My Wife Is Great Fief Lord

Chapter 419 Going alone

Because of the lessons learned from the eight castles, Gervais’s next step for these small castles can be crushing dry weeds and smashing rotten wood.

Gervais is the next stop on the city wall, and then shows the eight noble descendants he has captured, without even having to say his self-destruct name, the noble descendants above know what to do, darling Ran off the city wall, obediently surrender.

Although several Baron Forts along the route of First Prince saw the Thunder Knights gallop past the night before, the Thunder Knights had nothing to do with them.

These noble descendants were stationed at the castle under the orders of their father, so naturally they could not escape in advance.

Nobles can be cunning, by fair means or foul, but in terms of combat, they must face it bravely.

Even if they surrender and become captives in the end, they are only qualified heirs who have experienced baptism in the city and experienced blood rain.

“Aiya, Phoenix, you’re here too!”

“Aiya! Babette, you’re here too!”

The next time , such a strange greeting sounded from Gervais’ captive regiment.

If one or two people were taken prisoner by Gervais, it would be absolutely miserable and humiliating.

But they now have more than a dozen people, and they are all about to form a squad, but everyone calms down.

As the saying goes, the law does not blame the public. Even if you become a prisoner, when the time comes you will not be punished too much in front of your own father.

After all, it’s not that we are too incompetent, it’s that the enemy is too strong. Haven’t you seen more than a dozen castles being breached by this Viscount Gervais?

They also have an account in front of their father.

……

Gervais is in full swing, capturing the descendants of these nobles like cutting leeks, but the minor nobles in Mai Leaf City are not calm.

“What’s going on here? Is that Gervais a Golden Knight? If this goes on, all of our children will be captured by him!”

More than a dozen The vassal of the Jinmai family sat at the dinner table speechlessly, complaining while eating lunch.

“Not a golden Knight, but he has fifty trebuchets!”

“That’s too shameless! Fifty trebuchets! All my castle city walls It’s smashed!”

The person who spoke was Bob Baron, the father of Barbett, and the most saddened among these small nobles were him and Baine Baron.

For although the sons of the other lords were captured, their castles were not attacked, only his Cullen Castle and Bain Baron’s Bain Fort were smashed by Gervais with trebuchets.

It takes a lot of energy and money to repair this castle.

“Oh! This Weiss is indeed shameless, and the ransom is 800 gold coins, not a single penny! In previous years, the ransom of Baron’s children was 200 gold coins!”

“Oh! p>

“Yeah! It’s too shameless! We’ve been saving 800 gold coins for years! I really want to go back now and grab that Gervais directly!”

“You haven’t gone back now. Uh, I heard that Gervais’ marching route doesn’t seem to be fixed.”

“Didn’t the ex-heavenly thunder Knight regiment go to attack Jean dukedom First Prince’s camp! They even sent scouts to mine when they came back. Investigating near the castle, I want to find the trace of Gervais and rescue our children.”

“As a result, Gervais did not know where to hide. I can come back.”

“oh!”

All the vassals sighed.

These people don’t know, the reason why Thunder Knight couldn’t find Gervais’ team, at that time Gervais was about to assassinate the First Prince, so Ike and the others hid deep in the woods, of course it was impossible to be killed. Find.

……

After Gervais took over several castles on the First Prince route, he felt that the number of hostages in his hands was not too many, and he might exchange some weight for Caroline. Insufficient, so he quickly went to the route of other families.

Before leaving the route of First Prince, Gervais specially asked the people in the castle to leave a message. If you see a team of Rose Banners coming, please help to inform them and let them go to the front battlefield to gather up. those corpses.

The little aristocrat of the Wynton family gave Gervais a lot of feelings, so Gervais decided to let the Jones family help gather the bones.

Burn those little nobles into ashes, and bring them back if you can, and other ordinary soldiers can only bury them on the spot.

For a period of time, Gervais has captured several noble descendants, including two captured on the route of the Jin Family, and one from each of the other three count families.

Since then, Gervais has finally collected 20 noble descendants, and if converted into ransoms, it is as high as 16,000 gold coins.

This is a very terrifying figure, and it will take several years for some weaker count families to save enough money.

……

After closing, Gervais took his team of about 200 people moved towards Mai Leaf City.

Gervais is not going to meet the king and the big count’s team first, because the ‘war fruits’ he harvests from other families cannot be placed on the surface, even if others have guesses, but as long as there is no evidence , that would do nothing for him.

But if he took the initiative to expose it, he would definitely not be able to walk around.

And another reason is that since she intends to try to rescue Caroline, she needs to act quickly. Although the identity of this woman is there, it will inevitably change over time.

On the way to Mai Leaf City, Gervais also ordered his subordinates to take off their armors and weapons, leaving only Ike and Laurie more than 20 people to put on the armors seized from Baiyan City. arms.

After all, Jean dukedom’s army is still behind, Gervais’ entire group is now heading towards Mai Leaf City, it can be regarded as a single army, it is always more convenient to change into Alban dukedom’s armor, and Gervais also Think about the identity of your team in advance.

When he passed the last castle, he did not choose to attack or persuade him to surrender, because that was the attack route of the Wynton family, and he could never strengthen the business of the Lord of the North.

But Gervais also asked for the name and surname of the lord of the castle.

…

“Hello! It’s your lord, we are the Potters, Wells Potter Baron is my father, we heard Jean dukedom There is a Gervais who is very difficult to deal with, so pack up in advance and go to Mai Leaf City to find my father, otherwise if we are captured by that Gervais, we will have to pay a ransom of 800 gold coins!”

“Oh, the son of Potter Baron!”

“That Gervais is indeed very difficult to deal with, we have come across more than a dozen castle stewards while patrolling around here in the past few days, all of them are Go to Mai Leaf City and report the fact that the heirs of the nobles have been captured by Gervais!”

This is a squad of more than ten Rangers Squad who met Gervais and the others under the leadership of a Bronze Knight.

Seeing that there are more than 200 Gervais, a large number of carriages, and wearing the armor of Alban Dukedom, the Ranger Squad did not leave immediately, looking for support, but cautiously stepped forward to ask, wanting to Identify Gervais and the others.

Because they are Rangers themselves, they are most aware of the specific movements of Jean dukedom’s army. Jean dukedom’s army is still hundreds of miles away, and it will take several days to get here.

Although the entire group of Gervais has many people, there are only less than 30 people wearing armor.

Now listening to Gervais’ explanation, this team of Rangers believed Gervais’s statement.

Gervais was originally seventeen or eighteen years old, and of course he would not reveal himself when he said that he was the son of a certain Baron.

“Yeah! I also listened to the words of the castle steward, and then I left the castle with my stuff to go to Mai Leaf City. Otherwise, when the time comes, I will definitely be captured by that Gervais.”

“But I’m escaping like this, I don’t know if my father will be angry when the time comes.”

Gervais agreed, with some lingering fears, and then thought of escaping Punishment, his face was a little depressed.

“oh!”

The Ranger Captain shook the head, sighed.

He also knew that the lords were strict with their children, although that Gervais was not something that these small castles could defend against, and the Baron child in front of him could be regarded as saving money for his father, but after all, it was considered an abandoned castle. If they escape, punishment is inevitable, and in serious cases, it is more likely that they will be deprived of their inheritance rights.

Although the heirs of eldest son can get everything in the family in the future, they also have to bear the corresponding responsibilities.

Like those second sons, as long as they didn’t take the initiative, they would have gone to Mai Leaf City with other family members for refuge, but these elder sons had to stay at the castle and maintain the majesty of the castle!

Seeing that Gervais was in a low mood, the Ranger Captain stopped talking, said goodbye politely to Gervais, and continued to patrol elsewhere.
