Chapter 145 The boss is dead
Tada, at this moment, a horse crossed the low mountain and stood on the top of the mountain.
The man's black hair was scattered, his clothes and armor were torn and ragged, and he looked like a beggar, but his body was covered with blood. The sword pointed to the ground diagonally, and the blood flowed down the sword body, gathered at the tip of the sword and fell to the ground.
Just at this moment, a beam of light shone in the clouds on the low mountain, illuminating the man's face, it was Corion.
In his hand, he was carrying a human head with rough and messy hair. Blood dripped from the cross section of his neck. The human head and facial expression were ferocious. Even if he died, he still had a trace of lingering cruelty.
Blackbeard died at Corion's hands.
Corion stood on a high place, passing through a beam of light from the dark clouds as his background, setting him like an arrogant god of war.
The robber at the foot of the short mountain looked at this scene blankly, and even forgot to be on the battlefield at this moment, widened his eyes and murmured with bitterness: "Old...Boss..."
The Blackbeard died, and the remaining morale of the robbers finally completely collapsed.
By the bang, a scimitar fell from mid-air to the ground. Its owner bent his legs and fell to the ground, choosing to surrender.
Some robbers on the edge of the battlefield began to escape. Eugen immediately ordered the escort team's only remaining light cavalrymen to pursue him. He did not want to let any robbers go.
The Blackbeard died in battle, and the robbers had lost their backbone and had no meaning to continue fighting.
As the robbers put down their weapons one after another, the Imperial soldiers stepped forward to control them all, and Eugen walked to Corion on the low mountain.
Corion looked at Eugen and smiled. Before he could say a word, he fell down from his horse.
Eugen quickly helped him up and ordered the soldiers to find a few marching blankets and spread them out to let Corion lie on it.
At the same time, he ordered a light cavalry who was in good condition to go to San Marino quickly and asked people there to help them clean up the battlefield and take care of the wounded.
A fierce battle finally ended with the victory of the escort team.
Even though Eugen had made sufficient preparations before and weakened the enemy's strength to the greatest extent, this was still a hard battle. The escort team lost nearly two-thirds of the people, and only more than fifty people survived.
Fortunately, Corion killed the Blackbeard and ended the battle early. If the battle continued, the escort team would probably not have more than ten fingers to survive.
Eugen arranged Corian and the escort team, breathed a sigh of relief, and he lay on his back on the ground. At this moment, he was exhausted physically and mentally, and the wound on his body was still aching. If he hadn't been on the battlefield, he would have even wanted to fall asleep directly.
"Eugen, Lord Eugen."
At this moment, a weak voice sounded in Eugen's left ear. He looked at the sound and saw Housekeeper West standing next to him.
"Butler West, you... your hands..." Eugen shook his body and sat up suddenly. His voice was very sad. He looked at Butler West's left hand, and saw that his left arm and elbow were empty, and a white cloth soaked in blood was bandaged there.
Housekeeper West smiled bitterly on his pale face and sighed, "Oh, I almost smeared my neck by a robber with a knife. In desperation, I used my hand to block it, and that's it."
The housekeeper is old and has to bear the pain of breaking his arm. Looking at the beads of sweat that are emerging from his face due to pain, Eugen said with tears in his tears: "Butler West, I, I'm sorry for you! If it weren't for me, you wouldn't have to walk out of Vienna!"
Eugen is very guilty now. He never expected that things would come to this point. Along the way, he has been as cautious as possible, but he still paid such a heavy price.
"Forget it, Lord Eugen doesn't have to blame himself. It is inevitable that on the battlefield. Besides, we have so many warriors from the empire who stay here forever. I am already very lucky to be like this." Butler West said, looking at the corpses all over the place, with an unbearable look in his eyes.
These soldiers were from the Royal Guard, and the Butler of West knew many of them, but now most of them died here.
"They are all those damn Saxons!" Eugen's eyes flashed with hatred. He clenched his fists and gritted his teeth and said, "They were savage and cruel, and even secretly colluded with despicable robbers to enter the empire's hinterland to attack us. Last time it was Corion, this time it was me, and I don't know who it will be next time!"
Eugen's eyes became more and more cruel, and there was a cold chill in his voice: "I will not let them go. One day, I will make them pay the price they deserve!"
Butler West looked at Eugen deeply, speechless. The Eugen had a certain intimidating temperament. Although it was just a clue, West could feel that one day, he would definitely shake the entire empire and even the entire European continent.
A moment later, the support troops from the city of San Marino arrived, protecting Eugen and others, and at the same time, more than half of them were assigned to take care of the injured.
Before Corion's old injury was healed, new injuries appeared, but this guy's life was even harder than Xiao Qiang. Even in this case, he still maintained his endless vitality.
Eugen knew some modern knowledge about handling trauma. After guiding the nursing staff, he felt relieved.
This time, Eugen stayed in San Marino for another whole month.
The original escort period has already exceeded, but no one will be stupid enough to blame anything at this time. The escort team was sent by Prince Eugen. The accusation of this mission is to blame Prince Eugen himself.
Now, Prince Eugen is furious because of the news that Housekeeper West had broken his arm and even proposed to launch a massive operation to eliminate robbers in the empire.
A few days later, the huge war machine within the Habsburg family was activated, and thousands of troops were wiped out in Austria and Italy, and a large number of famous and unknown robbers were either killed or destroyed, or arrested and imprisoned.
The other vassal states also responded. Although the army did not appear in full, it became very active. In just ten days, there were as many as hundreds of robber-like organizations removed from the country, with a total number of more than 10,000 people, which was comparable to a national war.
After the robbers were eliminated, the domestic situation suddenly became much clearer, the lives of people from all over the country became much more stable, and there were many praises in the market.
This action also made many princes in the country recognize it. Although Prince Eugen is old, his power remains unchanged and his wisdom is even more outstanding. If he angers him, the consequences will be quite terrible.
