Mount and Blade: Summon five outlaws at the start

Outside the city, the atmosphere in the military camp was heavy. In the tent, the candlelight flickered, illuminating the figures of the people.

"Conrad, why do you want to withdraw? Are you afraid? Leave those soldiers to me, I will definitely break through the enemy's defense line and kill into the manor!!!" Hagen's face was full of anger, his eyes were wide open, staring at Conrad in front of him, and questioned loudly.

Facing Hagen's angry eyes burning like flames, Conrad's face was as heavy as water, without any fluctuations on his face.

He just looked at Hagen quietly and said slowly: "We have launched two attacks, but both ended in failure. How can you ensure that this third time will be successful?"

"Humph! If it weren't for the sudden collapse and escape of those damned untouchables, disrupting our position, this manor would have been in our pocket long ago!" Knight Hagen snorted heavily, clenched his fists, and his joints turned slightly white due to excessive force.

Then, he took a deep breath, calmed his excitement, and continued: "As long as you give me the command of those soldiers I brought from Kanerba Castle, I can definitely lead them to take down the manor in one go."

However, when he heard this, Conrad, who was originally in a stable mood, suddenly became furious. He stood up suddenly and slapped the table in front of him with his right hand, making a loud "bang".

"Hagen! You shot and killed 40 of the 80 brave and fearless soldiers in the town at will. Now nearly half of them have been lost. You still have the face to ask me for their command?!!" Conrad's eyes widened, veins on his forehead bulged, and his roar was deafening.

"You know, the old marquis worked hard and spent countless efforts and resources to finally train 200 elite soldiers. But now..." At this point, Conrad was so angry that he trembled all over and could hardly speak a complete sentence.

"After training them for so long, they can't even handle a bunch of criminals. There's no point in keeping them." Knight Hagen argued in the face of Conrad's fury.

"Then why are you asking me for their command now? Didn't you always think they were a bunch of trash?" Conrad stared at Hagen with his eyes wide open, his voice as cold as if it came from the Netherworld, making people shudder.

At this time, in addition to the two people who were arguing, there were three other knights in the tent.

They watched the fierce dispute in front of them silently, exchanged glances, and then sat quietly in the same place, with no expression on their faces, as if all this had nothing to do with them.

Just when the atmosphere was deadlocked, Knight Hagen seemed to realize that he was at a loss for words, and his originally loud voice suddenly became much lower:

"Conrad, although they are indeed trash, there are differences between 'trash' and 'trash'... As long as those soldiers can be handed over to me for command, I will definitely be able to successfully conquer this manor..."

Perhaps because of his lack of confidence, Knight Hagen's words were obviously not as confident as at the beginning.

However, Conrad obviously did not buy his words, and snorted coldly and said: "Hmph, don't rush to brag, but think about how to explain this to Lord Vito! A messenger has just sent a message that Lord Vito will arrive here today."

After saying this, Conrad turned around without hesitation and left the tent without looking back, as if the terrified Knight Hagen behind him did not exist at all.

Only the other three knights in the tent were left standing there, looking at each other, not knowing what to do for a moment.

However, after a short silence, the three knights seemed to finally come to their senses, began to exchange glances with each other, and whispered to each other.

After some thought, they finally decided to stand up and closely follow the pace of Conrad who had already gone far away.

Because compared to Hagen, the honorary knight who might be severely reprimanded by Lord Vito at this moment, Conrad is obviously more important to them and more in line with their own interests.

After all, when Vito Damon almost didn't care about the affairs of the territory, Conrad actually controlled all the big and small matters in the entire territory.

And their colleague Knight Barnett suddenly disappeared strangely. Although the fiefdom of Lesse Village under his jurisdiction had been destroyed, no one could say whether it would be rebuilt one day.

If that day really came, judging from the current situation, as long as they followed Conrad closely and maintained a good relationship with him, then the three of them would most likely be able to transform themselves from ordinary knights to real knights with real power, with their owntheir own territory and loyal subjects.

In this way, they can not only obtain a higher status and more wealth, but also realize the glory and dream they have longed for.

Thinking of this, the three knights quickened their pace and chased in the direction where Conrad left.

"Humph, Conrad..." Looking at the backs of the three knights chasing Conrad, Knight Hagen gritted his teeth, with deep hatred in his eyes.

"Lord Hagen..."

At this time, a knight attendant came in and whispered: "Lord Vito has arrived."

Hearing this news, Hagen's heart trembled violently, and a feeling of astonishment instantly surged in his heart.

He widened his eyes, and he could not imagine that Vito Damon would come to the camp so quickly.

Before Hagen had time to think about how to deal with it, he saw a young man in a chain mail shirt strode in.

And behind him, it was Conrad who had just left not long ago and the other three knights.

"Hagen!"

As soon as the young man stepped into the tent, he raised the whip in his hand in anger, and with a sharp sound of wind, he mercilessly whipped Hagen's chest.

Fortunately, due to the blocking of the armor on his body, this blow did not cause Hagen too much substantial pain.

However, Hagen was able to become a guard knight, so he was naturally not a fool. He knew that if he acted as if nothing had happened at this time, his feudal lord would probably become more angry.

So he hurriedly pretended to be in great pain, pretending to retreat backwards repeatedly, while baring his teeth, and his face showed an unconcealable pain.

After seeing the embarrassed appearance of Knight Hagen at this moment, Conrad and the other four standing behind the young man subconsciously curled their lips.
