Wandering Knight Start: I have a simple data panel

Faced with this very tempting proposal, Derek felt that the possibility of success was very high.

If the 20,000 remnants could be left behind, the pressure next year would be much lighter.

Derrick walked back and forth several times, his brain spinning frantically.

"First, let me sort it out. What can we get if we attack at night?

If we wipe out these 20,000 people, we might be able to capture an earl alive.

The ransom alone might be worth a barony, and there would be a reward from the king.

The pressure next year will be much less."

Derrick counted them one by one. There were too many benefits.

The knights' breathing also became heavy.

"But if this is a trap, then everything is over.

Birch Castle will definitely not be able to be defended, and then the Saint Miller Province.

If you are lucky enough to escape alive, you will soon become a dog without a home.

But if we do nothing, everyone has a title, and some people even have some fiefdoms.

We each occupy part of the industry in the Saint Miller Province, and as long as time goes by, we can transform it into strength.

Next year, perhaps the Holy Cross Kingdom will have more troops, but our pressure will be less.

Even if I do nothing in the second half of my life, it is enough to pass on my surname."

Derrick calmed down as he spoke.

The benefits are huge, and the risks are also huge.

Is it time for me to risk my life?

No, I obviously have a golden finger, and time is on my side.

When I was barefoot, it was understandable to risk my life.

Now that I have put on shoes and become an exploiting class, why should I risk my life?

The knights also calmed down. The benefits are indeed not big enough for people to take risks.

If you defend the Birch Castle, you will definitely receive a lot of rewards from the king, and even many people will get a part of the newly obtained fiefdoms increased. There is no need to take risks.

The tens of thousands of people from the Holy Cross Kingdom who fell under the Birch Castle are the best medals of military honor. Why bother to pursue the last piece of fat meat.

"I understand, Lord Viscount, we just watch them retreat.

When we have accumulated enough strength, we will let them have a good time next year."

Simon is ambitious, so let the old guy Connor keep his head on his neck for a few years.

"That's right, but that doesn't mean we won't do anything.

Simon, take a banner of cavalry and 'escort' Earl Connor away.

The main army can't move, of course, but some light cavalry can monitor the people of the Holy Cross Kingdom and also test their strength.

Simon took the order and left, taking a banner of cavalry.

The people of the Holy Cross Kingdom evacuated in a panic, abandoning a large amount of baggage along the way.

You can even see some lost serfs, which makes Simon more certain that the Holy Cross Kingdom simply can't hold on.

Calculating the time, the winter solstice has passed, and heavy snow is about to come. If the army continues to delay, these serfs will probably freeze to death.

"The Viscount is still too cautious. "

Seeing the merits of these walks, Simon's adventurous thoughts surged again.

However, the long-term personal worship made him feel that Derek's consideration was very likely to happen.

Then he could only feel regretful.

Since he was in a hurry to track down the whereabouts of the Kingdom of the Holy Cross, Simon did not have time to check carefully along the way.

So he did not know that the scattered defeated soldiers on the roadside, some of whom had ruddy faces, looked completely different from serfs.

When this flag of cavalry passed by, the serfs lying on the ground jumped up immediately.

The ragged clothes on his body could not cover his relatively strong body.

He ran wildly for a long time and soon rushed into a small forest.

If Simon followed, he would find a large number of noble private armies of the Kingdom of the Holy Cross hiding here.

"Sir, a team of Locke cavalry just passed by, with about one flag of people."

The spy quickly reported the news.

The general hiding in the woods was very excited: "Well, it seems that the Earl's plan has succeeded. These must be Locke's scouts. Keep hiding and don't be discovered. "

We have been hiding under the Birch Castle for so long, not to mention the heavy casualties, we are so angry.

The war between the two countries has always been a give-and-take, and the nobles of the Holy Cross Kingdom do not think that they are too bad.

It's all because of Derek of the Birch Castle who is too despicable.

Now that we have the opportunity to teach him a lesson, of course we can't help but be happy.

Then, the news spread quickly.

If someone looks down from the sky, they will find that a thousand-man team uses the terrain such as woods and valleys to simply hide themselves.

It can't be said to be perfect, but it has roughly formed a fishing net.

As long as the people of the Locke Kingdom catch up, they will be caught in the fishing net.

Earl Connor has not spent more than a month in vain in the Birch Castle In fact, after the setback on the first day, he realized the difficulty of the enemy.

So, while performing under the Birch Castle, he sent people to survey the nearby terrain.

Then he used the ample time to build a roughly complete net.

Now, those in front of Simon are all baits.

Cannon fodder destined to die.

The only difference is to die in the heavy snow and cold, or to be caught up by Rockman and killed.

Count Connor does not mind using more than 10,000 lives to stain his title red.

And the determination of the Kingdom of the Holy Cross is greater than many people think.

Simon knows nothing, and this is how the information gap on the battlefield is formed.

One side has made careful arrangements, and perhaps you can detect it if you are more careful.

But in most cases, the other party will not give you time to check carefully.

The opportunity for war is fleeting, and everyone is competing for acumen and time.

However, along the way, the more Simon chased, the more strange he felt.

In fact, the military theory of this world is still quite primitive, and some military leaders will not publicize their own special skills everywhere.

Most excellent generals rely on their talents to explore alone, or the scattered knowledge passed down by their families.

But for Derek, he himself has a relatively complete military cognition, and then fills the content in the framework.

I dare not say that it can cover all the content, but it is generally complete.

Therefore, Simon and others did not realize how valuable the military theory they learned was.

And now, this knowledge hidden in the memory is touched by the scene in front of them.

The army of the Holy Cross Kingdom cannot help but stop and rest along the way.

They are retreating, and there is still a distance from defeat.

Even if some soldiers ran away, the general military framework is still there.

So setting up camp, making fire and eating, generally there is not much change.

And these traces are also difficult to hide.

No matter how cunning Earl Connor was, his thinking was limited by the times.

He never noticed some details.

Simon just walked around the traces of the camp and immediately found the source of his uneasiness.

"The number of stoves is wrong."
