Chapter 8 I Want Money
When Tyrande saw the Roman light cavalry that had attacked, he knew that his situation was hopeless and he was unable to save it.
He stopped chasing Eugen and sighed deeply, "Oh, I didn't expect that he was defeated by an unknown Eugen. Could it be that Eugen is a famous general with a lot of names?"
While sighing, he raised his mask helplessly and showed his face.
There is an implicit meaning between the knight and the knight, that is, the conversation between the sword and the sword has ended and the two sides can have a conversation.
Eugen, who had been running ahead, stopped his mount and turned to look at Tyrande.
At this moment, he suddenly realized that under the mask of the re-equipped knight, there was nothing but an ordinary face. The thick beard, deep eye sockets, and rough and thick lips looked like a farmer.
The long scar on his face looked a little creepy, which also made him look even more fierce.
"Tell me, the little guy in Habsburg, how did you think of these tactics? Could it be that your elders gave you the idea?" Tyrande looked at Eugen, as if he had regarded him as an opponent who could talk to equally, but there was still a contempt in his words.
Eugen knew that the elder he was referring to was the famous Prince Eugen.
"There is no other reason. I can think of these things, just because I am weaker than you." Behind Tyrande, Rambo had already rushed over with a few spearmen. Eugen saw his backup coming, and his tone became tough. "Also, I am not a little guy from Habsburg, my name is Eugen."
"Haha, hahaha. Are you weaker than me? Interesting." Tyrande actually laughed when he heard Eugen's answer, making Eugen confused.
Suddenly, he pulled out the sword in his hand and pointed it at Eugen and shouted angrily: "Little guy from Habsburg, do you think you can ridicule a knight if you defeat me by chance? I tell you that I can be defeated, but you will never be insulted."
As he said that, Tyrande roared, as if he was about to rush forward again.
Rambo and others rushed up, and Eugen hid behind the crowd without any backbone. He was confused by Tyrande's sudden anger.
"What do you mean by this? I'm just telling the truth. I really don't know how these ancient Europeans' minds turn." Eugen could only expose these complaints. To be honest, he doesn't know how to deal with Tyrande now.
Rambo stood in front and said respectfully to Tyrande: "Marantor, please calm down. We lords have no intention of insulting you. On the contrary, we are deeply impressed by your bravery."
Eugen didn't understand what was going on, why did Rambo suddenly praise the enemy? Is he going to rebel? But he also knew that it was not the time to undermine the situation, so he nodded and said, "Yes, yes, yes, deep impression, deep impression, the marshal is really brave."
Hearing Eugen admitting, Tyrande's face looked better. He inserted his sword back into the scabbard and said proudly: "Is that true? Since that's the case, let me just let me go!"
The tone of this sentence is not like begging for mercy, but rather like an order.
Rambo's smile was still polite, and he only heard his tone relaxedly: "Of course, we will let you go sooner or later, but your family will need to pay a small price. Before that, please come to us for a while."
Only then did Eugen understand that although he defeated Tyrande, he would definitely not be able to kill him, so he could only deduct some ransom.
Even some knights who value honor might just let Tyrande go directly, and they would like to say: You played well, I'll let you go back, and we'll fight for two more times when you call me and call me.
This is the war in Europe. Unless it is a long-standing revenge, the nobles will not be killed in most cases.
Eugen also had only a few understandings of these, and the only ones he learned through movies and TV series.
Fortunately, Rambo helped him handle these things, which made him much easier. At this moment, Tyrande was still a little angry when he heard Rambo's words, but he was not good to say anything. Since he was following the rules of the nobles, he would be a bit shameless if he was bothering him.
The reinforcements were no longer expected, and the commander was captured by the enemy. When Corion led the light cavalry troops to arrive from the rear, the remaining heavy cavalry finally gave up their resistance and obediently surrendered.
In this way, nearly 100 cavalrymen were lost, leaving more than 200 captured. The three-to-one battle loss ratio was already quite tragic, after all, they were responsible for the most dangerous attack tasks.
After Tyrande handed over the weapon, Eugen did not tie him up out of respect, but appointed four confidants to take strict supervision.
Then, he looked at the heavy cavalry surrounded by spearmen, and his eyes lit up.
Don't get me wrong. Lord Eugen did not have any strange hobbies for these burly and majestic rough men. In his opinion, these heavy cavalry were more like piles of moving gold coins.
"Rambo, hurry up, help me count how much the equipment of these heavy cavalry is worth and how much we made in this battle." The expression on Eugen's face when he said this was not as good as a noble, but instead he looked like a cunning businessman.
Rambo could also understand the head of the family's current mood. In fact, he was also excited in his heart, but he did not show it.
"Sir, the value of these heavy cavalry is indeed very important, and if we can use these equipment to arm our heavy cavalry, the future interests will be even more unimaginable." The heavy cavalry is still the ultimate army of this era, and any commander will hope that he has more heavy cavalry.
However, Eugen looked like he was greedy and short-sighted, and he grinned without hesitation, and a drop of crystal drool slowly flowed down from the corner of his mouth.
"No, I don't want these equipment, I'll sell them all. I want money, I want a lot of gold coins."
Rambo was fine with the performance of the head of the family, but the spearmen next to him looked at each other with a slight contempt on his face.
