our family is gone

Chapter 362 Wake Up Gas

It stands to reason that Greendale is not a member of the army, and Lance did not give her the power to order the army, and issuing this order is actually an act of ultra vires.

So the person in charge of the camp was still a little hesitant. This was one of the consequences of the rules. The authority was standardized, but it was also limited. If you want to be flexible, you have to pay a price.

But now is not the time to struggle with this, Grindel must make a decision.

"I will personally explain this matter to the lord, and now execute my order immediately, and I will be responsible for all consequences!"

The person in charge of the camp didn't know how Grindel knew the enemy from the white wolf's injury, nor how he could identify the enemy from a strange cry.

But now is not the time to think about this. Although I also follow the rules, there are only two teams in the camp.

If something really happened, those ordinary people outside would suffer.

Nothing to lose on the farm!

The situation did not allow him to hesitate too much, he gritted his teeth and waved his hand, shouting loudly.

"Excuting an order!"

As soon as these words were said, those soldiers who had been preparing around for a long time immediately executed them.

"Light the beacon fire!"

"The whole army is ready for war!"

Three other people rode out of the camp on fast horses to inform those people to come back. These three horses were usually used by the camp to pull supplies and maintain communications.

It can only be said that high-intensity training and frequent drills are beneficial. Although the camp looks very busy, everyone performs their duties and there is no sense of panic.

And Greendale didn't stop, and called the lord with [Messenger] when everyone else was busy.

There are no more words, just a sentence of "Wolf Warriors are coming".

The sentry tower is more than ten meters high, which is very conspicuous in this era, and the beacon fire is also a function of the sentry tower.

There is an iron basin full of firewood on the top. When it is lit during the day, it will produce billowing smoke, which can be seen from a long distance.

At night, a beacon fire is lit, and the strong fire can be seen from a long distance, which is used to convey the enemy's situation.

The soldiers went up and directly picked up a bottle of wood tar and poured it on the fuel in the iron basin. There was no need to burn it slowly, but it spread instantly when it touched the flame, and it burned in less than three to five seconds, accompanied by billowing smoke.

Soon a gray-black column of smoke rose into the sky.

The surrounding trees were cut down for farm reclamation, and the first people to see were those working on the farm. They had also received some emergency training, and knowing what this meant, they hurriedly assembled one by one.

And those who cultivate or log outside are farther away, so someone needs to ride a horse to call them back.

The two teams who went out to patrol noticed this and hurried back towards the farm.

But Grindel realized that this would not work. The range within which the war wolf could smell her scent was estimated to be only two to three thousand yards.

Whether it's for herself or Wangcai, based on what she knows about that mad dog, he will definitely rush over.

So now there are so few people, and there is no strong fortification, it may even affect the people and livestock on the farm.

She knew that Lance was not like other nobles, who didn't pay much attention to the casualties of ordinary people. On the contrary, he cared about it very much.

If I and Wangcai stick to this place, I will naturally be able to wait for reinforcements, but the crazy wolf may not know what it will do. Once the ordinary people on the farm suffer heavy casualties...

Greendale understands that the battle cannot take place on the farm, otherwise even the price of victory is unacceptable.

"The enemy's target is me and Wangcai. Now immediately carry Wangcai into the carriage. You stay here, and I will lure them away."

"My lord, are you looking down on us!"

Greendale's words directly offended these soldiers. Does this mean that they have no ability to protect?
"Your responsibility is to be responsible for the safety of the farm, not mine, and I have a carriage, so if you walk with me, it will slow down my actions.

What's more, now you have to appear in front of those ordinary people to appease them and organize them to prepare to resist the enemy's attack. This is your task. "

Grindale's ability to be in charge of government affairs shows that she understands the set of rules set by Lance better than others, and when she sees that the person in charge has an opinion, she directly puts out the rules to suppress them.

What is flexible?This is flexibility.

The person in charge also knew that this was reality, but he could only admit it with an aggrieved face.

"Hurry up and help lift it up, you go and organize the defense first."

Soon the carriage with the noble insignia worn off drove out of the camp again, but the strange thing was that it was not heading towards Hamlet, but towards the edge of the farm.

This is not far away, but actively approaching.

Why?

If Grindel wanted to run for her life, she should naturally head towards Hamlet. Now that the smoke has risen, Hamlet's cavalry may have already attacked this way.

At that time, people like Leonard will be there, even if they face the wolf warrior, they will not be incapable of fighting.

But the problem is that if you want to go back, you have to go through the farm, which will lead the wolf into the farm, and it will be destroyed before Leonard leads the troops.

The wolves tracked them based on their scent, and my stay just now was equivalent to marking the farm. If I want to stop the wolf warriors, I have to go in the opposite direction and appear in front of the farm in advance.

As long as the arrangements are made well, it may not be impossible to entangle those guys.

At that time, as long as it drags on for a while, I, Hamlet, am not without a strong man who can fight against the wolf!
It can be said that Greendale chose to take a lot of risks in order to protect the farm, and now she can only trust him...

In the open space outside the town of Hamlet, two teams of cavalrymen in uniforms were driving their horses to attack each other. The sabers in their hands were wrapped in cloth strips, but there was a "slap" sound when they were drawn on people's bodies. After returning, there would be bloodstains, which would not fade away after a few days.

Although guns and artillery have appeared now, cavalry is still the most powerful arm in the world at present. At least it will not start to decline until firearms develop rifles, rear loading, etc., and improve accuracy, rate of fire, and range.

What really ended the cavalry on the battlefield was not firearms, but vehicles such as automobiles and tanks.

Cavalry is useless when it loses its mobility advantage, but that's not going to be possible 200 years from where it is now.

Of course, that was the original timeline, and the appearance of Lance may bring surprises to the world.

This is why Lance attaches great importance to the improvement of firearms and the training of musketeers and artillery, but he also does not neglect the training of cavalry, and even attaches great importance to it.

The cavalry received the best treatment, and everything was given priority to them, but they also faced more rigorous training.

What limits them is not the limit of man, but the limit of horse.

Leonard looked at the training in front of him with a serious expression. He wanted to build them into strong soldiers in a shorter time, so that he could be worthy of the resources given to him by the lord.

It's just that the "fight" stopped suddenly, and all the soldiers, even Leonard, who was leading the cavalry training, looked sideways at the smoke column.

As the smoke column rose, it was not only seen around the farm, but also people as far away as Hamlet Town.

"Respond to the alarm!" Leonard shouted, "Put on armor and prepare for battle!"

The cavalry who were still training all immediately separated and started to move in an orderly manner.

They are not as rich as Bastia and can do one man and two horses, so they can only get the equipment quickly, put on the breastplate and put on the helmet in advance.

And Leonard took the opportunity to find a soldier and ordered to arrange it.

"Immediately notify the lord of the attack on the western farm, order Sergeant William to put under martial law, dispatch troops to guard the key points of access to and from the town, and pay special attention to those refugees. Anyone who dares to make trouble does not need to report and directly fight back.

Warn the garrison in the northern wilderness development zone not to move without authorization. It is not clear what kind of enemy is invading, but those cultists will definitely not miss this opportunity to make trouble. "

Leonard waved his hand to disperse the soldiers, and turned to look at the cavalry who had finished dressing and returned.

If the lord is not in the town when he is out, then he has to consider the safety of Hamlet, and it is impossible to go out so easily.

But now that the lord is in town, the cavalry that has been trained for so long today is destined to see blood.

"After practicing for so long, today is the time to test you." Leonard got on his horse, pulled out the [Champion's Certificate] and pointed at the beacon, "Let's go!"

After speaking, he drove the horse to run.

"Hamlet must win!"

These cavalrymen roared and rode their horses to keep up, their fanatical posture showing no fear of the coming battle.

Or they are eager to fight, eager to prove themselves.

After all, the generous treatment is not so easy to get, and these weapons and equipment are also very hot, they must use their achievements to prove the lord's vision to everyone.

Prove that they are worthy of the lord's favor.

For this they dare to charge any enemy of Hamlet!
In front of the lord's mansion.

"Is it not convenient for the lord to meet?"

"My lord hasn't woken up yet. He said nothing important and don't disturb him."

Susan stopped at the door, smiling at the visiting Amanda.

"Okay, sorry to trouble you." Amanda didn't bother, but backed out instead.

Yesterday she heard that the lord was back, so she came to visit today, but this situation made her fall into an embarrassing situation.

In fact, she could feel the lord's alienation from her, maybe it was dissatisfaction with the organization's attitude or some other reason, even if she took the initiative to contact the past, there was no response.

And according to the information obtained from some channels, that guy Tamara showed extraordinary talent after returning, and his reputation in the organization continued to rise.

Amanda knew that Tamara had regained the attention of the organization because of the man standing behind her.

On the contrary, his inexplicable mission failed, so he lost the support of the teacher, and he failed to make any progress in staying here, let alone contact Hamlet's inner circle.

Amanda is also a little helpless about this. She is obviously conscientious, but she doesn't know why she has been unlucky since she met Tamara.

Before she could take a few steps, a plume of smoke rose into the sky at this moment. Noticing this made Amanda pause.

what's going on?
She didn't know, but Susan who was standing at the door understood what this meant.

Suddenly, an angry look appeared on his face, and he couldn't help but curse.

"Can't those damned guys let adults have a good rest!"

As soon as she finished speaking, a soldier who hurried over said something to her, and soon turned around to inform the others.

Amanda didn't go far, and naturally heard the key words, the farm in the northwest was attacked, and even the garrison could not solve it before lighting the beacon for help.

Susan hurriedly turned back, and Amanda was also lost in thought.

"grown ups!"

Susan came to the door and called out, but there was no response.

"Didn't I say that there is nothing important and don't wake me up..."

Finally, calm and cold words came from the room.

"My lord, this morning the Northwest Farm reported that an injured white wolf was found. Miss Greendale went to investigate but before she came back, she raised a beacon for help. Leonard has led the cavalry to rescue."

The room was silent for two seconds before a slightly normal tone came out.

"understood."

In the past, Lance got up early, and he didn't just need to be busy with the town's government affairs. This world sucks, and he can't continue to use that set of things. Otherwise, he might as well just lie down and wait for the world to be destroyed, which is about the same anyway.

Therefore, it is necessary to build a new structure, reform in education, medical care, law, etc., as well as some fragmentary inventions that can be remembered.

These other people can't help him, because only he has reference objects, so most of them are on him.

What's more troublesome is that there are extraordinary powers in this world, which are destined not to be copied, and various ideas must be studied in order to be practically applied.

But he is just an ordinary person with a salary of [-] a month. He only fishes when he goes to work, and he only plays games when he is off work.

Fighting non-stop for seven days in the beast den, even with the [Blessing] refresh status, he has accumulated a lot of pressure, and his physical exhaustion is beyond everyone's imagination.

And what he wants is very simple, just a lazy sleep until he wakes up naturally.

But now someone disturbed him, and the pressure that had accumulated for a long time was like a powder keg being ignited directly.

Lance's faith is being tested...

tyrannical! ! !

The door of the room was opened, and Lance strode out. Looking at the stiff face, he knew that the emotions were like a backlog of volcanoes, and no one dared to offend him.

"My lord, I will prepare breakfast for you now."

"No need, it's not too late to eat after killing." Lance said casually, but revealed a strong killing intent.

Susan was stunned for a moment when she heard this. In fact, she didn't want to wake up the lord for this kind of thing. After all, even if there was any enemy Leonard had already brought people there.

The lord was awakened only because Grindale had passed too, and the town needed someone to sit in.

But the lord wanted to do it himself.

"grown ups……"

"Needless to say, if they can't even do this well, then don't do it." Lance seemed to have expected her words, and interrupted directly by raising his hand, "Prepare the horse."

Susan didn't say anything more, and prepared to step back obediently.

Soon Lance rode his horse and rushed out of the Lord's Mansion. Before leaving, he seemed to notice that Amanda glanced at him, but he rushed out without paying attention.
