Heroes of Silver Moon

"Quickly, quickly, take stock of all the supplies"

"Isn't breakfast ready yet? What are those guys doing?"

"Line up, line up for dinner"

As soon as it was dawn, the entire Alpine Fort became lively. Today is the day when Earl Hawke led the army to go out. That is to say, from today onwards, the army of the Hawke family has entered a state of war.

After having breakfast with the vassals in the banquet hall, he once again told the vassal who stayed behind some things to pay attention to.

Under the service of his attendants, Valéry took off his aristocratic robes, put on his plate armor, and put on a lord's cloak made of expensive fabrics. He walked to the castle and rode on a white steed.

The vassals who were also wearing full-body plate armor also followed Valery firmly, riding the horses they brought over.

Leading the white steed, he turned around and took a deep look at Gaoshan Fort.

Then, following Valéry's order, the retainers led 2,500 soldiers, pulling carts of military supplies, and set foot on the road to the capital with neat steps and firm expressions.

The territory of the Hood family, in front of the castle gate, is a messy army camp.

After determining that the king did not allow other families to participate in the matter, Marquis Hood sent those allies back.

Of course, out of courtesy, according to the troops brought by those allies, Marquis Hood also gave each family the gold coins they should get.

Although these families can also be allowed to help the Hood family garrison the territory, but the Hood family has a big business, and if one of these families becomes greedy, then their Hood family will suffer a lot.

Unlike the Hawke family who have become paupers, their Hood family still has a lot of wealth!

The Hood family originally owned 15,000 private troops, including 5,000 standing troops and 10,000 armed militias. Such a high proportion of the standing army is naturally closely related to the Hood family's finances.

This time, in order to deal with those attackers who were making trouble in secret, Marquis Hood decided to leave 2,000 standing troops and 5,000 armed militiamen to guard the house.

The army that was drawn to fight with the Hawke family in the capital was 3,000 standing troops and 5,000 armed militia.

In terms of quantity and quality alone, the army of the Hood family is indeed a complete victory over the army of the Hawke family.

But unlike the Hawke family who fought all the year round, the Hood family's armies, except for some retired soldiers from the Royal Army, were basically on the battlefield for the first time.

Coupled with the Hood family's territory, the environment is quite peaceful, and the training intensity and discipline of these people are also very problematic.

Judging from the camping of the army and the preparation of supplies, the retainers of the Hood family are almost crazy these days, and the army of 8,000 people is still in a mess.

"What are you all doing to eat! How many days have passed, and the army is still not ready!"

In the meeting hall where all the retainers gathered, the Marquis Hood, who was wearing a full body of plate armor, was slapping the table angrily, scolding the retainers in front of him.

However, although it is also a full-body plate armor, judging from the lightness of the plate armor, the defensive power of the full-body plate armor worn by Marquis Hood may be somewhat problematic.

This is not the Hood family. There is no good knight plate armor. In the treasure house of the Hood family, the best knight plate armor is almost piled up.

The main reason why Marquis Hood wore this kind of light plate armor was that the whole plate armor was too heavy.

Marquis Hood is already sixty-seven years old this year, and because he is only a high-level fighter, his lifespan is no different from that of ordinary people.

Therefore, the current Marquis Hood has begun to grow old.

Even though he was a high-ranking warrior, Marquis Hood couldn't wear heavy normal plate armor.

But the overwhelming, breathless heaviness was really unbearable for Marquis Hood, who was used to enjoying himself.

Therefore, the Marquis Hood wore a piece of clothing on his body, which looked like a full-body plate armor, but its thickness was not much different from a piece of paper.

This kind of full-body plate armor with exquisite appearance but poor defensive power is quite popular among human nobles, and it is called ceremonial plate armor.

After all, under the corruption of power and money, most of the nobles have long lost the bravery of their ancestors when they started their foundation.

Therefore, this kind of goods with a beautiful appearance but light appearance has become the armor of choice for the majority of nobles to pretend to be coercive.

In the meeting hall, facing the anger of Marquis Hood, all the retainers bowed their heads in shame.

These retainers, although they are also training the army according to the traditional method, but they have not fought for too long, and they will inevitably be a little slack.

And as soon as these knight retainers were lazy, the middle-level officers in the army, who were served by subordinates, began to be lazy when no one supervised them.

As soon as the mid-level officers served by these subordinates slack off, the entire army will become full and loose.

In addition, these retainers have basically never fought in war, so they have a serious lack of experience in commanding the army.

Those retainers who went to the military academy are not bad, at least they have a little level of command.

But those retainers who have never been to a military academy~www.readwn.com~ are really blind, commanding the army depends entirely on their own feelings.

Ever since the army was assembled, the Hood family's army has been in chaos.

It was no wonder that Marquis Hood was so angry.

The information about the Hawke family, he has almost gone through it in the past few days. Their army and the barbarians in the Gru Mountains are fighting every day and every year, and they have not stopped since the moment the territory was established.

Needless to say, the fighting literacy of its army!

But what about them! Although there are a large number of people, he really has no confidence in bringing such an army to fight against the Hawke family.

"I'll give you one more day. Tomorrow, if you can't prepare the army tomorrow, then I don't think the Hood family will need you retainers!"

Looking at this group of silent retainers, Marquis Hood smashed the wooden table in front of him with a fist, and then left angrily.

But upon hearing Marquis Hood's words, the group of retainers who had lowered their heads immediately turned face to face.

What Marquis Hood said just now means that if they do not do well, their title and manor will be taken back.

Even if it is impossible for the Hood family to abolish their retainers on a large scale, but abolish a few guys who are not doing well, I believe Marquis Hood can still do it!

In the forest, a bear is chasing two people before they run, and the best way to survive is to outrun the other person.

In the same way, if this group of retainers wants to keep their titles, they must do better than other retainers.

Thinking of this, the group of retainers all acted in a hurry.

Compared to being deprived of one's title, of course it's better for someone else to take the lead!
