TOV29
On the seventh day after Colin woke up, the Black Cavalry finally started advancing again.
However, the advance of the army was very slow.
It's not like an elite cavalry at all.
This kind of marching speed is very suitable for Colin, after all, his injury is not completely healed.
Raymond didn't know where he got a flat trailer, with some thatch on it as a buffer, and Colin was quite comfortable lying on it.
The spring sun is warm, making people drowsy.
Even if Colin, a vampire, doesn't like the sun, he slowly took a nap while basking.
Obviously, he was in the most elite army in the north, but Colin just gave out the lazy atmosphere of a leisure vacation.
Vera is not nearby.
After all, she is the adopted daughter of the Duke of the North.
Otherwise, isn't it a licking dog?
Even if you want to lick, it should be Colin's initiative.
After all, Vera's identity is much nobler than Colin's.
But looking at Colin's appearance, it was obvious that he had no plans to strike while the iron was hot.
Pick up a girl, if you want to leave.
This is the painful lesson of Colin's failed dog-licking career in his previous life.
The army slowly marched northward.
After gradually approaching Mirror Lake camp, they encountered more and more defeated soldiers.
The Marquis of Garcia did not refuse them, gathered them all, and arranged them as auxiliary soldiers in the rear of the army.
From these routs, Colin also slowly learned more details about the defeat of the Marquis of Charles.
This war actually started last year.
In early May of last year, under the leadership of the troll prince Gambik Volkin, an army of 300,000 trolls assembled at the border and prepared to march south.
On the northern side, Marquis Charles led an army of 200,000 to fight against it.
Among the two hundred thousand army, one hundred thousand were from the line of the Saint Hilde family - the Golden Lion Legion, and the other hundred thousand were the private armies of the major lords in the north.
For example, Colin's father, Baron Angele, personally led three thousand soldiers to the front line after receiving the order of the Duke of St. Hilde.
Although they had a disadvantage in terms of numbers, the human side did not lose momentum in the slightest.
After all, in recent decades, the Northern Territory has hardly lost in the war against trolls.
Especially the commander of the troll army, Prince Gambik, was an old acquaintance who had been beaten on the ground in various positions by Marquis Garcia.
Under such circumstances, the northern side would inevitably take it lightly.
But most people didn't realize, or they didn't want to admit, that Marquis Garcia and the Black Cavalry under his command were the guarantees of victory for the North on the front line.
Now that this "guarantee of victory" has disappeared, can Marquis Charles alone bear the burden of guarding the border?
Obviously, things did not develop as expected by the people of the North.
From the beginning of the confrontation period, the Marquis of Charles appeared to be somewhat powerless.
In the small-scale probing battle between the two sides, the Marquis of Charles was even more distracted and exhausted.
At this time, Prince Gambik, the troll commander, had already ascertained the reality of the duke’s son and understood that the commanding ability of the Marquis of Charles could not be compared with that of another Marquis.
As a result, the troll side gradually stepped up its offensive and broke through the defense line laid by the northern side in one fell swoop.
The Marquis of Charles retreated steadily and retreated to the vicinity of Mirror Lake.
There, he issued an emergency call-up order and placed the recruited soldiers in Mirror Lake camp as bait, and he led the main force to ambush nearby.
Later, when the trolls attacked Mirror Lake camp, the Marquis of Charles led an army out from behind.
Unfortunately, he still failed.
In addition to the two fatal mistakes that Colin analyzed before, there is another important reason for the fiasco of Marquis Charles - his plan was understood by the enemy in advance!
I don’t know if Prince Gambik really knew everything, or if he discovered the traces of the Marquis Charles’ army, or if someone had leaked military secrets...
In short, when the trolls attacked Mirror Lake camp, they did not attack with the entire army, but placed their main forces in the rear, waiting for the Marquis of Charles to dive into the net.
Therefore, the Marquis of Charles failed miserably again.
The 200,000 army was almost completely lost in this series of fiascos.
Even Marquis Charles himself is now being chased by the trolls and his whereabouts are unknown.
Oh no.
The whereabouts of the Marquis of Charles soon became clear.
On the thirteenth day of the Black Cavalry leaving the rushing river, they encountered a large defeated army head-on.
There were about 5,000 people in this defeated army, and it was Marquis Charles who led this defeated army.
Behind them, there is a chasing army of more than 8,000 trolls.
However, when these chasers saw the Black Cavalry flag from a distance, they turned around and gave up the pursuit.
They didn't even have the courage to tentatively attack.
The Marquis of Charles was finally saved.
However, his tragic fate has just begun.
After learning that the Marquis of Charles was in this defeated army, Colin also left the trailer, ready to go to see the show.
For the Marquis of Charles, Colin must have an unfavorable impression.
First of all, the death of his cheap father was mostly caused by this guy's command error.
This also led to the death of his predecessor and the assassination attempt later.
Moreover, after he escaped from Greycastle Town, he was baited to Mirror Lake camp by the Marquis Charles’ emergency call-up order, followed by this series of pursuits and near-death experiences...
Therefore, when Colin saw the embarrassed appearance of Marquis Charles, he was quite gloating.
"Uncle……"
At this time, Marquis Charles was kneeling halfway in front of Marquis Garcia, looking sad.
Although both are Marquis, their gold content is worlds apart.
What's more, this series of fiascos also caused the Marquis of Charles to completely fall from the altar.
It also highlights the importance of the Marquis of Garcia.
"You fought a good battle!" Marquis Garcia didn't let Charles get up but said with a frosty face.
"Uncle, I, I was careless..."
"Snapped!"
In full view, Marquis Garcia directly knocked Charles to the ground with a whip.
The audience was silent.
Some timid people even lowered their heads and dared not look anymore.
Although the Marquis of Garcia is the elder of the Marquis of Charles, he is the first heir to the Duke after all, the future lord of the North!
Under the full view of everyone, he was whipped like this...
"Asshole thing! If you lose, you lose. Besides incompetence, what reason do you have?"
When Charles heard the words, his whole body trembled, and he immediately crawled and crawled under the feet of Marquis Garcia, shouting:
"Uncle, I was wrong! I was wrong...
I'm sorry for the Saint Hilde family, sorry for the dead soldiers, sorry for the people of the north, woooo..."
The dignified Marquis, the future Lord of the North, is so in the crowd --
Cried.
