I'm not a lord

Chapter 111 Kill
Little Thorward lowered his hood, wearing light leather armor, and climbed up the watchtower as nimbly as a monkey.

He was ordered to lead scouts to attack the watchtower, and his original plan was to use longbows to eliminate the guards.

When we arrived at the designated shooting location, we found that there was no one on the watchtower, only a crackling brazier.

After some reconnaissance, they discovered that all the guards were huddled in the watchtower and asleep.

Xiao Suo immediately changed his strategy and chose to occupy the watchtower by sneaking in and assassinating.

Over the past two months, in addition to practicing archery, his squadron of barbarians had to practice reconnaissance and assassination techniques with Xuego.

The training time is indeed not long, but the results are very gratifying.

These young men from the wild have been hunting in the forest since they were young. They are born with the ability to hold their breath and hide. Most of them have long limbs and flexible hands and feet.

Xiao Suodai's team of ten was the best among them. They only carried a dagger and lurked quietly near the watchtowers, and launched attacks on four watchtowers at the same time.

Just as little Thorward's toes touched the ground, the sentry tower guard Oliver suddenly opened his eyes.

This is an instinctive reaction developed from long-term martial arts training.

But just as he realized something was wrong, a flash of silver light flashed past his eyes at high speed, and he immediately fell into eternal darkness.

Warnings that have not yet been uttered, beautiful fantasies in dreams, infinite longing for the future... everything is annihilated in the scarlet curtain gushing from the carotid artery.

Little Thorward wiped the remaining blood from the dagger with his elbow, and looked at the young guard lying in a pool of blood.

He immediately noticed the chain mail under the guard's robe and the long sword at his waist, and subconsciously bent down to take these two valuable trophies.

But as soon as his fingertips touched the cold buckles of the mail, he forced himself to withdraw his hand.

According to military rules, anyone who dares to secretly harvest spoils during battle will be sentenced to three weeks of solitary confinement at the lightest.

All spoils will be collected after the war and rewards will be distributed according to the level of military merit.

Little Thorward always followed Lynn's lead and knew that military regulations were strict, so he certainly didn't dare to break the law.

He looked back and saw that the other three watchtowers had also been captured. The three scouts gave him a thumbs-up, indicating that everything was going well.

Xiao Suo stuck his head out and made the same gesture to the scout waiting at the foot of the watchtower. The scout immediately turned around and ran into the forest.

Not long after, the third brother received the news.

"Army attack!"

He immediately issued an order, and all the soldiers were divided into two teams according to the pre-war plan. Led by the third and fourth brothers, they rushed to the village in the north of Qiantan Territory as quickly as possible, while the servants who escorted the supplies remained on standby.

After leaving the forest, the road splits into two branches, east and west. There are two villages in each direction, and each village is guarded by a feudal knight.

Based on the available troops and the distribution of villages, the third brother decided to split his troops into two groups and simultaneously raid the two nearest villages.

There was no cry of charge, nor any loud trumpet call.

More than a hundred soldiers, led by the third brother, marched silently along the flat field road and launched a swift attack on the sleeping village.

Little Soward was still at the front. Today was his first time killing someone.

But he found that killing people didn't seem to be a big deal, not much different from killing a deer.

The faint smell of blood on his face further aroused the wildness hidden in his heart.

kill!

He rushed into the village on foot with his scouts and immediately saw the towering wooden fence of the knight's manor.

In a feudal domain, the lord's residence was always located at the highest point. Little Suo swiftly crossed the muddy village road and, just as he reached the wooden fence, the sound of dogs barking could be heard continuously from within the manor.

"Wow wow wow!"

The shrill barking of dogs exploded in the silent night, instantly waking up the entire manor.

Little Thorward did not hesitate. He used his hands and feet to quickly climb over the wall with the scouts and headed straight for the wooden gate on the south side of the manor.

The two guards rubbed their sleepy eyes and were about to pick up the spears beside them.

When they saw the scouts from the wilderness who had descended from the sky like divine soldiers, they immediately panicked.

"You are"

Before he could finish his words, several daggers accurately pierced their throats and heads.

Then Xiao Suo and several scouts worked together to pull out the bolt of the wooden door, and the door, which was more than three meters high, quickly opened.

Candlelight was lit in the main house on the north side of the manor, and the sound of the male owner shouting and the shaking of chain mail could be heard from inside the house.

Xiao Suo was not in a hurry to attack the main house. He was only wearing leather armor, and it would be too disadvantageous for him to fight against a real mail knight. As long as he could defend the gate, he would have completed his mission successfully.

At the same time, the third brother, who rushed into the village on horseback, saw the open wooden gate of the manor. He held his lance in his hand, and with two plate-armored knights, he clamped his horse's belly and sprinted towards the gate at the fastest speed.

The accompaniment of dog barking and horse hooves even awakened the serfs who had been sleeping like dead pigs after a day of corvee labor.

Serfs kept poking their heads out of their houses, trying to figure out what was going on.

In the bright moonlight, they just saw an army of a hundred men marching in neat steps into the village.

Where did this army come from?
Confusion was written all over the faces of the serfs.

Seeing this, the squad leaders immediately shouted: "In the name of Miss Yagena, kill the traitors! Stay at home and anyone who goes out will die!"

Miss Yagena?
The serfs all knew this name and soon realized that this was a matter between the masters and had nothing to do with them, the low-level serfs.

They quickly closed the doors and windows, huddled in a corner, and found a handy thing, fearing that the soldiers would rush in and rob them.

Those village heads who had just picked up their weapons and were ready to go out to fight also stopped fighting and stayed indoors. They were not fools and there was no need for them to get involved in the infighting among the top leaders of the territory.

And judging from the posture of this army, it is most likely that they are elite troops that Miss Yagena found from outside. If they rush forward rashly, it will be like an egg hitting a stone, and they will break at the first touch.

The army's slogan was naturally designed by Lynn.

The name of Yagna should be used in vain, as it can be used to appease the village.

What Lin En wanted was a shallow territory with a complete population. The death of a serf would be a loss.

Inside the manor, Henrik hurriedly put on his mail armor with the help of his wife. He held a long sword in his hand and just as he pushed open the door, he heard slogans outside.

Well, this bitch Yagena is really hooking up with the second son of the earl in the north?
Judging from the situation, did the Earl's second son bring all the knights here?
Wait, since the enemy came from White Bear Territory, why didn’t the watchtower respond?

Why is the door of the manor open?
What a bunch of rubbish!
Henryk's combat experience told him that his best option right now was to ride out of the village and go to the castle as soon as possible to meet the Regent Flora.

Now the enemy has taken advantage of the night to invade the territory. He needs to rely on the castle to gather troops and then find a way to repel the enemy.

But it’s too late.

More than a hundred soldiers were rapidly surrounding the manor, and the third brother had already rushed in through the gate with the cavalry.

The lance reflected the cold moonlight, pointing directly at Henryk who was galloping towards the stable!
