If I let you farm, will you become the emperor of the empire?

Ten days later.

He knew that the nobles and Count Kant were recruiting merchant ships upstream.

Two more armies appeared in Kant Territory, namely the Wieliczka family and the Simon family.

They gathered most of their forces in a short period of time.

This showed that they had been planning for a long time.

Being stationed in Kant Territory was the only choice.

To attack the town of Sger, there must be a suitable place to stay.

Therefore, the number of merchant ships coming to Sger Town became increasingly scarce.

In the past, a merchant ship could be seen going down the river every two or three days.

Now, even five or six days may not see a merchant ship docked at the dock of Sger Town.

Merchants have a keen sense of smell. The shadow of war shrouded this desolate land. How dare they come here? They were scared to death.

Many people have seen the scene when the two armies faced each other-

The sky was gloomy and chaotic, snowflakes were floating, and under the protection of the huge iron shields in the front row, the soldiers in the rear were as solemn as the wind, facing an army of thousands of people, forcing them not to dare to take a step forward, and those slaves boarded the ship one by one.

There is basically no possibility for the two sides to coexist, and there will be bloodshed in the future.

Merchants are fence-sitters. They dare not be sure that the winner will definitely be the downstream, nor do they hope that the upstream will win. They can only wait until the dust settles.

Whoever wins, they will do business with.

...

Steve Guerande.

The Guerande family made their fortune by relying on the salt field.

The nobles' demand for resources is never enough.

They learned about the salt production in this area last autumn, but they did not take action until this year. There are many internal reasons behind it-

First of all, it takes a reason to declare war on a lord.

The nobles generally have a complex network of relationships behind them.

Simply put, who doesn't have a relative?

Attacking another lord for no reason just because you are jealous of the other party's territory output is too ugly-it's not impossible, as long as the fist is big enough, it doesn't matter.

The problem is that the other party is not easy to mess with.

Anyone who hears the surname Liejia will think twice.

Everyone in the Black Iron Land knows that the Grand Duke of Split Armor dotes on his children. How dare you rob the descendants of Split Armor without a legitimate reason?

I dare not move, I really dare not move.

Secondly, the town of Sge is too remote, with dangerous roads and surrounded by mountains, which is not convenient for attacking.

But many things have happened since last year, which made them re-examine the matter.

…

First, the situation in the Black Iron Land is treacherous, and the Grand Duke of Split Armor is powerless to take care of it.

Second, the humiliating defeat of Count Kant has become the biggest topic of this land.

Smash it!

Smash you!

Even rabbits know not to eat grass near their nests!

Six hundred people!

And in front of Count Kant, let people see it!

Pah!

Disgusting!

If you are short of labor, you can spend some money!

Spend some!

Introduce some farmers from other nobles to your territory.

Even buy slaves!

It doesn't cost much, even if you cover your face and sneakily rob some people, you can frame them as robbers.

As a result, you rob openly, just like a bandit!

Even worse than a bandit!

It's fine if you rob people as a bandit!

But you dare to kill nobles? !

Don't give them a chance to redeem them, just kill them directly? That's the same as killing yourself!

Since you don't follow the rules and kill other people's barons first, don't blame everyone for being rude to you!

Even the Grand Duke of the Split Armor has nothing to say.

Gelande and Wieliczka, who have always been paying attention to this matter, made a decision immediately and contacted the Bechts family.

In name, they are helping Count Kant to get justice.

But the problem is that Carter and Simon also joined in by force.

They are not here just to get money, but have made full preparations.

The Simon family sent 1,500 qualified conscripts.

They were either covered in mail or leather armor, and most of the weapons they held were iron, which could be called elite soldiers.

The Carter family was slightly inferior, with only 800 people, but they claimed to have 1,600 people, because the beast warriors of the Carter family could fight two people at once.

This statement attracted the sneer of the Wieliczka family at the conference table.

Then, he couldn't laugh anymore.

The people of the Carter family were staring at him. He was as strong as a beast, and his eyes were like vultures, with a kind of tyrannical atmosphere.

Foucault Wieliczka subconsciously took a step back, and after pulling away, he became angry and glared back.

"Only beasts would show their teeth!"

"Then you must know who is bluffing!" Carter's head was very pointy, bald and hairless, his skull was a little deformed, and his face was covered with scars.

"You two, the important thing now is how to attack the town of Sger."

The host, Count Kant, stopped the dispute in time to prevent the conflict from escalating.

"The people of the Bechtes family haven't come yet." Steve from the Garande family said.

He didn't like Carter either. This family came from the west and had dealt with the forest barbarians. Later, they expanded to the east and obtained a large area of ​​​​territory with brutal and bloody acts to intimidate other nobles.

Some people say that they have the blood of those barbarians flowing in their veins.

Many shameful things have happened in their territory. They are called "robber nobles" and their family motto is "beasts are immortal."

But now they are collaborators and an alliance.

The young lord of the town of Sger refused to let all the nobles in.

This clearly meant that he wanted to take over the salt field alone. Everyone was quite surprised by this and initially thought that this was a way to kill himself.

After seeing the terrain here, they no longer thought so.

No matter how many troops there are, they can't do anything without a suitable battlefield. The knights are land creatures.

They have to prepare a batch of ships for this.

Count Kant provided assistance, and he can also be counted as one of them. Now the Bechts family is still missing.

"Six thousand people can't flatten a small town? According to Lord Carter, we have more than ten thousand people." Wieliczka said confidently, teasing one of their partners.

It's enough to have Count Kant to share a piece of the pie.

He is a local tyrant. If they want to attack the town of Sger, they can't bypass Count Kant.

There is no way, after all, those who see it have a share.

But Carter and Simon are both rising stars and very aggressive.

Wieliczka would rather pay them a sum of money to send them away than to let them interfere in the salt mine.

In comparison, he is happy to see the arrival of Bechts.

The three families of Bechts, Garand, and Wieliczka control three-quarters of the salt production in the Black Iron Land and can sell the salt to the surrounding lands.

He is a real noble.

But Bechtes is the farthest from the town of Sger, hundreds of kilometers away, and he has no power to influence here. He can only let others run it, and at most he can collect a harvest regularly.

"Everyone! I have to remind you that the young lord is not meat on our chopping board." Count Kant said.

He spread the news that Roman killed the priests.

But the Church can't make trouble in a short time, and the news has not yet reached Sinnoh.

Now the main force is still the noble army.

"My Lord Count, I know your concerns very well-you have suffered a great loss, so you must be cautious-but we have our rules." Wieliczka said.

He is a little proud, the Count can see it, and Garand can see it, but no one points it out.

Because this knight is the legitimate son of the Lord of Wieliczka, the future Count will sooner or later be on par with Kant... or, in other words, higher than Kant.

Because the territory of Wieliczka is several times richer than Kant's territory.

This young, strong, handsome warrior knight wore a green magic steel armor, exquisite and gorgeous, engraved with the golden treasure chest emblem belonging to Wieliczka.

"His army is well-equipped and well-trained!" The count repeated with a grim expression.
