comes, form a third team as a reserve army, Baron Danse, don't send out your knights, stay and guard the city."

"As ordered."

"Yes, my lord."

……

On the school grounds, Earl Keith stood on the high platform, and under the high platform, soldiers of the infantry regiment wore armor and stood in the middle, including pikemen, shieldmen, and axemen.On the left is the Order of the Yellow Tulip and on the right is the Order of the Blue Tulip.The soldiers and knights lined up neatly, very quietly, without the slightest noise.

Case was full of arrogance, and because of this, Earl Violet was here to die. He ordered: "Knights and soldiers will be rewarded with 50 silver coins, and 50 silver coins will be rewarded after they return from victory."

The political officer Hakan twitched in his heart, and then he spilled 2000 gold coins. You must know that the annual income of tulips is only 3000 gold coins.

At this time, the pre-arranged person in the crowd shouted: "My lord has given you so much reward, and I will serve you for my lord. This battle must be won."

"Serve the earl, this battle must be won."

"This battle must be won."

In this way, the military spirit is available.

The army marched towards the Cherry Blossoms in the northeast, and Kuhlman led the Yellow Tulip Knights to investigate in front. A group of ten people, at least one of the Earth Knights, spread out in all directions, cruising seven or eight miles away, to detect the enemy's movements.

……

Thierry is an Earth Knight of the Yellow Tulip Knights, but he has not been canonized as a Lord Knight because of insufficient military exploits. Now is a good opportunity to make military exploits.

As an investigative knight, although it is dangerous, the rewards are real. If you can capture the opposite explorer knight alive, you can reward one gold coin. If you have important information, you can even be canonized as a knight knight on the spot.

"My lord, there is movement ahead."

Thierry looked at the four people around him, and he sent the other five people to go in another direction. After thinking about it, he made up his mind to take a gamble, begging for wealth and wealth, "Go, go and have a look."

At this time, eight enemy troops appeared in front of him. It seemed that they were here to spy on the military situation. Thierry's heart sank. It would be great if there were five other people. Two earth knights are more than enough to deal with these eight. He touched another The throwing knife on his waist can only be fought, if he can kill the land knight on the opposite side, he still has a chance.

When the two sides met, they went up to fight without a word, so close, it was too late to run, either to kill each other, make meritorious deeds, or be killed by the other party, there is no third way, it is better to be captured alive than to die in battle, at least Freed from torture.

The retinue knights on both sides are entangled with the retinue knights, and the earth knights are entangled with each other tacitly. At this time, the competition is the martial arts that are usually honed.

A shot came from the opposite side, Thierry relied on his strong fighting spirit, and stabbed it out with a backhand. It just depends on whether you dare to fight. The other party was obviously unwilling, so he greeted a few times, Two retinue knights came to help out, three against one, and Thierry was in danger. Although the fighting spirit was running all over his body, he still suffered a lot of injuries.

With the help of two retinue knights, the earth knight put all his fighting spirit on the spear and attacked with all his strength. Thierry was a little bit overwhelmed. Suddenly, the earth knight raised the spear in his hand and flew away. Seeing this, a retinue knight took advantage of the situation and stabbed him in the abdomen.

The earth knight felt that the victory was in his hands, and the middle door opened, and all his fighting spirit was transferred to the spear, and he retreated the spear, intending to kill him with one blow. With a wave, the throwing knife flew towards the earth knight.

The earth knight was just exhausted from his old strength, and when his new strength was not recovered, he saw that the throwing knife was getting bigger and bigger. He stretched out his left hand to stop it, but the flying knife pierced through the palm of his hand and pierced straight into his neck. He grabbed it weakly with his left hand and fell down.

Thierry breathed a sigh of relief and looked around. Although he attracted 3 people on his side, there was still one more person on the opposite side. There were only two of his retinue knights left, and there were six people on the other side, but it didn't matter anymore. , the rest are chicken tile dogs.

Seeing that Thierry was also injured a lot, the six people looked at each other and planned to fight. Two of them continued to fight, and the other two rushed towards him. He rushed.

Thierry was not in a hurry. He first resisted the spears of the two men, then grabbed them with both hands, and pulled them hard. They were all pulled off the horse. Thierry threw with both hands, and the spear thrown with his left hand was a little crooked. After dodging, the spear thrown by his right hand was fast and accurate, coupled with the use of fighting spirit, it pierced through a person rushing towards him in an instant, and the scene was instantly reversed, three hit three.

Then there was escape and pursuit. Thierry killed them all, and finally evacuated with the two enemy horses who were injured.

……

Kuhlman came back from the front, walked up to Case, and said, "The Earth Knight Thierry captured two scouting knights alive and beheaded six of them."

"There are many rewards, knights of Lord Thierry, one hundred households."

Kuhlman continued: "My lord, Earl Violet is less than twenty miles away."

"Marshall, tell the soldiers to put on their armor and organize a battle formation." Case called the signal soldier beside him again, and said, "Notify the knight commander Sakine, the knights put on their armor."

"Report to the Earl, it is less than ten miles away."

But it's Violet's side

"My lord, I have seen the Tulip Family Infantry Regiment. According to reports from the scouting knights ahead, it is estimated that there are about 300 people, and there are two other knight orders, with a total of 500 people." Said Gaul, the commander of the Red Violet Knights.

Violet compared it with the collected information, and it was not bad. She said, "Do you see that the Tulip infantry regiment is in order? Is there a chance for a sneak attack?"

"My lord, the Tulip Infantry Regiment has been reorganized, and now we can only fight head-on."

"Fortunately for him, how rampant they were before, how embarrassed they will be in the future, are the heavy horses sent by the second prince ready?"

"My lord, I'm ready. There are more than [-] people, all armored and vests. They are all land knights who have been battle-hardened."

"Okay, since Tulip is good at field battles, it's time to come out, so there's no way to save yourself in the city."

The sun is setting and the setting sun is like blood. The armies of both sides are on display, and the cavalry are cruising on the flanks.

Case ordered: "Marshall, beat the drums, Kullman, Sacchin, entangle the knights on the opposite side, and protect the flanks of the Tulip infantry."

The sound of whimpering drums resounded through this desolate land, and the tulip infantry formed a battle formation-indestructible, and the whole army formed a whole, like a tank moving forward.

Case stood on the high platform and looked down, only to see that the infantry on both sides had already engaged in battle.It was not in vain for him to issue rewards before the battle. The tulip infantry formation has not yet dispersed, and the violet infantry regiment can no longer hold it.

Tulip infantry, only attack but not defend. If you slash me, I will give you a shot. If you have cultivated your fighting spirit, then we will be unlucky together. If you have not cultivated it, then I am sorry, I will be injured and you will die.

Although it is not as good as the fighting spirit that has been cultivated, if you cut a few more knives, you will still die, but the violet infantry has already been frightened, and he does not hesitate to face the teammate behind him, Pao Ze, and kill him, and don't face the tulip infantry.

With the advancement of the Tulip Infantry, the Violet Infantry was quickly broken into formation and broke into an army.

Case sighed with some regret: "It's a pity we can't send cavalry out to hack and kill, otherwise we will surely gain a lot. Now we have to let them go."

Suddenly, the White Violet Cavalry Regiment was dispatched. Regardless of the fleeing Violet Infantry Regiment, they charged fiercely towards the upper left corner of the Tulip Infantry Regiment. Anyone who stood in front of them, whether it was Violet's defeated infantry or Tulip's neat battle formation , They all rushed up straight.

Case was shocked at first, and then he laughed and said, "Count Violet is out of his mind, how dare he charge cavalry at my fully armed infantry regiment."

Although they fought for a while, the Tulip Infantry Regiment did not pursue aggressively, but maintained the battle formation. The army advanced little by little, and the white violet cavalry seemed to hit a big rock. The cavalry who rushed in never came back.

Marshall said: "The shield hand stepped forward, the spearman followed, and the axe hand retreated." Along the gap in the middle of the battle, the well-trained Tulip infantry completed this difficult operation in an orderly manner. In the armor, the fully armed shield bearer stands in front, and there are long spears protruding from the gaps. The iron shield is like a mountain, and the iron spear is like a forest.

Group after group of Violet's cavalry rushed up bravely, risking their lives.

Sakine and Kullman said: "Master Earl, do you need to send the Knights?"

"No, wait a minute, after they started to flee, the Violet cavalry regiment hadn't moved yet."

At this time, a small gap appeared on the left side of the Tulip Infantry Regiment, and Marshall shouted: "Hold on, don't be afraid. Fill it up quickly." As long as the formation stays in place, it doesn't matter if there is a gap, how many cavalry do you have? "

"As expected of the world-famous Tulip Infantry Regiment, the 500-member knight regiment can't even break through a small corner." Earl Violet praised.

Gaul flattered him and said, "But now he is about to be defeated by Lord Earl."

"The 800-man infantry regiment, the 500-man knight regiment, and now the tulip infantry regiment hasn't even dispersed in formation, so there's no question of victory or defeat." Earl Violet said: "This battle is either won or died, regardless of the tulips wandering on the flanks. The Knights are here, the whole army is pressing forward, this time the heavy cavalry starts, if you win, you can do it all, if you lose, you can do it all."

"As you order, my lord count."
