Farming Road from Baron to Emperor

Chapter 127 Failure
The king of the Principality of Luma, Ezzir Asiri, was surprised to find that before his [-] army launched an offensive, the people in front retreated.Could it be that he was already defeated before he officially made a move?
"General Rashid, what's going on? Did 500 of the serf soldiers in front die? Why did they retreat? Could it be that our 500 army can't even afford [-] casualties? Ezil Staring angrily at Rashid Asiri.

"Your Majesty, please forgive me, but our soldiers have just finished training and haven't seen blood, so they are naturally timid." Rashid sat on the horse and bowed slightly to Ezil, "Your Majesty, I will send Soldiers who oversee the battle."

Rashid left the carriage and galloped towards the head of the attacking infantry regiment.

Under the leadership of Rashid, the army of the Principality of Luma quickly recovered its morale, and then attacked the town of Aton again. Unlike the last time, the serf soldiers who attacked this time were tall and armed with long spears. The supervising team, they drove the serf soldiers forward like pigs.

On the wall of the town of Aden, Baron Matthias Rossi watched the army of the Principality of Luma attack again, but this time his expression was much more relaxed.

"It seems that His Royal Highness is right. Although the Luma Principality's army is large in number, it is completely vulnerable. The [-] army attacked the city just now, but withdrew after hundreds of people died."

In front of the low city wall of Aden Town, serf soldiers rushed up like ants. Although they had some formations at the beginning, after encountering a few waves of arrow rain from the defenders, they suddenly became a mixed group.But compared to last time, they were more brave.

Hundreds of arrows flew obliquely upwards from the city wall, reached a high point, and were thrown down with the help of gravity.The town of Aton is like a hedgehog, shooting his quills in all directions.

Holding wooden spears, the serf soldiers in tattered linen clothes stared at the city wall numbly, as if they were a bunch of walking corpses moving forward.Suddenly a flying arrow came and pierced the chest of a serf soldier, nailing him to the ground.But the serf soldiers beside him continued to move forward as if they didn't see it.Because they knew that they would die in the future, and the soldiers of the supervising team killed hundreds of people just now.

The serf soldiers rushed to the city wall, they stepped on the shoulders of their comrades, their corpses climbed up, and their long wooden spears randomly poked at the soldiers on the city wall.The surrounding companions crowded them, as if they were going to press them against the city wall.

Suddenly, hot dung water poured down on their faces, and a stench emanated from their red and swollen faces. The serf soldiers under the city wall uttered mournful and miserable roars, which were immediately covered by the sound of boulders and rolling logs.

Several soldiers guarding the city lifted a two-meter-long rolling log, carried it up, and then threw it down heavily. The serf soldiers were densely packed underneath, and the heavy rolling log hit them hard. Above the head, the serf soldiers below the city wall lost consciousness in an instant.

Rashid was riding on a horse, looking forward anxiously. There were a total of four regiments attacking from four directions of the town in this attack, with a total of more than 1 people.

In order to see further, Rashid put his feet on the saddle, and the scene ahead became clearer.The low city wall below the small town of Aden was filled with densely packed dead bodies, and the serfs behind could even reach the soldiers on the city wall along the steps made by the corpses.

"Soon, soon. Persevere, as long as the city wall can be taken down, this town will be broken." Rashid secretly prayed in his heart, but things will not go according to his idea, although the serfs They have been able to rush up the city wall along the stairs made of corpses, but they have been killed by the soldiers defending the city. Although the spears of the supervisory team behind them are as terrifying as poisonous snakes, the town of Aden, which is full of corpses, is more like is hell.

One of the serf soldiers who attacked the city suddenly appeared to flee backwards, and the rest of the serf soldiers expanded from one person to a dozen, and then hundreds of people, as if they had received instructions. Finally, all the serf soldiers in the east began to retreat. escape.

"Order the commander of the Eastern Corps to send out a supervising team to kill all the serf soldiers who dare to escape. Now they are one step away from breaking the city. Now the soldiers guarding the city have no rolling logs and boulders. Find a way to let the soldiers hold on." Hold on." Rashid yelled at the herald beside him.

Rashid's order hadn't arrived yet, but the commander of the corps had already issued an order. The supervisors wearing armor and holding spears raised their spears. Every serf soldier who dared to escape backwards would be stabbed to death mercilessly.

Some timid serf soldiers ran in another direction, and some bolder ones even poked at the soldiers of the supervising team with wooden spears.How could hundreds of soldiers from the supervising team stop thousands of serf soldiers? They were nothing more than private soldiers of nobles or strong serfs recruited.

Baron Matthias Rossi looked towards the east with joy on his face. As long as the serf soldiers fled in one direction, a comprehensive rout would follow.Sure enough, after a while, the serf soldiers in all directions began to retreat.

He hurriedly ordered: "Soldiers, save your bows and arrows, and let these cowards die. Soldiers of the Aquinacos family, we have won. Today I will tell His Royal Highness the achievements of the battle. Your Highness will not treat brave warriors badly." our."

Seeing that the serf soldiers receded like the tide and retreated to a distance of thousands of meters from the town of Aton, Baron Matthias Rossi breathed a sigh of relief. He bent slightly, moved his stiff body, and then spoke to Balco beside him said: "This is only a temporary victory, we can't relax yet, remember to spread the news when the soldiers eat later.

We killed thousands of Luma Principality soldiers. If they break through the city, they will definitely massacre the city. Remember to spread this news to the entire town of Aton. "

"Yes, Baron Matthias Rossi, but you have been standing here for a long time, please go back and have a rest."

"I believe that His Royal Highness will come here after hearing the news. Our reinforcements are on the way. If we can defend the city, we will not only get rich rewards, but we will also become heroes of the Principality of Artem. Baron Matthias Rossi patted Balco on the shoulder, and continued to encourage: "Which brave and fearless hero would not be a nobleman with good morals, you have to work hard, Baron Barco."

"Thank you for your encouragement, Baron Matthias Rossi, we will definitely win." Balco's somewhat haggard face showed a hint of joy.

And Luma's army is another situation here.

King Ezzil looked at Rashid with his head down, and the four regiment commanders beside him with a gloomy expression.

"I need an explanation, Rashid, we have an army of [-] here, why can't we even take down a small town with a few hundred people? And our soldiers, why don't they even have a decent pair of leather armor, Or is it a wooden spear?"

Rashid lowered his head and kept silent, and the surrounding was even more deadly. The serf soldier's numb face seemed to have a flash of revenge, and then disappeared.They sat silently in the field, nibbling on cold black bread, which was as hard as a stone without soaking in hot water.

Camillo Baines stood aside somewhat rejoicingly. Fortunately, he didn't lead the troops to attack the city just now, otherwise he would be the one who stood there and was scolded.Hearing the king's inquiry, he knew very well that for the money sent by His Majesty the king, let alone leather armor and spears, it would take a lot of effort to put together a suit of clothes for each of these serf soldiers.So they gave each of the serfs a wooden spear, a good sharp wooden spear, and just spent all the money His Majesty sent down.

He knew that it couldn't go on like this. Although it itself had no hope of winning this war, if it couldn't even take down a small town with a few hundred people, the Principality of Luma would be ashamed. The most important thing was Unfortunately, the relationship between their Baines family and Earl Geithner may be about to change.

He hurriedly stood up, approached the king, and whispered a few words.

After a few words, the gloomy face of the king of the Principality of Luma brightened visible to the naked eye. He looked at Rashid in front of him and said: "But the first failure is understandable considering that the soldiers have not seen blood, but This kind of thing must not happen a second time. Go down and count the soldiers lost in this war.

In addition, he ordered the cooks to cook, and lighted bonfires at night to keep the soldiers in linen singles warm, in short, to find a way to boost their morale. "

"Yes, Your Majesty, I'm going right away." Rashid's eyes lit up and he bowed forward.

Iris Territory, Iron Town
Charles sat on a chair in the government affairs hall, looked at the Baron Patel who looked like a balloon, and ordered: "Baron Patel, you ordered the blacksmith Lalu to make four thousand spears, and everything depends on time. "

"Master, what do you mean?" Baron Patel looked at Charles suspiciously.

"Make these spears in the fastest time, and the forging of farm tools can be put aside. The eldest prince Andres came to Tulip City two days ago and purchased a batch of spears from me." Charles He smiled slightly, and then continued: "But these spears are for the serfs, and the army of the Principality of Luma has already arrived, so these spears must be produced in a hurry, according to the standards of farm tools. Just do it."

"At your command, Master Charles."

"How about land reclamation and spring planting now?"

"Master, the land to be reclaimed is now spreading towards the cherry blossom collar and the calla lily collar. In fact, since Mayor Sorel and Butler Loki arrived at the calla lily collar and the cherry blossom collar respectively, the speed of reclamation has slowed down. It's faster. Now the pioneers who are reclaiming in the north go to the town of cherry blossoms to spend the night, while those in the south go to the town of calla lilies in the calla lilies."

Baron Patel bowed slightly and smiled at Charles. "Spring planting is also proceeding smoothly. I believe that the newly reclaimed land this year will be able to do well, but the grain harvest may not be good."

"Cosmos serfs, how are they doing now?"

"Young master, with your kindness shining, it is their fault if these serfs are not sensible anymore. These cosmos serfs are all eager to open up wasteland towards the calla lilies in the south, but the serfs working in the iron mines There were two disaffected protests."

Charles touched the sharp and hard stubble under his mouth, but he ignored the group of miners.It is understandable that they are not enough to cause riots. After all, their partners have lived a prosperous life, but they are still waiting to die in the dark mine.It can't go on like this, or there will be bigger riots sooner or later. Charles is not worried about any troubles, but it is really heartbreaking that so many labors are wasted for no reason.

"Promulgate a decree to the serfs of Cosmos that if they have relatives working in the mines, they can enjoy half of the land they cultivated, which is the same treatment as the regular Iris leaders."

"Yes, Master Charles, I'll give you my orders now." Baron Patel's chubby face showed a look of admiration. Naturally, a miner with a family will stop making trouble. If it's a lonely serf, he won't be afraid. Because there will be countless widows vying to marry them. After all, who would not be tempted by the land picked up for nothing?

Just as the fierce battle was going on in the town of Aton in the south, the iris collar in the north was developing rapidly. Because no troops were sent out, the spring rush in various places was not delayed, and the seeds were planted in geography without delay.

The land reclamation operation in Iron Town is in full swing.People who were originally robbers, rioters, and slaves gathered in the north and south directions of the steel town, holding iron farm tools issued by the government affairs department in their hands, and were declaring war on nature. They took hoes and pointed at the dense forest. Attack and expand the human gathering place.

The blacksmith's shop in the steel town was full of smoke, and the giant wood that had been cut down and transported was divided into several pieces, then burned into charcoal, and transported to the blacksmith's shop, followed by iron ore, which was extracted from the deep mine. After mining, the cosmos serfs wearing linen singles were transported from the mine to the steel town, and then entered the furnace to be made into spears one by one.

The newly established Cherry Blossom Town and Alocasia Flower Town were slowly established and developed under the leadership of Sorel and Rocky respectively. The towns relied on the castle, with wooden fences as walls, and the former farmhouses as small towns. houses and inhabitants of the town.

The Knights and Infantry, which had just expanded their troops in winter, stepped up their training. They sweated and trained hard for the next military drill. Every few days, they will go to other small towns to change defenses. Naturally, they have a lot of experience in marching, and their discipline is unmatched by other armies.

Charles also decided to return to Tulip City, because Fina wrote him a letter two days ago, saying: If he doesn't go back, then she will come, and Charles has stayed in Steel Town enough, he and Pei After Baron Tell finished his explanation, he set off on his way home
