Chapter seventy-ninth, close the gates
Rudolph's army swept the entire camp with drum beats, capturing many prisoners who had no time to escape, but most were wounded and abandoned unmarked Brotherhood warriors.
"Search the camp, there must be spoils, find them." Rudolph walked in the camp under the protection of several guards. The smoke and dust that had not yet faded away, and the air was still filled with a pungent smell.
"It's an adult." Taylor quickly agreed. The young nobleman seemed to have a special paranoid about property.
"Dondon~~." A sound of horse hooves sounded, and Rudolph and others looked in the direction where the horse hooves sounded. The guards quickly grabbed their weapons, but Baron Hedwig and Sir Buckhouse were riding over.
"Shh, Houchi~~." Baron Hedwig came to Rudolph and others with smoke and gunpowder, tightened the reins of the horse, and jumped off the horse.
"It's Baron Hedwig, he is your father's vassal." Taylor came over at this time and introduced to Rudolf.
"Have I seen him before?" Rudolph asked carefully. He didn't know if he knew Baron Hedwig before traveling through time.
"Of course not. In the past, the Count would not let people outside the castle contact you for your uh, safety." Taylor hesitated. In the past, Rudolph was never allowed to attend banquets and was prohibited from making friends with his vassals. Everything was for the sake of Ketrisy. It turned out that Earl Schwartz's layout was so far-reaching.
"Ahh, so that's it." However, Rudolph breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that he would not be in danger of being exposed. If he didn't know them at all, if he let it go, if he was suspected of being a wizard, that would be bad.
"Sir Rudolph, first of all, I want to thank you for your help. It has really helped all of us." Baron Hedwig took off his helmet, straightened his back, placed his right finger on his chest, lowered his head, stretched his right foot forward, and saluted Rudolph.
"Schwartz County is my home, and this is what I deserve." Rudolf quickly replied that he was not the vassal of Baron Hedwig. Even if he was the first heir to Count Schwartz, he was now only at the same level as these vassals.
"Your sudden appearance is like a dew in summer and a warmer in winter. Hahaha, we should hold a good party to celebrate this victory." Sir Buckhouse walked over with great strides, and he said to everyone with a smile.
"Sir Buckhouse, this is Lord Rudolph, the eldest son of Count Schwartz. Lord Rudolph is Lord Rudolph, one of the main commanders of this battle to defend the castle." Baron Hedwig introduced to Rudolph.
"Just." Rudolph said after saluting Sir Buckhouse politely.
"There are also a few adults, and they must also want to know you. The Count protected you so well in the past." Baron Hedwig said to Rudolph with a smile.
Just when Rudolph knew each other and several vassals, there was a man on the wall full of jealousy. She was Mrs. Agnes. When she heard that the troops coming to support were Rudolph, she was completely shocked. The Rudolph, who was basically brainless except for brute force, could actually bring an army back.
"Mother, what should we do now?" Katrisy also stood on the city wall in surprise. He looked at the army led by Rudolph. It was obvious that it was a well-trained army.
"We must not let them enter the castle and order the soldiers to close the city gate." Mrs. Agnes's first reaction was to close the castle, and she must not let Rudolph bring his army into the castle. She felt that when Count Schwartz was unconscious at this time, Rudolph would definitely kill her and her son.
"Yes, you can't let him in." Ketrisey looked outside the castle, and Rudolph had a great time talking with the vassals. He swallowed and spitted. He led the elite Schwartz army to return home at the border. However, Rudolph brought a group of soldiers to save the castle and defeat the enemy. This victory really made him feel embarrassed.
"That's it." Mrs. Agnes turned around and left the city wall, and she was indignant. Why did she defeat the rebels of the Flagless Brotherhood not say her son, but the son of an Italian prostitute.
"Gagahahahahahahaha~~~." The iron gate of the castle slowly fell, and the wooden bridge rose under the leadership of the winch chain. This sudden action surprised everyone outside the castle. I wonder what was going on?
"What happened? Why did they close the castle?"
"Has an enemy entered the castle?"
"Has a rebellion happened?"
The rumors immediately seemed to have grown legs, and people blocked outside the castle were talking about it. Some people thought that the people from the Flagless Brotherhood had been fought back and became riot.
"Taylor, Rodney immediately sent someone to take care of the prisoners." Rudolph frowned, and he immediately ordered Taylor and Rodney.
"Yes." The two of them hurriedly left and went to arrange for the custody of the prisoners.
"Damn guy, I must kill you." Benson scurried among the prisoners. He lowered his head like other prisoners, but his one-eyed eyes stared in Rudolph's direction, constantly looking for opportunities. There was a sharp blade as small as a willow leaf hidden in his sleeve. It was his trump card. He could kill Rudolph with just one blow to the key point. Benson thought confidently.
"Don't move around, otherwise you will be ready to eat a knife." At this time, several teams of Rudolph's soldiers came over, and they nervously held the weapons in their hands and said to the prisoners.
"What happened?" The prisoners didn't know what happened, and they looked at each other. The sudden additional soldiers caused panic among the prisoners.
"They want to kill us, they want to kill us." When Benson saw the opportunity, he immediately created chaos in the crowd and shouted loudly. Sure enough, under his instigation, the prisoners stood up and the guards were nervous. After all, they had never had the experience of caring for the prisoners.
"Let's go."
"Escape quickly."
"They're going to kill us."
The prisoners were in a mess, and even if they sent additional guards, they could not control themselves. Many prisoners took the opportunity to prepare to escape.
"Hold it." Rodney came on a horse with the mercenary cavalry. Under the pursuit of the cavalry, the escaped prisoners were knocked out from behind.
"Have you captured all the prisoners?" Rudolph noticed the commotion behind him, and he hurriedly brought the others to come. These prisoners were laborers, and people in this era were very precious wealth.
"Don't worry, Lord Rudolph has all been caught." Taylor and Rodney quickly reported.
"Fortunately, there are enough staff and the subordinates of all the lords to help." Taylor said to Rudolph.
"It's really strange, why did the castle gate suddenly close? Is something happening?" Sir Buckhouse grabbed his hair, and he looked at the castle in wonder.
