Chapter 10 10. Knight's Dream
The next morning, I encountered a small Druchi schooner. When I saw the Winter, I immediately avoided it without any intention of communicating. Maybe I was afraid of being cheated.
On the afternoon of the third day, I encountered another Druchi schooner. I also saw the Winter and turned around and ran away.
At this time, Darkus realized that his Druchi three-masted plundering ship was indeed a bit of a supermodel. This kind of ship was used to match the Black Ark, just like the large cruiser in the aircraft carrier battle group. .
On the fourth day, we took advantage of the darkness to bypass the city of Leonis and surrounding islands, and headed towards the northern city of Sorel, preparing to find a place to land.
More than twenty Bretonnian cavalry stopped and raised their hooves to the turf. The evening sun filtered through the woods, casting dappled light on their armor.
On the mountains to the north they could smell the sea and hear the distant waves. The mounted squires were returning from the hills. Their steps and demeanor suggested they had found what they were looking for.
The leading knight took off his helmet and shook his hair, revealing his young face. When he turned to look at his flag officer, a proud smile appeared on his face. He smiled proudly and said: "It looks like we have found our prey, huh? My dear Bassetine."
Bassetine lifted his mask, and he was also a young and handsome knight. He said in a low voice: "That may be the case, Joniva." But the expression on his face was equally triumphant. Because they all know that they are about to become heroes again.
Less than two hours north is the village of Avignon. Since the beginning of summer, it has been under attack. Of course, there were only a few hundred old farmers in the village, and there was nothing valuable to rob. But every knight's duty is to protect the weak, and the young chivalrous knight quickly jumped at the chance to prove his worth. Now it seems that Joniva and Bassetine, the best childhood friends, are about to become the saviors of Avignon.
The captain of the valet dismounted not far from them, trotted over, took off his helmet, knelt in front of the two noble knights, and reported to Joniva with joy.
"We found it, sir. It's a group of Druchi. There are about ten of them, walking, without mounts, wearing armor, and have a small camp."
Joniva asked: "Druchi? Are you sure?"
Attendant The captain replied: "Yes, my lord. I am sure it is Drucci, not a Norscan."
Joniva and Bassetine looked at each other, and then Joniva said to the attendant: "Well, well done, Very well, ready to fight."
Joniva drew out his sword and said: "Are you ready to fight, my friend?" After saying that, he clamped his mount on his legs and started jogging.
Bassetine said wisely: "Let's not be impulsive. Think about it, our number is more than three times theirs, and they are all cavalry. We will directly overwhelm them! Of course, if we can capture these Druchi alive, If we do, we can get a lot of reward, and His Excellency Duke Herpans will also be very grateful to us."
Joniva understood Bassetine's hint, laughed and said: "Hahaha! Bassetine, You undoubtedly have the mind of a lord, no wonder I am responsible for commanding you."
Bassetine showed a bright smile and said: "Leave it alone!" Then he turned to the mounted attendants and said to them: "Attendants, let's go and grab some now. Druchi pirates. They will regret setting foot on the land of Lyonesse!"
The sound of horse hooves thundered, and the Bretonnian cavalry moved forward bravely.
The reconnaissance of the mounted squire was accurate, and as the sun set over the bay, the two brothers Darkus and Takaia, with a band of Black Ark pirates, set up camp and made a fire to cook. A large black and purple tent stood behind them, the flag on the top of the tent swayed in the wind, and a small boat ran aground on the beach.
Darkus was picking wild fruits, and the uneasy feeling came back in his heart. He frowned and asked, "Have we released the people on guard?"
Franais put down the wild fruits in his hand and said, "Sir, , arranged to go out two hours ago."
Darkus cursed and said: "Damn, that's weird."
Bassetine looked at Druch in the distance and said: "They actually connected the bow and the long handle. There are no weapons, and I have already seen the goddess of the lake smiling at me."
Joniva smiled at his flag officer and said: "The noble ladies will definitely like our stories and can't wait to fight with us."
Basel Sting shivered and said: "My dear friend, ladies can fight better than any warrior I have ever encountered in battle!"
The two laughed loudly, and with Bassetine's order, the attendants all The sound galloped over the hills and rushed towards Darkus and the others.
Seeing the Bretonnian cavalry rushing in the distance, the two brothers Darkus and Takaia jumped up from their chairs.
The Black Ark pirates dropped what they were doing, drew their weapons, and lined up around Darkus.
Franais said hurriedly: "Sir, you go first! We will try our best to stop them!"
Renne also said quickly: "Yes, sir, you go first, we buy time for you!"
Darkus He laughed angrily and said, "Damn, what the hell is this? There's no reason for me to leave first!" Then he gritted his teeth and said, "Delay! Delay time! Put down your weapons! We surrender!"
Darkus walked out of the formation and faced Mercedes-Benz. The incoming cavalry raised the Bretonnian military salute, and the Black Ark pirates also lowered their weapons under the captain's order.
When the Bretonnian cavalry saw Druch raising his hands to surrender, they slowed down their horses. Joniva stopped gracefully in front of Darkus, pointing his lance at Darkus, with the tip of the spear a little further forward. His words almost touched his nose. Darkus didn't take a step back, he raised his hands and raised his head to look at Joniva.
Joniva retracted his lance and raised it to the sky, then took off his helmet with his left hand, raised his chin and said arrogantly to Darkus: "You are now the Baron of Valence, the savior of Cologne, A. Savior of Vignon, prisoner of Joniva de Valence. You will be judged for your crimes against this land, and before your trial I guarantee that you will not be mistreated."
Darkus looked Looking at the chivalrous knight in front of him, he thought: "What a stinker, my head is full of knightly dreams." Then he smiled politely and said elegantly in Bretonnian: "Dear Lord Baron, please forgive us. . They are fully aware of their crimes, and so am I. I am a descendant of the Thousand Bites family of Kalonde Kal, and my name is Bardek Blackblade. I dedicate my sword to you. We are willing to submit to your authority, There will be no more disputes today. Tomorrow we will face the trial calmly." As he spoke, he skillfully took off the noble curved sword from his waist and raised the sheathed noble curved sword towards Joniva with both hands.
Bretonnian and Imperial have the same differences as High German and Low German, except for some grammatical differences in some words.
