Mount and Blade

.........

"Squeak" The gate slowly opened, and they had arrived at the hinterland fortress of the Kingdom of Midland - Erda Fortress.

This place is only more than 300 miles away from the royal city of Windam. It can be said to be an extremely critical large fortress, which can accommodate nearly 10,000 cavalry troops. The various defensive wall equipment is even better than that of the Or Fortress. In order to resist the invasion of artillery, even the wall has been widened and thickened to a very amazing width. Various edges and corners are designed into polygons to form a more resistant shape to artillery bombardment. The surrounding area also diverts the middle and upper reaches of the Leize River Basin as a natural moat.

If Dordorei is the first fortress of the entire Sword Wind Continent, then Erda Fortress can definitely be called the second for thousands of years, occupying the same key geographical location.

The group of people all looked exhausted. After all, they had lost the battle and crossed the vast Redorin Plain. They were attacked by the Joda cavalry from time to time. When dry food was insufficient, they could only rely on archers to hunt and eat grass roots. When it was really impossible, they could only slaughter war horses to fill their stomachs. After a period of wear and tear, only 12,000 people were left in the 40,000-man army, and the total number of the Knights was still included.

But now is not the time to sigh and groan. We must quickly regroup to meet the next battle.

Laban strengthened the defense of the Erda Fortress. From Kadi's frown every day, it can be seen that Laban's order this time was very effective.

But Kadi was still the same. If the destruction in the fortress could not be done, he would start from other aspects-assassination.

In addition to assassinating the lord of the Erda Fortress, he also successfully killed a key member of Midland and the business leaders who contributed to Midland, making Midland, which was already struggling to support itself, even more internally consumed and financially and humanly empty. The successive assassinations had to attract the attention of the upper echelons, but no one dared to say anything at this critical moment of life and death. After all, everyone cherished their lives and did not want to die on the front line. The important thing is that King Yuvi of Midland trusted Laban very much.

With the last lesson, Laban would leave the rear to his confidants to constantly patrol the interior of the fortress even when he led the army to go on an expedition. Even the night duty staff were arranged clearly. If there was a mistake in any place, all the staff on duty would be beheaded.

With an order, all the soldiers on night duty did not dare to fall asleep, for fear of neglecting something.

The spies that Kadi had sneaked into the Erda Fortress were also killed in the assassination of the lord. This time, they could not jump up at all. Moreover, the soldiers began to have fixed dormitories. Usually, 100 soldiers lived in a dormitory with their centurions and decapitators. Every soldier who died in battle would be remembered very clearly by their decapitators, and the soldiers gradually became familiar with each other's appearance and name. Now they could not sneak into the army at all.

Because the Erda Fortress was a fully armed military fortress, even the civilians of Midland could not stay here, so Kadi was now completely a commander without troops. Therefore, he could always be seen drinking when he was free, and then... he watched Green train every day when he had nothing to do.

"Didn't you eat? Such an attack... is just like dancing." Kadi's one-handed sword easily picked up the one-handed sword in Green's hand, and kicked Green hard in the stomach.

"Bang"

The bloody Green was kicked far away and struggled to get up. His small canine teeth were knocked out and he had a mouthful of mud and sand.

"Puh!"

Green spat out the saliva mixed with mud and blood, as well as the broken milk tooth.

Exhausted... But Green still trembled and climbed up from the ground with a one-handed sword. Kadi didn't use a big sword, and under the guidance of Seranti, Green was just a beginner in one-handed sword. How could he be compared with Kadi? Moreover, since Kadi discovered Green's good recovery ability, he never showed any mercy and was completely treated as an object of venting...

But Green would not accept his fate like this. The damn old man, the sword in his hand would sooner or later chop his ass.

Although Green's scarred right hand was trembling physiologically, it still pointed at Kadi, staring at him stubbornly and viciously.

This look... is exactly the same! !

Kadi's eyebrows were even more uglier, and his slightly mean face was gritting his teeth. He smacked Green's one-handed sword with great force, and kicked Green far away until he fainted.

The gloomy man sheathed his sword and left the training ground alone, probably to continue drinking.

After a battle, almost everyone in the training ground focused their attention here. Although it was not the first or second time, all the white dragon knights in the training ground were a little worried about Green, because the kid was injured every time as if he would never wake up again. Several knights sighed.

"Alas, I don't know why William would treat such a young child so harshly?"

"...I don't know what kind of relationship they have that would allow him to do such a thing."

"But it's not without benefits, it's better than dying on the battlefield...and I see that the child can stand up and swing the sword again every time, I think William was a little too harsh..."

"...Well, after all, it's a matter between the two of them."

"Alas, who knows, William seems to be in a bad mood recently, maybe because of the defeat..."

"Huh? Isn't that right? I heard that his family seemed to be targeted by the Dioca family's business..."

"...Is that so?"

"..."

Sunnyvale, who was following his father, was lost in thought... Maybe he really couldn't compare with him, no, there was no comparison at all, because that guy who seemed to be called Green or something had paid so much. Can't let his mentor...

"Did you see that? Senniva, you still have a lot to go through." Aaron lowered his head and looked at his incompetent son. Although he would not treat him so harshly, Senniva's martial arts skills were indeed not solid enough.

"Well..." Seniva lowered his head and followed his father to the training ground to practice.

Green was also carefully carried to the military doctor by Bazisuo. After several bloody battles, Bazisuo was no longer the cowardly guy. He couldn't always hold the boss back... .

If it hadn't been for Green, he might have died on the battlefield long ago. It was he who taught him how to raise his ax to protect himself on the battlefield. Not only the weapon... but even the armor was given by Green in the most critical moment. My own, you must quickly become stronger...Bazisuo! !
