At this time, when the situation was officially undercurrent, the lords of various regions had been tempted to move because of the emperor's coma, and Earl Zhebo in the north dared to rebel directly.

In order to ensure sufficient deterrence capabilities, the royal family did not even dare to send troops to protect the northern border, which has a huge steel production. This shows how the situation has become tense.

And now the emperor has died straight away. The crown prince is not yet an adult, can he suppress the lords everywhere even if he succeeds?

Indeed, many lords have come to the capital to participate in the funeral of the emperor, but this illness is not a reason to relax his vigilance. On the contrary, Rainer feels that this is an unprecedented crisis.

Maybe when a large-scale rebellion will erupt, the royal family will absolutely not be able to eliminate all rebellious parties.

The inability to eliminate these people in the first time means that there will be more lords who are watching that the royal family is not terrible, and continue to raise the banner of rebellion.

At that time, the lords everywhere rebelled, and at that time they were not thinking about restoring the situation before the Merland family unified the empire, but thinking about how to eliminate the royal family that had conquered their own family.

Thinking about this, Rainer couldn't help but sink in, feeling a little hopeless.

"Come on, I am afraid of those lords when I have the strength? Just develop it!" Rainer felt disdain for his cowardice in his heart, and quickly cheered himself up.

Reiner keenly felt that this time Earl Weasley’s counter-insurgency would play a very important role. If the counter-insurgency is very thorough and the rebels can be eliminated easily, then the situation of the heroes will at least be postponed. One or two months.

But once it fails, it will be a catastrophe...

The war against the rebellion is about to begin.

Earl Weasley has led an army to appear on a plain backed by the forest.

And to be on the safe side, Earl Wesley also ordered the army to lean back against the forest, so that the enemy cavalry could not go around, and could only attack his frontal army.

He is very confident of the royal heavy cavalry and knights, not only is there more than the enemy, but the combat effectiveness is estimated to be much stronger.

He felt that the infantry under his command could block the enemy's few knights from the front as long as they set up their formation.

Behind is the forest, they can only attack directly after they can't go around.

Your own knight can take advantage of this time to attack the enemy's flank or rear, and victory is at your fingertips.

It has to be said that Earl Weasley is quite qualified as a general who has fought in the North and South for many years.

The soldiers stood in battle and kept their formation, holding spears and swords, waiting for the enemy to arrive.

More than an hour passed, Earl Weasley took off his helmet, his face was already full of sweat, Fort Creek was located in the south of the empire, and the weather in August was the hottest time of the year.

The sun hung high in the sky and gave out a venomous sunlight. The soldiers themselves were wearing heavy armor or leather armor lining, plus chain armor and heraldic robes outside, and they were almost out of breath. Up.

Count Weasley squinted his eyes and looked at the sky, and jumped off his horse to face the adjutant next to him: "Let the soldiers rest for a while! God **** Sir Frank, he's too unpunctual!"

After receiving the order, the soldiers sat on the ground to reduce their physical exertion, lifted the armor and fanned the clothes, or poured a water bottle into it.

After more than an hour passed, a banner with a blue Mochizuki flower finally appeared on the horizon of this plain.

"The whole army is on alert!" Upon seeing this, Earl Weasley put on his helmet immediately, and then quickly turned on his horse with the help of the rebels and gave the order.

"Dududu!"

A sharp bronze horn sounded, and officers at all levels also shouted loudly.

It is indeed an elite army of the royal family. In just two minutes, the entire team finished their rest and reorganization. They have arranged their armors, held their weapons tightly in their hands, and stood shoulder-to-shoulder back to back.

Twenty minutes later, the army under the banner of Mochizuki with a blue background appeared in front of the entire counter-insurgency army.

Count Weasley looked up and found that the entire army was about two thousand men, but the formation looked messed up.

At the forefront is a group of soldiers wearing ordinary linen clothes. They are probably only serf sign soldiers, and the weapons in their hands are mostly wooden farm tools.

The troops at the back are temporarily unclear, but they should be stronger than the serf signs at the front.

"Humph..." Earl Weasley's helmet made a mocking sneer. In addition to the quantity, the equipment and training are far inferior to his own. Such an opponent...hehe...

Count Weasley completely ignored the defeat more than half a month ago, and he planned to be ashamed this time.

"Prepare the archer!"

Count Weasley turned his head and said: "Rebard, take our infantry to the left flank and prepare to encircle the enemy, Sir Calaf, you take the knights and heavy cavalry to the right flank to deter the enemy, and at the same time prepare Follow my wrong order and start the charge!"

Orders were issued one after another, and Sir Rebard led nearly three hundred regular troops under the command of Earl Weasley to the left flank to prepare to stand by.

Count Weasley looked at the enemy army slowly approaching in front of him vigorously, with a vigorous smile on his mouth, he could not find the reason for his failure.

Although the defeat half a month ago made the armour of our own army not uniform, it was still luxurious compared to the enemy's.

The blue-bottomed Mochizuki banner stopped about 800 meters away from the counter-insurgency, but it seemed that the two sides did not have the old traditional plan of pre-array negotiations, and the world of Sir Frantet began to line up.

Just like the arrangement of the battle-tested Earl Wesley, he placed the cavalry on the left flank, just to oppose the cavalry of the rebels.

On the right wing, the serf signs were separated and prepared to deal with the nearly 300 soldiers led by Sir Rebard~lightnovelpub.net~Earl Weasley did not plan to rush to fight the enemy immediately, the enemy marched more than 20 Kilometer is still experiencing the sun's exposure, and his physical strength will inevitably be unbearable first, not to mention that Earl Weasley has the superior strength, and he is now confident.

Moreover, he didn't want to give up the advantage of relying on the forest, he needed a certain amount of caution in combat.

On the other side of the battlefield, Sir Frank found through the peephole that the enemy was not moving, and had to order the army to move forward slowly.

This time he led 2,100 soldiers, of which 900 were in the regular army, 400 were directly under the count, and the army of the vassals added up to 500, and the remaining 1,200 were mobilized. Serf signs of soldiers.

Although they are wealthy, not all of this money is spent on conscripting the army. After all, they are just a group of seemingly wealthy poor people living on trade roads.

The steel needed for armor cannot be bought or bought. The territory is not large enough in population. Many people follow the caravan or become handicraftsmen. The base of troops is gradually shrinking. Therefore, although they are wealthy, their military strength is not strong.
