Start as Inherited Baroness

Chapter 216 Cavalry Assault

"Your Highness only gave us two hours to prepare. Each cavalryman should bring enough food for five days, and another bag of black beans to feed the horses.

When the time comes, we will follow the Sword Cavalry Regiment and don't run too fast.

Our war horses are all raised by ourselves. It is understandable that they are not strong enough and lack strength.

In addition, the other infantry will be dispatched by the commander of the Sword Corps.

However, each army has great autonomy and will not be mixed.

You will each arrange a deputy to restrain your subordinates, and then my fiefdom knight Aile will be in charge." Simon said again.

"Yes! My lord!" After hearing this, everyone thought about it for a while and responded one after another.

"Go and prepare, and assemble outside the tent in an hour and a half." Simon ordered solemnly.

"Yes!" The barons saluted and left the tent.

"My lord, gather all the cavalry, and call Aile and Phyllis." Simon ordered.

"Yes! My lord!" My lord, who was standing beside him, immediately took the order and left.

After a while, the knights entered the tent one after another, and Simon explained the whole story to them.

"Aile, after I leave, you must be careful and don't stand out.

If it really comes to the point where you have to fight, let the soldiers under the command of the barons attack, and try not to use the guards.

You must know how to hide your weaknesses. At this time, it won't hurt to stand back a little more..." Simon ordered.

"Yes! Lord Viscount, I understand! Don't worry!" Ai Lei responded solemnly.

"Phyllis, you will be Ai Lei's deputy and obey his command."

"Yes! Lord!"

"Okay, that's it, Mylan will come with me as my cavalry deputy.

If I encounter an accident on this trip, you will support Robert Hollen to inherit the title of Viscount of the Courageous Territory.

Before he comes of age, Sarit and Ai Lei will manage the army, and Mad will be in charge of government affairs." Simon made arrangements for the worst case scenario.

"Ah!? Lord Viscount! Let's not go!" Ai Lei was shocked when he heard this.

"Hey! Don't worry, I'm just preparing for the worst. I won't die that easily.

By the way, you have to take good care of my griffin. If anything goes wrong, I won't forgive you." Simon waved his hand and smiled.

"Yes! Sir! Nothing will go wrong." Airey said with some worry.

"Okay, everyone go and prepare." Simon nodded and ordered.

Then everyone walked out of the big tent.

In a flash, it was an hour and a half later.

All the cavalry under Simon's command had been assembled, and the war horses were fed with high-quality hay and black beans.

The barons did not dare to delay at this time, and came to the outside of the big tent as agreed.

There were more than 10 to 20 cavalry, and only seven or eight cavalry at the least. The total number of cavalry was close to 300, including 30 to 40 knights.

This force was actually not weak. It was easy to attack the army formation of ordinary regular light infantry of a thousand people.

After Simon reviewed the troops, he waved and shouted, "Let's go!"

"Yes!" Everyone responded and ran slowly towards Prince Fedi's camp.

Simon and his team were not the first to arrive. There were already seven or eight baron teams outside the camp.

Their cavalry strength was rather pitiful, with only forty or fifty cavalry at most.

The arrival of Simon and his team attracted the attention of these people, with different expressions.

"My Lord Viscount, please allow me to go with you." Willier approached with five or six cavalrymen, almost begging.

"Okay." Simon smiled and nodded.

Willier is now the most shabby and embarrassed among all the barons directly under the king's territory.

If he hadn't turned against his father-in-law, he could still be stronger, but borrowed power is not his own after all.

There will be a day to return it.

"Thank you, my Lord Viscount!"

After Willier thanked humbly, he took a few of his confidants and rode to the back of the team to stand still.

Not long after, the sound of horse hooves rang out, and Prince Fedi led his Sword Knights out of the camp.

He glanced at the lords, judged the number of cavalry, and was quite satisfied.

"Warriors! We are going here to wipe out the bandits who are about to invade the West Setian..."

Prince Fedi also gave a pre-war speech in a loud voice, which was both inspiring and eloquent.

Simon did not have such a talent, and he was a little envious at this time.

However, this thing also depends on practice, and the more experience you have, the easier it will be.

"Let's go! Wish us a triumphant return!" Prince Fedi finally said passionately.

"Triumph! Triumph!" The cavalry of the Sword Knights roared one after another, and the sound shook the world.

Simon and others also howled together, and the atmosphere was pretty good.

Then, the Sword Knights, as the vanguard, went south along the dirt road that the caravan had walked out of.

Simon and other stragglers followed closely.

He found that the direct barons were chasing after his team with their men, and refused to run a few more steps forward.

"What a bunch of idiots, I'll kill you all if I have a chance!" Simon muttered indignantly in his heart.

......

One day later, in the evening, Prince Fedi ordered to camp and rest by the river.

After running for a day, the men and horses were exhausted, and they would be exhausted if they didn't take a break.

After all, they only had one horse each, and the Sword Knights only had two horses each.

Fortunately, they didn't run fast, otherwise those who were on single horses wouldn't have been able to hold on until now.

Now they have reached the range of the forest valley, and the scenery of large plains and forests has gradually changed to valleys and hills.

The cavalry could only move forward along the valley road, and they could not display their skills at all.

This place was indeed not suitable for cavalry combat, and I didn't know what Prince Feddi was thinking.

Did they want the cavalry to dismount and fight? It was a big taboo in the military.

Although Simon was confused, he decided to take it one step at a time. After all, there were so many people here, and his words did not count.

There was strength in numbers. Before long, a series of simple camps were built, and the smoke from cooking slowly rose.

The cavalry brought yellow bread and put it in the pouches on their horses, but there were always some archers in the team who hunted prey while marching.

At this time, a fire was lit and roasted, and the fragrance was everywhere.

After a while, the sky was completely dark, and dots of starlight appeared in the sky, flickering.

"My Lord Viscount, I shot a red deer, and it's already roasted. Let's eat together."

Trodo walked outside Simon's tent and smiled.

"Okay! Hurry up and pack up. I brought some wine. Call everyone over. Let's have a drink.

Just to relieve boredom." Simon said with a smile. The two of them were as relaxed and familiar as old friends.

"Okay, I didn't expect to have such a good meal tonight. Thank you, sir!"

Trod and some cavalry on guard went to call the rest of the barons over.

Everyone was crowded in a big tent. At this time, they felt that everyone was one of their own.

Simon understood that this was because they had a common potential threat, Prince Ferdie.

Soon, some soldiers brought several large wooden plates with fragrant roasted red deer on them, which were divided into several parts.

The best piece of meat and roasted ribs were sent to Simon, and the others had a share according to their status.
