Pendor Empire In Other Worlds

Vol 2 Chapter 16: State of emergency?

A letter from Viscount Thist Wolfen of Nuremberg, detailing the entire process of discovering the trail of the barbarians.

At the very beginning, an outpost set up in the hills was unable to reply to the news, and even the civilians who were going to deliver supplies were missing.

One of the tasks of an outpost built in the hills is to regularly report the situation in the hills to the territory in charge.

Although the frequency of these reports became less due to years of calm, at least one response was required once a month.

While secretly cursing the guards at the outposts for becoming more lazy, the military general in Nuremberg sent a squad to transport supplies as usual, and asked them to remind the guards to report back as soon as possible.

But another week passed, let alone sending back information, the civilian husband and the **** team who went to deliver the supplies did not return.

The general who realized that something was wrong quickly informed Viscount Tiste about the situation. Under his orders, several reconnaissance teams were dispatched, and at the same time they went to investigate several outposts belonging to Nuremberg.

As a result, it was discovered that the guards and farmers who went after the abnormal outpost were the first to be found. Only blood stains and traces of fighting at the scene indicate that this place has been attacked.

Surprisingly, only this outpost was attacked, and other outposts were normal.

In order to further investigate the situation, these reconnaissance teams continued to explore the hills.

In the end, the team in charge of the attacked post discovered the situation.

They found traces of barbarians thirty miles away from the outpost.

In order to pass the news back, the captain ordered the members to return separately. In the end, only three of the ten members managed to escape back.

At the end of the letter, Viscount Tiest also invited Lothar to rush to Nuremberg as soon as possible to discuss military affairs with him.

After reading the letter, Lothar solemnly issued several orders one after another.

First, the soldiers garrisoned at Luca were ordered to immediately abandon Luca and return to Leiden village quickly.

Being able to drive so many beasts to the Perth Plains, the number of barbarians is by no means only the number detected by the scouts. I am afraid that Viscount Tist is a little underestimated by his opponents.

At this time, you can't continue to set up a stage with Morwen Town to sing. If you are not careful, I am afraid that you will be attacked by "bandits".

Then, he ordered the villagers who were clearing the wasteland and managing the farmland to lay down their work and accept the command of the clerks, the soldiers of Mettenheim, to strengthen the defense of the village.

Old Fisher, who hurried back, got an explanation from Lothar, and immediately went to do it.

The village of Leiden is the closest place to the Maumoruo hills in the entire Principality, and the possibility of being attacked by barbarians is too high.

And Old Fisher, who had participated in the war twenty years ago, knew the brutality of barbarians very well.

Had it not been for the timely withdrawal of Morwin Town, which was still the Earl's territory, Leiden Village would have been gone.

But even so, the population of the nearby area has also lost a lot. Otherwise, how did those abandoned fields in Leiden Village come from?

Fortunately, Leiden Village is now considered strong. There is not only a knight army, but also a militia composed of villagers, with a total strength of more than two hundred people.

In addition, at Lothar's request, after the original wooden fence was demolished, a three-meter-high earthen wooden wall was built. Old Fisher was not particularly worried about the safety of Leiden Village.

It’s just that this year’s spring plowing is probably out of the question.

After the soldiers returned to the village, Lothar drew four Vanskerry guards from the soldiers to form an elite team.

Their task is to go deep into the forest and investigate the number and distance of the barbarian migration around Leiden Village.

With an understanding of the powerful combat effectiveness of this unit, Lothar firmly believes that they can complete the task without encountering too much danger.

Finally, after arranging patrol and defense tasks, Lothar rode on the newly bought golden steed and rushed to Nuremberg that day.

Alone.

I have to say that the golden steed is indeed a faster horse breed than the steed you bought before.

Remember the first Viscount town that Lothar passed through when he first went to Qatar City?

That is Nuremberg, 130 kilometers from Qatar City and 80 kilometers from Leiden Village.

Leiden village on the afternoon of February 13th, Lothar entered the gate of Nuremberg at noon on February 14th.

This speed caught the invitation from Viscount Tiste quite off guard.

You know, he was the first to send the messenger to Qatar City to inform the post of the attack, but he has not returned yet.

As for the information on the traces of the barbarians later, it is estimated that this will still be on the way.

At present, the nobles who rushed to Nuremberg were only a few knights who were relatively close, and belonged to the Walvin family.

Lothar was the furthest away, but the first to arrive, the direct lord of the earl who was directly related to the migration of the barbarians.

Of course, due to the lack of intelligence at present, Viscount Tiste did not believe that Lothar came here because of how dangerous the barbarian migration was.

He simply thought Lothar was giving himself face.

In a good mood, he enthusiastically invited him into his castle after receiving Lothar's request for a visit.

"Welcome, my distinguished guest."

A few years older than Lothar, but facing the forty-year-old Viscount Tiest, he greeted Lothar from afar at the door of the castle hall.

For the nobles two levels higher than Lothar, this etiquette is already quite high.

"Gui'an, my esteemed Viscount, may your glory last forever."

Lothar thumped his chest with a right fist. This was the common etiquette of the knight-level nobles.

"You are welcome, come on, let us talk in the hall."

Viscount Tist gave falsely with his left hand, and then led Lothar to the hall.

"To be honest, the speed of your arrival really surprised me."

Lothar followed up with Viscount Tiste after the wrong step, and said with a chuckle, "I'm really sorry. After getting your invitation, I happened to be busy without work, so I just came here directly. If you take the liberty, please bear with me.

By the way, I don't know what other nobles have come to this noble place. "

No mention is made of the migration of the barbarians.

"Ha, how about coming too fast? Now that I have arrived in the city, the only three knights who have a good relationship with me. However, they all have their own houses in the city. Not in the castle.

In this way, I will invite them to host a banquet for you tonight. You can rest here for a while now.

Speaking of ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ they haven't seen you yet. "

"Oh, that's my honor. But listening to you, do you mean that you have invited other nobles?"

"Of course, the barbarian invasion is not a trivial matter after all. I also invited a few other nobles with territories close to the border. There are still seven or eight people.

However, their territories are also a little far away, and they won't necessarily come over when they arrive. "

"That's really looking forward to it."

On the surface, Lothar's heart sank.

Seeing Nuremberg's lax state, he had some guesses. Now that he heard that Viscount Tiest had only invited so few nobles, it was obvious that the Viscount didn't pay much attention to this matter.

However, Lothar is not a person with low EQ, and naturally will not directly accuse aristocrats higher than him.

To attract the attention of the Viscount, you have to use a more euphemistic way.

I am afraid that the following aristocrats will only be counterproductive if they point fingers at the senior aristocrats.
