Working Prophet
Chapter 589 The missing army
"Didn't Morse send someone to look for it?" Miss Rabbit asked.
"He sent it, but he was beaten back by those tribes and clans on the way. Later, Sir Morse became anxious, and he brought two hundred soldiers to rush over, but he was shot in the arm by an arrow." Feige The knightly path of the Lola family.
"How could this be?" The female lord was a little unbelievable, "I remember not long ago that our side still had the upper hand and killed thousands of clan warriors. Aren't those savages only three or four thousand in total?
"How did you cut off the connection between the army and the logistics? Didn't Marquis Cullen realize that the supplies could not be delivered? Why not withdraw outside the mountain?"
Facing Ilea's series of questions, the knight of the Figuerola family just shook his head.
"I'm not too sure about the specific situation. I'm just here to convey Lord Hell's order. He hopes that all the families in the western region can send another group of people to complete the assembly in Yanxue City within 13 days.
"It's not just the Marquis, there are also many nobles who are missing this time, as well as the elite fighters of the major families. Every moment of delay will put them at more risk, so please be sure not to be late."
After the knight said this, he didn't even stay to drink water, and then left with others to convey the summons to other families.
Only the female lord was left standing there dumbfounded.
Miss Rabbit did not expect that she would leave again soon after returning to the green field.
But as a vassal of the Figuerola family, the monarch cannot retreat under any circumstances when he is in trouble.
So the female lord immediately gathered her men after she returned to Teacup Castle. This time she brought more than 2,000 people, including a full 400 guards and 1,600 militiamen.
Today's Arias family is different from the past. After several expansions, the guard has reached 800 people.
You know, these are 800 professional soldiers.
They are not engaged in production, but spend all day honing their killing skills. The salary paid to them every month is a large amount of money.
Even though she has escaped poverty and become rich, and won the tournament and made a lot of money, Miss Rabbit still feels a little painful.
But there is no way. As one of the few people who firmly believe that the Wing Tribe people will invade the continent of Bratis, the female lord has been preparing for this.
The expansion of the guard is the top priority.
In fact, the female lord's military expansion rate in the past year has made several neighbors feel uneasy.
When the Arias family first began to rise, the neighboring lords were also working hard to strengthen their own strength, but they soon felt that they were struggling.
After all, not everyone has the financial resources and determination to maintain a huge army, let alone in the Western Region where everyone is generally not wealthy.
Moreover, Ilea not only recruited guards, but also paid great attention to the training of the militia. She followed Li Yu's suggestion, standardized the training methods of the militia, set many goals for them from small to large, and provided them with generous rewards.
This stimulates the enthusiasm of those farmers, and the cost is that they spend more money.
But the effect was also very good. Even the former captain of the Royal Guard was surprised by their discipline and skill when he saw the militiamen.
Although he still couldn't keep up with the professional warriors, he was much better than the peasants who just ran around when the order was given.
In addition, their equipment is not bad, most of them are dressed in cloth armor, and a small number of them have leather armor and iron armor, which is much better than the militiamen under the command of other nobles.
Once this armed force was released there, it was no wonder that the surrounding lords couldn't sleep well.
But I couldn't afford to follow, so I had no choice but to form an alliance like crazy.
Even the female lord herself didn't realize that her existence helped nearby families to facilitate many marriages in just one year.
Ilea just felt that the frequency of her attending weddings had increased recently, and wondered if those herself had encountered a new method of plucking wool.
The female lord personally led the team and rushed to the outside of Yanxue City on the seventh day. At this time, the news of the disappearance of Marquis Cullen and others gradually spread in the western region.
The atmosphere in the city became tense. People from other nearby families also arrived, and the troops they brought were stationed outside the city.
The number of people does not seem to be very large, and most of them are militiamen, and their equipment is very simple.
One reason is that these small families have few fighters themselves, and they have sent out once before, and now it is even more difficult to gather people, generally there are only one or two hundred people.
Some even brought dozens of people over, but it could be seen that they were really anxious, because the last army included important figures from their families and elite soldiers.
Some of them even paid the compensation to the owner of the family. The only thing left in their minds now was to find the person as soon as possible.
Therefore, when they saw a well-equipped team of more than 2,000 people rushing outside the city, many people were shocked.
Especially when they found out that the leader of that troop was the dragon slaying hero and the new champion of the martial arts tournament, many nobles showed joy on their faces, feeling like they were looking forward to a savior.
Hells, the temporary city lord, even came out of the city to greet him personally.
"Ser Ilea."
"Master Hells." The female lord dismounted.
The last time the two met was a year ago. Because of the black dragon, Miss Rabbit initially suspected that Hells was in collusion with the Wing Clan, but later the truth came to light, and it was David who was behind it.
But Hells is obviously not a fuel-efficient guy, and this guy is also very thoughtful.
The female lord had an average impression of him, but seeing his solemn expression and his brows almost furrowed, she knew that he was really worried about the missing people.
"Didn't Prophet Merlin come this time?" Hals was a little disappointed that he couldn't see Li Yu in the crowd.
But soon I heard Ilea say again, "Don't worry, Mr. Prophet will show up at the right time."
"I can't rest easy now," Hells said with a wry smile, "My father and the others have been missing for more than ten days. According to Sir Morse, the supplies they carry can only last for five days.
"Even if the horse is killed, it will last another three to five days, so we must send reinforcements as soon as possible."
Miss Rabbit also became serious when she heard the words, "Are those tribes and clans so powerful that they can surround an army of nearly 10,000 people in the mountains and starve?"
"Their strength is not very good, and the previous defeat does not look like a show. Moreover, my father has always been cautious in using troops. Even if the opponent is weak, he will not take it lightly.
"In fact, he wrote to me two days before entering the mountain, saying that he did not plan to go any further, but Sir Morse said that the other nobles in the team were very enthusiastic at that time, and they were all asking my father to fight.
"After being rejected by my father, some people secretly led people into the mountain. My father was worried about their safety, so he led people to chase them in."
