Rise In Calradia

Chapter 339: : Pursuit

"Offense! Offense! For Swadia!"

Smoke and dust billowed, it was the power of heavy cavalry trampling on the land. The roar of horseshoes is the movement played by ten thousand horses.

Swadia’s heavy cavalry unit was like a sharp knife, inserted into the center of Kurgit’s army, struggling to tear Kugit’s troops in half, reducing the pressure on the Byron regiment.

Soon, Kurgit’s army began to shake. The Nord and Rhodok infantry, who relied on the shield to support the cavalry charge, seized the opportunity and began to counterattack. The Swadia troops who stabilized their formation behind did not fight anymore. The property rushed towards the enemy under the leadership of Earl Greyward.

In the end, Saiga Khan's army could not withstand the fierce counterattack of the Swadians. Although they were large in number, few people wanted to continue fighting. As a result, the army continued to retreat, and no longer discarded money and money along the way. The cavalry unit carried out several large-scale harassment and assaults, and the horse-tired Swadia cavalry unit stopped advancing. The two sides finally confronted each other five miles outside the city, and then they both retreated quite tacitly. Afterwards, the Khan's army marched towards the grassland. They plundered so much wealth. Although they did not take Dherim, they should go home in dignity.

Obviously, not all Lord Khergit felt that they had made enough money, and their enemies did not want them to leave in dignity.

So Swadia's army returned to the city and declared victory to the citizens and cheered. At the same time, several earl lords also gathered in the castle and began to discuss the next move. Earl Greyward sought stability. He planned to rebuild the border defense line and expel the scattered Kujit troops within the territory. The water of the Drum River had begun to flow again, and they would soon be able to regain peace for a few days.

But Earl Cress thought otherwise. As the lord of Dehrim, he knows exactly what kind of tragedy his people have encountered. He is cold and unsmiling, but he can't bear the loss of his territory so much that he can't make the enemy pay enough. He is even more annoyed. In this way, the taxes that belonged to their own wealth came into the hands of the prairie lords. He proposed a counterattack, and the Kujites are now fully committed, their will to fight is greatly reduced, and a surprise attack on them will surely achieve great results. Even if they fail to defeat their main force, at least they should go to the grassland, taking advantage of their faces to take back the things that do not belong to them when they finish the return journey, and let the herdsmen of the grassland also taste the Swadians. anger.

Byron expressed his support for the idea of ​​Earl Claes. He led an entire battle group to support him. Now he has lost a lot of manpower and cost a lot of dinars. Most of the belongings thrown by the Kurgits have been returned to the hands of Count Kleis to repair the city, reward soldiers, and rebuild. The villages and towns made him lose money seriously. Although prestige and friendship cannot be measured by money, Byron really wants to exchange these for cash in dinars. How could he let go of the opportunity to go to the grassland to recoup the capital or even make money.

On the other hand, during this siege, he did see the heads of the slaughtered captives and peasants falling into the city, and seeing the helpless cry of the peasants who fled into the city, he was very upset, so He also hoped that the Kujites could also feel his discomfort.

Of course, Earl Greyward did not support such a high-risk plan. He was worried that the Sega Khan would discover and lead an army to fight them, and he was even more worried that the river was rising too fast to withdraw in time. So the final decision was handed over to Earl Craggs. Although he was not the oldest among his brothers, he had the most say at this time with thousands of cavalry in hand.

In the end, Earl Craggs chose to stand on the side of Earl Craggs.

"They have suffered losses, but they are still too strong. If there is a chance to weaken them, that would be great. Now the situation within the kingdom is turbulent, and no one knows if we can still have the current situation when the steppe people launch an offensive next time. General strength. If there is a chance to weaken them, it is best not to miss this opportunity. Besides, in my experience, we still have a good chance of winning."

So the matter was settled in this way. Earl Greyward led a unit to deal with the Coogitt guerrillas who ran to the west. By the way, they were prepared to take the escape when they returned, while Earl Cress and Cragg Count Spiel and Byron led the main force east to the territory of Kujit, along the way, while cleaning up the insatiable little Kujit lord, while taking back the stolen property, saving the people by the way, after all, that is an important duty as a lord.

So after only one day of repairs, the army was ready to set off outside the city. The people in the city took the initiative to go out of the city to watch them leave. After this battle, their gratitude to these brave fighters is hard to express. Especially the Earl Byron and his army, without them Dherum might really fall. Moreover, the young earl is very close to the people. He often visits the wounded and comforts the people after the battle. The measures he has taken have also saved the city from the plague crisis~www.wuxiaspot.com~ is widely praised by the people, and Byron is already there. There is a certain prestige and fame in Dehrim, and after this battle, he has gained the respect and influence of Earl Kleis in this city. Every Dehrim who saw him would salute him very respectfully, behaving more friendly than Amila's leaders. Even the Golden Hand family, Byron's old opponent, is now madly infatuating Byron, and even considering marrying some unmarried women in the family to the leadership of the Peony Mission and Byron's noble officers.

Count Kleis gave a speech before the army. He angrily rebuked the atrocities of the Kurgits and listed all their evil deeds during the siege. He asked his soldiers if they were willing to be attacked again and again. The owner’s livestock is waiting to be plundered again and again by those prairie robbers, but still rushes to their land, using their blood and tears to make them realize that Dehrim’s land is inviolable.

After the war, the soldiers will obviously choose the second way out. Although they had just escaped from the war, they still shouted for revenge in vigor, and were very willing to follow their lord to regain their wealth and avenge their dead relatives.

The same is true on Byron's side, but they lack the firmness of the locals to defend their hometown, but instead they respect Byron and obey orders. When Byron ordered the march east, no one complained. They turned their gazes to the east, and then listened to the drums and strode forward, just as they did on their way to Dehrim.
