"Hooray!"
In front of a castle, the cheers of the commoners rang out.
Another noble was sent to the gallows.
"Take your weapons. Before sunset the day after tomorrow, the Queen hopes to see you in the Starfall Valley outside Yorkshire!”
A female official shouted at the commoners.
York City, the largest city in Yorkshire, was also where the Governor's Mansion was located.
However, the current governor of York, Marquis Lauren, was not in York City. Instead, he had returned to the capital with Princess Jasmine to support her ascension.
With the overall situation already decided, the ministers and officials in the capital were powerless to change the situation. They could only choose to support Princess Jasmine.
Without the protection of force, power was just empty.
.
"There should be enough time."
Qi Feibai calculated the time and said softly.
It had been three days since he had split up with Princess Rose.
In the past three days, Qi Feibai had swept away the nobles who had stayed behind to suppress the civilians. He had already sent more than ten nobles to the gallows.
More and more civilians were given weapons.
Under the lead of these commoners, more commoners joined in, causing the snowball to roll bigger and bigger.
As for Princess Rose, Qi Feibai was not worried.
Princess Rose's 10,000-man light carriage was simple, so it was not so easy to catch up.
Moreover, Princess Rose was in the right place at the right time.
She brought a large number of Yorkshire-born civilians with her. These civilians knew the way and knew which path was the closest and easiest to take.
Cavalry was indeed powerful, but cavalry could not travel on any road.
At this time, it was very important to have someone who knew the way.
As the commoners were siding with Princess Rose, the noble cavalry could not get any information from the commoners.
This was very important.
It was impossible for Princess Rose's army to pass by without being noticed. If the civilians answered truthfully, the nobles 'cavalry would be able to chase after them accurately.
But now, the commoners either said they didn't know or pointed out the wrong route, making it difficult for the nobles to pursue them.
.
On the other hand, the news that Qi Feibai had taken action against the nobles who had stayed behind to suppress the commoners did not leak out. It would be difficult for it to leak out.
The commoners naturally knew, but would they tell the nobles 'army?
Even if someone wanted to send a message, the noble's pursuers were so fast and their location was unknown. These people had no way of sending a message.
The time that Qi Feibai calculated was the time it would take for Princess Rose to march according to the route he had given her.
As well as the time Princess Jasmine returned to the capital.
If Princess Jasmine had chosen to travel in a light carriage, she should have returned to the capital by now.
However, after returning to the capital, Princess Jasmine could not ascend the throne immediately. She still had to make some preparations for the ascension. No matter what, she would need a few days to prepare.
Normally, a king would need at least a month or two to prepare for his ascension.
He also had to inform some friendly countries in advance so that they could send envoys over.
Princess Jasmine's ascension this time was a race against time. Many procedures would be omitted, but it would not be too simple.
Therefore, there was enough time.
.
Qi Feibai led the army and left the place once again.
They rushed to the next battlefield.
Here, the commoners who had picked up their swords prepared their own rations and headed to York City in groups.
"Where are you going?"
When the long line of commoners passed by a small town, they attracted the attention of the people in the town.
"York City, the rebels are chasing after the king. We need to gather in York City and help the king defeat the rebels!”
A commoner with a sword on his back said.
"I heard that as long as you join the army, you can obtain six mu of land and enjoy a halved tax. Is that right?”
In the small town, a man in his twenties asked.
"Of course, not only that, as long as we defeat the rebel army, we will no longer be oppressed by the nobles!”
the commoner said.
"Wait for me, I'll go too!"
The man immediately went home, picked up a chopper, and followed.
"I want to go too!"
The others were also tempted.
They had long heard of this decree and were also somewhat restless. However, this small town was relatively remote and no one took the lead, so no one took action.
Now, seeing that so many commoners were going, the other commoners followed suit.
Under such circumstances, the number of commoners heading to York City increased.
People followed the crowd. If you asked him to go out and fight alone, he might not dare, but if there were a hundred or a thousand of them, he would have the courage.
Moreover, there were huge benefits.
.
"Starfall Valley!"
Another day passed. This morning, Qi Feibai brought his men to a canyon.
This was the Starfall Valley.
The Starfall Valley was located in the largest city in Yorkshire. Outside York City, it was the only road to York City.
This canyon was very long, but it was very wide and flat, so there was no fortress here.
At this moment, the Fallen Star Valley was already packed with people.
Commoners gathered everywhere.
The number of commoners who had arrived was even more than Qi Feibai had expected.
These commoners were scattered all over the mountain. They had prepared their own rations and weapons. These weapons were the ones that Qi Feibai had seized from the nobles.
Some of them had their own.
There were also a large number of commoners carrying long wooden poles because Qi Feibai had instructed them to do so.
This was a sharp weapon against cavalry.
