Mount and Blade

Chapter 125 Corpse

The big hand on the sand table pushed the flag to the plain of Ledourin. Time wasted no time. Before all the troops could be assembled, Midland's army left the gate of Erda Fortress and deployed all the cavalry against Judah. The army launched a guerrilla strategy on the plains, with Juris's White Dragon Knights as the vanguard.

A fierce fight is about to begin.

............

In a small castle far away on the northern border of the capital Wendam, Baka was pacing back and forth with gloomy eyes. More than half a month had passed since William's body was found and brought to the Galanz family for verification. Earl Mi of the Galanz family Xie has already sent people to try to get in touch with the White Dragon Knights. Even though the fighting on the front line is fierce, there should be no news at all.

William of the Galanz family was dead. He had been dead for several months when his body was found. The body was unrecognizable and had been eaten up by wild dogs. If it weren't for the fragments of clothing on his body, it was obviously much better than those in slum neighborhoods. I'm afraid I can't find any basis at all.

According to the little beggar, almost all the people present at the time were killed by that group of people, and then the patrol captain in the city threw them all into a mass grave for fear of getting into trouble. No one would go to a place like that to find corpses anyway. .

The clues that Baka found about this matter were from when he was driving out from the Dioca family by Mr. Wens of the Dioca family, when he was preparing dry food for the road in a northern town near Wendam, a man holding a noble flag in his hand The little beggar caught his attention.

First, I wonder why this beggar was able to get the flag emblem of the nobleman. Could it be that he is a thief? Second, I was curious about whose knight was so careless. I didn’t know it until I looked at it. Only when I looked at it did I realize that this flag emblem was so dazzling! !

It's that William's family! Galanz! !

Baka immediately grabbed the flag and emblem, grabbed the little beggar by the collar and asked him where he got it.

The little beggar was trembling with fear. In order to avoid risking his life after telling the truth, he honestly took Baka to a deserted alley and explained what happened. If he hadn't been among the corpses of his companions that day, Pretending to be dead, I'm afraid he might not be able to escape death, but in a dark and damp place like the slums, it's not uncommon for people to die every day.

After all, money, clothing, etc. can be collected from the dead. The winter in Midland is still very cold, and some people even use it directly to satisfy their hunger...

After all, the little beggar was still a child. He waited until they all left before rummaging through the corpse. He found a small, shiny metal flag in the chest of the corpse. If he hadn't really been unable to find anything to eat, he wouldn't have. I chose to pawn such a thing, after all, it was rare to see such a shiny thing, and I kept it hidden in my chest like a treasure every day.

Immediately afterwards, Baka asked the little beggar to lead the way to the mass grave, but there were no traces anywhere. However, in order to obtain sufficient evidence, Baka still took the little beggar to find William's already putrid corpse, and his The corpses of the attendants and the materials of their clothes showed at a glance that they were of noble origin.

The little beggar had no name. Perhaps thinking of his nephew, Baka took the little beggar and asked him to be his attendant. He had no name, so Baka named him Godot.

"No, it's been so long. If it doesn't work, I'll go find Captain White Dragon myself!!"

Baka slapped his big hand on the chopping board. There should have been news these days. It has been more than half a month. Could it be that it was not delivered at all? Ever since he knew that William's identity was fake, he had been looking forward to the news he wanted all the time.

So Baka went to find Count Michel in person. Due to the heavy suppression from the Dioca family, Count Michel immediately stamped the envelope of the report with the seal of the Galanz family. Baka also impatiently took it with him on the same day. Gordo set off for the Erda Fortress. Although he could not catch up with the king's team at this time, all high-level officials were on the front line. This matter must be made public! !

If you want to ask why the people who were sent out have not yet passed the letter to Yuris, there is only one answer. Cady's secret sentries have also been arranged into the Galanz family to observe the dynamics. Only a few of them are killer materials. The first few Either they had their food tampered with or they were intercepted on the way. After all...people always have to sleep.

However, Baka left in a hurry, and the weather was getting warmer. He didn't even bring a tent with him. He took two more horses and left with his entourage. Looking at Baka walking away, Count Michel sighed. It is said that This Baka has been kicked out by the Ent family. At first, he thought that Baka was here to ask for an explanation for the young master of the Dioca family. After all, when the Galanz family was targeted by the Dioca family, this gentleman could be said to be " You deserve a lot of credit," but he came alone.

In fact, it would be fine as long as the Dioka family doesn't cause trouble. As for his bastards... His having too many bastards is just a way to deal with the conscription from above. It is also a low-cost investment. After all, it can It is not easy to survive in the battlefield. It would be a very good thing to be able to honor the ancestors. He only has one legitimate son. He does not need to go to any battlefield. He just needs to wait peacefully to inherit his inheritance and title.

.........

On the plains of Ledorein, the horseback duel between Midland and Judah has been in full swing for more than half a month. The weather is gradually getting hotter. The vast expanse of grass is growing like waves, and the tired horses Water can only be obtained from a few small lakes, all of which come from Lake Lenain.

Both the Juda people and the Midlanders need to drink the water here and the animals in the grasslands.

The war brought death but also allowed the animals in the grasslands to eat. The wolf pups in the wolf pack were all well-fed, even foxes and mice were no exception. Vultures hovered in the sky and the bare trees were burned by the war. On the branch, the fate of reincarnation begins, and the land that nourishes nature returns to its origin.

"Wow!!"

Green, who was extremely thirsty, took a handful of sweet river water. The scorching sun at noon was really making people sweat. In the clear river, you could still see pebbles and a few small fish swimming back and forth below it, and filled the water bag with it. Man immediately washed his face and neck. The armor was too hot from the sun, and his face was dusty with sweat stains. There was a lot of mud on his neck, so he could only Unfortunately, I don’t have time to take a shower now. I have to cover myself with prickly heat. Of course, fleas can’t be avoided. I really don’t know how to live such a life. It’s really too bad for a modern person. At any rate, it used to be You can spray pesticides to get rid of these nasty little bugs, but now you don't have the conditions, so you can only change clothes frequently and dry them.

It's a pity that I have to lick blood from the tip of the knife every day, so I don't have time to kill these little bugs.
