Below the castle, there are more than two thousand regular troops camping. For an ordinary earl, two thousand people are almost impossible to do unless he mobilizes serfs to join the army.

Even if the point of Earl Cholar is close to the north, the earl with a relatively large territory can only mobilize the regular army in the early 2000s, and the other earls have about 1,000 people.

In the north, the two thousand regular troops were only the forces mobilized by Rainer's vassals, and Rainer's own army was still training in the barracks outside the city.

The strength he showed is already worthy of the envy and awe of Earl Cholar.

Listening to Count Jolar's admiration, Rainer reluctantly smiled. If they really wanted to fight the enemy on the front line, these soldiers really didn't know how many left.

"Well, now that you have started to prepare, then I will go back and assemble the army and prepare to go south with you!" said Earl Jolar, who stayed here for so long to set off with Rainer.

Rainer nodded in agreement, and that day Count Jolar left Micalon City on horseback and walked towards his territory via Twarinburg.

Now Rainer only missed the vassals on the grassland because of the distance, Samuzha, Tirihan, and two other vassals.

Five days later, in July of the 25th year of the empire, shortly after the spring ploughing in the north was over, the vassals on the grassland brought their cavalry to the outside of Mekalong City.

Although this group of people was entrusted by Rainer, there is no way, the grasslands with poor resources and lack of technology still make them impoverished.

The herdsmen and prairie cavalry gathered by them are no different from the beginning. The only armor is several layers of sheepskin on their bodies.

Fortunately, during this period of time, Lenner slaughtered cattle and sheep and obtained a lot of cowhide. Lenner ordered the cobblers to tann it into leather armor.

Although Reiner wants to give his soldiers a layer of leather armor to increase protection, but the weight of a leather armor reaches nearly ten kilograms, he does not want to put a greater burden on the soldiers, just pursue Defensive power and losing flexibility is not what he wants.

It is enough to have a layer of armed clothing inside, anyway, if necessary, the soldiers will buy it for themselves.

But even so, Rainer had only four hundred sets of leather armor in stock, and the arrival of Qingqi on the prairie was more than 1,300 people, so Rainer could only be evenly distributed to the four vassals on the prairie.

In fact, this was only for Rainer to show his justice. Although they were all prairie cavalry, the cavalry of the vassals who had been entrusted by Rainer himself was slightly stronger, and it would be more effective if given to them.

But after all, Samuzha had more than six hundred cavalry in his hands.

"My vassals!" Rainer raised his glass and got up from his chair.

After all the vassals arrived, Reiner held a brief banquet in the main fort hall of Mikalon City.

Although it will not last long, the dishes are still rich, and the gradual development of commerce in the north makes the food available to choose more and more colorful.

In addition to these vassals, Rainer also canonized many members of the Merland family with sufficient force as knights after unifying the entire Northern Territory and granted them the beneficiaries, which made Rainer's force even stronger.

At the same time, the relatives linked by the blood of the Morand family reached a balance with the vassals who had been transferred from the royal family to Rainer.

In addition, in the last war against the steppes, Rainer also canonized two knights as barons. Blood relatives of the Moreland family.

Anyway, a territory as large as the Northern Territory can hardly be developed within the selected time. It's better to entrust it out to increase the strength of your direct lineage.

Seeing Leiner toasting, the vassals also stood up from their chairs, raising their glasses and waiting for Leiner to continue speaking.

"I have already told you about the war ahead in the letter. It is very unfavorable. As a member of the Merland family, I must fight for the family. I ask you all for this battle!"

Rainer drank all the wine in one glass, and the vassals also claimed to be true.

When the drink was over, Lena's eyes swept over the extremely vassal again, and he said casually while sitting in the mood: "At the same time, I hope my vassals can remember the easy, don’t leave the position I arranged for you casually, if If you fight effectively, I will reward you enough!"

Those lords who had fled on the grassland battlefield blushed as they nodded like pecking rice.

A banquet went very harmoniously. After the banquet was over, Rainer came to Mrs. Moreland's room.

Mrs. Morland heard the door opening and walked out of the prayer room.

At this moment, her eyes were slightly red, and she seemed to have already cried.

Rainer stepped forward and said, "Mother, don't worry, I will return triumphantly. There is nothing in this world that can threaten me!"

Mrs. Moreland almost fell tears after hearing Lenner's words. There is no one who is undefeated in this world. He knew that Lenner took a very big risk every time he went out to fight.

If it weren't for the domain, the family and the family, he didn't need to fight like this.

Thinking of this, she felt even more affectionate for her eldest son, who had been burdened a lot, and she just looked at Lena's face carefully.

The two were silent for a while, and Morandev said: "It doesn't matter if you lose the battle, you just need to save your own life. You must ensure your safety. The family members depend on you!"

Fiana suddenly hugged Lena's thigh: "Don't let my brother go..."

"Fyana, it's brother's responsibility..." Rainer patted Fyana's head, picked her up and handed her to Mrs. Moreland's side.

After a pause, he said: "Then, mother, I will lead my army out this afternoon... Count Jolar and the royal family are waiting for me!"

Mrs. Moreland covered her mouth and cried silently~lightnovelpub.net~ The frontline was completely overwhelmed, and more than 10,000 people filled it. The news of the death of a duke has spread throughout Mecalon, and even Spreading to other regions.

Under such circumstances, how could Mrs. Moreland believe what Rainer said?

But all this is the fate of the lord. The lord is a military nobleman. If he dares not go to the battlefield, he will even lose his rights. What's more, Rainer is here to help the entire Merland family.

Hearing a slight sob behind him, Rainer sighed softly, pushed the door open and walked out of the room, and then closed the door with minimal effort.

Afterwards, he returned to his room and touched the faces of the two little maids who had put on their clothes and made their complexions crimson, then carrying a package, wearing wartime tight-fitting armor, walked out of the room.

Afterwards, Sarang and another retinue walked in with a full-body armor and opened the door, and began to put on the armor for Lai'an.

After putting on the armor and moving for a few times, he left the main fort and went to the center of the city with the assembled army to join the vassals outside the city.
