Chapter 1172, Cannon Fodder

 Well, like Baron Tyrosin, Viscount Phoebe is also a nobleman passed down for many generations. Similarly, he has not touched a sword for a long time.

Although he has a slender figure, his belly is also bulging.

Therefore, he had no idea about the outbreak of war.

According to family records, small nobles like them are often cannon fodder in such wars!

Viscount Phoebe's great-great-grandfather was killed in a battle, but his superior nobles were unscathed.

Viscount Phoebe did not want to be used as cannon fodder and died on the battlefield like his great-great-grandfather.

But Viscount Phoebe's army this time was only slightly better than Baron Tyrosin's. He brought five knights, two hundred soldiers, and five hundred slaves.

No way, although the viscounty is higher than the barony, there is no qualitative difference between the two.

Only after the title reaches an earl can lower-level nobles be conferred, allowing the lower-level nobles to act as cannon fodder at critical moments.

Baron Tyrolson also felt the same way as Viscount Phoebe said.

However, compared to Viscount Phoebe, he is confident.

After all, he is protected by a great knight! This is almost the same level as the Earl.

You must know that Lord Xuxis went on this expedition, although he brought many knights with him, but there was only one great knight.

Of course, Baron Tyrosin did not dare to say that with a great knight, he would be truly safe.

Therefore, a private alliance with Viscount Phoebe is still possible.

At least when the critical moment comes, allies can be thrown out to block the gun.

In fact, private alliances like Viscount Phoebe and Baron Tyrosin can be found everywhere in the army of nobles who went on this expedition.

After all, the nobles of the Kingdom of Glens have been passed down for too long, and many noble families have lost the bravery of their ancestors. Rather than worrying about the Kingdom of Glens being defeated, they are more worried that after the Kingdom of Glens is defeated, they will become abandoned sons.

.

After marching for five days, the noble army led by Count Xuxis arrived at Rosegrass Castle.

Rosegrass Castle is the castle of the Marquis of Dakara, and it is also the gathering point for the noble army designated by His Majesty Piero III.

And outside this marquis territory is the territory of the Omile Federation.

As a great nobleman sitting on the border, the Marquis of Dakara is undoubtedly very powerful.

It is said that he has a knight captain under his command.

But even so, when Earl Xuxis's army arrived at Rosegrass Castle, they also received a lot of bad news.

In the border battle a few days ago, the Marquis of Dakara personally led his troops into the battle, but the result was a disastrous defeat and heavy losses.

It is said that the Marquis of Dakara himself was seriously injured and fell into a coma.

Therefore, after Lord Xuxis arranged the issue of garrisoning the noble army, when he entered the Rosegrass Castle for a meeting, it was the eldest son of the Marquis of Dakara who came out to receive him.

And when Earl Xuxis returned to his station, all good news came.

For example, in the previous border battle, the knight commander under the Marquis of Dakara personally took action and killed the two great knights of the Omile Federation, and the Omile Federation also suffered heavy losses in this battle.

In short, the nobles all know that the good news spread by Lord Xuxis is undoubtedly to appease people's hearts.

After all, if you tell everything, say that the Marquis of Dakara was seriously injured, lost more than 20 knights, two great knights, etc. in the first battle, wouldn't it greatly damage the morale of the Kingdom of Glens?

After arriving at Rosegrass Castle, the battle on the front line continued.

The Olemi Federation does not seem to have any intention of attacking the Kingdom of Glens in one fell swoop, but instead sends a small army to fight against the Kingdom of Glens.

Of course, now that we are here, it is impossible to escape.

In the following time, even Baron Tyrosin was sent to garrison a small town.

Of course, this may be due to the insufficient logistics supply of the Kingdom of Glens, or it may be that the small nobles are sent out first to consume the troops of the Olemi Federation.

This small town was called Laiying Town. Before the outbreak of the war, because it was close to the border and located on a transportation highway, the passing caravans made it extremely prosperous.

But after the war broke out, the caravans traveling between the two countries disappeared, causing the place to fall into depression.

However, the arrival of Baron Tyrosin restored some vitality to this town.

After all, Baron Tyrolson still has to enjoy himself after leaving the barony.

Delicious food is indispensable every day. In order to enjoy the delicious food, the Baron specially brought his own chef.

In addition, more than 300 people need to eat, drink and relieve themselves, which has a certain recovery effect on the town's economy.

Besides, knights and soldiers, when they have nothing to do, like to go to bars in small towns to drink, flirt with bar maids, etc., to express the depressed emotions caused by the war.

But having said that, since arriving in the small town of Laiying, there have been no big battles, but there have been several small battles.

The Omile Federation's reconnaissance cavalry detachment often passes near the town, and will even attack the town when nothing happens.

Of course, these reconnaissance cavalry detachments were handled by the knights, and Fang Xiaoyue ignored them.

After being stationed in the town for half a month, with the arrival of the messenger, Baron Tyrosin hurriedly got into the carriage and rushed towards Rosegrass Castle.

Fang Xiaoyue also got the news from this.

His Majesty Piero III personally led the royal army to the Rosegrass Castle.

It has to be said that His Majesty the King is so noble. At normal army marching speed, it only takes ten days at most to get from the capital of the Kingdom of Glens to the border.

After all, the territory of the Kingdom of Glens is not very large. Among the more than ten nearby countries, it can only be regarded as lower than average.

And it took His Majesty the King more than twenty days!

This is also an unreliable master!

But think about it, if it wasn't so unreliable, Piero III would not have desecrated the goddess of clear springs, nor would he have caused a war, and ended up dying in disgrace, becoming a typical negative example in the royal family.

Since he was not a formally canonized knight, Fang Xiaoyue was not qualified to accompany Baron Tyrosin when he went to see His Majesty the King.

But a few days later, when His Majesty the King summoned an army of nobles to march to the front line, Fang Xiaoyue saw the honor of Piero III from a distance.

An extremely ornately decorated earth dragon carries a loft on its back. His Majesty the King is sitting in it. From time to time, he pokes his head out and waves to the soldiers to boost their morale, but it also attracts the attention of those soldiers who have never seen the King's honor.

They cheered for a while, as if they had been given blood.

At this time, if an enemy appears in front of them, they will rush forward bravely and let the enemy know how powerful they are.
