Start as Inherited Baroness

Chapter 221 Elite Vanguard

"Sommel, how many nobles are left in your North Wind Land?" Trodo asked with a sullen face.

"You are asking even though you know the answer!" Sommel said unhappily.

"I am asking how many soldiers are left?"

"Less than a thousand." Sommel sighed.

"I still have more than a thousand here, but they are more mixed and not as united as you are.

The soldiers of other people have been united by Viscount Simon. This guy is really insidious! This battle killed twelve barons!

Prince Feddi is usually a smart man, but I didn't expect him to be so stupid when fighting..." Trodo shook his head angrily.

"It's useless to complain! The facts are already like this.

Now, you should think more about how to gain a foothold in the Three Mountains Territory in the future." Sommel was still calm.

He felt that he was different from Trodo, so he was not very panicked.

After all, Simon is now a member of the faction of Marquis Val, and Sommel is also, so the two can naturally unite.

Even if Simon wants to move him, he will not act too quickly or too obviously.

Trodo was here to grab food, and now that his hard power has been weakened, he may have a hard time in the future.

Maybe his body will be thrown into the wilderness, and his noble dream will be shattered.

Trodo pondered for a while, and said in a light voice: "Don't be too happy too early, Viscount Simon may not tolerate you."

After saying this, he turned and left.

Somir stared at his back for a while, and said nothing more, but went to summon the nobles of Beifeng Land and held a small meeting.

At this time, Ai Lei had led the guards to gather the lord's army who had lost the baron.

After a lecture and dealing with a few troublemakers, the team was disbanded and mixed.

After counting, they were organized into a West Guard Corps of 2,500 people, and there were more than 700 people left, forming a separate vanguard regiment.

Among them, the soldiers of the West Guard Corps were much inferior in terms of equipment and combat quality.

Most of them wore leather armor or iron-studded leather armor, with shield spearmen and shield axemen accounting for the majority, but there were also more than 500 archers of varying levels.

The Vanguard Regiment was undoubtedly an elite, with more than 70% of its members equipped with various styles of light iron armor.

There were fifty or sixty warriors wearing heavy armor, and even many were equipped with plate chain armor.

The weapons were generally good quality weapons such as fine iron swords.

The Vanguard Regiment was definitely a sharp knife, and they had to be used to face the most vicious enemies.

After all, these warriors had relatively firm loyalty and were suitable to follow their masters.

After the army was reorganized, Simon went to inspect and showed his face.

Then he arranged for the soldiers to light a fire and cook, so that everyone had a full meal and took a short rest on the ground, and then it was time for the army to set off.

"Lord Viscount Simon! Commander Ravens has ordered the entire army to set off."

The messenger ran to a distance from Simon and shouted respectfully.

"No problem!" Simon responded with a faint smile.

After the herald saluted respectfully, he mounted his horse and went away to continue notifying the troops.

For those barons who were directly under him, their families took over the command of their troops.

Simon had thought of these soldiers before, but found it difficult to do so, so he gave up for the time being.

"Aile and Phyllis will take 100 guards and temporarily command the Western Guard.

Mylan and I will command the remaining guards together.

And Valadi will manage the soldiers of the Vanguard." Simon gathered his managers and gave simple instructions.

Valadi was selected from the Vanguard, and he was a real knight with decent strength and prestige.

This person was very loyal to his baron master, and Simon temporarily won him over in the name of rescuing the nobles.

It is estimated that before his baron master was rescued or confirmed dead, this person is still quite useful and can help him restrain the Vanguard.

After fighting a few tough battles, this team will be almost written off.

Therefore, Simon did not take these people seriously, but he still provided them with good food and drink, just like before.

After all, they were about to fight to the death, and they could not let the dying people find out the clues at this time.

Not long after, the Sword Legion was on the road and continued to rush to the Long Narrow Territory, but the goal changed from rescuing the Long Narrow Castle to rescuing Prince Feddy.

Simon also led his troops to follow behind.

Three days passed in a blink of an eye.

The infantry marched too slowly and had not walked a hundred miles.

There were no obstacles on the road, only some fleeing refugees, who saw them and hurried into the mountains and forests.

In the evening of this day, they camped by the stream.

Simon and his men had hunted some prey on the road, and they were now gutting it by the stream and roasting it on the fire.

"My Lord Viscount, Ravens is coming." Mai Lan suddenly came over to report.

"Huh?" Simon responded, turned around and looked over, only to see dozens of people riding horses.

Soon, they arrived outside the camp and were stopped by soldiers. They dismounted and walked over.

"Viscount Ravens, how come you have time to come to me today?" Simon asked politely.

"Viscount Simon, I need your help.

I remember you have a griffin here. Can I borrow it? Don't worry, it's just for scouting the movements of the Green Forest Brotherhood..."

Ravens smiled kindly.

"You should have a griffin, right? Didn't you bring it?" Simon said calmly.

"His Highness Feddy only has two griffins, one of which is left in Changxiang Territory.

The other one has other tasks and has not returned yet.

So I can only borrow yours, and I hope you will help me generously. "Ravens said sincerely.

"No problem, but my griffin is afraid of strangers, so I have to ride it myself.

Tell me, where do you want to scout? I don't mind going there." Simon smiled faintly.

"This... There are places that need to be explored on the ground. It's a bit dangerous for you to go there." Ravens hesitated.

"Then I'm sorry, my griffin was injured when I bought it. My legs and feet are not in good condition, so I can only fly in the sky.

It's inconvenient to move on the ground." Simon refused without hesitation.

Ravens' face sank slightly when he heard this. He was silent for a moment, and said helplessly: "Okay, please ask Viscount Simon to go there.

Go and see if the long narrow fort is still holding on. In addition, try to spy on the layout of the Green Forest Brothers along the way. "

"Okay, I'll set off early tomorrow morning. "Simon nodded and agreed.

"Thank you!" After thanking him, Ravens chatted for a while and then led his people away.

"My Lord Viscount, isn't it a bit dangerous for you to go alone?"

My Lord Mailan looked at the backs of these people leaving and said with some worry.

"The griffin can only take two people at most. Don't worry, nothing will happen.

Okay, let's go and roast the venison and bear meat, so that everyone can have a good meal tonight." Simon smiled and said confidently.

"Yes! My Lord!" My Lord immediately responded and left.
