After discovering that Charles VIII had escaped, Marin began to get upset, but soon he realized that the Frenchman moral had collapsed.
The king took the lead to escape, the rest of the people, and confidence to continue fighting?
So Marin began to speak under the command of knowing French:
"Knights of France, your king, has taken the lead to run away shamefully. Do you still need to fight for such a coward? Don't die deadly."
"We guarantee the preferential treatment of prisoners. As long as you surrender, we will not kill anyone. The nobles will also receive preferential treatment."
Marin quickly used the strategy of the later period to attack the heart.
"In addition, to the injured knight, we will also arrange for treatment. Do not delay the treatment time, will die, will be disabled."
.........
Hearing here, the Count of Flers, who led the remnants of the French Knights, changed his face. Because he is also worried that he will become disabled.
When a timid baron came to suggest a surrender, Flers quickly went downhill and agreed to surrender.
But there are also some stubborn people who are unwilling to surrender. They couldn't charge on horseback, so they simply dismounted and climbed over the stones that had fallen. Then, these people threw away their armor and weapons and ran away with bare hands.
"Great...Sire...we French surrendered."
Marin is still commanding, but the French sent messengers and expressed their willingness to surrender.
"Is this surrender?" Marlin groaned, but then became overjoyed.
"Quick, go and accept their surrender. Notify the opposite side, to Schwartz and and let him prepare the groundwork."
"In addition, you tell the French to leave the weapons and the horses aside, and for those who obey, they will be assured of preferential treatment!"
The Frenchman took off their armor and weapon and Marin quickly commanded the men to go down the mountain and surrounded the remaining 4,000 French people to prevent them from seeing the fact that there were only a thousand people on their side. In addition, Marin also sent people to tie these knights. These people are all knights who know martial arts. If they resist, it is very difficult to get it. Therefore, first tied up is the best choice.
Then, Schwartz took his company and quickly concentrated the horses in the valley.
Because of the use of the stone and the arrow, the horses in the valley suffered heavy losses. Just a horse was killed and 2000 injured. The light horse, the loss is even worse, with up to 4,000 deaths and injuries.
After the inventory, Marin was pleasantly surprised to find that there were 2,000 intact horses and 3,600 horses in the valley who ran during the ambush.
"Ah, hahahaha, I did it!" Marin laughed.
You know, a war horse is worth at least 100 Ducat gold coins. 2000 horses, equivalent to 200,000 Ducat gold coins. A gold coin contains about 3.5 grams of gold, 200,000 gold coins, and almost 700,000 grams. According to the lowest price of 200 grams per gram in later generations, at least more than 100 million soft sister coins... How can this not make, Sir Knight Marin, excited?
In addition, those who are riding horses, there are also good horses of ordinary race who are only a little worse than the war horses. The minimum is also worth 20 gold coins. 3,600 horses can also be worth more than 70,000 gold coins.
All in all, Marin is rich, and it is a big fortune!
He is still not happy here, and Schwartz also returns:
"What? We obtained 6,000 sets of plates armors?" Marlin almost fainted.
You know, this age, a set of ordinary knights armor cost 50 florin gold coins, equivalent to 50 Ducat. And those rich aristocrats have plate armor, made better, and the price is higher, at least 100 Ducat.
6000 sets of French plate armor, at least 500 pieces are high-end armor worn by wealthy nobles, which is of great value. In short, Marin made a fortune.
At this time, the French army officers, have taken off the plate armor, and are now wearing linen or silk clothes, and unarmed. At this time, they can't turn over the waves.
Just right, the sky is bright. It was early in the summer, and it was not until 5 o'clock, and the day began to light up. When Earl of Flore saw that the "German army" who captured them had only two or three thousand people (he mistook the Italian farmer as a German mercenary), he felt a bit ashamed.
Marin is good for these captives, especially the aristocratic prisoners. Because, he learned that the Middle Ages had the habit of redeeming the captured nobles. In general, an earl, still rich French count, ransom at least 50,000 gold coins.
Therefore, Marin called the Count of Flers to talk. Earl of Flers was injured in the left leg. Marin personally told his men to use two wooden stick to héla the Count of Flers.
Then, the viscounts and barons who followed Flers' capture were also treated with courtesy. Not Marin respects them, but they are all gold coins!
But when it was just dawn, Marin suddenly thought of something and told Kohler:
"Fast, hide these horses and armor, and hide them in the valley hidden before us!"
Kohler is somewhat puzzled, Marin explained:
"The Italian, after dawn, is likely to send people here to see, seeing us so many spoils, will they not be blinded by greed?"
Kohler understood it immediately. Then, with 100 of his most reliable men, he directed the Italian farmer and transported 2000 horses and plate armors to secret locations.
Halfway, Kohler also picked up 2000 sets of plate armor and horses that Charles VIII took off when he ran away.
Marin was not at ease, and the Italians had not found the situation here, and they quickly sent people back to Kohler. He simply took the captives and the whole army went straight north.
You know, he only got 1,100 people, and he got such a big fortune. If it is known to the more than 10,000 Italians, it will definitely be not end well.
Therefore, in order to avoid being robbed by allies, he went straight to the army. As for the more than 1,000 Italian farmers, he was also forced to help him transport the spoils. At the same time, weapons were also issued to them to hire mercenaries.
After all, the 2,000-person man is also considered a "big army" in Italy. In addition to the tens of thousands of people in the coalition, there are basically a few thousand people in Italy who dare to do something about his "huge" team. At least, there is no armies on Marin's North withdrawal route.
