Goblin Attack
1220 Words
Leisurely days always pass quickly, especially for the servants inside the Eagle Castle.
The assassination a month ago had vanished from their memories, and the explanation given by the butler Jace was very reasonable, the assassin had been solved by Lord Kane, and the crisis had been resolved as early as the night of the day.
Although they were amazed by the frequent drills of the soldiers on the training ground, they didn't care about it, they just thought that Lord Kane had some new arrangement.
At noon that day, the gentle sunlight shone on the whole land, making people want to take a comfortable nap.
A bloodied figure galloped towards the castle on a fast horse.
Soon, he was stopped by the guards guarding the city.
"Stop, please identify yourself."
The cavalryman, who still had arrows stuck in his body, pulled up the reins and stopped at the gate of the city.
"Cavalry, Amer, I have an urgent matter to report to Lord Kane."
Seeing that the other party was indeed in a hurry to report to the baron, the guards let him pass after confirming his identity.
Along the way, under the watchful eyes of many servants, the cavalry finally met Kane.
He saluted with difficulty and reported to Kane, "Lord Kane, our cavalry patrol has been attacked by goblins around the village of McCoe.
Kane asked, confused, "Goblins?" Tell me what's going on. Immediately, he noticed the arrows on the cavalryman's body, and hurriedly ordered the butler beside him, "Guise, go and call Lim over."
Camen's Lim is the only physician in the territory, and it can also be said that the baron's personal physician, although the medical skills are not very good, but the situation is urgent, and he can only be a dead horse doctor.
Soon, Lim and his assistants arrived with a large bag of medical supplies, while Cavalry Aimer sat in a shady corner with Kane's support.
Despite the severity of his injuries, Aymel continued: "My lord, at noon today, our cavalry was patrolling the outskirts of Mykoh Village, when suddenly, a group of goblins rushed out of the surrounding forest and collided with our cavalry.
"Not only are they higher in number than us, but the goblins led by them are also transcendental, our team is defeated, and the captain sent me out to report the situation, but I am afraid that now the team has ......"
Hearing what happened to the team, Kane sighed deeply: "Alas...... Emer, do you see the weapons used by the other party's transcendents?
"Yes, my lord, it's a mace."
Kane nodded: "Very good, the situation is already clear, you take good care of your injuries and strive for an early recovery."
"Yes, Lord Kane."
After comforting the cavalry, Kane turned to the physician Lim and ordered, "Heal his wounds, and it is better not to leave a dark illness behind."
Limu,
who had to take on this difficult task, swallowed a mouthful of water, the situation of the cavalry, he had probably seen it, and there were injuries all over his body, among which the shoulder was hit by an arrow was the most serious.
If he doesn't deal with it quickly, he will be infected with tetanus, and no one will be able to cure him.
"Yes, my lord, I will do my best to save it." After answering Kane, Limu hurriedly took the assistant beside him and transferred the other party to the room for assistance.
The sudden situation gave Kane a headache, the previous matter of Fort Brunei had not been resolved, and a group of goblins came outside this territory, and more importantly, he had lost a cavalry patrol.
You know, it's not easy to raise a cavalryman, and the cost of horses and armor alone can be expensive, not to mention the time consumed.
Counting the losses in his mind, Kane went to the study, and first instructed the butler Keith to inform Catherine and Marcus to come to the study.
Then, he thought about the situation outside the territory.
The Rigit Territory, which is the full name of Kane's territory, includes a castle and village underneath.
According to Kane's impression, there should be no orcs around the Rigis Territory, and even the supernatural beasts are only a few scattered.
Now the sudden appearance of a goblin tribe with transcendent beings is really wondering, could it be that they have escaped from the orc empire in the south?
"Knock knock."
A knock on the outer door interrupted Kane's thoughts, and it seemed that Marcus and Catherine had arrived.
At Kane's signal, the two pushed the door in, first saluted, and then looked at Kane.
On the way here, the two heard about this incident somewhat.
"A cavalry just came to report that a group of goblins came out of the territory."
Catherine, who was more excited on the side, asked, "My lord, I heard that there are transcendent beings among them?"
Kane nodded: "It seems that you also know, yes, their leader is a transcendent, the current rank is not clear, but it should not exceed the first order of high rank." The
experienced Marcus advised, "My lord, this matter cannot be delayed, the other side may go to plunder the village of Maiko at any time, we need to act quickly."
"Well, that's what I thought too." With that, Kane opened the map on his desktop.
He raised his hand in the direction of the deep forest to the south, "According to Cavalry Emmel, the goblins collided with the cavalry here.
Marcus looked at the terrain and said with a little headache: "My lord, the forest here is very dense, I'm afraid it is not suitable for immediate combat, we need to walk into the forest."
"That's all there is to it." Kane had no other way to do it.
Kane turned to Catherine and commanded, "Bring all the scouts in the territory, we need to find out the number and location of the other party."
"Yes, sir."
Seeing that the plan was discussed, Kane got up: "Without further ado, let's act, gather outside Eagle Castle."
"Yes, Lord Kane."
The two of them, who received the order, hurried out of the study and went to gather the soldiers.
Kane also rushed to the lord's bedroom and put on his armor.
All of a sudden, the territory was full of turmoil, and the soldiers, summoned by Catherine, hurried to the meeting place, and columns of horsemen rode through the fort on fast horses, while the servants of the castle looked out of the city with worry, hoping that the operation would go smoothly.
Soon, Kane arrived outside the city on a white horse, dressed in well-polished armor and wielding a family heirloom sword.
At this moment, the soldiers and cavalry in the territory had gathered, and Marcus and Catherine walked out of it and came to Kane's side.
"Lord Kane, all 24 members of the cavalry have arrived."
"Lord Kane, 42 armed infantry and 3 scouts have arrived."
Except for the six cavalry patrols that had been killed and wounded and the guards in the castle, all the troops led by the Rigit were gathered here.
Kane nodded, then shouted, "Go, fight the goblins and avenge the dead brothers!" "Yes!!
