People in the Middle Ages, draw cards to get promoted

For the first time, the eighty hussars with bright armor and high spirits were gathered together, riding tall horses with helmets and crowns, and lined up neatly.

Behind the team, there is also a servant army provided by Muller.

Their role is to provide hussars with rotating mounts, lances, food, water and other supplies, as well as light cavalry and falconers who act as scouts.

Usually, they don't get this kind of treatment.

But as Port Ella got back on track and became a hen that kept laying golden eggs, Lothar had enough confidence to provide strong support for the Hussars.

The benefits brought to Lothar by regaining the port of Ella and Alandel are extremely huge, making him essentially the most powerful lord in Transjordan, able to stand up to Leonard.

Instead of the verbal earl before.

Jeanne held the rein with one hand and urged "Grape" to walk in front of the hussars, and they also responded with reverence and love.

In the minds of the hussars, Jeanne is a Valkyrie who can bring them infinite victory and glory, and she is full of sacred aura.

"Bring water and dry food, we will set off immediately."

A group of cavalry rushed out of the city under the eyes of the residents in the city, who were either surprised or adored.

The drawbridge was raised by the peasants and soldiers on the tower, turning the winch.

Jeanna looked up at the city wall, the towering Siegfried Tower, with such a weapon for defending the city, I don't know how many people are needed to conquer this easy-to-attack and difficult-to-defend harbor city that Lothar said.

"If this is leading a snake out of its hole, I've already come out now, so it depends on what kind of plan you have."

The situation is much worse than Jeanna imagined.

Not long after their army appeared in the wilderness, a falcon appeared above their heads. It was like a tarsus maggot, hovering above the team's head.

"Falconer, can you shoot it down?"

The falconer spoke blunt Gaul and replied, "Yes."

Accompanied by a chirp.

The eagle on the shoulder of the falconer flew out like a sharp arrow, trying to chase the enemy's falcon.

But soon, with human panic, his falcon swooped down from the sky and landed on the falconer's calf-skin-padded arm again.

"what happened?"

Jeanne frowned.

The falconer's face was very ugly. He stretched out a finger and pointed to the sky: "Look, look there."

In the clouds, one falcon after another appeared.

More than a dozen falcons hovered over the team, as if in the desert, staring at the vultures who were about to die.

"It seems that the scale of the enemy's dispatch this time is not small."

Jeanna looked slightly cold.

Bows and arrows would definitely not be able to hurt these raptors hovering in mid-air, but her Holy Spear was fine, as it could be used against falcons, just like cannons against mosquitoes.

Too bad!

Although she is not like Lothar, she will be exhausted with just one holy spear, but she can only use it three times in a row at most, and the enemy's falcons are obviously more than this number.

"Now, we have to be completely exposed to the enemy's vision."

No matter how powerful a commander is, his every move will be exposed to the opponent's eyes, and it will feel tricky.

It's like in a real-time strategy game, the opponent opens the full map.

Your side is still producing cattle for mining, but the opposite side has sold the base to mobilize troops and produced tanks. The intelligence is not equal, and the consequences will undoubtedly be devastating.

"Then what should we do now?"

Jean Na thought for a moment, then said: "Continue, we will still support the border fort attacked by the enemy as planned."

As Coors said before, Lothar was looking forward to Rauf coming to attack Port Ella.

Not only because they are unwilling to bear the crime of tearing up the armistice agreement, but also because the port of Aila is no longer a place that is easy to attack and difficult to defend after owning the Siegfried Tower.

"Heh, if the impaler really intends to take the opportunity to attack Port Aila, I'm sure your lord will be very happy to see it happen."

...

In the earl's mansion in Ella port.

cough--

"Water, give me some water."

When Lothar woke up, he felt his throat dry.

Banruo brought a glass made by Marles and brought him sweet well water.

"How long have I slept?"

Lothar drank the water in one gulp.

The mental power has increased by another three points. Now, he has officially broken through the fifty-point mental power mark, and he still has twelve attribute points in his hand.

"one day one Night."

"so long?"

Lothar was a little surprised.

"Traces of the enemy have been found on the border again. At least a hundred elite cavalry have invaded?"

"Jeanna has led all the hussars left in the city to set off?"

He frowned.

He didn't have any worries about this. Jean Na's command ability was better than him. Even if there were many enemies, he believed that Jean Na could win the battle, and no matter how bad she was, she would be able to retreat unscathed.

He was just a little puzzled as to what Rauf's plan was.

"Banruo, help me put on the armor and go to the meeting hall. I have to ask Hans what's going on now."

To the chamber.

Hearing the current situation reported by Hans, he couldn't help but startled: "Because I lost the air supremacy, so I can't get any intelligence from the outside world at all?"

For a while, Lothar was a little hard to imagine that in the Middle Ages, he would suffer from the loss of air supremacy.

The number of falconers that Muller helped Lothar recruit was rare. After all, this profession was bound to Zoroastrianism, and although Lothar did not persecute Zoroastrians, he definitely did not have any preferential treatment.

"Where are the scouts sent out?"

Hans shook his head: "No news either."

Pepin, who was temporarily serving as the sheriff of Port Ella, guessed: "It couldn't be that it was attacked by a falcon, right? That kind of large raptor has claws as sharp as steel knives, so it's hard to deal with."

"It's not that exaggerated. It's not like we haven't dealt with Saracens' falcons before."

Lothar shook his head and said: "Our scouts are all fully armed cavalry with full armor, and they will not be afraid of their sharp beaks and claws at all."

He thought for a moment, then sneered, "It seems that our neighbor has made up his mind to make a big move."

If it's just a border conflict, Rauf obviously doesn't need to intercept the scouts sent by Port Ayla.

"Notice that the Port of Ella has entered a state of wartime martial law. The Earl's Guard and the Eagle Banner Brigade will patrol the city. Anyone who is suspicious will be arrested and locked up. We must beware of enemy spies causing riots in the city. "

"The Black Eagle Banner Squad and the Armenian mercenaries are immediately deployed on the city wall, and the city gate is the most important thing."

Hans frowned and said, "My lord, Ms. Jeanne may still be counting on our support."

Lothar shook his head and said: "The enemy is obviously not good this time. The one led by Jeanna is almost all the mobile forces in our hands. How can it be our turn to support her?"

"Besides, the scouts can't even deliver the letter. Who knows where Rang Na needs our support? When will we dispatch?"

He snorted coldly: "Let's wait and see what kind of idea this Rauf is up to."

soon.

Lothar knew exactly what the enemy was up to.

A scout covered in blood rushed into the city.

He shouted: "The heathen army is coming, they sent manticore beasts, all my companions were devoured by these evil beasts, I want to see the Earl!"

The news of the enemy's army pressing down on the border made Port Ella fall into a state of panic.

The brutal name of Rauf the Impaler is well known, especially those converts, who are sure that once the city is broken, they will all be liquidated.

At this time, Lothar also logically formed a group of militias composed of converts to help defend the city wall.

Lothar ascends the city wall, the very top of Siegfried Tower.

He carefully moved the ballista aimed at the shooting hole away, put his hands on the edge of the window, and looked into the distance.

I saw flags raised high on the horizon in the distance.

Smoke billows.

Hundreds of fully armed cavalry are forming a neat line and moving forward slowly.

Followed by them were elite infantrymen wearing all kinds of armor, and there were so many civilian conscripts at a glance.

In a more distant place, it can even be clearly seen that a supply vehicle is slowly transporting all kinds of siege equipment, as well as food and supplies approaching.

Lothar murmured in a low voice: "Is it really going to attack Port Ella, and make such a gesture, just this thing?"
