Reborn as a Werewolf Ancestor Chapter 138: A letter from the Barony of Birkett

In the morning, the wind and the sun are beautiful.

The Ridgett Territory was still peaceful and serene as usual, nothing happened.

The breeze blew across the distant plain, bringing up green waves.

It was at this time that a fast horse appeared in the plain. He crossed the forest, crossed the plain, and drove towards the direction of Eagle Fort.

I don't know how long it took, but the fast horse finally reached the city gate.

The guards stationed here are very competent, and they didn't immediately let them go because of their anxious appearance.

But stopped him and opened the city gate after confirming his identity.

After some twists and turns, an urgent letter was sent to the owner of the castle, Baron Kane.

Looking at the letter in the hands of the steward Jess, Kane frowned, because the seal on the letter was the family logo of a nobleman around his territory.

Immediately, Kane took out the letter opener, opened the letter, and read it carefully. During the process, his frown never relaxed.

After putting down the letter, he turned to the housekeeper Jess and said, "Go and call Sitz, Catherine, and Marcus here."

"Yes, my lord."

Jess also understood the importance of the matter, and hurriedly turned and left to execute it.

Only Kane was left alone, sitting at the table with a serious expression, wondering what he was thinking.

Soon, the door was knocked again, and there was a sound of "dong, dong, dong".

Kane knew that Catherine and the others were coming, so he immediately said to the door: "Come in."

After receiving Kane's response, several people rushed into the study.

They saluted Kane first, and then stood beside Kane, waiting for him to speak.

"Just now, I received a letter from the Barony of Burkitt." Kane said.

Catherine asked: "My lord, what is the content of the letter?"

"Their scouts detected a huge army approaching from the west of the territory in the early morning. Lord Baron Birkett recognized the flag above the army, which is the symbol of Manvila."

"Therefore, he hurriedly sent a courier to seek help from our nearby allies, and at the same time sent another team of couriers to rush the letter to Viscount Muchat and Earl Sardis."

After Kane finished speaking, several people lowered their heads and began to think.

"Unexpectedly, this Manvila actually changed his strategy, instead of attacking us first, he attacked the surrounding territories." Catherine said.

Marcus on the side understood the other party's intentions, and explained to Catherine: "That's natural, since the last battle, we have completely defeated his army, so you need to reconsider our strength. "

"Compared to our territory with more powerful troops, aren't the baronies with sparse troops around us better targets to attack?

"Besides, as long as we capture all these territories, I'm afraid we won't be able to swallow our tough bone. The opponent's strategy can be said to achieve the greatest results with the least effort."

"At that time, completely isolate our territory from the transportation team and the surrounding allies, and we will be in a state of isolation and helplessness. It is not easy to capture us."

After Marcus's explanation, Catherine just understood the opponent's strategy.

"I see." She sighed.

Kane fully unfolded the map, showing the location of the Burkitt Barony, which is about 60 kilometers away from his Rigiter Territory.

Even if all the members are cavalry, it will take nearly half a day to reach the opponent's territory if they run fast.

Looking at the subordinates in front of him, Kane asked, "What do you think?"

Catherine thought for a moment and said: "My lord, I think we should send troops."

"This subordinate has an opinion with Captain Catherine, but I don't think we can fully bring out the troops in the city." Marcus said from the side.

Sitz also said: "I agree with Marcus Knight's opinion. At the same time, it may be better if we can negotiate with the rest of the lords who received the letter."

Kane nodded with satisfaction, and said to several people: "Very well, your opinions basically agree with mine. If we can't send troops to rescue in time at this moment, it will definitely allow the other party to capture the city and establish an advantage. It is not good for us."

"I will accept Marcus' proposal. The territory cannot be guarded by soldiers. No one knows if Manvila will suddenly make a move."

Speaking, Kane looked at Sitz again, and said, "Your proposal also has merits, but the current situation is urgent, and we have no extra time to contact other nobles."

"I see, my lord." Sitz said understandingly.

"Very good. Next, in terms of dispatching troops, the descending troops must be dispatched. I can't guarantee that they will still be able to perform their due duties after I leave." Kane continued.

"Understood, my lord, I will arrange a group of soldiers to replace the inspection mission of the soldiers." Catherine said.

"Furthermore, we need to take away 45 soldiers and 32 cavalry. We will have to trouble Marcus and Catherine in terms of organization. The two of you arrange it. The task of patrolling can only be temporarily shared with the rest of the people."

"It is ~IndoMTL.com~ sir." The two replied.

"In addition, this battle needs to lead some recruits to experience, at least about 20 recruits, and then cooperate with veterans to lead the action."

"This coincides with the thoughts of my subordinates." Catherine agreed.

"Well, that's all for now, I'll give you a morning to prepare, and we'll gather at the front gate at noon." Kane finally ordered to several people.

"Yes, my lord." Several people saluted Kane again, and then left the study to complete various preparation tasks.

......

Following Kane's order, the castle became busy immediately. The chefs began to prepare the rations that the support army would eat for a few days, and the servants were packing some tents and cotton for the field. quilt.

In the barracks, all the soldiers have been gathered together by Catherine one by one, and the screening has begun, who can go to the battle and who will stay to guard the castle.

Driss would not miss such an opportunity to surrender the leader of the army. After all, the goal he set for himself was to gain a lot of military exploits and gain Kane's attention.

Therefore, he immediately proposed to Catherine that all members of their surrender team would be willing to go to the battlefield to perform their crimes and meritorious deeds, even the lords who had served in the past.

Unexpectedly, Catherine said to him with a smile, Lord Kane had already included their team in the personnel who needed to participate in the battle long ago.

This situation made Driss very excited. He didn't expect Lord Kane to pay so much attention to himself and others earlier, and believed that they were an indispensable force in the army.

If not, why do they have to follow them to the battlefield?

In this way, in Driss's reverie, Catherine finished screening all the soldiers and arranged the inspection tasks for the next few days.
