Earl Connor rode on his horse and finally spoke: "Collison, shut up.

This time we are helping the Northern Duchy. If you don't want to be shot by them, you'd better keep your mouth shut."

Collison's nonsense stopped abruptly and looked at the earl in disbelief.

Except for this young master who wanted to suppress his brother, everyone present knew their position.

To put it bluntly, what price did the Bruno family offer, and what price did the Northern Duchy offer?

Land?

The old-fashioned feudal nobles are no longer popular, and the new capitalist nobles have already taken shape.

The money everyone earns from doing business with the earl is equivalent to the income of the fiefdom for ten or twenty years in one year.

After a few years, these knights have already earned back all the taxes for the next life.

Not to mention that the army of the Northern Duchy came over, even if the army of the Northern Duchy was defeated, they would find a way to help the other side.

In fact, Collison may not be so stupid as to not see the situation clearly, but jealousy has affected his judgment.

At that moment, he did not continue to talk to him.

After all, this is the Earl's family affair.

Earl Connor did not explain any more, but took out his pocket watch to check the time.

"It's time to set off."

According to the intelligence he received, a supply team will soon pass by his territory.

Because Earl Connor's previous cooperation has regained the trust of the royal family, the transport team deliberately stayed close to his family's territory in case someone could ask for help in case of an accident.

But this time, the protector became a looter.

Earl Connor was very decisive. Since he had chosen to stand on the side, he had to stand more thoroughly. Fence-sitters will not have a good end.

He did not dare to take the risk to express his position before, because the royal army was right next to him.

Now... it's just right.

In the past few days, with the chaos of the Fourth Division of the Guards Infantry, the logistics supply of the entire royal army has been in a mess.

The general who stayed behind asked Duke Fernandez for help while increasing the protection of the transport team.

The transport line cannot be broken, otherwise the army on the front line will really collapse.

Naturally, the route of the Connor family seems safer.

After all, a fiefdom earl must have some strength to make people feel at ease.

The transport team was nervous all the way until they were close to relax a little.

The leading officer did not force control, after all, people are not machines, and they will collapse if they are always tense.

During the break, the leading officer personally looked around with a telescope from a high place.

The adjutant saw his worries and comforted him: "Earl Connor is a veteran on the battlefield. If the enemy army really touches the vicinity, he can't hide it."

Earl Connor knew the route and time of the transport team. If there was any danger, he would definitely send someone to remind him.

The leading officer heard that this was the truth.

The Connor family also provided almost a regiment of private troops to the kingdom, and their loyalty was guaranteed.

"If I had known that the situation would deteriorate, I should have recruited fewer noble private troops." The leading officer thought silently.

Of course, this was the order of Duke Fernandez, and he didn't dare to say it out loud.

As they were walking, the adjutant suddenly glanced into the distance, and then his pupils dilated, and he was stunned.

The leading officer noticed something was wrong, and just turned halfway, he heard the adjutant's frightened voice: "There are enemies, there are enemies, run."

The transport team was not a front-line army, so its combat effectiveness was naturally more touching, not to mention that there were more people on the opposite side.

"Quickly send someone to ask for help from Earl Connor." As soon as the leading officer finished speaking, he saw the flag of the Connor family fluttering in the wind.

He held back his words and his face flushed.

In this situation, how could they not know that the Connor family had rebelled.

"I have heard that the Connor family has property in the Northern Principality for a long time, and it turns out to be true."

There was nothing much to say next. As soon as the infantry artillery exploded and fired a few rounds of gunfire, the transport team dispersed.

In fact, this kind of battle is not difficult, and what is more important is to express your attitude.

From then on, the Connor family really couldn't turn back.

Collison has accepted the reality. After all, he has received aristocratic elite education since he was a child.

His father has decided to surrender to the Northern Principality, so he can only seize the opportunity to make a career and overwhelm his younger brother.

Instead of complaining about himself or even doing something to seek death.

So he was very active, taking the initiative to count the spoils and hunt down deserters.

Earl Connor rarely smiled, and it was unknown whether he was happy to see his son's performance or finally stopped pretending to be a grandson.

But at this moment, the ground suddenly began to tremble.

Those new infantrymen had not yet reacted, and some knights who had fought with Earl Connor for many years suddenly changed their faces.

Some people even quickly lay on the ground and listened carefully.

"There are cavalry, at least more than two thousand cavalry, and they are coming soon."

They have seen too many unique movements of cavalry.

The most impressive ones are the knights of the North.

They just suffered a loss a few years ago, and they still remember it vividly.

Otherwise, why do you say they stand in line so straightforwardly?

Wealth is only part of the reason, and the knives of the Northern Knights are another part of the reason.

"Is the royal family fishing?"

Many people couldn't help but think of this possibility. Duke Fernandez is not a pushover, and it is very likely that he made such an arrangement.

Even Earl Connor couldn't help but start to speculate. If he was really calculated, it would be difficult to get away unscathed today.

It didn't take them long to get nervous, as the cavalry in the distance had already appeared in their field of vision.

The two-headed dragon flag held high made them subconsciously hold their breath and then quickly let out a sigh of relief.

It was only then that they remembered that they were no longer enemies and there was no need to be afraid.

A knight wiped the cold sweat from his forehead: "You scared me. Now we are all on our own. I thought the Northern Knights were coming again."

Even though guns and cannons began to run rampant, in the eyes of the older generation of knights, the most powerful army was still the Northern Knights.

Earl Connor also smiled. Fortunately, he had lined up in advance, otherwise he would have cried now.

But what was the situation with the cavalry that appeared here?

He was not very clear about the troop movements of the Northern Principality, so he had no idea for a while.

In just a short while, the cavalry had dispersed around the transport team, vaguely surrounding everyone in the middle.

The atmosphere was a little tense.

However, Earl Connor and some old knights began to breathe heavily, and their eyes were attracted by a flag bearer.

That was... the Duke's private flag.

Unlike the two-headed dragon flag used by the army, only one person dared to use this flag.

Earl Connor couldn't help but murmur: "Duke of the North, why is he at the front line?"
