Rise In Calradia

"Master Byron is coming soon, Elaine, so which side are you on?"

Outside the town of Pegunde, Fatis and Eleon rode together on horseback, facing each other at a distance of only two meters. Behind them, there is a fully armed force, waiting for the command of their allegiance.

It was supposed to be a scene where a friend met, but now it was like facing an enemy on the battlefield. Elaine rode on the horse, took the Byron letter that Fattis handed him, read the content of the letter carefully, and did not say anything for a while. The armies of both sides also continue to maintain this stalemate, and the air is filled with tension. As long as Fatis or Eleon takes a move, the crossbowmen who have already put their crossbows on the string will move towards The opponent shot a deadly arrow.

In the end, Elaine confirmed and put away the letter, and the nerves of the troops on both sides also jumped to the extreme. Everything that will happen next will depend on Elaine's next choice. Yamila, who was also in the team, clasped his hands tightly and stared at Elaine, praying that the gods would not let Elaine do anything unusual.

"Since the Lord Baron is about to return, then my task of representing his territory is over. As a loyal knight, I will welcome the return of the lord whom I have been loyal to." As everyone watched, Eleon looked calm. He handed the letter back to Fatis and bowed his body to bow. He moved, and the troops behind him also put down their weapons.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and Jamila almost cried with excitement, but Fattis, Desaivi and others looked at Elaine with a puzzled look. The other party didn’t mention anything, so refreshingly. It makes them feel very strange to hand over the territory under their control.

In fact, their impression of Elaine is not wrong. He did consider completely relying on the prince or using the existing land and troops in his hands to negotiate conditions with Fatis. As long as it works properly, then Byron has to admit him even if he comes back. Special status. But he also knows how to examine Doudu. He has his own intelligence network. Although it can't compare with the intelligence network operated by Kress, the well-known fact of Byron's return from the north can still be found out. Soon after Byron's letter arrived in Serendil, Elaine received the same news. Baron Von Byron has led more than 700 heavily armed soldiers back to his territory, accepting everything in his territory. And it is not difficult for Eleon to guess that if he can return so smoothly, it must be that King Harous acquiesced in his behavior.

As a result, Elaine's situation has become very embarrassing. If he continues to use the resources in his hands as a bargaining chip, according to Byron's personality, it is more likely that he will lead soldiers to enter the prestige. He compared the strengths of the two sides. Byron’s troops plus the troops under the control of Fatis had thousands of people, fully armed and morale high, and the local people were more inclined to support him, and he could not be his opponent. . If he turns to Byron now, at least he can still retain the fiefdom and knighthood of the village outside Veluga, because it was said that Byron was dead before, so his behavior is not all betrayal when he is away. , He believes that Byron will let him go after weighing the gains and losses.

So he seized the best opportunity. When Fattis showed Byron's letter and made it clear that he would return to Byron's side, he accepted the offer very formally, so that he behaved like A vassal who took care of the territory for the lord during his absence. As for the transaction with Prince Harau, it is natural that the other party is the heir to the royal family, and it is better not to offend without Byron's clear instructions.

Although there are many loopholes, but the problem can be solved by peaceful means, the heroes on both sides rarely maintain a tacit understanding, and enter Pegunde as if nothing has happened. The troops on both sides also cheered and put down their weapons and merged. As a team, settled in the town very harmoniously.

Fatis discovered that the peony flag that Byron had erected when he first entered Pegunde is still hanging there today. Elaine did not leave his wife behind after taking power, or to show the prince. Set up the royal black lion flag. Part of the reason for this is that Eleon is indeed grateful for Byron who made him reach the status he is today, and the chivalry after the oath made him still see himself as Byron's successor rather than his replacement. The other reason is very real. He must consider that Byron suddenly returns to the receiving territory one day, he has to take precautions.

The dispute with Pegunde has come to an end, and the town is now back under Byron's rule, even though the two who actually control the town are Fatis and Eleon. And after receiving the news that Byron is about to return, Rolf, who has been drinking and hunting in the eastern territories, also decisively chose Byron, who is stronger than before, and rushed to Pegunde with some relatives to see him. Lun expressed loyalty.

If Byron knew about this, he would probably laugh happily, praise Fattis and the others for their loyalty, and would appease Elaine and Rolf. Normally, he is already close to Serendil, his first fief, and he will know these news soon.

But at this time he was in trouble, a big trouble that had to be solved with sufficient force. It seemed that Rhodok had already received the information. Within a few days, Fatis took Serendil's garrison to the south, and within a few days, the troops of Fort Kulmar had already arrived in Serendil's territory. Judging from the scouts under his men, this unit is not many, but it is very elite. Half of the troops with less than two hundred people are senior spearmen and skilled crossbowmen. It seems that they want to use a few elites to take advantage of Surin. Deere's defensive emptiness quickly took the town. But only with this point, it is impossible for the troops to arrive later~www.NovelMTL.com~Byron is sure that the Rhodoks have larger troops elsewhere.

Before he got home, the robbers had come to the door, how could Byron let them go.

He immediately ordered the troops to stay behind and prepare for battle. The Nord pirates who had not been killed for a while heard Byron's order and immediately cheered, and the Vickia and mercenary troops also took up their weapons without saying a word. Wearing full armor, the cavalry also brought their horses.

Not long after, they found the Rhodok army. In order to prevent the cavalry from being shot by a crossbow, Byron launched an attack from the front of the infantry and pirate forces under his command. The cavalry cut off the opponent's retreat from the back, or attacked their flanks and rear when the opponent stuck to the formation.

The Rhodok troops on the march were taken aback by the sudden appearance of the army, especially those pirates who were clamoring for the north, which made them wonder what was going on. If the plan was revealed, it would be Serendil. The garrison is right. Where did the Nords and Vickias come from? Although puzzled, they still rely on their professional qualities to quickly build a spear phalanx, and crossbowmen also took out heavy crossbows and started filling them. It was too late to retreat, and only when facing the enemy head-on would there be a ray of life.
