However, the soldiers around the Grand Duke of the North are definitely the best soldiers in the North.
Even if they suffered a sudden fatal blow, they still did not panic.
Forming an orderly formation, they tried to resist the opponent's next attack and find a way to break out.
It was a pity that the Stuart family had no intention of engaging in hand-to-hand combat.
The waves of arrows coming from the dark night were as cold and cunning as their current reputation, and took away the lives of the northern warriors.
Even if the northern warriors extinguished some torches, the arrow rain attack did not stop for a moment.
It seems that the Stuart family has enough bows and arrows to ensure that all the Habs family warriors stay in place tonight.
In fact, with the financial resources of the Stuart family and their large number of factories.
They did have enough numbers, and their arrows were sharp enough to take the lives of all the northern warriors.
And with the support of a large number of workshops, what the Stuart family is most indispensable for is a variety of tools.
The retreat was completely blocked by countless barbed iron nails, and the Stuart family even installed a simple horse-rejecting fence on the road.
After trying for a while and being unable to return the same way, Joseph, the Grand Duke's captain of the bodyguard, came to the Grand Duke of the North.
"The way back is cut off.
They knew we were coming from the beginning.
This is a trap.
Your Excellency, please order a breakout.
I will protect you and fight your way out."
The road is blocked at both ends, but there are woods on both sides.
Although there must be many members of the Stuart family inside, with the bravery of the northern warriors, it won't be a problem to get out.
Even a simple trap cannot save the life of the Northern Archduke.
This is something that the Duke of the Sea knew before setting the trap.
But they had their next move, and he was not the one who actually killed the Northern Archduke.
The Duke, who was hiding in the darkness, looked at his pocket watch in the moonlight and muttered something similar.
Sure enough, the surrounded Northern Duke and others had not yet begun to break out.
The horse that was originally blocking the road was forcibly torn apart by external forces, and then a young voice sounded in the darkness, which belonged to John who was supposed to be on the other side.
"Father, go this way" I felt a little strange why John appeared here, but his behavior must have helped me.
The Grand Duke of the North has no doubts and no extra choice.
He called his men and rushed towards the gap that John had destroyed.
With several great knights like Joseph escorting him, the Grand Duke naturally broke through the siege of the Stuart family safely.
It is a pity that the Stuart family did not let too many soldiers of the Habsburg family leave.
The gap destroyed by John quickly closed again.
Seeing that the Grand Duke actually planned to go back to save people, John naturally would not let him go.
Random action.
"Father, we don't have much time.
My people also encountered an ambush.
Although they got rid of the enemy, there are only two or three hundred people left with me.
If we continue to stay here, the Stuart family will become more and more serious."
The more we gather.”
The night was so dark that the Northern Archduke could barely make out John's figure.
Baron Carter, who used to pay attention to appearance, now looks really embarrassed, and not only his clothes, but also his face seems to have big black shadows.
His Majesty the Grand Duke, whose profession is killing, naturally recognized the mark of blood, so he did not doubt John.
"Someone has betrayed us, and there must be someone from the Stuart family on the way back.
We need to find a place to hold out until dawn.
As soon as dawn comes, someone will realize that something is wrong."
After dawn, the army in the north will launch a large-scale attack, and by then they will naturally be out of danger.

It's just that the Grand Duke was able to escape from the pursuit of the Stuart family, but he didn't expect that his own people would kill them.
The more than 300 knights beside John are not the wandering knights he gathered in the north.
With the reputation of Baron Carter, it is impossible to recruit a great knight with a precious weapon.
If the Grand Duke of the North could observe carefully, maybe he would be able to discover something strange about John's team.
For example, John was covered in blood, but their mounts were very clean.
You must know that war horses are not protected by armor.
After encountering an ambush, horses are often injured before people.
The Grand Duke and his horses had more or less wounds.
After galloping for a certain distance, they had to stop and rest.
"Okay, we're already some distance away.
Let everyone take care of their horses and don't make any noise.
We can hold on here until dawn."
There are actually only about two hours until dawn, so it is not difficult for the Grand Duke and his gang to escape for two hours.
But with John as a traitor, how could they escape the pursuit of the Stuart family?
While taking the initiative to take on the task of guarding, Baron Carter hinted to the people he brought to get ready.
Because the northern warriors who escaped were somewhat unexpected, it would be difficult to annihilate the Archduke's gang without leaving anyone alive, so John needed help from the Stuart family.
Two hours was enough time for them to set up an encirclement around the perimeter.
The only prerequisite is to get rid of the bodyguards around Grand Duke Habsburg.
If these guys risk their lives, it is not impossible to protect the Grand Duke and break through again.
How to deal with those big knights, John's way is to poison and sneak attack.
Without a priest present, poison is much more effective than a sword.
"Father, have a drink of water.
It will be dawn soon.
If the Stuart family continues to pursue us, the Marquis and others will definitely make them look good."
Like the others, the Archduke did not reject John's offer.
But when he returned the water bag to John and asked John to take a sip, the guy put the things away on the excuse that he was not tired for the time being.
Thinking that John was deliberately keeping it for himself to quench his thirst, Archduke Habsburg, who was in danger, was still in the mood to analyze the reasons for this victory or defeat.
"We have a traitor here, and his status is definitely not low.
Otherwise, he wouldn't know so many things, and he wouldn't have the chance to leak our whereabouts.
It seems that I underestimated the Stuart family. .
Neither Otto nor you should actually come out with me this time. " A Stuart family is really not worth caring about, but with the addition of Keira, their strength has made a qualitative leap.
The Archduke Habs will naturally suffer if he underestimates them, and bringing Otto and John out with them is also the root of the Habs family's imminent decline.
Calculating that it might take a while for the poison to develop, John delayed the time through dialogue.
"Father, the Stuart family only won a small victory.
But our power in the north is still there, and they cannot win the final victory
