Chapter 45 Success

Thinking of the worries and fears of these days, and even the dissatisfaction with Count Perez's slowness, they all disappeared.

The old earl was still prudent and would settle the situation if he did not take action.

The Governor stretched his head to look, and saw only the figure of a knight standing upright under the torch.

"Knight below, is Count Pereira here?"

"The legion commander is still three days away."

Derek answered honestly.

The governor became a little pale: "Then who commanded this? How many people came?"

"I commanded them. Eight hundred people from the 10th Thousand People's Team of the Second Legion came, and one thousand people from the Eighth Thousand People's Team of the First Army."

"Only eighteen hundred people?"

The governor's voice broke. He thought that the entire Northland army had arrived, and the barbarians were defeated.

Who knew there were only such a few people?

Are you lying to me?

Look around again, are you still playing me?

Are all the Northern Knights so fierce?

Derek's voice still reached the top of the city clearly: "The barbarians are just vulnerable. I am a little tired from running for hundreds of miles today. Let me have a good rest for a day and then defeat the barbarian camp."

Derek is showing off again.

According to his judgment, the barbarians had lost their troops and generals, so they must retreat.

If we don't take advantage of the fact that the main force is not coming, it will be difficult to leave by then.

In fact, if he delayed it for two more days, the effect would be better.

But as a large force approaches and the barbarians are more vigilant, they may not have such a good opportunity or such a big result.

Although he might kill fewer barbarians, it would be in his best interest.

Kingdom interests?

Does it have anything to do with being a little knight?

And, if the results are good, no one will care.

These Lord Governors didn't know that he was shocked beyond words. He had been traveling around several central provinces in the first half of his life and had never experienced such a large-scale war. He was suddenly blinded by Derek.

He was still muttering in his heart, what a powerful knight, if he were given more people, he would probably kill the barbarians today.

This caused his voice to lower unconsciously: "May I ask your name?"

"Von Derek."

The governor kept this name in his heart, and then said politely: "Knight Derek, it is inconvenient to enter the city today. When the barbarians retreat, I will host a banquet for you."

Derek nodded, knowing that this person would probably be beheaded if he wasn't so cautious, so he left immediately.

He didn't know that his second brother, Sergey, felt that the voice sounded familiar just now. When he heard his name, he was so shocked that he dropped his weapon.

"Is this my brother here?"

"Is he so fierce?"

"You're not dreaming, are you?"

Before he could verify it, he heard the Governor asking which family name Derek came from.

Although Derek was just an inconspicuous person before, the nobles did have professionals who studied genealogy.

"Derek is a direct descendant of the Ferreira family. He currently has no fiefdom. His full name should be von Ferreira Derrick.

The Ferreira family is a long-established military noble in our north. They were knighted during the pioneering war a hundred years ago. Thirty years ago during the secession war, they also attacked the barbarians in the north and the Holy Cross Kingdom army in the east.

By the way, I remember that the Ferreira family also has children serving in the Iron Lion Corps. "

Then, Sergey was called to the Governor in a daze.

Fortunately, he looked good, answered a few questions from the governor, and even received a sentence from the governor that he was indeed a general.

Then he went back in a daze.

The Ferreira family, a military aristocracy, suddenly became famous.

There was only one thought in his mind: "The third child is going to be prosperous."

This was not Sergey's idea alone. When he calmed down, everyone knew that Derek was going to be strong this time.

Using a small number to defeat a large number, riding a horse on the enemy's camp, and displaying power in front of the army are all worthy of praise.

It is only in those legendary stories that we can see such characters.

After all, a barbarian invasion was a major event that occurred once in ten years at least. Each side sent tens of thousands of troops, and even an earl was beheaded, which was a major event that shocked a country.

On such a big stage that attracts everyone's attention, any outstanding performance can attract attention, and the future is promising.

What's more, Derek is so dazzling and impeccable.

When Baron Palmer saw Derek, he no longer cared about being reserved and kept talking: "I have three daughters. Whichever one you like, I will send it home to you right away. The one you want to marry I will divorce her.

You can send all three together, and I will give you three manors as a dowry. "

Derek enjoyed the three daughters of Baron Palmer, which seemed a bit tempting, especially... wives.

Well, let him chatter a little and be considerate of the Baron's excitement.

More importantly, officers came forward one after another to express their loyalty.

After seeing Derek's ability, even the officers who joined later were in awe of him.

In the military, although there is politics, it is inseparable from strength.

A powerful Shangguan is undoubtedly a guarantee of military success and safety.

Even Baron Palmer's subordinates are willing to come up and get close to each other, maybe they will be used in the future.

Although he was at the peak of his power, Derek was still cautious and retreated about ten miles to set up camp.

If you are careless at this time and are taken over by barbarians, all your efforts will be wasted.

In fact, he was right to be cautious.

Although the barbarian commander was cautious, it did not mean he would do nothing.

Once a small number of detectives are sent out, many secrets will no longer be secrets.

Knowing that the attack on his southern camp was only a small number of Megaman troops, and even the great defeat of Enrique, the lone wolf, was all caused by this small number of Megaman troops.

He was first furious, and then immediately considered whether he could fight back.

However, when he learned that Derek had set up camp far away and even prepared early warning measures, he knew he had no chance.

"Damn it, all the plans were ruined by this Megaman army. Send someone to find out who is commanding this army."

No matter how hard it is to accept, it is the fact, and we must find out how we failed.

There were also barbarian generals who couldn't swallow this breath and shouted loudly: "Big leader, let me take people to kill him. Give me one day, I will definitely bring back the head of Rockman."

"Idiots, a group of idiots with muscles in their brains, are they as stupid as you?" The barbarian leader scolded and roared angrily: "As long as he delays for two days, the army of Rockman will arrive, and then we will be the ones who can't leave."

Whether you are willing to accept it or not, you must admit that the army has lost more than one-third of its troops and its morale has been severely damaged. It has no confidence to fight with Rockman.

At this time, it is better to stop while you are ahead, at least it can't be considered a failure.

"We retreat, Rockman's plan has been interrupted by us. Let those charlatans fight with them, and we barbarians can gain a foothold."

The barbarian commander's mind is very clear. Tactical failure is only painful, but strategic failure is fatal.

The barbarians certainly know Rockman's plan, so there is this lightning attack.

Next, whether they win or lose, they must leave.
