After confirming the last item, Kane led the pursuit team and headed towards the town ahead.
A large number of troops walked on the road, giving the soldiers defending the city a great sense of oppression.
Earlier, they had learned that a group of enemy troops were coming to occupy the front city wall, and the situation was in a precarious situation.
But after Master Manvila led many teams to support them, their hanging hearts were relieved. In the eyes of these guarding soldiers, there would be no defeat in the battle with Manvira around.
After several months of continuous victory reports of Manvila's army on the front line, they have already had blind confidence in Manvila and his army.
Only now, looking at the huge unfamiliar team in front of them, they also know the news that their own strength has been defeated.
Instinctively, a soldier holding a bow and arrow tightened the bow in his hand, and was about to shoot, but was stopped by the squad leader at the side.
Having experienced many wars, he understood that the group of opposing soldiers in front of him didn't seem to hold much malice towards them.
The squad leader decided to wait and see. The opponent has such a huge force, and he knows how to deal with them. Therefore, if there is a real fight, no matter what choice he makes, he will only die here.
Why not, let's see how the other party's attitude is. This may be a glimmer of life for myself and the others as well as the residents of the small town.
After the army from the [Lake Eyre Alliance] approached below, the opponent did not show any aggressive behavior as the team leader expected.
I saw that a very young noble man walked out of the allied army. His smile was like a warm sun, so that the team leader and others couldn't show any hostility.
"Your Majesty, Kane Gerrard is the Baron Ridgett, hereby come here to convey something to you." The noble man below said.
Upon hearing this, the squad leader hurriedly replied: "My lord, Knowles Debon, the captain of the Lake Eamon Guards, what do you want to tell us?"
The other party's reply quickly reached several people's ears: "Well, Nodus, I want to tell you a piece of news. The Manvila faction you are loyal to has disintegrated at this moment today. The soldiers on the rear wall They have all surrendered, and I hope you can open the city gate and let us wait for the army to enter."
"What!?" Even though it was expected, the captain and the soldiers beside him were still extremely shocked when they heard the news.
They have been loyal to the lord force for many years, even their ancestors, and they are about to change today.
Kane was not surprised by the other party's behavior at all. He continued to persuade: "Nodes, you must have known this fact after seeing me and the allied forces, right? I hope you can open the city gate, so as to avoid accidents. A necessary firefight, you say?"
The other party's seemingly persuasive words were actually like a sharp arrow shot into the chest of the squad leader Nords.
He was startled suddenly, understood the meaning of the words, and immediately said: "I understand, Lord Baron, I will open the door for you."
With that said, Nodus turned around and ordered to the soldiers beside him, "Go and open the city gate."
"But, captain, in this case, the residents of the town." Some soldiers said unwillingly.
Nords didn't understand what he meant, he wanted to live up to the expectations of the residents of the town, and let the enemy troops enter the town so casually.
However, when Nords looked around, he smiled wryly just now, his side is only a team of ten people, how can it be the opponent of the other party.
"Let's go, the leader doesn't look like a vicious person, and he shouldn't attack the residents." Nords said helplessly.
The soldiers also lowered their heads: "I understand, Captain."
"Bang Dang!!!"
The old city gate was opened by the soldiers together, and the Allied troops walked into it.
The leader was still the handsome nobleman. The soldiers did not dare to look into each other's eyes, and lowered their heads to look at the ground.
As the team leader, Nords also led the remaining soldiers down, came to the front of the Allied army, knelt down on one knee, and waited for the other party to speak.
"Meet you again, Nords." The young baron said.
"Yes, we meet again, Lord Baron." Nords replied kindly.
"tread."
The opponent stepped down from the mount and came to Nodus.
"Next, I will ask you some things, and you must answer truthfully, do you understand?"
Obviously he was talking to Nodus with that warm smile, but he could hear a slight chill from the other party's mouth.
"Of course, my lord, as long as I can answer it."
"Well, first of all, during your stay here, have you ever seen a fast horse passing by?"
Nodus thought about it for a while, and replied truthfully: "Since Manvila led his army through here, no one has passed through this town."
"Well, the next question is, have you ever seen anyone in the surrounding woods during your duty?"
"No, my lord, there was no movement here until the arrival of your army."
"Very well, you and your team can get up."
"Yes, thank you, my lord."
With Kane's order, Nodus and others stopped kneeling and stood up.
Mustering up the courage in his heart, Nords asked Kane: "My lord, are you and your party looking for someone?"
Unexpectedly, when these words were spoken, not only Kane, but even the nobles beside him turned to watch Nords' behavior.
Kane patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Some things, it's better not to ask too much."
Swallowing, Nodus nodded abruptly.
Considering the identity of the other party, Kane asked him again: "Where is your consul here?"
"Are you talking about Mayor McRae? His words should be in the most central building."
Nords pointed to the tallest building in the center of the town.
"I see, can you and your team members lead the way for us?" Kane asked with a smile.
"Of course it is possible, Lord Baron, please follow us this way."
With that said, Nords led his team members first, and led the huge army to the place where the mayor was at the front.
As a result, a very strange scene appeared in the eyes of the residents of the small town. The guards of their own territory were in front of them, and an unfamiliar army was behind them. However, judging from the relationship between the two sides, this army seemed to have no malice towards them.
Soon, Nodus' team led the Allies to the mayor's building.
