Chapter 473. Serfs secretly prepared

Of course, it was impossible for the southern county leader to sit idly by and watch the troops of the northern county leader attack.

The previous prevarication and compromise were announced on the day of the fall of Masburg, and the importance of the Southern County Territory, especially those high-ranking nobles who represented the Southern County Territory.

Hitting the southern county leaders hard is equivalent to hitting them hard.

Just a few hundred years ago.

These high-ranking nobles have been tied to the Southern County Lord.

Even to a certain extent, the attack of the Silver Plate Kingdom was not the Lion Grand Duke who was responsible for resisting, but the resistance of these high-ranking nobles who had completely rooted their families in Nanjun and were unwilling to be uprooted in their own strength.

Now facing the aristocratic army of the Northern County Lord, the troops of the Southern County Commander have finally assembled.

The 20,000-strong army was neat and elite.

Led by 5000 knights.

It was supplemented by 15,000 knightly squires and corresponding horseback attendants.

All of them are cavalry units, which are extremely mobile, and this is also the most proud unit of the Lion Principality.

In the battle with the Yinpan Kingdom, it was these highly mobile cavalry units that cut off the infantry supply lines of the Yinpan Kingdom alive, interspersed with surprise attacks back and forth, and defeated the enemy army that had the numerical advantage and elite advantage.

In the plains, the cavalry is the king, and the infantry is just a target!

The Viscount of Nanjun Commander, who is the leader, is very confident.

But he was not arrogant.

That's the undertone.

The training from a high-ranking aristocratic family allowed him to occupy a very high strength in commanding troops.

He is over 35 years old, and now he has no pride of a young man, he just sees this battle as his gilded mission, if it is completed well, then he is the new viscount who has protected the safety of the southern county territory.

If you fight neatly and win beautifully, it is not impossible to become an earl by virtue of your military exploits.

And these are the unspoken rules of the aristocracy.

Prop him up to the top.

This battle is the best cornerstone for him to get to the top position.

Sometimes mutual compromise can make someone successful.

Thinking about the next, maybe there will be a marriage too, this young viscount of the high-ranking noble family of the Southern County Territory, the smile on the corner of his mouth has already curled, no matter which family he marries, he can go further.

Maybe after defeating the group of hillbillies in the North County Leader, he will still be able to take charge of that barren wilderness.

Although the land is barren.

But the salt mines from the Narun Desert are good things.

Even the high-ranking nobles from Nanjun are salivating.

The reason why there has been no attack is that he is worried about the surprise attack of the Silver Plate Kingdom, after all, the current Lion Principality is still facing this former old enemy, if he is not careful, it is estimated that the entire Principality will be swallowed up into the 3 new counties of the Silver Plate Kingdom, which is not what they want to see.

But now, the Northern Commanders actually took the initiative to attack, so they belonged to the defensive counterattack, and they could easily defeat the invading troops, and then counterattack into the Northern Commanders and the Narun Desert to get more profits!

They must get that salt mine!

…………

The plains of the Southern Commandery.

Countless farms are being evacuated, and many serfs and freedmen are fleeing the fighting.

But they didn't go far, this battle was doomed to victory, the aftermath of the Nanjun Commander still echoed in their hearts, and the most important thing was that the elite of the Lion Principality never disappointed.

Even if the group of nobles from the Northern County Territory attacked, they might just come to die!

Wasn't that the original Silver Plate Kingdom?

Right now.

There were also serfs on some farms.

It is a prisoner of war who was captured by the nobles of the southern county of the Lion Principality after the defeat of the Silver Plate Kingdom.

Instead of being exchanged, they became serfs who languished day and night on the farm, eating the best food, being treated as humanoid livestock, and eventually dying of exhaustion on the farm, and even their bodies were buried in the ground to fatten.

The vanquished have no human rights to speak of, let alone the vanquished of the aggressor.

So how the battle is going on has nothing to do with them.

It doesn't matter who has the advantage.

They were just serfs.

No one cared about them, and no one wanted to save them.

Perhaps the Silver Plate Kingdom is still waiting for the next attack, but when the time comes, whether they are still alive or not is another matter, especially those slave owners or farmers who have abused them, in order to kill people, will definitely be the first to hang these serfs.

And the Silver Plate Kingdom is also happy to see it, after all, some prisoners of war have become serfs, which is inevitably a little embarrassing.

It's just that there are voices in this group of serfs.

Those former commanders.

As long as it's not dead.

are all secretly connected, after all, farms are all interconnected.

Some serfs also became small leaders, and secretly arranged a few serfs who went out to work, and it was very easy to pass on news to each other, and soon, in less than half a month, all the serfs knew the news.

No one betrayed them, because the rest of them were the most suffering.

If you can.

No one wants to go on like this!

What's more, how could this group of prisoners of war, who were themselves the Silver Plate Kingdom, be willing to die here forever?

Just when the Southern County Commander organized the troops and attempted to completely annihilate the Northern County Commander's troops, these serfs also began to organize spontaneously, and nearly 5,000 people were distributed in various farms of the Southern County Commander, carefully collecting any materials.

These include purpose-sharpened pitchforks and sickles, fairly sturdy planks, and tattered cloth and hides.

and a little brown bread left every day.

Pitchforks and scythes can be used as weapons.

Planks can be made into shields.

Washing and drying animal skins with feces and urine is equivalent to leather made of nitrate, which is a good armor.

Everything was in the process of preparation, but the small actions of these serfs were not seen by the already high-ranking management, or for them, it was impossible for the serfs to rebel.

The southern county leader is so powerful, even the Yinpan Kingdom has been repelled, and the serfs want to rebel?

What a joke!

None of them take it seriously.

A group of people who are not well fed and clothed, and who have to die and work all day long are doing farm work.

Even eating meat is an extremely luxurious thing, how can you have the physical strength to make these serfs rebel?

But these old men in the management couldn't imagine that the wealth of the southern county leader had exceeded their imagination, at least, the black bread was full, and it was so extravagant that there was not even sawn wood powder in it.

These black breads are eaten only by wealthy freemen in the North County Territory.

Meat can be eaten by catching voles or water snakes.

Nanjun Collar is really a good place.

These seemingly tired and dejected, thin serfs are actually tense muscles, and the fatigue is only consumed by the daily high-intensity farm work.

Once they stop farming.

Came back.

It will be a group of unwilling rebel troops composed of serfs who want to overthrow the southern county territory, with hatred!
