Black Iron Crown

Chapter 249 Return Aid

Lord Fallane is dead...

Thousands of years later, there is a spooky legend about the sad and angry Baron Falan in this area, but in any case, such urban strange tales of the heroic Baron who are not particularly brilliant or scary are just general slang words told by the old people to their children and grandchildren.

Just like listening to the unknown Baron Fallane during his lifetime, the stories about him after his death are just small stories circulated in the countryside.

I don't know when he will be forgotten by people, or he will enter the purpose with the old people who grew up listening to his stories, and there will be no trace of existence in this world.

One day was enough for Leiner's vassals to react, and no one wanted to face thousands of enemy troops, so they led the army and all their property to Fort Petry for defense.

Fort Petry, as a territory stuck on the route of Earl Zhebo's advance, would not be ignored by the enemy anyway.

There are only two functions of the castle, one is to control, to control the residents of a territory and to declare occupation of it.

And the other one is blocking and defending. With castles in place, the enemy army must remove these nail-like strong fortresses one by one. If you don't do this, don't even think about moving forward.

After all, more than a dozen vassals had nearly 800 regular troops and dozens of knights. If Earl Zhebo really bypassed them and let them go, it would definitely be a huge threat.

No one knows when they will be hit from behind, even some harassment is a big trouble for Earl Zhebo.

All the vassals are distinguished, the territory and the residents are not important, but if you are the same as Baron Falan, then you have nothing, your life is gone, and your family is gone. What is the use of the territory?

Allowed, the lords gave up a large area of ​​territory and a dozen castles as a strategic depth, hoping to make the enemy suspicious for a while.

Even if the enemy troops reached Petry Fort, the nearly 800-man defenders would probably be able to hold out for a while.

At the same time, it was getting dark when Earl Zhebo entered Fort Faline, and the small castle was already in chaos. The soldiers took off their pants and moved wantonly on them regardless of the maids' howling.

Some soldiers held long swords in their hands and began to search for the property of the soldiers who fell on the ground. Many severed heads were thrown on the ground with their eyes wide open and they were kicked like balls.

Thinking that he was already used to it, ignoring all this, this wave of earls came to the lord's hall.

The blood was not thirsty, it was still flowing on the ground, and the strong smell of blood rushed into his nostrils, and the scene in front of him made him sigh in his heart.

Blood spread to the expensive moccasin boots he was wearing, and he walked slowly to the body of Baron Fallane. The soldiers under his command did not restrain him, but they did not destroy him either.

Earl Tewarin walked into the hall with him. He who did not participate in the battle was not eligible to share the spoils.

But wandering around beside Earl Zhebo was nothing in his capacity.

"He resisted to the end..." A knight beside Earl Zhebo said to him,

He had participated in the battle in the hall, and he also told him about Baron Farlane's actions.

After hearing this, Earl Twarin squatted down and gently closed Baron Fallane's still wide eyes, checked the wound on his body again, and couldn't help admiring: "This is a real nobleman with honor and loyalty! "

Looking at the Baron Farlane who was martyred for loyalty, Earl Twarin couldn't help standing up and sighing. Although the two sides were in opposing camps, the nobles always appreciated such an approach.

Earl Zhebo also nodded silently. Although the positions of the two sides are different, he is also very similar to the other side's approach.

"Bury him as a saint!" Earl Zhebo habitually brushed off the bearskin cloak he was wearing and said, "The epitaph reads: Your Excellency the baron who gave his life for loyalty and glory!"

After a pause, he said again: "Bury these knights with him, and the epitaph reads: "A group of noble and brave knights who fought and died after following the lord for loyalty! "

Earl Zhebo admired them very much. Falienburg really fought until the last soldier. More than a hundred people were killed in battle, and no one survived or even was captured...

not a single one!

In this industrial siege battle, Earl Zhebo paid a total of 450 people, including 25 knights. They are worthy of anyone and deserve the word "glory".

After cleaning up the blood here, Earl Zhebo, Earl Twarin and their soldiers spent the night in Fort Faline, and they went to the next goal early the next morning.

Earl Zhebo's heart sank a little. A Falien Castle cost him so much and delayed him for two full days. There are still more than a dozen castles to be conquered...

At the same time, he did not find the children of these noble families among the remains. Obviously, they all fled before his arrival.

He guessed right, the children not only fled, but also ran very fast, and Bantis had already led two followers to the range of Fort Gold.

His purpose is to find Reiner as soon as possible and report to him what happened in Nandu.

At this time, Leiner was very comfortable. He had exchanged an intermediate barracks from the system as early as the day of victory.

Products with a total of 4,000 points of merit are naturally top-notch good things, and the annual output of 240 soldiers is still very strong.

Well, speaking of it, Leiner is still a little dissatisfied. There are only 240 soldiers in a whole year, and even if it is ten years, he only has 2,400 soldiers.

As long as there is no loss at all, it is impossible for Reiner to have no big battles during this period. In this way, Reiner can have a thousand soldiers in ten years, which is considered a high profile.

However, thinking about the strong combat power of the system's arms, Reiner was relieved. A thousand soldiers like this are not a small amount of combat power.

What's more, the system has made it clear before that it cannot completely rely on the system's arms to fight, and a large number of local residents must be converted into fighters.

In the early morning of the next day, the soldiers did not get up early, and they came out of their tents at nine o'clock. This was the holiday that Leiner gave them yesterday.

After the sun had risen high, the whole camp returned to its usual hustle and bustle.

This atmosphere lasted until noon, and ended under the gallop of three fast horses.

"What did you say? Earl Zhebo has led the army to sneak attack on Fort Faline?" Reiner said with a look of disbelief, full of shock.

"Yes, Lord Earl, three days ago, Earl Zhebo led the army to besiege Faline Castle. My father sent us out, but why did he stay in the castle to resist the attack of Earl Zhebo to delay the time!" Banti His face was full of pain, and there were faint tears in the corners of his eyes.
