Lord of War

( ) William is back.銉琺鈾燭hinking鈾oad鈾uest銉?,"Just like Sean came back from the war, he also brought back some very good "trophies".

A Viscount, and two masters at the top of the Silver Peak.

Compared with Lonnie, Ruud Michelin was lucky, because at least he was not locked in a cage and transported back like a monkey or a mangy dog. At least the treatment along the way was still kept as a nobleman. etiquette. However, the two masters under Rude's command were not treated so well. For the sake of safety, both of them were imprisoned in a special prison car, and they were locked with thick and heavy iron chains, so they couldn't move easily. .聽.

When he came back this time, William brought back 2,000 steel-winged soldiers, and left Anno with 1,000 steel-winged and 1,000 white-winged mercenaries at Heidelberg. In terms of military strength alone, it is more than enough to suppress rebellion or certain unnecessary situations. Unless other territories send larger troops to attack, otherwise, in Rude's Viscounty, this force is enough to deter anyone.

After returning to the camp, the two high-ranking silver masters were nothing.

However, due to certain considerations, William still did not let these two people stay together, but sent one of them to the temple under construction in Baige Town, under the care of Sefanio; and the other was naturally Confined in the barracks, Reina is solely responsible for handling it. However, William didn't expect that the barracks would expand once after he left for a month or so, and there would be so many more strange creatures. .聽.

However, as a commander, William is naturally very happy about these creatures. Among other things, no one will dislike bearmen and tauren who are naturally suitable for heavy infantry, not to mention natural excellent fighters like gray elves. They can not only use bows and arrows, but also have the ability to fight in close quarters It's not weak either, but it's much stronger than those archers who have nothing to do once they get close.

Even William would be shocked by the appearance of this wonderful army. Not to mention Rude and his two masters.

When they saw this after entering the barracks, their faces were full of horror, which was completely different from the information they had obtained so far. If Ruud had known that Xiao En had such a powerful general and army, he would definitely not have participated in this coalition plan by Lonnis. It's just that it doesn't make any sense to say these words now, so Rude just looked at everything in the barracks in a daze, but in the end he didn't ask a word.

However, he also knew that he would not get any answers if he asked anyway. Along the way, he had changed his ways to extract some useful information from William.

Too bad it never worked out. Although William treated Rude according to the treatment of noble prisoners of war, this did not include that he would open his mouth to answer Rude's questions; as for Alfred. He was even more dismissive of the defeated, he didn't even have the thought of approaching Rude.

Originally, after William came back, he wanted to trouble the two barons again, but after hearing Xiao En say that the war was completely over and that the Boulder family even sent envoys. He can only dispel this idea. In this way, he didn't like Rude's opinion. Just throw the person to Sean to toss. However, William is quite honest, at least he said something nice for Rude.

Of course, Rude didn't know that it was this sentence that actually "saved" his life.

"This guy is not bad. He didn't order to fight our troops, so the casualties are not particularly large."

William said so.

...

Today's Baige Town has become very different from before.

Under the auspices of Neil. The army that Vivienne gave to Sean was not wasted. They were all sent out to help build the city. Because of the strength of the bearmen and tauren, the progress of the construction was obviously much faster. In fact, if you can get the unique building puppets to build. Then the speed is even faster, but it's a pity that this kind of thing is far from what Xiao En can afford at present, so he can only rely on the most primitive manpower.

Sean didn't tie up Rude, but took him to the house where Langnis was.

When the two met, they were obviously taken aback.

Rude didn't expect that the life of Lonnis in captivity was much better than he imagined, and he even had a large degree of freedom; but Lonnis didn't expect that Rud would become a prisoner. The legendary William personally took action, at most it was just to defeat Rude's coalition forces. How could it be possible to capture Rude as well? This is more difficult than defeating.

"From today, this Viscount Rudd is your roommate." Sean said.

"Roommate?" Both of them were taken aback.

"It probably means that from today onwards, both of you will be living in this house." Sean shrugged. "Anyway, there are several rooms in the house, so it doesn't matter if you each have one room."

Sean didn't pay attention to Lonnie's face at all. In fact, according to the tradition of noble captives, Sean should prepare another house for Rude, but there are indeed no vacancies in White Pigeon Town at present, and William is in the barracks. He made it clear that he didn't want to see this person, so Sean couldn't take Rude to Hongye Town, he could only let him share a house with Lonnie.

"But in my place, there is no one who eats for nothing." Sean turned around and looked at Rude, and then said, "If you want better treatment, or better food, then you There are only two ways. The first is to make an equivalent transaction with me, depending on what you can give in exchange; the second is to go to Lonnis, maybe he will share his with you if he is in a good mood food."

Having said that, Sean turned his gaze back to Lonnis again, and said, "Don't say I didn't warn you, the Boulder family's envoys will take about a week to arrive, and your benefits are only It's tomorrow. If you haven't come up with something new to exchange before midnight tomorrow night, then you know the result."

Sean was very face-saving and didn't say that he would lock Lonnis in a cage, which made Lonnis feel a little rejoiced.

But soon, he became melancholy again.

One week, which means that he must find a way to get another item to trade as soon as possible, otherwise, according to what he knows about Sean, this bastard would definitely dare to hand them a cage in front of the entire diplomatic mission .

Just thinking of this made Lonnis feel very bad.

"Is there any other way?" Lonnis asked.

Listening to Lonnie's tone, it was obvious that he had given in, which surprised Rude. In his impression, Lonnis definitely belonged to that kind of hardliner. When he was in the army, he even dared to quarrel with the senior officers of the military department, and dared to directly refuse to ignore wrong orders. A fierce man who was deeply impressed would say such soft words at this moment?

As if knowing what Rude was thinking, Lonnis was silent for a while, and then said helplessly: "Sometimes, reality is very cruel."

Rude looked at Sean in horror. He really couldn't figure out what method the lord used to wear down Rude's will to such an extent. This is really an incredible thing.

"Give me your baronet." Sean said bluntly.

Lonnis frowned slightly, he didn't expect Sean to propose such a condition.

For ordinary nobles, the territory is all they have, and ceding a complete noble territory is basically equivalent to giving up the noble. In other words, although this nobleman still retains his original title, the management of the territory, etc., the object of his allegiance will no longer be the original country, but the new suzerain country. However, this is also for ordinary nobles, such as Viscount Rudd, and this method of cession must at least be a national level war.

Although the war this time is a conflict between Sean and the Boulder family, and the Boulder family has been completely defeated, the cession of the territory can only cede the territory that the Boulder family belongs to, such as the Mordegg Territory. The enclave, and the barony ruled by Langness, the Boulder family has no right to cede it. However, this territory is not the core territory of the Lonnie family, so even if it is ceded to Xiao En, he will not become a member of the Principality of Ryan.

It's just that Lonnis doesn't know exactly what Sean wants this territory for.

He has already seen that it is a strategically important area that is extremely beneficial to the Principality of Ryan, but it has no effect on the entire Kingdom of Dabion. So Lonnis' intuition told him that Sean definitely had a purpose for looking at his territory, but he had no idea what the purpose was.

Longness didn't like this very much.

This feeling of being completely out of control made him very uncomfortable.

"May I think about it?" Lonnis asked.

"Of course." Sean shrugged, his face didn't fluctuate at all, but he turned his head to look at Rude, "Next, let's talk about the issues between me and you."

"What's the problem?" Rude looked puzzled.

"I have investigated you, Ruud Michelin." Sean said with a smile, "Your family has not been a nobleman for a long time, so in the Kingdom of Darbion, you have no foundation. It can be said that your family It is all due to your hard work that you can grow up now."

"What do you want to say?" Rude fixed his eyes on Sean.

"Do you know why the war is over, but you and your men were captured by me, and my soldiers are still staying in Heidelberg?"

Rude frowned slightly, and then looked at Sean in shock: "You want to occupy my territory!?" (To be continued.)

PS: I don't know why, but after twelve o'clock in the evening, the whole person can't bear the trouble of Sandman at all. Could it be because of the lack of vitality recently?
