"Duke Bohemond of the Bastogne Duchy has just received the call for aid. He and his duchy need time to gather their armies. We all know Bastogne's unique situation..." Antelme continued, "So we must wait at least until the fall harvest is over."
Most of the knight lords of Bastogne Duchy are Holy Grail Knights, which immerses the entire duchy in the glory of the past. The life of the citizens is fairly decent, and the nobility's corruption is relatively low. However, simultaneously, the internal affairs capacity of the entire duchy is also relatively low, especially for Bohemond himself. He always appoints deputies to manage the duchy while he stays in Bastogne Castle with the knights of the Red Dragon Knight Brotherhood, engaging in duels and driving away various powerful enemies all day.
In such circumstances, organizing an army in Bastogne would certainly require a lot of time.
