The Lord of the Oasis

Chapter 494: The scorching front line

Views:

Not to mention Lionheart City, even in their manors and castles, there are also a large number of elite private troops.

They can't wait to see the Duke of Lion Cameron and his second son, Baron Kant, fight each other and lose both. Maybe they will make a secret move in the end, so that the father and son will "die together".

They don't want the family of the Lion Duke Cameron, who has gradually begun to decline, to become strong again.

In the end, under the persecution of the Duke of Lion Cameron, the four earls and two viscounts only agreed to provide supplies to the troops that went north to resist the invasion of the North County nobles' coalition forces. The supplies were sent from Lionheart City, and the other two The Viscount who has no power in Lionheart City needs to pay the four Earls corresponding money.

The four earls and two viscounts, the ultimate goal of the six top nobles in the South County, is just to hope that Cameron, the Duke of the Lion, can properly consume each other's strength with his second son, Baron Kant.

Grand Duke Cameron, Duke of the Lion, was able to rise to the throne in the war and repel the invasion of the Silver Plate Kingdom when the previous Duke of the Lion died. Naturally, it was not an easy person. He naturally saw through it easily. Based on the calculations of the six top nobles from South County, a corresponding countermeasure was immediately formulated.

It is precisely because of the countermeasures of Cameron, the Duke of the Lion, that many small and medium-sized nobles from the South County will gather in Fort Selia at this time.

For the Duke of Lions, the North County Territory was not really under his control. Promising it to the small and medium-sized nobles in the South County Territory was just going along with the flow, and there was no real loss for him.

It was precisely because of this that Earl Rowan Rhys, who was the top nobleman in the South County, sent a great knight to inform the many small and medium nobles in the South County who were sitting in Fort Selia at this time: They are not going to give supplies!

With the assistance of the Nanjun leader's rebel army, it just gave the six top nobles of the Nanjun leader an excuse not to support the supply of the Nanjun leader's coalition army.

They even put forward a condition that they could know the answer with their asses. This is naturally in response to the possible anger of the Duke of Lion Cameron.

"Look, it's not that we don't continue to provide them with supplies, it's that they themselves said no!"

The lines are all ready.

The shamelessness of nobles is always hidden under such decent excuses, and the six top nobles from the South County are playing very well.

In fact, they hope that the small and medium-sized nobles in the South County will fail, and it is best to die.

In this way, Baron Kant's troops can go south smoothly and persecute the Lion Castle of Duke Cameron of the Lion.

In addition, they can secretly embezzle the territories of the small and medium-sized nobles in the South County Territory. The territory of the South County is a truly fertile territory. Otherwise, the area of the South County is smaller than that of the North County and the East County. How can it support so many powerful nobles.

Although the territory of the small and medium-sized nobles of Nanjun was occupied by the rebel army of Nanjun at this time, the mere miscellaneous soldiers of the rebel army of Nanjun were not taken seriously by the six top nobles of Nanjun.

In the meeting hall of the command group in Fort Selia, the nobles heard Baron Cosmo Henry's words, and the atmosphere became even more serious.

"We need a quick fix!"

Immediately, a noble member of the command group spoke up.

"That's right, even though we only have three heavy cavalry regiments left at this time, it's extremely easy to crush the bastards of the Beijun leader coalition army!"

None of the members of the command group present, the nobles of the southern county, had any doubt that they could easily defeat the coalition of the nobles of the northern county.

What they were worried about was that the coalition forces of the nobles of the North County huddled in Marsburg, held on to the fortress, and refused to fight directly with them.

That's what they want to discuss.

Because their army, 15,000 soldiers, are all heavy cavalry.

After all, the heavy cavalry of the Lion Principality dominates all human nations, and all the nobles of the Lion Principality are proud of it. Their elite private soldiers are naturally made into heavy cavalry. On the vast plain of Nanjun Territory, the power of heavy cavalry can also be maximized.

However, it is not an easy task for heavy cavalry to attack the city. This means that they need to give up their advantages, at least before blasting the gate of the castle, their soldiers need to turn into infantry.

This will undoubtedly cause great casualties, which will far exceed the losses suffered by directly destroying other regiments with heavy cavalry charges.

Now these three heavy cavalry regiments are the members of these command regiments, and the nobles of the South County Territory are the foundation for their resurgence. Naturally, they don't want them to lose too much.

If time is sufficient, they can also manufacture a large number of siege equipment to reduce the casualties of soldiers.

But now due to supply constraints, they only have two weeks. If they can't capture Marsburg, fifty miles to the north, in two weeks, in order not to starve to death, they probably can only turn into robbers to snatch other South County territories. There are no manors of nobles who stand on the same front as them.

Because at that time, the great knights sent by Earl Rowan Rhys had already returned to Lionheart City with the news of their rejection. They wanted Lionheart City to support supplies, but they couldn't do it.

The nobles in the command group were helpless, all frowning and thinking hard about countermeasures.

Most importantly, they don't want to lose too many troops.

Otherwise, they think that even if they forcefully push Masburg at this time, they can still win.

At this moment, the door of the conference room of the command group was knocked quickly.

This made the members of the command group present, the nobles of the South County, all show displeasure.

In the past few days, bad news came one after another. The current situation is already very serious. So many of them have not yet thought of an effective way to attack the city, and they can pay the lowest possible price to capture Marsburg.

The knock on the door was so urgent that the members of the command group knew that it was another big bad news.

Viscount Kami gracefully picked up the exquisite pottery water glass on the long meeting table made of precious wood in front of him, took a sip slowly and put in a few pieces of date palm sugar produced in the Sentinel Oasis Drehem Sugar Workshop Fresh goat milk, this is the sound.

"Sir Jimmy Waters, please open the door and let our knights in."

Following Viscount Kami's words, all the nobles' previously frowning expressions changed into relaxed and casual gentlemen.

Sir Jimmy Waters, sitting in the last seat to the right of Viscount Cammy. Among all the noble members of the command group present, his strength was the weakest. Even Baron Harry Kendy and the other five nobles who had suffered heavy losses were far stronger than him at this time.

Meanwhile, Sir Jimmy Waters was closest to the gate.

The status of nobles is measured by their strength. Even if it is a jazz, as long as his strength is strong enough, even the earl will show humility for him.

Sir Jimmy Waters naturally understood this truth. Among the many nobles present, he was the weakest, so he should naturally open the door.

You can't let other nobles who are stronger than him do this, right

Sir Jimmy Waters opened the door of the meeting room, and a terrified knight attendant completely forgot the etiquette of respectful salutes and greetings when facing them nobles. He rushed in directly, speaking in a panic shouted loudly.

"It's not good! It's not good!"

"After setting off from Marsburg Castle, the coalition forces of the nobles from the North County Territory approached our Celia Fort!"

"There are too many enemies, much more than us!"

This knight attendant was in charge of scouting news near Masburg. When he saw Fatis leading many troops out of Masburg and marching towards Selia Fort, he rushed back immediately. During that time, he even forgot to go back to the army, and reported the news to his captain first.
