Start as Inherited Baroness
Chapter 87 Siege
Although the Serai slave soldiers had already held a master-changing ceremony, they were brought by Halls after all, and Simon still couldn't really believe it.
Let them cooperate with the mercenary group and guard outside the stronghold.
Afterwards, Simon arranged for Mader to count the betrothal gifts brought by Halls and put them in the storage room after they were found to be correct.
"Lord Baron, can I go see Ms. Barra." At this time, Halls requested.
"You are going to have a wedding at noon, so there is no need to meet in advance now.
A caravan passed by here a few days ago, and they brought a batch of good wine. Let's taste it. "
Simon smiled and invited.
"Wine? Okay." After hearing this, Halls didn't insist on seeing Bara because he didn't know if it was her.
He only found out that Simon had such a mother, but his appearance was not clear at all.
However, even if he looks like a sow, he still pinches his nose and admits that starting a business is not a shame.
After that, Simon took Halls to the Lord's Hall, and both sides were protected by several personal guards wearing heavy armor.
As soon as the two of them sat down and exchanged a few words, the maids brought several bottles of wine and wine utensils and filled them up for them respectively.
The two of them only met twice, so they definitely had nothing to talk about.
However, Simon also had something to say and had been asking him for advice about nobles.
Just like who is Maple Leaf Castle's relative? How many nobles and new lords are there around?
As soon as the chat box was opened, several hours passed in the blink of an eye.
Halls was already very impatient and a little suspicious. He didn't know whether Ms. Barra was really ill or Simon was just stalling for time.
However, Simon felt that this conversation was of great significance and he learned a lot of information that he had never known before.
The marriage between Maple Leaf Castle and several nobles was just a piece of fun for Maple Leaf Castle. After all, the two places were thousands of miles apart.
After this hurdle is passed, it will be difficult for the two to have any intersection.
The most important piece of information is that Marquis Val's wife is the legitimate daughter of Duke Leodo's family in the North Wind.
From this point of view, the relationship between the nobles of Beifeng and the Marquis is very deep.
"Why did Maple Leaf Castle attack us? Baron Hela was also supported by Marquis Val.
Could it be said that..." Simon thought about it and suddenly shuddered.
He had a guess, that is, Marquis Val may have acquiesced in the hunting of them by the nobles of the North Wind.
From the marquis's point of view, he helped some soldiers who died in the service to obtain the title of baron, which can make his men more loyal.
And after these descendants of the soldiers were awarded the title, it was understandable that he would not provide substantial help. How could such a big man act as a nanny for a small character?
Being able to help them get canonized is already a great kindness.
At the same time, the Marquis tacitly allowed the nobles of the North Wind to hunt them, and he could also win over and show favor to the nobles of the North Wind.
You can also use their hands to get rid of some barons who are really useless.
Freeing up the land for the barbarians from the north can better mix the sand and affect the royal territory's penetration into the West Side.
“If this is true as I guessed, I must continue to expand our troops.
Then build the castle quickly, or build a smaller one first.
With a stone fortress, you will be more confident in the face of siege. Ordinary nobles do not have the ability to siege cities. "
Simon's mind was filled with thoughts, and for a moment he forgot that he was talking to Halls.
"Baron Simon, what are you thinking about?"
Halls asked suspiciously when he saw how distracted he was.
"Oh, I was thinking about the Baron of the Green Plains. It turns out that he is also a noble son of the North Wind." Simon smiled slightly and chatted.
"It's almost noon, I'm going to see how my mother is doing.
Chunlan, serve the wine quickly! Don't neglect it!
You all should have a taste and comment on the taste of this wine. I think it’s pretty good. We’re almost a family, so you’re welcome. "
Simon stood up and said with a smile, the last sentence was addressed to the guards of Halls.
"Now that Baron Simon has said it, don't lose your interest."
After hearing the words, Hols pondered for a moment and then ordered.
In fact, people from Beifeng don't like to drink wine. They love spicy Beifong Shao.
Women in the North Wind don't drink wine.
"Yes!" the guards responded one after another.
Seeing this, Simon and Sarit walked out of the lord's hall, while Airey and other heavy infantry remained in place.
He glanced at Mader who was guarding the door, and the latter immediately left with understanding.
After a while, Winnis and Kailin arranged for the maids to bring carefully prepared mutton soup to the soldiers brought by Halls.
The soldiers in the North Wind Land were always miserable, but now at noon, their stomachs were already growling with hunger.
They naturally salivated when they saw so much mutton and the fragrant aroma.
"These are gifts given to you by Lord Baron. The wedding of Sir Halls and Lady Bara will be held in the evening."
Ma De announced something, put down the mutton soup, and led the people away.
The soldiers of Maple Leaf Castle hesitated for a while, but they all felt that today was a happy event, so they were not so vigilant.
Not long after, someone picked up the bowl and smelled it. They thought the smell was normal. After taking a sip, they started eating and drinking.
From the beginning, all the Maple Leaf Fort soldiers soon joined in.
Ma De looked at this scene calmly, a cold light gradually seeping out of his eyes.
Simon didn't go to Bara's place at all. He felt that Sir Halls was easy to deceive.
Maybe he was brave, but he didn't have much of the cunning of a noble lord.
He led his men around the camp twice, and when he was about to return to the lord's hall again, he saw that there was chaos over there.
There was a noise, and there was the sound of weapons colliding.
But soon, it stopped.
Simon walked over and glanced at the ground, only to see that all the soldiers of Maple Leaf Castle were lying flat.
Before they fell to the ground, they obviously gathered together to resist for a while.
But after a while, the drug took effect and they all fell down.
"Sir, Halls is here. They rushed out of the lord's hall before the drug took effect." At this time, Airey went over and said.
"Are there any casualties?" Simon asked.
"Sir, there are no casualties." Airey smiled.
At this time, Hilde led more than a hundred guards to control the place and surrounded it.
"Take off their armor quickly, and kill those who have not eaten bread and salt." Simon said immediately.
"Yes!" After Hilde responded, he called the soldiers to start.
Not long after, except for Halls and his four guards, all the other Maple Leaf Castle soldiers were killed.
"Sir, there are still some outside who haven't come in yet." Sarit said at this time.
"How many are there?" Simon asked.
"Dozens of soldiers, hundreds of serfs."
"Lure the soldiers of Maple Leaf Castle in and kill them all.
If you can't trick them in, mobilize the mercenary group to surround and kill them." Simon said coldly.
"Yes!" Sarit agreed and immediately went to operate.
Simon exhaled lightly, looked at Halls who was still unconscious on the ground, and glanced at the killed Maple Leaf Castle soldiers.
He sighed: "Conspiracy is so plain and simple. It's too dangerous to be a guest at someone else's house."
