Wandering Knight Start: I have a simple data panel
Chapter 35 Area of Responsibility
That night, Derek met many old friends.
The arrival of the Pereira Knights means that the war is about to begin.
In Count Pereira's tent, the senior generals of the Second Army gathered together.
A large map of the northern province hangs in the center, with every mountain range and every village marked in detail.
Derek saw Chloe Knight, and the two nodded to each other. The latter was a little surprised, obviously not expecting to see him here.
"Everyone, Iron Wall City is just ahead. According to the spies' reports, the barbarian army has crossed Iron Wall City. We will encounter them soon."
Count Perez's words made the atmosphere tense.
"What's the current situation in Iron Wall City?"
Some people couldn't help but ask whether the survival of Iron Wall City was related to the fate of the Second Army.
If it is lost, it will be in big trouble.
"Our Lord Governor has defended Iron Wall City, there will be no problem for a short time."
Count Perez gave everyone a clear answer, which made everyone breathe a sigh of relief.
However, he glanced around for a week, and then said in a serious tone: "Two missions, our Second Army only has two missions.
First, drive the barbarians out.
Second, avenge Chris Jeffries.
The Jeffreys family has offered a reward to anyone who can avenge the count, and a barony will be offered. "
As another earl in the northern province, Earl Jefferys died at the hands of the barbarians this time.
It was unlucky to say the least. The earl was unprepared and was suddenly beheaded by the barbarian army.
The whole process was very smooth, and the barbarian seemed to have determined his position long ago.
Everyone knew in their hearts that there must be a traitor.
But catching the traitor is not the mission of the Second Legion, it is to avenge the Earl.
Unexpectedly, as soon as Count Pereira finished speaking, everyone present was breathing heavily.
What a big temptation.
How many actual barons are there in the entire northern province? Definitely no more than twenty.
No matter who is able to obtain this fief, it means creating a family foundation.
Not to mention other benefits, such as fame and military merit.
It can be said that the count fell and everyone was full.
I just don’t know anyone who has such good luck.
Count Pereira was very satisfied with the increased morale. To be honest, this task was difficult because the murderer who killed the count was the leader of the entire barbarian army.
If anyone can achieve revenge, a barony will be stingy, and the king will definitely not hesitate to reward him.
However, Count Pereira's goal had been achieved, and he took advantage of the opportunity to start making arrangements.
“The Knights are with me, preparing to deal with the main force of barbarians.
The 1,000th Team...
The 1000th Team...clean this area.
Within ten days, I want to see the barbarians driven north of Iron Wall City. If anyone can't do it... I will withdraw him.
In addition, the heralds of each thousand-man team will report twice a day. I want to know your location and be ready to gather at any time. "
Count Pereira divided the tasks into regions and distributed the tasks directly.
He also holds a part of the reserve team in his hand, ready to support at any time.
Moreover, if the barbarians have any unusual movements, they can respond calmly and initiate battles.
In this way, step by step, we will first drive the barbarians out of the south of Iron Wall City to relieve the pressure.
Derek immediately took the order. The 10,000-man team was relatively small in number, and the area it was responsible for was not large, not even the main area.
It's just an area of seven or eight villages in a town, with several knights' manors inserted in the middle of the kingdom's territory.
However, the specific situation on the ground is unclear. It would be easier if most of them have not fallen yet.
When the meeting was over, he deliberately slowed down, and sure enough, Knight Croa quickly caught up with him.
"Derek, have you been appointed captain?"
Knight Croya was really shocked. He had thought that the opponent was not a thing in the pool before, but he did not expect to rise so quickly.
"Uncle Cloya, I'm very lucky, I just happened to catch it."
Derek remained humble, knowing that now was not the time to be complacent.
Knight Croya reached out and patted him on the shoulder, very happy: "Well done, if you need help, come to me at any time.
Take advantage of the opportunity to make more military exploits and try to keep your position as commander, which will benefit you in the future.
Well... pay attention to safety too. "
The two briefly chatted for a few words and soon separated.
After all, the war is coming and there is not much time for small talk.
When Derek returned to the camp, the first thing he did was to send Simon ahead with a group of cavalry.
He is about to leave the army, but there is no one to help with the investigation, so he has to do everything by himself.
A thousand-man team is already a complete military unit, capable of completing general tasks independently, and it also poses a huge challenge to the commander.
Fortunately, Derek has trained a group of good helpers, so he doesn't feel any difficulty.
Derek left the army and quickly rushed to the area he was responsible for.
The situation is better than expected. A small group of barbarians are already here.
The only town was still safe, but it was attacked by barbarians at the beginning and a group of militiamen died.
The surrounding villages also resisted vigorously. Although the barbarian troops killed some people and robbed some food and finance, they did not achieve much.
Of course, thanks to the king's call, the northern provinces were preparing for war all this time.
Militias are being trained everywhere. It is impossible to deal with the barbarian army, but small forces can resist one or two.
Derek camped directly outside the town and rejected the invitation of the local garrison officer.
He did not come here to hide, otherwise the town would be safe and he would not be far from stepping down.
Count Pereira's intention is very clear. He divides the work in different areas, advances step by step, and steadily relieves the siege of Iron Wall City.
If you really stay in the local area, you will die.
Simon also came back soon and brought the latest news.
"Captain, there are about four or five barbarian troops in the area we are responsible for, with a total of no more than 200 people.
They have attacked villages several times and are currently roaming around."
The cavalry led by Simon is very elite, and even touched the tail of the barbarians and circled the approximate range.
Derek quickly determined: "The purpose of the barbarians should be just to plunder and harass. When they receive the news of our arrival, they will probably withdraw soon.
The cavalry is ready, we will go ahead.
Adrian, you take command for the time being and lead the elite centurion team to march quickly."
Derrick boldly judged that the barbarian team might run away.
Even if the judgment was wrong, the knights who came and went freely were not in danger, and it was just a wasted trip.
