"The wealth that Carlos leads will help us solve the problem, but you need a more loyal and reassuring subject to control everything for you!"
Seeing that the Earl of Blue Mountain seemed to be moved, Richard immediately made persistent efforts.
"You mean... reseal?"
The Earl of Blue Mountain asked hesitantly.
In fact, Richard hoped that the Earl of Blue Mountain could directly hang William to death and confiscate everything he had, but he also knew that this was not realistic, so he could only say: "During this battle, Sir William also made great achievements. Why not give him a bigger fief?"
"Presumably even Sir William will not have any objection to your decision, and he is very grateful for it."
In Richard's opinion, if Sir William can be promoted to baron, he should be grateful to Dade for donating all the secret recipes and factories. As for Carlos, he is naturally the only more suitable lord.
That pig of Cisse, do you think no one knows about his little thoughts
If Wu Ming were here, he would definitely be laughing.
After all, although these nobles coveted his territory very much, they knew nothing about management, and they were so confident, as if there was no problem after taking over.
I really don't know where this self-confidence comes from.
Perhaps, they thought that as long as they mastered the skill of tax collection, Carlos Collins would bring them endless profits like a hen laying golden eggs.
…
Woohoo!
The trumpets sounded.
Wu Ming led hundreds of cavalry and galloped on the battlefield. The soldiers behind cheered loudly and followed the cavalry to charge with excitement.
Days of war have passed.
After spending a little thought and coupled with the deterrence of force, he had already subdued his cavalry and won every battle.
However, Viscount Garcia on the opposite side was not mediocre either. Although he was forced to retreat again and again, the phalanx of the legion was extremely stable, and there was no chance of breaking it.
The whole situation came to a stalemate, but anyone with a discerning eye can see that Viscount Garcia has fallen into an absolute disadvantage. If there is no accident, failure is only a matter of time.
when!
The knight's spear was covered with blood, Wu Ming pinched his thigh, and the horse under his seat almost turned into a whirlwind, forming a straight black line.
puff!
The spear pierced through a knight with an unbelievable face on the opposite side.
Whoosh!
After killing this enemy, a rain of arrows came from the opposite side. Ever since they showed their unparalleled bravery, the cavalrymen on the opposite side were already afraid of fighting Wu Ming again, and they would stick to the phalanx every time. Just use bow and arrow to push back.
"Is this all you can do?"
Wu Ming threw down his spear and drew out his Dragon Heart sword, a light blue light flashed, and most of the arrows fell on the ground.
He roared, showing peerless force, but he didn't intend to die for the Earl of Blue Mountain, and retreated slowly after a while.
Woohoo!
A low-pitched horn sounded, bringing the order to withdraw troops.
"Sir William!"
"William!"
"William!"
…
Many soldiers roared excitedly, and the cavalry under Wu Ming's command were all proud.
"Tsk tsk... another knight!"
Baron Terry greeted him, looked at the severed head of Wu Ming, with a look of amazement on his face: "This is the thirteenth, right? In addition to calling you a commoner swordsman, the enemy should probably add The nickname of a knight killer."
He lowered his voice: "Now we have gained an advantage and forced Viscount Garcia's army into a desperate situation. As long as we persist for another two or three days, we will surely win!"
Wu Ming handed over the reins to Ava, got off the horse, and asked the attendant to take off his scarred armor covered with flesh and blood: "You seem a little hesitant?"
"That's right... Maybe the Earl is right, the army family in the highlands also has constraints, let alone break through the defense of Eagle Fort!"
Baron Terry put on a relaxed expression: "The war will soon end, and we are on the victor's side!"
He looked elated, and he was a little elated.
It seems that the victories these days are also a kind of catharsis for him, which greatly relieves the humiliation of being captured last time.
"Even Baron Terry is like this, not to mention other high-level officials in the barracks..."
Wu Ming went to the earl's banquet with Terry, but his heart became clearer.
Along the way, he saw more and more laughter, and the military merchants brought a lot of alcohol, as well as many warblers with heavy makeup.
They openly lived in the barracks, chatted, laughed, and flirted with the soldiers, and those nobles even took the lead in breaking military discipline.
"Have you been dazzled by a series of victories?"
Wu Ming took a deep breath.
From the surrounding atmosphere, he smelled the breath of death.
"very close..."
Although the rules of the universe are different, the trace of true spirit brought him only extraordinary perception, but after awakening the power of all people, Wu Ming has developed more abilities and seen more things.
At this moment, he suddenly felt a great danger coming.
With this warning, he naturally would not let his subordinates slack off, and immediately ordered Jack to rectify his 500 soldiers, and asked Ava to drive away all the peddlers and wandering warblers in the cavalry battalion.
These two forces under his command were originally the places with the best military discipline in the barracks, coupled with the prestige he had barely built up in the cavalry barracks, they were enough to suppress the soldiers and carry out the order.
It's just that other places in the barracks are powerless.
…
Inside the coach's tent.
The raging flames were burning, roast suckling pig, roast goose, fried potatoes, fish pancakes... the aroma of many delicacies lingered, red wine and beer were carried to the center of the venue continuously, bands sang and danced, and many aristocrats danced wildly, with their arms in their arms. Oriole's shoulders, wantonly having fun.
When Wu Ming came in, he saw such a scene. Obviously, in order to celebrate today's victory, the Earl decided to have a carnival.
"Haha... look! Our warrior, the commoner sword master, has arrived!"
The Earl of Blue Mountain blushed and smelled of alcohol when he spoke: "Let's cheer for the heroes!"
"cheers!"
Many wine glasses were lifted into the air together, hops and red wine splashed everywhere.
"My lord, you seem to have forgotten something?"
Beside the Earl of Blue Mountain, Lord Richard, who looked feminine and extremely beautiful, reminded.
"Yes, William Wallace!"
The Earl of Blue Mountain announced loudly: "You have beheaded more than ten enemy knights. You are famous for your bravery and feats. I will give you a larger fief and make you a baron!"
The scene was silent for a moment, and many nobles stopped having fun, obviously digesting the news.
William Wallace will become a baron after the war, which is already the consensus of everyone, after all, his achievements are obvious to all.
But being so impatient, it was a bit unlike the earl's style. Looking at the sparkling eyes of the other party, it was obvious that he was not really drunk.
"Give a bigger fief?"
Next to him, Baron Terry's face was ashen, and he immediately understood the Lord Earl of Blue Mountain's plan: "Transfer? Use a piece of the baronial collar in exchange for the Carlos collar?"
Obviously, for any knight, doing so would be a big profit, except for Sir William!
According to the rumors of Fengying Plain, his territory was already filled with mountains of gold and silver.
However, even knowing that there is a conspiracy, it is difficult to refuse.
Baron Terry's eyes locked on Lord Richard at once. Obviously, the Earl of Blue Mountain would do this, and it was most likely that he was instigated by this Lord.
"What are we waiting for? Cheers to the new Baron?"
Richard laughed softly.
He looked proudly at Wu Ming and Terry below, not afraid of the plan being discovered at all.
In any case, the Earl of Blue Mountain is the lord of these two people after all, and being promoted to a hereditary baron and bestowing a territory is a great grace for any knight.
'With the glory of a nobleman, if you are still not satisfied, you can use the majesty of the lord to directly kill William Knight! '
There was a dangerous light in Richard's long and narrow eyes, and for a while he expected William to resist.
"Thank you for your kindness, my lord!"
But to his surprise, Wu Ming behaved very calmly, not surprised by favor or humiliation.
"very good!"
Seeing William's obedience, the Earl of Blue Mountain finally let go of one thing, and immediately felt a little guilty.
But soon, thinking of the upcoming harvest and the steady stream of wealth, he immediately snuffed out that bit of guilt and coughed: "In order to commend the great achievements made by Baron William, I will also sacrifice a daughter marry him!"
"Oh no!"
At this moment, a nobleman with a face as solemn as water came in and said loudly.
"what are you saying?"
The Earl of Lanshan looked at the nobleman with doubts on his face: "We are doing very well, and we can't be better. Don't you think Baron William is not worthy of such an honor? Your Excellency Viscount Barle?"
Among the Blue Tiger Allied Forces this time, the Earl of Blue Mountain was naturally the commander in chief, and then it was the turn of the Lord Viscount Barle.
In fact, even the blue-blood alliance in the entire Fengying Plain is composed of the two of them, plus another Viscount, as the core, and they are considered the strongest blue-blood three nobles.
"Let's postpone the celebration. In fact, we don't have much time!"
Viscount Barle's face was serious, holding up a letter: "According to the latest news I got, the warrior family in the highlands has sent their knights to attack Wind Howl City!"
Snapped!
These words are like thunder.
The tent was solemn and solemn at first, and then someone's wine glass fell to the ground, making a crisp sound.
Richard's face turned pale, and he looked at the Earl of Blue Mountain.
At this time, the Lord Earl was quite graceful. He laughed loudly and asked, "Barr, did you drink too much rum? How could the Highland Knights attack Wind Howling City? Behind us, there is the Viscount Eagle Castle." Guard with his loyal knight!"
