The Knight's Journey to the Empire
Chapter 41: The arrogant young master, the unlucky guy who got ambushed
After the son of the Grand Duke of the Principality of Glia arrived at the military camp as a representative of the royal family, he not only failed to boost morale, but also almost caused the military camp to fall into a huge crisis.
This young master spent his days in the military camp either idling around or fighting cocks and walking dogs, doing whatever he wanted.
He even rode wildly in the military camp in the middle of the night, beating and scolding the soldiers indiscriminately, causing chaos in the camp. Not only did it fail to boost morale, it almost caused a mutiny in the army.
You know, no matter when or where, the military camp is a truly grim place.
Soldiers have to live their lives in fear with their heads hanging on their belts. You can imagine how great the mental pressure is.
Especially now that the two countries are still at war, the mental pressure is even greater.
In the traditional military regulations in Chinese history, there is a strict military discipline of "Seventeen Prohibitions and Fifty-four Beheadings".
From this we can see how strict the rules in the military camp are.
Moreover, in this traditional army with obvious class colors, the hierarchy is strict and the management is closed. The army can only be controlled by bullying by officers and ignorance of soldiers. On weekdays, it relies entirely on military prostitutes to suppress the army.
From this we can see how heavy the mental pressure accumulated over the years is for the soldiers in the military camp.
Moreover, during the war, no one was sure of life or death, and the future was uncertain. No one knew whether they could come back alive tomorrow, and everyone was on the verge of a mental breakdown.
At this time in the military camp, any slight disturbance, perhaps just the scream of an ordinary soldier having a nightmare, could completely detonate the hysterical and crazy atmosphere in the camp.
By then, the soldiers will be completely free from the constraints of military prostitutes, and they will pick up weapons and take revenge for their grievances.
Hunt down the bullying officer, avenge the old enemy, kill and die together, and die together. On the second day, all that was left was a pile of corpses and blood.
This is why, in most of the ancient battles where the outnumbered side defeated the larger force, a small force of only a few hundred or a few thousand men was able to launch a night attack on a military camp of tens of thousands of men, and often achieve a great victory.
The greatest harm does not come from external attacks, but from the outbreak of internal conflicts.
Obviously, the young master's actions are undoubtedly adding fuel to the fire.
However, as he is the son of the Grand Duke of the Principality of Glia and now a representative of the royal family, due to his status, he cannot be arrested at will, nor can he be recalled by the Grand Duke.
This made old General Bill August very anxious.
There is no such thing as the emperor being punished the same as the common people when breaking the law in this world.
In this world, nobility represents privilege.
If nobles killed ordinary civilians, they only had to pay the corresponding compensation. In their eyes, people could no longer be called "people", but rather commodities that walked on two feet, or animals.
The old general felt lucky that the Principality of Glia had now pushed the front line into the territory of the Kingdom of Midburg, and most of the troops in the rear camps had been transferred to the front line.
Moreover, the old general himself would go to the front line with the army, so there was no need to deal with this playboy in a hurry.
Facts have proved that no matter what time, we cannot delay doing things, as delaying will definitely lead to greater consequences.
And this was also the biggest mistake the old general made.
……
As the saying goes, birds of a feather flock together.
There were more than one noble who brought their offspring to fight in the war, hoping that their offspring would be trained and grown.
Among these aristocratic descendants of different backgrounds, there must be some prodigals.
Look, two or three of the playboys have been fawning on the eldest son and have come together with him to go hunting in the Barinas Mountains today.
Originally, his only beloved son was traveling far away, and to such a dangerous place as a battlefield, the Grand Duke of the Principality of Glia, as a "son-protecting maniac", must have sent elite soldiers to protect him.
But unfortunately, this group of elite soldiers and generals were borrowed by the old general.
In General Bill's plan, the "surprise attack" in "Step 2: Send out surprise attacks" refers to the team of elite soldiers sent by the Grand Duke of the Principality of Glia to closely protect the safety of the eldest son.
This is the most elite force in the entire Principality of Glia, bar none.
Without them, the old general's second plan would not have been so easy to succeed.
Of course, to be on the safe side, General Bill sent a private army led by Earl Alex to protect the young master.
The noble private army of Earl Alex of the Principality of Golia is considered one of the elite troops among the noble private army of the entire Principality of Golia.
In this rear area, the strength of this private army is indeed enough.
But it was obvious that this playboy had started to act up again.
Normally, everything was fine. No matter how this "naughty kid" made trouble, Earl Alex would lead his elite private army to guard him by his side, loyally carrying out the tasks assigned to him by the old general and protecting the eldest son closely.
But this time, hunting in the mountains is not possible.
Because of the large crowd, the prey was scared away from a distance, which disturbed the "elegance" of the eldest son.
So, with the help of his stupid teammates, the eldest son ordered Earl Alex and his private army to stay where they were, while he and several other noblemen went into the mountains to hunt alone.
Needless to say, Earl Alec would definitely not agree, and he wanted to continue to catch up.
But when an arrow shot by the eldest son injured a loyal and highly trusted guard, Earl Alex became furious and decided to let him go.
He was really afraid that he would not be able to control himself and would chop this "naughty kid" to death.
Of course, for safety reasons, Earl Alex also asked his eldest son to follow him for protection.
It was another knight who had not spoken.
Moreover, Earl Alex also received the news that the old general had invaded the territory of the Kingdom of Midburg. Now this place is the rear area. If nothing unexpected happens, there will be no enemy troops here.
As the saying goes, if nothing unexpected happens, then something unexpected is bound to happen.
And this accident was that Soran and his group accidentally entered the enemy's rear.
……
This is a big fish. If you can catch it, your life will be secure.
This was Soran's first reaction after guessing the identities of the nobles.
Immediately, Soran asked Martin to continue to keep watch, and at the critical moment he could make noises and disguise himself as prey to attract them. Then he returned to the troops and began to set traps.
The blood-parasitic vine can come in handy this time.
The material of the parasitic blood vine is extremely tough and can only be cut with a sharp blade, making it suitable for making a lasso.
This is probably the most expensive tripwire in the world's history.
Moreover, the fallen leaves around are thick and as high as the calves. It is quite suitable for Tibetans to lie down and rummage through them.
Young people all believe in winning others over with virtue, and they believe in learning from one's mistakes. Of course, sneak attacks are the best.
Sure enough, after a while, the veteran Martin lured these young "naughty kids" over.
I saw the young master walking in front, looking very heroic and proud, with his head held high and his chest puffed out, looking very impressive.
There were two knights who had entered the rank and followed him on the left and right. They looked around from time to time to observe the situation. One head behind him, there were three younger brothers who looked like playboys.
The eldest son and his three younger brothers were joking with each other, laughing and talking happily, and seemed quite relaxed. It didn't feel like hunting, but more like a picnic.
The group of people didn't realize until the end that they had actually entered Sauron's encirclement and became lambs to be slaughtered, oh no, "naughty children" to be beaten.
[I hate naughty kids the most, and the author is no exception. Naughty kids should be beaten and taught a lesson so that they can have a good childhood memory.]
