When everyone gasped, Nalant was not idle and immediately put forward his own suggestions.
"Baron Nalant is right, you are truly a blessing from the God of Glory to our Agate Principality!" King Culver immediately nodded in agreement.
The other counts came to their senses and agreed one after another. Even Rakov had to agree with what Nalant said, lowering his head and saying nothing.
"Okay, now act according to Baron Nalant's words. You quickly arrange for the evacuation of your subordinates. Remember, you must maintain normal conditions and do not let the enemy notice that there is a problem!"
"Your Majesty, the stone bridge is already crowded with guards crossing the river!" an earl frowned.
"You should immediately send people to the other side to block the following teams, and the teams that have already crossed the river must find an excuse to make them retreat quickly!"
"As for my Iron Guard Knights and your six Extraordinary Knights, they are all on standby. We even have to pretend to be ready to dismount and rest. Otherwise, once the Warcraft Cavalry at the bottom of the river discovers a problem, we may not be able to cross the river at all!" King Karl
Fo gave a detailed retreat plan.
"Yes, Your Majesty!" All the counts knew that they were buying time at this moment, and tried their best to delay the retreat to the other side before the other party found out the clues.
In addition, everyone had no objection to the final retreat of the Extraordinary Cavalry Regiment. After all, it only took ten minutes. There were already tens of thousands of ordinary guards crossing the river from the stone bridge. Leaving them here was also something that the earls could not afford to lose.
.
"Go and execute it immediately!"
Next, following King Culver's order, the earls quickly began to take action.
Of course, in order to avoid alerting the enemy, all the earls sent their heirs to arrange the retreat of the ordinary guards.
Stella had been following Bernard before, and now she received Bernard's instructions. She nodded to Nalant, and without having time to say anything else, she quickly headed towards the bridge to look for her guard commander.
Like Stella, some of the other earl's children did not cross the river to find the guard commander.
Two of them carefully blended in with the guards and slid to the other side on a raft, and then immediately started to leave no trace on the shore to prevent the following teams from gathering.
Soon, the actions of the earl heirs had an effect, and the people on the other side of the river who originally wanted to continue crossing the river turned back.
As for the people on the bridge, because they couldn't do anything too obvious, they were still allowed to cross the river.
However, after crossing the river, these guards were immediately ordered by their respective commanders to begin carrying the loot.
That's right, it's about transporting trophies.
What if we just let all the guards retreat huh?
Then no matter how stupid the ambush soldiers at the bottom of the river are, they can still spot the problem.
And these guards who had just crossed the river began to carry the captured weapons and equipment or lead their horses back across the river, which made the retreat more reasonable.
At least it can temporarily confuse the ambush at the bottom of the river and buy time for evacuation.
Soon, the guards carrying the goods began to evacuate in an orderly manner, and seeing this scene, both King Culver and the earls were a little nervous.
I was afraid that the Warcraft Legion at the bottom of the river would immediately revolt upon seeing this scene, which would be troublesome.
Fortunately, as the guards began to retreat in an orderly manner, the water surface remained calm, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
"What's going on? Why are these guys from the Agate Principality starting to return again?" Under the water, Bishop Ike naturally had a panoramic view of the situation on the shore.
When I saw groups of guards starting to turn back again, I suddenly became a little surprised and confused.
"Your Majesty Bishop, they are returning with loot!" the subordinate next to Bishop Ike carefully explained.
"Of course I know they are carrying trophies, but do they need to be so impatient?" Bishop Ike replied angrily.
However, after all, he really didn't know what to do for the moment.
According to the prior agreement, they waited for the guards of the Northern Principality and the three thousand paladins of their church to return after all the teams from the Agate Principality had crossed the river.
That was the time for them to suddenly burst out from the bottom of the river.
Not only does it cut off the opponent's back, but it can also form a two-sided attack with the team in front.
"Sir Bishop, the rural nobles in this continent are all natives who have never seen the market. Ordinary armors and swords are great wealth to them. It is probably because of this that they are so eager to carry the loot."
"Yeah!" Although he had doubts, this was not the agreed attack point, so Bishop Ike chose to continue to wait and see.
After all, Meyer and the three thousand paladins in the distance should also be paying attention to the situation here, and all his actions are mainly to cooperate with them.
In fact, Bishop Ike was right. The three thousand paladins who pretended to be escaping several miles away hid in a woods after they were no longer pursued, and then looked at the situation here from a distance.
It was just because King Culver and a group of earl's extraordinary knights dismounted to rest on the spot, so they failed to notice the movement on the stone bridge and thought that the Agate Principality was still crossing the river.
At that time, they will just wait for them to set up camp here or move forward again, and then they will launch an attack.
Logically speaking, the waiting time does not need to be too long. At most, one or two disappear before the results are obtained, so they are even taking a break.
And just like this, both sides had their own agenda, and time passed by. In just seven or eight minutes, most of the guards who originally crossed the river had withdrawn.
This was to avoid arousing the suspicion of the ambush soldiers and to pretend to move the loot in an orderly manner.
If they had bravely returned empty-handed, I'm afraid all the tens of thousands of guards would have crossed the river and returned.
"Narant, you did a good job today!" Seeing that the situation was still going according to plan, Bernard came to Narant, patted his shoulder and praised him.
Now Narant is his prospective son-in-law, and Narant's outstanding performance is the glory of the Tulip family.
The other earls and King Culver also looked at Nalante kindly, and now their anxious moods could finally calm down.
As long as the last half of the guards have withdrawn to the other side, all the extraordinary knights can quickly withdraw.
They could even aim the three hundred crossbows and trebuchets at the river, so that the church would be counter-attacked if they failed to ambush.
If we can create an unprecedented army of Warcraft in the Church in one fell swoop, it will be of great help to the morale of the enemy and boost the morale of our own side.
"Haha, Lord Earl, I'm just lucky, I happened to find it!" Nalant also showed a relaxed smile.
Saving the Agate Principality means saving this big ship. He is naturally happy as he is on the same ship.
And just when Nalant and the other counts thought that things were going to go in a good direction, what they didn't know was...
Among the retreating crowd, there was a young man dressed as a noble heir and several people dressed as guards, with anxious expressions on their faces.
"Your Excellency, what should we do now? If we delay it any longer, our Holy Cult's plan may come to nothing!" One of the men dressed as guards asked the noble heir.
"Asshole, why was your army of Warcraft discovered? Why exactly? Didn't you agree that this plan would definitely wipe out all the Agate Principality's army?" The noble heir gritted his teeth.
