Tales of the Reincarnated Lord Chapter 233: Investigation
Chapter 233 Investigation
Twelve days later, Second Highness led the team to this unknown little mound.
The body of Yaslan Count wearing a gorgeous armor is placed in front of him. If you look closely, you can find that the head and body of Yaslan Count are separated. For ten days, the body already has a smell.
Second Highness reached out and waved in front of the nose, it seemed that this could drive away the faint body odor: "OK, carry it away."
His voice is very soft, but everyone who is familiar with his character can hear it. Second Highness is angry until the anger is about to erupt.
Two Imperial Guard lightly lifted the body of Yaslan Count out of big tent.
"Reid Marquis, tell everyone the results of your investigation." Second Highness ordered.
"Yes, Your Highness." Reid Marquis stood up and came to the middle of big tent, with a thick stack of animal skin paper files in his hands.
Reid Marquis was the earliest. He was responsible for containing deserters, investigating the cause of the defeat, and burying the dead. He opened the file and started reporting: "This time, Yaslan Count privately mobilized more than 7,500 people from the three brigades to leave the barracks in the name of long-distance raids, preparing to attack the returning team of Count Norton and revenge his Little Brother Viscount Yaslan.
But the ending was very bad. Yaslan Count died on his own. His cavalry brigade killed or injured more than 1,600 people, including more than 800 people who died in battle, more than 600 people missing, and more than 200 people who fled and returned. They also lost most of the mount.
Two thousand infantry battalions had 5,000 casualties, more than 1,400 people, 2,000 missing, and more than 1,500 people who fled the battlefield, but now they have basically returned to the team. It is worth noting that their enemies are only Norton Family armed forces 500 people, this battle led by Yaslan Count can be described as a fiasco. "
"Bang" Second Highness punched the table with a punch: "Seven thousand and five hundred men, first whether or not Yaslan Count privately transferred troops, but his enemies are only five hundred people, and a ten to one number advantage can It ’s a big defeat, is n’t my Royal Guard Legion's fighting power getting more and more uncomfortable? So what else do we use to unify Empire Is this my army? It ’s just a flock of sheep ”
big tent is silent, everyone hangs their heads and listens to the roar of Second Highness.
After losing his temper for a long time, Second Highness finally calmed down and said to Red Marquis, "You continue, let everyone hear how the battle was defeated, and let everyone learn a lesson."
"Yes." Reid Marquis opened another document: "According to my investigation, Yaslan Count heard the news that Count Norton left Imperial Capital and led the three brigades to take a short approach and rush to the front to ambush. But he did not expect Count Norton suddenly The route of the return trip was changed, and I went back to Samba town by boat. After waiting for two days, Yaslan Count found out that I had to order the cavalry brigade to Domesgo.
According to the confessions of two Mid Captain(s)s and four Squad Leaders of the escaped cavalry brigade, it was confirmed that the order given by Yaslan Count was to entangle the team of Count Norton, and waited for the arrival of the two infantry brigade with him to fight together.
From a tactical point of view, the deployment of Yaslan Count is well-formed, and there is nothing to belittle the enemy. However, Yaslan Count was afraid of causing Count Norton's defense, and did not send scouts to conduct tracking reconnaissance. This was the only biggest mistake he made. Even after Count Norton changed course, Yaslan Count didn't know it. The three infantry brigade led by him ambush for two days was useless.
When it was discovered that Count Norton had gone the waterway, the infantry brigade of already and Yaslan Count started a two-day journey. Yaslan Count can only order its cavalry brigade to hurry the enemy to delay the journey. This point is also a more formal combat method.
But Count Norton was very alert and found that the cavalry brigade retreated to the mound beside the road. We can still see a lot of defensive facilities arranged by Norton Family armed forces, but he did not expect that the cavalry brigade was not going to launch an attack, and Is to hold him back. So he started camping under the mounds.
According to the escaped cavalry, they deployed five camps with a squadron strength of five hundred men, forming a semi-circular defensive front except the cliff over the mound, and organized patrols to guard to ensure Norton Family armed forces cannot break through at night.
The cavalry brigade did nothing wrong, but they did not expect Norton Family armed forces to use that cliff to lurk in front of their camp, solving the patrol's attack on the two camps before and after the attack. And drove away the cavalry to impact the remaining three camps. The sleeping cavalry brigade was caught off guard, and the cavalry brigade, which had lost its warhorses, finally collapsed.
The Count Norton, who defeated the cavalry brigade, was unwilling to give up. He used Yaslan Count to lead the two infantry brigade. It took two days to get to Jillin Harbor and the nearby Territory to buy nearly a thousand cattle and stallions. When Yaslan Count arrived here to clean up the mess, they hit two infantry brigades one by one again. "
Reid Marquis picked up a few more documents: "This is an confession of an infantry Great Captain and several Mid Captain(s)s. They said that when they arrived here, already was in the afternoon. As a dozen runaway cavalry were encountered on the road, they already knew that the cavalry brigade had lost a battle. Yaslan Count was in a bad mood, and he ordered the fifty cavalry whip of those escaping cavalry. They thought that Correct's escape caused the cavalry corps to lose.
At the time, everyone, like Yaslan Count, believed that Count Norton had already fled with his family armed forces, so they set up camp and did nothing to prevent it. As a result, in the middle of the night, they were attacked again by Count Norton.
This time Count Norton poured the mount of the nearly 1,000 cavalry brigade they captured and the cattle, bridles and other horses he bought, tied them with daggers and daggers on the horns of mount, and covered them with turfgrasses Cattle horse eyes. After the ignition, more than two thousand cattle and horses stormed into the camp. The two infantry brigade awakened in their sleep were frightened when they saw these fire ox and horses and those burning fire rushed over, and they blew up the whole army on the spot.
Yaslan Count also wanted to convene soldier(s) to form a defensive front, but the Count Norton who entered the camp with these fire oxes did not give him a chance. An escaped soldier(s) said that what he saw at the time was Count Norton rushed over and only had two moves with Yaslan Count, and Yaslan Count was beheaded with one sword. Nearly a hundred soldier(s)s gathered by already saw that Yaslan Count died, either kneeling down and begging for mercy, or fled.
I have to admire that Count Norton used the fire ox and fire horse to break through the 5,000-person camp. It was a godsend. He achieved a great victory with only a slight casualty. He took away the head of Yaslan Count and did not enter Jillin Harbor. Instead, he boarded a boat a dozen miles away from Jillin Harbor, and inserted the head of Viscount Yaslan on a branch of the beach.
The first Legion stationed in Jillin Harbor received news that already was late when sending a team to the beach, Count Norton and their fleet had already gone. The brigade found the head of Yaslan Count on the beach and brought it back. Based on the traces left on the beach, we believe that the missing persons of the cavalry and infantry brigades should have been captured by Norton Family and taken to Silowas Islands. "
After reporting the situation of the investigation, Reid Marquis handed the documents on the table in front of Second Highness, and then retired to his seat.
Second Highness picked up these files and watched them carefully. Reid Marquis is very old. Not only did he have detailed confessions that survived this battle and soldier(s), but also drew the topographic map of the small mound, based on the Norton Family armed forces. Qiu's defensive arrangement and the five camps of the cavalry brigade were all drawn, and the schematic route of the night raid five battalions was also drawn on it. There are also Yaslan Count led the two infantry brigades rushed to Houza camp plan, etc., which is clear at a glance.
After reading these documents, Second Highness was silent, but his finger struck on the desk case.
The hearts of everyone present in big tent are beating with the fingers that Second Highness tapped on the table. Everyone knows that once Second Highness stopped tapping, it means that already has made a decision and no one else is allowed change.
The percussion sound is getting more and more rapid. Suddenly, the sound is gone. The silence in big tent is just that everyone straightens their chests and their expressions become more serious.
"David Copperfield"
"Here, Your Highness, what do you want?" The beautiful boy David appeared in front of Second Highness. As the Imperial Guard deputy commander of Second Highness, he must always be on the side when Second Highness goes out, on call.
"You take a team of Imperial Guard back to Imperial Capital, pass my military order, let the Royal Guards first Legion out of a team under your command, go to Yaslan Count for me to check, uproot the Yaslan family, and the men ’s hair is assigned to The dare-to-death camp was guilty of guilt, and the woman arranged to serve as a military prostitute in the army's prostitute camp. "Second Highness coldly spit out a chilling decision.
The Aristocrat(s) in the big tent rioted, the rabbit died, and the Yaslan Count was loved as Second Highness during his lifetime. He ended up so dead and even implicated his family. The treatment of Second Highness seemed too harsh and unfriendly.
Several Aristocrat(s)s from "His Royal Highness" stood up and begged.
"Sit down" Second Highness was suddenly furious: "Viscount Yaslan, as my tax inspector, was full of bullies and greed, but he was beheaded in front of me. I think he is pitiful and wants to stop the investigation. .Who knows that his brother, Yaslan Count, is a general general, but he sent his soldiers privately for revenge, which caused his soldier(s) to be severely damaged and his sin cannot be forgiven. Does he regard my soldier(s) as his family personal soldier?
"So, I want to strip the title of Yaslan Count and take back his Count collar, thinking that the latecomers should abstain. Do you have any opinions?" His Highness asked arrogantly: "If he wins, maybe I will not pursue it His responsibility, but you see, what battle he fought, 7,500 people, or my main force Legion, but was defeated by the Norton Family 500 people This is simply incompetent, stupid extreme maybe I have to thank Count Norton, he has let me avoid the failure caused by the ineffective battle of Yaslan Count in the future war to unify Empire
David allows you to check the money of the Yaslan family because the treasury is in short supply and it is difficult to take out a large amount of money to supplement the second Legion's major loss caused by the private actions of Yaslan Count. You go and do it well. After finishing, you will go to the second Legion to replace the position of Captain of Yaslan Count, and rectify this corps. As for the troop strength, I will adjust it from the reserve Legion to supplement you. "
"Yes, Your Royal Highness, please rest assured, I will not disappoint your expectations." The beautiful boy David set off arrogantly after the ceremony.
"Let ’s step back, Grisia stay." Second Highness waved his hands and propped his head with his hands. It was a headache.
The mermaids in big tent came out, the cousin of Correct Lorist, Gold female Knight(s) Grisia. When Lorist arrived at Imperial Capital, as the Captain of the recently formed Royal Family Knight(s) group, Grisia was training outside with her Knight(s) group, so she missed the meeting with Lorist.
Grisia moved behind Second Highness, and used his fingers to massage his temples: "Aog, you are too tired, you should pay more attention to your body"
As a lover of Second Highness, Chris Ya knows what his lovers are most upset about right now. However, she is also difficult to speak. One is her own family, her cousin, and the other is her lover.
Second Highness grabbed the hand that massaged her and put the girl in her arms: "Grisia, go for a trip to Silowas Islands for me, see your cousin Locke, and explain to him that this incident is not me The original intention is Yaslan Count to make his own claim. By the way, tell him what I do with the Yaslan family. I hope he can take this breath away.
My father's body already can't support it. After his death, we will complete the great cause of unifying Empire. I also hope that Locke can come and help me. He is good at surprise attacks and unexpected military deployments. In this regard, I find no one can match him. If he is unwilling, then at least make sure to give me an army of Grand Duke Fisablen, and don't let that old man run out of the grassland to make trouble for me.
Also, just now you also heard Red ’s Marquis, Locke is likely to take those missing soldier(s) as captives to Silowas Islands. You go and see if you can get these soldier(s) back, the state treasury is empty, we ca n’t afford the ransom, we can wait for the reunification of Empire and then give compensation "
Grisia reached out and stroked Qinglang's thin face: "Okay, I'll rush to Jillin Harbor and find a boat to Silowas Islands later. I will try my best to fulfill your request, and you should take care of yourself"
Breaking the camp with a fire ox is a Lorist brainstorm. I remembered the story told by my grandfather in his previous life, Tian Dan's fire ox formation during the Warring States Period. However, the cattle and stallions purchased at a high price were too few and less than a thousand heads. As soon as he bit his teeth, he commanded to hand over the captured steeds and the original caravan stallions. Five hundred better stallions were selected, and the remaining one More than a thousand heads became the cannon fodder of the rush camp.
Good luck is that Yaslan Count led the two infantry brigades and they thought that Lorist had already run away, so there was no defense, and the camp was extremely sloppy and hastily, even more than two thousand cattle and horses on fire. Rushing into the camp and trampled wildly, more than 5,000 people in the two infantry brigade collapsed on the spot.
Lorist only brought two hundred people into the camp behind the fire cows and horses. No one except the Lorist rushed to kill Yaslan Count, and most of the casualties of the two infantry brigades were It was caused by those crazy fire oxes and horses, and even those Norton Family soldier(s) that rushed into the camp were rescued by the fire ox and horses by five or six.
After winning, Lorist sent Els and others to Jillin Harbor and hired several seaboats, stopped at a beach more than ten miles away, and escorted more than 2,000 captives onto the ship and went out to sea. Before leaving, Lorist found that the head of Yaslan Count was still hanging in front of his mount. It ’s useless to bring this stuff back. After thinking about it, I found a tree branch and inserted it on the beach. Then I plugged my head in.
After returning to Silowas Islands, I first found a place for the martyr's battalion soldier(s) to build a tomb of heroes, and arranged a grand funeral and requiem ceremony, and then waited for the Northern Land ship to ship a large number of supplies.
Lorist went to Imperial Capital this month Charade with the assistance of Hugo Dad, Hicked and others already sorted out the general Silowas Islands development plan, and wait for the final decision of Lorist.
Not right Charade know Lorist After the demonstration of the fire ox and fire horse broke the camp, he pulled Lorist Forget about it, more than 2,000 horses and cows became cannon fodder, worth more than 20,000 gold fordes , Charade Angry at Lorist Keeping your ears awake, this is simply a prodigal act. There are only 5,000 enemies. It took more than 20,000 to defeat them. gold fordes It is really impossible.
Charade believes that it is better to spend these gold fordess on the enemy, four per person, to ensure that they bundle Yaslan Count and send it to Lorist. On this day, while they were reviewing the development plan, they peeled, and saw Jim come in and report: "Lord(s), your cousin Grisia is here"
To be continued.
