Black Iron Crown

Chapter 403 Ruthless Taunt

When she said these words, everyone present was shocked.

However, the moment the helmet was taken off, it caused a huge shock like dropping a bomb in the crowd.

"He...she is a woman?"

"This this……"

"Sir Farrant is a woman?"

Everyone stared at Farrant's fair face in stunned amazement, almost speechless in shock.

Even Lena was stunned.

"I... I was forced to this point by a woman?"

He stared at Farrant's face in disbelief.

It's not that he discriminates against women, it's just that this era is different.

In this era, even aristocratic and false women were mostly responsible for housework, helping their husbands take care of things in the territory, and teaching the children of the vassals.

It's not empty words that war makes women go

And Frant not only appeared on the battlefield, but also saw through his plan and cost him a huge loss, a feeling of astonishment and humiliation could not help but arise spontaneously.

Before, when Frante didn't reveal his identity, Reiner only thought that this man had a good vision, and he was indeed a brave nobleman.

But when she revealed her gender, a strange feeling filled his mind, no matter how he thought about it, he felt uncomfortable.

However, I have to say that Farrant proposed this method very well.

Originally, Fort Creek was already regarded as fat among the rebels, and everyone coveted it under the instigation of Earl Lorrance.

And once Farland and the royal family are married, if the rebels want to rebel again, they will face the full force of Fort Creek to stop them.

After all, under the leadership of Earl Lorrance, Fort Creek was regarded as fat by a group of lords who were hostile to Farland and wanted to carve it up.

After the marriage, the royal side became their backer instead.

If it does happen,

If the rebels still want to carve up Fort Creek, the first thing to stop is the royal family.

Because by that time, the Earl of Creek's family had become a nail driven by the royal family in the fight against the rebels.

You want to annex Fort Creek?

What do you want to do? Want to rebel again?

Although the suppression of the rebel army was severely weakened at this time, the strength retained by the royal family was still not comparable to that of the lords in the south. Once they got rid of the dilemma of fighting on two fronts, the power of the royal family would become unparalleled.

The empire has only been unified for 20 years, but they still remember how the Ridka Kingdom was pushed all the way south.

What economic goods and trade?

That's all bullshit.

Back then, commerce in the north was not well developed, and the Ridka Kingdom was actually similar to the Qin Kingdom in Leiner's previous life. It was completely a farming war policy.

There is no need for commodity circulation, and the daily military pay is very simple, meat and food, only these are needed to ensure that the soldiers work hard.

In addition, there are also killing the enemy and granting the land, a large number of self-cultivating farmers and professional troops with strong combat effectiveness, and knights emerge in endlessly.

Coupled with the rich steel production in the north, the Kingdom of Ridka formed a steel army to push the south.

If the royal family is pushed into a hurry now, and the farming and warfare routines of the past are restored, the south will not be able to afford it.

In order to make money, the commercially developed South mostly grows cash crops rather than food crops. In terms of war potential, five Souths are not as good as one royal family.

So the desire of the rebels to negotiate a peace is real.

Now their losses are too great, even if they want to rebel, they will need at least a few years to recuperate.

Frant's move is equivalent to tying Fort Creek and the royal family together.

They can contain the southern lords to increase the risk of rebellion, and at the same time rely on the royal family to prevent the southern lords from shouting at Fort Creek.

After understanding the joints, Reiner couldn't help admiring in his heart. He didn't expect that this damned Sir Frante was actually a woman, and he had such a meticulous mind.

After some discussions, the other lords also understood Frante's intentions.

"I think it's okay... Then we don't have to be on guard against these people in the south!"

"Yeah, let's deal with the matter here as soon as possible!"

But it is different from what the anti-rebel lords mean. Once married, not only will they ambush their undercover agents, but they will not be able to make up for the losses in this war by carve up Fort Creek.

It's about their interests, so they are naturally unwilling.

However, not all people think this way, at least some people are willing to do so, and they are all people who have a certain affection for Frante.

After seeing that Farrant is a woman, she looks even more admirable.

After weighing the pros and cons, Earl Redmara said with a smile: "This is indeed a good idea!"

He didn't care about the ugly expression of Earl Lorrance.

"If this marriage is successful, I can indeed consider providing you with some food and grass to support you to return to the territory, but you must once again express your surrender to the Royal Murander family!"

Earl Llorance glanced at the rebel lords with a sullen expression, reluctantly nodded and said, "Okay, we are willing to surrender again, and the marriage... also agree..."

"Can you give us food now?" Earl Lorance asked.

"Hey, don't worry, there are other conditions!"

Earl Redmara calmly straightened the beard on his chin, and said, "You have to return our captives and the armor lost on the battlefield!"

"That's right! Come back!" The anti-rebel lords shouted loudly.

"This...it's impossible, unless you exchange prisoners, the armor cannot be returned!" Earl Lorance warned with a sullen face: "Don't forget your current situation, the curse of the devil may not be easy to bear, don't attack like us Sorenborg!"

"Tch!" Lena sneered disdainfully.

Walking in front of Earl Lorrance, he looked at him with contempt, and said, "I didn't say that, the combat effectiveness of you guys is really not that good. If I didn't participate in the previous pursuit, you think you are now Can you stand here and speak so arrogantly?"

"How many people can you have left now?" Lai casually stroked his long golden hair, tilted his head slightly and said with a smile, "Ten thousand? Or twenty thousand?"

"I have 5,000 powerful troops under my command. I'm afraid you have already experienced their combat power on the battlefield. In addition, there are also the Earl of Princeton and the Earl of Jollal, which add up to 10,000 troops. More than an all-professional army!"

"Don't tell me, which of your remaining defeated soldiers do you think can defeat the northern warriors like me!" Reiner spat on the ground contemptuously, and left Earl Lorrance leisurely.

Before he left, he casually said: "These days, it's true that any cat or dog dares to stroke a lion's beard!"

Listening to Reiner's ridicule, Earl Lorrance's face turned blue and white, and his expression was very ugly.
