The Last Frontier of Fire and Sword

In the following days, Anjey paid special attention to the mercenary group's every move. He sent some spies to wander around the camp of the mercenary group, paying close attention to every team that went into the camp of the mercenary group.

Such surveillance activities were carried out for five days. The result is to reassure Anjay. The mercenary regiment was like a group of headless flies, running around in the forests and villages around Polotsk, searching some possible valley manors and villages with their own warrants. Some "Forest Brothers" who had gathered in the mountains and forests for many years also suffered and were uprooted by the mercenary group.

Of course, the result was nothing. Because the arms were not in the hands of the robbers at all, but lay quietly in the cellar of Rubić Manor.

If the mercenary group keeps looking for it like this, don't even think about finding the whereabouts of the arms for a lifetime. And Anjay has already planned to bring this team to Rubić to train when the 1,000 people have been assembled, and then distribute the armor and weapons that have been worn away from the Laziviu family emblem, without knowing it. .

Gradually, Anjay relaxed his surveillance of the camp of the mercenary group.

And can things really go as smoothly as Andrzej Kmicicz thought?

Also on the sixth day after the incident, the mercenary group held a meeting of officers again, and the participants were the last few people.

Cheerchen took out a letter just sent from Werner, and said to everyone, "Everyone, this is a reply from the prince to us. Now I will read it to everyone."

After getting Anjay’s warrant and returning to the camp of the mercenary group, Chechen immediately wrote a letter to Prince Yanush Raziviu, reporting in detail the situation of the looting and suggesting that the munitions were robbed. Related to Andrzej Kmicicz. The letter was brought back to Werner by the escorting officer, and now it is finally waiting for the Prince's reply.

In the letter, Prince Yanush wrote:

"My most loyal Alvar Chechen: I know about the robbing of the arms. The country is difficult and the "chaotic" bandits are rampant, and it is inevitable at any time. This batch of arms is very related, and you should try to get it back. Don’t let it fall into the enemy’s hands. As for what you suspected as the work of His Excellency Andrzej Kmicicz, I don’t think it is possible. Because His Excellency Anjay is a first-class soldier in the Republic, this time it is also right. I have helped a lot. In this troubled season, you and Anjay should work together."

After listening, everyone looked solemn. Obviously, the prince meant to favor Andrzej Kmicicz.

"Everyone."

Seeing that everyone’s morale was a little low, Cheechen clapped his hands and said: “The prince just didn’t want us to have a head-on conflict with Anjay in the letter, but he didn’t prohibit us from recovering the arms. And Jay has nothing to say."

"But we have been searching for so long, and there is still no clue. The bandit dens have been wiped out, and it seems that they have worked for him." Fedot vomited.

These few raids on the forest robber's base were all led by Fedot. Because Fedot is very good at tracking and searching, even the hidden forest robber can't escape his pursuit.

Pidro smiled and patted Fedot on the shoulder, and said, "Brother, you don't understand. Since the arms were robbed by Anjay's men, there will be no results if you hunt down the forest robbers. We. This is just to divert the attention of the spies Anjay has placed around our camp, so that Ingrid and Fatima can act secretly."

"They are acting secretly? Why don't I know that Ingrid doesn't go out to purchase military supplies every day?" Fedot heard Pidro say that Ingrid and others were also investigating secretly, and asked strangely.

"Just let Ingrid tell you this." Cheerchen said to Fedot with a smile.

"Yes, captain." Ingrid stood up when she heard the words and opened the notepad in her hands.

"The duty of a quartermaster is not only to provide sufficient supplies for an army, but also to infer information such as the size of the enemy's army from the complicated material data. For example, if the enemy wants to know the number of our mercenary group, so experienced The quartermaster can infer the approximate number of our mercenary regiment from the amount of food we buy from the market in Polotsk. Suppose that Anjay’s people hide their arms somewhere, so such a large amount of arms will be I will certainly not send people to guard. Of course these people need to eat. As long as the people guarding the arms are of a large scale, I can judge from the Polotsk market purchase list."

"So what if Anjay transports supplies directly from his castle?" Fedot asked a question.

"Then Fatima will follow the convoy coming out of the castle to find a place to hide the arms. Unfortunately, there is no convoy for food delivery from the contract in the past few days." Ingrid explained.

"Well, Ingrid, tell me about your discovery." Cheer Chen said.

"In recent days, the biggest purchasers of food such as vegetables, bread and wine in the market are the defenders of Polotsk and our mercenary group. There are three lists of food for more than 30 people, including Splotsk Castle. And the two manor houses outside the city; nine lists of more than ten people, all of which are larger aristocratic families."

"Then Ingrid, which one do you think is the most suspicious?" Cheerchen asked bluntly.

"It's here." Ingrid pointed to a place name on the map called "Lubiqi".

"Why is it most likely here?" Fedot asked.

"The Rubić Estate here not only buys a huge amount of food from the city, but also constitutes a large part of the structure of alcohol. Obviously most of the people living in this estate are male "sex", and these wines are cheap. Inferior wine also shows that these people have very low ability to pay, which is in line with the basic characteristics of soldiers."

After hearing Ingrid's analysis, everyone nodded in approval.

"Then who owns this manor?" Piedro asked.

"This manor belongs to the Birlevich family. The heir of the Birlevich family in this generation is Miss Orina Birlevich, who is also the fiancée of Andrzej Kmicicz."

"The munitions must be in Rubić," Fedot exclaimed excitedly: "Head, give me sixty people. I'll take care of the munitions."

"Fedot, what can you do? There are more than 30 people, and it is easy to defend and difficult to attack in the manor. Our mercenary group now has no other firepower except for the dozen hand-made firearms. This equipment It's okay to fight forest bandits." Piedro poured cold water on Fedot.

"Didn't we have a warrant from that guy Anjay?" Fedot said uncertainly. Listen, he didn't have too much hope for the warrant.

Everyone is at a loss again~www.NovelMTL.com~ Maybe we can think of a way from Miss Orina. "At this moment, Fatima said suddenly.

Everyone looked at Fatima together, hoping she could talk about why she had this idea. After all, this Miss Orina Birlevich is Anjay's fiancée.

"I have been hiding at the back door of Polotsk Castle these days. I often hear the guards at the back door say that on the day the head of the regiment went to find Anjay, the Miss Orina Birlevich also went to ask Anjay. I. Kmicicz should not force the villagers’ property because of the expansion of the army, and said that if the military expenditure is not enough, she will voluntarily donate her money. Obviously, this is a kind lady, and she is also unaware of many things about Anjay Yes. If Miss Orina Birlevich is willing to take us into Rubić Manor, no one can stop it, because it is the property of the Birlevich family after all."

After listening to Piedro, Fedot and Ingrid, they all felt that Fatima's words were reasonable, and they all recommended themselves to see Miss Orina Birlevich for help. But Cheerchen thought it would be better to do it by himself.

"I'm going to meet this Miss Orina Birlevich." Chechen said. The last frontier of fire and sword
