A few days later, a few kilometers north of Ellington.
"Mr. Hank, Ellington is in front of us."
"Oh?"
The man called Hank sneered: "We are about to enter Ellington, but there are not even a few decent villages around. It can be seen how poor Ellington is. The lord of such a place dares to provoke Baron Duwei?"
"Mr. Hank, Ellington's poverty is second to none in the empire. Almost no one is willing to come here. Those who live here are all natives."
Hank's deputy laughed: "A group of country bumpkins, naturally they don't know the power of Baron Duwei."
"Then we'll let them know that the dignity of the Baron is inviolable!"
Hank waved his hand: "Everyone, speed up the march! Today we will flatten Ellington and return to Kasparmi Castle with victory! "
"Awooo!!!"
The five hundred soldiers behind him roared in unison, their morale greatly boosted.
Outside Ellington Town, Elsa led the first and second guards of Ellington to gather here. Although there was no trace of the enemy, but the Lord ordered them to gather today, so they unconditionally obeyed the order.
Tang En later reorganized the original Ellington guards and the surrendered soldiers of Kasparmi Castle. This way, the soldiers could integrate into Ellington as soon as possible.
In fact, the effect was really good. In just two or three days, these surrendered soldiers had already become familiar with many people.
At this time, Tang En slowly walked out of the town with a faint smile on his face. Beside him was an excited Brian.
"My Lord!"
Elsa quickly stepped forward: "Everyone is ready, but the enemy hasn't arrived yet. Don't we need to make some preparations in advance? For example, dig some traps or something? "
"No, they're almost here."
Tang En casually said: "A group of mobs … Is the blood of the goddess ready?"
"It's ready!"
Elsa whispered: "I've prepared a few small bottles for everyone. It's convenient to open and drink at any time during the battle."
Fiona felt that Tang En was wasteful to prepare the blood of the goddess for the soldiers. Soldiers were consumables. Wasting such a precious treasure like the blood of the goddess on them was simply outrageous.
Coupled with Tang En's careless appearance, Fiona almost had a stomach full of anger these days. Tang En would avoid her whenever he saw her, not daring to provoke her.
But in reality, Tang En's decision was very effective. When the soldiers found out that the small bottles given to them contained water mixed with the Blood of the Goddess, they were all as excited as if they had been injected with chicken blood.
At this time, the surrendered soldiers finally understood why they couldn't win in the mines.
He even had the Goddess's Blood as his standard weapon. He could recover from his injuries just by taking a sip. How could he possibly win?
But now, they were also able to enjoy such treatment. This made Ultraman and the others feel very fortunate.
Fortunately, they chose to surrender. Otherwise, they might not be able to enjoy such a treasure like the blood of the goddess for the rest of their lives.
With such a treasure, these soldiers had full confidence in defeating the soldiers of Kasparmi Castle.
Previously, at the mine, Ellington only had 50 people, yet he was able to defeat 150 people. That was a difference of three times their numbers. Now, they had a total of 200 people, while the enemy only had 500 people. It was not even three times their numbers!
Not to mention, they had the powerful captain Elsa, the black whirlwind dwarf, and even the powerful and unfathomable Lord.
How could they lose this battle!
"Too slow! It's really too slow! Big brother, why don't we take the initiative to attack? "
Brian swayed left and right with his warhammer, unable to stay still for a moment: "It's too annoying to just wait like this."
Tang En smiled. "Indeed. Let's go forward and welcome the guests. It would be bad if we were to fight at our doorstep and affect the town."
Under Tang En's command, Ellington's soldiers began to advance to the north.
In this way, the distance between the two sides was quickly shortened. At this time, the soldiers of Kasparmi Castle had not even seen Ellington.
At this time, Hank's deputy saw the scout's report and shouted: "Lord Hank! The scouts have found traces of the enemy ahead! "
"Is that so?"
Hank smiled faintly: "It seems that Ellington's country bumpkins can't sit still. In that case, let's open their eyes and let them know what a fully armed elite soldier is!"
"Yes!"
Hank passed down the order, and the soldiers of Kasparmi Castle immediately quickened their pace. The shiny armor and weapons on their bodies emitted a cold light under the sun, allowing Ellington's people in the distance to see them clearly.
"My Lord, the enemy is well-equipped. I'm afraid this battle won't be easy … How about we change the commander? I really don't understand this. "
Elsa frowned. It was too much for her to command the battle. She actually wanted to charge and break through the enemy lines.
Tang En sighed. He had no one to use, so he forced Elsa to do something beyond her ability. Of course, he knew that Elsa was more suited to be a powerful general, not a commander, but …
"In that case, let Uncle Depp command first. He's old and has a lot of experience."
Hearing Tang En's words, Elsa happily went to give the order. This made Tang En shake his head.
As the saying goes, a mage who doesn't want to be a chef is not a good driver … Er, a soldier who doesn't want to be a general is not a good soldier. As long as one was a person, they would want to firmly hold the power in their hands. But Elsa didn't want to care so much …
After all, she was just a little girl.
It was also at this time that Tang En remembered that Elsa was just a sixteen-year-old girl.
Hmm, a sixteen-year-old girl … who blew up a building with one punch …
Tang En stared into the distance.
"My Lord!"
Depp, who had been given the command, was very troubled. He didn't expect to be given such an important position.
"Uncle Depp, don't feel pressured. The enemy is just a mob. We can win easily."
Tang En smiled casually. "But Elsa doesn't want to command. In the future, this task will still be given to you. So, you should take this opportunity to learn."
"But it's too late for me to learn now … I'm already forty years old …"
"It's not too late. Live and learn. It's because you're old that you have to be more mature. That's why I'm letting you command. Once you've mastered the experience, you can train Elsa and the others. "
"This … Alright!"
Depp agreed. Although he used to be an ordinary Ellington militia, since the Lord trusted him so much, he would work hard to learn.
As they spoke, the distance between them was very close. Depp could even see the sweat on Depp's face.
"Stop!"
At Hank's command, the soldiers stopped in their tracks. They didn't say a word, and the momentum of the legion pressed down on the Ellington Guard.
The Ellington Guard couldn't help but become restless. But soon, they calmed down.
Hank urged his horse forward and looked at Tang En with a sarcastic expression. "Are you a country bumpkin from Ellington?"
Ultraman mustered up his courage and shouted, "How dare you! The one standing here is the Lord of Ellington, Baron Lord Tang En! "
"This voice … Are you Ultraman from the third brigade? Oh, there are others … as expected. "
Hank frowned and sneered. "So the Lord was telling the truth. The soldiers stationed at the mine have all defected to Ellington. Trash with no sense of honor. They deserve to die!"
There was a commotion in the Ellington Guard. The surrendered soldiers were filled with righteous indignation.
If it weren't for Duwei giving up on them, how could they have defected to Tang En?
Now, he actually framed them and said that they had defected to Ellington!
Grievances, anger, and blazing flames were burning in their chests. They couldn't wait to rush up and fight with them.
Tang En raised his eyebrows. "Duwei didn't come?"
"Why would the Lord Baron come to a place like Ellington in person? That would be an insult to his identity."
Hank said disdainfully. "I didn't expect you to be the Lord of Ellington. Sure enough, you have the rustic smell of a country bumpkin. You actually came to fight in person. Are you afraid that they will escape, so you came to supervise the battle?"
The rustic smell of a country bumpkin?
Tang En looked at his clothes speechlessly. Although they were somewhat different from the gorgeous clothes of the nobles, he also wore expensive Krypton clothes when he transmigrated. How could he be called rustic?
Wasn't this an insult to his aesthetic standards?!
Tang En felt the anger in his heart rising. He could tolerate other things, but this was the only thing he could not tolerate!
How dare you insult my aesthetic sense!
You deserve to die!
"In other words, Duwei is still hiding in Casparmi Castle?"
Tang En held back his anger. "I originally wanted to settle accounts with him here, but it seems that I still have to go there in person!"
"You want to blackmail the Lord? It's just wishful thinking!"
Hank laughed out loud. "You bunch of country bumpkins should just stay obediently in a godforsaken place like Ellington for the rest of your lives. That way, you can live more comfortably. Unfortunately, of all the things you should never have done, you shouldn't have angered the feudal lord. Now, are you ready to receive the feudal lord's fury?"
"Idiot."
Tang En snorted coldly. "Since you are here, then don't leave. All of you will be buried here."
"Nonsense, today I will let you know the power of our Casparmi Castle's Turtle Army!"
"Puff! The Turtle Army!? "
Suddenly hearing the name of this army, Tang En's accumulated anger was instantly vented. He said with his mouth agape, "Who is so talented? Who gave such a name? "
Even from so far away, Tang En could feel the green light above their heads.
"Of course it's Baron Duwei!"
Hank didn't hear the ridicule in Tang En's words and said proudly. "Our army's full name is the King of Casparmi Castle's Eight Sharp Blade Army … How about it? Are you shocked by such a domineering name? Unfortunately, it's useless to be shocked because you will soon die under our army's sharp blade! "
"I beg you, don't say it!"
Tang En clutched his stomach and felt the muscles on his face twitching. "If you want to fight, then fight. Don't talk nonsense!"
"You're courting death!"
Hank was infuriated by Tang En's attitude. He waved his sword and shouted, "Everyone, charge!"
