Chapter 62: The Earl’sSummoning Order!
’s Summoning Order!
"My Lord, there is a knight outside who said that he was sent by the Earl to see you."
Early in the morning two weeks later, Alan had just woken up when Butler Edward appeared in front of him.
"Lord Earl?"
Alan was stunned for a moment before he understood.
Recently, his sea cavalry roamed the sea, looking for some pirates to practice with.
Every once in a while, they would run into troops from the Blue Moon Principality.
But recently, the Blue Moon Principality had become more and more presumptuous. It was no longer pretending to be a pirate to attack the Lane Principality. Instead, it was blatantly attacking.
At this moment, the relationship between the Lane Principality and the Blue Moon Principality had become more and more tense, and the smell of gunpowder had become more and more intense.
The war was about to break out very soon.
The Earl must have summoned him because of the war.
Alan showed a slight smile. "It's finally here."
He immediately summoned the knight.
This knight was wearing a set of knight armor. His tall and sturdy body made him look extremely difficult to mess with.
After entering the castle, he bowed slightly to Alan and took out a golden Thorn Flower badge from his pocket.
"The Earl has an order, Lord Alan. Please bring your soldiers to the Thorn Flower City immediately!"
The knight said solemnly and handed the Thorn Flower badge to Alan.
Alan also took the badge seriously. A trace of anticipation appeared on his face.
"It's finally here."
Alan held the badge in his hand, which was the Earl's token and a signal.
Only this token could mobilize the warriors of all the nobles in the entire Thorn Flower Territory.
It was also a signal that war was about to start.
"Yes, My Lord, the war is about to begin, and charging on the battlefield is a knight's honor."
The knight also smiled.
"I'll immediately gather my men. Are you going to wait for me, or are you going to leave first?"
Alan asked.
"I can't stay long. Lord Earl is still waiting for me to report back!"
The knight shook his head. After he finished speaking, he immediately left and returned to Thorn Flower Territory.
"My Lord, is a war about to break out?"
Edward was a little surprised because he didn't feel that a war was to break out very soon.
During this period of time, he had been living happily and comfortably in Rose Town.
"Yes, Grandpa Edward, I am about to leave with my soldiers. Of course, I will not take all of them away."
Alan responded softly. He was going to take away the wolf cavalry and eight hundred cavalrymen this time. As for the sea cavalry, he would not mobilize them for the time being. Of course, this did not mean that he was not going to use them.
After all, he had spent a lot of effort training the sea cavalry. It was not for them to enjoy, but for them to fight on the battlefield for him.
It was just that he did not want to expose the existence of sea cavalry in advance.
Alan was almost certain that this war would start at sea.
He had already started to prepare for the battle. It was impossible for the Blue Moon Principality to be unprepared. It could even be said that the other side was definitely more prepared than the Lane Principality.
That was why Alan was almost certain that the war would break out on the sea and, as a country on the mainland, Alan was not very optimistic about the combat effectiveness of the warriors of the Lane Principality on the sea.
At this time, the role of the sea cavalry was too great. They could completely control the situation on the battlefield.
Moreover, the sea cavalry was so fast at sea that they could catch the other side off guard and the method to summon the sea cavalrymen was very simple. He just needed to call the sea lion beasts in his heart.
As for the other two hundred warriors, Alan was going to let them stay in Rose Town. After all, this was his base camp, and it was difficult for him to rest assured if he did not leave some strength behind.
After Alan thought about it, he immediately ordered his servant to ask Marco to gather all the warriors in his territory and wait for his arrival.
After that, Alan asked the servants to help him put on his knight armor.
Due to the Earl's summoning order, all the nobles under his command had to respond to the Earl with their men and knights.
Soon, the servants put on the knight armor on Alan.
With the knight sword at his waist, Alan slowly left the castle and arrived at the warrior training grounds under the gaze of Edward, his servants, and the eight spirits of nature.
At this moment, eleven hundred people, including Marco, were waiting for Alan's arrival on the training grounds with serious faces while wearing battle armor and holding weapons.
Soon, Alan slowly appeared in front of everyone on his Silver Moon Wolf. Alan had spent the extra money to buy this wolf, mainly because it looked handsome and it was a magical creature, so it could help him on the battlefield.
The sun was shining, and the moment that handsome boy in knight armor appeared in their eyes, everyone was willing to fight for him.
The soldiers stared at Alan, knowing that he was slowly approaching them.
Alan didn't waste any time. He raised the Thorn Flower badge with his right hand and spoke with a serious expression: "My warriors! The horn of war has sounded! The Earl is calling us, and glory is waiting for us!"
"Are all of you willing to fight for me?"
Alan raised his arms.
Everyone immediately shouted, "I am willing to charge for my Lord and die in battle!"
