Chapter 575: Endurance King Elad
Chapter 575: Endurance King Elad
While Horn and the two leaders of the Thousand Valleys of Meliati were having a secret conversation, the King's Avenue of Feiliu Castle, a hundred miles away, was crowded with priests and soldiers who fled in the night.
As the defeated soldiers of the Imperial Company entered the city to rob, the news that Prince Kongdai was defeated and beheaded quickly spread throughout Feiliu Castle.
Although everyone thought it was ridiculous, as the news about the defeated soldiers became more detailed and true, they had to face reality.
The group of dung collectors and pig riders joined forces to defeat the noble Knights of the Imperial Order.
During this period, the knights regrouped and tried to fight back.
However, several senior cavalry officers of the Imperial Order Company were either missing or killed in battle, and the morale of the ordinary knights was extremely low. Whenever they gathered, they were quickly attacked by the North Mound Mountain Knights and were immediately defeated.
Given the violent tempers of these mountain folks, they would never do what Horn did and accept the knights' surrender and prisoners.
What prisoners? No one surrendered, they were all killed in battle.
Of the remaining four or five hundred knights, more than half were killed or captured by the mountain knights, and the remaining half, due to their high mobility or without stopping to plunder, basically fled the vicinity of Feiliu Castle by land overnight.
Of course, some of the mountain riders stopped at the roadside in advance and checked the passing fugitives one by one.
If they were ordinary citizens or small businessmen, these mountain riders would interrogate them, extort some money from them and then let them go.
But if you find out that they are priests or noble knights, then I'm sorry, you have to turn your horse around, turn your carriage around, and follow them back to Feiliu Castle obediently.
"You are so careless to walk with two pregnant women at night." A mountain knight patted his belly after stuffing a few dinars into his belt. "You are afraid of witches, but you are not afraid of causing your wife and brother's wife to have miscarriages?"
"That witch has a witch disease. If it's contagious, my family will be extinct." The farmer with a straw hat had a bitter look on his face. "Besides, there are those soldiers. I'm going to live in the countryside. If everything is fine, I'll come back."
"Okay, okay, go ahead." The mountain knight waved his hand impatiently, and the carriage successfully passed the low bridge over the river.
After crossing the bridge and driving some distance, the farmer drove the carriage to the side of the road. Soon, a wet old man came over, pushing aside the bushes.
"They don't suspect anything, do they?" Lacunio asked the farmer while taking off his wet clothes, pushing his hair back.
Although the farmer's face had turned black from drinking potions and his eyebrows and hair had been shaved short, the outline of Ellard's face could still be vaguely seen.
"No, but we have to leave quickly. If they find out that I'm not dead, we probably won't be able to leave." Elad opened the car door to let the two anxious mistresses know.
When they were wanted earlier, they discovered that the Saviors and the Mountain Knights thought Ellard was dead, which was why the two of them secretly escaped from Feiliu Castle.
In the Battle of Cheese Bay, Elad fought hard and then played dead after falling off his horse.
When the Salvation Army infantry went to besiege Prince Condé, he exchanged clothes with the knight next to him, took the opportunity to steal an ownerless warhorse, and escaped from Cheese Bay.
After disguising himself, Elad ran to the vicinity of Feiliu Castle, preparing to secretly pick up Prince Kongdai's two pregnant mistresses who were placed on a farm outside the city.
These are the direct descendants of the last two Plantagenet dynasties, and their value is definitely more than those hundreds of gold pounds.
However, just as he ran to the neighborhood, he met Lacunio who was driving away with his two mistresses.
What he can think of, Lacuno can think of as well.
After discovering that Prince Condé had fallen, Lacuno immediately concluded that this battle was definitely unwinnable, so he immediately fled the battlefield in advance and ran to the farm to pick up two backups of the Plantagenet Dynasty.
There was nothing that could be done about the big one, but the bloodline of the Goldfinch family had to continue. Lacunio had repeatedly urged Prince Condé to give birth to offspring just for this day.
With his breathing method, he still has another 20 to 30 years to live, and it won't be a problem for him to raise two more children. The only problem is that these two children don't have as good resources as Prince Kongdai.
Their father had already lost all of the Goldfinch family's wealth in the Battle of Cheese Bay, but with their noble family background, these two children could at least get themselves a baron or a knight.
The demise of the Plantagenet Dynasty was destiny, just like the farmer who was able to rise up and conquer the Thousand Valleys overnight. If this is not in your destiny, don't force it. The consequence is what we have today as Prince Kongdai.
In the midst of grief, Lacuno has completely let go of everything and does not ask for anything else but to be able to keep the Canary Family going.
"What should we do next? Should we avenge the prince?"
"Let's go to the Kingdom of France next. I think the people of France will be very interested in the bloodline of the Goldfinch family." Lacunio shook his head. "I'm old, and you're a defeated general. How can you take revenge? But it doesn't matter. Someone will help us take revenge."
Lacunio closed the door and continued on his journey with Elad. The carriage drove along the silver-white avenue under the moonlight, with occasional fleeing knights running by on both sides.
"Who?" Ellard asked curiously, shaking the reins.
"church."
"church?"
Glancing at him, Lacunio patiently explained, "The land of Thousand River Valley was originally the hidden treasury that the Kingdom of Leia gave to the church. Now the church is inevitably split between the north and the south. Without the financial resources of the southern church, the northern church will definitely try to take back the Thousand River Valley in order to compete for orthodox status."
"But don't the Kingdoms of Faran and Norn secretly support the Thousand River Valley?"
“Humph, you are totally wrong to think so. The Kingdom of Farlan and the Kingdom of Norn are not supporting the Thousand Valley, but are trying to weaken the Kingdom of Leia.
You have to know that as long as Qianhe Valley does not bow to the church and dares to treat nobles and knights in this way, then the Empire will have no reason to accept Qianhe Valley. All the sweet words are just for the ugly face in the end.
After the Battle of Windmill Land, although the Kingdom of Leia still retained Windmill Land, its internal situation had become weak, and both the Norn and the Faran were thinking about annexing its territory.
If the Kingdom of Leia attacks Qianhe Valley, they will of course support Qianhe Valley, but they neither want Qianhe Valley to win nor want the Kingdom of Leia to win.
The best thing would be for the Thousand River Valley to become a meat grinder, causing the Kingdom of Leia to bleed to death, making it easier for these hyenas to pounce on it and bite it.
Once the Kingdom of Leia has been torn apart, will there still be a need for the Thousand River Valley to exist?
In other words, when the Leia attacked the Thousand River Valley, the other two kingdoms would only support the Thousand River Valley in any way other than sending troops. From the moment they dared to wipe out the Thousand River Valley Church, their destruction was already doomed. "
"But all this should be based on the premise that Leia can really win, right?"
"Are you kidding me?" Lacunio glared at Elad. "The Pope launched a crusade, and with the help of the local knights of Leia, he can gather tens of thousands of knights. These cavalrymen are more than the infantry of the Savior Army. What can they use to fight?
Even if they really win, it will be a disaster. If the heretics in Qianhe Valley can defeat the entire Kingdom of Leia, what do you think the other two kingdoms will think?"
With a flickering light in his eyes, Lacunio looked back at the castle that was gradually disappearing from his sight: "You see, in two years at the latest, the Crusaders will be here, and in five years at the latest, this little wave in the Thousand River Valley will be completely annihilated in history!"
