Black Iron Crown

Chapter 245 The Vassal in Desperation

In the end, the Klades were completely defeated by the army led by Leiner. Although he wanted to let the soldiers maximize the results of the battle, considering that their physical strength had been exhausted, he still issued an order to regroup .

"This is really a great victory!"

"This is undoubtedly a great honor that the Earl has brought to me!" Reiner's vassals gathered around him after receiving the order from Reiner Qiong Kou Mochai. Sing praises.

Leiner looked at these vassals who kept praising him, took off his helmet and said with a smile: "Haha, without the support of you and my vassals, it would be difficult for me to achieve such a huge victory. For this reason, I will share half of the spoils of this battle with you!"

Everyone laughed when they heard Reiner's words, and one by one began to praise Reiner's generosity.

In fact, they didn't mean what they said at all. Where can they get any valuable spoils from the Klade people, at most they are some furs and the like.

It may be very valuable to put it in other places, but for some lords close to the forest, they can have as many animal skins as they want, and for the northern lords who have been blocked and cannot have commercial communication with the empire However, animal skins can only be used as a tool for warming.

It can't be used as a universal currency that can be exchanged for various resources, but in order to curry favor with Reiner, the lords also expressed emotion to Reiner against their will.

Reiner knew what they were thinking, and looked at the lords with a smile, with a subtle expression on his face, he waved his hands and said: "My vassals, don't say that, I know that animal skins are not good for you. It’s too valuable, but what I want is for you to hoard all these animal skins. In the not-too-distant future, I will defeat Earl Zhebo and completely accept his territory, and we will also open up the connection with the empire. By then Your animal skins are worth a fortune!"

Reiner smiled and patted the shoulder of Baron Azak who was closest to him, expressing the close relationship between the two parties.

Although Baron Azak is much older than himself, after all, Leiner is still his vassal, such an action will not offend Baron Azak, but instead shows the close relationship between the two parties.

Baron Azak made a humble look to Reiner, and then looked at the other vassals of Reiner and said loudly: "Sooner or later, under the leadership of the Earl, we will defeat the despicable betrayer Earl Zhebo and the betrayed Earl. Your lords, these animal skins will be our wealth in the future, the Earl is so generous to share the spoils with us!"

"yes!"

"Your Earl is so generous!"

The vassals agreed with Baron Azak's words, and kept flattering Rainer.

Rainer has always had a very good impression of Baron Azak, and he dares to swear that it is definitely not because he slept with his wife.

Except for seeing the irritable Baron Azak for the first time, no matter what it is, he is the first to support him loyally, so it is said that Reiner is not a confidant to Baron Azak, but it is always his. Among the vassals he trusted the most.

Reiner nodded with a smile, raised his eyebrows and said: "This is indeed a huge victory! Eight thousand Klades were completely defeated by us! On such a happy day, we should revel here for a few days!"

After a burst of cheers, Fengsheng's dinner began in the camp that had been built before.

Although the groans of some wounded soldiers dampened the cheerful atmosphere, the overall atmosphere was still very pleasant.

Countless soldiers sang joyous songs and ate delicious food, celebrating this glorious victory in the most primitive way. The lights in the entire camp were brightly lit and kept on in the middle of the night. It was not until the early morning that these soldiers dropped their jobs and fell asleep.

In stark contrast to the all-night carnival here is Falienburg, which has been completely surrounded by Earl Zhebo. Six thousand regular troops have surrounded this small castle to a tight extent. No one should expect to be able to run out.

Standing on the towering watchtower in the castle, Baron Fallane led the knights loyal to him, looking solemnly at the densely packed enemy army below.

Suddenly, Baron Fallane punched hard on the battlements of the towering arrow tower of Falline Castle, his eyes were bloodshot, and he said to the knights beside him in a decisive tone: " Everyone, our family members and heirs have all been sent away..."

He pursed his lips, took a deep breath and said: "Then, now is the time for us to fulfill our original promise. I swore an oath of eternal loyalty to Earl Rainer, and you swore an oath of eternal loyalty to Earl Rainer." My oath, and now, I will be loyal to my lord!"

Baron Farlane looked helpless when he said these words, with a wry smile on the corner of his lips, and the same was true of his knights, but their actions were very resolute.

Without pulling out the long swords around their waists, all of them knelt down in front of Baron Fallane, propped the long swords on the floor and said: "It is our honor to be loyal to the lord. Since the blood of the family is preserved, we must I will follow my lord to the underworld!"

"Very good!" Baron Falan moved his neck, drew out the long sword at his waist and slashed at the pillar fiercely, saying viciously, "We are here today, we will live and die together!!"

"With the total death!"

At this time, Baron Farlane has put life and death aside. From all aspects, the issue of the ownership of the northern border has gradually shown its results. Before that, Earl Zhebo's side was led by Reiner Defeated by the Allied Forces, and now Leiner has obtained the title of earl and the transfer of the lord's title. He believes that it is not far from defeating Earl Zhebo.

It's just that my luck is really not very good, and I encountered such a thing when I was about to get the fruits of victory.

With a wry smile, he glanced at the knights who were kneeling on the ground willing to be with him for eternal life. His eyes gradually became moist. If he could, he didn't want to die, and he didn't want to struggle to support himself in such a situation.

If it was possible, if this was just an ordinary territorial war, he would have surrendered with a white flag, and the big deal would be to pay the ransom.

But this is a life-and-death war, and nobles will throw away the last bit of decency in each other for the sole purpose of killing each other.

For the sake of his family, he had no choice. If he wanted to occupy a place among Leiner's vassals in the future, he had to do so.

"Very good, you are all good!" Baron Farlane smiled wryly.

He looked down the castle, and saw two lords in luxurious armor surrounded by a large number of knights coming not far below the castle.

These two people are Earl Zhebo and Earl Tewarin, and they are pointing and observing the situation of the castle in front of them.
