Warlord: King of All Clans

As soon as these words were spoken, the whole audience fell silent.

The fight for the inheritance rights of earls in every generation was a bloody battle, even more intense than an open war. How many of those who rashly got involved could have a good ending?

Everyone can see how poor the Miswich family of the Southwestern Banner, the previous generation of Isenbol, has become.

At this time, Flynn Adonis, the head of the Adonis family, one of the five major flags in Isenbor, stood up and said loudly: "My fellow comrades, relatives and friends! We are all local big families in Isenbor, and we are all well-known figures. We all know how we have been through these years."

"We, the people of Isembol, have worshipped the Earl's House of Frovald for generations. We go to war whenever there is a battle. Our loyalty is evident, but how many of us have ever been taken seriously by the Earl?"

"In the city of Frowald, we are the peasants in the countryside, the farmers who supply them with food!"

"The grain of Isenbor feeds half of the population of the Count of Fruilov. How much have you been exploited? But what have we gained?"

"This time, Isenbol has a chance to become the Earl's main city. Don't you have any ideas?"

Following Flynn Adonis' words, many people were moved. Some young corner flags didn't think much of it, but the older corner flags agreed deeply with the words of the opponent's flag knight Flynn.

The current situation in the North is similar to that of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. In order to keep up with the times, the earldoms have been strengthening centralization.

Isenpol has always been the agricultural base of Frowald. The cultivated land area of ​​the plain along the Anzeno River east of Isenpol accounts for one-third of the entire earldom.

Because of this, the Earl's Mansion was afraid that the local forces here would rebel, and the control over Isenbol was relatively strict. In the past hundred years, no square banner had more than five knight territories.

The local families of Isenbol had to pay a large amount of grain taxes every year, and were forced to split up every generation. They were already very dissatisfied, and Flynn's words were very inflammatory to them.

As the city's central flag of Isenbol, the Adonis family has been the largest local force in Isenbol for decades, with countless allies and relatives under its command. With his leadership, the effect produced is more obvious than that of Tariq Fruilov.

Tariq also interrupted at the right time to assure, "I have been running Isenbor for many years and have already developed feelings for this place. If I become a count one day, Isenbor will be the new count's main city! You all will also be the main city nobles of the Earldom of Freilov!"

At this time, a discordant voice was heard.

Rigolav, the head of the Petukhov family, stood up and asked, "Sir Tariq, you just said that the orc war has just ended and Furuilov is in turmoil. It is time for everyone to unite and protect their homeland. If we fight for power and profit at this time, can Furuilov's hundreds of years of foundation be preserved?"

"The Duke of the North has announced to the world that Sir Herman Frylov has succeeded to the Earl's throne. If you serve another master, it would be a rebellion. Think carefully!"

Rigolav's tone became increasingly harsh. "You are only thinking about short-term interests, but have you ever thought that our Earldom of Fruilov is now the weakest in history? Talhanberk in the west, Count Beboos in the east, and Count Gustav in the south, which one of them is not eyeing this piece of fat meat of ours?"

"Do you believe that if the news gets out this month, the army will arrive next month?"

"Isenpol hasn't experienced war for decades. Don't you think we've been at ease for too long?"

As he spoke, many corner flags lowered their heads.

Many of them looked down on the traditional and old-fashioned Petukhov family. This Fangqi family, hiding in the remote mountains of the southwest, was austere and conservative. It had always been unknown and was not very harmonious with the mainstream circle of Isenbol.

But Rigolav's words woke him up.

Most of the corner flags are country rich men and bandit leaders, who are indeed only concerned with immediate benefits, but just because they themselves cannot think of it does not mean they cannot understand it.

The situation in Isenbol was exactly as Rigolav had described.

Fruilov was already half-crippled and couldn't even form a proper legion.

If there is still internal fighting at this time, once the earl's army outside attacks, the hundreds of years of foundation of the Frelov family will be gone.

Isenpol, who is being targeted by three major foreign enemies, now has reinforcements from two cities, which prevents them from acting rashly.

But if they rebel and become independent, who can stop them with a mere town of 20,000 people?

If it was just a matter of changing the lord, these knights might not have any objections, but the problem was that as the defeated party, the small knight lords who were scattered like monkeys when the tree fell had fallen would have no chance of defending their own fiefdoms.

By then, the ancestral land that has been based for a hundred years will be usurped by outsiders.

Leo was the first to applaud, "Rigolav is right!"

Seeing that the corner flags, who had been incited, had calmed down, Tarik Frylov's eyes were full of viciousness. He laughed in anger and said, "Well, well, Rigolav, you are worthy of being a loyal subject of my family. Your loyalty is evident."

He looked around and said loudly, "Don't worry, everyone. Knight Rigolav's words make sense, but they are inappropriate. My second brother Victor has sent me a message that we can form an alliance at any time. We are not fighting alone.

"Beboos in the east and Gustav in the south are both fighting fiercely in the southern border and have no time to pay attention to the northwest."

"Talhanbek in the west has been friends with Furelov for generations. I have already sent a letter and received a reply. If Isenpol encounters an external enemy, Talhanbek will immediately send troops to help!"

His words made Rigolav and Leo look at each other in bewilderment.

No, are you thinking you’re not dying fast enough?

Beyond the Bak Pass in the west is the western border of the empire. The Bak Pass has always been occupied by Burktarhan of the western border. Because he and the previous Count Freilov were sworn brothers and relatives by marriage, he had not invaded the northern border for decades.

But the Burke in the West is even more brutal than the Earl in the North. For the people in the North, looting is just a hobby, but for the people in the West, every person is a horse thief, and robbing is their main business!

Now that the former Count Fruilov has died in battle and his three sons are fighting among themselves, why are you sending the news over at this time? Are you afraid that they are out of touch and won't send troops fast enough?

Because Petukhov and the river bend are both located west of Isenpol, both of them were worried for a while and ignored Tariq's loud encouragement.

The neutral flag knights Arnold Isenkulov and Rudolf Hobert looked solemn, and their eyes changed when they looked at Tariq, wishing they could kill the traitor with their own hands.

The horse thieves from the western border have not crossed Isenbor for decades, but the older generation still remembers it vividly.

But some young corner flag players do not have this knowledge and thinking. Ignorance gives them courage and they are eager to make moves.

In their opinion, if they had the support of a Western Burke and the cooperation of two descendants of Foreloff, they could give it a try.

Frelov's eldest son occupied an empty city and was not as strong as his two younger brothers.

Tariq tried to incite, but because except for Adonis, the four square flag families did not make a clear statement, the remaining corner flags also remained silent.
