Chapter 57 Shit Pot
Roderick, the starting town of the West, covered the moon with dark clouds and slowly moved in the dark sky. The earth without a trace of moonlight was completely shrouded in the darkness, and the night was quiet and silenced.
Wallace's house was lit with many torches but still could not get to the dark and damp castle hall. Heid, wearing armor, sat in the main seat, gently stroking his meticulous mustache.
At the other end of the long table, the messenger who had been back from the Rhine family for two days and two nights knelt on one knee and reported the details of the trip to Hyde and Wallace.
"Oh?" stroked the ring symbolizing the supremacy of Wallace's family on the middle finger of his right hand. He raised his thick eyebrows with white frosted eyes and slowly walked to the messenger on the table. He asked in a hoarse voice: "So, the little boy from the Rhine family has made up his mind to resist to the end?"
"Yes, according to my observation, the Rhine family had already stockpiled a large amount of supplies, and a considerable number of mercenaries gathered in the territory, which seemed to have made sufficient preparations for this." The envoy lowered his head and respectfully reported what he had observed in the Rhine family territory: "The will of the lord and his subordinates were quite firm, and there was no possibility of using it for me..."
"That's it." Listening to the detailed report from his subordinates, Hyde and Wallace had no words on the surface, but a sharp light flashed in their eyes.
The Rhine family's will to resist and its ability to mobilize were beyond his imagination. Unexpectedly, if he neglected his strength to expand, such a threat would grow behind him. He let them gather and train the army easily, who knew what kind of resistance would be encountered in the battle after the autumn. If the army under his subordinates suffered a major loss in the battle to annex the Rhine family, it would have an impact on the desire to climb to the peak of power and make everyone crawl at their feet!
That situation is never allowed! It seems that it is necessary to find an excuse to send troops as soon as possible before the autumn harvest is completed to curb the Rhine family's gathering more power!
Thinking of this, Hyde, who was walking around his subordinates, had a cold and gloomy light leaping in his eyes. He stopped, bent down and patted his thick and thick palms gently on his shoulders, and asked, "Can you please help me?"
"Ah?" The messenger who was sent to the Rhine family looked up at Hyde, stunned, and was about to say something loyal to him, "please give me instructions" and "happy to serve" when a strange and crisp sound suddenly came into his ears.
‘Crack’ is the sound of a broken neck bone, accompanied by intense pain pouring into the mind like a tide. Before I could figure out what was going on, the world in the messenger's eyes had been distorted and blurred, and his consciousness gradually declined!
He looked coldly at his eyes bulging, and his mouth was accompanied by blood foam and his trachea was broken. His limbs were weak and hung down to death, and his face was confused. He departed his palm, and no body that had lost his vitality. He fell heavily on the floor with a "bang" sound.
"Sir, what happened?!" Hearing a strange sound, the Wallace family's guard chief Roger walked in through the side door and saw the messenger who came back from the Rhine family stuttering on the ground, twitching, and venting but not breathing. He was frozen there.
The moonlight shone into the hall from the skylight. Roger's heart thumped and saw the lord slowly turning his body. In the shadow of the light, his face with a knife-cutting and axe-chiseled look extremely dark.
Hyde said in a hoarse and cold voice: "Redin's family killed the envoys we sent without authorization, deliberately provoking disputes, and raising the level of mobilization within the territory. He notified all lords who were attached to gather troops. All of them must be assembled before the autumn harvest! The gathered troops will be set off today and wait for call at any time. The captured Rhine territory will be plundered for three days..."
If he can be the chief guard of the Wallace family, he will naturally not be a fool. Although the situation in front of him is not clear what kind of information the envoy brought back, it is obvious that Lord Hyde is going to tell a huge lie, not to deceive the Rhine family, as an opponent, but to find excuses to incite his own army and vassal nobles.
To force the crime of killing the envoy to Rhine's house, occupying a high level of morality, now put the wheat harvest aside, inspiring the fighting spirit of ordinary soldiers, and urging small and medium-sized nobles to gather to find excuses for sending troops in advance. Obviously, the information brought back by the envoy was not optimistic.
Hearing the Lord's order, Roger was silent for a moment and asked with some helplessness: "Where are the attendants who went on mission together?"
Flicking the ring symbolizing the supremacy of Wallace's family on his right middle finger, Hyde stared at his subordinates and replied in a cold voice that seemed to be without any human emotions: "Leave it to Bit and its people to deal with it, remember Rogge, no one will come back tonight... Do you understand?"
The midsummer sun shines on the huge rocks of the Rhine House castle, glowing with a white green light. The stone beast with fierce eyebrows and the four-leaf badge of the Rhine House at the entrance of the Guanmen Cave seemed to be gasping for breath.
There are a few poplar trees on the hill, and the thick leaves are turning into a burning light in the air. Countless cicadas are screaming bitterly, and the 'Chile' is annoyed.
Less than a week after the lively messenger left, the news that the Rhine family killed the Wallace family for no reason spread throughout the Wallace family and the territory of its followers. Closey arranged in the Roderick area to closely monitor the Wallace family's movements and quickly passed the news back. The blue eyes turned and understood what the other party was trying to pull. Closey cursed "dog shit" in anger and had to cheer up and responded with twelve points.
I thought that at least two months before the opponent sent troops, I could calmly arrange and mobilize more power as much as possible. Unexpectedly, the old fox of the Wallace family was so cruel and suddenly made such a move. Although I was not caught off guard, it also disrupted Clossi's original plan.
The conflict between the two families has been around for a long time, and Shit Basin is suddenly squeezing over, and Clossi may not be able to explain clearly. Besides, there is no time to get involved in those things now. There is no need to ask that side that must be about to send troops. No, the guys who want to go wild from their home territory may be on the way.
After looking down for a moment, he exchanged views with Al and others. Clossi decided to send a team to harass and monitor along the way. On the one hand, he disturbed the other party's rhythm and put pressure on him, and could not let the other party act as he pleased. On the other hand, he tried to delay the speed of the Wallace family army and gain more time for his own dispatch arrangements.
As much as possible, they set up traps to destroy roads that can be used for large troops to marching frequently and harasse the other party. This roughly explained the intention of combat. Before Closi could assign a mission, Vegeta took the initiative to stand out.
The main purpose of combat is to say that harassment and spy are exactly what he likes and his men who are good at climbing mountains. My family knows their own affairs. Although head-on combat may not necessarily be a cheaper one for elite regular troops, they are familiar with the methods of digging trenches and tripping. The life-saving skills of applying oil to the soles of their feet are much better than ordinary soldiers, so it is just right to do this.
Not to mention that as a new army, in order to gain a foothold in the Rhine family system, Vegeta and his men urgently needed a record of two-sized weight as a letter of vote. The resourceful and decisive "human and snake" naturally knew about this, so they took the initiative to answer the errand without waiting for Clossi's order.
In order to make himself look more like a pig-footed master, Clossi learned the protagonists of the time travel novels to grab Vegetalti and teach him classic tactics such as "What is the enemy advancing and I retreat, the enemy is tired and I fight, and the enemy is tired and I fight."
A small team of 100 people was mobile and flexible among the mountains and ridges, and there was a "human snake" commander to the army unswervingly, but special circumstances should also be prevented from occurring in order to prevent collapse caused by attacks by demon awakenings. In order to add some combat power to the vanguard team in case of emergency, Clossi ordered Maiya to lead a guard to join it.
In this way, mainly Vegeta's men and newly recruited mercenaries, plus the lord guards of more than 100 people led by Maiya, a team of 500 people quietly set out from the chaotic town of Leica under the cover of night and hid among Shanli, who was heading east along the road.
Vegeta and his party hiked out on the day and went out at night for two days. The next night, he finally met the vanguard team of Wallace's family. He sent scouts to be among the mountains. His men were completing their work skillfully and orderly.
The sparse stars on their heads were hanging high in distant places, scattered next to the warm full moon, and the light seemed even weaker. The clear and clear sky was like a light blue curtain. Straws of clouds like streamers covered the sky with oblique views.
Lying on the ground and looking at the familiar night sky, Vegeta's eyes gradually blurred...
A few years ago... On that morning when it was deeply engraved in Vegeta's backbone, my sister picked a green apple from her orchard with her own hands, and while she spoke her longing for a birthday gift, she was also giving it to her with the delicate dagger.
As night fell, Raymond's family began a grand banquet in the castle to celebrate the lord's angel-like lovely little daughter Jill, Raymond's tenth birthday.
Vegeta remembered it very clearly that it was a beautiful starry night, and there was no floating cloud in the sky. The deep blue sky was covered with diamond-like stars. As a loving brother, when he came back with the white fox he had just caught in the woods and wanted to act coquettishly, he was greeted not by his sister who ran away and rushed into his arms, but by the firelight in the sky and the killing scene filled with shrill shouts.
The castle and the adjacent town were burning with fire, and a large number of monsters with dark green skin and golden pupils were chasing humans everywhere, and they were dead everywhere to describe miserable corpses. Scareful crying and screaming and the laughter of a crazy and ferocious beast soared into the sky, and there was a disgusting and strong bloody smell floating in the air, as if it was the legendary hell.
Holding the steel sword in his hand tightly, Vegeta, whose heart was shrouded in some unknown premonition, kept killing the coming green demons, and rushing into the castle through a bloody road. He fought to his sister's room desperately. The scene in the room made Vegeta completely stiff in front of the door, and his blood gradually dyed red and green eyes.
