Reborn Dragon Vein Warlock, Genius Beauty Mage
Chapter 248 Battlefield (2)
Christine and her entourage arrived in Toulouse, accepted the banquet hosted by the Count of Toulouse, and a series of events that I will not go into details. They were similar to those in Bordeaux.
Just say that Matthew Lauren, the commander of the "Carolingian Knights" who is responsible for the demon interception operation in Pyrenees County and an 11th-level knight with the title of hereditary honorary baron, is in a state of collapse at the moment.
In less than a month of fighting, he led his team to kill a large number of demons that were harassing the north. Although he was unlucky enough to encounter a master-level demon, fortunately, he found it early and retreated in time without causing any losses.
After learning that the king would send a master to support, the morale of the detachment increased, and everyone would be much safer in the future. Unexpectedly, the master class came, but Marquis Stewart also came with him.
As the captain of the three major knights in the kingdom, Knight Matthew Lauren often interacts with nobles. Not only marching and fighting, but also going out in peacetime. Nobles, women, and mages are also the three major troubles.
Nobles, even those with good physical fitness, will not lose their dignity. This means bringing a lot of supplies and servants, which also means trouble.
A woman refers to a lady with a certain status. In addition to the problem of being a noble, she also has a delicate body and expensive body. She especially likes to be picky about the accommodation environment. However, it is not common to fight in the wild and sleep in the open air.
Battle mages in the army are another matter. This refers to mages belonging to guilds or retainers of nobles. All of them are weak and cannot bear the fatigue, and their lack of battlefield experience is a huge hindrance in the early stage.
And this Marquis of Stewart is a noble, a woman, and a mage all three, and can be said to be the top trouble among troubles. When they arrived, they brought with them more than fifty maids, cooks, servants, and grooms, and a whole fleet of more than twenty carriages loaded with various supplies.
If it was a city defense battle, there would be nothing to say. You could live in a comfortable manor, but what was devastating was that the Marquis of Stewart was going to follow him to the battlefield.
The great God of Order is above, bringing such a huge team to the battlefield. As long as the devil is not a fool, he can be found at a distance. Even if the devil was a fool, he would have had time to run away after seeing it, because it was impossible for Knight Matthew Lauren to leave the Lord Marquis alone and chase the devil.
Just when he fell into deep doubts about why the Marquis of Stewart did not go to the other two counties, the knights below came to report that the Marquis invited him to come.
Knight Matthew Laurent did not dare to neglect and immediately went to the manor where Marquis Stewart was temporarily staying.
When he was led into the living room by the maid, he found that he was the last to arrive.
Even if you have never seen him before, you can recognize at a glance that the person sitting in the main seat is Marquis Stewart. He is perfect in both appearance and temperament. Sitting next to her was a woman who looked to be in her thirties and was wearing a battle armor. She was obviously a master swordsman from the Stewart family. There is also a thirteenth-level knight, an eleventh-level druid, and an eleventh-level knight. They are high-level professionals sent by the Marquis of Limousin to support them.
"Greetings to you, Your Majesty the Marquis." Knight Matthew Lauren saluted.
"Thank you for your hard work, Baron Lauren, please take a seat." Kristen nodded in return.
"Thank you, Lord Marquis."
"Everyone is here, let me tell you the next arrangements."
Several people pretended to be listening.
"First of all, according to my agreement with His Majesty the King, I will not interfere with the command of the army during the interception of the demonic attack."
Knight Matthew Lauren breathed a sigh of relief after listening to Christine's words. It was forbidden to go out too much when marching and fighting. The deputy regimental commander had specially submitted suggestions on this matter, and it seemed to have worked.
"Similarly, according to the agreement between me and His Majesty, we are only responsible for dealing with master-level demons and do not need to participate in the rest of the battle. I want to emphasize this again."
Several people nodded in agreement.
"We have the ability to protect ourselves when dealing with ordinary demons, so you don't need to consider dividing your troops for protection when formulating your battle plan."
Knight Matthew Laurent quickly expressed his stance: "Thank you, Lord Marquis."
If there are nobles accompanying them, it is inevitable to arrange escorts, and the manpower cannot be reduced, which greatly affects the combat power against the demons. Now that the Marquis of Stewart has taken the initiative to say that he is not needed, it has relieved a lot of the burden on Knight Matthew Laurent.
Christine then asked: "Baron Lauren, you are the commander, is there anything else you want to explain?"
"My Lord Marquis, there is no more."
Kristine turned to the other three and asked: "What suggestions do you have?"
"My Lord Marquis, there is no more."
"so be it."
At this time, the captain of the guard, Knight Bella, stepped forward and said: "Everyone, please follow me, and we will discuss the specific matters."
The knights are responsible for marching and fighting, and it is impossible for the Marquis to personally intervene in these small matters.
This meeting is very short, but it must be held. Some things need to be explained in advance. And it must be Christine who calls it, because she is the noble with the highest title.
In fact, before Christine arrived, Knight Matthew Lauren had already met the three people sent by the Marquis of Limousin and had discussed it with them, so everyone just said there was no problem.
After arriving in another room, Knight Matthew Lauren asked the question he was most concerned about: "Knight Bella, how did the Marquis arrange his entourage for this battle?"
"The Marquis will ride in her carriage with Master Carlotani and Butler Elena, as well as a baggage carriage and a cook. I will lead twenty-five cavalry guards, and that's it."
"Where are the other servants of the Marquis?"
"They all stayed in the city."
"Thank you for your answer."
Knight Matthew Laurent was very surprised that the Marquis only brought these people.
Bella naturally saw what the other party was thinking, so she said: "Baron Laurent, the Marquis has personally participated in and commanded many battles. You should understand what I am talking about."
Matthew Laurent Knight hurriedly said: "Of course I understand, and I apologize for it."
He knew that he had made a cognitive mistake, and was preconceivedly confused by the other party's title of "the most beautiful woman in the Kingdom of France". How could the opponent be promoted from baron to marquis within a few years and personally participate in many battles, so how could he know nothing about how to march and fight.
It was also proven during the actual departure that it was not the Marquis of Stewart that slowed down the march, but the baggage carriages of his own army.
Again, the wild terrain is all native terrain. The demon army may be able to pass directly through grassland, wasteland, and rocky beaches, but it will never be possible to pass through the forest. It would be a waste of time, so marching along the existing roads is the best option.
The human army is naturally gone, and in this case bringing a baggage carriage will provide better supplies.
