Tales of the Reincarnated Lord Chapter 187: Ultimatum


Chapter 187 Ultimatum

As a messenger of Second Prince, Sinderson Viscount came out of Jill Dusk City on March 15th, because the snow and ice melted on the road and it was difficult to move, and it didn't reach Boulder Castle until March 23. `At this time, Lorist already led a family of armed forces with nearly 40,000 people to start digging and digging soil, and road construction and landfill operations were carried out on the black mud marsh.

The Charade, who also handles complicated administrative affairs at Boulder Castle, hosted Sinderson Viscount. I heard that he came as a messenger of Second Prince, so he asked him to rest for a few days in the post office to send someone to inform Lorist to return.

On the morning of March 25th, Lorist stood in front of the carcass of an ironback crocodile more than ten meters long, and carefully studied the weakness of this behemoth. This ironback crocodile has more than thirty iron bolt inserted in its body. As the largest magical beast encountered by the road building troops in these days, this ironback crocodile still lives alive with more than thirty arrows. Came straight to Chariot camp.

If it is not good luck, a iron bolt penetrates its tail and nails it to the ground less than thirty meters away from Chariot camp. Then this reptile might rush into the Chariot battalion's defensive front. . Until the death of this ironback crocodile, all skilled personnel put their hearts down.

"Lord(s), you see, the cause of this ironback crocodile's death was this bolt that penetrated the jaw and reached the brain. At that time, because the tail was nailed, this magical beast was moving forward, and the entire head was tilted. After exposing the lower jaw, I was killed in a single hit. As for the more than thirty bolts on my body, although this magical beast was severely damaged, it was not fatal, but it aggravated the ferocity. This time, we were lucky and surprised. No risk ... "concluded Marek, the new Chariot soldier Captain.

"We killed dozens of ironback crocodile a few days ago, the largest one was only five meters long, and three or five arrows were killed. We were all too embarrassed, thinking that the famous and dangerous place, Black Mud Marsh, magical beast But that's all, nothing to worry about. I don't think there is such a huge iron ridge crocodile. Now it seems. Our steel ballista is still a bit weak to deal with such a huge iron ridge crocodile. These bolt are inserted in this iron ridge crocodile. The crocodile's body is like a toothpick ... "Els vividly depicts the bolt condition of more than thirty magical beasts inserted in this head.

"The black mud swamp is so large, maybe it is bigger than this ironback crocodile. Lord(s), this head is more than two meters high from already. I remember family records that someone has seen four or five The height of the iron ridge bay crocodile is so high that it is unknown how long it is. It is said to be like a small hill ... "Patt reminded worries.

Lorist nodded: "It is imperative to open the black mud swamp, no matter how difficult we are to overcome, but your worries must also be faced up. To be honest. I did not expect to be able to deal with the Mammoth Golem steel ballista. These iron ridge bay crocodile will still be so difficult. Reidy, you take a trip to see Grandmaster Fellin and ask if he can make a larger batch of steel ballista, specifically to deal with these iron ridge bay crocodile. There is no need to steel ballista like Chariot battalion It ’s strict, it ’s okay to operate it tediously, and it ’s okay to wind it slowly. I want to double the lethality and puncture power ... ”

"Yes, Lord(s), I'll go now." Reidy said to go.

"Okay, Marek. Send someone to pack up this ironback crocodile. Do n’t look at this thing. The meat is still very tender and delicious after you peel it. Tell everyone to eat it at noon. The meat of the iron ridge bay crocodile can be regarded as a shock to everyone. Remember to pack the skins. These crocodile skins are the best choice for our sailors to make leather armor in the future ... "Lorist ordered:" Yes, tell everyone The next step is to be careful. It ’s okay to slow down the project. It ’s safe to pay attention. It ’s okay to close the job early because of poor dark eyes. `To avoid being attacked by these ironback crocodile.”

"Okay, Lord(s), I will warn everyone to be safe." Malek replied.

Jim brought a person here. He is now an Great Captain of Imperial Guard camp: "Lord(s). Charade Knight(s) sent someone to send a message, saying that Second Prince sent Sinderson Viscount who was here last time as a messenger and came to Boulder Castle again. Hope You can go back soon. "

Well? Lorist was stunned, and my heart said that what is this Second Prince doing? Brother already refused him so many times, why didn't he give up? This time he sent a messenger and he was not afraid to be rejected again. I'm too busy to play Aristocrat(s) games with him. Really persevering.

I thought about Lorist and said, "Let that Sinderson Viscount stay for a few more days, I will go back in two days."

...

"I'm very sorry, Henderson Lord Viscount, I have kept you waiting for a long time. It is too busy to get away, sorry.

Lorist didn't rush back to Boulder Castle until March 28. Regardless of the dust, they met Sinderson Viscount for the first time.

"It is understandable, after all, your family must fight the magical beast tide in winter. To be honest, Norton Baron, I have seen those magical beast corpses in Jill Dusk City, and express my personal deep respect for the heroic behavior of your family. Norton Family is indeed called Northern Land angry bear Only the noble family has the courage to fight such a fierce magical beast. "Sinderson Viscount complimented.

"Thank you for your compliment. What is the purpose of Lord Viscount this time?" Lorist was too lazy to be polite and went straight to the door.

"Oh, I came here this time to be entrusted by His Majesty King to bring him a letter for Lord Baron and bring back your reply Lord(s). The letter is here, I think it should be His Majesty King's fight against your family The heroic behavior of magical beast Chaos conveys its condolences. "Sinderson Viscount sent a letter from Second Prince.

Lorist laughed as he received the letter: "This little thing is bothering Lord Viscount to run a trip in person, it is too condescending. In fact, as long as you send an attendant to bring the letter, King entrusted Lord(s) to send the letter is too grand Some. "

Sinderson Viscount laughed at himself: "Lord Baron is too deserving of me. I'm just a title Aristocrat(s). I can't compare with Territory Aristocrat(s). You can run for King."

"Lord Viscount is too humble." Lorist laughed and opened the letter.

Sun! This Second Prince is frustrated and crazy, there must be a mental illness.

Lorist wants to curse, but Sinderson Viscount is in front of him, so he has to remain calm.

Second Prince did not write as many polite words as the last letter in this letter, but made three straightforward demands:

1. Lorist must arrive at Jill Dusk City to see Second Prince before May, and provide enough gifts to show obedience and respect. `

Second, Norton Family must donate 500,000 gold fordes to Second Prince to atone for his previous disrespectful behavior.

Third, starting from this year, Norton Family must provide 10 million kilograms of snow salt to Second Prince as annual supply for free.

At the end of the letter, Second Prince stated that he had no tolerance for Norton Family's repeated rejections of his kindness and against his will already. If Norton Family again rejects these three requirements, then Second Prince will convene Aristocrat(s) of Northern Land to form a coalition army to conquer Boulder Castle. The demise of Norton Family is imminent, and where to go from here? Ask the new Norton Family Leader and Norton Baron to make a decision.

Stupid dreaming, this Second Prince must have been stimulated. Dare to give such an ultimatum to Norton Family. This is almost a declaration of war. It is impossible for Lorist to agree to these three unreasonable demands. What is his reason? Based on the Iberia Kingdom first Legion that was formed only one year ago? Haha ...

Lorist sneered and looked up: "Lord Viscount, are you sure you want to reply?"

Sinderson Viscount nodded: "Yes. This is what His Majesty King has repeatedly instructed. I will take back the reply from Lord Baron ..."

"Okay, wait a moment." Lorist turned to the desk and quickly wrote a reply.

"Tarkel ..." Lorist pulled the call bell and entered the study room at Tarkel outside.

"Lord Viscount came a long way, all the way. You went to get a few magical beast fur as our thanks." Lorist ordered.

"Yes, Lord(s)." Tarkel retreated.

Lorist handed the reply in hand to Sinderson Viscount: "Please forgive me, Lord Viscount, Norton Family is located on the Northern Land side. There is nothing to be frustrated with. A few magical beast fur on behalf of our apologies. Frustrating Lord(s) running around, really Sorry. "

Sinderson Viscount closed the reply happily: "Thank you for the gift of Lord Baron, I actually like magical beast fur."

...

Boom, Second Prince smashed the chair on the desk in front of Sinderson Viscount. It was really irritating. A animal skin paper was spread out on the desk. This is a reply from Lorist. It was written on it. A word, a big word: Oh!

Second Prince flushed with anger. This letter was almost a face naked, naked, naked, plus Second Prince remembered the thick words in the last reply, a feeling of scorn and ridicule sprang up from his heart, so that he no longer controlled Can't hold his anger. Raising the chair in front of Sinderson's Viscount and hitting the reply on the desk ...

The huge impact and the fragmentation of the chair finally made Second Prince awake, glanced at the intact reply written on the desk, and Second Prince felt the anger in his heart burning again. But this time he finally restrained himself, and stared at the flushed eyes and waved to the Henderson Viscount standing in front of him: "Come on, remember not to talk to me ..."

Sinderson Viscount, if pardoned, hurriedly saluted: "Yes. Your Majesty."

Then rattling.

Only the middle-aged man who was furious Second Prince and the attendant posing as Sunderson Viscount went to Boulder Castle.

"Why? Norton Family dare to be so rude? Do not put my King in their eyes? Do they think that the Boulder Castle wall can protect their family Territory intact? Dreaming, I must not let go They, they will pay the price of blood. Only blood can wash away the insults they gave me ... "Second Prince roared in the study while roaring.

Second Prince finally stopped in front of the middle-aged man who had been silent: "Tell me, what did you see on this trip to Boulder Castle?"

Middle-aged man bent down deeply, "Yes, my Majesty."

"As you would expect, the defense of Boulder Castle is very lax. I estimated that there are about 1,500 people in the three squadrons. The three squadrons are responsible for the defense of the two city walls and the central castle. Unfortunately, The thing is, I spent a few days in the Boulder Castle's post hall, and I didn't see the formal soldier(s) of Norton Family in the tavern and other places. They didn't go anywhere except the city walls and military camp. "

Middle-aged people do not know the military reform of Norton Family. He can only look at Norton Family armed forces according to the perspective of Second Prince to form the first Legion scale of the kingdom. He also does not know that Lorist will pull almost all families armed forces after March 16th. Going to the black mud swamp, even the 3,000-horsemen of the battalion of the Orville Keith defending Boulder Castle was also halved in order to rotate after three months.

"I listened to the nearby tavern Boss 唠叨. After the magical beast tide every winter, a large amount of magical beast is still stranded in the wasteland, which seriously affects the land reclamation and spring sowing of the people. So Norton Family armed forces should still be in the wasteland at this time. Driving and eradicating these magical beasts is also a source of their meat. The old man in the tavern said that in previous years, it was basically tossing to May to rest, and this is probably the case this year.

Lorist plans to open the black mud swamp to obtain the estuary, in addition to telling the family Knight(s) and civilian officials. He did not publicize it. Instead, he took the family armed forces directly to the black mud swamp to work, and even the civilians in Territory thought that, as in previous years, they were sweeping the magical beast in the wasteland.

"Your Majesty. I still find the second-line troops of Norton Family, that is, the number of guard teams responsible for vigilance is very small, and those in the warehousing department are about dozens, not even a small team. Behind that Boulder Castle I also built a city, and I have fewer than 300 members who are now called as members of the garrison. And I used the name of visiting the Martyr's Tomb on the hill near the wall behind Panshi Castle, and now the wall behind There is also no defensive ballista on board. It seems that in the battle against the magical beast tide, those defensive ballista suffered a lot of losses ... "

The middle-aged man is an excellent agent, but he does not understand that the Lorist already will change the army to a ten-man squad. For the security battalion who cares for the warehouses, such a small squad establishment is indeed more convenient. One or two It is enough for a small team to guard the warehouse door. There is no need to pull a team of nearly a hundred people to stay at the warehouse door and do nothing. As for the 500-strong garrison in Back Rock, half of them were taken to the Black Mud Marsh. Middle-aged people did not understand this situation.

So in the eyes of middle-aged people, these have become a manifestation of the lack of Norton Family troops. In particular, the absence of a defending city ballista on the wall behind Boulder Castle reflects the embarrassing situation of Norton Family in the face of magical beast tide losses. Therefore, for the rejection of Second Prince given by Norton Family, he tends to think that it is the pride of military merit Territory Aristocrat(s) Aristocratic Family that has been passed down for hundreds of years, and it is not that the strength is so strong that there is no fear.

"Hahaha ..." After listening to the middle-aged's analysis, Second Prince laughed wildly.

"After the harvest of winter wheat in May, I will send troops to conquer Norton Family." Second Prince made a cold decision.

"Just in May, those Northern Land Lord(s) will come to participate in the Northern Land Aristocrat(s) sorority party. At that time, I will announce the disrespect and rebellion of Norton Family. On the grounds that Norton Baron accepted the Count enrollment of Andinak Royal Family without authorization, they will jointly send troops to fight Norton Family."

"Your Majesty. You have to pay attention to Baron Shazin and Count Kenmays. Both of them have been doing business with Norton Family, and their two families have strong forces. You must beware of them both." The middle-aged reminded.

Second Prince nodded: "I have something in mind. When the two of them come to the sorority party, we will keep both of them and force them to send troops to join in the crusade. Baron Shazin has to give me 10,000 Force, isn't Kenmays Family a Legion with 30,000 people, so for the life of Count Kenmays Lord(s), 20,000 is the least.

Baron Felim of Pegasus family. The strength in his hands is not weak, so I have to give me 5,000 troops. Except for Norton Family, Northern Land is currently the strongest among these three companies. This time, no one wants to let the side watch the excitement. However, Baron Felim has always been respectful. If this performance is good, I may be promoted to his title ... "

"His Majesty has a high opinion." The middle-aged man complimented: "So how many troops are your Majesty ready to use to fight Norton Family?"

Second Prince pondered for a moment and said: "This time is actually a great time to show off Wang Li, and also let those Northern Land buns to see the powerful military power of the first Legion in the kingdom. The first Legion dispatched 50,000 people, leaving a thousand people on guard Big camp, the two remaining brigades are responsible for logistics heavy transportation. "

"Your Majesty, deal with a small Norton Family, is this a big deal?" the middle-aged asked.

"You do n’t understand. Norton Family is not in my eyes. We do n’t need to attack Boulder Castle. We can win without siege for half a year. Without outside food input, I have to see what Norton Family feeds. More than 100,000 leaders. I will not be so stupid, let the first Legion of the kingdom to attack the solid Boulder Castle, and cause damage in vain.

To dispatch the first Legion of the kingdom, the main purpose is to suppress the family armed forces of Baron Shazin and Count Kenmays, and force them to carry out siege battles for us. With the power of the Kingdom's first Legion, I would like to see which Northern Land Aristocrat(s) still has impertinence. I hope that after the victory of the battle against Norton Family, Northern Land can settle down and become a stronghold that can provide me with a steady stream of troops and food. "Second Prince said.

"Your Majesty is Bright!"
