Fort Kaval vestibule,

Pedi, who had not participated in the meeting of the nobles for nearly two months, returned to the throne of lordship on the high platform of the hall.

His arrival did not make the nobles who participated in the meeting feel happy, the conflict and confrontation four months ago seemed to have happened yesterday, and the final fate of Bell Cade and the eighteen lords made these nobles dare not breathe.

The birth of the police station and the establishment of the inner hall have made the meeting of the nobles the stewards of the Kru Domain, and for a whole hour, all of them are discussing trivial matters.

The nobles were surprised to find that their young lord had suddenly become very talkative, at least, they had gotten along very well during the hour-long meeting.

Towards the end of the meeting, Pei Di also deliberately stepped down from the high platform to communicate with the nobles at close range.

"Ladies and gentlemen, you owe you a share of the prosperity of Crewe City. Peddy's voice was high, "The Reagan family will always remember you for this work." ”

The nobles present were all smart people, and although they were very happy when they heard the rare praise from Pedi's mouth, their hearts began to beat drums, and they all secretly prayed that Pedi would not make a request to embarrass them.

"My father taught me from a young age that the Reagan family and you are interdependent, and I agree with that. Satisfied with the performance of the nobles present, Pedi looked around and continued, "But someone thinks otherwise, he openly tore up the covenant we made hundreds of years ago a few hours ago. ”

"My lord, you just need to tell us who this man is?"

"Pull him out and hang him!"

"The covenant of the ancestors is sacred and solemn, and no one can blaspheme. ”

Although the nobles present did not know who the person Pei Di was talking about, it was still necessary to make a necessary statement, after all, this did not need a copper.

"Bane Lockton of Fort Harrynn!" said Paddy, a name on his face, and to the astonished, shocked, or bewildered expressions of the nobles, he continued, "Bane Lockton has declared war on us, and we must respond. ”

This time, the nobles were no longer in a hurry to take a stand.

"My lord, when did this happen?" said an old nobleman's voice, which seemed so abrupt in the dead silence of the hall.

"This morning!" Pedi knew the old nobleman, his name was Merlot-Tyretes, he had the title of Barony of the Court of Kavarburg, had served as deputy commander of the Knights' Guard of Kavarburg, and was now one of the delegates of the Council of Nobles, and had a certain prestige in the army.

Pedy's gaze fell on the old nobleman, looking at the other party's dissatisfied, wrinkled old face, and said in a deep voice: "Last night, Sir Glick was stabbed to death on the territory of Bane-Lockton..."

Baron Merlot's face changed, and he forced the shock in his heart to say to Pedi: "This is a very serious matter, you should listen to Viscount Bane-Lockton's explanation." ”

"You want to hear Bene Lockton's explanation?"

"Why not?"

"Haha!" Pedi laughed, then said in a cold voice, "The nobles of the Herion Realm claim that Ser Grek and his two guards ransacked the entire Sister Realm, and were stabbed to death in the field by the enraged lords. ”

"This can't be!" said the middle-aged nobleman beside Baron Merlot, "even if I believed that a sow would have a calf in her belly, I would not have Sir Glick do such a thing, although I don't like him very much!"

"Is this Bane-Lockton's rhetoric?" Baron Merrot looked at Pedi.

"The tens of thousands of troops organized by the nobles of the Herien Lords are invading the northern official roads at this time, and those nobles claim to want justice for the people of the Sister Lords!" Pedi didn't like Baron Merlot's way of questioning, and he said coldly, "Do you want to intercede for Bane Lockton?"

"Are they crazy, how dare they attack the Guards?"

"Could it be true that Bane Lockton wants to learn from Nishizawa Dewen for independence!"

"There may be a misunderstanding here, and we should immediately send an emissary to communicate with Viscount Bane. ”

"Fart, Sir Glick went to Fort Helion to negotiate on behalf of Fort Kavar, but he's now a corpse!"

The quarrel of the surrounding nobles disrupted the conversation between Pedi and Baron Merlot, and the old nobleman looked at Pedi seriously, his face expressionless, but inwardly shocked by the speed of events. As a veteran, Merrot knows exactly what it takes to prepare for war.

So, if the news of Herien's invasion is true,

Well, it is clear that the other party has been prepared!

"Have you made up your mind?" asked the old nobleman solemnly.

"Of course!" Pedi nodded, "According to the laws of Crewe, oath-breakers should be hanged... Bane-Lockton is clearly not going to be tied down, and a war is inevitable. ”

Hearing this, Merrot puffed up his chest and gave a military salute, "The Terrets will keep their covenant and join your army. ”

The middle-aged nobleman beside the old nobleman immediately followed suit, "My lord, you just need to tell me the day of the expedition. ”

"It is our honor that the oath will be carried out to the end. ”

"We will follow in your footsteps, my lord. ”

"Crewe has never had one voice... That's your voice, Mistress Pedi. ”

The aristocrats have expressed their positions.

Pedi laughed merrily, "I'm going to issue a proclamation in the name of Fort Kawar to Kru Collar about the crimes of the Bane-Lockton rebellion, and you can sign your names to this proclamation if you wish." ”

As he spoke, he beckoned to the nearby Chief Herman, and as soon as he spoke, the Chief Herman stepped forward with a circle of gold-rimmed parchment that he had prepared, and on the fine paper was densely written about Bane-Lockton's crimes.

Baron Merrot didn't think much of it, he was the first to step forward, pick up the charcoal pen in Herman's hand, sign his name, and take out the family seal he had with him and stamped it.

"A wise decision, Baron. Chief Herman looked at the signatures and seals on them, smiled and said, "The name of the Tyrethes family will be sung throughout Crewe with this announcement. ”

Pedi smiled at everything in front of him, and his approach, though coercive, at least proved that the Reagan family was more threatening in the eyes of the aristocracy than the Lockton family in Hereenburg.

Sir Greck's stabbing to death at Fort Herien was something Pedi did not expect, and he did not want to personally participate in the war with Fort Herien, after all, such a meal was too ugly.

But now, Sir Gorrik's death has left him confronted with the problems of the Fort Herien area!

When everyone signed their names, Pedi said, "Guys, we have a month to gather troops. ”

"My lord, with the current mobilization capacity of Crewe City, we can assemble a force of more than 20,000 men in ten days!" Baron Merrot suggested, "If Viscount Bane-Lockton really intends to rebel, our quick counterattack is the best option. ”

"I don't want an army that is ineffective. Pedi shook his head, "I need to gather all the retired sergeants, manor knights, oath knights, family knights, and court knights of various castles in the Crewe Territory, these experienced warriors are the key to the victory or defeat of a battle!" His voice was serious, "I want to tell the nobles and knights of the entire Crewe Territory that I am going to wage a war, a war against the monarch and the rebels!"

The middle-aged nobleman beside Baron Merrot blushed with excitement, "This will definitely be a great war, honor will surely fall on us, and the goddess will bless us." ”

Pedi smiled happily when he heard the nobleman's words, and he looked around at the people around him, "Our assembly point is in the eastern fortress of the Ukalo Mountain Forest, where the knights of Wren will be waiting for you. ”

...

While conflict broke out in the Northern Highlands, and Pedi was in Kawar Fort to discuss the gathering of a heavy army to quell the rebellion, Edwin Feller and Darek Danny met at a noble manor near a farm not far from the town of Mogg, southeast of the Kumar Fortress.

After an hour of pleasantries between the two of them in a spacious hall over red wine, Sir Edwin mentioned the purpose of his visit, "Mistress Pedy, let me bring you a message. ”

"What?"

"Your ability to pretend to be confused will even be deceived by you. Edwin couldn't help but sarcastically, "The police department has been checking on you every day lately, don't you understand what Master Pedi means?"

Daisiri raised his glass and smiled, "But I'd like to hear what Baron Petdy has to say to me." ”

"He's telling you to fuck off!"

"That's it?"

"That's it!"

Derick frowned, "I thought I was still of some use...", he put down his glass, "I didn't expect to be blasted out directly." ”

"Lord Pedi has a long-term view than you and me, he doesn't care about the benefits you brought to him in Crewe, he's even more..."Edwin's voice became smaller and smaller, "Nobles value honor, lords value prestige, but everyone likes gold coins, Master Pedi cares about his rights and prestige!"

"That's because the Reagan family is already rich!" Daisy revealed envy, "look at everything he has in his hands... Endless gold coins, countless knights loyal to him, countless nobles willing to fight for him... His father was the Prime Minister of the Empire and his sister the Empress of the Empire. ”

"But you didn't choose him!" Edwin smiled, "You don't have the right to blame Master Pedy, he gave you a choice. ”

"I've been hesitating, the choice between dreams and reality is always painful!"

"Is it your dream to lead the Elok?" Edwin sniffed the wine and put down his glass, "Before I was thirty, I used to think I was the protagonist of this world, but the reality made me understand that I was not even a supporting role!" He stared at Derrick, "Are you still dreaming of your protagonist?"

"All I can say is that our pursuits are different. ”

Do you really believe that there will be a truly free and equal country? The Chamber of Commerce Alliance will not work at all, and even if you succeed, you will only be a puppet of the elves!"

"I just want to practice whether or not what I'm looking for exists!"

"Everything you do and say is the funniest joke in the world. Edwin's tone grew colder, "Think of the people who died in your practice, what's fair about them?" he stared at Derrick, "Don't cover up your ambitions with flashy reasons. ”

"You won't understand. ”

"Yes, I don't understand, I'm just here to bring you a word today. Edwin stood up, "My words have been brought, Baron Pedi has given you half a month... Oh, by the way, half an hour before I came here, I got word that Master Pedi had persuaded the nobles of Crewe to declare war on Bane-Lockton in Fort Herien!" He took two steps towards the door and turned back to ask, "You should know what happened this morning on the Northern Road, right?"
