MTL - Heroes of Silver Moon-Chapter 606 : cavalry battalion
"Hmm..." Simon was a little speechless after hearing Roque's intention to come.
No, brother, we are at war! You still want me to help you suppress bandits!
"Master Rock, don't you think this proposal is a little too much?" Simon couldn't help complaining.
"Is it too much?" Rock said with a confident smile, "The reason why the Marquis provoked a private war is to establish his authority in the southern border?"
"But the overlord of the southern region has always been not only a title, but also a responsibility. If the lord of the southern region can't see what the Marquis has done, how can he recognize your authority?"
There has always been a direct ratio between giving and rewarding. The reason why the lords of the southern border obey the Rosen family is not entirely because of the strength of the Rosen family.
When encountering difficulties, the Rosen family must also be the first to go...
If the new leader wanted to become the new overlord, he had to be recognized by those lords for his ability.
Touching his chin, Simon showed a thoughtful look.
What this guy said made sense, but he was speechless. If he wanted to establish authority, he should indeed bear part of the responsibility.
"Well, since I provoked a private war that caused the people in the southern border to be robbed by bandits, then I will naturally take the responsibility."
Simon looked at the officers in the camp, and called out by name: "Siegel!"
After two years in the quilt factory, Siegel, who was much calmer, walked out of the queue, drew out his long sword and stuck it on the ground, and knelt down in front of Simon.
"At your command, my lord!" Siegel looked at Simon with piercing eyes.
During the two years in the quilt factory, he certainly felt sorry for himself, thinking that Simon had given up on him.
However, as time went by, his temper was gradually tempered, he stopped complaining and giving up on himself, but concentrated on doing his job well.
Isn't it also a kind of contribution to sew quilts for the new army?
Now being activated again, it ignited a flame in his heart...It turned out that his friends never gave up on him!
"You will be the commander of the cavalry battalion. Go and wipe out the bandits who looted the people. Don't let me down." Simon looked at this old friend calmly.
Although Siegel is now only the deputy battalion commander of the cavalry battalion, the battalion commander of the cavalry battalion is concurrently held by Harris, as is the head of the garrison regiment. He holds too many positions concurrently.
As long as Siegel makes contributions, Simon can immediately promote him to battalion commander.
The battalion commander of the cavalry battalion was comparable to the commander of the infantry regiment in terms of status, and he could bridge the two-year gap in no time.
The current new law leader is only four infantry regiments, and the guard regiment is still headed by Harris.
The status of the commander of the cavalry battalion can be imagined...
"I will live up to my expectations, my lord!" Siegel was also excited, and understood what Simon meant.
Taking the cavalry battalion to suppress the bandits is simply giving him credit for nothing, the boss is really optimistic about him......
Putting the long sword stuck in the ground back into the scabbard, Siegel strode out of the tent.
"Thank you for your generosity, my lord, it's just..."
Rock was hesitant to speak, and said: "I have also seen your cavalry unit. Although they advance and retreat, they are not many in number. The horses are not particularly strong, and the soldiers and horses are not equipped with leather armor. Are there some... ..."
All I have to say is that the people you sent don't seem to be particularly good at it.
Whether the cavalry is good or not can be seen at a glance from the horses. The horses in the cavalry battalion of the new army are all ordinary war horses.
Coupled with the fact that there were only three hundred people and none of them were equipped with armor, it was inevitable that Rock would have doubts.
"Don't worry about it, I think you should worry about how your Rosen family will fight! I've been waiting here for three days, should I continue to wait?" Simon seemed a little dissatisfied.
This group of people really had a lot of troubles, they were fighting, and they ran over to ask him to help suppress the bandits, but they didn't think they were strong enough.
Should he tell this group of people that the cavalry battalions of the new army are all issued with revolvers, and that there is no need for close combat at all, and the opponent can be dealt with from a hundred meters away?
"Okay, I'll pass it on to Grandpa."
Rock is also helpless, well, although the number of people sent is not enough, it seems understandable considering that the marquis's strength is not much.
The most important thing now is to urge the allies to join the battle as soon as possible, so as to keep them waiting. Even if this battle is won, the Rosen family will probably be laughed at.
…
The convoy was driving on the road. Judging from the coat of arms on the carriage, it seemed to be the convoy of the Rosen family, but the robbers ambushing on the hillsides on both sides obviously didn't know the coat of arms of the nobles.
All they know is that the convoy below, which looks like a nobleman, has only a dozen guards at the moment. It is a big piece of fat, and no one can be richer than the nobleman.
"Boss, do you want to fight?" A little boss asked.
"No hurry, are you sure there is no noble army nearby?" the bandit boss asked cautiously.
Nobles are not fools. There are quite a few robber gangs who were killed by such fishing law enforcement.
It looks like a piece of fat, you don't know how many people they have arranged around...
"It's okay, isn't there a war recently? The army of the nobles and lords are doing this themselves, how can they have time to take care of us?" The little boss laughed.
The more they fought, the less people cared about them, but compared to what the noble private army did, these real robbers seemed to pale in comparison.
Every time there is a war, 80% of the looting is done by the private army of the nobles. Of course, they will definitely be counted on them in the end.
It has to be said that this kind of aboveboard looting is indeed quite enviable to the robbers.
It's a pity that they lack a noble name...
"Made, it's done! Maybe I can play with a noble lady!" The bandit boss felt ruthless in his heart, and then asked his subordinates to prepare to attack.
Although the nobles are not easy to mess with, they themselves were cornered by the nobles, so they turned around and became robbers.
Originally, it was a business with the head pinned to the waistband of the trousers, and it was a pleasure to be afraid of revenge from the aristocrats.
Those aristocratic ladies with delicate skin and tender flesh are much more enjoyable than country peasant women.
…
In the convoy, the knights in chain mail were carefully guarding their surroundings. During the battle, all monsters dared to venture outside, so they couldn't help but relax their vigilance.
Even if they are members of the Rosen family, they may not be foolproof.
"Kill!" The robbers emerged from both sides of the hillside.
"Damn!" The knight was terrified and exclaimed, "Protect Madam and Miss!"
"Haha~www.novelbuddy.com~ There are indeed noble women, please pay attention to me, don't get hurt!" The bandit boss shouted excitedly.
Judging from the reaction of these guards, there must be no ambush nearby. If so, he is afraid of an egg!
There are one or two hundred people on their side, even if the noble guards are well-equipped and have better fighting qualities, they will definitely not be able to make up for this gap.
"Hold on, Lord Earl will send reinforcements over!" Seeing that his companion was about to run away, the leading knight hurriedly said.
I have to say that this trick really worked. Hearing this, the shaky guards formed a circular defense to protect the carriage.
But the leading knight was bitter in his heart. Even he himself didn't believe what he said. The Rosen family was facing a big battle recently, and they would only shrink their troops. How could they send reinforcements!
Moreover, not to mention the earl's ability to foretell, even if he knew about it, the reinforcements he sent might not be able to arrive in a short time.
The guards struggled against the bandits. Although the overall quality was higher, the bandits made good use of their numbers, making it difficult for them to parry.
Moreover, we have to prevent the robbers from attacking the carriage. If anyone inside is injured, they will die!
Almost in an instant, the guards were on the verge of being defeated. The knight in the lead slaughtered all directions and dealt with one robber after another, but despair emerged in his heart uncontrollably.
It's really hard to turn the tide of the war by one's own strength. Could it be that today, he will let the family bear the name of shame?
There is no more shameful name than being unable to complete the task assigned by the lord, causing the lord's family to be hurt or even humiliated.
Boom boom boom! At this moment, the earth trembled...
